Abstract:
A clothes treatment apparatus and a method for controlling a clothes treatment apparatus are provided. The clothes treatment apparatus may include a drying duct, a first blower fan located in the drying duct that circulates interior air within the drying duct, and a filter located in the drying duct. The method may include sensing clogging of the filter, and switching a flow of air passing through the filter from a first direction to an opposite second direction if clogging of the filter is sensed. The method may further include a washing cycle for washing clothes, and a drying cycle for drying the clothes. An implementation time of the washing cycle may be less than an implementation time of the drying cycle.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a laundry machine having a drying function for drying an object to be dried, especially clothes. In the laundry machine according to one embodiment of the present invention, lint and the like that may be contained in the hot air are removed by the filter, whereby the lint and the like can be prevented from being piled on the duct. Also, the filter is placed in a way that it is exposed into the tub, whereby the filter can be cleaned automatically while it is being driven.
Abstract:
A washing machine including a drying function for drying laundry items received therein is provided. The washing machine may include an air circulating device that circulates air through a tub of the washing machine and heats air for re-supply to the tub, and an air discharge device that discharges a portion of moist air from the tub to an outside of the tub.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a laundry machine in which the lint filter can be cleaned even at low water pressure and a method for cleaning the lint filter, wherein the invention comprises: a tub in which washing water is accommodated; a drum which is rotatably disposed in said tub; an air circulating unit which supplies air to said tub; an air returning hole which returns the air of said tub to said air circulating unit; a lint filter which filters lint contained in the air which is circulated by said air circulating unit; and a filter cleaning unit which sprays the washing water through a plurality of nozzle holes such that said lint is separated from said lint filter.
Abstract:
A washing machine and a control method therefore are disclosed. The washing machine includes a cabinet (10); a tub (100) fixed to the cabinet (10); a drum (300) rotatably provided in the tub (100); a dry duct (20) which heats air exhausted from the tub (100) a predetermined temperature, to re-supply the heated air to the tub (100); condensation unit (170) which condenses moisture on at least a predetermined area of an inner circumferential surface of the tub (100) by heat-exchanging external air of the cabinet (10) with at least predetermined area of an outer circumferential surface of the tub (100); and sensing unit (410) which senses the amount of condensate generated in the tub (100). A washing machine and a control method thereof are disclosed.
