| 20080264114 | DRUM TYPE WASHING MACHINE - A washing machine includes a housing which forms an exterior of the washing machine and a tub mounted inside of the housing, the tub having an opening through which laundry may be inserted and removed. A drum is rotatably mounted inside of the tub, the drum having an opening substantially aligned with the opening of the tub, through which laundry may be inserted and removed. A foreign matter shield is configured to prevent foreign matter from entering a space between the tub and the drum by maintaining a gap between the opening of the drum and the tub at a predetermined size during movement of the drum relative to the tub from an initial position to a lower position. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090044574 | Drum-type washing machine - A drum-type washing machine is disclosed, in which bearings are received in the bearing housing assembly. The bearing housing assembly may include a support portion coupled to a motor, and a coupling portion connected to a damper bracket. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20090249840 | WASHING MACHINE - A washing machine includes a cabinet constituting the external appearance of the washing machine, a tub mounted in the cabinet for receiving wash water, a drum rotatably mounted in the tub for receiving laundry to be washed, a circulation unit for circulating wash water in the inner lower part of the tub through the upper part of the tub, and at least one circulation nozzle for spraying the wash water, supplied by the circulation unit, inwardly of the drum along a rotation axis of the drum in a longitudinal direction of the drum. According to the present invention, it is possible to improve washing or rinsing efficiency of the washing machine. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090255062 | CONTROLLING METHOD OF WASHING MACHINE - A controlling method of a washing machine is disclosed. A controlling method of a washing machine includes spinning to rotate a drum at a first speed to dehydrate the laundry, water draining to drain water from the drum, water supplying to supply water to a tub, while rotating the drum at a second speed for the laundry to be closely in contact with an inner circumferential surface of the drum, and penetration rinsing while rotating the drum at the second speed or at a third speed to rinse the laundry. According to the controlling method, a time taken to perform a rinsing cycle may be reduced. Furthermore, rinsing efficiency may be improved together with the reduced time of the rinsing cycle. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090308110 | Washing machine - A washing machine is provided. The washing machine controls a dehydration rotation speed by detecting a phase difference between a ball balancer and the laundry. Further, the washing machine controls a dehydration rotation speed at a dehydration segment based on a dehydration rotation speed of a driving device. Thereby, the washing machine minimizes energy using in a dehydration process by accelerating the dehydration rotation speed at a point at which a phase difference between the ball balancer and the laundry is a maximum. Further, by accelerating the dehydration rotation speed at a point at which the phase difference is a maximum, a vibration of the washing machine is remarkably reduced. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20110041566 | DRUM-TYPE WASHING MACHINE - A drum-type washing machine is disclosed, in which bearings are received in the bearing housing assembly. The bearing housing assembly may include a support portion coupled to a motor, and a coupling portion connected to a damper bracket. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110197163 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION IN MOBILE TERMINAL - An information provision method and apparatus of a mobile terminal is provided for managing and providing information items associated with a plurality of communication accounts of a user in an integrated manner. An information provision method for a mobile terminal includes configuring a plurality of identity informations associated with communications of a specific contact item; detecting an input for selecting an integrated contact management menu; and displaying the identity informations or communication informations associated with individual identity informations in an integrated manner. | 08-11-2011 |
