Definitions
- the invention is based on a method for improving the washing effect of washing in a washing machine with a laundry drum, which is temporarily driven at varying speeds and directions during the washing and rinsing process, to washing and less sensitive laundry, wherein in a phase of intensive laundry flow the Laundry drum in one direction of rotation to a speed well above the application speed - so-called wash-spin - and in the other direction of rotation is accelerated to a speed well below the application speed.
- the application speed is the speed at which the laundry items just start to adhere to the drum wall due to the centrifugal force caused.
- the laundry mechanics consisting of compression and friction between the individual items of laundry is considerably reduced in the known method during operation at speeds well below the application speed. When driving the laundry drum above the application speed, they are even completely missing, since the individual laundry items rest firmly on the laundry drum wall.
- Such or similar methods are due to the process-related reduced laundry mechanics for washing particularly sensitive or only hand-washable textiles suitable.
- a procedure for intensive washing of the laundry is also off DE 37 41 177 A1 known.
- the process described therein shows a weakness in the laundry redistribution of laundry items in particular large laundry loads, ie the targeted repositioning of internal pieces in the outer region of the laundry item and vice versa during the washing and / or rinsing process.
- EP 0 781 881 A1 discloses another method for washing laundry, wherein during the washing and rinsing process, the washing drum of a washing machine with alternating directions of rotation is driven. In a first phase, the laundry drum is accelerated to a speed lying well above the application speed and in a reverse direction of rotation to a speed lying well below the application speed. In addition, the method detects EP 0 781 881 A1 at least one more phase of high laundry mechanics.
- the invention has for its object to provide for the method described above, a mode of operation during the washing and / or rinsing process, in which a high laundry mechanism for cleaning less sensitive laundry is maintained and especially for large loads a good laundry redistribution takes place.
- a high laundry mechanism for cleaning less sensitive laundry is maintained and especially for large loads a good laundry redistribution takes place.
- an improvement in the uniform washing effect of a Wäschepostens and a reduction in water, detergent and energy consumption is desirable.
- This speed is optimized for washing machines whose laundry drums are equipped with scooping devices. During the creation of the free liquor no large laundry mechanics is achieved because the drum speed is too low for this purpose.
- the laundry leads, as in Fig. 3a shown for a half-full loaded laundry drum, during rotation of the drum with a scooping speed from a rolling motion.
- Less sensitive textiles can be washed at a much higher rate than the laundry washing mechanism described above.
- adequate washing and rinsing performance are not achieved.
- either program run times must be increased or more detergent used to compensate for the lack of washing performance.
- phase (A) of intense laundry flow a phase in which textile absorbs and releases liquor
- phase (B) of high laundry chemistry z. B. drum speed 50 1 / min, available.
- the phase (B) is characterized in that the laundry items are raised when turning the drum so far that they then fall back due to the acceleration of gravity back into the bottom of the drum.
- This movement sequence of the laundry within a half-full laundry drum is in Fig. 3b shown. In this process, much more mechanics is applied to the textile, as in a rolling motion, z. B. in the above-described "scooping".
- the laundry drum is driven alternately in each direction, ie in the so-called reversing operation.
- the duration and the sequence of the phase of intensive laundry flow, the operation of the laundry drum at well above and well below the application speed, and the duration and sequence of the phase high laundry mechanics are chosen so that the washing and rinsing is increased by the laundry mechanics so far that a short program runtime and / or a reduced use of detergent is achieved.
- a driver can be represented by a partially drawn inward drum shell as well as by an approximately triangular profiled, attached to the drum shell plastic part.
- Carrier have a symmetrical or asymmetrical cross section.
- Drum drums equipped with asymmetrical drivers are often driven in reversing mode with a different speed for each direction of rotation (eg 50 and 60 r / min).
- a fully loaded laundry drum there is not enough free space within the drum in which the laundry changes during reversing operation.
- the operation of a fully loaded laundry drum when "scooping" is in the Fig.
- a significantly higher speed (eg 150 l / min) is selected for the "spin-spinning" in order to compress the laundry lot significantly better, as shown in FIG Fig. 5a .
- a significantly higher speed eg 150 l / min
- the subsequent counter-rotation of the laundry drum causes external sloping laundry items to roll into the inner area.
- This process of unwinding the laundry is schematically, for example, at a drum speed 35 1 / min in Fig. 5b illustrated.
