Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling a washing process in a programmable controller controllable washing machine, which is equipped with a Waschstoffein réelleeindchtung and with a sensor for detecting a value for the turbidity of the washing liquid.
  • a washing machine for carrying out the method is also specified.
  • An initially designated method is out DE 36 03 323 A1 known.
  • the sensor is used to measure the turbidity of the liquor flowing through a circulation line in order to control processes in the laundry treatment by means of its turbidity values. Further details are not included in the cited disclosure.
  • WO 2006/050767 For example, a method for determining a property of a fluid for a household appliance is known. This should make it possible to make statements about the fluid turbidity and its change in a simple manner and derive properties associated with the optical turbidity of the fluid, derived therefrom (eg, washing or detergent type). How such statements are made, how they are processed and what influences they have does not emerge from this revelation.
  • JP 05 220292 A US 5 438 507 A .
  • JP 04 166194 A and JP 05 345094 A known.
  • a fluid turbidity is detected and depending on the type or type of detergent used closed.
  • the fluid turbidity is detected in these methods after the detergent has been added to the fluid. According to these methods, the washing process is controlled depending on the determined detergent type.
  • the invention has for its object to set up a method described above so that detected in a washing machine, the random and indefinite use of different types of detergent and automatically taken into account in the called washing process to avoid erroneous interpretations of the actual haze caused by laundry soiling.
  • detergent types are to be understood as meaning those which differ from one another due to cloudiness due to embedded particles or without such particles.
  • These are, for example, powdered detergents ( Fig. 1 and 2 ) on the one hand and on the other hand liquid detergents ( Fig. 3 ).
  • Powdered detergents also differ in those which contain completely soluble powder fractions ( Fig. 1 ), and those whose powdery particles do not dissolve ( Fig. 2 ).
  • Liquid detergents ( Fig. 3 ) always dissolve completely, so they have no insoluble particles. Once recognized, which type of detergent was used, this finding should influence the selected wash program.
  • this object is achieved by a method described in the characterizing part of claim 1, characterized in that over a certain period of a portion of the washing process, during which the washing liquid is supplied detergent, the course of the turbidity values is recorded and recorded that from the recorded history of the detergent type is determined and that the washing process is controlled depending on the particular type of detergent.
  • the type of detergent used can now be determined in a simple manner and the selected washing program can be modified with regard to this type of detergent.
  • the measured values of the turbidity determined during the continuous washing process can now be related to a turbidity of the washing liquid caused by the detergent used.
  • powder detergents generally trigger a high initial turbidity, in the further course they show a constant or even falling turbidity, which increases slightly depending on the dirt load from the laundry to be washed.
  • Liquid detergents initially cause a relatively slight turbidity, which is predominantly due to foam which may be formed, and generally increases in the course of time as a function of the amount of dirt introduced.
  • Powdered detergents still differ significantly from one another in that completely soluble powder causes a very high initial haze, which decreases very rapidly (depending on the dissolving behavior), while washing powders with insoluble particles (eg in the case of zeolite powders) cause a comparatively lower initial haze. which, with increasing detachment of particle-containing contamination additively to turbidity from the powder particles (eg builders of zeolite) soon increases again to the level of the initial turbidity.
  • the diagram line PL1 in Fig. 1 shows in period A a steep increase in turbidity T to a high value, which is arranged by a sensor in a reasonably turbulent area of the washing machine, is detected.
  • the detergent is removed from a detergent dispenser (see, for example, US Pat DE 36 03 323 A1 ) supplied by means of fresh water the laundry treatment room.
  • B indicates the dissolution phase and shows almost completely disappeared values for the turbidity used for the completely soluble detergent used.
  • Only after the onset of the particulate soiling detachment process in section C does the turbidity T rise again. At these values, the dissolved detergent has virtually no share; From then on, its proportion is only equal to the initial value at the beginning of section C. Therefore, virtually all the values measured afterwards are due to the soiling of the laundry.
  • Fig. 1 to 3 the dashed diagram line O is also shown, which represents the turbidity curve of a washing liquid, if no detergent is used at all. It is to be assumed that even then a small part of the dirt particles of the laundry will be transferred into the washing liquid, so that the turbidity values T will increase slowly over the time t, but of course remain well below those values which occur when using Adjust detergents.
  • the determined and recorded course of the turbidity values T over the time t is compared with stored progressions, each of which stands for a certain type of detergent. Since different types of detergent types are likely to deviate from this stored course to some extent, the comparison may not be drawn very sharply. Under no circumstances may the permissible tolerance range overlap with the tolerance range of the curve of another type of detergent, so that the selection is ensured.
  • the curve PL2 of the turbidity values T in Fig. 1 However, while the course PL1 has been caused, for example, by a wool wash powder, the course PL2 may originate, for example, from a washing powder for cotton wool. Corresponding deviations can be found in FIGS. 2 and 3 are also registered if they have been caused by detergents of another type but of the same type.
  • Such automatic detection of the detergent used also entails an equally automatic adjustment of the washing process.
  • corresponding process settings are made for the detection and comparison of the turbidity values T with thresholds. This can affect both the washing process and the rinsing process.
  • the result of the automatic detergent detection can be optically signaled, z.
  • such a stored history can be generated by an expert system that examines all processes for matches and deviations, classified and then makes appropriate adjustments automatically.
  • an expert system that examines all processes for matches and deviations, classified and then makes appropriate adjustments automatically.
  • such a system can follow changing conditions on the market of detergents, so that the inventive method requires no external care.
  • a washing machine in which a method according to the invention is to be carried out expediently has a detergent dispensing device with at least one chamber in which optionally a portion of a powdered or a liquid detergent can be held.
  • a slide can be provided in such a chamber as a flow seal, which is pushed when using liquid detergent in the working position. When using washing powder, it is then placed upwards from this position, so that the washing powder can be washed out freely when fresh water is supplied.
  • a washing machine designed according to the invention can also be equipped with an automatic detergent dosing system in addition to the detergent dispensing device for the hand-dosed portioning of washing powder or liquid detergent. If the customer has not prepared any hand-dosed detergent portion for a selected washing program, then the method according to the invention can also detect this condition by registering the course of the turbidity according to the diagram line O. The comparison of this course with a correspondingly stored course automatically leads to the result "no detergent available". In the case of a washing machine without an additional automatic detergent dosing system, this will lead to a standstill of the washing machine and the corresponding signaling "washing agent is missing". However, if the washing machine has an automatic dosing system, then the control unit can also automatically switch over to the use of this dosing system.
