A method for controlling a laundry treating apparatus includes an air supplying step of supplying heated air to the drum through the heat exchange part and a first motion executing step executed while the air supplying step is in progress. The first motion executing step alternately executes a first acceleration mode of rotating the drum at an rpm inducing a centrifugal force equal to or greater than 1G along one of a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction and a first deceleration mode of rotating the drum at an rpm inducing a centrifugal force smaller than 1G in a direction equal to a rotational direction set for the first acceleration mode.

A laundry appliance includes a processing chamber positioned within a cabinet. A blower delivers process air through an airflow path and through the processing chamber. An accessory port is positioned on an exterior surface of the cabinet and coupled with the airflow path. The accessory port selectively redirects the process air through an accessory airflow path to define accessory process air. An accessory tool that selectively engages the accessory port to define the accessory airflow path.

A laundry treatment apparatus is disclosed. The laundry treatment apparatus includes a cabinet, a tub arranged in the cabinet, a drum arranged in the tub and formed of a metal material, and an induction module configured to inductively heat the drum, wherein the induction module includes a coil formed by winding a wire, and a base housing including a base body arranged on the tub, and a fixing rib arranged on the base body to fix coil, wherein the wire is drawn into the base body in one direction, wound around the fixing rib, and drawn out of the base body in the same direction.

A clothes treatment apparatus includes a cooling water pipe that is placed within a condensing duct to condense humidity contained in a circulating air current. The latent heat generated from the condensation of humidity causes the temperature of the cooling water in the cooling water pipe to rise. A thermoelectric pump mechanism collects heat from the higher-temperature cooling water and uses it in heating the circulating air.

The present disclosure relates to a laundry dryer. The laundry treating apparatus includes a water supply connector for connecting an internal water supply pipe, a direct water pipe, and a water supply inlet pipe with each other. The water supply connector may include a connector main body and a connector backflow-preventing valve that is coupled into the connector main body to prevent water from flowing back toward an supply assembly, thereby preventing the water from flowing back to a water source and improving assembleability by mounting a check valve by only assembling a connector with a pipe.

A dryer appliance and a method of operating the same are provided. In one aspect, the dryer appliance includes a drum rotatably mounted within a cabinet. The drum defines a chamber that is in fluid communication with a conditioning system of the dryer appliance. The conditioning system heats air circulating therethrough and removes water from the process air. A collection tank collects the water and a drain pump removes water from the collection tank intermittently when the water reaches a predetermined level. The frequency at which the drain pump removes water from the collection tank is utilized to determine the moisture extraction rate indicative of the rate at which moisture is removed from the clothes. The moisture extraction rate is utilized to control the mass flow rate of refrigerant in a heat pump sealed system or the process air flow rate through the closed loop air circuit.

The present invention relates to a method for controlling a clothes treatment apparatus that comprises: a first chamber in which clothes are accommodated; a support part which is provided in the first chamber and in which the clothes are held; a driving unit for making the support part reciprocate along the width direction of the first chamber; a circulation duct for drawing air out from inside the first chamber and then resupplying the air into the first chamber; a heat exchange part for sequentially dehumidifying and heating the air that has flowed into the circulation duct; a fan provided inside the circulation duct; a moisture supply unit for supplying moisture into the first chamber; a sensing unit for measuring at least one among the concentration of dust and the concentration of odor particles contained in the air in the first chamber; and a display unit on which information is displayed.

A clothes care apparatus comprises a main body including a clothes care compartment, a clothes support member disposed in the clothes care compartment and including an air supply port provided to allow air to flow therein, a blower configured to form an airflow to be supplied to the clothes support member, and a nozzle provided to guide the airflow formed by the blower to the clothes support member, and including an airflow outlet disposed to face the air supply port, the airflow outlet provided to supply an airflow to an inside and an outside of the clothes support member.

This disclosure relates to a clothing treatment device comprising: a cabinet having a first lateral panel and a second lateral panel which are disposed so as to face each other, an upper panel and a lower panel which connect the first lateral panel and the second lateral panel and respectively form the upper surface and the floor surface, a first rear panel which connects the first lateral panel, the second lateral panel and the upper panel and forms the rear surface, and a second rear panel which connects the first lateral panel and the second lateral panel and is positioned below the first rear panel; a first base having a front panel which is fixed to the first lateral panel, the second lateral panel, the upper panel and the lower panel and forms the front surface of the cabinet and an input port which is provided through the front panel.

The present disclosure relates to a clothing treating apparatus comprising: an outer case which includes a first opening formed at the front side thereof; an inner case which is provided inside the outer case and has a space formed therein to receive clothes; an inner case bottom surface which forms the bottom of the inner case; a first penetrating part which extends through the inner case bottom surface; and a first machinery room forming surface which forms a machinery room disposed under the inner case and separated from the inner case, and provides a holding surface that protrudes to enable a steam nozzle to be installed thereon.
