Washing machine and washing method

Abstract

The invention relates to a washing machine and a washing method. The washing machine comprises an inner barrel, an outer barrel and solid particles as washing medium. The inner barrel is rotatably arranged on the inner side of the outer barrel, the inner barrel is divided into two layers which are respectively a first inner barrel and a second inner barrel, the second inner barrel surrounds the outer side of the first inner barrel, a plurality of discharge ports enabling the particles to be left out are formed in the barrel wall of the second inner barrel, and a turnover plate capable of turning over and being opened is arranged on each discharge port. The washing machine enables the turnover plate to be opened automatically through centrifugal force generated by the inner barrel rotating at high speed enables, the particles are left out to from the inner barrel to the outer barrel, and are recovered to a material storing space, and therefore separating and recovering of the particles are achieved, and not only is the process of the separating and the recovering of the particles simplified, but also a washing process is simplified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a washing machine, in particular to a washing machine using solid particles to participate in washing and a washing method, belonging to the technical field of washing machines. Background technique [0002] The washing method of the traditional washing machine is to use water as the washing medium, add water and detergent to the washing machine for washing, use the dehydration function to discharge the sewage in the washing machine after washing, and then re-add clean water to continue the washing or rinsing process. Drain the water after all the washing is completed. This method simply drains the water and refills it with clean washing water, which consumes a lot of water. At the same time, the washing liquid also contains more chemical substances harmful to the environment, and each washing process takes a long time and consumes a lot of power. [0003] Aiming at the shortcomings of the traditional washing machine, a washi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Washing machines using this particle washing method generally have a storage space for particles in the washing machine. The storage space generally adopts the structure of a storage box, and an inlet hole and a discharge hole are arranged on the outer cylinder. Before washing, the particles are removed from the feed The holes are put into the outer cylinder. After washing, the particles are completely recovered into the storage space of the particles. When the particles are recovered, the inner cylinder needs to be rotated at a high speed, and the particles are thrown into the storage space by centrifugal force. For dehydration, it is necessary to add and recover particles again. The structure and washing process of the washing machine are relatively complicated.
