By the method, water flow in the inner barrel is not influenced by centrifugal force and does not converge and flow towards the large opening end of the inner barrel under the normal washing state of the washing machine, water flow in the inner barrel rotating at high speed under the dehydration state of the washing machine is influenced by centrifugal force and flows towards the dehydration flow channel at the large opening end of the inner barrel and is discharged outside, so that water contained in the inner barrel cannot flow out from the dehydration opening when the inner barrel rotates normally, the effects of sealing the inner barrel in the rotation process of the inner barrel and opening the normal discharge of the water contained in the inner barrel by the dehydration valve when the inner barrel rotates and dehydrates are achieved, and the aim of normal dehydration of the washing machine with double effects of rotation of the inner barrel and water containing is fulfilled.
In this embodiment, the specific steps of the dewatering method of the washing machine are as follows,
step 1, rotating an inner barrel of a washing machine at a certain rotating speed, and enabling water flow in the inner barrel to flow to a position attached to the side wall of the inner barrel under the action of centrifugal force;
under the action of the conical inner cylinder, water flow attached to the side wall of the inner cylinder is guided by the side wall of the inner cylinder and is acted by centrifugal force in the rotating process of the inner cylinder, so that the water flow in the inner cylinder flows to the bottom of the inner cylinder with larger diameter;
and 3, enabling the water flowing to the bottom of the inner barrel to flow into a dehydration flow channel arranged at the bottom of the inner barrel, enabling the water to flow out of the inner barrel from the center of the inner barrel along the dehydration flow channel, and then discharging the water out of the washing machine along a drain pipe.
In this embodiment, in step 3, the drainage pump on the dewatering channel and/or the drainage pipe starts to work to apply pressure to the water flow flowing to the bottom of the inner drum, so that the water flows along the dewatering channel and the drainage pipe and is drained to the outside of the washing machine. When the washing machine executes other programs, the drainage pump on the dewatering flow channel and/or the drainage pipe does not work, so that water in the inner barrel is not adsorbed and discharged by the drainage pump, and the water in the inner barrel is retained to normally wash clothes.
In the embodiment, in the dewatering process of the washing machine, the inner barrel rotates at a medium-high speed, so that water in the inner barrel is attached to the side wall of the inner barrel under the action of centrifugal force and flows towards the large opening end of the inner barrel.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
