    摘要: A washing machine and a control method thereof in which a tub washing course is safely performed using a sensor (14) to measure vibration of a tub (11). Since whether or not laundry is present in a drum (12) is sensed while performing the tub washing course, consumption of separate time, water, and energy to sense whether or not laundry is present is not required, and operation of the washing machine is controlled by diagnosing malfunction of the sensor. If plural sensors are installed, a micro-computer is connected to the plural sensors in common through a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) communication method or an Inter Integrated circuit (I2C) communication method, thereby reducing costs and volume of wire-harness.

    摘要: A drum washing machine, and a control method and a control apparatus for same are provided. The control method for the drum washing machine comprises the following steps: step S101, acquiring an average starting power of a drum in a starting process of the drum; step S102, acquiring a load range to which a current load of the drum belongs according to the average starting power; and step S103, setting a weighing protection velocity fluctuation threshold according to the load range to which the current load of the drum belongs. A value of a current load is obtained by using a correspondence between load with different weights and average starting powers, and a weighing protection velocity fluctuation threshold is set according to the value of the current load so as to avoid the phenomena of collision with the drum and non-dehydration in a case of only one piece of clothing. The method completes computation in a starting stage, and can be implemented by only few modifications on the basis of the conventional solution without the need to add extra control logic, thereby being convenient and practical, and lowering the upgrade cost of a whole product.

    摘要: A washing machine which detects vibrations of the washing tub or chamber. The machine (M) includes a support structure (S), inside which there is suspended a washing chamber or tub (T) wherein there is rotatably mounted a basket (B) for clothes and the like, and a pressure transducing device (1), which includes a support casing (2, 3) connected to the washing chamber or tub (T), and connected to a pipe or hose (P) which extends inside this chamber or tub (T), and with which there are associated an electronic circuit (17) predisposed for processing signals generated by the transducer (1) to provide an indication of the level of the washing bath (WB) in the chamber or tub (T). An electronic accelerometer (30) secured to the support casing (2, 3) of the pressure transducing device (1) and associated with said electronic circuit means (17), generates electrical signals indicative of the amplitude of the vibrations of the washing chamber or tub (T).

    摘要: A control method of washing machine and a washing machine adopting the control method are provided. The washing machine includes a master control board, and an acceleration sensor (2) configured to detect vibration of an outer drum (1). At least in a high-speed dewatering phase, the master control board is configured to determine whether to perform load redistribution according to vibration data, detected by the acceleration sensor (2), regarding the outer drum (1), and issue an instruction. Since the washing machine determines whether to perform load redistribution according to vibration data, detected by the acceleration sensor (2), regarding the outer drum (1) in the high-speed dewatering phase, various uncontrolled vibrations and displacements can be restrained in advance, thereby increasing operational reliability of the washing machine, avoiding generating a collision of the drum and increasing washing efficiency and service life of the washing machine.
