[0001] The present invention relates to a field of electronic appliances. Moreparticularly, the present invention relates to system and method to treat a laundry article.Background
[0002] The background description includes information that may be useful inunderstanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information providedherein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publicationspecifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Home appliances play a significant role in the modern life. It has always playedan important role in man's life, dating back to the Stone Age when man first began to utilisetools. Humans in the twenty-first century employ more sophisticated tools and home gadgetsin their daily lives. The more people try to make their lives more convenient and comfortable,the more important appliances become in shaping a human's lifestyle. Home appliances areelectrical or mechanical devices that perform certain domestic tasks, such as cooking andcleaning. Household appliances are significant appliances that are utilised in our homes for avariety of daily tasks such as cooking, cleaning, exercising, purifying, and food preservation.The majority of domestic appliances are huge equipments that are found in bedrooms,bathrooms, hallways, and kitchens, namely fridge, air conditioners, washing machines, etc.
[0004] Washing machines has brought an unparallel alteration in human life since itsadvent. Washing machines have contributed in saving time and providing comfort to humansby exemption of manual washing procedures. A washing machine typically consists of a cabinet housing an outside tub for holding wash and rinse water, a perforated laundry itemdrum within the tub, and an agitator within the drum. To spin the drum and agitator in relationto one another, a drive and motor system is installed beneath the immobile outer tub.
[0005] Though washing machines have reduced time consumption and humaninvolvement in laundry cleaning, it does not provide satisfactory cleaning experiencesometimes, since most of the washing machines are incorporated with a mechanism of rotatinglaundries along with the water in the same direction (either clock-wise or counter clock-wisedirection) within the tub, as a result water cannot contribute with an effective pressure on thelaundries in the cleaning mechanism. Secondly, sometimes washing machines cannot attainproper solubility of detergent because of the low velocity and non-chaotic motion of waterwithin the drum.
[0006] The aforementioned issues associated with the washing machines can beresolved by either increasing the laundry washing duration or increasing the concentration ofdetergent used. Each of the two solutions are not viable since both can damage the laundry.
[0007] It is therefore, desired to design a system and method which can provide aneffective mechanism for cleaning of the laundries and an optimum mechanism for the solubilityof detergent, which could result in satisfactory cleaning experience using a washing machine.

[0007] The following discussion provides many example embodiments of theinventive subject matter. Although each embodiment represents a single combination ofinventive elements, the inventive subject matter is considered to include all possiblecombinations of the disclosed elements. Thus, if one embodiment comprises elements A, B,and C, and a second embodiment comprises elements B and D, then the inventive subject matteris also considered to include other remaining combinations of A, B, C, or D, even if notexplicitly disclosed.
[0008] The present invention relates to a field of electronic appliances. Moreparticularly, the present invention relates to system and method to treat a laundry article.
[0009] Fig. 1 illustrates an exemplary architecture of system 100 to treat the laundryarticles, in accordance with embodiment of present disclosure. The system 100 can comprise apower source 102, a rotatable drum 104, a motor 106, a control unit 108, a polarity switch 110and other known components of an electronic appliance / apparatus.
[00010] In an embodiment, the power source 102 can be arranged to provide an electriccurrent to the control unit 108 for functioning of the components of the system 100. The powersource 102 can be connected to a battery or an external power switch via a power cord, whereinthe power switch can provide an input voltage of 110V or 220V. The external power switchcan be switched ON / OFF to either provide the electrical current or cut-off the electrical current.The power source 102 may include a step-down transformer which may have a primary (input)winding connected to the external power switch via power cord and a secondary (output)winding whose alternating-current voltages are lower than those applied to the primary windingso as to deliver an output voltage lower than the input voltage. The output voltage can providean electric current, which can then be provided to the control unit 108.
[00011] In an embodiment, the rotatable drum 104 can be arranged to receive thelaundry articles and a treatment fluid, wherein the laundry articles can be selected from a pant,a shirt, a pair of socks, a jacket and other known articles that can be treated within aconventional washing machine. The capacity of the rotatable drum 104 can be measured by thenet weight of the laundry articles in a dry state. The rotatable drum 104 can move around inthe system 100 and is perforated with holes to allow the water in an out. An outer tub (notshown in FIG 1) can be configured to contain the rotatable drum 104 and water, stopping itfrom leaking into the rest of the components of system 100 and support the rotatable drum 104.The rotatable drum 104 can be made up of a plastic material, which can be economically priced.An advantage of having the rotatable drum 104 made up of the plastic material can easecleaning and it may not get corroded by hard water. The rotatable drum 104 can be made up ofsteel with a specific design, which can give an enhanced treatment to the laundry articles. Therotatable drum 104 can be placed horizontally or vertically in the system 100.
