Washing machine and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a washing machine and a control method thereof. The washing machine comprises an inner cylinder, an inner cylinder door, an inner cylinder door lock, and a door lock detection device. The inner cylinder is provided with a washing chamber for independently containing washing water; the inner cylinder door is mounted at the cylinder opening of the inner cylinder in an openableand closable mode; the inner cylinder door lock is used for locking the inner cylinder door and keeping the inner cylinder door in a closed state; and the door lock detection device is used for detecting whether the inner cylinder door lock is locked or not. The washing machine is provided with the door lock detection device for locking the inner cylinder door in place, so that the situation thatthe inner cylinder door is locked in place, and the locking judgment accuracy is 100% is ensured; and due to the fact that the dehydration rotating speed of a roller can reach 1600 revolutions per minute, if the inner cylinder door on the inner cylinder is not locked well, safety accidents can happen, the safety of the machine is greatly improved, and user health and user experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of laundry equipment, in particular to a washing machine and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] As the most widely used household appliance in people's daily life, washing machine helps people to get rid of the troubles of laundry and brings great convenience to people. However, the existing washing machines generally include an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder, and a plurality of dehydration holes are distributed on the barrel wall of the inner cylinder, and in the washing process, the washing water between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder will not be used, causing this part of the washing Water is wasted, and the dirt generated during the washing process will accumulate as the water flows between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder. With long-term use, the accumulation of dirt will affect the washing effect and reduce the user experience. [0003] In order t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This scheme seems to be feasible in principle, but in practice there will be many problems, such as the low detection accuracy of the reed switch, and the inner cylinder door displacement difference between the two states of locking and unlocking the inner cylinder door is small, and dry The selection of the specifications and models of the reed switch and the electromagnet, and the setting of the position are relatively complicated, and there will be a state where the inner cylinder door is closed but not locked, which is difficult to be monitored by the dry yellow tube, and there are potential safety hazards
