Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. Hereinafter, the'clothing management course' means a predetermined course for cleaning clothes in the storage room, but in addition to clothes, all items requiring periodic cleaning, such as bedding and dolls, are stored in the storage room 100 for cleaning. Specify in advance that it can be. In addition, the'forced dehumidification' according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below based on the case of the clothing management course, but can be applied to all courses in which the humidifying or dehumidifying operation of the storage room is performed.

1. Description of the multifunctional storage system structure

1 to 3, the multifunctional storage system according to the present invention includes a storage room 100, a machine room 200, a recirculation module 300, a memory unit 410, and a control unit 430.

The storage room 100 is a space in which clothing or the like is stored to remove contaminants or odors. To this end, after the interior of the storage room 100 rises to a high temperature, natural humidified air may be introduced as circulating air and circulated. Inside the storage chamber 100, a circulation filter detachable part (not shown), a circulation air inlet, and a circulation air outlet are located on the lower surface. The circulation filter desorption unit is an opening provided to easily detach it for repair, replacement, or the like of the circulation filter unit 229 located in the machine room 200.

The circulating air inlet and the circulating air outlet are openings through which the circulating air inside the storage chamber 100 flows in and out from the machine room 200, respectively. The circulating air inlet is formed to communicate with the fan unit 230 so that air is discharged from the machine room 200 toward the storage room 100, and the circulating air outlet is air from the storage room 100 toward the machine room 200. It is formed to circulate. In addition, the portion communicating with the circulating air inlet in the storage chamber 100 is formed to be inclined upward, so that the air introduced from the circulating air inlet has a predetermined angle upward from the bottom surface inside the storage chamber 100. It is formed to be discharged into the storage room 100. Accordingly, it is possible to increase the cleaning efficiency by making the circulating air discharged from the circulating air inlet come into contact with a larger area, such as clothes stored in the storage room 100, than when the circulating air is in a vertical direction.

The machine room 200 is a space that functions to circulate air by introducing air from the storage room 100 in the'Clothing Management Course' and filtering it, and then flowing natural humidified air as circulating air. The machine room 200 includes an intake port 210, a first flow path 220, a fan unit 230, a second flow path 240, an exhaust port 250, a dehumidifying section 260, a supply water tank 270, and a condensation water tank ( 280).

The intake port 210 is a portion that sucks outside air into the machine room 200. The exhaust port 250 is a portion that receives filtered outside air from the second flow path 240 and discharges it to the outside. Optionally, it can be opened or closed. A clean filter unit desorption unit (not shown) may be located in the intake port 210, and the clean filter unit 219 may be located. The clean filter unit 219 functions to filter outside air sucked in from the'air clean course', which is another course of the multi-functional storage system, and may include, but is not limited to, a pre-filter and a hepa filter.

The first flow path 220 communicates with the intake port 210, the second flow path 240, and the fan unit 230. The circulation filter unit 229 is located inside the first flow path 220. The circulation filter unit 229 may function to filter the circulation air. The circulation filter unit 229 may include a humidifying filter, so that when the water stored in the supply tank 270 is supplied to the humidifying filter, water is supplied in the process of circulating air passing through it to form natural humidified air. The user may remove or mount the circulating filter unit 229 by opening a door (not shown) and accessing the circulating filter attaching part (not shown).

As the operation of the fan unit 230, the air inside the storage chamber 100 flows into the second flow path 240 through the circulating air outlet, and again flows into the first flow path 220 toward the fan unit 230. . In this process, air passes through the humidifying filter of the circulation filter unit 229 to become natural humidified air. It passes through the second flow path 240 again and is supplied to the storage chamber 100 through the circulating air inlet. As this process is repeated, the circulating air continuously circulates between the storage room 100 and the machine room 200. The circulating air contains contaminants or odorous substances in the storage compartment 100, but these are not discharged to the outside, thereby providing a comfortable environment for the user.

The second flow path 240 receives filtered outside air or circulating air from the fan unit 230. The second flow path 240 is selectively communicated with any one of the storage chamber 100 and the exhaust port 250, and For control, a first flow path switching member 241 and a second flow path switching member 242 are included. The first flow path switching member 241 and the second flow path switching member 242 are paired to operate to change the flow path. In one embodiment, the first flow path switching member 241 and the second flow path switching member 242 may be a member that rotates around an axis, but any mechanism for selectively changing the flow path may be adopted.