- the roles of Laundry in the inner area of the Wäschepostens advantageously supported.
- an immediate restart after the drum outlet is to be aimed at in order to counteract an uncontrolled collapse of the laundry without further rearrangement.
- a means for monitoring the foam is used and aborted when exceeding a predetermined limit, the wash-spin operation.
- a means for monitoring the foam is used and aborted when exceeding a predetermined limit, the wash-spin operation.
- To determine the foam in the tub are, for example, means for determining the hydrostatic pressure, the motor current, torque, the speed or their time derivatives.
- the monitoring means for. B. a device for engine speed monitoring, an imbalance and foam monitoring can be advantageously combined.
- the laundry weight integrated force or displacement sensors can serve, for example, in the washing machine. These sensors are so arranged in the device or on the spring-mounted oscillating system (tub container assembly) that a change in the known oscillating system weight or the known rest position can be determined by the additional laundry weight. From a determination of the lye taken up by the laundry (for example by means of a flow or pressure sensor) and from the associated time course, it is also possible to deduce the amount, type and absorbency of the textiles to be washed.
- the user of a washing machine specifies by his choice of program (eg cooking linen, easy-care, wool) how sensitive the textiles to be washed are. It has proven to be particularly advantageous, the drum speed (n1 to n3), section times (.DELTA.t1 to .DELTA.t6) and the duration (.DELTA.t A, .DELTA.t B) and sequence of phases "intensive laundry throughput” (A) and "high laundry” (B ) depending on the program selection to adapt the laundry mechanics to the sensitivity of the textiles.
- program eg cooking linen, easy-care, wool
- the drum which has a diameter of 470 mm, is accelerated in the clockwise direction gently to a speed (n3) of + 50 1 / min, lingers for a duration At1 at this speed and is then returned to a speed 0 1 / min , After a standstill time ⁇ t2, the process is repeated in reverse rotation of the drum. Whereby the dwell time ⁇ t3 during left-hand rotation can differ from the corresponding dwell time ⁇ t1 of the clockwise rotation. This reversing process is repeated for the duration .DELTA.t.sub.B of the phase (B) high laundry mechanics.
- the drum is gently accelerated in the clockwise direction to a speed (n1) of + 150 rpm, lingers for a period ⁇ t4 at this speed and is then returned to a speed 0 to immediately into the left-hand phase with a Speed (n2), for example, 35 1 / min for the duration .DELTA.t5 to be converted.
- a Speed (n2) for example, 35 1 / min for the duration .DELTA.t5 to be converted.
- a standstill period ⁇ t6 the process is repeated until the duration ⁇ t A of the phase (A) the intensive laundry flow is reached.
- a phase (B) of high laundry is again carried out.
- the indicated periods of time (.DELTA.t1 to .DELTA.t6, .DELTA.t.sub.A and .DELTA.t.sub.B) can be varied in every possible combination and, in the extreme case, can be single or all zeroes.
- FIG. 2 is opposite FIG. 1 a slightly different speed curve for the phase (B) of the high laundry mechanics shown.
- the speeds of the right and left rotation differ, for example, adapted to asymmetric drivers.
- the specified speed values n1, n2 and n3 are freely selectable within the limits specified by the claims. To achieve an optimum of effects must be taken into account for the selection of the speed in particular fixed machine parameters resulting from the dimension of the laundry drum, their flood holes, the driver, the scooping device and the resonance speed.
- the speed of the radius of the laundry drum is particularly important, since the radius determines the application speed mainly. Therefore, the advantageous nominal values of the speeds are predetermined by the specification of the peripheral speed of the laundry drum.
- a washing machine with a speed control device for the drive motor of the laundry drum is provided.
- Control signals for the drive motor can be generated by the speed control device in such a way that the laundry drum can be driven temporarily with changing directions of rotation at different speeds in at least one phase (A) of intensive laundry flow and at least one phase (B) of high laundry mechanics is.

