Description

세탁기의 운전제어 방법{METHOD FOR CONTROLLING WASHING MACHINE}[0001] METHOD FOR CONTROLLING WASHING MACHINE [0002]

본 발명은 세탁기의 운전제어 방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 배수펌프를 사용하는 세탁기의 펌프필터의 이상유무를 세탁행정이 시작되기 전에 감지하여 경고메시지를 표시할 수 있도록 한 세탁기의 운전제어 방법에 관한 것이다.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling the operation of a washing machine. More particularly, the present invention relates to an operation control method of a washing machine for detecting an abnormality of a pump filter of a washing machine using a drain pump, .

일반적으로 전자동 세탁기는 빨래감의 종류 및 양에 따라 세탁, 헹굼, 탈수시간이 최적으로 조절될 수 있도록 몇 가지의 세탁코스를 구비하고 있다.Generally, the automatic washing machine has several washing courses so that the washing, rinsing, and dewatering time can be adjusted optimally according to the type and amount of the laundry.

일예를 들어 메리야스, 와이셔츠, 손수건 등 때가 심하지 않고 자주 빠는 세탁물은 '쾌속 세탁 코스'로 세탁할 수 있고, 두꺼운 담요, 커텐, 카페트, 등산용 침구, 시트 등과 같은 세탁물은 '담요 세탁 코스'로 세탁하며 고급스웨터, 가디간, 실크, 란제리, 스타킹 등과 같은 빨래감은 '순모 세탁 코스'로 세탁하며, 여러 가지 빨래감이 섞여 있는 일반 세탁물의 경우에는 '센서 세탁 코스'로 세탁을 하게되는 바 이 센서 세탁 코스는 전자동 세탁기가 내장한 각종 센서가 작동하여 세탁, 헹굼, 탈수시간 및 적정수위를 자동으로 설정하여 세탁을 하지만, 나머지 세탁 코스는 사용자가 빨래감에 따른 적정수위를 선택해 주어야 한다.For example, clothes washed frequently, such as mariasis, shirts, handkerchiefs, etc., can be washed in 'rapid washing course', and laundry such as thick blanket, curtain, carpet, mountaineering bedding, Washing items such as high-grade sweater, guard dog, silk, lingerie and stockings are washed with a 'pure washing course', and in the case of ordinary laundry having various laundry feelings, The automatic washing machine operates various sensors, and the washing, rinsing, dewatering time, and the appropriate level are automatically set to perform the washing, while the remaining washing courses require the user to select the appropriate level according to the laundry feeling.

이때, 세탁기의 탈수행정은 먼저 세탁물에 있는 물기를 배수하기 위하여 소정의 횟수와 시간으로 발란스 탈수를 행한 후 상기 발란스 탈수가 완료되면 본 탈수를 하고 이때, 만약 언발란스가 발생되면 즉, 안전스위치가 소정 횟수만큼 동작되면 재헹굼행정을 실시해야 한다.
At this time, in the dewatering process of the washing machine, balancing dewatering is performed in a predetermined number of times and for a predetermined time in order to drain the water in the laundry, and then dehydration is performed when the balancing dewatering is completed. At this time, if unbalance occurs, If it is operated a number of times, a re-rinse cycle should be performed.

위에서 설명한 기술은 본 발명이 속하는 기술분야의 배경기술을 의미하며, 종래기술을 의미하는 것은 아니다.
The above description refers to the background of the technical field to which the present invention belongs, and does not mean the prior art.

특히. 헹굼행정이나 탈수행정 이전에는 보통 배수처리를 해주게 되며 이러한 배수처리의 방법에는 여러 가지가 있으나 배수용 펌프를 사용하는 경우 배수용 펌프의 전측에는 배수필터가 구비되어 이물질을 필터링하게 된다.Especially. Before the rinse cycle or the dewatering process, the water is usually drained. There are various methods of the drainage process. However, when the drainage pump is used, a drainage filter is provided on the front side of the drainage pump to filter the foreign matter.

이때, 펌프필터가 이물질에 의해 막히게 되면 배수행정시 배수가 잘 안될 경우 펌프필터를 교환하라는 경고메시지를 표시함으로써 문제의 펌프필터를 교환하여 배수처리가 원활하게 이루어질 수 있도록 한다. At this time, if the pump filter is clogged by the foreign substance, if the drainage is not performed well, a warning message to replace the pump filter is displayed so that the problematic pump filter can be exchanged to smooth the drainage process.