The dehumidifying unit 260 performs a function of dehumidifying circulating air flowing through the storage chamber 100. The dehumidifying unit 260 may be, for example, a heat pump, but is not limited thereto. Heat may be generated in the process of the dehumidifying unit 260 performing dehumidification. This heat is not wasted and may be used in clothing management. For example, the storage chamber 100 is heated to about 50 to 70 degrees Celsius using the heat generated in the dehumidification process of the dehumidifying unit 260, and then circulated at room temperature from the second flow path 240 through the circulating air inlet. Air can be introduced to remove contaminants or odors, such as clothing. For another example, as described above, the heat generated during the dehumidification of the dehumidifying unit 260 is supplied to the humidifying filter of the circulation filter unit 229, or to the tubing connecting the supply tank 270 and the humidifying filter. Provided, it is also possible to heat natural humidified air functioning as circulating air. Of course, the above-described temperature is an example, and is not limited thereto, and may be variously changed. In addition, the dehumidifying unit 260 and the circulating filter unit 229 (that is, the humidifying filter) may be selectively operated so that any one does not interfere with each other.

The supply water tank 270 stores water to be supplied to the humidifying filter provided in the circulation filter unit 229. To this end, the circulation filter unit 229 is connected to the tubing. The condensate tank 280 collects and stores the condensate generated in the storage room 100, or the saturated wet air generated in the storage room 100 is the first flow path 220 or the second flow path 240 of the machine room 200. Collect and store the condensate generated during the process of entering and condensing. To this end, the storage chamber 100 and/or the first flow path 220 and/or the second flow path 220 are connected by tubing. In order to fill the water or discard the filled condensate, it is preferable that the user can easily access both the supply tank 270 and the condensate tank 280.

The machine room 200 may be located in any direction relative to the storage room 100, but is preferably located below the storage room 100. This is because condensed water or saturated humidified air condensed in the storage chamber 100 can be introduced into the machine room 200 by its own weight, and thus can be discharged to the outside through the condensed water tank 280.

The recirculation module 300 helps circulation of circulating air. Since the recirculation module 300 recirculates circulating air from the upper side of the storage room 100, convection is more smoothly performed throughout the storage room 100. In addition, by operating independently of whether or not the machine room 200 is operated, it may operate to remove contaminants such as clothes stored in the storage room 100. 1 to 3 are shown based on the state in which the recirculation module 300 is provided, but it is of course that the recirculation module 300 may not be provided, and even if it is provided, recirculation is performed when the fan unit 230 is operated. The module 300 may be configured not to operate.

The memory unit 410 is a space for storing information about the multifunctional storage system. In relation to the memory unit 410 of the present invention, the'first embodiment' is an embodiment of storing information on a specific mode of the multifunctional storage system. _The'second embodiment' is an embodiment of storing information on the progress time of the humidifying mode (M _humid ) and the remaining time of the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ) in real time with respect to the multifunctional storage system. In _the'third embodiment', the humidifying mode (M _humid ) or the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ) of the multifunctional storage system is finely divided into subdivided sections, and then information about the end of a specific section is repeatedly covered by the memory unit 410 It is an example to be written. On the other hand, the memory unit 410 may include EEP-ROM (Electronically Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory), but is not limited to this, as long as it is a form capable of storing a memory. The EEP-ROM can be written and deleted by the control unit 430. The EEP-ROM may be configured as a non-volatile memory in which information stored therein is maintained without being erased even when power supply is stopped due to a power-off.

When the multifunctional storage system is forcibly terminated, the control unit 430 loads the stored information from the memory unit 410 of the multifunctional storage system. After loading the information, it is determined whether it is a preset mode, and if it is a preset mode, a forced dehumidification is commanded to the machine room 200. The device used for the control unit 430 may include a microcomputer (MICOM), but is not limited to this, as long as it is a form that can be used for calculation and control. The microcomputer may be configured in the form of a microcomputer equipped with an arithmetic processing unit and a storage device.

Meanwhile, the memory unit 410 may store various programs or data in conjunction with the control unit 430. The program stored in the memory may be executed by the controller 430. Although the memory unit 410 and the control unit 430 are described in a separate configuration in this description, this means functional separation, not physical separation. The memory unit 410 and the control unit 430 may be integrally formed according to the implemented system and device.

