The specific embodiment
In detail referring to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, these embodiment explanations in the accompanying drawings now.No matter which kind of is possible, and in whole accompanying drawing, identical reference symbol is used in reference to identical or similar parts of generation.
For the ease of understanding washing methods of the present invention, at first introduce the structure of general washing machine.As everyone knows, washing machine generally is divided into top embedded type and anterior embedded type.Under the situation of top embedded type washing machine, washing machine has a upright bucket, and the clothing that wash is by the top running into tank of washing machine.And forwardly under the situation of embedded type washing machine, washing machine has a bucket that lies low, and the clothing that wash is by the anterior running into tank of washing machine.In order to illustrate for simplicity, top embedded type washing machine is described as an example.
Fig. 1 is the side cross-sectional view of general top embedded type washing machine.
As shown in the figure, this washing machine comprises shell 10, outer bucket 20 and interior bucket 30, and it is installed in the shell 10.
Shell 10 is designed to various elements can be installed therein, and protects these elements.Shell 10 comprises a flap (door) 12 that is installed in top, and the clothes that this flap 12 allows users to wash is packed in the washing machine or the clothing that will wash takes out in washing machine.In addition, a control panel 100 that is used for user's operation is installed in the shell 10.
Outer bucket 20 flexibly is fixed on the inside of shell 10 by a buffer unit 11, and outer bucket 20 holds the washings of deposit, so as during washing operation, not stop washings are supplied with in barrels 30.Concrete, the bottom of bucket 20 is formed with a through hole outside, and a driving shaft 30b is set, and this driving shaft 30b is connected on the interior bucket 30 by this through hole.
Interior bucket 30 is rotatably installed in the outer bucket 20.In addition, interior bucket 30 comprises a plurality of hole 30a, so that washings can conveniently be introduced from outer bucket 20.Agitator 31 has a plurality of blades, and is installed in rotation on the bottom of interior bucket 30, so that it can be connected to driving shaft 30b.The clothing of washing is packed into as mentioned above in the interior bucket 30 of structure, and washs by the rotation of interior bucket 30 and/or agitator 31.Simultaneously, a drive part 40 is arranged in the bottom of outer bucket 20 and interior bucket 30, rotates interior bucket 30 and agitator 31 so that power to be provided.Usually, drive part 40 comprises engine, clutch etc.As above describe, drive part 40 is connected on interior bucket 30, agitator 31 and the driving shaft 30b.
Below, with relevant accompanying drawing washing methods of the present invention is described with reference to top washing machine.Except being provided with of bucket, the basic structure of anterior embedded type washing machine is identical with top embedded type washing machine basically.Therefore, although washing methods of the present invention will be described with reference to top embedded type washing machine, this washing methods is equally applicable to anterior embedded type washing machine.
Fig. 2 is the flow chart that washing methods of the present invention is shown, and Fig. 3 is the curve map that is illustrated in during the dip operation according to the water level of time cycle.
At first, predetermined quantity wants in the washed bucket of packing into (bucket promptly) 30, so that wash these clothings (S10) in washing machine.Usually, the thing that wash comprises various textiles, as cotton and woollen fabrics.Simultaneously, the degree of making dirty of various clothings differs from one another.Washing agent and the clothing that will wash are being put into bucket 30 when S30 begins before the water supply step S30 that carries out subsequently or in the water supply step together.
If the user wants to start washing machine after washed having adorned, begin to carry out under the control of the controller that then a series of washing process will be in being arranged on washing machine.At first, washing machine begins to supply with washings (S30) to bucket 30 (S30).As shown in Figures 2 and 3, in water supply step S30, supplying washing water increases to predetermined water level until washings step by step.Particularly, water supply step S30 comprises that wherein these a plurality of mid water levels differ from one another basically with the water supply substep S31 and the S32 of washings supply until a plurality of mid water levels.Obtain these central water levels by the final water level of suitable division, these mid water levels have the value that increases step by step.Number of mid water levels (times) and numerical value can not considered wash conditions or determine according to the change of wash conditions.In addition, this final water level can become a suitable water level among the washing step S60 subsequently, and wishes to want the temperature of washed quantity and situation, washings to wait to determine this final water level according to these wash conditions pictures.The washing agent that provides in water supply step S30 is uniform dissolution fully also.
