A clothes processing apparatus includes a drum, a circulation flow path for circulating air from a frontal-side opening of the drum to a rear-side opening of the drum, and a base cabinet in a lower portion of the drum to provide a space for components. The base cabinet includes a base flow path part of the circulation flow path in which an evaporator, a condenser, and a circulation fan are disposed sequentially towards a rear of the base flow path part, a drum motor mounting part which is disposed at one side in front of the base flow path part, and in which a drum motor for generating a driving force for rotating the drum is mounted, and a compressor mounting part which is disposed at one side behind the base flow path part, and in which a compressor for generating compressed air for heat exchange is mounted.

Clothes processing apparatus

A dryer includes a heat pump system provided as a heat source for heating air supplied to a drum. The dryer includes a controller configured to perform operations that include selecting one of a plurality of operation modes in which initial driving frequencies are different from one another and inputting a drying start command to the dryer by a user, checking an outer temperature and comparing the outer temperature with a preset reference temperature T, performing the operation mode selected by the user, in a case where the outer temperature is equal to or more than the reference temperature T, performing an operation mode in which the initial driving frequency of the compressor is the highest of the plurality of operation modes, in a case where the outer temperature is less than the reference temperature T.

Control method of clothes dryer

An apparatus for controlling a clothes treating apparatus, the clothes treating apparatus, and a method for controlling the clothes treating apparatus configured to sterilize an evaporator by stopping an operation of a compressor under a specific condition to allow a surface temperature of the evaporator to be at or above a reference temperature due to thermal equilibrium caused by the stopping of the operation of the compressor.

Apparatus for controlling clothes treating apparatus, clothes treating apparatus and method for controlling clothes treating apparatus

The present specification relates to a clothes treatment apparatus and a control method therefor, the apparatus comprising, in order to improve an air flow mechanism for circulating air to a drum, the drum for accommodating objects to be treated, an air circulation path connected to the drum, a circulation fan, which is provided on the downstream side of a heat exchanger inside the air circulation path and generates suction force so as to suction the air of the air circulation path and supply same to the drum, a water collection part formed at the lower side of the drum so as to collect condensate water, and a trap having a bottom surface that is lower than a peripheral area in the water collection part so as to allow the condensate water to gather therein.

Clothes treatment apparatus and control method therefor

A control method of a dryer according to an embodiment of the present invention in which a heat pump system is provided as a heat source for heating air supplied to a drum includes selecting one of a plurality of operation modes in which initial driving frequencies are different from one another and inputting a drying start command to the dryer by a user; checking an outer temperature and comparing the outer temperature with a preset reference temperature T by a control unit; performing the operation mode selected by the user by the control unit, in a case where the outer temperature is equal to or more than the reference temperature T; performing an operation mode in which the initial driving frequency of the compressor is the highest of the plurality of operation modes, in a case where the outer temperature is less than the reference temperature T.

A dryer, including a cabinet with an entry hole, a door being installed in the entry hole, a drum disposed within the cabinet, an evaporator disposed within the cabinet to remove moisture from air circulating through the drum by condensing the moisture, a condensate housing disposed within the cabinet to collect condensate from the evaporator, a drawer space disposed under the entry hole, a drawer disposed in the drawer space to be rotated based on one side of the drawer and pulled out from the drawer space, a condensate discharge container to store the condensate moved from the condensate housing, the condensate discharge container being detachably held in the drawer, and exposed to a user when the drawer is pulled out, and a guide supporter to couple a cabinet-side structure and a drawer-side structure and to guide the rotation of the drawer with respect to the cabinet.

Dryer

Disclosed is a control method for a laundry drying machine. The control method includes driving a compressor configuring the heat pump cycle for generation of heated air, sensing a compressor outlet temperature (TE) and a drum outlet temperature (TD), and determining plugging of a filter, based on a difference between the compressor outlet temperature (TE) and the drum outlet temperature (TD).

Control method for laundry drying machine

A clothes dryer includes a rotatable drum, a drum supporter for supporting the drum, the drum supporter being provided with a discharge port for discharging air from the drum, a circulation channel for guiding air discharged through the discharge port into the drum, and a filter cartridge for filtering air in the circulation channel, wherein the filter cartridge includes an inside filter cartridge for filtering air discharged from the drum and an outside filter cartridge disposed in the circulation channel in a state of being supported by the drum supporter, the outside filter cartridge including a front filter for filtering air that passes through the inside filter cartridge and flows forward, a rear filter for filtering air that passes through the inside filter cartridge and flows rearward, and a lateral filter for filtering air that passes through the inside filter cartridge and flows in the lateral direction.
