Abstract: A clothing treatment apparatus includes a frame, a hanger body movable relative to the frame, a vibrating body including a predetermined central axis, a first eccentric portion supported by the vibrating body and capable of rotating about a first rotation axis spaced apart from the central axis, a second eccentric portion supported by the vibrating body and rotatable about a second rotation axis spaced apart from the central axis, and a hanger driving unit disposed in the vibrating body and connected to the hanger body at a position spaced apart from the central axis. Centrifugal forces of the first and second eccentric portions with respect to the first and second rotation axes, respectively, reinforce each other when the vibrating body generates a rotational force about the central axis, and oppose each other when the vibrating body does not generate the rotational force.

Abstract: A clothes treating device includes a clothes accommodation part for accommodating clothes or laundry, a water supply pipe for supplying water into the clothes treating device, and a drain pipe for discharging water to the outside of the clothes treating device. A pump assembly generates a flow of water inside the water supply pipe and the drain pipe by using the rotation of a motor. The flow of water is generated only in one of the water supply pipe and the drain pipe depending on the rotating direction of the motor.
