A food waste disposer includes a housing, a grinding case inside the housing to dispose of food waste, a valve assembly mounted to a lower portion of the grinding case, and a driving device arranged on one side of the valve assembly to operate the valve assembly. The grinding case includes a discharge hole formed on a bottom surface. The valve assembly includes a valve member configured to open or close the discharge hole. The driving device includes: a driving motor to generate power; a power transmission member connected to the driving motor and configured to be moved in a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction; a holding member that rotates based on the movement of the power transmission member and connects to the valve member to guide an open or closed state of the valve member; and a sensor in contact with the power transmission member.

Food waste disposer

A food waste disposer includes: a housing; a grinding case positioned inside the housing, configured to grind food waste, and separable from the housing, wherein a discharge hole is formed in a bottom of the grinding case; a valve assembly coupled to the grinding case below the discharge hole and configured to open or close the discharge hole, the valve assembly protruding below the grinding case; a storage case positioned below the grinding case and configured to store the grinded food waste from the grinding case; a transfer tube positioned between the valve assembly and the storage case and configured to transfer the grinded food waste from the grinding case to the storage case; and a connector coupled to the transfer tube, wherein a shape of the connector is deformable upon the valve assembly resting on the connector.

A food waste disposer includes: a housing; a grinding case positioned inside the housing and configured to be separable from inside of the housing to outside of the housing and treat food waste; a rotating grinder configured to treat the food waste by rotating inside the grinding case and rotatably coupled with respect to a bottom surface of the grinding case; a grinder rotating shaft inserted in the rotating grinder and configured to rotate together with the rotating grinder; and a driver positioned below the grinding case and configured to provide rotation power of the rotating grinder, wherein the driver includes: a driving motor configured to generate power; a shaft driving gear configured to rotate by receiving power of the driving motor; and a connecting shaft configured to be rotatable within a range of a first angle with respect to the shaft driving gear, wherein one end of the connecting shaft is inserted in the grinder rotating shaft and another end of the connecting shaft is inserted in the shaft driving gear to transfer power from the shaft driving gear to the grinder rotating shaft.

An electronic device includes a housing including a first housing, and a second housing which is rotatably coupled to the first housing, a flexible display facing the first and second housings and including a folding area, a waterproof member between the housing and the flexible display, and a support structure between the housing and the flexible display, where the support structure includes a first part having a first height and a second part having a second height greater than the first height, and the second part is overlapping the folding area.

Electronic device including display support structure

Food waste disposers include a housing, a grinding apparatus mounted inside the housing and configured to grind food waste, and a storage device arranged to store ground food waste. The grinding apparatus includes a grinding case including a discharge hole to allow ground food waste to be transferred to the storage device, a stationary grinder including a plurality of stationary blades coupled to a side wall of the grinding case, a rotary body rotatably coupled to a bottom surface of the grinding case, a first blade extending from the rotary body, the first blade having a first member on a front side and a second member on a rear side with a different shape from each other, and a second blade extending from the rotary body, the second blade having a shape different from a shape of the first blade.

Provided is a food waste disposer. The food waste disposer according to a concept of the disclosure includes: a housing; a grinding device positioned inside the housing and configured to grind food waste; and a storage device positioned below the grinding device and storing the grinded food waste, wherein the grinding device includes: a grinding case configured to grind the food waste, and including an outlet opening to transfer the food waste to the storage device; and a valve assembly positioned below the grinding case and opening and closing the outlet, the valve assembly being separable from the housing together with the grinding case.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing having a key hole formed therein and including a switch disposed therein, the key hole being formed such that a first length is longer than a second, perpendicular length and a key assembly coupled to the housing, a portion of the key assembly being disposed inside the key hole. The key assembly includes a cover member, a portion of which is exposed outside the housing through the key hole and a pressing member that is coupled to the cover member and presses the switch. The pressing member includes first protrusions protruding from opposite longitudinal ends of the pressing member in a first direction, and the first protrusions are brought into contact with an inner wall of the key hole and have elasticity such that a portion of the first protrusions are capable of elastic deformation.

Electronic device including key assembly

A pet care system includes a mobile robot comprising a first communication circuit configured to transmit a search signal through a first communication method and a second communication circuit configured to transmit event occurrence information through a second communication method different from the first communication method. The system includes a wearable device including a sensor configured to transmit a response signal through the first communication method in response to the search signal. The system includes a station comprising an operation dispenser configured to perform a predetermined operation based on the reception of the event occurrence information. The mobile robot further comprises a processor configured to determine a moving direction of the mobile robot based on the response signal received from the wearable device.
