Benefits of technology

[0011]Accordingly there is provided a tandem washing system configuration comprising at least two automatic washing machines of identical construction disposed parallely or vertically adjacent to each other being flowably connected via a channel means having a two-way solenoid valve, each of the two automatic washing machines having individual tap water inlets separate effluent drainage outlets disposal trays containing washing chemicals, individual heating devices, separate processors, and identically designed rotatable means. The system configuration is provided with a micro-processor

Problems solved by technology

As a result, there is a heavy use of resources and subsequent discharge of used water including various quantity of detergents and impurities.
The prior art devices disclose storage of certain effluents of washing machine generally known as grey water, which however is restricted to rinse water only having less detergent.
None of these prior art d

Embodiment Construction

[0021]In FIG. 1 there is a twin assembly of Washing Machines assigned with reference numerals (100 and 200). The machines (100, 200) are connected through a channel means having a two-way solenoid valve means (300), for channelling water from one to another. The input to the channel (300) passes through a Sieve and / or Filtration device (310), to remove suspended impurities like Lint and other large particles. Additionally, the channel means passes through an Ultraviolet or Gamma rays irradiation chamber (320) to remove pathogens. The channel is provided with a back-flush device taking input water from a tap and discharging back-flushed water into a drainage.

[0022]Both the washing machines (100, 200) have independent tap water inlets (110, 210) and effluent drainage pipes (130, 230).

[0023]Both the machines (100, 200) are controlled by a single controller (400) with a pre-programmed logic and a default setting that can be changed through electronic push buttons (410) and knobs (420), ...

Abstract

A tandem configuration of automated washing machines is disclosed. A microprocessor controls solenoid valves to direct effluent of each selected cycle of one machine, into another machine for reuse. Both the machines operate in tandem applying pre-set microprocessor logic, which is further programmable for various options, keeping interlocking features Intact. By placing the washing apparatus on rooftops, further recycling is achieved.

Description

FIELD OF INVENTION [0001]This invention relates to a detergent and water saving device associated with automatic washing machine configurations. The invention particularly relates to a tandem washing system configuration.[0002]Broadly the invention makes use of automatic washing machine technology for application in domestic, community, commercial and industrial uses such as in homes, hotels, laundry services, offices and factories etc. The invention by its application relates to environment pollution technology.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003]In a typical automatic washing machine, there are various cycles for example Pre-wash, Wash, Rinse and Spin, controlled through a programmable integrated circuit associated with a variable speed electric motor, solenoid valves and other electro-mechanical means. In such machines an electric water heater is also provided. These various cycles may be programmed as per the requirement of the washable load and availability of resources like wate...
