Problems solved by technology

[0007] But in the above-mentioned structure, because the turbidity sensor is based on light transmittance detection, if the surface of the turbidity sensor emitting unit and receiving unit used for a long time is blocked by dirt, the judgment of light refraction is insensitive and inaccurate; After the first use, air dust or washing water stains adhere to the dirt on the surface of the turbidity sensor. In the next washing, the dirt on the surface of the turbidity sensor cannot be dissolved and cleaned immediately after entering the

Example Embodiment

[0038] The washing machine of the present invention can detect whether the rinsing is clean, whether stains, detergents, washing powder, and softener remain. By detecting the conductivity and turbidity value of the water, it can be judged whether the laundry additives have residuals.

[0039] Such as figure 1 As shown, the washing machine of the present invention includes: a box body 1, an outer tube 2, an inner tube 3, a water inlet system 4, a computer board controller 5, a door cover 6, a drainage system 7, a motor drive device 8, and other components. The water inlet system 4 includes a prewash valve 41, a main wash valve 42, a prewash water inlet pipe 43, a main wash water inlet pipe 44, a detergent box 45, and a water inlet hose 46. The pre-wash valve 41 communicates with the cavity of the detergent box 45 through the pre-wash water inlet pipe 43, and no laundry additives can be placed in the cavity of the detergent box 45, and communicates with the outer cylinder 2 through ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a washing machine control method and a washing machine. The washing machine is provided with a turbidity sensor for detecting water turbidity and a conductivity sensor for detecting water conductivity. According to the washing machine control method, conductivity of clear water is detected before washing is carried out, conductivity and a turbidity value of rinsing water are detected at the same time at every rinsing stage after washing is carried out, a conductivity variable quantity is calculated according to the measured conductivity of clear water and conductivity of rinsing water, and rinsing is stopped when the turbidity value and the conductivity variable quantity are both lower than the corresponding set threshold value. During every rinsing, the washing machine can automatically detect and calculate turbidity of rinsing water and conductivity changes of rinsing water, judge whether clothes are rinsed clean according to turbidity and conductivity changes of rinsing water and stop working in time after the clothes are rinsed clean to save water and electricity. The washing machine can automatically add rinsing frequency if the washing machine detects that the clothes are not rinsed clean when the rinsing frequency reaches the set value, so that residual stains, detergents and softeners are reduced, and the purpose of healthy laundry is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of washing machines, in particular to a washing machine control method and a washing machine which simultaneously adopt turbidity and conductivity detection to realize washing and stop immediately. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of washing machines and the development of control technology, more intelligent washing machines are gradually coming out. How to reduce detergent residue and save water and electricity while washing clothes has always been one of the focuses of consumers. [0003] Traditional washing machines either set the washing time and rinsing times regardless of the dirtiness of the clothes or the amount of washing powder added; , softener and other washing additives, fixed washing time, no matter how much washing additives are left, washing and rinsing are the same. If too many additives are added, the rinsing may not be clean and there will be residues on the clothes, which wil...