Description
Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Verfahren zur Verbesserung der Waschwirkung von in einer Waschmaschine mit einer Wäschetrommel, die während des Wasch- und Spülprozesses zeitweise mit wechselnden Drehzahlen und -richtungen angetrieben wird, zu waschender und wenig empfindlicher Wäsche, wobei in einer Phase intensiver Wäschedurchflutung die Wäschetrommel in der einen Drehrichtung auf eine Drehzahl deutlich oberhalb der Anlegedrehzahl - sogenanntes Wasch-Schleudern - und in der anderen Drehrichtung auf eine Drehzahl deutlich unterhalb der Anlegedrehzahl beschleunigt wird. Die Anlegedrehzahl ist diejenige Drehzahl, bei der die Wäschestücke durch die verursachte Fliehkraft gerade beginnen an der Trommelwand zu haften.The invention is based on a method for improving the washing effect of washing in a washing machine with a laundry drum, which is temporarily driven at varying speeds and directions during the washing and rinsing process, to washing and less sensitive laundry, wherein in a phase of intensive laundry flow the Laundry drum in one direction of rotation to a speed well above the application speed - so-called wash-spin - and in the other direction of rotation is accelerated to a speed well below the application speed. The application speed is the speed at which the laundry items just start to adhere to the drum wall due to the centrifugal force caused.
Ein derartiges Verfahren ist aus
Solche oder ähnliche Verfahren sind aufgrund der verfahrensbedingten reduzierten Wäschemechanik zum Waschen besonders empfindlicher oder nur handwaschbarer Textilien geeignet.Such or similar methods are due to the process-related reduced laundry mechanics for washing particularly sensitive or only hand-washable textiles suitable.
Ein Verfahren zur intensiven Durchflutung der Wäsche ist auch aus
Bei den bekannten Verfahren wird auf Kosten einer verbesserten Wäschedurchflutung eine reduzierte Wäschemechanik auf die zu waschende Wäsche ausgeübt. Insbesondere bei wenig empfindlicher Wäsche wird durch die reduzierte Wäschemechanik eine zu geringe Reinigungswirkung erzielt. Somit wird kein optimales Waschergebnis erreicht. Zusätzlich wird bei den vorstehend beschriebenen Verfahren die Wäsche bei großen und sehr großen Wäschebeladungen nicht hinreichend gut umverteilt. Beispielsweise gelangen die innerhalb der Wäschetrommel innenliegenden Wäscheteile nicht an den äußeren Rand der Trommel. Es wird somit auf die einzelnen Wäschestücke eine sehr unterschiedliche, von ihrer jeweiligen Lage abhängige, Mechanik ausgeübt. Es ergibt sich dadurch innerhalb eines Wäschepostens ein sehr unterschiedliches Waschergebnis für innen und außen liegende Wäschestücke. Außerdem verklumpen häufig außenliegende Wäschestücke infolge ihrer intensiven lokalen Entwässerung. Auch dieser Effekt führt wieder zur Verringerung der Wäschemechanik einzelner Wäschestücke und zu einem ungleichmäßigen Waschergebnis.In the known methods, a reduced laundry mechanism is applied to the laundry to be washed at the expense of improved laundry throughput. In particular, with less sensitive laundry is achieved by the reduced laundry mechanics too low cleaning effect. Thus, no optimal washing result is achieved. In addition, in the methods described above, the laundry is not redistributed sufficiently well for large and very large loadings of laundry. For example, inside the laundry drum inside laundry parts do not reach the outer edge of the drum. It is thus exercised on the individual items of laundry a very different, dependent on their respective position, mechanics. This results within a Wäschepostens a very different washing result for inside and outside laundry. In addition, outboard laundry often clumps due to their intense local drainage. Again, this effect leads to the reduction of Laundry mechanics of individual laundry items and an uneven washing result.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, für das eingangs beschriebene Verfahren eine Betriebsweise während des Wasch- und/oder Spülprozesses vorzusehen, bei der eine hohe Wäschemechanik zur Reinigung weniger empfindlicher Wäsche erhalten bleibt und insbesondere bei großen Beladungen eine gute Wäscheumverteilung stattfindet. Außerdem ist damit eine Verbesserung der gleichmäßigen Waschwirkung eines Wäschepostens sowie eine Reduzierung des Wasser-, Waschmittel- und Energieverbrauches anzustreben.The invention has for its object to provide for the method described above, a mode of operation during the washing and / or rinsing process, in which a high laundry mechanism for cleaning less sensitive laundry is maintained and especially for large loads a good laundry redistribution takes place. In addition, an improvement in the uniform washing effect of a Wäschepostens and a reduction in water, detergent and energy consumption is desirable.