The secondary water outlet pipe 4 is connected with external secondary water equipment, and the external secondary water equipment may be a toilet. A turbidity sensor 11 and a first water level sensor 15 are arranged in the water tub 2 , and an anhydrous detector 14 is arranged in the integrated water tank 3 .

The washing machine is equipped with a computer control board, and the washing machine control circuit receives the detection result of the turbidity sensor 11, and controls the first switching valve 8 to connect to the drain pipe 17 when the washing water is heavily turbid (such as the first washing water). At this time, the drain pump 6 It is also in the starting state, and the laundry water is directly pumped to the drain pipe 17 to discharge the floor drain; when the laundry water is slightly turbid (rinsing water), the first switching valve 8 is connected to the integrated water tank inlet pipe 12, and the laundry water is pumped by the drainage pump 6 Sent to the integrated water tank 3 for storage, as toilet flushing or as the first washing water, ready to use when washing clothes next time, if the water in the integrated water tank is too much, it can also overflow through the overflow port 18. When the washing machine needs water to wash clothes, the water stored in the integrated water tank 3 is used first, that is, the integrated water tank 3 of the washing machine is first detected by the anhydrous detector 14, and in the state of the water signal, the secondary water switching valve 7 is controlled to connect to the water tank for the second time. The water inlet pipe 13 and the integrated water tank drainage pump 5 are started, and the secondary water is pumped to the secondary water inlet pipe 13 of the washing machine and enters into the washing machine bucket. In the no-water signal state, the computer control board controls the secondary water switching valve 7 to close, and the washing machine is fed by the tap water inlet valve 16 until the first water level sensor 15 senses that it is full of water.

The computer control panel of the washing machine is also provided with a toilet water level detection port, and the toilet is provided with a second water level sensor 9. When the second water level sensor 9 detects that the toilet water tank is at a low water level and the integrated water tank is in a state of water, the secondary water switching valve 7 switches to In the state of communicating with the secondary water outlet pipe 4, start the integrated water tank drainage pump 5 to pump the stored water in the integrated water tank to the toilet tank for water replenishment. Water tank drainage pump 5 stops working, prevents the water of washing machine integrated water tank from overflowing from toilet.

Embodiment two

As shown in FIG. 2 , it is another embodiment of a washing machine with water storage function, which includes a washing machine top cover 1 , a water tub 2 , and an integrated water tank 3 . The bottom of the water tank 2 is provided with a first drain port 2.2 and a second drain port 2.3, and a tap water inlet valve 16 is provided above the water tank.

A computer control panel is arranged in the washing machine, and a "secondary water outlet key" is arranged on the washing machine operation interface. The normal washing procedure of the washing machine is: first water intake → washing → first draining → first dehydration → second water intake → first rinse → second draining → second dehydration → third dehydration Water → second rinse → third drain → third dehydration. When draining for the first time, the second drainage circuit in the computer control panel controls the action of the second drainage pump 19, and the sewage is discharged outside the washing machine through the drainpipe 17, and is discharged from the floor drain. When the washing machine runs to the second drainage or the third drainage, the first drainage circuit in the computer control panel controls the action of the first drainage pump 6, and enters the integrated water tank 3 through the integrated water tank drain pipe 12 for standby. For a long time, also can overflow by overflow port 18.

When the washing machine needs to take in water to wash clothes, the integrated water tank 3 of the washing machine is first detected by the anhydrous detector 14, and if there is water, the water in the integrated water tank 3 is preferentially used. At this time, the secondary water switching valve 7 is opened, and the secondary water switching valve 7 has three states, which are respectively closed, the position of passing the secondary water inlet pipe, and the position of passing the secondary water outlet pipe. The water tank drainage pump 5 operates, and the secondary water enters the washing machine through the secondary water inlet pipe 13 of the washing machine. If no water is detected, the washing machine is fed by the tap water inlet valve 16 until the first water level sensor 15 senses that it is full of water.

When the external equipment needs to use secondary water, for example, the toilet water tank water level sensor 9 detects that there is no water, then press the "secondary water outlet key" on the washing machine, the secondary water switching valve 7 is opened, and turn to the position of "connecting the secondary water outlet pipe". ", the integrated water tank drainage pump 5 operates, and the secondary water is discharged through the secondary water outlet pipe 4, so as to mop the floor or flush the toilet. When the secondary water needs to be closed, press the "secondary water outlet key" on the washing machine again, the secondary water conversion valve 7 turns to the closed state, and the integrated water tank drainage pump 5 stops acting.

The secondary water in the integrated water tank can be used as toilet water or as washing water, depending on which situation requires priority.
