Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a washing machine with a tub for storing washing liquid or rinsing liquid, in which a drum is rotatably mounted, and a heating device for heating the washing or rinsing liquid, comprising a washing cycle for washing a Wäschepostens, with a washing phase, in which at least one predetermined amount of water is introduced into the tub, and at least one phase rinsing, wherein the washing cycle consists of a sequence of the individual phases.
  • the laundry For washing laundry in a washing machine, the laundry is moved in a first phase with heated water with the addition of detergent with strong or less strong drum motion. This treatment procedure leads to the detachment and removal of dirt from the laundry.
  • the laundry In order to achieve a good development of the detergent and a good soil solution, the laundry is usually moved for about 20 to 30 minutes in the washing liquid, depending on the laundry to be washed, the washing liquid is heated to a predetermined temperature. Based on the selected wash program and some optionally selectable additional parameters, the treatment procedure for a specific laundry item or textile type is determined. For this purpose, the program running in the controller is configured.
  • the user thus buys the comfort gained due to the lack of intermittent wiping with a poorer dishwashing result and with the need to end defrosting by an additionally selected sling program to have to perform. In this case, there is also the danger that too high a spin speed is selected for a high proportion of easy-care textiles.
  • the EP 0 835 955 A2 discloses a universal program for a load mix of coloreds and easy-care textiles. On the basis of the suction behavior of the laundry, the rhythm of rotation of the drum is automatically adjusted, whereby always washed with an increased water level compared to a normal program
  • the invention is thus based on the object to improve the washing of laundry for a uniform or mixed laundry items in a washing machine in a simple manner.
  • the main advantage of the method according to the invention is that the washing or treating of different textile types is provided in a single wash cycle. Furthermore, the user is provided with a simple and clear possibility for configuring the washing program, wherein the washing program is configured with regard to the sequence and the parameters by the selection of the textile types to be treated. The user only needs to know the types of textile that are to be washed together in a wash cycle.
  • the individual phases are selected on the basis of a selection from at least two different, stored textile-specific washing cycles, so that a single combined washing cycle is created for the simultaneous washing of different textile types in the drum.
  • This has the advantage that, with the configuration of the washing cycle or washing program, an optimal adaptation of the washing process to the actually introduced laundry is undertaken.
  • at least two different or different textile types can be selected, from which textile-specific washing cycles or textiles-specific washing programs stored in the memory of the control device are read in each case parts and / or phases to form a new, combined washing cycle or washing program.
  • the individual phases are each determined from a combination of parameters, wherein the individual parameters at least the temperature and Determine the temperature profile of the washing liquid, the duration of treatment, the intensity of the drum rotation and the water level.
  • the combined parameter set is in this case created for each individual phase of the wash cycle with parameters from individual, different parameter sets, which are intended for each textile type.
  • the selection of the combined washing cycle by means of an operating handle of an operating device, wherein after selecting the combined washing cycle, the selection of the textile-specific washing cycles.
  • the individual phases or the individual parameters of the textile-specific washing cycles are selected by means of a rank identifier assigned to the respective phase and / or parameters.
  • the rank identifier determines from which textile-specific wash cycle or parameter set the respective phase or the respective individual parameter is taken over into the combined wash cycle or parameter set. In this case, the highest-ranking phases or parameters are adopted. The phases or parameters with lower rank are then not taken over into the combined washing cycle or parameter set.
  • the ranking is set so that each of the phase and / or the parameter has the highest rank for the acquisition in the combined washing cycle, with the optimal protection of all selected textile types is ensured. This always ensures that no laundry damage due to improper treatment in the washing process occur. Eventually higher water consumption or a longer program runtime will be accepted.
  • a washing cycle with textile-specific phases or parameters is provided for at least three types of textile and / or types of soiling. This provides a good choice of individual phases or parameters for creating the combined wash cycle. It may also be provided more textile-specific wash cycles, which can be selected to form the combined wash cycle.
  • the creation of the combined washing cycle takes place on the basis of the selection of at least two textile-specific washing cycles.
  • the user can wash two different types of fabric in a wash cycle.
  • the choice of four textile-specific washing cycles has been found, which means that nearly 90% of the household types occurring in a combined washing cycle can be washed optimally.
  • an incompatibility of selected textile types can be determined by means of the ranking code if these are not together in one washing cycle can be washed. The occurrence of an incompatibility is reported to the user. This provides the user with the opportunity to dispense with a type of textile and remove it from the laundry item to be washed before the combined wash cycle is started.
  • the invention further relates to a control device for a washing machine or a washer-dryer, having a microcontroller and a memory connected to the microcontroller, in which a computer program and a plurality of specific washing cycles or parameter sets are stored, wherein the computer program is adapted to a section the program for performing a combined washing cycle, such that individual phases or parameters that determine the temperature profile, the treatment duration and the intensity of the drum rotation of a phase can be determined from textile-specific, selectable washing cycles based on a user selection.
  • the invention further relates to a washing machine or a washer-dryer with a housing and arranged therein, swingably attached tub in which a drivable with a motor drum is rotatably mounted, a water inlet valve, a drain device, a heater and a control device asurbannannt, with the Heater, the motor, the water inlet valve and the drain device are controllable, and an operating handle which is operatively connected to the control device which is adapted to select one or more thereof from a variety of textile types and / or types of contamination.

  • Fig. 3 is exemplified by a tabular representation of the selection process for the compilation of the combined washing cycle KW clarified.
  • a textile-type-specific washing cycle WP is provided for each textile type or type of contamination to be selected.
  • three different types of fabrics are selected: jeans, shirts and sportswear.
  • Each washing cycle which is deposited as a program in the memory of the controller, the individual phases are each provided with a rank identifier RANG, which determines the selection of which individual phase or from which textile-specific washing cycle (jeans, shirts, sports) the respective individual phase in the combined washing cycle KW is taken over.
  • the pre-treatment phase VB of the textile-specific wash cycle for jeans with two has the highest rank recognition, so that this phase is taken over into the combined wash cycle KW.
  • This is outlined with the arrows, which show which individual phase of which textile-specific washing cycle is entered or adopted in the combined washing cycle.
  • the prewash phase of the wash cycle for sports in this example has the ranking RANK 3 and thus the highest rank.
  • this prewash phase VW of the washing cycle for sports is taken over into the combined washing cycle KW. Accordingly, the selection of the other phases washing, rinsing and spin takes place. The selection is configured so that the most gentle treatment is always ensured for the laundry items to be washed.
  • Fig. 4 is the selection of each parameter for a single phase, here washing WA, outlined.
  • the parameters mentioned here are the duration, drum movement, temperature, temperature hold time and water level. As already mentioned, these are schematic details which have to be implemented according to programming technology for a computer program.
  • the washing phase for the textile type jeans includes as a time parameter a total duration of 40 minutes and a strong drum movement, based on a standard program for coloreds.
  • the strong drum movement is achieved by a speed in the range of about 40 1 / min to 60 1 / min with a drive duration in the range of 60% to 90%.
  • the temperature value set by the user is the temperature value for heating the washing liquid.
