Abstract

Provided is a laundry transporting device with a nozzle in a washer configured to spray wash water, rinsing water or fabric softener to a laundry L loaded on a supporting plate B at a state of unfolded. The laundry transporting device includes a transporting means installed for transporting the laundry L to one direction and a nozzle means installed for spraying the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener to the laundry L transported by the transporting means.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A laundry transporting device with a nozzle in a washer configured to spray wash water, rinsing water or fabric softener to a laundry L loaded on a supporting plate B at a. state of unfolded comprising:
 a transporting means installed for transporting the laundry L to one direction; and a nozzle means installed for spraying the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener to the laundry L transported by the transporting means,   wherein the transporting means includes a first rotating member  100  disposed respectively on left and right sides on a front and installed to rotate in place by a power source, a fixing rod  110  fixed by connecting the compatible first rotating member  100  and at least one transporting roller  120  installed so as to transport to one direction by being in contact with the laundry L while rotating in place by being mounted on the fixing rod  110  at a predetermined interval.   
     
     
         2 . The laundry transporting device with a nozzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the transporting roller  120  is in the form of a cavity with an inner space  121  in a longitudinal direction; and
 is installed to rotate in place together with the fixing rod  110  by inserting the fixing rod  110  into the inner space. 
 
     
     
         3 . The laundry transporting device with a nozzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the nozzle means includes a second rotating member  200  disposed respectively on left and right sides on a front and installed to rotate in place by a power source, a supplying pipe  210  installed to flow the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener by being connected to a water tank, a valve  220  mounted to control the flow of the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener flowing to the supplying pipe  210 , at least one nozzle  230  installed to spray the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener of the supplying pipe  210  to the laundry L, and at least one detecting sensor  240  installed to detect the laundry L entering and passing the nozzle  230 . 
     
     
         4 . The laundry transporting device with a nozzle according to  claim 3 , wherein the supplying pipe  210  is installed by penetrating into the inner space of the transporting roller  120  prepared in the longitudinal direction. 
     
     
         5 . The laundry transporting device with a nozzle according to  claim 4 , wherein the nozzle means further includes at least one separating plate  250  fixed to the fixing rod  110  so as to ensure the in-situ rotation of the supplying pipe  210  by being placed at the inner end of the opposite supplying pipe  210 , if two supplying pipes  210  are arranged parallel in front and valves  220  are installed at the outer ends of these supplying pipes  210 , respectively; and
 the detecting sensors  240  are placed close to each supplying pipe  210 , and one or two supplying pipes  210  are installed to rotate depending on the presence or absence of detection. 
 
     
     
         6 . The laundry transporting device with a nozzle according to  claim 5 , wherein the nozzle  230  reciprocates in the angle range of 5 to 45 degrees to the traveling direction of the laundry L when the laundry L enters, reciprocates in the angle range of 45 degrees on the left and right sides with reference to the downward vertical line while the laundry L passes, and reciprocates in the angle range of 5 to 45 degrees in the reverse direction to the traveling direction of the laundry L after the laundry L passes. 
     
     
         7 . A method for operating the laundry transporting device of  claim 6 , comprising:
 a step S 10  of detecting the laundry L entering with being placed on the supporting plate by the detecting sensor  240 ;
 a step S 20  of spraying the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener while the nozzle  230  reciprocates in the angle range of 5 to 45 degrees to the traveling direction of the laundry L when the detecting sensor  240  detects the laundry L; 
 a step S 30  of spraying the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener while the nozzle  230  reciprocates in the angle range of 45 degrees on the left and right sides with reference to the downward vertical line while the laundry L passes; 
 a step S 40  of spraying the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener while the nozzle  230  reciprocates in the angle range of 5 to 45 degrees in the reverse direction to the traveling direction of the laundry L on the sides when the detecting sensor  240  recognizes the rear end of the laundry L; and 
 a step S 50  of returning to the step S 20  when the detecting sensor  240  detects the next laundry L and stopping the operation if not detected. 
   
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 7 , wherein, in the step S 10 , at least one detecting sensor  240  installed on both sides on the front detects the laundry L, one or two valves  220  are open depending on the presence or absence of detecting the laundry L in the detecting sensor  240 , and the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener are supplied to one or two supplying pipe  210  to spray through the nozzle  230 . 
     
     
         9 . The laundry transporting device with a nozzle according to  claim 2 , wherein the nozzle means includes a second rotating member  200  disposed respectively on left and right sides on a front and installed to rotate in place by a power source, a supplying pipe  210  installed to flow the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener by being connected to a water tank, a valve  220  mounted to control the flow of the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener flowing to the supplying pipe  210 , at least one nozzle  230  installed to spray the wash water, the rinsing water or the fabric softener of the supplying pipe  210  to the laundry L, and at least one detecting sensor  240  installed to detect the laundry L entering and passing the nozzle  230 .