2. Mode description of multi-functional storage system and operation method when forced shutdown

The machine room 200 may perform a _pre -processing mode (M _pre ), a humidifying mode (M _humid ), a dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), and a post-processing mode (M _post ), which are modes of the clothing management course. In the following, the clothes management course has been largely divided into a pre-processing mode (M _pre ), a humidifying mode (M _humid ), a dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), and a post-processing mode (M _post ), but additional modes related to cleaning of clothes are added. Can be. On the other hand, the operation of the clothing management course may operate the machine room 200 to be performed in the order of _pre- treatment mode (M _pre ), humidification mode (M _humid ), dehumidification mode (M _dry ) and post-treatment mode (M _post ), The pre-processing mode M _pre and the post-processing mode M _post are configured to omit some or all of them according to the user's selection.

In addition, the'forced shutdown' described below is divided into internal factors such as an operation error of the multi-function storage system, an external error such as a user's operation error and forced power off, in the case of an operation for which the user does not intend to forcefully terminate. Means a situation that encompasses all. Furthermore, it is a concept that includes all cases where the user is forced to quit due to the user's intention to terminate.

1) Humidification mode (M _humid ) Explanation

The operation of the machine room 200 components in the humidification mode (M _humid ) will be described with reference to FIG. 1.

In the humid mode (M _humid ), air sucked by the fan unit 230 passes through the circulation filter unit 229 and is formed as natural humidified air. The circulating air inlet and the circulating air outlet are opened to circulate the natural humidified air into the storage room 100. Here, the circulating filter unit 229 is provided with a humidifying filter, water is supplied from the supply tank 270 to the humidifying filter of the circulating filter unit 229, and is supplied to the supply tank 270 using a supply pump (not shown). It may be formed to force the stored water.

Humidification mode (M _humid) is composed of a wet the inner housing chamber 100 by circulating natural autumn psychrometric a storage chamber (100) environment. Thus, humidification can be applied to the clothes stored in the storage room 100. Air particles contained in natural humidified air are combined with contaminant particles and odor substance particles on clothing, and in the process of dehumidifying clothing during dehumidification mode (M _dry ), which will be described later, contaminant particles and odor substance particles are removed from clothing together. do.

Meanwhile, in FIG. 1, the fan unit 230 is described as a suction fan, but it may be formed of a discharge fan. In this case, arrangements of components inside the machine room 200 may be rearranged to be suitable for the discharge fan.

2) Dehumidification mode (M _dry ) In operation

The operation of the configuration of the machine room 200 in the dehumidification mode M _dry will be described with reference to FIG. 2. The operation of the machine room 200 configurations in the following dehumidification mode (M _dry ) is the same as the operation of the machine room 200 during forced dehumidification after the forced termination of the multifunctional storage system in the present invention.

In the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), the dehumidifying unit 260 inside the machine room 200 operates to perform dehumidification of the circulating air flowing through the storage chamber 100. For dehumidification of the storage chamber 100, the fan unit 230 is operated, so that dry air can be circulated, and the circulating air inlet and the circulating air outlet are opened. The condensed water tank 280 stores condensed water generated at this time. By performing the dehumidification mode (M _dry ), contaminant particles and odor substance particles on the clothing can be removed from the clothing.

The operation of the machine room 200 components in the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) is the same as that of the machine room 200 during forced dehumidification, but in order to dehumidify the storage chamber 100 in a short time, the output of the dehumidifying unit 260 May be designed to be larger than in the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), and the output of the fan unit 230 may also be designed to have a larger output so that the speed of air circulation is increased. In addition, the execution time of the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) may be formed differently from the time of the forced dehumidification, and the designer can properly set the time of the forced dehumidification within a range that does not damage the cloth of clothing stored in the storage room 100. Can be adjusted.

3) Pre-processing mode (M _pre ) And post-processing mode (M _post ) In operation

The operation of the configuration of the machine room 200 in the _pre- processing mode M _pre and the post-processing mode M _post will be described with reference to FIG. 3.

The pre-treatment mode (M _pre ) is a starting step of the clothing management course, and serves to primarily remove dust or contaminants having a relatively large particle size by discharging air and sticking to the cloth. The pre-treatment mode (M _pre ) is also referred to as an'air shower mode' and refers to a process of strongly blowing air. Before removing the contaminants and the like on the clothing inside the storage compartment 100 in earnest, it is possible to increase the cleaning efficiency of the clothing by pouring out the contaminants in advance. In the pre-processing mode M _pre , the circulating filter unit 229 and the dehumidifying unit 260 do not operate, and only the fan unit 230 is configured to operate.

