Definitions

  • the invention relates to a balancing system for a washing machine and to a method for operating the balancing system of a washing machine.
  • washing machine comprising a drum
  • present invention will mainly be described in conjunction with a washing machine comprising a horizontally rotating drum.
  • the balancing problem of a washing machine when spinning at high rotational speeds, e.g. during a drying cycle, is one of the most important problems. It is an important criterion that affects the performance of the machine. It is desirable to distribute the laundry in a balanced way in the machine, but this is virtually impossible since the laundry will distribute within the drum in an accidental manner. An unbalanced drum will cause strong vibration if not moving of the washing machine and also produces a lot of noise. Previous solutions to this problem are mainly based on estimations of the imbalance by software and the subsequent correction of this imbalance by various means which may require a relatively high number of trial and error cycles.

  • the washing machine 100 can comprise a lid (not illustrated) reversibly sealing or closing the tub 103 from the exterior of the housing 101.
  • the tub 103 is sealed from the inside of the housing 101 to prevent liquid from flowing into the housing 101 and connected by conventional tubing 103 to a water inlet and a water outlet (not illustrated).
  • the washing machine 100 can also comprise a motor 104 for rotatably moving the drum 102 via driving means, i.e. a drive, e.g. by a wheel connected to the backside of the drum 102 and a belt connecting the drum 102 with a drive of the motor 104.
  • the drum 102 may comprise at least one baffle (not illustrated) positioned on the wall, preferably three or five baffles which assist in preventing the laundry from sticking to the inside of the wall of the drum 102 and assist in creating turbulences in the washing liquid comprising the laundry and thus an improved washing efficiency.
  • the washing machine 100 is equipped with a compartment system 105 for reducing the potential imbalance of a drum 102 of the washing machine 100 as illustrated in figure 1 and also in more detail in figure 2.

  • suitable attachment means e.g. by welds, screws, etc.
  • the pipe 107 is placed circumferentially over the wall of the drum 102. In this way the pipe 107 is prevented from detaching from the drum 102 even when the drum 102 is spinning at high speed.
  • a pipe 107 can be made of any suitable fluid-tight material, like e.g. metal or plastic.
  • one compartment 106 is connected to two pipes 107, however, it also possible that the compartment 106 is connected to only one pipe 107.

  • the valves 1 14 are placed at a connection between the compartment 106 and the pipe 107. Due to the valves 1 14 the pump 108 does not prevent the flow of fluid when the pump 108 is turned off and the amount of liquid in the compartments 106 can be maintained without an activated pump 108.
  • Each compartment may be sealable from the remainder of the compartment system by two valves 1 14.
  • the compartment system 105 is a closed circuit with respect to the liquid contained therein. Thus, regularly no liquid is removed from the compartment system 105 or added.
  • a maintenance valve (not illustrated) which is closed during operation of the washing machine 100 and provides a connection from the compartment system 105 to the space outside the compartment system 105 may be provided. In this way, the liquid may be exchanged, removed or added when required when the washing machine 100 is not operating.
  • the liquid may be any suitable liquid, that is liquid at room temperature.
  • the liquid may be water, distilled water or/and water containing preservatives. Before operation the pipes may be filled completely with liquid and the liquid in each compartment of the compartment system 105 may occupy up to 50 vol./vol. % of the volume of each compartment 106.
  • Each compartment 106 can also comprise a gaseous exchange means 1 15, e.g. a membrane window 1 15, which is impermeable to the liquid in the compartment system 105, but permeable to air. Due to the gaseous exchange means 1 15 it is possible to modify the amount of liquid within a compartment 106 without producing a pressure drop or rise in the compartments 106 when adapting the amount of liquid in the respective compartments 106.
  • a gaseous exchange means 1 15 e.g. a membrane window 1 15, which is impermeable to the liquid in the compartment system 105, but permeable to air.