[00012] In an embodiment, the motor 106 can be arranged to rotate the rotatable drum104 in both clock-wise and counter clock-wise direction, based on the input received from thecontrol unit 108. The motor 106 can be a conventional electric motor. Central components ofthe motor 106 can be an immovable stator, with a stable magnetic field, a rotor (also anchor)and a pole changer (polwender). As the name suggests, the rotor can be rotatable and may havea changing magnetic field by supplying electricity at the polwender. The electrical current fromthe control unit 108 can be supplied via grinding contacts or carbon brushes within the motor106 in such a way that the current direction in the rotor is reversed exactly at the moment, whenthe north and south poles have converged. This process can change the magnetic field of therotor within the motor 106 according to the basics of physics: Poles of the same name repeleach other until they are exactly opposite each other again. After that, a re-polling may takeplace and the process can be repeated until no more electrical current is supplied by the controlunit 108.
[00013] In an embodiment, the control unit 108 can be arranged to enable the rotationof the motor 106. The control unit 108 may comprise an op-amp based simple chaotic jerkoscillator, which comprises the two anti-parallelly arranged diodes, which can provide a nonsinusoidal moment of the motor 106 to generate an uneven motion of water and the laundryarticles, thereby exerting more pressure on the laundry articles to provide a better treatment ofthe laundry articles. The control unit 108 can receive the electrical current from the powersource 102 and can generate a first non-linear voltage and a second non-linear voltage, whereinthe first non-linear voltage can enable rotation of the motor 106 in a first direction of rotation,which can be clock-wise direction or counter clock-wise direction, and the second non-linearvoltage can enable rotation of the motor 106 in a second direction of rotation, which can beclock-wise direction or counter clock-wise direction. The first direction of rotation and thesecond direction of rotation can be opposite to each other at an instant.
[00014] In an embodiment, the polarity switch 110 can be arranged to alter supply ofgenerated first non-linear voltage and generated second non-linear voltage to motor 106 toenable transformation of rotation of motor 106 between the first direction of rotation andsecond direction of rotation, to generate a turbulence of chaotic motion within the rotatabledrum 104. The polarity switch 110 can utilize a relay to automatically switch the supply of thegenerated first non-linear voltage and generated second non-linear voltage and vice-versa (ineach half cycle of the rotation of the motor 106), thereby increasing the frequency of rotationin direction of rotation of the motor 106, which can create the turbulence of chaotic motionwithin the rotatable drum 104 to provide an enhanced treatment of laundry and proper solubilityof the treatment fluid.
[00015] In an embodiment, the control unit 108 can determine frequency of alterationof the supply of generated first non-linear voltage and generated second non-linear voltage tothe motor 106. Consequently, in a first half of the cycle, the motor 106 can rotate in clock-wisedirection and in a second half of the cycle the motor 106 can rotate in anti-clock wise direction,respectively. The motor 106 can be rotated by the first half of cycle with a strong chaotic motionwhich can be generated in the rotatable drum 104 in a forward direction. The chaotic motiondue to the first half of cycle can be strong in one direction and can be repeated in reversedirection by alteration of the supply. This phenomenon can increase the solubility of treatmentfluid in the rotatable drum 104 by the introduction of turbulence of chaotic oscillation and mayalso reduce the requirement of hardware.
[00016] In an embodiment, the system 100 can comprise an alert means to notify a userregarding the completion of a wash cycle or a dryer cycle, notify a user regarding the excessiveamount of the received laundry article, notify a user regarding the level of treatment fluid in adetergent dispenser, etc. The alert means can be selected from a speaker, an LED, a messageetc.
[00017] In an embodiment, the control unit 108 can comprise a sensor to detect anamount of received laundry items in the rotatable drum 104. The sensor can be a pressure sensoror a force sensitive resistor, which could calculate the weight of laundry article and can intimatethrough an alert means, if the calculated weight becomes greater than the capacity of therotatable drum 104.
[00018] In an embodiment, the control unit 108 can control the inflow of the treatmentfluid (stored in a detergent dispenser (not shown in FIG. 1)) in the rotatable drum 104 on thebasis of the calculated weight of the received laundry article. The control unit 108 can estimatethe amount of treatment fluid needed for the received laundry article based on the calculatedweight of the laundry article.
[00019] In an embodiment, the system 100 can comprise a drying unit, which can workby pushing a warm dry air through the wet laundry articles to remove moisture and may coola humid air in the heat exchanger. The humid air can condense the moisture and collects in thetub or pumps down the drain and cycle may be repeated.
[00020] Fig. 2 illustrates an exemplary circuit diagram 200 of the op-amp based simplechaotic jerk oscillator comprising the two anti-parallel diodes within the control unit 108 of thesystem 100 to treat the laundry articles, in accordance with embodiments of the presentdisclosure. The exemplary circuit diagram 200 can comprise a single Op-Amp 202, a firstgrounded capacitor (C1) 204, a second grounded capacitor (C2) 206, a first resistor (R1) 208,a second resistor (R2) 210, an inductor (L) 212, a first diode 214 arranged anti-parallelly witha second diode 216.
