이하, 첨부도면에 의거하여 본 발명의 세탁기의 섬유유연제 자동투입장치를 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, on the basis of the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a fiber softener automatic injection device of the washing machine of the present invention.

본 발명의 세탁기의 섬유유연제 자동투입장치는 제4도 및 제6도에 도시된 바와 같이, 일정량의 섬유유연제(101)를 보관가능하고, 세제(201)가 저장된 세제통(200)의 급수구(210)와 연통되는 섬유유연제의 유출로(110)가 형성된 섬유유연제통(100)과, 상기 유출로(110)를 횡단왕복운동하고, 통공(321)을 구비하여 횡단운동에 따라 상기 유출로(110)를 개폐하게 되는 유로개폐판(320)과, 상기 유로개폐판(320)의 횡단운동을 안내하는 개폐판가이드(340)와, 상기 유로개폐판을 동작시키는 솔레노이드 (310)로 구성된다.The automatic feeding device of the fabric softener of the washing machine of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, can store a certain amount of the fabric softener 101, and the water supply port of the detergent container 200 in which the detergent 201 is stored ( A fluid softener cylinder 100 having a fluid flow path 110 formed therein and communicating with the fluid flow path 210 and a transverse reciprocating motion of the fluid flow path 110 are provided with a through hole 321. The flow path opening and closing plate 320 to open and close the 110, the opening and closing plate guide 340 for guiding the transverse movement of the flow path opening and closing plate 320, and the solenoid 310 for operating the flow path opening and closing plate.

한편, 상기 유로개폐판(320)의 일단에는, 유로개폐판(320)의 이동시 유로개폐판(320)의 통공(321)이 상기 유출로(110)와 연통된 상태에서 유로개폐판(320)이 정지하도록 위치결정하는 멈춤가이드(330)이 설치되어 있다. 또한 유로개폐판(320)의 타일단의 솔레노이드측에는 유로개폐판(320)이 유출로(110)을 차단하는 경우 유로개폐판(320)과 개폐판가이드(340)의 틈새로 누유가 발생되는 것을 방지하기 위한 탄성의 누유방지판(350)이 설치되어 있다.On the other hand, at one end of the passage opening and closing plate 320, the passage opening and closing plate 320 of the passage opening and closing plate 320 is in communication with the outflow path 110 when the passage opening and closing plate 320 is moved. A stop guide 330 is provided for positioning so as to stop. In addition, when the flow path opening and closing plate 320 blocks the outflow path 110 at the solenoid side of the tile end of the flow path opening and closing plate 320, oil leakage occurs due to a gap between the flow path opening and closing plate 320 and the opening and closing plate guide 340. An elastic leak prevention plate 350 is installed to prevent it.

한편, 상기 섬유유연제(100)의 상부의 섬유유연제 통커버(120)의 하면에는 힌지(131)에 회전가능하게 연결된 부유부재(132)와 상기 부유부재에 연결된 지시침 (133)이 설치되고, 섬유유연제통거버(120)의 일측에는 투명판(121)이 형성되어 지시침(133)이 이동에 의해 섬유유연제(101)의 잔류량을 표시하게 된다. 섬유유연제통커버(120)에는 개폐를 위한 손잡이(123)이 형성되어 있다.On the other hand, the lower surface of the fabric softener tube cover 120 of the upper portion of the fabric softener 100 is provided with a floating member 132 rotatably connected to the hinge 131 and the indicator needle 133 connected to the floating member, A transparent plate 121 is formed at one side of the fiber softener cylindrical gerber 120 so that the indicator needle 133 moves to display the remaining amount of the fiber softener 101. The fabric softener cover 120 is formed with a handle 123 for opening and closing.

한편, 섬유유연제 유출로(110)의 높이(L)은 섬유유연제통(100)의 높이(H)보다 크다. 이는 유출로의 높이가 섬유유연제통의 높이에 비해 높을수록 섬유유연제 투입량의 편차가 적기 때문이다. 즉, 섬유유연제 유출로의 높이가 섬유유연제통의 높이와 같을 경우, 투입유량의 편차는, 식에 따라 √2gh * (√2-√1)/√2gh = (0.41)이므로 41%정도차이가 있고, 유출로의 높이가 투입통의 높이의 2배인 경우에는 투입유량의 편차는, √2gh * (√3-√2)/√2gh * 0.21에서 21%정도의 차이가 난다.On the other hand, the height (L) of the fiber softener outflow passage 110 is larger than the height (H) of the fiber softener cylinder (100). This is because the height of the outflow path is higher than the height of the fabric softener container, so that the variation of the amount of the fabric softener is smaller. That is, if the height of the fabric softener outflow path is the same as the height of the fabric softener barrel, the variation of the input flow rate is √2gh * (√2-√1) / √2gh = (0.41) according to the equation so that there is a difference of about 41%. In the case where the height of the outflow path is twice the height of the input container, the variation of the input flow rate varies by 21% from √2gh * (√3-√2) / √2gh * 0.21.