The post-processing mode (M _post ) is a finishing step of the clothing management course, and by supplying air through the fan unit 230, the foreign substances that may remain in the clothing are removed once more, and the interior of the storage room 100 It plays a role in re-drying. In the pre-processing mode M _pre and the post-processing mode M _post , the operations of the machine room 200 components are the same, but the output of the fan unit 230 may be controlled differently. For example, the output of the fan unit 230 in the _pre- processing mode M _pre may be formed to be relatively larger than the output of the fan unit 230 in the _post- processing mode M _post .

On the other hand, in this specification, the pre-treatment mode (M _pre ) and the post-processing mode (M _post ) between the humidification mode (M _humid ) and dehumidification mode (M _dry ) is described, but the humidification mode (M _humid ) and dehumidification The mode (M _dry ) may be repeatedly performed a plurality of times, and the user may use the humidifying mode (M _humid ) and the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ) depending on the type of clothes or the cloth stored in the storage room 100. The number of executions can be adjusted.

In addition, in the pre-processing mode (M _pre ) and the post-processing mode (M _post ), both the storage room 100 and the machine room 200 are in communication with each other, and are preferably performed in a state where they are blocked from outside air. In particular, when performing the _pre- processing mode (M _pre ), if the machine room 200 is not blocked from outside air, foreign matter particles inside the storage room 100 may be discharged to the outside of the multi-functional storage system, where the multi-functional storage system is located. This is because the air quality of the space can be reduced. In the post-processing mode (M _post ), in order to block the influence on the humidity and temperature of the space where the multifunctional storage system is located, it is preferable that the machine room 200 is operated in a state where it is blocked from outside air.

3. Explanation of how to perform forced dehumidification when forced termination of the multifunctional storage system

4 is a flow chart of a forced dehumidification method after the forced termination of the multifunctional storage system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The forced dehumidification method after the forced termination of the multifunctional storage system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes steps S110 to S150.

In step S110, when the specific mode ends, information on the specific mode is stored in the memory unit 410. Here, the specific mode includes the aforementioned _pre- treatment mode (M _pre ), humidification mode (M _humid ), dehumidification mode (M _dry ), and post-treatment mode (M _post ). For example, when the pre-processing mode (M _pre ) ends, and when entering the humidifying mode (M _humid ), the control unit 430 transmits information about the end of the _pre- processing mode (M _pre ) to the memory unit 410, This is a step of storing in the memory unit 410.

Step S120 is a forced termination of the multifunctional storage system. This includes all cases where the multifunctional storage system is forcibly terminated, as described above, regardless of the user's intention.

Step S130 is a step in which information on a specific mode stored in the memory unit 410 is transmitted to the control unit 430 during normal operation after the forced termination of the multifunction storage system. In the memory unit 410, information about any one of the ends of the _pre- processing mode (M _pre ), the humidifying mode (M _humid ), the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), and the post-processing mode (M _post ) is stored, and during normal operation , The control unit 430 loads information on a specific mode stored from the non-volatile memory unit 410.

In step S140, when it is determined that the control unit 430 is forcibly terminated during any one of the preset modes using the information on the specific mode, it is controlled to perform forced dehumidification of the storage room 100. It is a step. Here, the preset mode may be set as a humidifying mode (M _humid ) and a dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), as described later, and the multi-functional storage system is forced to end during the humidifying mode (M _humid ) and dehumidifying mode (M _dry ) operation. If deemed to have been done, forced dehumidification is performed. More specifically, in the case of forced termination during the humidification mode (M _humid ), the residual moisture remains in the current storage compartment 100, so forced dehumidification is required, and the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) is in operation. In the case of forced termination, the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) was not performed for a sufficient time, and there is a possibility that residual moisture may remain inside the storage room 100.

The step S150 is a step in which the machine room 200 is operated by the control unit 430 and the storage room 100 is forcibly dehumidified. As described above, a duplicate description is omitted.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the forced dehumidification method after the forced termination of the multifunctional storage system will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 8B. The present invention describes a method for controlling the forced dehumidification of the storage room 100, for three embodiments. The'first embodiment' is a method of performing forced dehumidification using information of a mode that was performed at the time of the forced termination (see FIG. 5). _The'second embodiment' is a method of performing forced dehumidification using information on the duration of the humidification mode M _humid or the remaining time of the dehumidification mode M _dry (see FIG. 6). _The'third embodiment' subdivided the time of the humidification mode (M _humid ) and the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) into multiple sections again, and when each section is terminated, the forced dehumidification is performed using information on the end section. This is how it is done (see Figure 7).

