The present invention relates to a two-tank washing machine, and more particularly to a two-tank washing machine with improved means for controlling water supply to a washing tank and a dewatering tank. Recently, in a two-tank washing machine, after the washing is finished, the items to be washed are transferred to the dehydration tank and dehydrated, and then, without taking out the items to be washed, clean water is poured into the dehydration tank to dilute the detergent in the items to be washed, and then dehydrated again. By squeezing out the detergent, then transferring it to the washing tank and performing the usual overflow rinsing,
A rinsing method using a dehydrator called a spin rinsing method is used, which greatly speeds up this overflow rinsing to reduce rinsing time and water consumption. In this case, to start storing water in the washing tank, first walk to the water faucet, open it, return to the washing machine, check the water level, and when the water level reaches the specified level, quickly walk to the faucet and close the faucet. To perform a spin rinse after washing,
Switch the water supply on the washing machine side to the water supply on the dehydration tank side, walk to the faucet and open it,
I quickly go back and monitor the flow, and after about a minute, I go to the faucet and close it. When the overflow rinse occurs, you go back to the faucet, turn it on, go back and monitor the water level in the wash basin to see if the water level remains constant, then go back to the faucet and adjust the opening of the faucet accordingly. After rinsing, close the faucet again. In this way, to complete one cycle of washing, the user must go back and forth between the faucet and the washing machine at least three times, and open and close the faucet three or more times. For this reason, the washing machine is equipped with a water supply switching mechanism that switches the tap water between the washing tank and the dehydration tank.
Even though the spin rinse method is available, the faucet has to be opened and closed frequently.
It is often not used because of its complexity. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a two-tank washing machine in which the water supply switching mechanism can be smoothly switched and the inlet to the channel opening/closing device of the new device can be located at an appropriate location. The present invention is characterized in that, in a two-tank washing machine, the center of the water supply switching mechanism and the operation center of the operation part of the water supply switching mechanism are aligned, and the inflow to the flow path opening/closing device is directly above the water supply switching mechanism. This is due to the fact that we have established a department. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a washing machine equipped with the water supply switching device of the present invention. Inside the outer frame 20, a washing tank 8 and a dehydration tank 9 are arranged side by side. There is a water faucet 2 near the center of the panel stand 1 that houses the washing machine control switches.
A joint part 4 is formed to which a water supply hose 3 having one end connected is attached, and tap water sent from the water supply hose 3 is guided to a water supply switching mechanism 6 via a water supply electromagnetic valve 5 inside the panel stand 1. The on-off control of the water supply electromagnetic valve 5 and the operation of the water supply switching mechanism 6 are both performed simultaneously and in conjunction with each other by the left and right sliding movements of the switching knob 7. To explain this internal structure more specifically, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, tap water from the faucet 2 passes through the water supply hose 3 and reaches the joint 4, and passes through the water supply solenoid valve 5 to the water supply switching mechanism. 6 to the inlet 12. A pipe-shaped distribution nozzle 14 is provided at the lower end of the inlet 12 and is swingable about a pin 13 as a rotation axis. The distribution nozzle 14 is controlled by the left and right sliding movement of the switching knob 7 protruding from the surface of the panel stand 1, and by the fork-shaped arm 7b of the slider 7a integrated with this, the arm 14a of the distribution nozzle 14 is controlled. When the pin 14b is engaged, it is configured to swing upward and horizontally. That is, when the switching knob 7 is moved to the left as shown in FIG. 2, the slider 7a and the arm 7b
The arm 14 of the dispensing nozzle 14, both moved to the left and engaged in the fork-shaped part of the arm 7b.
pin 14b of a is moved to the left side, dispensing nozzle 1
4 rotates around pin 13 and tilts to the left. Therefore, the tap water from the inlet 12 is guided to the left side and flows out into the washing side guide groove 15, and then flows into the washing tank 8 from the washing water supply port 10. Conversely, if the switching knob 7 is moved to the right, both the slider 7a and the arm 7b will similarly be moved to the right, and the pin 14 will be hooked onto the tip fork.
