ぐす制御を行っている。2. Description of the Related Art Dehydration control of a conventional drum type washing machine having a washing / dehydrating tub is performed as follows, for example. Drain water with the rotation of the washing / dehydrating tub stopped, and after draining is completed, loosen the laundry in the washing / dehydrating tub and control the rotation of the washing / dehydrating tub to the dewatering speed. . At this time, if an imbalance of the laundry in the washing / dehydrating tub occurs and it is impossible to shift to the dehydration rotation speed, the laundry loosening control is restarted and the repetition is repeated several times. If all attempts have failed, the dehydration control itself is stopped or the dehydration control is performed at a lower rotation speed than usual. On the other hand, in a washing machine with a vertical washing / dehydrating tub called a so-called spiral type, the pulsator is repeatedly flipped forward and backward before draining to control the laundry to be uniformly unraveled in the circumferential direction of the washing / dehydrating tub. It is carried out.

が長くなるという問題がある。In the drum type washing machine, since the direction of the rotating shaft is different from that of the vertical type washing machine, the effect of loosening the laundry in the same manner as the vertical washing machine cannot be expected. In addition, since the drum type washing machine has a very large moment of inertia in the washing and dehydrating tub compared to that of the pulsator,
Rapid forward reversal itself like a pulsator is difficult. Therefore, in the conventional drum type washing machine, it takes 1 minute or more to loosen the laundry, which is longer than several seconds in the vertical washing machine. Moreover, there is a high possibility that the startup to the dehydration speed will fail, and the loosening control will be repeated several times. Furthermore, since unraveling control is not performed during drainage, there is a problem that the time required for completion of dehydration becomes long.

れる(図10)。In the above control, the laundry 14 inside the washing / dehydrating tub 3 shown in FIG. 5 is given an acceleration of slightly less than 1 G, so that the laundry 14 is close to the center at the top of the washing / dehydrating tub 3. When the portion drops (FIG. 6) and the direction of rotation of the washing / dehydrating tub 3 is clockwise as viewed from the front, it adheres to the right side surface of the washing / dehydrating tub 3 (FIG. 7). Since water 15 is still accumulated in the lower part of the washing / dehydrating tub 3, it spreads by being loosened when the laundry 14 passes through the water (FIG. 8), and is evenly distributed on the inner wall surface of the washing / dehydrating tub 3. Stick to.
When there is no water, the laundry does not get loosened, and the laundry remains attached in a dumpling state. Further, when the laundry 14 continues to rotate and is lifted, the laundry 14 contains a large amount of water, so that the laundry 14 is easily separated from each other as compared with the case where the amount of water is small,
A part of it falls downward before reaching the top of the washing / dehydrating tub 3 (FIG. 9), the dumpling state is relaxed and evenly adheres to the inner wall surface of the washing / dehydrating tub 3, and Loosening is performed (Fig. 10).

なる。The second control method will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. After the first control method, the memory 2
4 stores the rotation speed signal and changes the rotation control signal based on the comparison result between the read rotation speed and the set rotation speed, while loosening the laundry (step 201), and stores it in the memory 24. If the rotation control signal is within a preset reference value, that is, the rotation control for the motor 6 is within a predetermined control condition range, the laundry washing / dehydrating tub 3 is so arranged that the laundry falls at the top of the washing / dehydrating tub 3. When it comes to operate (step 202), drainage permission determination is performed (step 203), and drainage operation is started (step 204).
In this way, since the drainage is performed after the completion of the loosening control, it is possible to reliably correct the imbalance of the laundry, and it is possible to shift to the spin-drying rotation speed in a short time, and to shorten the spin-drying time as a whole.

能となり、脱水時間全体の短縮が可能となる。The third control method will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. During constant speed control, that is, during loosening control by the first control method (steps 301 to 303),
The average value m 1 of the rotation control signals stored in the memory 24 is obtained (step 304), the rotation of the motor 6 is controlled by this average value m 1 (step 305), and the output signal of the rotation sensor 10 is sequentially stored. (Step 30
6). If there is a large amount of imbalance in how the laundry sticks, there will be large fluctuations in the number of revolutions. When the fluctuation is extremely large, the constant speed control, that is, the loosening control by the first control method is returned to, and the rotation control signal m 1 is rewritten. Further motor 6
The rotation speed fluctuation range is within a predetermined value, for example, 1
When the speed reaches 0 rpm, it is determined that the loosening is completed (step 307), and the drainage operation is started (step 308). Since the load of the motor 6 becomes lighter as the drainage progresses, the rotation speed of the washing / dehydrating tub 3 gradually increases, and the laundry remains attached to the inner wall of the washing / dehydrating tub 3. At this point, the laundry is not unbalanced in the washing / dehydrating tub 3, so that it is possible to accelerate the dehydration rotation speed at once. As described above, according to the present control method, it is possible to reliably correct the unbalance of the laundry, and it is possible to switch to the spin-drying rotation speed in a short time, so that the spin-drying time as a whole can be shortened.

Look at the fluctuation range of the rotation control signal stored in 4. When there is a large amount of imbalance in how the laundry sticks, the torque fluctuations are large, and the rotation control signal for keeping the rotation speed constant is also large. Further, the same constant rotation speed control is continued to loosen, and the fluctuation range of the rotation control signal is within a predetermined value, for example, 1
When it reaches 0%, it is determined that the loosening is completed (step 40
6), the change of the rotation control signal is finished and fixed to a constant value (step 407), and the drainage operation is started (step 4).
08). Similarly to the above, since the load of the motor 6 becomes lighter as the drainage progresses, the rotation speed of the washing / dehydrating tub 3 gradually increases, and the laundry remains attached to the inner wall of the washing / dehydrating tub 3. Become. At this point, the laundry is not unbalanced in the washing / dehydrating tub 3, so that it is possible to accelerate the dehydration rotation speed at once. In this way, the unbalance of the laundry can be reliably corrected, and the spin speed can be changed to the spin speed in a short time, so that the spin time can be shortened.

A dehydration control device for a drum type washing machine having a washing / dehydrating tank which is rotatably provided around a horizontal axis in a water tub and is partially immersed in a washing liquid in the water tub. Rotation means for rotating the dehydration tub, rotation speed detection means for detecting the rotation speed of the washing and dehydration tub, drainage means for discharging water in the water tub, and control of each operation of the rotation means and the drainage means When the laundry in the washing / dehydrating tub is dehydrated, the control means controls the rotation means based on the output signal of the rotation speed detection means before the drainage by the drainage means is started. If the laundry is
濯兼 rotating the washing and dewatering tank at a rotational speed such as to fall on top of the dewatering tank, also the rotation speed of the washing and dewatering tank
Make sure that the laundry falls at the top of the washing and dewatering tub
To the rotating means for maintaining a constant rotation speed
After the fluctuation range of the rotation control signal is within the predetermined range,
A dehydration control device for a drum-type washing machine, which is configured to perform a drainage operation by drainage means .