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch das Verfahren nach Anspruch 1 und durch die Waschmaschine nach Anspruch 8 gelöst, wobei innerhalb des Wasch- und/oder Spülprozesses die Wäschetrommel in mindestens einer Phase ;,intensiver Wäschedurchflutung" und in mindestens einer weiteren Phase "hoher Wäschemechanik" angetrieben wird. Diese Phasen folgen innerhalb des Wasch- und/oder Spülprozess mindestens einmal aufeinander. In der Phase "intensiver Wäschedurchflutung" wird die Wäschetrommel in der einen Drehrichtung auf eine Drehzahl deutlich oberhalb der Anlegedrehzahl, d.h. dass bei der einen Drehzahl die Umfangsgeschwindigkeit der Wäschetrommel der ersten Drehzahl größer gleich 3,7 m/s ist, und in der anderen Drehrichtung auf eine zweite Drehzahl deutlich unterhalb der Anlegedrehzahl beschleunigt. In der Phase "hoher Wäschemechanik" wird die Wäschetrommel in beiden Drehrichtungen auf Drehzahlen, bei denen die einzelnen Wäschestücke stark gestaucht werden und sich stark aneinander reiben, beschleunigt.This object is achieved by the method according to

Um die Durchflutung der Wäsche mit Lauge intensiv zu gestalten, wird bei dem bekannten Verfahren gemäß
Im Gegensatz zu den bekannten Verfahren ist bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren im Wasch- und/oder Spülprozess sowohl mindestens eine Phase (A) intensiver Wäschedurchflutung, eine Phase bei der Textil Lauge aufnimmt und wieder abgibt, als auch mindestens eine Phase (B) hoher Wäschemechanik, z. B. Trommeldrehzahl 50 1/min, vorhanden. Die Phase (B) zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass die Wäschestücke beim Drehen der Trommel so weit angehoben werden, dass sie dann aufgrund der Erdbeschleunigung wieder in den Trommelbodengrund zurückfallen. Dieser Bewegungsablauf der Wäsche innerhalb einer halb voll beladenen Wäschetrommel ist in
Beim Reversierbetrieb einer halb voll beladenen Wäschetrommel wird eine gewisse Umschichtung der Wäsche bewirkt. Das Anheben der Wäsche wird durch an der Trommel befestigte sogenannte Mitnehmer unterstützt. Ein Mitnehmer kann durch einen partiell nach innen gezogenen Trommelmantel als auch durch ein annähernd dreieckförmig profiliertes, am Trommelmantel befestigtes Kunststoffteil dargestellt werden. Mitnehmer haben einen symmetrischen oder asymmetrischen Querschnitt. Wäschetrommeln, die mit asymmetrischen Mitnehmern ausgestattet sind, werden im Reversierbetrieb häufig mit einer für jede Drehrichtung unterschiedlichen Drehzahl (z.B. 50 und 60 1/min) angetrieben. Bei einer voll beladenen Wäschetrommel ist nicht genügend freier Raum innerhalb der Trommel vorhanden, in dem sich die Wäsche im Reversierbetrieb umschichtet. Der Betrieb einer voll beladenen Wäschetrommel beim "Schöpfen" ist in der
Wenn die Drehzahl der Wäschetrommel deutlich oberhalb der Anlagedrehzahl und gleichzeitig deutlich unterhalb der Resonanzdrehzahl liegt, reicht diese Drehzahl insbesondere bei großen Wäschebeladungen nicht aus, um den Wäscheposten stark zu komprimieren. Das heißt, dass auf die innenliegenden Wäschestücke eine relativ geringe Kraft ausgeübt wird und die Wäscheentfeuchtung dieser Textilen dadurch geringer ausfallen wird als bei den außenliegenden Textilien. Zur Erläuterung ist die Kompression der Wäsche in einer Wäschetrommel, die mit einer deutlich unterhalb der Resonanz liegenden Drehzahl (z. B. 100 1/min) angetrieben wird, in
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird deshalb für das "Wasch-Schleudern" eine deutlich höhere Drehzahl (z. B. 150 1/min) gewählt, um den Wäscheposten deutlich besser zu komprimieren, dargestellt in
Um eine Überbeanspruchung des Antriebs oder der Laugenbehälter-Baugruppe zu vermeiden, wird in einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung, insbesondere während dem Abschnitt des Wasch-Schleuderns, die sich ausbildende Unwucht überwacht und beim Überschreiten eines vorbestimmten Grenzwertes der Wasch-Schleuderbetrieb abgebrochen. Zur Bestimmung der Unwucht eignen sich beispielsweise Mittel zur Feststellung des Laugenbehälter-Schwingweges, des Motorstroms, -drehmoments, der Drehzahl oder deren zeitliche Ableitungen.In order to avoid overstressing the drive or the tub assembly, in an advantageous development of the invention, especially during the portion of the spin-washing, which monitors forming imbalance and aborted when exceeding a predetermined limit value of the washing-centrifugal operation. To determine the imbalance, for example, means for determining the tub-oscillating travel, the motor current, torque, the speed or their time derivatives are.
