Abstract: A docking station including a docking unit providing a traveling path for a robotic vacuum cleaner, having a mounted mopping cloth, that enters the docking unit; a mopping cloth separator disposed on the docking unit and configured to automatically separate the mounted mopping cloth from the robotic vacuum cleaner while the robotic vacuum cleaner is at a first position along the traveling path; and a mopping cloth coupler disposed on the docking unit and configured so that, after the mounted mopping cloth is separated from the robotic vacuum cleaner, and the robotic vacuum cleaner thereafter moves to a second position along the traveling path, the mopping cloth coupler supplies a mopping cloth to be mounted to the robotic vacuum cleaner from below the traveling path while the robotic vacuum cleaner is at the second position.

Abstract: A docking station for a cleaner including a docking unit including an upper surface forming a travel route along a first direction for a robot cleaner to move upon to enter the docking station; and a floorcloth separator including a protrusion, and configured so that the protrusion protrudes from a predetermined area of the upper surface of the docking unit such that a free end of the protrusion is defined along a second direction different from the first direction, and while a robot cleaner with a floorcloth attached thereto travels on the travel route along the first direction, at least a portion of the protrusion is inserted between the robot cleaner and the attached floorcloth to separate the attached floorcloth from the robot cleaner.

Abstract: A clothes dryer including a cabinet, a drum rotatably supported in the cabinet, a supply port configured to guide air into the drum, an exhaust port configured to guide the air in the drum to an outside of the drum, and a lint removing apparatus configured to remove lint from the air passing through the exhaust port. Where the lint removing apparatus includes a lint filter configured to capture lint, a rotation member rotatably installed to scrape and collect the lint captured in the lint filer, a driving device configured to generate power, a first coupler connected to the driving device to receive the power from the driving device, and a second coupler coupled to the first coupler to transmit the power to the rotation member.
