본 발명은 세탁기의 제어방법에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 세탁물을 거품세탁할 수 있도록 거품발생장치를 갖춘 세탁기의 제어방법에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a control method of a washing machine, and more particularly, to a control method of a washing machine equipped with a bubble generating device so as to launder laundry.

일반적으로 세탁기는 세탁수를 담는 수조와, 수조 내에 회전가능하게 설치되며 내부에 세탁물이 투입되는 회전조를 포함한 것으로, 회전조가 회전함에 따라 내부의 세탁물이 회전조와 함께 회전하면서 세탁이 이루어지도록 한 장치이다. In general, a washing machine includes a water tank containing washing water and a rotating water tank rotatably installed in the water tank, in which laundry is put therein. As the rotating water tank rotates, the laundry inside the washing machine rotates together with the rotating water tank to perform washing. to be.

근래 이러한 세탁기 중에는 거품을 발생시키는 거품발생장치를 설치하여 거품발생장치에서 발생한 거품이 세탁물 간의 마찰을 저감시키는 쿠션의 역할을 하도록 함으로써 세탁물 간의 마찰에 의한 세탁물 손상을 저감할 수 있도록 한 세탁기가 있다. Recently, there is a washing machine in which a bubble generating device for generating a bubble is installed so that the foam generated in the bubble generating device serves as a cushion to reduce friction between laundry, thereby reducing laundry damage caused by friction between laundry.

그런데 이러한 종래의 세탁기는 세탁물을 거품발생장치가 동작하여 거품세탁모드가 수행될 경우에 수조에 공급되는 세탁수량은 일반적인 세탁을 수행하는 일반세탁모드일 경우와 동일하게 공급되도록 되어 있다. By the way, such a conventional washing machine is to be supplied in the same manner as in the case of the general washing mode to perform the laundry when the foam washing apparatus is operated to perform the laundry in the foam washing mode.

따라서, 종래의 세탁기는 세탁수의 세제농도는 거품세탁모드일 경우에도 일반세탁모드일 경우와 동일하도록 되어 있으므로 거품발생장치에서 발생한 거품이 쉽게 터져 사라지게 되어 세탁물을 거품세탁하는데 필요한 양의 거품을 유지하기 어려우며, 거품이 잘 터지지 않도록 하기 위하여 세제의 공급량을 늘려 세탁수의 세제농도를 높게 할 경우, 거품은 용이하게 발생할 수 있으나 세탁수량이 많아 거품의 양이 적정수준 이상으로 발생할 수 있다는 문제점이 있다. Therefore, in the conventional washing machine, since the detergent concentration of the washing water is the same as in the general washing mode even in the washing mode of the washing water, the foam generated by the foaming device is easily broken and disappears to maintain the amount of foam required for washing the laundry. It is difficult to do this, and if the detergent concentration of the washing water is increased by increasing the supply of detergent to prevent the bubbles from popping well, foam may easily occur, but there is a problem that the amount of the foam may occur at an appropriate level or more due to the large amount of washing water. .

본 발명은 이와 같은 문제점들을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 본 발명의 목적은 거품세탁모드 시 적정량의 거품을 발생시킬 수 있도록 하기 위한 세탁기의 제어방법을 제공하는 것이다.The present invention is to solve such problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a control method of the washing machine for generating an appropriate amount of foam in the foam washing mode.

또한, 상기의 일반세탁모드에 상응하도록 설정된 세탁수량(C)을 수조(11)에 공급하는 과정은, 급수밸브(18d)를 제어하여 수조(11)에 세탁수를 급수하는 과정(260)과, 수조(11)에 담긴 세탁수의 수위를 측정하여 수조(11)에 담긴 세탁수량(A)을 검출하는 과정(270)과, 검출된 수조(11)의 세탁수량(A)과 일반세탁모드 시의 세탁수량(C)이 일치하는 지를 판단하는 과정(280)과, 검출된 수조(11)의 세탁수량(A)과 일반세탁모드 시의 세탁수량(C)과 일치할 경우에 급수를 종료하는 과정(290)을 포함한다. In addition, the process of supplying the washing water amount (C) set to correspond to the general washing mode to the water tank 11, the process (260) for supplying the washing water to the water tank 11 by controlling the water supply valve (18d) and The process of detecting the washing water amount (A) contained in the water tank 11 by measuring the water level of the washing water contained in the water tank 11 (270), the washing water amount (A) and the general washing mode of the detected water tank 11 The process of determining whether the washing water amount (C) at the time coincides with the process 280, and the water supply is terminated when the washing water amount (A) of the detected water tank (11) and the washing water amount (C) at the general washing mode are matched. Process 290.

이때, 제어부(100)는 거품세탁모드 시에 수조(11)에 공급되는 세탁수량(B)이 일반세탁모드 시에 수조(11)에 공급되는 세탁수량(C)에 비하여 상대적으로 적게 공 급되도록 급수밸브(18d)를 제어하여 일반세탁모드 시에 비하여 세탁수의 세제농도가 높게 형성되도록 하는데, 이와 같이 거품세탁모드 시의 세탁수량(B)을 일반세탁모드 시에 공급되는 세탁수량(C)에 비해 적게 하여 세탁수의 세제농도가 높게 형성되도록 하면 거품발생장치(20)에서 발생한 거품은 잘 터지지 않으면서도, 상대적으로 적은 양의 세탁수가 거품세탁모드 시에 수조(11)에 공급되어 있는 상태이므로 발생하는 거품의 양은 적정 수준으로 유지된다. At this time, the control unit 100 so that the washing water amount (B) supplied to the water tank 11 in the bubble washing mode is supplied relatively less than the washing water amount (C) supplied to the water tank 11 in the general washing mode. The water supply valve 18d is controlled so that the detergent concentration of the wash water is higher than that in the normal washing mode. Thus, the washing water amount (C) supplied in the normal washing mode is the amount of washing water (B) in the foam washing mode. When the detergent concentration of the washing water is set to be smaller than that of the washing water, the foam generated by the foam generator 20 does not burst well, and a relatively small amount of washing water is supplied to the water tank 11 in the foam washing mode. Therefore, the amount of bubbles generated is maintained at an appropriate level.

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 세탁기는 거품세탁모드 시 공급되는 세탁수량이 일반세탁모드 시 공급되는 세탁수량과 다르게 되어 있으므로, 거품세탁 시에 필요한 적정량의 거품을 용이하게 확보할 수 있게 되는 작용효과가 있다.As described above in detail, in the washing machine according to the present invention, since the washing amount supplied in the washing mode is different from the washing amount supplied in the washing mode, it is possible to easily secure the appropriate amount of foam required for washing the foam. There is a working effect.
