In the cylinder matting 1 of step S300-1, carry out the step shown in Figure 15.
As shown in figure 15, in step S301, control device 60 makes that the rotary speed (for example 25rpm) of inner core 10 with than washing procedure the time is high, the low rotary speed rotation of rotary speed (for example 1000rpm) during than dehydration procedure.In addition, rotary speed is set as for example 80~300rpm.But, be not particularly limited to the rotary speed of above-mentioned scope, so long as can fully clean the speed in cylindric washer (inner core 10, urceolus 20), be not limited to above-mentioned scope.For example, can suitably change the upper limit according to the maximum output (maximum load) of motor M.In addition, can suitably change lower limit according to the shape of inner core 10 shape of water (be whether easily kick up).That is, in the situation that be the shape of the water of easily kicking up, even with the lower rotary speed water of also can kicking up.
In step S301, control device 60 is usingd 100rpm and is cleaned rotary speed as first and make it right rotation.In cylinder matting 1, owing to being, so that the large dirt of bottom of cylinder falls is main tentative matting, use washings so do not use clear water, and set lowlyer by the rotary speed of inner core 10.In addition, the water level that water level now is following situation: in water supply operation (S200-10) is supplied water/mends in above-mentioned rotation, for be rotated water supply/benefit and supply water after identical water level (first is cleaned water level), according to the amount of clothing and difference, but maximum for 11.5 liters of confluents (first is cleaned the water yield).Then, inner core 10 rotation, kick up the rinse water (running water) stockpiled in the bottom of urceolus 20 upward, thus main rinse water half zone and half the zone, the left side of inner core 10, inboard left side of urceolus 20 of a side of being kicked up.In addition, the side (side face) that rinse water is blown to urceolus 20 inboards from the through hole 10h of the side that is formed in a large number inner core 10 is cleaned.
Enter step S302, utilize not shown timer to judge control device 60 makes whether to have passed through the stipulated time after inner core 10 right rotations.In addition, the stipulated time is not particularly limited, and for example is set as 60 seconds.In step S302, control device 60 in the situation that be judged to be does not pass through the stipulated time, returns to step S301, in the situation that be judged to be through the stipulated time, enters step S303.
In step S303, control device 60 makes inner core 10 anticlockwises with 100rpm.Thus, similarly will stockpile rinse water in urceolus 20 during with right rotation to kicking up, mainly clean half zone and half the zone, the right side of inner core 10, right side of the inboard of urceolus 20.Like this, by making inner core 10 right rotations and anticlockwise, can prevent from being offset in the zone of cleaning.
Enter step S304, utilize not shown timer to judge control device 60 makes whether to have passed through the stipulated time after inner core 10 anticlockwises.In addition, the stipulated time is not particularly limited, and with above-mentioned, similarly for example is set as 60 seconds.In step S304, control device 60 in the situation that be judged to be does not pass through the stipulated time, returns to step S303, in the situation that be judged to be through the stipulated time, enters step S305.
In step S305, it is constant that control device 60 maintains the rotation (anticlockwise, 100rpm) of inner core 10.Then, make draining valve for opening state (S300-1-2), enter the dehydration procedure 1 shown in Figure 16.In addition, step S301~S304 is corresponding with the S300-1-1 of Figure 19.
As shown in figure 16, in step S401, control device 60 is opened draining valve V with the state of the rotation that maintains inner core 10.Thus, the rinse water of having used of the urceolus 20 used in cylinder matting 1, be discharged to outside machine via scupper hose 8.
By carrying out like this cylinder matting 1, can remove dirt and the refuse of the integral body in cylindric washer (inner core 10, urceolus 20), can suppress adhering to of dirt and refuse when turn round next time in addition.
Enter dehydration procedure 1(S400-1-1), under the state of the rotary speed that maintains inner core 10, in step S401, control device 60 judges whether draining completes.Whether draining completes, and can judge by the detected value based on level sensor 63.In step S401, control device 60, being judged to be in the uncompleted situation of draining (No), carries out step S401 repeatedly, in the situation that be judged to be draining, completes (Yes), enters step S402, makes the rotary speed of inner core 10 increase.Then enter the cylinder matting 2 shown in Figure 17.
The action of cylinder matting 2 is, at first in step S306, the rotary speed that makes to dewater rises, and the rotary speed that makes inner core 10 is the 380rpm left and right.Now, after confirming degree of dehydration with the conductivity sensor, when the moisture contained in clothing being detected reduces to a certain degree, make the rotary speed of inner core 10 reduce (step S307).In addition, although the conductivity sensor of present embodiment is not shown, by pair of electrodes respect to one another, formed, can measure this interelectrode hardness of water.In addition, this conductivity sensor is configured near the lower side of urceolus 20, so, even the water that draining proceeds in cylindric washer just remains the state of a little, also can sensitivity detect well degree of dehydration.