Then, the clothing that wash is immersed in the washings that are in each water level that water supply step S30 provided (S50).In other words, soaking step S50 comprises immersion substep S51 and the S52 in the washings that will washedly be immersed in corresponding mid water levels, and these mid water levels provide in water supply step S31 and S32.Thereby, in the predetermined period of time relevant, carry out soaking step S50 repeatedly with water supply step S30.During soaking step S50, washed absorption washings, and some pollutants can separate from these clothings.What in addition, bucket 30 and agitator 31 normally stopped during soaking step S50.Yet bucket 30 and agitator 31 can rotate discontinuously to promote the major function of soaking step S50, promptly absorb moisture content and separating contaminants.
Simultaneously, preferably bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 rotated the preset time cycle (S40) before soaking step S50.Particularly, before soaking substep S51 and S52, carry out gyrator step S41 and S42 several times earlier.In addition, if desired, gyrator step S41 and S42 can carry out selectively.Because the mobile of washings is to be created among the rotation step S40, so washing agent can dissolve and penetrate in the clothing equably quickly.And because the flowing of washings, some pollutants just can separate from clothing.In addition and since the pollutant that separates also with washings flow and floating, so the clothing that will wash just can not made dirty by separated pollutant once more.Particularly, be the preliminary step of washing step S60 owing to use the rotation step S40 of the rotation of bucket and agitator, therefore bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 should rotate with the speed lower than washing step S60.In addition, owing to the amount of pollutants process in time of separating increases, therefore just need the more multithread of washings to move the pollutant of accelerating is flowed fully and floating.Correspondingly, make dirty once more, just wish in gyrator step subsequently, to come rotating cylinder 30 and agitator 31 with the speed that increases gradually in order to prevent the pollutant that clothing is increased.In addition, as time goes by, even in a rotation step, bucket 30 and agitator 31 are also rotatable more and more faster.
Consider above-mentioned roughly description as can be known, rotation step S40 and the soaking step S50 attribute of the step S30 value of number of times, mid water levels of step and each water supply step influence of required time of promptly supplying water of being supplied water.As mentioned above, except that by the value of dividing the mid water levels that final water level obtains, the variation that required time of water supply substep can be at random, this is because final water level becomes according to wash conditions.Therefore, when determining all properties (number of times, required time, rotation number) of rotation step S40 and soaking step S50, the number of times of water supply step is a quantity factor and objective factor.Simultaneously, although water supply step S30 repeatedly is favourable to the dissolving of washing agent, cause the increase of whole wash time.Therefore, though washing methods of the present invention can comprise the step S30 that supplies water for several times, what expect in the embodiment of reality is that this water supply step S30 is three times.In order further to understand, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will detailed below description.
Referring to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, after the step S10 that packs into, washings are supplied in the bucket 30 up to predetermined first water level (S31) once more.As mentioned above, this first water level is of mid water levels.Although the final water level of this first water table ratio is low, it is a suitable water level, is enough to soak clothing and the dissolving detergent that will wash.Washing agent can be put into bucket 30 with washings prior to the first water supply step S31 or during the first water supply step S31.In the first relatively low water level of washings (promptly more a spot of washings), washing agent can dissolve fast and evenly disperse.Therefore, in this first water supply step S31, water level has very high and uniform detergent concentration, so that obtain a significantly improved scourability.
After the first water supply step S31, preferred, bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 at first rotate the preset time cycle (S41).Though washing methods of the present invention can omit this first rotation step S41,, comprise that therefore this first rotation step is favourable because washing agent can more promptly dissolve and be penetrated in the clothing that will wash equably.In addition, in rotation step S41, some pollutants separate from the clothing that will wash, and the pollutant that separates is by floating, thereby have prevented to want washed making dirty once more.Although only in bucket 30 and the agitator 31 is rotated in the first rotation step S41, what expect is that the both rotates.
Behind the first rotation step S41, washed and in washings, at first soaked predetermined period of time (S51).During the first soaking step S51, washedly be maintained in the washings of first water level.Because this first soaking step S51 is arranged, in main washing step S60, clothing will absorb enough moisture content and come the partly washing (in other words, pollutant is partly separated) of complete separating contaminants and quilt.Particularly, owing to by previous step S31 and S41, comprised the washing agent of high concentration in the washings, therefore more in a short period of time pollutant will be separated from the clothing that will wash.In addition, during the first soaking step S51, bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 can be rotated discontinuously to avoid clothing to be made dirty once more and obtain washing agent further to be dissolved/spreads.And the rotation of bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 helps to want washed quilt partly to wash and absorb washings during soaking step S51.
