Filter) and a water supply valve 17 for supplying wash water.

At this time, the washing outer tub 12 and the washing inner tub 13 form a washing tub and rotate directly or indirectly by the motor together with the pulsator 15. In addition, a pumping channel 14 may be formed between the washing outer tub 12 and the washing inner tub 13 to wash and circulate the washing water.

In addition, the lint filter 16 is for collecting lint generated during the washing stroke, and attached to a predetermined position of the washing tank formed of the washing outer tub 12 and the washing inner tub 13 through the pumping channel 14. Lint is collected on the lint filter 16 as the wash water is pumped.

In addition, the washing water is supplied by the water level set through the water supply number 17 when the washing administration is performed.

1 is a view showing a first mode in a washing method of a washing machine according to the prior art, the washing method of the washing machine according to the prior art configured as described above with reference to this as follows.

First, the user inputs a laundry cloth and detergent into the washing tank and receives washing water from the water supply valve 17 by the set water level when the washing stroke of the washing machine is started through the user's key input.

Then, the washing operation is performed by the left and right stirring control of the pulsator 15 by the motor, that is, the first mode of the washing method.

In this case, in the first mode, the pulsator 15 is rotated for a first set time T1 at a first set speed V1 or V1 'to perform left and right stirring.

In detail, the left and right stirring control of the pulsator 15 according to the first mode rotates the pulsator 15 clockwise for a preset time T1 at a preset speed V1. The rotation of the pulsator 15 is stopped for a preset time.

Subsequently, the pulsator 15 is rotated counterclockwise for the set time T1 at the set speed V1 ', and then the rotation of the pulsator 15 is stopped for a preset time.

The pulsator 15 rotating by the first mode has a rotation cycle as shown in FIG. 2 and the left and right stirring controls of the pulsator 15 are controlled by the first mode during the washing time set by the user. It is performed repeatedly.

At this time, the set speeds V1 and V1 'are the same and the left and right stirring control of the pulsator 15 in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction is performed at the same speed.

Subsequently, when the left and right stirring of the pulsator 15, washing water rises to the pumping channel 14 by rotation of a pumping vane (not shown) configured at the lower end of the pulsator 15.

Washing water raised to the pumping channel 14 passes through the lint filter 16 and collects lint generated from the laundry cloth, and circulates the washing water through the pumping channel 14 to dissolve the detergent.

In addition, washing is performed by mechanical friction between the pulsator 15 and the laundry cloth due to the stirring operation of the pulsator 15.

Therefore, in the related art, the stirring control of the pulsator 15 is performed by the first mode having the same set speed and set time, thereby performing the washing operation.

The washing method of the washing machine according to the related art described above performs the stirring control of the pulsator by the same setting speed and setting time during the preset washing time, so that the time required for dissolving detergent is insufficient and the lint generated during washing is insufficient. There was a problem in reducing the performance of the laundry.

In order to solve the above problems of the prior art, an object of the present invention is to provide a washing method of the washing machine to improve the washing performance in the washing administration of the washing machine.

Washing method of the washing machine according to the present invention for achieving the above object is a washing machine having a washing tank and a pulsator, the first rotating speed of the pulsator at a first set speed (V1) for a first set time (T1) A first mode, a second mode in which the washing tank and the pulsator are rotated for a second set time T2 at a first set speed V2 to increase the washing water penetration rate, and the pulsator at a third set speed V3. To rotate the washing tank and the pulsator during the fourth setting time T4 at a third mode for increasing detergent dissolution rate by rotating the third time for setting T3 and at a fourth setting speed V4 to increase washing uniformity. The washing operation is controlled by combining the fourth mode.

Hereinafter, the washing method of the washing machine according to the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Here, since the configuration of the washing machine is the same as described above, the description of the configuration is omitted.

3 is a view showing a second mode in the washing method of the washing machine according to the present invention, Figure 5 is a view showing a third mode in the washing method of the washing machine according to the present invention, Figure 8 is a washing machine according to the present invention As a diagram showing a fourth mode in a washing method, a washing method of a washing machine according to the present invention will be described with reference to the following.

First, the user puts a laundry cloth and detergent into the washing tank (laundry tank 12 / washing tank 13) and when the washing stroke of the washing machine is started through the user's key input, the washing water is supplied to the predetermined level. Supply through the valve (17).

Subsequently, when the washing water is supplied to the washing tank, the washing machine and the pulsator 15 perform left and right stirring by the first mode, the second mode, the third mode, and the fourth mode, and the pulsator 15 Washing water rises to the pumping channel 14 by rotation of a pumping vane (not shown) configured at the bottom of the pump.

Washing water raised to the pumping channel 14 passes through the lint filter 16 and collects lint generated from the laundry cloth, and circulates the washing water through the pumping channel 14 to dissolve the detergent.

In addition, washing is performed by mechanical friction between the pulsator 15 and the laundry cloth due to the stirring operation of the pulsator 15.

At this time, the washing administration in the present invention is performed by the first mode, the second mode, the third mode and the fourth mode. Here, the control sequence of the washing operation according to the first, second, third and fourth modes is first controlled by the second mode and then controlled by the third mode, followed by a first combination After the control by the mode and the fourth mode, the control by the third mode again.

In this case, the combination of the first mode and the fourth mode may be controlled by combining the first mode and the fourth mode at a predetermined ratio, and may be controlled by alternately combining the first mode and the fourth mode.

The first mode, the second mode, the third mode, and the fourth mode will be described in more detail as follows.

First, in the first mode, the pulsator 15 is rotated for a first set time T1 at a first set speed V1 or V1 'to perform left and right stirring.

