ている。(Means for Solving the Problems) The electric washing machine of the present invention includes a rinsing degree setting means for setting a desired rinsing degree, and a rinsing degree detection device for detecting a rinsing degree indicating the progress of rinsing from the transparency of washing water. and means for comparing the detected rinsing degree with the set rinsing degree and terminating the rinsing operation on the condition that the former exceeds the latter, and the rinsing degree is actually detected as the desired rinsing degree. The time required for rinsing is dynamically controlled based on the degree of rinsing.
以下、本発明の作用を実施例と共に詳細に説明する。Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention will be explained in detail together with examples.
(実施例)
第1図は、本発明の一実施例の電気洗濯機に内蔵される
制御部の構成を示すブロック図である。(Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a control section built into an electric washing machine according to an embodiment of the present invention.
この制御部は、プロセッサl、濯ぎ度設定部2、透明度
センサ3、操作部4、駆動部5を備えている。This control section includes a processor 1, a rinsing degree setting section 2, a transparency sensor 3, an operation section 4, and a drive section 5.
濯ぎ度設定部2は、ポテンショメータとこのポテンショ
メータの操作によって設定されるアナログ電圧値をディ
ジタル電圧値に変換するD/A変換器とから構成され、

値をプロセッサlに出力する。The rinsing degree setting unit 2 is composed of a potentiometer and a D/A converter that converts an analog voltage value set by operating the potentiometer into a digital voltage value,
A voltage value corresponding to the degree of rinsing set by the user of this electric washing machine is output to the processor l.

定間隔保ちながら向かい合せに配置された発光ダイオー
ド3aと受光ダイオード3bの対から構成されている。As shown in FIG. 2, the transparency sensor 3 is mounted on the inner wall of the washing tub using a member 3a that includes a pair of light emitting diodes 3a and light receiving diodes 3b which are placed facing each other while maintaining a predetermined distance in the washing tub. It consists of
濯ぎ動作中は発光ダイオード3aから所定光量の光が放

透明度が高まるほど増加する。従って、プロセッサ1は

み具合を検出することができる。During the rinsing operation, a predetermined amount of light is emitted from the light emitting diode 3a, and the amount of light received by the light receiving diode 3C is detected. The amount of light received by the light receiving diode 3c increases as the amount of detergent contained in the rinsing water decreases and the transparency of the rinsing water increases as rinsing progresses. Therefore, the processor 1 can detect the progress of rinsing from the detection result of the amount of light received by the transparency sensor 3.

A motor, etc. (not shown) is driven via the .

止させて濯ぎ動作を終了する。When the processor 1 starts the rinsing operation in response to a command from the operation unit 4, the processor 1 reads the setting value of the rinsing degree from the rinsing degree setting unit 2 and sets it in the register (step 11), and the drive unit 5
is activated in rinse mode (step 12). The processor 1 reads the transparency from the transparency sensor 3 (step 1
3), this is converted into a rinsing degree indicating the progress of the rinsing operation (step 14), and this detected and converted rinsing degree is compared with the rinsing degree set by the rinsing degree setting section 2 (step 1).
5) If the detected rinsing degree is less than the set rinsing degree, the processor 1 returns to step 13 and repeats the above-described detection and comparison operations. When the detected rinsing degree exceeds the set rinsing degree, the processor 13 proceeds to step 16, stops the operation of the drive unit 5, and ends the rinsing operation.

効果が奏される。(Effects of the Invention) As described above in detail, the electric washing machine of the present invention detects the rinsing degree indicating the progress of rinsing from the transparency of the washing water, and compares this with a preset rinsing degree. Since the configuration includes means for terminating the rinsing operation on the condition that the former exceeds the latter, the time required for rinsing can be dynamically controlled based on the desired rinsing degree and the actually detected rinsing degree, This has the effect that over-rinsing and under-rinsing can be resolved as the user gets used to it.