Like this, after with the conductivity sensor, having detected dewatering state, make the rotary speed of inner core 10 be reduced to the 240rpm left and right of cleaning rotary speed as second, start the action (step S308) that cylinder cleans.This second is cleaned the rotary speed of rotary speed 240rpm higher than the inner core 10 of cylinder matting 1, so bigcatkin willow can be played to the position of the height that can't arrive in a matting 1.In step S308, control device 60 cuts out draining valve, opens cylinder and cleans water supply electromagnetic valve 12e, in urceolus 20, stockpiles rinse water.Also the rotary speed of inner core 10 is maintained to 240rpm while stockpiling rinse water.The time that stockpiles rinse water changes according to running water pressure.According to initial output and the relation of time, judge running water pressure, select to carry out the control time with the water supply time of this hydraulic pressure coupling, supplied water.At this, by supplying with the approximately rinse water of 7 liters of as second, cleaning the water yield, water stockpiles second cleaning water level of 25% left and right of inner core 10 bottom surface height.This be because, under the condition that is 240rpm in the rotary speed of inner core 10, clean the water yield while being 7 liters, can cross rinse water at the inner surface bulk flow of urceolus 20 and outer cover 22.
According to this action, stockpile concavo-convex being kicked up such as dewatering hole because of the outside that is present in inner core 10 in the water of the bottom of urceolus 20, to encounter the bottom surface of urceolus 20 and side and be raised along them, purge flow is crossed in a matting 1 dirt that can't wash.In addition, the dust on the top of the urceolus 20 adhered in drying process and the top of outer cover 22, also can utilize this matting 2 purge flow mistakes.And, different from the washings of cylinder matting 1, utilize clear water, so can prevent adhering to of powder dirt etc.
In addition, in step S308, carry out cleaning from cylinder the action that water supply electromagnetic valve 12e supplies water via the outside cover side nozzle 50A of rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55.Then, from being arranged at, the water jet 50b2 of the front surface 50d side of cover side nozzle 50A discharges water, and water is encountered the internal face of outer cover 22, and from being arranged at, the water jet 50a2 of the bottom surface 50f side of cover side nozzle 50A discharges water, and water is encountered the side wall surface of inner core 10.Be sprayed onto the water of the side wall surface of inner core 10, because the centrifugal force of the rotation of inner core 10 disperses to the Zhou Fangxiang outside, also be delivered to the internal face at rear of outer cover 22 and the outside wall surface of inner core 10.
Like this, in the present embodiment, utilization is by the sprinkling action of outer cover side nozzle 50A water spray, for the dirts such as inboard of outer cover 22 residually be not easy to clean, the zone do not arrived is moved in this sprinklings, for example, near the zone internal face of the Gao position, rear of urceolus 20, as mentioned above, kick up upward by stockpiling in the water of the bottom of urceolus 20, prevent adhering to of dirt.
In addition, in the present embodiment, second is cleaned rotary speed is to clean the fast 240rpm of rotary speed than first, and second is cleaned the water yield is 7 liters, but is not limited thereto.That is, clean water level than second while improving second cleaning rotary speed low also enough, than second, clean when rotary speed is hanged down and need to improve second cleaning water level.
Then, second cleaning water yield and second cleaning rotary speed are changed to other conditions, the effect that the checking cylinder of trying cleans, obtain following result.At first, the water yield is 4 liters of rotary speeies while being 450rpm, the top of the barely outer cover 22 of water, and the water yield is when to be 5 liters of rotary speeies be 400rpm, water to a certain degree arrives the top of outer cover 22.In addition, the water yield is that 6 liters of rotary speeies are while being 330rpm, water spray increases to the zone of the inner surface of outer cover 22, the water yield is that 7 liters of rotary speeies while being 240rpm, the water yield are that 8 liters of rotary speeies are that 200rpm and the water yield are 9 liters of rotary speeies while being 160rpm, can have no to omit ground neatly purge flow cross the inner surface of outer cover 22.And then, the water yield be 10 liters of rotary speeies while being 160rpm and the water yield be 11.5 liters of rotary speeies while being 130rpm, although purge flow is crossed the inner surface of outer cover 22 neatly, a part of water overflows.