Während des Wasch-Schleuder-Betriebes ist ebenso ein Eintauchen der Innentrommel in die frei im Laugenbehälter befindliche Lauge zu vermeiden, um keine zusätzliche Schaumbildung zu bewirken. Vorteilhafterweise wird ein Mittel zur Überwachung des Schaums eingesetzt und bei einem Überschreiten eines vorbestimmten Grenzwerts, der Wasch-Schleuder-Betrieb abgebrochen. Zur Feststellung des im Laugenbehälter befindlichen Schaums eignen sich beispielsweise Mittel zur Feststellung des hydrostatischen Drucks, des Motorstromes, -drehmoments, der Drehzahl oder deren zeitliche Ableitungen. Bei geeigneter Wahl des Überwachungsmittels, z. B. einer Einrichtung zur Motordrehzahlüberwachung, können eine Unwucht- und Schaumüberwachung vorteilhaft kombiniert werden.During the wash-spin operation, it is likewise necessary to avoid immersing the inner drum in the liquor which is freely present in the tub so as not to cause additional foaming. Advantageously, a means for monitoring the foam is used and aborted when exceeding a predetermined limit, the wash-spin operation. To determine the foam in the tub are, for example, means for determining the hydrostatic pressure, the motor current, torque, the speed or their time derivatives. With a suitable choice of the monitoring means, for. B. a device for engine speed monitoring, an imbalance and foam monitoring can be advantageously combined.
Wie auch schon in den vorstehenden Ausführungen angesprochen, sind die Verfahren zur Wäscheumlagerung stark abhängig von der Beladungsmenge. Neben der Menge sind auch die Saugfähigkeit und die Art des Textils bei der Prozessauslegung zu berücksichtigen. Nutzungsbedingt setzt ein Gebraucher eines Waschgerätes ein großes Spektrum an verschiedenen Wäscheposten und -mengen in Waschgeräten ein. Daher werden vorteilhafterweise Mittel zur Feststellung der Art und/oder Wäschemenge eingesetzt, um davon abhängig die Drehzahlen (n1 bis n3), Abschnittszeiten (Δt1 bis Δt6) und die Dauer (Δt A, Δt B) und Abfolge der Phasen (A und B) intensiver Wäschedurchflutung und hoher Wäschemechanik einzurichten. Als geeignete Mittel zur Bestimmung des Wäschegewichtes können beispielsweise im Waschgerät integrierte Kraft- oder Wegsensoren dienen. Diese Sensoren sind so im Gerät bzw. am federnd gelagerten Schwingsystem (Laugenbehälterbaugruppe) angeordnet, dass eine Veränderung des bekannten Schwingsystemgewichtes bzw. der bekannten Ruhelage durch das zusätzliche Wäschegewicht bestimmbar ist. Aus einer Bestimmung der von der Wäsche aufgenommenen Lauge (z. B. mittels Durchfluss- oder Drucksensor) und aus dem dazu gehörigen zeitlichen Verlauf kann außerdem auf die Menge, Art und Saugfähigkeit der zu waschenden Textilien geschlossen werden.As already mentioned in the preceding remarks, the processes for the transfer of laundry are heavily dependent on the amount of load. In addition to the quantity, the absorbency and the type of textile in the process design must also be taken into account. As a result of usage, a user of a washing machine uses a wide range of different laundry items and quantities in washing appliances. Therefore, means for determining the type and / or amount of laundry are advantageously used to depend on the rotational speeds (n1 to n3), section times (.DELTA.t1 to .DELTA.t6) and the duration (.DELTA.t A, .DELTA.t B) and sequence of phases (A and B) of intensive laundry flow and high laundry mechanics. As a suitable means for determining the laundry weight integrated force or displacement sensors can serve, for example, in the washing machine. These sensors are so arranged in the device or on the spring-mounted oscillating system (tub container assembly) that a change in the known oscillating system weight or the known rest position can be determined by the additional laundry weight. From a determination of the lye taken up by the laundry (for example by means of a flow or pressure sensor) and from the associated time course, it is also possible to deduce the amount, type and absorbency of the textiles to be washed.