In the first to third embodiments of the present invention, it is described as an example that the forced dehumidification is performed when it is determined that the forced termination is performed during the humidifying mode (M _humid ) or the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ), but the humidifying mode (M _The forced dehumidification may be performed on the same principle even when the operation is terminated during another predetermined mode operation, not during the _humid ) or dehumidification mode (M _dry ) operation.

1) First embodiment (Method of performing forced dehumidification for a predetermined time)

The'first embodiment' will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

When the specific mode of the multi-functional storage system is ended, information on the specific mode that is ended is stored in the memory unit 410. In order to store the memory unit 410, the control unit 430 and the memory unit 410 are configured to transmit and receive electrical signals, and preferably, the memory unit 410 stores information about a specific mode terminated by a protocol method. Transfer to. As described above, the information on the specific mode that has been ended is overwritten in the memory unit 410. At this time, since it is composed of a non-volatile memory, even if the power of the multifunctional storage system is cut off, the memory unit 410 may maintain the last overwritten information stored therein.

When the multi-functional storage system is forcibly terminated and then again operates normally, the control unit 430 loads the information stored in the memory unit 410. Then, the controller 430 determines whether the information on the specific mode is forcibly terminated during the operation of the humidifying mode (M _humid ) or the dehumidifying mode (M _dry ) of the multifunctional storage system.

If the multi-function storage system proceeds in the order of _pre- processing mode (M _pre ), humidifying mode (M _humid ), dehumidifying mode (M _dry ) and post-processing mode (M _post ), the humidifying mode (M _humid ) is in operation. When the multi-function storage system is forcibly terminated, information on the end of the _pre- processing mode M _pre will be stored in the memory unit 410. In addition, when the multifunctional storage system is forcibly terminated during the dehumidifying mode M _dry , information on the termination of the humidifying mode M _humid is stored in the memory unit 410.

Controller 430 when the information on the particular mode loaded from the memory unit 410, information on the end of the pre-processing mode (M _pre), and considered to be forced in the humidification mode (M _humid) operation is ended, the humidification mode, In the case of information on the termination of (M _humid ), it is considered to have been forcibly terminated during the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) operation. As such, the control unit 430 performs a calculation process for this determination, and when the information on the loaded specific mode is information on the termination of the _pre- processing mode (M _pre ) or the humidifying mode (M _humid ), the machine room ( 200).

The forced dehumidification time is operated at a preset time, and preferably can be designed to be performed for 20 minutes, and by preventing excessive dehumidification of the storage room 100, it is possible to minimize the power consumption of the multifunctional storage system.

Also, the preset time may be determined as a specific time, but may be changed according to circumstances. For example, it can be changed depending on the season, because the humidity of the space varies by season. The preset time may be increased during a high humidity period, such as in summer, and the preset time may be reduced during a dry period such as winter. To this end, the control unit 430 may be configured to transmit and receive wireless information about the weather to receive external weather information.

2) The second embodiment (how to perform forced dehumidification based on the time of execution)

The'second embodiment' will be described with reference to FIG. 6.

The information on the progress time and the remaining time of the mode of the multi-function storage system is transmitted from the control unit 430 and is configured to be continuously stored in the memory unit 410 in real time.

If the multi-functional storage system is forcibly terminated and then operates normally again, the control unit 430 loads the information stored in the memory unit 410. In addition, the information transmitted to the control unit 430 determines whether the operation of the multifunctional storage system is forcibly terminated during the humidification mode (M _humid ) or the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) operation. When it is determined that the humidification mode (M _humid ) is forcibly terminated during the operation, the forced dehumidification time of the storage room 100 can be flexibly adjusted through information on the progress time of the humidification mode (M _humid ) before the forced termination.

For example, if the forward humidification mode (M _humid) five minutes may perform forced dehumidification corresponding to 5 minutes of running time of the humidifying mode (M _humid). The humidity inside the storage room 100 depends on the duration of the humidification mode (M _humid ), so the forced dehumidification time is not fixed to a specific value, and is performed to perform an appropriate time according to the humidity inside the storage room 100 to be. The present invention can perform proper forced dehumidification in consideration of the humidity information of the storage room 100 without having a humidity sensor inside the storage room 100. As described above, for carrying out the present invention, there is no need to provide a humidity sensor inside the storage room 100, and thus problems caused by frequent errors of the humidity sensor can be prevented.

