An operation method for a combination dryer is disclosed. The present invention relates to a combination dryer, and more particularly, to an operation method for a combination dryer which enables air in a drying drum and a cabinet for drying the laundry to circulate continuously and enables condensed water generated in the circulation process to perform a refreshing cycle by using the water.

A drum type laundry machine according to the invention is capable of efficiently supplying steam to laundry in a drum. When the steam is supplied into the drum 11, a blower 39 is rotated at a higher rotation speed than in a heat drying operation (e.g., 5200 rpm) to provide greater air blowing power. Further, a projection 36 provided in an air passage narrows the air passage, so that an air flow rate is increased in the vicinity of a cooling water supply port 34. Therefore, cooling water supplied into a first air passage 32 is finely disintegrated on air, and supplied to a heater 43 in a heater housing 42 through a second air passage 33 and a blower chamber 40. The cooling water is heated by the heater 43 to be evaporated into steam. The steam thus generated is borne on the air and supplied into the drum 11 from a blowing port 44 through an air inlet port 9f.

A washing machine has a partial washing apparatus fitted on an outer surface of a main unit having a washing tub housed therein. The partial washing apparatus is movable between an use position and a non-use position. When the partial washing apparatus is in the use position, its washing portion faces a laundry entrance from outside the main unit; when the partial washing apparatus is in the non-use position, its washing portion is retracted from the position in which it faces the laundry entrance. The washing portion achieves washing by using supersonic waves generated by a supersonic vibration device. The laundry entrance is covered with a lid composed of a front lid and a rear lid coupled together so as to be foldable in two. The rear lid has a gate opening formed therein to let the partial washing apparatus pass through. The gate opening is partially or completely closed by a tray for sustaining a piece of laundry. The tray has a drain outlet formed in its bottom surface, and the drain outlet is open toward or communicates with a drain path leading to outside the washing machine. When the partial washing apparatus is in the non-use position, the tray rotates together with the rear lid.