Here, since the first mode is the same as the control by the conventional first mode described above, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Next, in the second mode, the pulsator 15 is washed with the water supply through the water supply valve 17 at the second set speed (V2 or V2 '). At the same time as)), it rotates for the second set time T2 and performs left and right stirring.

In detail, as shown in FIG. 3, the left and right stirring control by the second mode simultaneously watches the pulsator 15 and the washing tank during the second set time T2 at the second set speed V2. After rotating in the direction, the rotation of the pulsator 15 and the washing tank is stopped for a predetermined time.

Subsequently, the pulsator 15 and the washing tank are rotated counterclockwise at the same time for the set time T2 at the set speed V2 ', and then the rotation of the pulsator 15 and the washing tank is stopped for a predetermined time. do.

At this time, in the second mode, the second set speed V2 or V2 'is lower than the first set speed V1 or V1' and is low enough that no centrifugal force is applied to the laundry cloth. The second set time T2 is the same as the first set time T1.

Therefore, the washing stroke in the second mode has a rotation cycle as shown in FIG. 4 and the washing stroke in the second mode rotates at a low speed in the same rotational direction and rotational speed as the laundry cloth integrally with the water supply valve ( 17) is driven to perform water supply to uniformly infiltrate the wash water into the wash cloth. In addition, there is no washing water circulated through the pumping channel 14 during the washing operation in the second mode.

Next, in the third mode, the pulsator 15 is rotated for a third set time T3 at a third set speed V3 or V3 'to perform left and right stirring.

In detail, as shown in FIG. 5, the left and right stirring control by the third mode rotates the pulsator 15 in a clockwise direction for a preset time T3 at a preset speed V3. The rotation of the pulsator 15 is stopped for a preset time.

Subsequently, the pulsator 15 is rotated counterclockwise for the set time T3 at the set speed V3 'and the rotation of the pulsator 15 is stopped for a preset time.

6 to 7, the pulsator 15 may be operated at the third set speed V3 or V3 ′ which is greater than the first set speed V1 or V1 ′. The first set time controlled during the third set time T3 equal to the first set time T1 or at the third set speed V3 or V3 'equal to the first set speed V1 or V1'. The third set speed V3 or V3 ', which is controlled for the third set time T3 longer than T1 or greater than the first set speed V1 or V1', is greater than the first set time T1. It may be controlled during the long third set time T3.

In other words, in the present invention, the setting speed and setting time of the third mode can be controlled by the following setting conditions 1), 2) or 3).

1) V3> V1, T3 = T1 (shown in FIG. 6)

2) V3 = V1, T3> T1 (shown in FIG. 7)

3) V3> V1, T3> T1

(V1: first set speed, V3: third set speed, T1: first set time T3: third set time)

Therefore, the third set speed V3 is greater than the first set speed V1 or the third set time T3 is longer than the first set time T1 when washing in the third mode. Since the centrifugal force is added to the laundry cloth and the wash water as compared to the first mode, the water surface of the wash water is parabolic as shown. That is, during the washing stroke in the third mode, the washing water circulated through the pumping channel 14 increases due to the greater centrifugal force than the first mode.

Finally, in the fourth mode, the pulsator 15 and the washing tank are rotated for the fourth set time T4 at the fourth set speed V4 or V4 'to perform left and right stirring.

In detail, as shown in FIG. 8, the left and right stirring control by the fourth mode simultaneously watches the pulsator 15 and the washing tank for the fourth set time T4 at the fourth set speed V4. After rotating in the direction, the rotation of the pulsator 15 and the washing tank is stopped for a predetermined time.

Subsequently, the pulsator 15 and the washing tub are simultaneously rotated counterclockwise at the same time during the set time T4 at the set speed V4 'and the rotation of the pulsator 15 is stopped for a preset time.

At this time, in the fourth mode, the fourth set speed V4 or V4 'is smaller than the first set speed V1 or V1' and greater than the second set time V2 or V2 '. The fourth set time T4 is the same as the first set time T1.

That is, it has a rotation cycle as shown in FIG. 9 and the washing cloth is separated from the pulsator 15 and the washing tank during the washing stroke in the fourth mode. At this time, the washing water circulated through the pumping channel 14 is very small compared to the first mode or the third mode.

Therefore, when the washing operation is performed by the fourth mode, the pulsator 15 and the washing tank are simultaneously left and right stirred, and the fourth set speed V4 is smaller than the first set speed V1 and the second set speed. By making it larger than V2, the friction force is uniformly transmitted to the cleaning cloth which is hard to transmit the mechanical friction force of the pulsator 15, and washing is performed.

As described above, the first set speeds V1 and V1 'have the same magnitude, and the second set speeds V2 and V2' have the same magnitude. Further, the third set speeds V3 and V3 'are the same size, and the fourth set speeds V4 and V4' are the same size.

Accordingly, in the present invention, the washing operation is performed by combining the first, second, third and fourth modes having different setting speeds or setting times, thereby making the second mode having a smaller setting time than the first mode. Washing water circulated through the pumping channel 14 due to control by the third mode having a set speed or time greater than the first mode and quickly penetrates the wash water into the laundry cloth Increase detergent dissolution rate and improve lint collection.

Further, uniform washing of the laundry cloth is performed due to the control by the fourth mode having a set speed smaller than the first mode and larger than the second mode.

Washing method of the washing machine according to the present invention described above by performing a washing administration by combining the first mode, the second mode, the third mode and the fourth mode controlled by different washing speed or washing time during the washing stroke. Washing performance can be improved.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

Therefore, the technical scope of the present invention should not be limited to the contents described in the embodiments, but should be defined by the claims.
