Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The invention relates to simplifying and integrating the conventional electric washing machine and electric clothes dryer system, that is, the device has a washing tub and a drying drum that are similar in shape. In order to make the equipment more common, the electric clothes dryer, the electric clothes dryer, the mounting stand, etc., which had been used separately in the past, were integrated into one and simplified.

Conventionally, this type of washer/dryer did not exist, and each was placed separately, which resulted in excessive storage space due to the installation of multiple devices, the need to assemble mounting stands and electrical work, and the need to transfer laundry. It had many serious drawbacks, such as being troublesome to operate the equipment and being expensive.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, and aims to share a washing tub in a conventionally known public electric washing machine and a drying drum in an electric clothes dryer, and to arrange the common washing tub at an angle. We supply a fully automatic washer/dryer that can perform all steps of water supply, washing, rinsing, drainage, dehydration, and drying.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail according to an embodiment shown in the drawings. That is, FIG. 1 shows an internal structural diagram of the fully automatic washer/dryer. Arranged ribs, 3 is a washing tank storage container, 4 is a washing f11 soap rotation mode used for washing, rinsing, dehydration, and drying, 5 is a ventilation fan, 6 is a heater, 7 is a water supply control valve, and 8 is a drainage control valve, 9
1 is a sequence control device, 10 is a laundry loading/unloading port, and a confirmation window, 1 is a drain plate installed in the ventilation hole part of the inside of the washing tub storage container, and 12 is inside the washing tub storage container. A limit switch for water level detection, 13 a sensor for detecting temperature inside the washing tub storage container, 14 a power switch and a tie? −
The decotl and the like are one of the essential parts constituting the so-called fully automatic washer/dryer.

Here, the washing tub 1 is arranged at an angle as described above.

This is an example of a device that eliminates the complexity of the mechanism and other troubles caused by conventional switching between vertical use during washing and horizontal use during drying, and further simplifies the washer/dryer. Therefore, ribs 2 are provided on the inner periphery of the washing tub 1.

As a result, the rotary blades used in the past can be removed, and it can also function as a rift for stirring the laundry, which is required when functioning as a drying drum, allowing for common use. As mentioned above, two or three ribs 2 are arranged on the inner periphery of the washing tub in order to have the same function as a conventional rotary blade and to stir the laundry in the drying drum. Set up That is, the rotary blade drive conventionally used for washing and scrubbing is eliminated, and as an alternative, the washing tub is driven to rotate intermittently in the same direction or to be driven to switch between normal and reverse rotation.

At this time, during the rotation of the washing tub 1, that is, during washing and washing, the applied voltage of the rotation mode 4 of the washing tub is sequence-controlled and voltage-controlled by the sequence control device 9, so that the washing tub is suitable for washing. The washing and rinsing processes are carried out by changing the water flow to the laundry by intermittent operation in the same direction or forward/reverse switching operation at low rotational speed. Here, the washing tub 1 and the ribs 2 are Since it also serves as the drum function during the drying process, a material with good heat conduction and heat retention properties, such as metal, is used. The washing tub storage device 3 always controls the amount of water and hot air inside the washing tub 2 for each process, that is,
A sequence control device 9, a water supply control valve 7, a drain control valve 8, and a water level detection limit switch 12 are used to maintain values suitable for water supply, washing, rinsing, drainage, dehydration, and drying.
, ventilation fan 15, and heater 6. The water level detection limit switch 12 is sequence-controlled together with the sequence control device 9 and the water supply control valve '/ in order to detect the water level in the washing tub container 3, that is, to appropriately control the amount of water inside the washing tub 1. . Still, the drain plate 11 that the washing machine 1 has installed in the ventilation hole part from the ventilation fan 75 inside the washing tub storage container 3 is not suitable for the washing tank storage container 3 and the washing machine 14N Preventing water from entering the DfTge ventilation hole during water supply, washing, scrubbing, and dehydration;
During drying, the hot air blown through the ventilation holes is efficiently applied to the laundry, and the washing tub is also warmed.

Like the washing tub 1, the washing tub storage device 3 is a fixed storage container that is arranged at an angle and is tied up and protected from the rotation of the washing tub inside and from water, etc.

The washing tub rotation mode 4, together with the sequence control device J, controls each washing, rinsing, spin-drying, and drying process. For example, a rotating shaft directly connected to the washing IM side 1 is brought out below the washing tub storage 3, and, for example,
Arranged so that it can be driven by a belt.

Here, during washing, the washing tub rotation mode 4 changes the water flow in the washing tub l by intermittent operation in the same direction at low speed or forward/reverse switching operation at low speed, and the same operation is performed during rinsing. At this time, the start and end times of processes such as washing and scrubbing are controlled by a program timer or the like built into the 6/- can control device 9.

Next, since the water diversion process is based on a well-known and publicly used principle of dewatering the laundry items by centrifugal force, the moder 4 is continuously operated in the same direction at high speed. At this time, since the washing tub 1 that functions as a spin-drying tub is arranged at an angle, the laundry items are unbalanced, and a large amount of water is impregnated at the start of spin-drying, the sequence control device 9 For example, Pal X only at startup
Driving is controlled and low acceleration is controlled.Next, the drying process is carried out according to the well-known and publicly used principle of drying by blowing warm air onto the laundry and cold air (no heating).

) Enables ventilation drying method. At this time, the washing tub 1, which functions as a drying drum, is arranged at an angle and is continuously operated in the same direction at a low speed by the sequence control device 9. During the drying period with the drying fan 5 and the heater 6 or alone, the sequence control device 9
controlled by A ventilation hole is provided to the outside of this fully automatic washer/dryer, and the ventilation fan 5 is guided through a duct. Immediately thereafter, the warm air is converted by the heater 6, and the air is supplied to the washing IF (
・In order to efficiently warm and dry the washing tub 1 and the laundry to be washed by blowing hot air into the ventilation rack of the storage 243, the air blowing route is determined along with the above-mentioned drainer 4ν). At this time, in order to determine the temperature limit of the hot air,
Inside the separately arranged washing citrus container [Crystalline detection 7/Tsu-13
and Noken control device (1) according to temperature. In addition, in the case of using the cold air (no heating) drying method, the temperature control part of the heater 6/can controller 9 and the temperature detection sensor 13 inside the washing tank container 111 can be removed, but on the other hand, the ventilation It is necessary to increase the amount of ventilation by the fan 5.The water supply control valve is controlled to open, together with the sequence control device 9, when water is required at the start of washing and during rinsing. In addition, the bath 1 water 11ii control 'jf8, together with the /-can control device 9, 6. When storing water or washing liquid inside the washing tub 1 and washing 411 to storage container 3 during washing and rinsing. In all other cases, the drain valve is opened Q+ and the drain or drain is maintained in a state where it is possible to drain. The mounting stand is integrated,
Not only is the structure simple, compact, and inexpensive, but it is also extremely easy to handle. It has a great effect.
