Title: Injoo Lee and a Smarter Clothes-Drying Control Method.
Introduction
Injoo Lee is an inventor based in Suwon, South Korea, and works at Samsung Electronics Ltd. His patent work includes a clothes-dryer control method designed to adapt drying to the characteristics and moisture level of a load.
Latest Patents
Lee is associated with 1 patent: “Clothes Dryer and Method for Controlling the Same.” The invention describes a dryer with a drum, a weight-detection sensor, a moisture-content sensor, and a controller. After an initial drying period, the controller uses the load’s weight and residual moisture information to assign the items to a category. It then monitors moisture reduction against category-specific reference times and thresholds, determines the appropriate drying level, and starts a main drying cycle using the corresponding control conditions.
Career Highlights
Lee’s listed patent focuses on responsive drying control. By considering both load weight and moisture reduction, the method aims to tailor the main drying cycle to the detected load category and drying level.
Collaborations
The provided information identifies Gawon Lee and Sangoh Yoo as Lee’s coworkers. It does not specify whether they collaborated with him on this patent.
Conclusion
Injoo Lee’s patent describes a sensor-guided approach to clothes drying that adjusts the main cycle according to load characteristics and measured moisture reduction.
