And a drain valve 107 for supplying the silver solution to the supply device 106 by opening and closing the valve.

도 2는 본 발명에 따른 은용액 제조장치를 구비한 세탁기의 블록도이다. 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 제어부(200)의 입력측에는 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위를 감지하는 수위감지센서(210)가 전기적으로 연결되고, 제어부(200)의 출력측에는 펄세이터를 회전시키는 모터(220)와, 은용액 저장탱크(103)에 급수되는 물(101)의 양을 개폐에 의해 조절하는 급수밸브(230)가 전기적으로 연결된다.2 is a block diagram of a washing machine having a silver solution manufacturing apparatus according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the water level sensor 210 is electrically connected to the input side of the control unit 200 to detect the water level of the silver solution storage tank 103, and the pulsator is rotated to the output side of the control unit 200. The motor 220 and the water supply valve 230 for controlling the amount of water 101 supplied to the silver solution storage tank 103 by opening and closing are electrically connected to each other.

세탁물을 효과적으로 살균하기 위해서는 세탁물의 양에 따라 은용액의 양 즉 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위값을 다르게 설정해야 한다. 그로 인해 세탁물의 양에 따라 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위값이 설정되어 있다. 상기 세탁물의 양을 감지하는 방법은 종래와 같은 방법으로 펄세이터를 회전시켜 그 회전시간을 카운트함으로써 알 수 있다.In order to effectively sterilize laundry, the amount of silver solution, that is, the water level of the silver solution storage tank 103 should be set differently according to the amount of laundry. Therefore, the water level value of the silver solution storage tank 103 is set according to the quantity of laundry. The method of detecting the amount of laundry can be known by rotating the pulsator in the same manner as the conventional method and counting the rotation time.

펄세이터의 회전시간으로 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위값을 알기 위해 제어부(200)는 세탁행정을 수행하기 전의 세탁물이 회전조내에 투입된 상태에서, 모터(220)를 회전시켜 모터(220)와 연결된 펄세이터를 회전시키고, 펄세이터가 회전함에 따라 제어부(200)에 입력되는 펄스 수를 카운트하는 방법으로 펄세이터의 회전시간을 카운트하는 작업을 여러 번 수행하여 상기 펄세이터의 회전시간의 평균값을 구하고, 상기 평균값에 해당하는 미리 저장된 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 목표 수위값을 결정한다.In order to know the water level value of the silver solution storage tank 103 by the rotation time of the pulsator, the control unit 200 rotates the motor 220 in a state in which laundry before the washing stroke is performed in the rotating tank, thereby rotating the motor 220. Rotate the pulsator connected to the pulsator, and count the number of pulses input to the control unit 200 as the pulsator rotates to perform the operation of counting the rotation time of the pulsator several times to the average value of the rotation time of the pulsator Then, the target water level of the pre-stored silver solution storage tank 103 corresponding to the average value is determined.

또한, 수위감지센서(210)로부터 감지된 신호를 입력받아 상기 감지값이 미리 설정된 목표 수위값에 도달하면, 상기 제어부(200)는 급수밸브(230)을 닫아 해당 수위를 유지하도록 하고, 세탁기의 DC 전원을 은용액 저장탱크(103)내에 설치된 은봉(105)에 공급하여 전기분해에 의해 은용액 저장탱크(103)에 은용액을 생성시킨다.In addition, when the detected value reaches a preset target level value by receiving a signal detected from the water level detection sensor 210, the control unit 200 to maintain the water level by closing the water supply valve 230, DC power is supplied to the silver rod 105 installed in the silver solution storage tank 103 to generate silver solution in the silver solution storage tank 103 by electrolysis.

