An automatic height adjustment leg of a laundry handling apparatus according to the present invention comprises a cylinder mounted to a base of a laundry handling apparatus; a piston movably arranged inside the cylinder; a elastic member installed in the cylinder so as to elastically support the piston; and a leg penetrating the cylinder and fixed to the piston. There are provided advantages that the horizontality of the laundry handling apparatus may be automatically adjusted as the piston and leg move on and vibration may be absorbed and reduced by the elastic member.

What is claimed is: 1. An automatic height adjustment leg of a laundry handling apparatus, comprising: a cylinder mounted to a base of a laundry handling apparatus; a piston movably arranged inside the cylinder; an elastic member installed in the cylinder so as to elastically support the piston; a leg penetrating the cylinder and fixed to the piston, wherein the cylinder comprises a cylinder body whose top surface is open; and a cylinder cap connected to the cylinder body to cover the top surface of the cylinder body and supporting the elastic member, wherein the cylinder body and cylinder cap are screw-connected, and wherein the cylinder cap comprises a first protusion, the cylinder body comprises a second protrusion, and the first protrusion can be locked and fixed to the second protrusion to thereby lock the cylinder cap to the cylinder body. 2. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 1, wherein the first protrusion and the second protrusion are formed in a horizontal sawtooth shape in which a plurality of protrusions are arranged along a connection direction of the cylinder cap and cylinder body. 3. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 1, wherein the first protrusion comprises a triangle having an inclined surface in a connection direction, and wherein the second protrusion comprises a triangle having an inclined surface that projects in a direction opposite to the inclined surface of the first protrusion. 4. An automatic height adjustment leg of a laundry handling apparatus, comprising: a cylinder mounted to a base of a laundry handling apparatus, wherein a penetrating part of the cylinder passes through the base; a piston movably arranged in the cylinder; an elastic member installed in the cylinder so as to elastically support the piston; a leg penetrating the cylinder and fixed to the piston; and a connection member connected to the penetrating part so as to mount the cylinder to the base; and a releasing restriction device restricting releasing of the connection member. 5. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 4, wherein the releasing restriction device comprises: a covering part surrounding an outside of the connection member, and a locking part extending from an upper side of the covering part and locked to a top surface of the connection member. 6. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 5, wherein the locking part comprises a locking projection that protrudes inward from an upper part of the covering part sp as to be locked downward to a verge of a top surface of the connection member which is a nut. 7. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 6, wherein the locking projection comprises a plurality of grooves that allow edges of the connection member to pass therethrough. 8. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 7, wherein the locking projection is formed along the inner circumference of a top end of the covering part, and wherein the number of grooves correspond to the number of protruding outer edges of the connection member. 9. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 5, wherein a prominent and depressed portion is formed on an outer peripheral surface of the covering part. 10. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 4, wherein male screw threads are formed on an outer peripheral surface of the penetrating part, and wherein the connection member has female screw threads connected to the male screw threads. 11. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 4, wherein the releasing restriction device comprises: a covering part surrounding an outside of the connection member, and a hooking part that extends from the covering part and that is hooked to a hooking hole formed on the base. 12. The automatic height adjustment leg of claim 11, wherein a prominent and depressed portion is formed on an inner peripheral surface of the covering part. 13. An automatic height adjustment leg of a laundry handling apparatus, comprising: a cylinder mounted to a base of a laundry handling apparatus, wherein the base comprises a base pan forming an appearance of a bottom surface of the laundry handling apparatus; a piston movably arranged inside the cylinder; an elastic member installed in the cylinder so as to elastically support the piston; a leg penetrating the cylinder and fixed to the piston; and a base bracket mounted to the base pan and mounting the cylinder. 14. An automatic height adjustment leg of a laundry handling apparatus comprising: a cylinder body whose top surface is open, the cylinder body formed with a penetrating part passing through a base of the laundry handling apparatus on its lower part; a connection member connected to the penetrating part so as to mount the cylinder body to the base; a releasing restriction device restricting releasing of the connection member; a cylinder cap covering a top surface of the cylinder body; a piston movably arranged inside the cylinder body; a elastic member supported by the cylinder cap so as to elastically support the piston; a leg passing through the penetrating part of the cylinder body and fixed to the piston; and a frictional member mounted to the piston so as to frictionally contact the cylinder body.