In order to turn b to the right, the distribution nozzle 14 is tilted to the right, and the tap water from the inlet 12 flows out into the dehydration side guide groove 16, is discharged from the dehydration water supply port 11, and is poured into the dehydration tank 9. Become. 17 is a partition, and 18 is a deceleration pin that decelerates the tap water. There are two switches 5c and 5d that turn on and off the electromagnetic portion 5a of the water supply solenoid valve 5 at the same time as the flow path switching operation by the switching knob 7 as described above. , is configured to be turned on at the end face of the slider 7a. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the switching knob 7 is operated in three steps. That is, when the switching knob 7 is set to the leftmost position L, the water supply switching mechanism 6 switches to water supply to the washing tank 8 side, and at the same time the switch 5c is turned on, the water supply solenoid valve 5 is turned on, and the flow path is opened, so that tap water is supplied. It is poured into the washing tank 8. Next, when the switching knob 7 is set to the center position C, the water supply switching mechanism 6 becomes a neutral state, and both switches 5c and 5d are turned off, and the water supply solenoid valve 5
is turned off, the flow path closes and the water supply stops. Next, when the switching knob 7 is set to the rightmost position R, the water supply switching mechanism 6 enters the dewatering side water supply state, and at the same time the switch 5d is turned on and the water supply solenoid valve 5 operates, opening the flow path and supplying tap water. It is poured into the dehydration tank 9. The control in conjunction with the above-mentioned switching knob 7 is as shown in the following table.

[Table] Here, in the present invention, the operating centers of the water supply switching mechanism 6 and its switching knob 7 are configured to coincide with each other in order to smooth the switching operation. That is, this is to equalize the left and right swing ranges of the distribution nozzle 14 of the water supply switching mechanism 6 to balance the swing resistance and equalize the left and right operating forces of the switching knob 7. Furthermore, a joint 4 for attaching the water supply hose 3 is arranged substantially above the center of these to visually inform the user that the water supply is distributed to the left and right. The water supply hose 3 is detachably connected to the inflow portion of the water supply electromagnetic valve 5. Although the above embodiment of the present invention has an extremely simple configuration, it has the following great effects. (1) There is no longer the need to go to the faucet to turn on and off the water supply and turn it on and off, and the water supply can be turned on and off with a single knob on the panel, greatly improving the operability of the water supply. (2) Water supply to the washing tank side, water supply stop, and water supply to the dehydration tank side can be operated by operating the switch button provided on the panel stand, making it especially easy to supply water to the dehydration tank and stop the water supply.
Spin rinses can now be easily used, saving water and speeding up rinsing. (3) Water supply can be easily controlled using a panel stand.
We were able to reduce the number of accidents that occurred in the past, where the water supply was left on and water overflowed from the washing tank. (4) Since the water supply solenoid valve and water supply switching mechanism are operated by one switching knob, the structure is simple, reliable, simple to operate, easy to use, and reliable. (5) The center of the water supply switching mechanism and the operating center of the switching knob are aligned, and the operating forces on the left and right sides of the switching knob are balanced, and the joint is provided almost directly above these centers. The user can intuitively understand the tap water supply route and its left and right branching status, and can easily understand the operating mechanism. (6) Since the joint of the water supply hose and the water supply switching knob are aligned on the same center, the design of related parts can be unified and an extremely good appearance can be obtained. As described above, according to the present invention, the center of the water supply switching mechanism and the operation center of the operation part of the water supply switching mechanism coincide with each other, and the inflow part to the channel opening/closing device is provided directly above the water supply switching mechanism. This makes it possible to balance the operating forces of the left and right operating parts of the water supply switching mechanism, and also makes it easy to understand the tap water supply route and its diversion to the left and right, making the switching operation of the water supply switching mechanism extremely smooth. In addition to being easy to use, by arranging the inlet to the channel opening/closing device directly above the water supply switching mechanism, the design of the inflow and the operation part of the water supply switching mechanism can be unified. Therefore, it is possible to provide a two-tank washing machine that can provide an extremely good appearance and improve the product value.
