Abstract: An automatic level controlling apparatus (100) for supporting an appliance includes a hollow leg body (110), a piston (140) inserted in the hollow leg body (110), a spring (130) seated on an upper portion of the piston (140), a cap (120) disposed on an upper portion of the piston (140) to support an upper portion of the spring (130), a frictional member (150) disposed around the piston (140), and a piston rod (160) coupled to the piston (140) and supported on a floor.

Abstract: A washing machine and a controlling method thereof are provided. The washing machine and controlling method use a sensor to sense a load of laundry at a predetermined point during a wash cycle, and controls the rotating speed of a drum based on whether the sensed load of laundry is a small load or a single article, in order to untangle laundry and implement a spin cycle.
