Abstract: An air conditioner includes a housing including an inlet and an outlet, and a blade rotatably provided to open and close the outlet. A blade drive device is connected to one end of the blade in a longitudinal direction of the blade to rotate the blade. A blade support unit is configured to rotatably support the other end of the blade in the longitudinal direction of the blade. The blade support unit includes a coil spring configured to apply torque to the blade and a blade holder is coupled to the other end of the blade. A first coupler is coupled to the coil spring, and is configured to penetrate the coil of the coil spring. A case is configured to accommodate the first coupler of the blade holder and is mounted to the housing. The air conditioner is capable of reducing deformation and noise in a blade.

Abstract: A dryer includes: a main body which includes a front panel with an opening, an inlet and a base forming a bottom surface; a drum; and a heat exchanger accessible through the opening. The base includes a bottom portion on which the heat exchanger is seated and a front wall portion vertical to the bottom portion. The base includes a cover configured to open and close the opening, a filter unit, and a ground electrode on the front wall portion. The filter unit includes a fixer member coupleable to the front wall portion such that while the fixer member at a first position the filter unit is prevented from being separated, and while the fixer member is moved to a second position the filter unit is separable from the front wall portion. The fixer member is electrically connected to the ground electrode at the first position.

Abstract: An air conditioner including a main body including a first side, a second side opposite to the first side, an outlet between the first and second side, and a guide protrusion on the outlet; and a blade to open and close the outlet, the blade including a blade body extending from the first side to the second side of the main body when the outlet is closed by the blade, and a guide rail on a top surface of the blade body facing the outlet. The blade is configured so that the blade body is rotatable relative to the outlet to adjust a direction of air from the outlet, and the guide rail is supported by the guide protrusion to be slidable to guide at least one of a translational or a rotational movement of the blade body with respect to the main body during rotation of the blade body.

Abstract: An air cleaner capable of removing bacteria and viruses. The air cleaner includes: a main body including a suction hole through which air is introduced and a discharge hole through which air is discharged; an ultraviolet (UV) irradiation device disposed between the suction hole and the discharge hole, and including a UV light emitting diode (LED) configured to transmit ultraviolet rays toward the discharge hole; a photocatalyst filter including a photocatalyst provided to generate active oxygen by reacting with the UV rays transmitted from the UV LED, and disposed between the UV irradiation device and the discharge hole; and a light blocking member disposed between the UV LED and the suction hole to prevent the UV rays transmitted from the UV LED from being emitted to an outside of the main body through the suction hole.

Abstract: An air conditioner is provided. The air conditioner includes a housing, a heat exchanger positioned inside the housing, a fan for blowing air into the heat exchanger such that heat in the blown air is exchanged with the heat exchanger, a duct including a first channel forming surface, and a second channel forming surface, a porous panel corresponding to the second channel forming surface, and including a plurality of pores, a blade for swiveling between an open position and a closed position, blocking the low wind-speed channel at the open position so that air passed through the basic channel can be discharged outside of the air conditioner, moving the air passed through the basic channel to the low wind-speed channel, and discharging the air to the outside via the pores at the closed position, a driver for driving the blade to swivel, and a processor configured to control the driver.
