Abstract: The laundry processing device according to the present invention comprises: a first washing unit for doing laundry; and a second washing unit having a washing space independent from the first washing unit and provided with a tub of a smaller capacity than the first washing unit, wherein the first washing unit comprises: a first display unit; a first laundry amount detecting unit for measuring the amount of laundry in the first washing unit; and a first control unit for displaying, on the first display unit, a guide message recommending use of the second washing unit if the amount of laundry measured by the first laundry amount detecting unit is less than a first set value. When the amount of laundry is relatively small, the user is induced to use the second washing unit, thereby reducing power consumption.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for handling laundry and a control method thereof, wherein the device for handling laundry, equipped with a plurality of washing units that wash independently of one another, sets a washing course in order that, when washing is being carried out by a first washing unit and a second washing unit at the same time, a specific operation is not carried out by the first washing unit and the second washing unit at the same time, the washing course being set by combining the washing courses of the plurality of washing units, and thus, operational delays resulting from simultaneous operation are prevented, vibrations are reduced, momentary increases in power consumption are prevented, protecting the device for handling laundry and improving energy consumption efficiency.

Abstract: The laundry processing device according to the present invention comprises a plurality of washing units which wash independently of each other, and if vibration exceeding a configured value is generated while a single washing unit is washing, then water is supplied to rest of the washing units and a motor is rotated, thereby reducing the vibration.

Abstract: A network system includes at least one unit selected from between an energy consumption unit receiving energy and an energy management unit managing the energy consumption unit, wherein an energy usage amount or an energy usage cost of the energy consumption unit are controllable, and the energy usage amount or the energy usage cost when the unit is controlled based on information associated with at least an energy cost is smaller than an energy usage amount or an energy usage cost when the unit is controlled without using the information related to at least the energy cost, and a display device detachably coupled to the energy consumption unit, wherein availability of the display device is determined according to a communication signal transmitted to the energy receiving unit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a laundry treating apparatus including a cabinet, a control panel having a power key and a display panel provided to one side of the cabinet, a display MICOM for controlling a frame to be displayed on a display of the display panel, a main MICOM for putting a load into operation according to a washing stroke applied thereto, and a standby power MICOM for generating a power supply signal to supply power to the display MICOM and the main MICOM in response to a power key applied signal generated as the power key is operated.

Abstract: A network system is provided. The network includes: at least one component selected from an energy receiving unit receiving energy and an energy management unit managing the energy receiving unit. The energy receiving unit or the energy management unit receives energy rate related information; an energy usage amount or a usage rate of when the component is controlled on the basis of at least the energy rate related information is less than that of when the component is controlled without the basis of at least energy rate related information; and if the energy rate related information is high cost information, a function of one component constituting the energy receiving unit is limited and a function of another component constituting the energy receiving unit is performed.
