Disclosed herein is a refrigerator including a sliding bar provided in each of a pair of doors and that moves between standby and contact positions to which the sliding bar moves from the standby position to seal a gap between the doors, and a moving device that operates the sliding bar in linkage with operations of opening and closing the doors, wherein the moving device includes a lever that is pressed by the main body and rotatably provided inside the doors to transmit a pressing force in a direction different from a direction in which the lever is pressed by the main body, and a sliding link that operates in linkage with rotation of the lever and configured so that the sliding bar moves between the standby position and the contact position. Through this configuration, the refrigerator minimizes noise related to opening and closing the doors and improves insulation performance.

Refrigerator

A wearable device according to an embodiment disclosed herein may include: a housing forming at least a part of an exterior of the wearable device; a battery disposed in the housing and including a positive electrode terminal and a negative electrode terminal; a connection terminal part, at least a part of which is exposed through at least a part of the housing and including a first terminal and a second terminal; a bridge circuit configured to, based on a polarity of a first voltage applied to the first terminal, electrically connect the first terminal to one of the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal having polarity corresponding to the polarity of the first voltage, and based on a polarity of a second voltage applied to the second terminal, electrically connect the second terminal to one of the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal having polarity corresponding to the polarity of the second voltage; a sensor module configured to obtain bio-information; and a switch circuit configured to selectively connect the connection terminal part with the bridge circuit and the sensor module.

Electronic device for charging battery by using terminal exposed to outside and operation method thereof

Disclosed herein are a washing machine including a moving mechanism and a method of controlling the washing machine. The washing machine includes a cabinet, a tub disposed inside the cabinet, a drum rotatably provided inside the tub, a front panel which is located at one side of the cabinet and comprises an opening through which laundry is inserted and taken out, and a driving unit which moves the tub to change a space between the tub and the front panel. It is possible to prevent oscillation from being transferred by spacing the front panel and the tub apart during washing. Also, it is possible to provide convenience for a user by arranging the front panel and the tub adjacent to each other while inserting or taking out laundry.

Washing machine and method of controlling the washing machine

A washing operation and a drying operation are performed while a basket which is located inside a washing tub and accommodates dishes reciprocates in a vertical direction of a washing tub due to a driving device. The basket reciprocates in order to pass through an injection nozzle which injects washing water and an air nozzle which injects air to perform the washing operation while passing through the injection nozzle and to perform the drying operation while passing through the air nozzle. Through this, a small amount of dishes may be washed and dried in a short time and the dishes may be washed using a small amount of water and energy.

Dishwasher

A refrigerator includes a door including a rotation part protruding outward from a side surface of the door, and a protection member configured to face a side surface part of the door and having at least some parts disposed between the rotation part and the main body when the door is closed, such that a user's finger is prevented from being caught between the main body and the door during rotation of the door. No magnet is installed in the gasket, a separate magnet member is provided while spaced apart from the gasket, thereby reducing the thickness of the gasket, improving the energy efficiency of the refrigerator. A seating member for seating a hot pipe thereon is provided in a partition wall of the refrigerator, thereby minimizing cool air of a storage chamber leaking to the outside.

Disclosed herein is a refrigerator capable of opening a first door with a small force using an auxiliary opening apparatus that decreases an opening force for opening the first door. A refrigerator includes a main body, a first door rotatably provided in the front of the main body and including an opening, a second door rotatably provided in front of the first door and configured to open or close the opening, a first handle coupled to a front surface of the first door and configured to open or close the first door, an auxiliary opening apparatus configured to separate the first door from the main body and decrease an opening force of the first door, a handle lever that is provided at the first handle and configured to operate the auxiliary opening apparatus, and a door cap coupled to an upper portion of the first door.
