It has a structure to discharge the laundry.

When washing laundry (eg, diaper) to which solid dirt is attached, it is necessary to remove dirt by washing with water and then wash with detergent. However, in the conventional continuous washing machine, even if sewage is removed from the laundry by the sewage basket, the sewage and the laundry cannot be separated, and the spilled waste is transferred to the detergent basket along with the laundry. I will end up. Therefore, in the past, a method has been adopted in which the number of stages of laundry baskets is set aside and a plurality of washing baskets are provided when washing diapers and the like.

As another method, a large amount of water is supplied to the outer body (first stage outer body) of the water washing basket to drain the dirt from the drain port, or the washing operation is temporarily stopped to wash the water washing basket. Attempts have been made to separate waste by once discharging the entire wash water inside the outer body of the plant.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The method of increasing the number of stages of the water washing basket needs to increase the number of stages of the washing basket of the apparatus, which causes a problem that the apparatus becomes large and the equipment cost increases. On the other hand, even if the method of replacing a large amount of water in the outer case of the washing basket is adopted, the drain port is attached to the lower end of the outer case in the conventional device, so that the dirt floating in the washing water can be efficiently discharged. In addition, it is difficult to prevent the redeposition of dirt on the laundry, and the amount of washing water and detergent used increases, resulting in higher running costs.

The present invention is a continuous water washing machine that can effectively separate solid waste in the washing step without increasing the number of steps in the washing basket, has low running cost, and is particularly suitable for washing diapers and the like. Is intended to provide.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The continuous water washing machine 1 of the present invention comprises outer cylinders 2a to 2f arranged in multiple stages and washing baskets 4a to 4f that rotate in each outer cylinder. An overflow port 13 is provided in the above so that the wash water of the outer case 2a of the washing basket is sequentially discharged from the overflow port 13 during the washing operation. It is preferable that the outer barrel 2a of the washing basket is provided with a return pipe 17 connected to the outer barrel 2e for rinsing, and the washing water 7e used for rinsing is returned and washed.

[0008]

[Action]

 In the continuous water washing machine having the above-mentioned structure, the filth separated from the laundry by the washing operation performed in the outer case 2a for washing is quickly discharged out of the apparatus together with the rinsing water (dirty water) overflowing from the overflow port 13 and once separated. The solid matter thus formed does not redeposit on the laundry 8. Further, in the continuous water washing machine having the above-mentioned structure, most of the dirt is separated in the outer case 2a for washing with water, so that the subsequent detergent washing step and rinsing step are facilitated and the number of steps of the apparatus is increased. No need. Further, if the cleaning water 7e used for rinsing is reused as the cleaning water 7a used in the outer case 2a for washing water, the water resources can be efficiently used.
