    Abstract: A clothes treating apparatus may include a heat pump that is detachable and controlled according to a plurality of operation modes. The plurality of operation modes may include a drying mode configured to control operation of the heat pump when the heat pump is mounted on the cabinet and a dehumidification mode configured to control operation of the heat pump when the heat pump is separated from the cabinet. The heat pump may be used in a separable manner when separated therefrom as well as when mounted thereon.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system iron. The system iron according to the present invention includes a body including a steam generator for generating steam; an ironing plate, which is rotatably coupled to an upper portion of the body and which sprays the steam generated by the steam generator to an outside; an angle-limiting member for limiting rotation of the ironing plate; a button unit, which is operated in linkage with the angle-limiting unit so as to release a state in which the rotation of the ironing plate is limited by the angle-limiting unit; and an elastic member for maintaining the state in which the rotation of the ironing plate is limited by the angle-limiting unit.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for drying laundry using an intelligent washer. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for drying laundry trains a time prediction model for obtaining first remaining time information related to complete dryness of the laundry, obtains first washer state information related to a state of a washer for drying the laundry, obtains the first remaining time information by inputting the first washer state information to the trained time prediction model, and dries the washer based on the obtained first remaining time information, thus precisely predicting the time necessary for complete dryness of wet laundry. According to an embodiment, the washer may be related to artificial intelligence (AI) modules, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), robots, augmented reality (AR) devices, virtual reality (VR) devices, and 5G service-related devices.

    Abstract: A method of controlling a dryer includes rotating a drum within the dryer in a first direction, detecting at least one of temperature or relative humidity of air discharged from the drum while the drum is rotating in the first direction, and sensing occurrence of entanglement inside the drum by comparing a variation rate of at least one of the detected temperature or the detected relative humidity with a corresponding reference value. The method also includes, based on sensing that the entanglement has occurred, reversing a rotation direction of the drum by rotating the drum in a second direction that is opposite the first direction, and further, based on reversing the rotation direction of the drum upon sensing that the entanglement has occurred, maintaining the second direction of rotation of the drum for a preset time.

    Abstract: A condensing type clothes dryer having a heat pump cycle and a method for controlling a condensing type clothes dryer having a heat pump cycle are provided. The condensing type clothes dryer may include a drum in which an object to be dried may be accommodated; a circulation duct that forms a circulation passage such that air may circulate via the drum; a circulation fan configured to circulate the air along the circulation duct; a heat pump cycle having an evaporator and a condenser spaced from each other in the circulation duct, and configured to absorb heat of air discharged from the drum through the evaporator and to transfer the heat to air introduced into the drum through the condenser using an operation fluid which may circulate via the evaporator and the condenser; a bypass flow path formed at the circulation duct such that a portion of air discharged from the drum may bypass the evaporator to be mixed with air having passed through the evaporator at an upstream side of the condenser; and an opening and closing device installed at the bypass flow path and configured to selectively open or close the bypass flow path.

    Abstract: A condensing type clothes dryer having a heat pump cycle is provided that may include a drum in which an object to be dried may be accommodated; a circulation duct that forms a circulation passage such that air may circulate via the drum; and a heat pump cycle. The heat pump cycle may include a plurality of evaporators provided adjacent to each other in the circulation duct; a condenser provided at a downstream side of the plurality of evaporators and spaced therefrom, that absorbs heat of air discharged from the drum through the plurality of evaporators, and transfers the heat to air introduced into the drum through the condenser, using an operation fluid, which may circulate via the plurality of evaporators and the condenser; a plurality of divergence pipes that form a divergence passage, such that the operation fluid discharged from the condenser may be introduced into each of the plurality of evaporators; a plurality of electronic expansion valves provided at the plurality of divergence pipes, respectively, that opens and closes the plurality of divergence passage; and a controller that controls a flow amount of the operation fluid to be introduced into each of the plurality of evaporators by controlling an open degree of the divergence passage based on a super heat degree of the operation fluid passing through each of the plurality of evaporators.