그러나, 펌프필터의 경고메시지가 표시될 경우 펌프필터를 청소하면 전원을 온오프하여 처음부터 다시 시작하거나 진행된 과정을 판단하여 세탁코스를 다시 설정해야되기 때문에 시간 및 에너지를 낭비하는 문제점이 있다. However, when the warning message of the pump filter is displayed, cleaning the pump filter causes the power supply to be turned on and off, restarting from the beginning, or determining the progress of the pump filter and resetting the washing course, thereby wasting time and energy.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 개선하기 위해 창작된 것으로서, 본 발명은 배수펌프를 사용하는 세탁기의 펌프필터의 이상유무를 세탁행정이 시작되기 전에 감지하여 경고메시지를 표시할 수 있도록 한 세탁기의 운전제어 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a washing machine which can detect the abnormality of a pump filter of a washing machine using a drain pump before a washing cycle starts, And a control method.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of controlling an operation of a washing machine, including: advancing a water supply to a set water level; Determining an abnormality of the pump filter while the set time is being multiplied when the set water level is reached; And outputting a warning message of the pump filter when an abnormality occurs in the pump filter as a result of the determination, and proceeding to the normal stroke by proceeding to refill the water when the abnormality does not occur in the pump filter.

본 발명에서 급수를 진행하는 단계는 세탁행정인 것을 특징으로 한다.

도 1에 도시된 바와 같이 사용자에 의해 각종 세탁정보가 입력되는 운전신호 입력부(1)와, 세탁조의 수위를 감지하는 수위감지부(2)로부터 소정의 입력신호를 인가받아 세탁행정, 헹굼행정, 탈수행정 및 배수처리를 소정의 프로그램에 의해 제어하는 제어부(3)와, 제어부(3)에서 출력되는 제어신호를 받아 회전하면서 세, 헹굼 및 탈수 구동하는 모터구동부(4)와, 배수처리시 배수되는 물을 외부로 배출하는 배수펌프(5)와, 제어부(3)의 제어상태 및 배수처리시 이물질에 의해 배수펌프의 펌프필터가 막혀 에러가 발생했을 때 이러한 사실을 표시하여 사용자에게 경고메시지를 표시하는 표시부(6)를 포함한다.
As shown in FIG. 1, the washing machine includes a driving signal input unit 1 through which various types of washing information are inputted by a user, a water level sensing unit 2 for sensing the level of the washing tub, (3) for controlling the dewatering and drainage processing by a predetermined program, a motor driving unit (4) for rotating the dewatering unit in accordance with a control signal outputted from the control unit (3) A drainage pump 5 for discharging water to the outside, and a pump filter of the drainage pump being blocked by foreign substances in the control state of the control unit 3 and the drainage process, And a display unit 6 for displaying the image.

도 2는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 세탁기의 운전제어 방법을 설명하기 위한 흐름도이다. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of controlling an operation of a washing machine according to an embodiment of the present invention.

도 2에 도시된 바와 같이 먼저 세탁행정을 진행하면서 설정수위까지 급수를 진행한다(S10)(S12). As shown in FIG. 2, the water supply is progressed to the set water level while proceeding with the washing operation (S10) (S12).

수위감지부(2)로부터 세탁조에 급수된 수위가 설정수위에 도달한 경우 펌프필터의 이상유무를 판단하기 위해 배수처리를 설정시간 동안 진행한다(S14~S18). When the water level supplied to the washing tub reaches the set water level from the water level sensing unit 2, the water drainage process is performed for the set time period to determine the abnormality of the pump filter (S14 to S18).

이렇게 배수처리를 진행하면서 펌프필터의 이상유무를 판단한다(S16). The drainage process is performed to determine whether or not the pump filter is abnormal (S16).

After the set time has elapsed (S18), the drainage process is stopped and if there is an abnormality in the pump filter in accordance with the abnormality of the pump filter (S20), a warning message indicating the abnormality of the pump filter is displayed on the display unit 6 ).

그러나 펌프필터에 이상이 발생하지 않은 경우 재급수를 진행하여 정상적인 세탁행정을 진행한다(S22). However, if there is no abnormality in the pump filter, the refeeding is continued to proceed the normal washing cycle (S22).

이와 같이 세탁행정이 종료된 후 배수처리시 판단할 수 있는 펌프필터의 이상유무를 세탁초기에 급수시 설정시간동안 배수처리를 진행하여 펌프필터의 이상유무를 판단하여 경고메시지를 표시함으로써 펌프필터의 청소이후 반복되는 시간 및 에너지를 줄일 수 있다.
After the completion of the washing cycle, whether or not there is an abnormality in the pump filter which can be determined at the time of the washing process is determined by determining whether the pump filter is abnormal or not, It is possible to reduce the time and energy that is repeated after cleaning.
