LAUNDRY TREATMENT APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035229 titled 'LAUNDRY TREATMENT APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure is about a laundry treatment apparatus that includes a cabinet with an inlet on one side, a door that can open and close the inlet, a laundry hanger support on the inner surface of the door for supporting pants, a base plate coupled to the inner surface of the door to support the pants hung on the hanger support, a rotating shaft provided in the width direction of the door, a roller that rotates around the shaft and presses the pants, and an elastic member that applies elastic force to the roller to press the pants towards the base plate and support the rotating shaft.
- The apparatus is designed to treat laundry, specifically pants, in a convenient and efficient manner.
- The door of the cabinet acts as a support for the laundry hanger, allowing pants to be easily hung and treated.
- The base plate provides stability and support for the pants while they are being treated.
- The rotating shaft and roller mechanism ensure that the pants are pressed firmly against the base plate.
- The elastic member adds additional pressure to the roller, enhancing the effectiveness of the treatment.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Home laundry machines: This apparatus can be incorporated into washing machines or dryers to provide a dedicated space for treating pants.
- Commercial laundry services: Laundry businesses can use this apparatus to efficiently treat and press pants, improving their service quality.
- Clothing manufacturing: This technology can be integrated into clothing production lines to treat and press pants before they are packaged and shipped.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Wrinkle removal: The roller mechanism and base plate ensure that pants are pressed firmly, effectively removing wrinkles.
- Convenience: The laundry hanger support and rotating shaft make it easy to hang and treat pants, saving time and effort.
- Space-saving: The apparatus is integrated into the cabinet, eliminating the need for separate equipment or additional space.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved laundry treatment: The apparatus provides a reliable and efficient method for treating pants, resulting in better-looking and wrinkle-free garments.
- Time and energy-saving: The convenience and effectiveness of this technology save time and effort for users.
- Space-efficient: The integrated design of the apparatus saves space, making it suitable for various settings.