At the fixed time, washings are supplied in the bucket 30 until second water level (S32).In other words, washings are supplied to second water level higher than first water level further.During the second water supply step S32, the washing agent that is retained in the first water level washings begins to dissolve further, and wherein washing agent is saturated nearly in the first water level washings.Further the washing agent of dissolving spreads rapidly and equably in the washings of this second water level, makes these washings have very high, well-proportioned detergent concentration.Thereby washings are held the washing capacity of enhancing, and the whole washing agent that provide are for the first time almost all dissolved in the washings of second water level.
Behind the second water supply step S31, preferred, bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 are rotated the preset time cycle (S42) for the second time prior to soaking step.During this second rotation step S42, bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 are rotated with the washing agent that impels washing agent to dissolve fully and to help to dissolve and evenly spread.In addition, be similar to the first rotation step S41, the clothing that wash is washed in advance and prevents to be made dirty once more.Simultaneously,, in washings, had a large amount of separating contaminants, thereby the possibility of making dirty again that clothing is made dirty once more will increase by previous step S31, S41, S51 and S32.Therefore, floating effectively for the pollutant that makes increase, it is desirable to bucket 30 and/or agitator can be to be rotated than the higher speed of the first rotation step S41.Based on same reason, during rotation step S41 and S42, it is desirable to bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 disappearance in time and rotate more and more sooner.Meanwhile, because rotation step S40 is a preliminary step, therefore bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 need be not to be rotated than the higher speed of main washing step S60.
Behind the second rotation step S42, predetermined period of time (S52) in the washed washings that be soaked in second water level.During the second soaking step S52, many pollutants are separated in containing the second water level washings of high concentration detergent further.Bucket 30 and/or agitator 31 can rotate discontinuously to help the second soaking step S52.
Through behind the preset time, washings are supplied to bucket 30, make it rise to final water level (S53) by second water level.In other words, these washings have than the higher water level of second water level and are further supplied with until the final water level that is suitable for main washing step S60.Be in second water level, the satisfied washings of washing agent are because the 3rd water supply step S32 and being diluted slightly, but it has the best detergent concentration that is suitable for main washing step S60.In addition, under many circumstances, by the step S31 to S52 of front, washing agent dissolves fully, but in some cases, some washing agent may be residual.In that case, Can Yu washing agent also can be dissolved in the washings of increase fully.
As mentioned above, according to washing methods of the present invention, the carrying out that water supply step S31 and S32 are interrupted is so that have the water level that increases gradually at the preset time interval.This is illustrated well that in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 wherein Fig. 3 is the curve map that water level and time cycle relation are shown.Therefore, washings just include high concentration and uniform washing agent, thus the scourability that can obtain at ever-increasing water level place to improve.By repeating the step that supplies water, washing agent just almost completely is dissolved in the washings, thereby finally is suitable for most the washings of washing operation.In addition, as shown in Figure 3, soaking step S51 and S52 carry out at the preset time interval.Particularly, soaking step S51 and S52 carry out after water supply step S31 and S32.In other words, water supply step S31 to S33 and soaking step S51, S52 hocket, and soaking step S51 and S52 carry out between water supply step S31 to S33 basically.Therefore, during soaking step S51 and S52, under high concentration that is formed by the water supply step and the effect of washing agent uniformly, most pollutants is separated washed from wanting apace.By in the short relatively time, carrying out soaking step S51 and S52 repeatedly, just can realize the absorption of washings and separating of pollutant more effectively, and can reduce the possibility of making dirty once more.
After finishing a series of step S30, S40 and S50, the clothing that this washing was soaked is cleaned (S60).Since the chemical action of washing agent and during washing step S60 this clothing of rotation of bucket 30 and agitator 31 cleaned.Because the clothing that will wash is fully soaked in soaking step S50, therefore residual pollutant is easy to and can separates from clothing fully.