Therefore, in order to obtain a cleaning performance, the water yield need to be at least more than 5 liters, in order to obtain high cylinder cleaning performance, need to be for more than 7 liters, but consider water saving ability, be preferably below 9 liters.On the other hand, about rotary speed, if do not consider that water saving ability makes water yield as many as more than 11.5 liters, as long as the above effect that just can obtain the cylinder cleaning of 130rpm is arranged.But, if put consistent rotary speed with the first resonance point before and after 150rpm, near 3 subresonances from 300rpm to 400rpm, vibration likely becomes large, thus for fear of this point, can make rotary speed be from 160rpm to 300rpm near.And then, before and after 200rpm, also can prevent the generation of subresonance point if avoid.Therefore, known is 7 liters of rotary speeies while being 240rpm in the water yield, can save water, and the effect that cylinder cleans keeps highly.
In addition, in the present embodiment, move and stockpile in the combination of kicking up of the water of urceolus 20 by the sprinkling by outer cover side nozzle 50A, automatically purge flow is crossed the mode of sebum dirt and washing agent slag etc., but do not use the sprinkling action of outer cover side nozzle 50A, can to a certain degree expect that purge flow crosses the effect of dirt etc. yet.In this case, to the water supply in the urceolus 20 of step S308, also can use cylinder to clean the feed water valve beyond water supply electromagnetic valve 12e.But, while making water supply flow is few as finishing agent water supply electromagnetic valve 12b and cooling water electromagnetic valve 12d valve events, water supply time increases, result, the duration of runs is elongated, so preferably washing agent water supply electromagnetic valve 12a and urceolus water supply electromagnetic valve 12c.
In addition, dirt is the most easily the most residual in cylinder is urceolus 20 inner bottom surface, likely near certain water level, is producing water line.This water line for to adhere in washing procedure and rinsing process, and cylinder cleaning action afterwards also is difficult to the dirt of wandering.So, in the present embodiment, in order to rush this water line, utilize the mechanical force of the blade section 70 that at the back side of inner core 10, projection is set and forms.This blade section 70 is the shape of extending to radially near the outer circumferential side of the flange of the bottom surface of inner core 10, encounters the water surface by it and produces current, can water line be fallen by applying strong power.In addition, also can consider to substitute the method for the nozzle this blade section 70 is set and is provided in addition spraying water between the bottom surface of the back side of inner core 10 and urceolus 10.
Then, after in cylinder, supplying with sufficient rinse water, in step S309, close cylinder and clean water supply electromagnetic valve 12e, second cleaning rotary speed of inner core 10 remains unchanged (30 seconds), and continuation will stockpile in the bigcatkin willow of urceolus 20, prevent from being offset in the zone that will clean.In the present embodiment, in order not make the duration of runs elongated, make the rotation of the inner core 10 based on second cleaning rotary speed only to a direction, but also can after the stipulated time, make direction of rotation contrary, perhaps they are carried out repeatedly repeatedly, control littlely thereby further will wash inequality.
After step S311 in, the rotary speed that maintains inner core 10 is constant, opens draining valve and discharges rinse water.Owing to maintaining rotary speed draining unchangeably, so can make the rinse water that contains dirt composition not contact the discharge of clothing ground.
Then, when the draining of rinse water finishes, again close draining valve, again open cylinder and clean a water supply electromagnetic valve 12e, carry out approximately the water supply (step S313) of the running water of 2.5 liters.This cleaning water yield of 2.5 liters (the 3rd is cleaned the water yield), the rotary speed of inner core 10 be 240rpm(with second to clean the water yield identical) condition under, although be difficult to spread all over the inboard integral body of outer cover 22, can cross at the inner bottom surface bulk flow of urceolus 20 amount of the degree of rinse water.Like this, easily adhere to urceolus 20 inner bottom surface of dirt and repeatedly cleaned by clear water, so can rush reliably dirt.And the water yield of now using is fewer than second cleaning water yield, so also can economize on water.In addition, when this step S313, also can clean the outside cover side nozzle of water supply electromagnetic valve 12e 50A from cylinder and supply water, carry out the water spray of outside cover 22 grades.
Then, after supplying with sufficient rinse water in cylinder, in step S314, close cylinder and clean a water supply electromagnetic valve 12e, the cleaning rotary speed of inner core 10 remain unchanged (30 seconds).While then passing through the stipulated time (step S315), the rotary speed that maintains inner core 10 is constant, opens draining valve and discharges rinse water (step S316).Like this, by replacing second, clean the water yield and the 3rd and clean the water yield and utilize clean water, improve the effect that cylinder cleans.
In addition, step S308~S310 cleans and supplies water 1 with the S300-2-1(cylinder of Figure 19) corresponding, the S300-2-2(draining of step S311, S312 and Figure 19) corresponding, the S300-2-3(cylinder of step S313~S315 and Figure 19 cleans and supplies water 2) corresponding, the S300-2-4(draining of step S316 and Figure 19) corresponding.
