Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for washing clothes such as underwear and outerwear, and is used in the general washing field.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, when washing with a washing machine, the problem is how to economically save the amount of water and detergent used and the washing time without damaging the fabric material. In conventional washing machines, efforts such as heating the washing water, devising the water flow, improving the detergent function, etc. are made, but with these methods alone,
It is almost impossible to reduce the amount of water or detergent used and the washing time, because it is unavoidable that the washability is deteriorated, the fabric is damaged, and lint is not generated.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved] As described above, the conventional method is a washing method that emphasizes only the function of the detergent and the function of water flow, and therefore lint is generated due to friction, which significantly reduces the value of the fabric, and Requires detergent and water, and requires considerable washing time. On the other hand, there is a strong demand for a method of preventing friction during washing so that lint does not occur so much, the fabric is not damaged, and the amount of detergent is short and the washing time is short. In addition, heavy use of detergent increases the concentration of detergent in wastewater, which leads to environmental damage. Therefore, it is strongly desired to reduce these.

[0004]

As a means for solving the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a washing machine for an electron emission electrode plate enclosed by an insulating rubber connected by a conductive wire from a high voltage AC electrostatic potential generator. And a method of performing washing while applying the high-voltage AC electrostatic potential generated from the high-voltage AC electrostatic potential generator to the electron emission electrode plate, which is attached to the wall of the main body or the casing of the stirring motor.

The high-voltage AC electrostatic potential generator uses an AC transformer and is adjusted to generate a high-voltage AC electrostatic potential of 50/60 cycles of 300V to 3000V. And 2
Both electrodes on the next side are connected with high resistance, and one electrode taken out from one end is connected to the electron emission electrode plate. The electron emission electrode plate is made of brass metal. At a high voltage AC electrostatic potential of 300 V or less, the washing effect was poor, and at 3000 V or more, this was excluded from the viewpoint of safety, and a desirable high voltage AC electrostatic potential was set in the range of 300 V to 3000 V in 50/60 cycles.

By performing washing while applying a high-voltage AC electrostatic potential to the main body of the washing machine as described above, the clothes to be washed are ionized into negative charges ▲-▼. At the same time stains ▲
-Ions are ionized and act as a peeling force that repels each other to remove dirt. On the other hand, the stain ionized in (-) assists the permeability of water, accelerates the hydration reaction of the stain, enhances the solubility, and acts to peel the stain from the clothing. Further, the washing water to which the high-voltage AC electrostatic potential is applied becomes structural water of a smaller group of water molecules, and is converted into washing water having better permeability. Further, the high-voltage AC electrostatic potential causes a microvibration, and the microvibration further promotes the separation of the dirt, and the above-mentioned actions are combined to further enhance the washing effect. Due to this effect, the amount of water used, the amount of detergent and the washing time can be significantly reduced.

[0007]

The function of the high-efficiency electron cleaning method of the present invention is to exert the efficiency of washing effect by the ionizing action, the penetrating action and the microvibrating action as described above.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings 1) and 2). An electron emission electrode enclosed by an insulating rubber connected by a conductive wire from a high-voltage AC electrostatic potential generator built in the main body of the electric washing machine shown in FIG. Washing was performed while applying a high-voltage AC electrostatic potential of 1,200 V for 50 cycles.

The results are shown in the table below. Applied potential 50/60 cycles 30 in the method of the invention
Almost the same result was obtained within the range of 0V to 3000V. As can be seen from the table, the electron selection method of the present invention is superior to the conventional one.

[0010]

In the high efficiency electronic washing method of the present invention,
As is clear from the experimental examples, excellent cleaning effects are exhibited, such as increasing the water permeability, increasing the solubility of dirt, and facilitating removal of dirt by the action of electrostatic repulsion.
In addition, there are few thread scraps during washing and there is no damage to the fabric. In addition, the amount of detergent used can be reduced by 30 to 50%, and the amount of water used for washing can be reduced. In particular, it has been found that the amount of rinsing water required is small, which leads to a reduction in the time required for washing. In addition, it was found that the fabric washed with this device had improved whiteness, showed softness even after drying, and dried humwari, and the fabric lasted longer.
