Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a laundry treatment machine. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a laundry treatment machine includes a controller controlling a motor, during dewatering, to be driven at a first speed when a lift is at a first level and to drive the motor at a second speed greater than the first speed when the lift is at a second level greater than the first level, wherein the lift is a difference between a water level of a water introduction part through which water flows into a drain pump and a water level of a water discharge part through which the water is discharged out of the drain pump. Accordingly, noise or vibration can be reduced even if the lift is changed during the dewatering.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a drain pump driving apparatus and a laundry treatment machine including the same. A drain pump driving apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a controller configured to drive a motor, during drainage, based on an output current and a direct current (DC) terminal voltage with a first power when a lift is at a first level and to drive the motor with the first power when the lift is at a second level that is greater than the first level, wherein the lift is a difference between a water level of a water introduction part through which water flows into a drain pump and a water level of a water discharge part through which the water is discharged out of the drain pump. Accordingly, water pumping can be performed smoothly even if the lift is changed during the drainage.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a laundry treatment machine. A laundry treatment machine comprises: an inverter to convert the DC voltage from the converter into alternating current (AC) voltage by a switching operation and to output the converted AC voltage to a motor; and a controller that controls such that, while a washing tub motor is rotating at a constant speed, a drain motor operates in a first period during which the speed of the drain motor increases, a second period during which the speed of the drain motor decreases after the first period, and a third period during which the speed of the drain motor decreases after the second period, wherein a rising slope in the second period is less than a falling slope in the third period. Accordingly, a speed ripple of the drain motor may be reduced.

Abstract: A compressor including a motor having a rotary shaft, a rotor and a stator, and an impeller at a front end of the rotary shaft to suction refrigerant in an axial direction and compress the refrigerant in a centrifugal direction. The compressor has a collar at a rear end of the rotary shaft and coupled to the rotary shaft to be extended outwardly in a radial direction of the rotary shaft. Radial bearings support a radial movement of the rotary shaft at a front and rear of the stator. A thrust bearing prevents an axial movement of the rotary shaft. A mechanical backup bearing also prevents the axial movement of the rotary shaft. A fixing unit supports the backup bearing at the rear end of the rotary shaft, wherein the backup bearing is arranged to overlap the thrust bearing in the radial direction of the rotary shaft.
