Definitions

  • the speed values are electrical quantities in the Speed control circuit of a modern washing machine anyway and a load-dependent electrical quantity can also be an existing one in the speed control circuit Value for the motor current or the phase angle of the motor current, so that it is for the invention Foam detection no additional components requirement.
  • the inventive method is particularly advantageous Washer trained by the fact that when the Signals with a magnitude that indicate the presence of a the drum stops braking amount of foam that Spin drive of the drum at least for a limited Duration switched off is set up. During the switch-off period of the centrifugal drive, the foam at the bottom of the Suds container collapse. The remaining lye residues are according to a further advantageous development the washing machine according to the invention during the The centrifugal drive is switched off by a drain pump pumpable.
  • FIGs in Figures 1 and 2 show the course of the Motor current i over time t and the associated drum speed n over time. Proportional to that shown Current through the drum drive motor is the leading edge angle, the as a control variable from the control circuit for the drum drive motor can be removed immediately can.
  • the laundry item observed for recording the diagram in FIG. 2 still contained foam-forming lye.
  • the current curve in the diagram during the spin-up phase until it reaches about 220 min -1 is about the same as that in the diagram in FIG. 1.
  • the level of current consumption during the speed plateau 100 min -1 and the drop in current after the needle tip when accelerating to about 220 min -1 is already significantly higher than in the corresponding sections in FIG. 2.
  • this termination of the spin start another consequence be switched in the preceding program sequence.
  • it can be important to use the centrifugal drive Turn the drum off at least for a limited period. It would be advantageous during the switch-off period of the centrifugal drive continue to run the washing machine drain pump, with it lye resulting from collapsing Foam continues to collect, immediately removed from the tub can be. Lye that is no longer in the tub remains, can no longer form further foam take part.
  • control circuit can be designed in this way be that in principle the one already installed by the manufacturer Number of rinses and a spin start attempt be carried out, but then this first attempt at start-up a number corresponding to the learned experience of rinse cycles before the next spin start attempt is connected downstream.

Claims (9)

  1. Procédé de détermination d'un freinage indésirable du tambour de lavage pendant une phase d'essorage dans une machine à laver commandée automatiquement, dotée d'un moteur d'entraínement dont la vitesse de rotation peut être ajustée par un circuit de régulation de la vitesse de rotation et peut être définie en fonction d'une valeur de consigne et d'une valeur effective de la vitesse de rotation, et qui sert à entraíner le tambour de lavage à plusieurs vitesses de rotation différentes pour le lavage, le rinçage et l'essorage, caractérisé en ce que, pendant une phase d'essorage, un signal est délivré au circuit de commande de la machine à laver, lequel signal constitue une mesure d'un freinage indésirable du tambour de lavage et est déterminé par le rapport mutuel entre les paramètres de fonctionnement du moteur d'entraínement ci-dessous :
    a) vitesse de rotation de consigne,
    b) vitesse de rotation effective, et
    c) une grandeur électrique dépendante de la charge.
  2. Procédé selon la revendication 1, avec un circuit de régulation de la vitesse de rotation sur base d'une commande par découpage des phases, caractérisé en ce que la grandeur électrique dépendante de la charge est l'angle de découpage de phase de la tension d'alimentation du moteur d'entraínement.
  3. Procédé selon la revendication 1, avec un circuit de régulation de la vitesse de rotation sur base d'une commande par hacheur, caractérisé en ce que la grandeur électrique dépendante de la charge est le courant consommé par le moteur d'entraínement.
  4. Procédé selon la revendication 1, 2 ou 3, caractérisé en ce que, lorsqu'un signal dont la grandeur permet de conclure à la présence d'une quantité de mousse freinant le tambour est appliqué, l'entraínement d'essorage du tambour est débranché au moins pendant une durée limitée.
  5. Procédé selon la revendication 4, caractérisé en ce que pendant la durée du débranchement de l'entraínement d'essorage, une pompe à eau de lessive est en outre entraínée.
  6. Procédé selon la revendication 4 ou 5, caractérisé en ce que pendant la durée du débranchement de l'entraínement d'essorage, le tambour est entraíné à vitesse lente en sens inverse.
  7. Procédé selon l'une des revendications 1 à 6, caractérisé en ce qu'après la constatation de la présence d'une quantité de mousse freinante, au moins une autre opération de rinçage est lancée.
  8. Procédé selon la revendication 7, caractérisé en ce que la ou les autres opérations supplémentaires de rinçage sont effectuées à un plus haut niveau d'eau de lessive.
  9. Procédé selon la revendication 7 ou 8, caractérisé en ce que le nombre des tentatives de démarrage de l'essorage est mémorisé dans un système du circuit de commande, et pour les opérations ultérieures de traitement, à partir de certaines fréquences de ces nombres, un nombre correspondant à la valeur déterminée expérimentalement d'opérations de rinçage est soit ajouté par anticipation au nombre d'opérations de rinçage réglé par le fabricant, soit réglé avant la tentative suivante de démarrage de l'essorage.
