Embodiment Construction

[0035] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 15 .

[0036] FIG. 1 is a vertical sectional view showing the overall structure of a washing machine 1 . The washing machine 1 is a fully automatic washing machine and includes an outer case 10 . The outer case 10 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, is formed of metal or synthetic resin, and has openings on its top and bottom surfaces. A top panel 11 made of synthetic resin is superimposed on the top opening of the outer case 10 and fixed to the outer case 10 with screws. In FIG. 1 , the left side is the front of the washing machine 1, and the right side is the back side. On the upper surface of the top panel 11 located on the back side, a synthetic resin back panel 12 is similarly overlapped and fixed on the top panel 11 with screws. . A base 13 made of synthetic resin is superimposed on the bottom opening of the outer case 10 and fixed to the outer case 10 with screws. Th...

Abstract

A laundry machine (1) imparts an antibacterial effect to the laundry with metal ions. The laundry machine (1) has an ion-dissolving unit (100), which applies a voltage between electrodes (113, 114) to dissolve metal ions into the water from the anode. A drive circuit (120) of the ion-dissolving unit (100) is controlled so that the quantity of metal ions dissolved may be sufficient for the amount of laundry. The electrodes (113, 114) are made of silver, and water containing silver ions at a concentration of 50 ppb or more is used for rinsing. The operation program is set so that the water is in contact with the laundry for more than five minutes. At the initial stage of the contact, a stirring step of predetermined time is provided. After the step, a rest step of predetermined time is provided. The stirring power at the stirring step is controlled depending on the amount of laundry.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a washing machine capable of antibacterial treatment of laundry with metal ions. Background technique [0002] When washing in a washing machine, finishing substances are often added to the water, especially the rinse water. As finishing substances, softeners or pastes are common. In addition to this, recently, there has been an increasing demand for finishing treatment to impart antibacterial properties to laundry. [0003] From a hygienic point of view, it is best to dry the laundry in the sun. However, in recent years, the number of families with no one at home during the day has increased due to the increase in the employment rate of women and the development of nuclear families. In such a family, it can only be dried indoors. Even in families with people at home during the day, it is still necessary to dry indoors on rainy days. [0004] In the case of drying indoors, bacteria or mold are more likely to multiply on th...
