Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2832914A1] The present application discloses a laundry processing apparatus (100) including a storage tub (200) configured to store laundry, and a steam supply mechanism (300) configured to supply steam into the storage tub (200). The steam supply mechanism (300) includes a steam generator (420) with a wall surface (431, 432) defining a chamber (430) for generating the steam, a heater (425) configured to heat the wall surface (431, 432), and a water supply mechanism (500) configured to supply water to the wall surface (431, 432) heated by the heater (425). A period to supply the water into the chamber (430) is shorter than a period without supplying the water into the chamber (430) during a water supply operation to intermittently supply the water into the chamber (430) from the water supply mechanism (500).
