A clothes treatment apparatus (100) and a control method thereof are disclosed. The clothes treatment apparatus (100) includes a cabinet (1) closed by a door (3) and an accommodation space (2) provided in the cabinet (1), consisting for example of a first accommodation space (21) and a second accommodation space (23), wherein a mechanism chamber (25) is provided. The clothes treatment apparatus (100) includes a fixed nozzle device (4) comprising heated air supply holes (41), steam supply holes (43) and detergent supply holes (45) and a moving nozzle device (5) which reciprocates along a guide part (51). Clothes are held by a hanger (7) in the accommodation space (2).

The invention relates to a laundry treating appliance and method for controlling the operation of the laundry treating appliance by determining the surface area of the laundry based on image data of the laundry.

A household appliance for treating at least one item according to at least one cycle of operation includes a treating chamber for receiving the at least one item for treatment according to the at least one cycle of operation, a treating chemistry dispenser receiving a unit dose container having an electrically conductive element, a physical alteration element located proximate to the treating chemistry dispenser and operable to physically alter at least a portion of the electrically conductive element and a sensor for sensing the physical alteration.

A laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet, a water tub provided inside the cabinet, and a detergent box to supply detergent to the water tub. The detergent box includes a housing connected to communicate with the water tub, a drawer having a plurality of detergent storage spaces and received in the housing to be drawn out, and a distribution unit to distributively supply wash water into the plurality of detergent storage spaces. The housing may include a through portion communicating with the water tub, a horizontal partition protruding above the through portion and disposed in a left and right direction, and a wash water guide unit to guide the wash water so that a plurality of wash water movement paths is defined at a front region of the horizontal partition. Accordingly, detergent residue at an inner front region of the housing can be suppressed.

A laundry or dryer appliance may include a cabinet, a drum, a transmitter power coil, and an additive dispensing assembly. The transmitter power coil may be mounted to the cabinet proximal to the door. The additive dispensing assembly may include a fluid pump, a receiver power coil, and a dispenser nozzle. The fluid pump may motivate a volume of a liquid additive therefrom for an additive mist to the drum. The receiver power coil may be in selective wireless communication with the transmitter power coil to receive an electromagnetic field therefrom. The receiver power coil may be operably coupled to the fluid pump. The dispenser nozzle may be directed toward the drum downstream from the fluid pump to guide the volume of the liquid additive into the space defined by the drum.

The present disclosure concerns a method performed by at least one device, including: acquiring location data indicative of a location of a device which may be placed in a liquid- and/or gas-carrying household appliance; determining treatment chamber data indicative of a conclusion as to whether or not the at least one device is placed in a treatment chamber of the household appliance, the treatment chamber data being determined at least partially based on the acquired location data; and outputting or causing the output of the determined treatment chamber data. Furthermore, the present disclosure concerns a device and a system.

A washing machine may reflect a preference of a user regarding use of an additive. The washing machine may include an additive supplying part coupled to a washing tub to supply an additive to the washing tub, a concentration sensor configured to sense a scent concentration of an additive measured in the washing tub, and a controller configured to switch the washing tub to an additional laundry cycle mode according to the scent concentration sensed by the concentration sensor.

A method of operating a dryer appliance includes predicting a removal point at which a laundry load will be removed from the tub of the dryer, the removal point being a certain amount of time after the completion of a main drying operation, determining a length of time required to perform a conditioning operation on the laundry load, determining a start time for the conditioning operation, and implementing a responsive action at the start time.

An electronic device and a control method therefor are provided. The clothing management device includes a sensor, a deodorizing device for removing a contaminant source of clothing received in the clothing management device, a perfuming device for spraying aroma onto clothing, and a processor for, when a user command for managing clothing is received, controlling the deodorizing device to perform deodorization for removing a contaminant source of the clothing, and, when it is determined that the concentration of the contaminant source in the clothing management device sensed by the sensor is less than or equal to a preconfigured threshold value, controlling the deodorizing device to stop the deodorization and controlling the perfuming device to perfume the clothing by using aroma.