Behind washing step S60, if desired, washed and can carry out rinsing (S70) and/or dehydration (S80).In rinse step S70, at first, clean washings are fed in the bucket 30, and clothing washs with these clean washings then, to remove residual washing agent and pollutant on the clothing.In addition, in drying step (S80), discharge all washings in the bucket 30, bucket 30 rotation at a high speed then is to remove the moisture content of clothing.
During this period, above-mentioned soaking step (S50) is used for washing effectively the clothing of seriously being made dirty, but for the clothing that generally will wash, this step is also unnecessary.If the clothing that generally will wash has been used this soaking step, then this causes the increase in whole wash time cycle.Therefore, preferably selectively carry out this soaking step (S50).Washing methods of the present invention selectively soaks, and in a specific embodiment, also comprises a step that determines whether to select before in supplying washing water step (S31) immersion.
In more detail, the user selects one not comprise the washing mode of soaking step at least or select a washing mode that comprises soaking step.Here, when the former is defined work first washing mode, then this first washing mode just includes only washing step (S60), perhaps optionally comprises rinse step (S70) and/or the dehydration (S80) that carries over washing step (S60) according to wash conditions.Equally, when the latter is defined as second washing mode, then this second washing mode comprises soaking step (S50) and washing step (S60) at least, perhaps is similar to described first washing mode and optionally comprises rinse step (S70) and/or the dehydration (S80) that carries over washing step (S60) according to wash conditions.
In definite step (S20) in front because second washing mode is used for specific washed (i.e. the clothing of seriously being made dirty), therefore for make the user convenient for the purpose of, when operating washing machine, set first washing mode substantially.Meanwhile, preferably select second washing mode easily by once (once) instruction of input washing machine.In other words, for the purpose of making user's convenience, expectation is included in the whole wash cycle soaking step (S50) by the once command of input washing machine.As described above, when one of input was used for the instruction of scheduled operation, the user can use control panel 100.Shown in Fig. 4 A and Fig. 4 B, control panel 100 has window 110 and a plurality of button 120 that is used for operational order of a display operation state.For example, shown in Fig. 4 A, window 110 is by a plurality of Light-Emitting Diodes (LED) formation or shown in Fig. 4 B, by LCD (LCD) formation that mode of operation is shown as character.Equally, for example, button 120 comprises first button 121 that is used for selecting temperature of washing water, is used for selecting second button 122 of washings water level, is used for selecting the 3rd button 123 and the 4th button 124 that is used for selecting to start or stop washing machine of washing mode.The user presses the button 120 and produces the signal of telecommunication that is used to operate control, and a controller is operated washing machine to realize specific function according to the signal of telecommunication that produces.The information relevant with this operation offers the user by window 110.Therefore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the corresponding button that the user can push control panel 100 is that the 3rd button 123 selected second pattern, thereby soaking step (S50) is included in the whole wash cycle.Aforesaid model selection can be carried out by a push-botton operation, thereby provides convenience to the user.
If do not select soaking step (S50), then under first washing mode, move washing machine.Therefore, washings directly are supplied to bucket 30 until the final water level that is suitable for washing, so that main washing step (S60) can carry out (S21).
Meanwhile, under the situation of selecting soaking step (S50), washing machine carries out above-mentioned steps S30, S40 and the S50 with main washing step (S60) at least.At this, for the purpose of user's convenience, it is desirable to notify the user to select the soaking step (S50) or second washing mode.As mentioned above, notify the user this selection by the window 110 of control panel 100.In more detail, shown in Fig. 4 A, can be lighted corresponding to the specific LED 110a of soaking step (S50).Equally, shown in Fig. 4 B, can notify the user to select soaking step (S50) by the LCD that shows as character information.Therefore, the user can be easy to discern the selection and the execution of soaking step (S50).
Effect according to washing methods of the present invention can be summarized as follows:
Because washings are to be fed to step by step in the bucket, therefore just has very high and uniform detergent concentration at corresponding water level place.Equally, because the supply step of washings is repeated with the rotation of bucket and/or agitator, so washing agent fully is dissolved in the washings, and finally can reach the best detergent concentration that is used to wash in washings.In addition, owing to soak under very high detergent concentration with the supply step of washings, so pollutant can be separated from clothing very soon.Therefore, the scourability in the soaking step can be improved, and the time cycle of soaking step can be shortened.
