세탁기의 세탁수 순환장치 { a washer }Washing water circulator in the washing machine {a washer}

본 발명은 세탁기의 세탁수 순환장치에 관한 것으로서, 특히 탈수조 저면의 세탁수를 세라믹과 반응시켜 세탁조 및 탈수조의 상측으로 공급하는 세탁기의 세탁수 순환장치에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a washing water circulation system for a washing machine, and more particularly, to a washing water circulation system for a washing machine for supplying washing water on a bottom surface of a dehydration tank with ceramic to supply the upper side of the washing tank and the dehydration tank.

일반적으로 세탁기는 전기를 이용하여 기계적인 작용을 제공하여 의류에 묻은 때 등을 제거하는 기계로서, 의류에 묻은 때는 세탁수 속에 넣으면 세제의 화학작용에 의해 섬유에서 떨어지게 되나 세제만의 작용으로는 오랜 시간이 걸리기 때문에 수류를 강제 발생시켜 마찰이나 진동 등의 기계적인 작용을 가하면 때를 손쉽게 빨리 뺄 수 있게 된다.In general, a washing machine is a machine that removes stains on clothes by providing mechanical action using electricity.When it is put on clothes, it is removed from the fibers by the chemical action of detergent when it is put in the wash water. Because it takes time, if the water flow is forcibly generated and mechanical action such as friction or vibration can be removed quickly and easily.

특히, 세탁기의 세탁능력은 세탁물에 가해지는 기계적인 작용력과, 세탁수의 성질 및 온도와, 오염원에 의해 좌우된다.In particular, the washing ability of the washing machine depends on the mechanical action applied to the laundry, the nature and temperature of the washing water, and the source of contamination.

도 1은 종래 기술에 따른 세탁기가 도시된 구성도이다.1 is a block diagram showing a washing machine according to the prior art.

종래의 세탁기는 도 1에 도시된 바와 같이 외곽을 형성하는 케이스(2)와, 상기 케이스(2) 내부에 위치되어 세탁물의 세정이 이루어지는 세탁조(4) 및 탈수조(6)와, 상기 세탁조(4)의 저면에 회전 가능하게 설치되어 세탁수에 회전 수류를 형성하는 세탁날개(8)와, 상기 탈수조(6)를 상기 케이스(2)에 매달리게 지지하는 동시에 댐퍼 기능을 수행하는 네 개의 걸이부재(10a) 및 댐퍼(10b)와, 상기 탈수조(6)의 하부에 설치되어 상기 세탁조(4) 및 세탁날개(8)를 선택적으로 회전 구동시키는 클러치(12) 및 구동 모터(14)로 구성된다.Conventional washing machines include a case (2) forming an outline as shown in FIG. 1, a washing tank (4) and a dehydration tank (6), which are located inside the case (2), for washing laundry, and the washing tank ( 4) a washing wing (8) rotatably installed on the bottom of 4) to support the dehydration tank (6) suspended from the casing (2) and a damper function to support the dehydration tank (6). A member 12a and a damper 10b and a clutch 12 and a drive motor 14 installed under the dewatering tank 6 to selectively rotate the washing tank 4 and the washing blade 8 with rotation. It is composed.

그리고, 상기 케이스(2)의 상단측 전방에는 세탁기의 동작을 조작할 수 있는 제어부(16)가 설치되고, 상기 제어부(16)의 후방에는 세탁물의 이탈을 방지하고 안전사고를 예방할 수 있도록 뚜껑(18)이 설치된다.In addition, a control unit 16 capable of operating the operation of the washing machine is installed at the front side of the upper side of the case 2, and a lid (behind the control unit 16) to prevent detachment of laundry and prevent safety accidents. 18) is installed.

특히, 상기 탈수조(6)의 하측에는 상기 탈수조(6)의 저면과 연결되어 상기 탈수조(6)의 저면으로부터 세탁수를 상기 세탁조(4) 및 탈수조(6)의 상측으로 공급하는 순환파이프(22)가 설치되고, 상기 순환파이프(22)의 일측에는 상기 제어부(16)의 제어신호에 의해 작동되는 펌프(24)가 설치된다.In particular, the lower side of the dehydration tank (6) is connected to the bottom of the dehydration tank (6) for supplying the washing water to the upper side of the washing tank (4) and the dehydration tank (6) from the bottom of the dehydration tank (6) A circulation pipe 22 is installed, and a pump 24 operated by a control signal of the controller 16 is installed at one side of the circulation pipe 22.

여기서, 상기 펌프(24)가 작동되면 상기 탈수조(6) 저면의 세탁수는 상기 순환파이프(22)를 통하여 상기 세탁조(4) 및 탈수조(6)의 상측으로 펌핑되면서 순환되지만, 상기 펌프(24)가 작동되지 않으면 상기 세탁조(4) 및 탈수조(6)로 펌핑되던 세탁수는 상기 순환파이프(22)를 통해 하강하면서 배수관을 따라 배수호스(26)를 통하여 배출된다.Here, when the pump 24 is operated, the washing water of the bottom surface of the dehydration tank 6 is circulated while being pumped to the upper side of the washing tank 4 and the dehydration tank 6 through the circulation pipe 22, but the pump If 24 is not operated, the washing water pumped into the washing tank 4 and the dehydrating tank 6 is discharged through the drain hose 26 along the drain pipe while descending through the circulation pipe 22.

