Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a washer-dryer comprising dampers damping the vibrational motions of the tub.
  • the tub in which laundry is loaded into the drum rotating within makes oscillation and vibration motions depending on the load and the number of revolutions during operation.
  • the tub is generally connected from its bottom to the base by means of dampers, and the dampers serve in reducing the transmission of the vibrations of the tub by damping them, and also acts as an energy transmission path transmitting the vibrations to the body.
  • the tub and the drive group make vibrational motions of maximum amplitude at the resonance frequency zone, when the washing machine shifts from the washing step to the spinning step.
  • the dampers prevent the tub from colliding into the body by damping vibrations of high amplitudes.
  • the vibration amplitude decreases and the damper whose friction forces are adjusted according to vibrations of high amplitudes, transmit the vibrations of lower amplitudes to the body generally without damping when a single-acting damper is being used.
  • Single-acting dry friction dampers exhibit the same effect in all vibration amplitudes, i.e. all displacements of the damper cylinder with respect to the piston. Almost all of the kinetic energy of the actuation group and the tub is transmitted to the body, generating noises upsetting the user, particularly when shifting from the washing revolutions to the spinning revolutions, and from the spinning revolutions to the washing revolutions, i.e. in the resonance zone.
  • dampers damping a higher amount of energy is needed due to increasing user demands for damping vibrations of both higher and lower amplitudes, and to wash laundry with a higher capacity.
  • Double-acting, electronic or hydraulic dampers are used to meet such demand, but they have higher costs.
  • Patent applications no. US2006010935 (A1) and US2005188472 (A1) relate to a damper utilizing magnetic forces and a washing machine having said damper.
  • the aim of the present invention is to realize a washer-dryer comprising dampers damping vibrational motions of higher and lower amplitudes of the tub and utilizing magnetic forces.
  • the damper used to damp the vibrational motion of the tub comprises a coil wrapped on the outer surface of the cylinder, applying magnetic field to the inner region of the cylinder upon being supplied with electric current by means of a power source, and a core acting as an electromagnet by being polarized in the radial direction by the action of the applied magnetic field.
  • the damper is of the dry friction type, and comprises a friction member fixed to the inner surface of the cylinder and contacting all around the piston, and permanent magnets placed all around the friction member, polarized in the radial direction, placed to the inner side of the core so that their identical poles face each other, and enabling the friction member to throttle the piston by pushing the friction member in radial direction according to the current passed through the coil and the magnitude of the magnetic field applied by the core.
  • the washer-dryer further comprises a control unit detecting the vibration amplitude of the tub during operation, and enabling applying current to the coil by means of the power source and applying pressure to the piston by the magnets pushing the friction member in radial direction from outside to inside, upon the vibration amplitude exceeding a predetermined top critical value.
  • the damping effect of the damper is increased in the periods of shifting from the washing revolutions to the spinning revolutions, or from the spinning revolutions to the washing revolutions.
  • the oscillation amplitudes of the tub decrease and the damping effect of the damper is reduced.
  • the damping affect can be modified by the current applied to the coil by the power source, and different damping effects are applied in accordance with each different oscillation amplitude.
  • the magnets apply pressure to the friction member in radial direction, the friction member throttles the piston all around by narrowing when the damping effect is increased, and a compact damper structure is thus obtained.

  • a friction member (10) having a ring shape, for example a mating ring preferably made of elastomer material fixed to the inner surface of the cylinder (4), contacting all around the piston (5), and
  • the damper (6) comprises a plurality of bar-shaped cores (9) arranged in the circumference of the cylinder (4) equally spaced all around the inner side of the coil (8), and a plurality of bar-shaped magnets (11) arranged in the circumference of the friction member (10) equally spaced and mutually with the cores (9).
  • the damper (6) comprises a ring shaped core (9) surrounding the cylinder (4) body at the inner side on the coil (8), and a ring shaped magnet (11) surrounding the friction member (10) nested and co-axially with the core (9).
  • the damper (6) further comprises a plastic shield (12) fitted around the coil (8) wrapped on the outer surface of the cylinder (4).
  • the washer-dryer (1) comprises a control unit (13) measuring the vibration amplitude of the tub (3) by means of displacement sensors or by another method, and enabling applying current to the coil (8) by means of the power source (7) and applying pressure to the piston (5) by the magnets (11) pushing the friction member (10) in radial direction from outside to inside, and increasing the friction force between the friction member (10) and the piston (5) and thus the damping effect of the damper (6), upon the vibration amplitude exceeding a predetermined top critical value.

  • the damping effect of the damper (6) is increased when the tub (3) oscillates with resonance frequency, particularly during shifting of the drum (2) from the washing revolutions to the spinning revolutions.
  • the damping effect of the damper (6) is reduced.
  • the damping affect can be modified by the current applied to the coil (8) by the power source (7), and different damping effects are applied in accordance with each different oscillation amplitude.
  • the damping effect can be modified so as to increase or decrease constantly instead of in steps, providing “smooth transitions” of the washer-dryer (1) from the washing revolutions to the spinning revolutions, or from the spinning revolutions to the washing revolutions.
  • the magnets (11) apply pressure to the friction member (10) in ‘’radial’’ direction from outside to inside, the friction member (10) throttles the piston (5) all around by “narrowing” when the damping effect is increased, and a compact damper (6) structure is thus obtained occupying less space.