이후 세탁기는 사용자의 설정에 따라 세탁행정, 헹굼행정,배수행정,탈수행정을 수행하고, 최종탈수행정이 종료되면 최종탈수행정의 종료신호가 제어부(200)에 입력되고, 상기 신호에 의해 제어부(200)는 배수밸브(240)을 열고 공급장치를 구동하여 상기 생성된 은용액을 회전조내로 공급하여 세탁물을 살균시킨다.Thereafter, the washing machine performs washing strokes, rinsing strokes, draining strokes, and dehydrating strokes according to the user's setting. When the final dehydrating stroke is finished, the end signal of the final dehydrating stroke is input to the controller 200, and the control unit (200) 200 opens the drain valve 240 and drives the supply device to supply the generated silver solution into the rotary bath to sterilize the laundry.

도 3은 본 발명에 따른 은용액 제조장치를 구비한 세탁기의 흐름도이다. 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이, 여러 값의 펄세이터가 회전하여 정지하는데 경과되는 시간인 펄세이터의 회전시간에 해당하는 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위값이 초기에 미리 저장되어 있다(S300)(또한, 은용액의 최적의 살균효과를 갖는 소정농도(5PPM)에 도달하는데 필요한 DC전원의 통전시간은 상기 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위값에 따라 미리 저장되어 있다).3 is a flowchart of a washing machine having a silver solution manufacturing apparatus according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the water level value of the silver solution storage tank 103 corresponding to the rotation time of the pulsator, which is the time elapsed when the pulsator of various values rotates and stops, is initially stored in advance (S300). (In addition, the energization time of the DC power supply required to reach a predetermined concentration (5 PPM) having an optimum sterilization effect of the silver solution is stored in advance according to the water level value of the silver solution storage tank 103).

세탁행정을 수행하기 전에 세탁물을 회전조내에 투입하면(S301),제어부(200)는 모터(220)를 약 3내지 5초동안 구동하여 모터(220)와 연결된 펄세이터를 회전시킨다(S302). 이때 펄세이터의 회전시간을 카운트하기 시작한다(S303). 상기 3내지 5초의 모터 구동시간이 경과하면 모터(220)가 구동을 정지하고 그로 인해 펄세이터는 관성에 의해 정지한다(S304).이때 펄세이터의 회전시간을 카운트하던 것을 종료한다(S305).If the laundry is put in the rotating tank before performing the washing operation (S301), the control unit 200 drives the motor 220 for about 3 to 5 seconds to rotate the pulsator connected to the motor 220 (S302). At this time, the rotation time of the pulsator starts to be counted (S303). When the motor driving time of 3 to 5 seconds has elapsed, the motor 220 stops driving, and thus the pulsator stops by inertia (S304). At this time, the counting of the rotation time of the pulsator is finished (S305).

단계(S302-S305)를 여러 번 반복하여 펄세이터의 회전시간의 평균값을 구하고, 상기 평균값에 해당하는 단계(S300)에 저장되어 있는 여러 값의 펄세이터의 회전시간에 해당하는 은용액 저장탱크(103)의 수위값을 읽어와 목표 수위값을 결정한다(S306)(상기의 결정된 목표 수위값은 은용액의 제조량이다).Repeat the steps (S302-S305) several times to obtain the average value of the rotation time of the pulsator, the silver solution storage tank corresponding to the rotation time of the pulsator of the various values stored in the step (S300) corresponding to the average value ( The target water level value is determined by reading the water level value of 103 (S306) (the determined target water level value is the production amount of the silver solution).

상기 목표 수위값이 결정되면, 제어부(200)는 급수밸브(102)를 열어 물(101)을 은용액 저장탱크(103)로 급수하고(S307), 상기 수위감지센서(104)의 신호에 의해 결정된 목표 수위값 만큼 급수되면 급수밸브(102)를 닫아 상기 결정된 목표 수위값 이상으로 급수되지 않도록 한다. 이때 상기 결정된 목표 수위값만큼 급수되면 제어부(200)은 DC 전원의 양극선과 음극선에 각각 연결된 은봉(105)에 DC 전원을 공급하여 은봉(105)이 물과 반응하여 전기분해를 일으킴으로써 은용액이 상기 결정된 수위값만큼 생성된다(S308).When the target water level value is determined, the control unit 200 opens the water supply valve 102 to supply water 101 to the silver solution storage tank 103 (S307), and by the signal of the water level sensor 104. When water is supplied by the determined target water level value, the water supply valve 102 is closed to prevent water supply above the determined target water level value. At this time, when the water level is determined by the determined target water level, the controller 200 supplies DC power to the silver rods 105 connected to the anode and cathode lines of the DC power, respectively, so that the silver solution 105 reacts with water to cause electrolysis. As much as the determined water level value is generated (S308).

