The invention discloses a control method of a washing
machine, and relates to the technical field of washing
machine control. The control method is used for solving the problem of high cost of a washing
machine with a
wrinkle removing function. The washing machine comprises a spraying device, a motor and a
drying air duct between a shell and a washing drum, the
drying air duct communicates with different positions of the washing drum, and a heating device and a fan are installed in the
drying air duct. The spraying device comprises a spray head mounted in the drying air duct, the spraying direction of the spray head is consistent with the air guide direction of the drying air duct, and the fan is used for guiding water sprayed out by the spray head to the heating device. The control methodcomprises the steps that after a
steaming washing operation
signal is received, the motor is controlled to drive the washing drum to rotate to a preset rotating speed, and the current
weight value ofthe washing drum is obtained; according to the current
weight value, the total number of times of the
steaming washing process needing to be carried out is determined; the heating device is controlled to be started, the fan and the spraying device are controlled to circularly execute the
steaming washing process, and the number of times of executing the steaming washing process is counted; and after the number of times of counting reaches the total number of times, the washing machine exits from the steaming washing process.
