Abstract:
A robot cleaner system is described including a docking station to form a docking area within a predetermined angle range of a front side thereof, to form docking guide areas which do not overlap each other on the left and right sides of the docking area, and to transmit a docking guide signal such that the docking guide areas are distinguished as a first docking guide area and a second docking guide area according to an arrival distance of the docking guide signal. The robot cleaner system also includes a robot cleaner to move to the docking area along a boundary between the first docking guide area and the second docking guide area when the docking guide signal is sensed and to move along the docking area so as to perform docking when reaching the docking area.
Abstract:
An oven having enhanced cooling efficiency. The oven includes a cooking chamber, a door to open or close a front side of the cooking chamber, a cooling fan located above the cooking chamber to suction and blow outside air, a discharge duct to discharge the air, blown by the cooling fan, forward of the door, a plurality of flow-paths defined in the door to allow outside air to be introduced into and moved in the flow-path in association with discharge of the air through the discharge duct, and a suction pipe to connect at least one of the flow-paths and the cooling fan to each other. Suction force of the cooling fan is applied to the flow-paths of the door through the suction pipe as well as the interior of an electric machine room, allowing the air in the flow-path to be discharged to the outside through the suction pipe and the discharge duct. This assures more active air movement in the door and maximizes the cooling effect of the door.
Abstract:
A connection terminal of a litz wire, a mounting method thereof, and a manufacturing method of a cooking appliance with a working coil consisting of the litz wire. The mounting method includes preparing the litz wire including plural wires, each of which includes a sheath, installing one end of the litz wire at the connection terminal, removing the sheaths from the plural wires by heating the litz wire, and deforming the connection terminal through a pinch-off process, thereby connecting front ends of the wires through the connection terminal and removing the sheaths or sheath residues between cores of the wires, and thus reducing resistance of the litz wire.
Abstract:
A cleaning apparatus including a main body, a dust collection unit detachably installed on the main body and provided with a plurality of inlets, through which foreign substances are introduced into the dust collection unit, and a connection hole, to which an external instrument is connected, a shutter to open and close one inlet, and a cap to open and close the connection hole. The shutter opens and closes the inlet in cooperation with one of whether or not the dust collection unit is attached to or detached from the main body and whether or not the connection hole is opened or closed.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a robot cleaner that has an improved traveling performance, and a method of controlling traveling thereof. The robot cleaner allows driving wheels, which move the robot cleaner, and a brush unit, which sweeps dust on a floor, to be rotated in the same direction.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an autonomous cleaning machine with a brush cleaning unit to clean a brush unit. The autonomous cleaning machine includes a main body, the brush unit rotatably provided on the main body, first brush cleaning members contacting the brush unit to move foreign substances wound on the brush unit in a lengthwise direction of the brush unit, and second brush cleaning members contacting the brush unit to remove the foreign substances wound on the brush unit from the brush unit.
Abstract:
A coating composition and a cooking device and/or cooking receptacle coated with the coating composition are described. The coating composition includes 10 to 30 wt. % of SiO2, 10 to 30 wt. % of P2O5, 10 to 30 wt. % of Al2O3, 1 to 20 wt. % of TiO2, 7 to 15 wt. % of Na2O, 7 to 15 wt. % of K2O, 5 to 10 wt. % of ZrO2, 2 to 5 wt. % of BaO, 2 to 5 wt. % of B2O3, 1 to 2 wt. % of MnO2, and an adhesion enhancer. The coating composition provides favorable thermal resistance, acid resistance and mechanical properties, such that a cooking device and/or receptacle coated with the coating composition may be easily cleaned at a relatively low temperature.
Abstract:
An upright type cleaner in which a mounting structure of a suction device is improved is described. The cleaner includes a base provided with a suction port, a main body connected to the base, and a suction device including a flexible hose extended from the base or the main body, a pipe connected to the flexible hose, and a tool connected to the pipe. The suction device may be fixedly attached to the main body when the tool is mounted on the suction device.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a fixing structure of a subsidiary suction device of an upright type cleaner. The upright type cleaner includes a base provided with a suction port; a main body connected to the base; and a wand assembly detachably attached to the main body, and the wand assembly is rotated in one direction under the condition that the wand assembly is supported by the main body, and thus is mounted on the main body.
Abstract:
A cyclone separating apparatus and a vacuum cleaner having the same are provided. The cyclone separating apparatus includes a cyclone body including a cyclone chamber and a dust collecting chamber, a cover unit connected to an upper portion of the cyclone body, a door unit openably mounted to a bottom portion of the cyclone body, and at least one noise reducing rib formed in an air discharging pipe in the cyclone chamber.
