Therefore, the amount of water absorption of the laundry can be increased without increasing the amount of water supplied, and the amount of detergent components remaining in the laundry can be reduced.
- the predetermined water level h5 is a level at which the circulation pump 30 does not see air. Thus, the air in the circulation pump 30 can be prevented from leaking, and the water in the water tank 3 can be efficiently circulated through the circulation water jet pipe 32.

- the detergent component contained in the laundry is removed from the laundry by the centrifugal force due to the increase in the rotation speed of the rotating drum 4.
- the spouted water is replenished with water again to replenish the dewatered water.
- the detergent components in the laundry can be efficiently removed to improve the rinsing performance of the laundry.
- the rotary drum 4 can be rotated while maintaining a stable centrifugal force.
- the detergent component in the laundry dissolves out by repeating the absorption of water from the rinse water of the laundry at the time of drainage and the dehydration by the rotation of the rotating drum to improve the rinsing performance. It can be done. Therefore, it is applicable not only to a home-use washing machine but also to a washing machine for fibers and the like, and a business-use washing machine mainly made of washing with water.
