  • Patent number: 11377771
    Abstract: A washing machine includes: a tub; a transmission coil provided in the tub and transmitting power wirelessly; an ammeter measuring an input current value of the transmission coil; a cylindrical drum disposed inside the tub and configured to rotate; a balancer for reducing unbalance during rotation of the drum; and a controller controlling the ammeter and the balancer. The balancer includes: a reception coil provided in the drum and configured to generate power from magnetic field formed by the transmission coil; drive modules driven by power of the reception coil and provided in the drum; and at least one balancing weight that moves along a circumference of the drum by a driving force of each drive module, and changes a center of gravity of the drum. The controller determines a position of the balancing weights based on the input current value when the drum rotates.

  • Publication number: 20220154388
    Abstract: A washing machine is configured to perform washing using carbon dioxide. The washing machine includes a first housing that defines an opening and an inner space, a drum disposed in the inner space of the first housing and configured to receive laundry, a barrier that is coupled to the first housing and seals the opening of the first housing, and a second housing that faces a surface of the barrier and is coupled to the first housing. The barrier defines (i) a first space between the first housing and the barrier from leaking and (ii) a second space between the second housing, where the barrier is configured to block liquid carbon dioxide injected into the first space from leaking into the second space.

  • Patent number: 11091869
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a balancer and a washing machine including the same. The balancer includes at least two drive modules which provide a driving force; at least two gear rails having a ring shape which are gear-coupled to each of the drive modules and rotated; at least two balancing weights which move along a circumference of a drum by the rotation of each of the gear rails and change a center of gravity of the drum; a reception coil which generates power from a magnetic field formed by a transmission coil; and a guide case which accommodates at least the reception coil and the drive modules.

  • Patent number: 8178063
    Abstract: The present invention relates to conversion of exhaust gas containing nitrogen oxide (NOx) such as NO, NO2 and N2O into N2 and H2O through catalytic reaction with injection of a reducing agent such as ammonia and urea. A fabrication method of zeolite honeycomb type catalyst for reducing nitrogen oxide of the present invention includes: (a) obtaining an inorganic binder by mixing and uniformly peptizing pseudo-boehmite, distilled water and a pH adjuster; (b) obtaining a paste by mixing and kneading zeolite, the inorganic binder, an organic binder and distilled water; (c) extruding the paste into an extrudate having a through pore of a regular structure; and (d) drying and heat treating the extrudate.
