Embodiment Construction

[0059] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0060] Hereinafter, referring to FIGS. 3 to 5 , a steam generator used in a laundry device according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0061] As shown in FIG. 3 , the steam generator 200 of the first embodiment to which the water supply pipe 105 and the steam supply pipe 106 are connected is installed in the cabinet 101 of the drum washing machine 100 .

[0062] Preferably, the steam generator 200 is installed on the tub 102, so the passage connecting the water supply valve 104 and the steam supply pipe 106 has a relatively short distance, and the steam generator 200 is easy to maintain and inspect.

[0063] The steam generator 200 includes a tank body 210 and an overwater supply preventing unit 220 .

[0064] The tank 210 forms the appearance of the steam generator 200 and stores water s...

Abstract

Disclosed is a laundry device having a steam generator, which prevents water from being excessively supplied to a case and steam generated from the case from adversely flowing toward a water supply valve, and removes overpressure due to steam generated in the case. A water oversupply prevention unit for preventing the water from being excessively supplied to the case is a hollow floater, which moves vertically according to the amount of the water supplied to the case to open and close a water supply hole. A backflow prevention unit for preventing steam generated from the case from adversely flowing toward the water supply hole is a check valve, which allows the water to be supplied only to the inside of the case, prevents the steam generated from the case from flowing toward the water supply valve, and is installed between a water supply hole and the water supply valve. An air exhauster for removing Overpressure due to steam generated in the case is a relief valve, which is opened to remove overpressure due to steam generated in the case and is installed in a sub pipe branched from a steam supply pipe. Thereby, the steam generator is effectively operated, thus lengthening the lifespan of the laundry device and improving the reliability of the laundry device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a laundry device, and more particularly, to a laundry device having a steam generator that prevents wash water supplied to the inside of the steam generator and / or steam generated from the steam generator from flowing toward the water supply valve. reverse flow, and eliminate the excess pressure created in the steam generator. Background technique [0002] In general, a laundry unit is a general term for equipment used to wash clothes and bedding. [0003] The laundry apparatus includes a washing machine having only a washing function, a washing machine having washing and drying functions, and a dryer having only a drying function. [0004] Washing machines are classified into a pulsator type washing machine which washes clothes using a flow of water generated by rotating a plate-like pulsator, and a drum washing machine which uses the force of washing water supplied to a horizontally placed drum and clothes. drop and...