When the operation of the multi-functional storage system is forcibly terminated during the dehumidification mode (M _dry ), all of the preset dehumidification mode (M _dry ) time has not progressed, and the state of clothing can be worn immediately by the user. It may not be in a dried state. Accordingly, it is necessary to perform forced dehumidification even in the case of forced termination during the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) operation, and the forced dehumidification time of the storage room 100 can be set using information on the remaining time in the dehumidification mode (M _dry ). have. For example, if the preset dehumidification mode (M _dry ) duration is 20 minutes, the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) execution time until immediately before the forced termination of the multifunctional storage system, that is, the actual dehumidification mode (M _dry ) duration is 5 minutes , Forced dehumidification can be performed corresponding to 15 minutes, which is the remaining time that did not proceed.

Meanwhile, as a modification of the above-described second embodiment, the control unit 430 and the memory unit 410 may be configured to transmit information on the start of the specific mode when the specific mode starts. In the above modified example, when the specific mode is started, the control unit 430 transmits only information about the start of the specific mode to the memory unit 410. At this time, the memory unit 410 is configured to separately check the progress time of a specific mode, and may be configured to store information about the progress time in real time or in seconds. When the multi-function storage system is forcibly terminated, the memory unit 410 may maintain information about a specific mode progress time. The modified example may prevent a problem due to a communication error between the control unit 430 and the memory unit 410 by reducing the number of information transmissions between the control unit 430 and the memory unit 410.

3) The third embodiment (how to perform forced dehumidification based on the finished section)

The'third embodiment' will be described with reference to b of FIGS. 7 to 8.

For each mode of the multi-function storage system, sections are divided in detail and stored in the memory unit 410 at the end of the section. Specifically, when the operation of the multi-functional storage system is a humidification mode (M _humid ), the memory unit 410 is configured to terminate the corresponding section every time the subdivided section of the predetermined humidification mode (M _humid ) execution time ends. Information is stored.

When the multi-functional storage system is forcibly terminated and then operates normally, the control unit 430 loads the information stored in the memory unit 410. Information on the actual operation time of a specific mode can be derived through information on an end section within a specific mode. The specific mode means a humidifying mode (M _humid ) or a dehumidifying mode (M _dry ).

The humidification mode (M _humid ) consists of N sections that are subdivided according to the passage of _{time.If it} is forcibly terminated in the K+1 section, it means that the humidification mode (M _humid ) was performed up to the K section, up to the K section. It is configured to perform the forced dehumidification corresponding to the progress time. Here, the corresponding forced dehumidification may mean adjusting the temperature of the dehumidifying unit 260 and the output of the fan unit 230 or adjusting the forced dehumidification time.

In more detail, if the four sections are terminated during the humidification mode (M _humid ), information on the termination of the four sections is stored in the memory unit 410. When the multi-function storage system is forcibly terminated during the 5-section process, information on the termination of the 4-section is stored in the memory unit 410. When the multi-functional storage system operates normally again, the control unit 430 loads information on the end of the four sections from the memory unit 410, and forcibly dehumidifies corresponding to the duration of the humidification mode (M _humid ) up to four sections. It is configured to perform.

On the other hand, the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) is composed of M sections, and when it is forcibly terminated in the L+1 section, it means that the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) is performed up to the L section, from the L+1 section to the M section. It is configured to perform forced dehumidification corresponding to the remaining time, which is the time of. As in the humidification mode (M _humid ), the corresponding forced dehumidification may mean adjusting the temperature of the dehumidifying unit 260 and the output of the fan unit 230 or controlling the forced dehumidification time.

In more detail, the dehumidification mode (M _dry ) may be composed of a total of 10 sections. If the fourth section is ended during the dehumidification mode (M _dry ), information on the termination of the fourth section is stored in the memory unit 410. When the multi-function storage system is forcibly terminated during the 5-section process, information on the termination of the 4-section is stored in the memory unit 410. When the multi-functional storage system operates normally again, the control unit 430 loads information on the end of 4 sections from the memory unit 410, and the remaining time in the dehumidification mode (M _dry ), which is a time from 5 to 10 sections. It is configured to perform forced dehumidification corresponding to.

The number of the above-described sections is an example, and is not limited thereto, and may be set according to the designer's selection, and the time of each unit section may not be formed in consideration of a saturated water vapor curve or a humidity curve.

As described above, the present specification has been described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily understand and reproduce the present invention, but these are merely exemplary, and those skilled in the art can make various modifications and equivalents from the embodiments of the present invention.
