- This structure is equally applicable to the second wash liquid duct.
- FIG 13 shows a first embodiment of the hydraulic system of the washing machine.
- fresh water is supplied to the system by introducing it into the detergent compartment and leading it through a water supply hose 52 in the wash tub 2, and from there through the transfer duct 53 to the wash water reservoir 30 until there is enough water in wash tub 2 and the wash water reservoir 30 is full, after which the fresh water supply to the detergent compartment 10 is closed and the three-way valve 55 arranged in the outlet of wash tub 2 is closed.
- the three-way valve 55 When, after a wash cycle, it is necessary required to partially or completely evacuate the dirty wash liquid from tub 2, the three-way valve 55 is opened so that the dirty wash liquid can flow through the second wash water duct 42 to the drain hose 49, and the second pump 41 is operated to pump the dirty wash liquid through the discharge hose 51 to evacuate through the drain (not shown in the figures) of the washing machine 1, and the three-way valve 55 is closed.
- the first pump 40 When, after the evacuation of the wash liquid, continuing with a new wash cycle that requires the addition of wash water, the first pump 40 is operated to pump wash water from the wash water reservoir 30 through the wash water outlet hose 48, the first wash liquid duct 42 and the first hose 50 to the detergent compartment 10, from where it passes through the water supply hose 52 to the wash tub 2. After the wash tub 2 has been evacuated after a wash cycle, this can be done when all the wash water has been used, or only a portion thereof.
- this used wash water can be transferred to the wash water reservoir 30 by closing the access to the drain hose 49 by means of valve 55 and opening access to the transfer hose 53, such that the used wash water is transferred into the wash water reservoir 30 and, from there, by operating the first pump 40, can be brought through the wash water outlet hose 48, the first wash liquid duct 42 and the resupply hose 50 to the detergent compartment 10, from where it is recirculated, optionally being mixed with more fresh water and/or more detergent, to wash tub 2 via water supply hose 52.
- the tub 2, the wash water reservoir 30, the first pump 40, and the wash liquid duct 42 are part of a wash liquid recirculation circuit.
- the second embodiment of the hydraulic system of the washing machine shown in Figure 14 differs from the first embodiment illustrated in Figure 13 in that the wash tub 2 is not in hydraulic communication with the wash water reservoir 30 such that the valve 55 arranged at the outlet of the wash tub 2 is only two-way.
- the two-way valve 55 is opened so that the dirty wash liquid can flow through the second wash water duct 42 to the drain hose 49, and the second pump 41 is operated to pump the dirty wash liquid through the discharge hose 51 to evacuate through the drain (not shown in the figures) of the washing machine 1, and the two-way valve 55 is closed.
- fresh water can be supplied to the system by introducing it into the detergent compartment and leading it through the water supply hose 52 into the wash tub 2, and/or the wash water reservoir 30.
- the first pump 40 is operated to pump wash water from the wash water reservoir 30 through the wash water outlet hose 48, the first wash liquid duct 42 and the first hose 50 to the detergent compartment 10, from where it passes through the water supply hose 52 to the wash tub 2.
