Abstract

The inner assembly (2) is suspended such that it can vibrate in a laundry treatment machine. The assembly has a laundry drum (4) and a drive such as electric motor (8), for driving the laundry drum. A vibration sensor is rigidly coupled to a component of the internal unit. The vibration sensor is an electronic sensor. The vibration sensor is based on a measurement principle using capacitive effects and or inductive effects and or piezoelectric effects. A printed circuit board and the vibration sensor is a printed circuit board module on the printed circuit board. An independent claim is included for a method for controlling a washing machine and use of an electronic sensor as a movement sensor in an inner assembly.
