Abstract: Provided is a coagulation apparatus using cold plasma. In the coagulation apparatus, the cold plasma is generated by a microwave resonator with low power consumption in the atmosphere, and the cold plasma is vented on a bleeding portion of a wound. Accordingly, it is possible to accelerate coagulation process, to reduce unfavorable side effect such as burns on the wound, and to efficiently sterilize the wound, simultaneously. In addition, it is possible to implement a small-sized portable coagulation apparatus.

Abstract: A washing machine with an odor removal function includes a cabinet, a tub received in the cabinet and including an intake port and an exhaust port so as to receive and discharge air, and a washing tub rotatably provided in the tub. Here, ambient air flows into the tub through the intake port by a suction force generated when the washing tub rotates and air inside the washing tub flows to the outside, such that odor of laundry is removed. Therefore, a washing machine with an odor removal function capable of easily and quickly removing laundry odor is provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of a washing machine having a tub (21) for holding washing water, a drum (31) rotatably mounted in the tub (21), and a stem generator (51) for generating and supplying steam to the tub (21), for washing laundry with steam, and a washing machine thereof. The method includes a washing water supply step (S 10) for supplying washing water to the tub (21), a steam supply step (S80) for supplying the steam to the tub (21), and a main washing step (S110) for washing the laundry.

Abstract: Disclosed are a fragrance supply apparatus and a washing/drying machine having the same, wherein the washing/drying machine comprises a fragrance supply apparatus installed in a washing/drying machine body for collecting clothes to be treated such that a fragrance solution contained therein is uniformly effused by a pressure difference to be supplied into the clothes within the washing/drying machine body, whereby the fragrance solution can be supplied at a desired time so as to prevent an unnecessary consumption thereof, and also prevent an occurrence of a deviation of an effused amount due to an amount of the fragrance solution contained in the fragrance supply apparatus.

Abstract: A steam generator includes a water chamber for holding water, the water chamber having a heater mounted thereto for heating the water, a steam chamber for holding steam generated as the water is heated, a water supply line for supplying the water to the water chamber, and a steam discharge line for discharging steam from the steam chamber, wherein the water chamber has a vertical direction length relatively greater than a horizontal direction length and the steam chamber has a horizontal direction length relatively greater than the horizontal length of the water chamber. A dryer or washing machine may include the steam generator described herein.

Abstract: A dryer or a washing machine includes a cabinet which forms an exterior of the dryer or the washing machine. A drum is rotatably mounted in the cabinet and a steam generator is provided outside the drum to supply steam to the drum, where the steam generator includes a water chamber to hold water, the water chamber having a heater mounted thereto for heating the water. The steam chamber is provided above the water chamber to hold steam generated as the water is heated, where the steam chamber has a steam discharge opening for discharging the steam, where the steam discharge opening is provided with a separator for isolating a steam discharge area from other areas and where the water chamber has a vertical direction length relatively greater than a horizontal direction length.
