Abstract: A drying apparatus is proposed. A moving bar (230) may be mounted to a main body (100) of the drying apparatus to move relative thereto. The inlet (248) may be formed in a side of a lower surface of the moving bar (230), the inlet allowing air to be introduced into the moving bar (230). The bar fan assembly (250) may be provided in the moving bar (230). The nozzle slot (245′) may be formed in the moving bar (230), the nozzle slot allowing the air to be discharged slantingly toward a front lower part of the main body (100). A bar casing (232) having an open lower part and a bar cover (242) covering the open lower part may constitute the exterior of the moving bar (230).

Abstract: A drying apparatus is proposed. The main body (100) may constitute the frame of the drying apparatus. The fan receiving part (104) may be provided in an upper part of the main body (100), and the fan assembly (160) may be installed in the fan receiving part (104). In the fan receiving part (104), the fan of the fan assembly (160) may be relatively located at a side of a rear end of the main body (100), and a fan motor (170) may be relatively located at a side of the front end of the main body (100). Accordingly, outside air may be introduced through the side edges of the rear end of the main body (100); may flow through a filter assembly (180) directly to the fan housing (162); and may flow through the air exit (169) of the fan housing (162) directly to the duct (130).

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a door that has a front panel with an operation area to receive a touch operation of a user, a touch sensor assembly that is located rearward of the operation area and that includes sensors to generate an input signal based on the touch operation, and a sensor controller connected to the touch sensor assembly and configured to process the input signal received from the touch sensor assembly. The sensor controller is configured to determine whether the touch operation is a push operation or a release operation based on comparison of a voltage value of the processed input signal to predetermined first and second threshold voltage values.

Abstract: A filter assembly and a drying apparatus having the filter assembly are proposed. The filter assembly (180) may purify air introduced into the main body (100) of the drying apparatus. The filter assembly (180) may be protruded by a predetermined distance to a side surface of the main body (100) by the moving plate (190). The filter frame (182) protruded by the moving plate (190) may be removed from the moving plate (190) to perform maintenance of filters (184, 186, 188).

Abstract: A drying apparatus is proposed. A main body (100) may constitute the frame of the drying apparatus. A front end frame (102) and a rear end frame (106) may constitute the exterior of the main body (100). A moving bar (230) may discharge air while moving up and down along the front surface of the main body (100). A duct (130) may be installed in the main body (100), and air flown by a fan assembly (160) may be separated in the duct and be discharged to a user through the edges of the front surface of the main body to dry the user. A drive assembly (210) moving the moving bar (230) up and down may be installed in the installation space (150) defined in the duct (130).