이하, 본 발명의 세탁기의 섬유유연제 자동투입장치의 작용을 설명한다.Hereinafter, the operation of the fiber softener automatic injection device of the washing machine of the present invention.

먼저, 제7도에 도시된 바와 같이, 사용자가 세탁조에 세탁물을 투입하고, 자동 또는 수동설정으로 세탁을 진행하면, 세탁기에 내장된 마이컴(10)은 자동포량감지에 의해, 또는 수동설정에 의해 포량을 기억하게 되고, 또한 헹굼횟수가 자동설정(2회) 또는 수동설절(1 내지 n 회)으로 상기 마이컴에 기억되고, 마지막 헹굼행정까지 마이컴의 동작순서에 의해 타행정을 진행한 후, 마지막헹굼 급수직전에 상기 솔레노이드(310)의 작동시간과 횟수를 조절하여 상기 섬유유연제유출로(110)을 개폐하여 포량에 대응하는 적절한 량의 섬유유연제를 투입한다.First, as shown in FIG. 7, when a user puts laundry into a washing tank and proceeds to washing by automatic or manual setting, the microcomputer 10 built in the washing machine is detected by automatic quantity detection or by manual setting. The amount of rinsing is memorized, and the number of rinsing cycles is automatically stored in the microcomputer at the automatic setting (two times) or the manual tongue (1 to n times), and the other stroke is performed by the operation sequence of the microcomputer until the last rinsing stroke. Immediately before the rinse water supply, the operating time and the number of times of the solenoid 310 are adjusted to open and close the fabric softener outlet 110 to inject the appropriate amount of the fabric softener corresponding to the amount of fluid.

상기 섬유유연제유출로(110)의 개폐동작을 설명하면, 마이컴의 명령에 의해 솔레노이드(310)가 동작하여 개폐판(320)을 당기면, 개폐판(320)은 개폐판가이드 (340)을 따라 이동한 후, 개폐판(320)의 통공(321)이 섬유유연제유출로(110)와 연통되어 상기 유출로가 개방되는 위치에서 멈춤가이드(330)에 의해 정지되어, 상기 유출로(110)가 개방되어 있는 동안 섬유유연제통(100)의 섬유유연제(101)의 투입이 실시된다. 이때, 포량에 대응하는 적절한 량의 섬유유연제를 투입하기 위해, 마이컴은 상기 솔레노이드(310)의 작동시간과 횟수를 조절하게 된다.Referring to the opening and closing operation of the fabric softener outflow path 110, when the solenoid 310 is operated by the command of the microcomputer to pull the opening and closing plate 320, the opening and closing plate 320 is moved along the opening and closing plate guide 340. Then, the through hole 321 of the opening and closing plate 320 is in communication with the fiber softener outflow path 110 is stopped by the stop guide 330 at the position where the outflow path is opened, the outflow path 110 is opened. While the fiber softener container 100 is being fed, the softener 101 is introduced. At this time, in order to inject an appropriate amount of the fabric softener corresponding to the amount, the microcomputer adjusts the operation time and the number of times of the solenoid 310.

한편, 개폐판(320)과 섬유유연제유출로(110)간의 기밀은 섬유유연제통의 섬유유연제의 하중에 의해 유지되고, 급수시, 급수압에 의해 개폐판(320)이 섬유유연제유출로(110)로 방향으로 밀리어 유출로(110)로의 물의 침투가 방지된다.On the other hand, the airtightness between the opening and closing plate 320 and the fiber softener outflow path 110 is maintained by the load of the fiber softener in the fiber softener barrel. Penetration of the water into the millier outflow path 110 in the direction of?

한편, 섬유유연제통(100)의 섬유유연제량이 줄어들면, 부유부재(132)가 하강함에 따라 지시침(133)도 회전하여 투명판(121)를 통하여 섬유유연제의 보충시기를 알 수 있게 된다.On the other hand, when the amount of the fabric softener of the fabric softener cylinder 100 is reduced, as the floating member 132 is lowered, the indicator needle 133 is also rotated so that it is possible to know the replenishment time of the fabric softener through the transparent plate 121.

이상, 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따르면, 자동으로 섬유유연제의 유출로를 개폐함으로서, 섬유유연제의 투입시기와 투입량을 적절히 조절할 수 있다.As described above, according to the present invention, by automatically opening and closing the outflow passage of the fabric softener, it is possible to appropriately control the timing and amount of the input of the fabric softener.