Der Gebraucher einer Waschmaschine gibt durch seine Programmwahl (z. B. Kochwäsche, Pflegeleicht, Wolle) vor, wie empfindlich die zu waschenden Textilien sind. Es hat sich als besonders vorteilhaft erwiesen, die Trommeldrehzahl (n1 bis n3), Abschnittszeiten (Δt1 bis Δt6) und die Dauer (Δt A, Δt B) und Abfolge der Phasen "intensiver Wäschedurchflutung" (A) und "hoher Wäschemechanik" (B) abhängig der Programmwahl auszuführen, um die Wäschemechanik an die Empfindlichkeit der Textilien anzupassen.The user of a washing machine specifies by his choice of program (eg cooking linen, easy-care, wool) how sensitive the textiles to be washed are. It has proven to be particularly advantageous, the drum speed (n1 to n3), section times (.DELTA.t1 to .DELTA.t6) and the duration (.DELTA.t A, .DELTA.t B) and sequence of phases "intensive laundry throughput" (A) and "high laundry" (B ) depending on the program selection to adapt the laundry mechanics to the sensitivity of the textiles.
Beim Beispiel, dargestellt in der
In
Die angegebenen Drehzahlwerte n1, n2 und n3 sind innerhalb der durch die Patentansprüche angegebenen Grenzen frei wählbar. Zur Erzielung eines Optimums von Wirkungen müssen zur Wahl der Drehzahl insbesondere auch feststehende Maschinenparameter berücksichtigt werden, die sich aus der Abmessung der Wäschetrommel, ihrer Flutlöcher, der Mitnehmer, der Schöpfeinrichtung und der Resonanzdrehzahl ergeben. Bei der Wahl der Drehzahl ist insbesondere der Radius der Wäschetrommel maßgebend, da der Radius die Anlegedrehzahl hauptsächlich bestimmt. Daher werden die vorteilhaften Nennwerte der Drehzahlen durch die Vorgabe der Umfangsgeschwindigkeit der Wäschetrommel vorgegeben.The specified speed values n1, n2 and n3 are freely selectable within the limits specified by the claims. To achieve an optimum of effects must be taken into account for the selection of the speed in particular fixed machine parameters resulting from the dimension of the laundry drum, their flood holes, the driver, the scooping device and the resonance speed. When choosing the speed of the radius of the laundry drum is particularly important, since the radius determines the application speed mainly. Therefore, the advantageous nominal values of the speeds are predetermined by the specification of the peripheral speed of the laundry drum.
Zur Anwendung des Verfahrens ist erfindungsgemäß eine Waschmaschine mit einer Drehzahl-Steuereinrichtung für den Antriebsmotor der Wäschetrommel vorgesehen. Durch die Drehzahl-Steuereinrichtung sind Steuersignale für den Antriebsmotor derart generierbar, dass die Wäschetrommel im Wasch- und/oder Spülprozess zeitweise mit wechselnden Drehrichtungen bei jeweils unterschiedlichen Drehzahlen in mindestens einer Phase (A) intensiver Wäschedurchflutung und mindestens einer Phase (B) hoher Wäschemechanik antreibbar ist. Die Waschmaschine kann neben der Drehzahl-Steuereinrichtung auch mit weiteren Steuereinrichtungen wie z. B. einer Bedienelektronik oder Leistungselektronik ausgestattet sein. Diese Steuereinrichtungen sind mittels Daten- oder Busleitungen miteinander verbunden. So kann auch durch eine Leistungs- und/oder Bedienelektronik ein Steuerbefehl bzw. eine Steuerbefehlsfolge erzeugbar und über die Daten- oder Busleitung an die Drehzahl-Steuereinrichtung übertragbar sein.For the application of the method according to the invention a washing machine with a speed control device for the drive motor of the laundry drum is provided. Control signals for the drive motor can be generated by the speed control device in such a way that the laundry drum can be driven temporarily with changing directions of rotation at different speeds in at least one phase (A) of intensive laundry flow and at least one phase (B) of high laundry mechanics is. The washing machine can in addition to the speed control device with other control devices such. B. a control electronics or power electronics. These control devices are interconnected by means of data or bus lines.
