Benefits of technology

The patent describes a portable laundry treating apparatus that can remove dirt from laundry that is contaminated in a specific area. This means that the device can clean the laundry by removing the dirt that has accumulated on it.

Problems solved by technology

However, even when only a portion of laundry is contaminated with dirt (i.e., laundry is contaminated locally), laundry should be put into the tub in which wash water is received (i.e., whole laundry should be immersed in wash water).
Therefore, the above-described conventional laundry treating apparatus is inappropriate to remove dirt from laundry contaminated locally.