[00021] In an embodiment, the first grounded capacitor (C1) 204 can be connected atan inverting terminal (pin 2) of the single Op-Amp 202 with the first resistor (R1) 208 asfeedback. The second grounded capacitor (C2) 206 can be connected to one end of the inductor(L) 212 with the second resistor (R2) 210 as positive feedback. The second terminal of thesecond resistor (R2) 210 can be connected at a pin 3 of the single Op-Amp 202 with the firstdiode 214 arranged anti-parallelly with the second diode 216. The second end of the inductor(L) 212 can be connected to the single Op-Amp 202 at an output terminal (pin 6).
[00022] In an embodiment, VC1 can be a first voltage across the first groundedcapacitor (C1) 204 and VC2 can be a second Voltage across the second grounded capacitor(C2) 206. Both the voltages VC1 and VC2 (each with a positive orientation) can be at thepositive end of the first grounded capacitor (C1) 204 and the second grounded capacitor (C2)206, respectively. Finally, the first resistor (R1) 208 can be connected between the positiveterminals of the second grounded capacitor (C2) 206 and the single Op-Amp 202 at pin 6.
[00023] In an embodiment, a typical configuration of the op-amp based simple chaoticjerk oscillator can depict a non-linear curve, which can be a smooth symmetrical slopecontinuities around current axis. The first diode 214 arranged anti-parallelly with the seconddiode 216 can generate an equivalent nonlinear current Id that can satisfy the followingequation Id = Id1-Id2 = ±Is [eVC1 / VT - e-VC1 / VT] = ±2Issinh (VC1 / VT) where Is and VTcan be a saturation current of the first diode 214 in a saturation region and a thermal voltage,respectively. The nonlinear continuities in the current / voltage curve (Id vs Vd) can beillustrated in a FIG. 3.
[00024] In an embodiment, by choosing appropriate values the first grounded capacitor(C1) 204, the second grounded capacitor (C2) 206, the first resistor (R1) 208, the secondresistor (R2) 210 and the inductor (L) 212, the op-amp based simple chaotic jerk oscillator canoperate in different operating regions for example limit cycle, double Scroll attractor, etc.Consequently, a chaotic circuit can be made that can oscillate and generate a chaotic behaviour(illustrated in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5).
[00025] In an embodiment, given a specified physical configuration and a specifiedinitial state specified by VC1, VC2 and IL (the voltage across the first grounded capacitor (C1)204, the second grounded capacitor (C2) 206 and the current through the inductor (L) 212), theevolution of the op-amp based simple chaotic jerk oscillator can be deterministic, but thebehaviour chaotic. The op-amp based simple chaotic jerk oscillator with the same initialconditions and physical parameters can follow the same course of states over time and thiscourse can repeat itself over a long period. The chaotic oscillatory systems trajectory can besensitive to initial conditions. In addition, the power spectral density function can spread overa wide range of frequencies, with the peak frequency of the fundamental being governed by aR-L-C circuit.
[00026] In an embodiment, a general state model equation for the op-amp based simplechaotic jerk oscillator comprising the two anti-parallel diodes can be examined by the followingchaotic flow:Equationwhere, significant terms can be dot (.) for differential derivative of their respective variables(x, y, z) and a sign hyperbolic function f(x) = ±γsinh(x). By using mathematicalmanipulation equation (1) can be modelled in the following jerk form:\Equation
[00027] It can be notably observed that the op-amp based simple chaotic jerk oscillatorcomprising the two anti-parallel diodes may involve a third derivative of a single variable withthree parameters (α, β, γ) and a nonlinear function. By applying the Kirchhoff's law across theop-amp based simple chaotic jerk oscillator comprising the two anti-parallel diodes may yieldfollowing set of equation:Equation
[00028] The set of above equations can be modelled as a state equation (1) by takingVC1 = xVT , VC2 = yVT and R1IL = zVT with a scaling factor (VT) in order to realize componentvalues for the first grounded capacitor (C1) 204, the second grounded capacitor (C2) 206, thefirst resistor (R1) 208, the second resistor (R2) 210 and the inductor (L) 212 from the numericalvalues of parameters (α, β, γ). In addition, the values of components can be obtained by relationα = C2 / C1, β = R12C2 / L, γ = R2 / Rd respectively, and scale time factor τ = t / R1C2. In equation(1), γ > 0 and its value (R2 / Rd) may depend on the resistance across the pair diode (Rd).
[00029] Here, two anti-parallel diodes can be connected to each other that may resultin an equivalent nonlinear current Id as:EquationVT = ηkT / q represent identity factor, thermal voltage and Id can be the function of sinehyperbolic.

As illustrated in flow diagram 600, the methodmay include steps of: at step (602) receiving, from a power source, an electrical current at acontrol unit, which comprises an op-amp based simple chaotic jerk oscillator, which comprisesthe two anti-parallelly arranged diodes; at step (604) generating, a first non-linear voltage anda second non-linear voltage from the received electrical current, wherein the first non-linearvoltage enables rotation of the motor in a first direction and the non-second linear secondvoltage enables rotation of the motor in a second direction, which is opposite to the firstdirection; at step (606) altering, through a polarity switch, the supply of the generated first nonlinear voltage and the generated second non-linear voltage to the motor to enabletransformation of the rotation of the motor between the first direction and the second direction,to generate a turbulent environment within a rotatable drum.