  • the gaseous exchange means 1 15 are preferably positioned at section of the wall of the compartment 106 that is close to the wall of the drum 102. During the spinning of the drum 102 this section which is closer to the axial center of the drum 102 will remain free of liquid due to the centrifugal force exerted by the drum 102. Thus, air can transfer through the gaseous exchange means 115 from within the compartment 106 to the outside or vice versa.
  • a first controller 109 is operably connected to the pump 108 and to the optionally present valves 1 14.
  • the controller can activate or deactivate the pump 108 and can also signal to the pump 108 that it is operating in a normal mode or a reverse mode.

  • the washing machine 100 may also contain a second controller 1 10 configured to determine an imbalance of the drum 102 when the drum 102 is rotating.
  • the second controller 1 10 may also control the pump 108 of the at least one compartment system 105 via the first controller 109.
  • the second controller is usually not affixed to the drum, but may be positioned in another place within the housing and this is not placed on any moving part.
  • the imbalance of the drum 102 can be determined by a known system of the art.
  • a sensor maybe mounted on a rotation shaft on which the drum 102 rotates for detecting irregularities involved in rotation of the drum 102.
  • a vibration sensor (not illustrated) may be placed on the tub 103, e.g. a magnetorestrictive sensor or load cell.
  • the first controller 109 can thus be operatively connected to sensors configured to determine an imbalance of the drum 102 when the drum 102 is rotating and thus the first controller 109 is configured to determine an imbalance of the drum 102 and control the activation or deactivation of the pump 108 of the compartment system 105 via the first controller 109, for example, by sending an appropriate signal to the first controller 109 which in turn sends an appropriate signal to the pump 108 and optionally the valves 1 14.
  • the connection of the first controller 109 with the pump 108 and/or valves 1 14 is provided by appropriate signaling cables which are fixed to the drum 102, e.g. parallel to the pipe(s) 107.
  • the second controller 1 10 may contain a memory comprising a predefined imbalance value, i.e. a threshold value.
  • a predefined imbalance value is a measure of the degree of imbalance determined by the second controller 1 10 and the above described sensors. The imbalance value will depend on the particular imbalance determination system used. For example, in case of the use of a vibrational sensor, a degree of vibration can be determined.
  • a predefined imbalance value is a fixed threshold value that defines beginning with which imbalance value the drum 102 is considered to be imbalanced. The imbalance value may be predefined or present in the memory connected to the second controller 1 10 or may be adapted by the input of a user.
  • the second controller 1 10 can determine whether an imbalance exists by comparing the determined imbalance value with the predefined imbalance value. The determination may only be activated when the rotation of the drum 102 is above a certain rotation threshold, for example, 1000 rotations per minute or any rotation threshold that indicates a spinning mode of the washing machine 100.

After this step the second controller 1 10 can perform a further imbalance determination and determine a second imbalance value.
  • the second imbalance value is determined after a fixed time period after the determination of the first imbalance value, e.g. 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 1.5 seconds, or up to 10 seconds.
  • the imbalance value may be proportional or inverse proportional to the determined imbalance. While the present disclosure describes an imbalance value is proportional to the determined imbalance, it also disclosed that the imbalance value is inverse proportional to the determined imbalance resulting in an reversed relation of the determined imbalance values.
  • the pump 108 When determining that the second imbalance value is below the first determined imbalance value, but still not below the predefined imbalance value, the pump 108 is controlled to continue to transfer liquid from the first compartment 106 to the second compartment 106 of the pair of compartments 106.

  • the washing machine 100 may further comprise a power source on the drum 102 configured to provide electrical energy to the first controller 109 and the at least one compartment system 105.
  • This power source may be a replaceable and/or wirelessly rechargeable, e.g. via inductive charging.
  • the washing machine 100 comprises at least two of the compartment systems 105, preferably two of the compartment systems 105.

Alternatively, the washing machine 100 may comprise further first controller 109s, one for each compartment system 105.
  • the advantage of having two compartment systems 105 consisting of two compartments 106 each is that they will be positioned exactly at 90° to each other with respect to the axis of the drum 102 on the wall of the drum 102. Thus, the imbalance of the drum 102 may be more efficiently reduced.
  • the washing machine 100 comprises more than two compartment systems 105, e.g. any number between 3-20 to further refine the imbalance control mechanism.
