Definitions
- the present invention relates to an operating method of a laundry washing machine and to a laundry washing machine implementing such method.
- the present invention relates to an operating method of a rotary-drum laundry washing machine and to a rotary-drum laundry washing machine implementing such method.
- laundry washing machine may indicate as well a “simple” washing machine, i.e. a washing machine which is adapted only for washing the laundry, and also a washer/drier, i.e. a laundry machine which may wash and also dry the laundry.
- front-loading laundry washing machines generally comprise:
- the laundry when loaded inside the drum of a front-loading washing machine, the laundry accumulates on the bottom of the cylindrical lateral wall of the rotatable drum, and is subsequently distributed dynamically and randomly over the whole cylindrical lateral wall of the rotatable drum during all the stages of the washing cycle in which the drum rotates about its longitudinal axis, with the exception of the spin stage, in which the extremely fast rotating speed of the rotatable drum stabilizes and freezes distribution of the laundry on the lateral wall of the drum.
- the electronic control unit of the washing machine is generally programmed to determine, at beginning of the spin stage, the unbalanced component of the weight of the laundry stored inside the rotatable drum, and to command the motor assembly so as to carry out a predetermined control strategy for the rotating speed of the drum; this control strategy attempts to evenly distribute the laundry inside the rotatable drum to minimize the unbalanced component of the weight of the laundry inside the drum, so as to minimize mechanical vibration transmitted to the casing and consequently reduce the noise level at spin stage.
- the weight distribution of the laundry stored inside the rotatable drum when the distribution of this laundry on the lateral wall of the drum is frozen, due to the high rotating speed can be schematically represented as a combination of a balanced mass and an unbalanced mass, both located inside the rotatable drum.
- the balanced mass is evenly distributed on the cylindrical lateral wall of the drum and does not cause mechanical vibrations; whereas the unbalanced mass is concentrated in a specific point on the cylindrical lateral wall of the rotatable drum, and causes all mechanical vibrations of the rotatable drum and washing tub.
- a spin-launch stage i.e. a stage in which the electronic control unit of the washing machine determines firstly the weight of the unbalanced mass (i.e. the unbalanced component of the weight of the laundry inside the drum), and afterward, if such weight exceeds a given threshold value, it commands the motor assembly so that the angular speed of the rotatable drum follows a predetermined speed-time weight-reallocating path which is specifically designed to better distribute the laundry on the cylindrical lateral wall of the rotatable drum.
- the electronic control unit of the washing machine determines firstly the weight of the unbalanced mass (i.e. the unbalanced component of the weight of the laundry inside the drum), and afterward, if such weight exceeds a given threshold value, it commands the motor assembly so that the angular speed of the rotatable drum follows a predetermined speed-time weight-reallocating path which is specifically designed to better distribute the laundry on the cylindrical lateral wall of the rotatable drum.
- This speed-time weight-reallocating path comprises, for example, stopping the rotation of the drum for a certain time interval and/or reversing the rotation of the drum and/or reducing the rotating speed, etc., so that the laundry may detach from the lateral wall of the drum and change its spatial distribution.
- the electronic control unit of the washing machine checks again the unbalanced component of the weight of the laundry stored inside the rotatable drum (i.e. determines again the weight of the unbalanced mass) and, if the unbalanced component of the laundry weight still exceeds said threshold value, it may decide to repeat again the speed-time weight-reallocating path, or to abort the spin stage, or to perform the spin stage at a maximum angular speed which is lower than that of the nominal angular speed preset for the selected washing cycle.
- the profile of the speed-time weight-reallocating path used for reallocating the laundry inside the drum, the maximum number of attempts for optimizing the distribution of the laundry on the cylindrical lateral wall of the drum, the physical parameters and thresholds values taken into consideration in the decision, and the decision-making logic upon which the control unit decides to abort or reduce the spin stage, depend on the specific "spin-launch algorithm" stored in the control unit of the laundry washing machine; in other words the spin-launch stage of the spin stage depends on the specific "spin-launch algorithm" stored in the control unit of the laundry washing machine.
- WO 2006/052106 A1 discloses a washing machine comprising: a control panel for selecting a wash cycle; a sensor for sensing a load of laundry inside a drum during an operation of the wash cycle selected through the control panel; and a control unit for conducting the wash cycle selected through the control panel and controlling an rpm speed of the drum according to the sensed load of laundry sensed by the sensor, for untangling the laundry.
- Aim of the present invention is to provide a rotary-drum laundry washing machine operating method which can significantly improve the percentage of washing cycles which ends with a standard spin cycle (i.e. a spin cycle which is performed at the nominal angular speed which is preset for the selected washing cycle).

- Each spin-launch algorithm comprises a specific logic procedure (different from the ones of the other spin-launch algorithms stored in the memory module) according to which the washing machine operates during the spin-launch stage present at the beginning of the spin stage, in order to try to minimize an unbalanced mass present in the rotatable drum 6, so as to allow performing the rest of the spin stage, preferably at a nominal angular speed preset for the selected washing cycle.
- two distinct spin-launch algorithms may be different one another for the whole, or only for a certain part of, the logic procedure they apply to control the functioning of the laundry washing machine during the spin-launch stage.
- Each spin-launch algorithm stored in the memory module is preferably, though not necessarily, provided with one or more specific speed-time paths of the angular speed of drum, specifically designed to detach the laundry from the cylindrical lateral wall of rotatable drum 6; in other words each spin-launch algorithm stored in the memory module is preferably, though not necessarily, provided with at least one specific procedure according to which the rotation speed of drum is modified in order to detach the laundry from the cylindrical lateral wall of rotatable drum 6.

- a spin-launch algorithm comprises a series of well-defined instructions for completing the task of minimizing the unbalanced mass; these instructions comprise a series of operations (e.g. reversing or stopping the rotation of the rotatable drum, measuring the unbalanced mass, starting the spin at a prefixed speed, etc.) to be performed by the washing machine or not, according to the fact that some conditions are verified or not (e.g. the fact that the measured unbalanced mass, at a certain moment of the spin-launch stage, is lower than a prefixed value, or the fact that a certain number of repetitions of a specific operation has been reached, etc).
- a series of operations e.g. reversing or stopping the rotation of the rotatable drum, measuring the unbalanced mass, starting the spin at a prefixed speed, etc.
