In the clear water rinse cycle, the above-mentioned action of CPU61 by operation control section 6, washings in the cylinder 3 are immersed in aperture 32 via perisporium and flow in the rinsing water in the cylinder 3, follow the rotation of cylinder 3, washings falls after utilizing the effect of described baffle plate 33 to be held up again, and is stirred with rinsing water.Thus, remaining in dirty and detergent ingredients on the washings A is dissolved in the rinsing water and is removed.
Washing machine of the present invention provided steam and cylinder 3 is rotated before above-mentioned clear water rinse cycle, thus the steam rinsing that steam is contacted with the washings A of cylinder 3 inside.As mentioned above, because the steam that contact with washings A makes the dirty composition that remains on the washings A softening, and the dissolving detergent composition is removed it easily, thereby can realize the purpose that rinsing is turned round at short notice reliably, that is, remove dirty and detergent ingredients.
Usually, repeated multiple times is carried out the clear water rinse cycle, but because washing machine of the present invention is by carrying out the steam rinsing, promoted to remove dirty and detergent ingredients, so can reduce the number of times that carries out the clear water rinse cycle repeatedly, the number of times that for example makes the clear water rinsing reduces to once from twice, thereby can reduce whole rinsing running required time.
Order of carrying out the steam rinsing shown in Figure 5 and number of times are not limited to the mode of flow chart shown in Figure 5, can also carry out in other suitable mode.For example, can carry out a clear water rinsing at first, carry out the steam rinsing then, carry out the rinsing of one or many clear water at last, in addition, repeatedly steam rinsing and repeatedly clear water rinsing can also hocket.
In addition, also can in the clear water rinse cycle, continue to provide steam to the inside of cylinder 3.Because the steam that provides like this heats washings A, and play the effect that sink 2 interior rinsing waters are heated up, so can further promote to remove the dirty and detergent ingredients that remains on the washings A.
In aforesaid washing machine of the present invention, owing to the washings in the cylinder is being carried out in the rinsing operation process of rinsing, inside to cylinder provides steam, so can utilize being used for dissolving on the washings in the cylinder of steam residual dirty and detergent ingredients and they are removed easily, thereby can shorten rinsing running required time, and will comprise the washing machine approximately shortening 25% duration of runs of rinsing running.
In addition, the embodiment of narrating in the above-mentioned explanation only is used for clearly representing technology contents of the present invention, should not be construed to narrow sense the present invention and only be defined in above-mentioned object lesson, can in the scope of thought of the present invention and claim, implement the present invention with various modes of texturing.
