Clothing Treatment Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240247429 titled 'Clothing Treatment Apparatus

The clothing treatment apparatus described in the patent application consists of a frame, a hanger body for hanging clothing, and a vibration module that generates vibration to move the hanger body relative to the frame.

  • The vibration module includes a first eccentric portion rotating around a predetermined axis, a second eccentric portion rotating around a parallel axis, and a vibrating body fixed to a central axis fixed to the frame.
  • The first and second eccentric portions rotate in the same direction to move the vibrating body about the central axis.

Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in commercial laundry facilities to efficiently treat and dry clothing. - It could also be applied in retail stores to quickly refresh and remove wrinkles from garments on display.

Problems Solved: - The apparatus eliminates the need for manual shaking or steaming of clothing items, saving time and labor costs. - It provides a consistent and effective method for treating a large number of garments at once.

Benefits: - Increased efficiency in clothing treatment processes. - Improved presentation of clothing items in retail settings. - Reduced labor costs and manual effort.

Commercial Applications: - "Revolutionary Clothing Treatment Apparatus: Enhancing Efficiency in Laundry Facilities and Retail Stores"

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the vibration module work to move the hanger body with respect to the frame? 2. What are the specific benefits of using this apparatus in a retail store or laundry facility?


Original Abstract Submitted

a clothing treatment apparatus includes a frame, a hanger body provided to hang clothing or a hanger, and a vibration module generating vibration, and configured to move the hanger body with respect to the frame. the vibration module includes a first eccentric portion rotating about a predetermined first rotation axis, a second eccentric portion rotating about a predetermined second rotation axis that is spaced apart from and parallel to the first rotation axis, and a vibrating body fixed to a predetermined central axis that is fixed to the frame and disposed between the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis. the first eccentric portion and the second eccentric portion rotate in the same direction to rotate the vibrating body about the central axis.
