A ventilation hood is provided. The ventilation hood includes a housing provided above a heating cooker and having an air suction port on a lower surface thereof, a blowing fan provided in the housing to induce air to the air suction port, and a panel provided below the housing to form an airflow path between the lower surface of the housing and the panel, wherein the panel faces the air suction port with a gap therebetween to cover the air suction port so that air is sucked into the airflow path from a front of an upstream opening of the airflow path as the blowing fan operates.

Ventilation hood

A shoe dryer including a main body, a shoe receiver provided inside the main body and configured to receive a shoe, a blower configured to blow air toward the shoe received in the shoe receiving portion, a camera configured to obtain an image of the shoe by photographing the shoe received in the shoe receiver, and a control device configured to recognize information about the shoe from the image of the shoe obtained by the camera, and control a direction of air blown by the blower based on the information about the shoe.

Shoe dryer and control method thereof

Disclosed herein is a plasma generator capable of stably performing the discharge and an appliance having the same, wherein the plasma generator is configured to generate the discharge by plasma. The plasma generator includes a first case configured to store water to be treated; a second case disposed inside the first case and provided with a body having opposite sides opened, and a cover covering opened one side of the body; a first electrode disposed such that at least thereof is immersed in the water to be treated stored in the first case; and a second electrode disposed inside the second case. The second electrode is apart from a water surface of the water to be treated in an upper side of the water surface of the water to be treated in contact with opened other side of the body opposite to one side of the body.

Plasma generator and home appliance having the same

The present disclosure relates to a technique capable of being used even in an environment that needs to be maintained at a low temperature. The present disclosure may include a fan configured to generate a flow of air, an absorbing material disposed downstream from the fan and configured to absorb a malodorous substance from air passing therethrough and to desorb the malodorous substance by being heated, an upstream heater disposed downstream from the fan and upstream from the absorbing material and configured to heat air entered the absorbing material, a catalyst configured to decompose the malodorous substance desorbed from the absorbing material, and a cooler configured to cool air passed through the catalyst.

Deodorizing apparatus and refrigerator including the same

The present invention relates to a water softening device including: a resin chamber which has an ion exchange resin and softens hard water passing through the ion exchange resin; and electrodes which are arranged by placing the resin chamber therebetween and apply voltages to the resin chamber so as to soften the hard water, and which regenerates the ion exchange resin, wherein the ion exchange resin is a slightly acidic cation exchange resin and/or a weakly alkaline anion exchange resin. The present invention provides the water softening device capable of easily regenerating the ion exchange resin and repeating the softening-regenerating without using chemicals or the like while maintaining the performance of softening water, thereby enabling a continuous use thereof.
