Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the overflow even if water is left pouring due to the failure of a water valve, etc., when the power is off in a washer for washing, rinsing, and spin-drying the laundry inside a drum mounted rotatably around a horizontal axis. SOLUTION: The drum is rotatably mounted inside a water receiving tub, to which water is supplied through a water valve 20. A first water level, higher than a prescribed level inside the water receiving tub, is detected by a first water level detecting means 30, and a second water level detecting means 31 with a switch 31a for detecting a second water level lower than the first water level inside the water receiving tub is connected in parallel to a relay 32 for turning on/off the power. The washer also has a control means 34 for controlling a motor 14 for driving the drum, a drain pump 12, etc. The control means 34 turns the power on by the motion of the second water level detecting means 31, locks a lid for closing the opening of the drum by a lock device 29, and operates the drain pump 12 intermittently based on a signal from the first water level detecting means 30.