따라서, 세탁기의 세탁 작동시 상기 세탁조(4) 내부에는 상기 세탁날개(8) 및 세탁조(4)가 정방향 또는 역방향으로 회전되면서 회전수류가 형성될 뿐 아니라 상기 펌프(24)가 구동되면서 상기 탈수조(6) 저면의 세탁수를 상기 순환파이프(22)를 통하여 상기 세탁조(4)의 상측으로 펌핑하여 분사시킴으로 세탁수에 다양하고 강한 수류를 형성하기 때문에 세탁성능을 향상시킨다.Therefore, during the washing operation of the washing machine, the washing blade 8 and the washing tank 4 are rotated in the forward or reverse direction so that the rotational flow is formed as well as the pump 24 is driven while the dehydration tank is operated.

특히, 상기 순환파이프(72)와 세탁조(54) 및 탈수조(56)를 순환하면서 세탁수는 상기 순환파이프(72)의 세라믹 저장부(80)에 내장된 세라믹볼(82)과 반응하여 세탁수 내부에는 서서히 수산화이온(OH-)이 생성되고, 수산화이온(OH-)이 포함된 세탁수는 다시 상기 세탁조(54) 및 탈수조(56)로 공급되는 과정이 되풀이된다.In particular, while circulating the circulation pipe 72 and the washing tank 54 and the dehydration tank 56, the washing water reacts with the ceramic ball 82 embedded in the ceramic reservoir 80 of the circulation pipe 72 to wash. Hydrogen ions (OH − ) are gradually generated inside the water, and the washing water containing hydroxide ions (OH − ) is supplied to the washing tank 54 and the dehydration tank 56 again.

이와 같이, 세탁행정이 수행되는 동안 상기 순환파이프를 따라 순환하는 세탁수는 상기 순환파이프(72)의 일측에 형성된 세라믹 저장부(80)를 지나면서 내부에 저장된 세라믹볼(82)과 반응함으로 세탁수 내부에는 서서히 수산화이온(OH-)이 생성되어 세탁수를 알칼리화함으로 세탁성능을 향상시킬 뿐 아니라 물분자의 표면장력을 감소시킴으로 세탁수를 세탁물에 신속하게 침투시킴으로 세탁성능을 향상시킬 수 있다.As such, the washing water circulating along the circulation pipe during the washing operation is washed by reacting with the ceramic ball 82 stored therein while passing through the ceramic storage unit 80 formed at one side of the circulation pipe 72. be inside slowly hydroxide ions (OH -) sikimeuro is generated, as well as to improve washing performance by alkalizing the wash sikimeuro reduce the surface tension of the water molecules quickly penetrate the wash the laundry thereby improving the washing performance.

또한, 상기 순환파이프(72)를 통과하는 세탁수에 섞인 세탁물의 보푸라기 및 실밥은 상기 세라믹 저장부(80)의 하단에 설치된 거름망(84b)에 의해 걸러지게 되고, 상기 거름망(84b)에 걸러진 보푸라기 및 실밥이 많은 경우에는 상기 제어부(66)의 제어신호에 의해 상기 펌프(74)가 작동되지 않음으로 상기 거름망(84b)에 걸러진 보푸라기 및 실밥은 상기 순환파이프(72)를 따라 하강하는 세탁수의 수류에 휩쓸려 상기 배수관(76)을 통하여 배출된다.In addition, the lint and seams of the laundry mixed in the wash water passing through the circulation pipe 72 is filtered by a strainer (84b) installed on the lower end of the ceramic storage unit 80, the lint filtered by the strainer (84b) And when there are many seams, the lint and the seams filtered by the strainer 84b are not operated by the control signal of the control unit 66 so that the lint and the seams of the washing water descending along the circulation pipe 72. The water is swept away and discharged through the drain pipe 76.

상기와 같이 세탁행정이 끝나면, 헹굼 및 탈수행정이 수행된다.After the washing cycle as described above, the rinsing and dehydrating stroke is performed.

상기와 같이 구성되는 본 발명에 따른 세탁기의 세탁수 순환장치는 탈수조 저면의 세탁수가 세탁조 및 탈수조의 상측으로 펌핑되면서 세라믹과 반응하여 수산화이온(OH-)이 생성되기 때문에 세탁수가 알칼리화되어 가루비누 및 합성세제의 사용량을 줄일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 강한 수류를 형성하지 않더라도 수산화이온(OH-)이 물분자의 표면장력을 감소시켜 세탁수를 세탁물에 신속하게 침투시킴으로 세탁능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 이점이 있다.The washing of the washing machine cycle device according to the present invention constituted as described above, while the wash of the dewatering tank bottom pumped to the upper tub, and dehydrated sets by reacting with the ceramic hydroxyl ion (OH -) are wash water alkalization since the produced soap powder and not only it reduces the amount of synthetic detergent, but without forming a strong water flow hydroxide ions (OH -) to reduce the surface tension of the water molecules is an advantage capable of quickly improving the penetration sikimeuro washing ability to wash the laundry have.
