The present disclosure relates to an oven including a main body including a cooking chamber, a door rotatably coupled to the main body to open and close the cooking chamber, and a door locking device to lock the door not to be open with respect to the main body, wherein the door locking device includes a cam to be rotatable and including a plurality of first contact parts and a plurality of second contact parts, a lock releasing guide to linearly move to selectively come into contact with the plurality of first contact parts, and a locker to come into contact with the plurality of second contact parts and coupled to a locker holder provided in the door when coming into the plurality of second contact parts. Other various embodiments are possible.

Oven

A home appliance is provided. The home appliance includes a main body having an opening, a door disposed on one side of the main body, the door being configured to open or close the opening, and a damping assembly configured to be operated by the door. The damping assembly includes a first lever installed in the main body, the first lever being configured to be movable when the door is pressed, a second lever connected to the first lever, and a cylinder connected to the second lever, the cylinder being configured to be movable in a direction that is parallel to a movement path of the first lever.

Home appliance

A home appliance in which an opening and closing operation of a door and a turning operation of a handle are connected through five joints, so that the turning operation of the handle can be performed smoothly, and a latch for fixing the door to a body moves to a position parallel to the door when the door is opened, so that a user is prevented from being interfered with the latch while opening the door and using a cavity of the home appliance.

Home appliance having leveling door handle

Disclosed is a washing machine and a home appliance including a plurality of doors, a damper configured to buffer pivoting of the plurality of doors, and a structure by which each of the plurality of doors smoothly opened/shut.

Washing machine and home appliance

Disclosed is a home appliance including a latch for a door having an improved structure. The home appliance includes a main body having a cavity, a door rotatably coupled to the main body to open and close the cavity, a latch having a locking portion provided to fix the door to the main body and a leg provided to rotate the locking portion in a first direction, and an elastic member coupled to the latch to elastically bias the locking portion in a second direction.

Disclosed herein is a washing machine having an elastic member for providing resilient power to the door in a direction in which the door is opened and a damping member arranged to damp pivoting of the door or an inner door. The washing machine has a structure to smoothly open/shut the door and inner door combined together, and if supplementary washing is required, to smoothly open/shut only the inner door.

Washing machine

A washing machine having a drying apparatus, which can perform a heated drying operation and shorten a drying time of laundry, is provided. The washing machine having a drying apparatus includes a top cover which is provided in an upper part of a body and has at least one air hole formed in a top surface thereof, a drying duct which is provided in the top cover to supply air heated by a heater provided thereinside to the air hole, and a rack member which is provided to be extractable from the body to hang laundry above the body.

Washing machine having drying apparatus

A door hinge apparatus having a coupling structure between a door and a cabinet, and a drum-type washing machine having the same. The drum type washing machine includes an inlet formed through the cabinet to allow laundry to be inserted or withdrawn therethrough, a door coupled to the cabinet to open and close the inlet, and a hinge between the door and the cabinet. The hinge includes a cabinet bracket coupled to a front surface of the cabinet, a door bracket coupled to the door, a first moving unit coupled to the door bracket to allow the door to be pivoted with respect to the cabinet, and a second moving unit coupled to the cabinet bracket to allow the door to protrude forward from the cabinet and be substantially parallel and spaced from the cabinet. The door opens the inlet by moving forward by a predetermined distance or more from the cabinet and then pivoting, so that moisture in the drum is removed to some extent before the inlet is opened and the door can open without friction between the door and the cabinet.
