A drum rotatably disposed within a cabinet, a door coupled to a front of the cabinet, a front supporter to support a side of the drum, and a fragrance storage and supply assembly disposed on the front supporter and comprising a receiving part that is rotatably installed within the cabinet. A cabinet defining an outer appearance of the laundry dryer, a drum rotatably installed in the cabinet, a door to open and close a laundry passage formed by an opening in the cabinet that is configured for passage of laundry into and out of the drum, a fragrance storage and supply assembly comprising a receiving assembly to receive liquid fragrance, a storage chamber, remote from the receiving part, to store the liquid fragrance, a mount fixed to the cabinet, a hinge, rotatably joining the mount and the receiving part, wherein the receiving part rotates about the hinge from a space within an interior of the laundry dryer to a space exterior to the laundry dryer. The laundry dryer further comprises a storage chamber to store liquid fragrance. Additionally, the storage chamber is provided with a level detector for detecting an amount of fragrance solution remaining in the storage chamber.

Laundry dryer having fragrance storage and supply assembly

Disclosed is a liquid storage container and a clothes dryer having the same. The liquid storage container comprises: a reservoir installed at the clothes dryer, and configured to store liquid therein; a light transmitting window disposed above the reservoir; and a level indicator configured to be partially or wholly immersed into the liquid stored in the reservoir according to a level of the liquid. According to the amount of the liquid stored in the reservoir, an immersed degree of the level indicator into the liquid may become different. Accordingly, a user may easily and rapidly check a remaining amount of the liquid with his or her naked eyes.

Liquid storage container and clothes dryer having the same

Disclosed are a liquid storage container and a clothes dryer having the same. The liquid storage container comprises: a reservoir installed at a clothes dryer, and configured to store liquid therein; a floating member floating on the liquid, and disposed on the reservoir with a rotation angle variable according to level change of the liquid inside the reservoir; and display means configured to display information corresponding to the rotation angle of the floating member. The rotation angle of the floating member may vary according to a remaining amount of the liquid. And, the remaining amount of the liquid may be informed to a user through the display means. Accordingly, the user may easily check the remaining amount of the liquid without checking the inside of the liquid storage container.

Disclosed are a liquid storage container and a clothes dryer having the same. The clothes dryer comprises: a body; a front supporter which forms a part of a front surface of the body, and configured to fix the drum; a door installed at the front supporter; a liquid storage container comprising a reservoir configured to store liquid therein, and an inlet unit through which liquid is introduced into the reservoir; and a remaining amount indicator configured to indicate a remaining amount of the liquid stored in the reservoir, wherein the remaining amount indicator is installed on a rear surface of the front supporter, and is exposed to the front surface of the body.
