When the compressor P and the circulation duct 711 are provided in a stacked structure along the height direction of the machine room, it is possible to secure the longitudinal space (z-axis space) of the machine room 7 among the interior spaces of the machine room 7. There is an effect that various devices required for clothes processing can be further provided in the machine room.

In this case, the water supply unit 72 is provided on the bottom surface of the machine room 7 but may be located in a space between the compressor P and the door body 741. However, as shown in Figure 8 (b), when the circulating duct 711 is provided on the upper portion of the compressor (P), the condensate recovery unit is a recovery pipe connecting the water collecting unit 7115 and the storage unit 721 ( 731), may be provided as a valve 735 that opens and closes the recovery pipe 731 by a control unit (not shown).

Meanwhile, the water supply unit 72 may be provided as shown in FIG. 9. That is, the circulation duct 711, the compressor P, and the storage unit 721 of the moisture supply unit may be provided by being stacked along the height direction of the machine room 7.

In this case, the condensate recovery unit may be provided with a recovery pipe 731 connecting the water collecting portion 7115 and the storage portion 721, and a valve 735 that opens and closes the recovery pipe.

In addition, the water supply unit 72 may be provided to receive water through a water supply unit 723 directly connected to the water supply tank 743, but the water stored in the temporary storage unit 724 as shown in FIG. It may be provided to be supplied.

That is, the inside of the machine room 7 is provided with a temporary storage unit 724 connected to the water supply tank 743 when the door body 741 is detached, and the storage unit 721 is connected to a connection tube 7231 It may be provided to receive the water stored in the temporary storage unit 724 through the pump 7233.

The temporary storage unit 724 is stored in the water discharged from the water supply tank 743 and the auxiliary storage unit 7243 to which the connection pipe 7231 is connected, and is inserted into the drain port 743 of the water supply tank to support the auxiliary storage unit ( 7243) may be provided as a withdrawal pipe (7241) for supplying water.

 On the other hand, the above-described clothing processing apparatus 100 is described on the basis of the case where both the machine room 7 and the auxiliary receiving space 9 having different heights are provided on the bottom surface of the receiving space 31, but FIG. 10 (a) As shown in the bottom surface of the receiving space 31, only the machine room 7 may be provided.

In this case, the air discharge portion 35, the air suction portion 36 and the moisture discharge portion 37 should be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the machine room (7). However, if the air discharge unit 35 is provided on the side of the machine room 7, there will be an effect of supplying air to clothes located between the side of the machine room 7 and the inner peripheral surface of the receiving space 31.

Although not shown in the drawings, the above-described effect may be expected even when the water discharge unit 37 is provided on the side of the machine room 7.

On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 10 (b), when both the machine room 7 and the auxiliary receiving space 9 having different heights are provided on the bottom surface of the receiving space 31, the air outlet 35 and At least one of the air intake parts 36 is provided at a position higher than the auxiliary receiving space 9, but may be provided on the side of the machine room 7.

The clothing support portion 5 provided in the clothing processing apparatus 100 of the present invention may further include a second hanger bar 58 for refreshing long clothing (such as a coat or a blanket).

When the long clothing is mounted on the hanger bar 51 (hereinafter referred to as a first hanger bar for convenience of description), the space between both sides of the clothes facing the first hanger bar 51 is narrow, so that the storage space 31 is reduced. There may be a problem that the supplied moisture or air is not delivered to the garment.

The second hanger bar 58 provided in the present invention is for solving the above-described problem. As shown in FIG. 11, the second hanger bar 58 is provided on the first hanger bar 51 and is second. It is a means for facing both sides of the clothes mounted on the hanger bar 58 to maintain a constant distance (L2).

To this end, the second hanger bar 58 is rotatably fixed to a first body 581 that is rotatably fixed to one surface of the first hanger bar 51, but is rotatably fixed to the first hanger bar 51. One body 581 may be provided as the second body 585 located on the opposite side of the surface provided.

11 (a), the first body 581 and the second body 585 extend from the first hanger bar 51 in a direction perpendicular to the support bar 53, and then the receiving space It may be provided in a shape bent toward the upper surface (direction in which the slot 557 is provided) of 31.

That is, the first body 581 is provided in the shape of a bar (bar), the clothes are supported, and the first support portion 5801 provided in parallel with the first hanger bar 51, the opposite ends of the first support portion It may be provided with a first bent portion (5813) that is provided by being bent, and a first engaging portion (5815) extending from each of the first bent portions and coupling the first support portion to the first hanger bar (51).

The second body 585 may be provided in the same shape as the first body 581. In this case, the second body 585 is provided in a bar shape in which laundry is supported, and the first hanger bar 51 is provided. A second supporting portion 5551 provided side by side, a second bending portion 5855 provided with both ends facing the second supporting portion bent, extending from each second bending portion, and the second supporting portion being a first hang bar ( 51) will be provided as a second coupling portion (5855).

Meanwhile, as illustrated in FIG. 12, a first gear 583 rotatably coupled to a hanger bar 51 is fixed to each first coupling portion 5815, and each of the second coupling portions 5855 is The second gear 587 coupled to the first gear 583 is rotatably provided on the hanger bar 51 is fixed to.

This is for the user to rotate only one of the first body 581 and the second body 585 so that the other is also rotated.

To this end, a gear receiving groove 515 in which the first gear 583 and the second gear 587 are respectively accommodated is provided at both ends of the hanger bar 51.

In this case, the first gear 583 is fixed to be rotatable inside the gear receiving groove 515 by the first rotation shaft 584 provided in the gear receiving groove 515, and the second gear 587 is The second rotation shaft 588 provided in the gear receiving groove 515 is rotatably fixed inside the gear receiving groove 515.

Furthermore, since the second gear 587 is coupled to the first gear 583 inside the gear receiving groove 515, when the first gear 583 rotates, the second gear 587 is the first gear It rotates in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of (583).

A slot support bar 513 for supporting the slot 557 may be further provided on the upper surface of the first hanger bar 51 having the above-described structure. Accordingly, the first hanger bar 51 and the second hanger bar 58 will reciprocate within the receiving space 51 when the slot inserting part 555 inserted into the slot 557 rotates. The principle that the first hanger bar 51 moves within the accommodation space 31 has been described above, and thus detailed description thereof will be omitted.

11 and 12, since the slot 557 is only an example of a form spaced apart from the upper surface of the first hanger bar 51 by the slot support bar 513, the slot 557 is shown as an example. As shown in 2, it may be provided fixed to the upper surface of the first hanger bar (51).

Since the present invention may be implemented in various forms, the scope of the right is not limited to the above-described embodiment. Therefore, if the modified embodiment includes the components of the claims of the present invention, it should be regarded as belonging to the scope of the present invention.
