Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a washing machine with a tub for receiving washing liquid for treating laundry and a heater, the method comprising a washing phase, a rinsing phase and a spin phase with a subsequent steaming phase, with water in the tubing for the steaming phase is admitted to a predetermined limit value G, which the drum does not reach, but can be heated by the heater.
  • the laundry is moved in the rotating drum, which causes the laundry to be wetted or moistened with the washing liquid and the washing mechanism.
  • the laundry is usually dewatered by a spin phase in which the drum is rotated at a speed at which the laundry rests against the drum shell and the water is forced out of the laundry by centrifugal action.
  • the items of laundry are heavily stressed, so that creases occur.
  • it is from the EP 1 275 767 A1 known to add steam to the laundry after spinning. The steam supply loosens and removes creases from the laundry, making ironing easier.
  • the DE 10 2007 041 906 A1 discloses a washing machine that provides a steaming function by means of the heating element in the tub.
  • a steaming function by means of the heating element in the tub.
  • the heating element is covered with water while the steam is being generated, but the water level must not be so high that the drum or the laundry in the drum is directly exposed to and moistened with the water.
  • the water level is measured or recorded in the known manner by means of a pressure sensor.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a method in which an exact metering of the amount of water admitted into the tub is provided for steaming in a simple manner.
  • the main advantage of the method according to the invention is that with the sensors already present in the washing machine, the amount of water in the tub is determined very precisely and with fine-grain measurements. As a result, a small amount of water, in contrast to the amount of water required for a washing phase, can be let into the tub, as is necessary for the steam phase.
  • the water inlet is controlled by means of an inlet valve.
  • the inlet valve can be controlled very easily and precisely by means of a control device.
  • step b) the values of the pressure sensor are additionally used for the detection of pressure fluctuations, the drum being moved.
  • an additionally recorded value of a water meter is used in step b) for the second plausibility check.
  • step b) the specified value for the temperature sensor has an increase value in the range from 3K to 5K after the water inlet, the value of the pressure sensor a value of 20 mm Ws and the value for the recorded pressure fluctuations is approximately 3 mm Ws to 5 mm Ws. The pressure fluctuation is recorded while the drum is rotating.
  • step a) at a pressure value of less than 7 mm water column, step a) is ended and the drain device is activated, step a) then being repeated at least once in order to set an initial value for the water level in the tub detect. It is very easy to record these limit values, so that no expensive precision components are required in the washing machine.
  • a drain device for emptying the tub is activated when the amount of water taken in exceeds the specified amount of water by a threshold value, steps a) and b) then being repeated.
  • a threshold value a threshold value used here, but this only occurs in the case of rare, temporary malfunctions of the sensors or misinterpretations of the recorded values.
  • a washing machine 1 with a tub 2 is shown in a purely schematic representation.
  • the position and direction details relate to the operational set-up position of the washing machine 1.
  • Inside the tub 2 is a rotatably mounted drum 3 driven by an electric motor 13, which moves the laundry items 8 in the tub 2.
  • the drum 3 is made of stainless steel and is provided with a large number of openings for the flow.
  • the housing 4 has a loading opening 9 through which the The interior of the drum 3 can be reached through the sealing collar 6.
  • the loading opening 9 can be closed by means of a door 5.
  • a heater 7 is arranged, which can heat the washing liquid in the tub.
  • an inlet valve 15 is sketched, which provides the inlet of the water from the supply network.
  • the water is passed through the dispenser box 11 via the connecting pipe 14 into the tub 2, with detergent introduced in the dispenser drawer 11 being flushed into the tub 2 with it.
  • a drainage device 12 is arranged below the tub 2, which leads the used washing liquid or the rinsing water out of the tub 2 to the drain line 12c, which as a rule opens into a sewer.
  • the control device 18 controls the inlet valve 15, the activity of the drain device 12, the drive motor 13, which is energized via the power unit or a frequency converter 16, and the heating element 7.
  • Fig. 1 it is also shown that the level of the washing liquid 19 is just below the drum 3, so that it does not come into contact with water. It can also be seen that at level G the heating element 7 is completely under water, so that steam can now be generated with this.
  • a pressure sensor 17b detects the water level and pressure fluctuations when the drum is moving. The water temperature in the tub 3 is recorded with the temperature sensor and the amount of water taken in is recorded with the water meter 17c.
  • the inlet valve 15 is controlled by the control device 18 as a function of these detected values.
  • a complete sequence of a wash program WP is shown in a diagram as an example.
  • the individual phases within the washing program WP are shown on the time axis t.
  • the program sequence WP shown here comprises a washing phase Wa, a rinsing phase Sp and a spin phase Sc.
  • the water inlet 15 and the outlet 12 are controlled accordingly.
  • the heating element 7 is also controlled accordingly in order to heat the washing liquid 19 to the predetermined temperature.
  • the steam phase Da which follows the spin phase Sc
  • steam is generated in the tub 2, which causes the laundry items 8 to crease.
  • water is let into the tub up to a predetermined limit value G, which does not reach the drum but can be heated by the heating element (7).
  • Fig. 3 Sketched as a state diagram the phase Da, in which the steam for treating the laundry 8 is generated and fed into the treatment room in the interior of the tub 2 and the drum 3 of the laundry.
  • state S1 it is checked whether there is no more residual water in the tub 2.
  • a plausibility check is carried out on the basis of the detected sensor signals of the pressure sensor 17b (detected pressure), so that on the basis of this check it can be determined clearly and reliably whether there is still an inadmissible amount or too little residual water in the tub 2. If the plausibility check shows that there is a residual amount of water in the tub that does not correspond to the initial value, the status change to state S4, in which the drain device 12, such as the drain valve or drain pump 12a, is activated to empty the tub 2 and then to to bring the initial state.
  • the drain device 12 such as the drain valve or drain pump 12a
  • state S1 After a preset time, for example 10 seconds to 50 seconds, the state changes to state S1, in which it is checked again whether the amount of water in the tub 2 corresponds to the initial state. If it is determined that the tub 2 is in the initial state, a change is made to state S2. In state S2, water is let into the tub 2, in which the control device 18 activates the inlet valve 15 and thus opens it so that water reaches the tub 2 via the feed lines. In this case, the signals of the pressure sensor 17b, the water quantity counter 17c and the temperature sensor 17a are recorded continuously or in a clocked manner and subjected to a plausibility check.
  • the specified water level is set very precisely and finely granular in terms of measurement technology, the water level being selected so that the heating element 7 is completely under water, but the drum 3 is not reached by the water. If, due to unpredictable errors, the water level exceeds the specified one, the system changes to state S4.
  • the drain device 12 is activated in order to empty the tub and the procedure begins anew. If it is determined that the water level has reached the specified value, a change is made to state S3. In this state, the heating element 7 is activated, so that steam is generated, with which the laundry items 8 in the interior of the drum are acted upon.
  • the drum can be rotated in a reversing or non-reversing manner, so that a loose movement of the laundry items 8 is caused.
  • the above-mentioned water level control can also be used for other phases of the washing process, for example for supplying fresh water for the washing phase Wa or for the rinsing phase Sp.