And then enter the dehydration procedure 2(S400-2 shown in Figure 18).In step S403, after the time final dewatering operation that puts rules into practice after draining completes, stay open draining valve V, move to drying process (S500).Then, when the running of drying process S500 finishes, close draining valve V.
Like this, from cylinder matting 1,2(S300-1, S300-2) move to dehydration procedure 1,2(S400-1, S400-2) time, move to rotatably dehydration procedure by what maintain inner core 10, can realize the shortening of the duration of runs.That is, if make the rotation of inner core 10 stop before dehydration procedure, while starting dehydration procedure, when need to obtain the balance of inner core 10, make rotary speed increase, rise to the corresponding rotary speed of dewatering and need to expend time in.As shown in the embodiment, by do not make the rotation of inner core 10 in the cylinder matting, do not stop, can omission obtaining the time of above-mentioned balance, can realize the shortening of the duration of runs.
In addition, in drying process (S500), control device 60 is opened cooling water electromagnetic valve 12d, to heater 42 energisings, drive fan 41.Thus, the steam utilization water-cooled dehumidifying parts (not shown) that produce from clothing are removed moisture (dehumidifying), after utilizing heater 42 heating, become dried air and again turn back in inner core 10.
In addition, also can in drying process, also carry out cylinder and clean, remove the dust adhered in dry operating.In addition, confirmed, at inner core 10, whether the residual processing of clothing is arranged.For example, the user opens door 2 and takes out clothing, closes door 2, and button in accordance with regulations (for example start button), start a matting thus.And, do not drop into clothing, can make at high speed thus inner core 10 rotations, can, with less water yield rotation, can improve water-saving performance.
As described above, in washing machine S1, cover 22(urceolus 20 outside) top in, cover 22(urceolus 20 outside) and the leading section side of the restriction 10d(inner core of inner core 10) between, be provided with the outer cover side nozzle 50A(water route parts via rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55), so can use from cylinder and clean water supply electromagnetic valve 12e(water supply mechanism) rinse water remove dirt and the refuse of the front surface of the inner surface that is attached to outer cover 22 and inner core 10, and cleaned and flow away before dirt and refuse accumulation, can make thus cylindric washer (inner core 10, urceolus 20) keep clean.Can suppress adhering to of dirt and refuse by such mode, so breeding that can mould fungus inhibition and the output of foreign odor.And, can prevent or suppress refuse and be attached to the washings in washing.
In addition, in present embodiment, dehydration flexible pipe 56 branches are connected in rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55, and rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55 is configured in to ratio dehydration flexible pipe 56 position closer to the top on vertical, can prevent that thus rinse water from remaining in rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55.Thus, can prevent because freezing enclosed cleaning water supplying flexible pipe 55, in addition, can prevent the problem of the washing machine S1 that produces because of sealing.
In addition, the branch part of rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55 and dehydration flexible pipe 56 is near cylinder cleaning water supply electromagnetic valve 12e, so can do one's utmost to reduce the rinse water that residues in rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55.
In addition, clean water supply electromagnetic valve 12e owing to being provided with special-purpose cylinder, so the function in the time of can not damaging the cylinder cleaning.In addition, be not limited to rinse water supplying flexible pipe 55 and clean with special-purpose cylinder the structure that water supply electromagnetic valve 12e is connected, also can adopt the structure that transfer valve branch are set in the downstream of other water supply electromagnetic valve.
In addition, there is the control device 60 of controlling motor M and cylinder cleaning water supply electromagnetic valve 12e, control device 60 application cylinders clean water supply electromagnetic valve 12e so that stockpile the running water of ormal weight at urceolus 20, control motor M so that the rotary speed high rotary speed rotation of inner core 10 with than washing procedure the time, so not only utilize the cylinder of outer cover side nozzle 50A to clean, and can utilize stockpile in the rinse water of urceolus 20 kick up carry out cylinder and clean, can clean the integral body in cylindric washer (inner core 10, urceolus 20).
In addition, the cylinder matting 1(S300-1 of present embodiment) and cylinder matting 2(S300-2), only in the situation that be set as the cylinder cleaning button of regulation and open and start washing procedure under the state of (ON) or the washing drying program carries out, start washing procedure or washing drying program in the situation that be set as closing under the state of (OFF), omit these mattings and carry out common washing running or washing dry operating.Therefore, as long as cylinder is cleaned and is set as opening (ON), even do not carry out other special cylinder cleaning procedure different from washing procedure or washing drying program, also can flow through tube wall surface at the water that automatically makes of washing procedure or washing drying program midway, thereby it is residual to make dirt be difficult to.