이때 제어부(200)는 단계(S300)에 저장되어 있는 상기 수위값에 해당하는 통전시간 값을 읽어와 상기 통전시간 동안 은봉(105)에 DC 전원을 공급하여 상기 생성된 은용액이 살균하는데 최적농도인 소정농도(5PPM)에 도달하도록 한다.At this time, the control unit 200 reads the energization time value corresponding to the water level value stored in step S300 and supplies the DC power to the silver rod 105 during the energization time to optimally sterilize the generated silver solution. To reach a predetermined concentration (5 PPM).

이후 사용자의 설정에 따라 세탁기는 세탁행정(S309), 헹굼행정(S310), 배수행정(S311), 탈수행정(S312)을 수행하고, 최종탈수행정이 종료(S312)되면 종래와 같은 방식으로 그 종료신호를 제어부(200)로 보내고(S313) 제어부(200)는 감지된 최종탈수행정의 종료신호에 의해 모터(220)를 저속으로 구동하고, 배수밸브(107)를 열어 세탁물에 은용액이 골고루 적셔지도록 한 후 공급장치(106)를 구동하여 회전조내로 상기 은용액을 미리 설정된 공급시간동안 공급시킴으로써 세탁물을 살균한다(S314)(상기 공급장치는 강제공급의 방식으로 펌프를 이용하여 노즐로 은용액을 세탁물에 공급시키는 방법과 자연공급의 방식으로 회전조 내로 은용액을 흘려 보내는 방법이 있으며 상기 은용액의 공급시간은 은용액 저장탱크의 수위에 따라 미리 설정되어 있다). 미리 설정된 은용액의 공급시간이 종료하면, 제어부(200)는 모터(220)의 속도를 고속으로 하여 탈수를 수행한다(S315).After that, according to the user's setting, the washing machine performs a washing stroke (S309), a rinsing stroke (S310), a draining stroke (S311), and a dehydrating stroke (S312). Sending the end signal to the control unit 200 (S313), the control unit 200 drives the motor 220 at a low speed by the detected end signal of the final dehydration stroke, and opens the drain valve 107 to distribute the silver solution evenly to the laundry. After soaking, the supply device 106 is driven to sterilize the laundry by supplying the silver solution into the rotary tank for a predetermined supply time (S314) (the supply device uses silver by means of a pump by means of a forced supply to the nozzle). There is a method of supplying the solution to the laundry and the method of flowing the silver solution into the rotary tank by the method of natural supply, the supply time of the silver solution is set in advance according to the level of the silver solution storage tank). When the preset supply time of the silver solution ends, the control unit 200 performs dehydration at a high speed of the motor 220 (S315).

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 은용액 제조장치를 구비한 세탁기는 세탁기에 구비된 은용액 제조장치에서 생성된 은용액에 의해 세탁물을 살균함으로써 종래의 세탁기에 있는 마이컴과 전원장치를 활용하여 저가로 구성할 수 있고, 세탁물의 양에 따라 은용액량이 조절되어 세탁물의 양에 따른 효과적인 살균이 이루어지는 효과가 있다.As described in detail above, a washing machine having a silver solution manufacturing apparatus according to the present invention utilizes a microcomputer and a power supply unit in a conventional washing machine by sterilizing a laundry by the silver solution generated in the silver solution manufacturing apparatus provided in the washing machine.
