Abstract
A control method of a laundry machine is disclosed. The control method of a laundry machine comprising a circulating step configured to circulate water inside the tub to re-supply the water to the tub, the circulating step implemented in a heating step.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A control method of a laundry machine comprising:
a circulating step configured to circulate water inside the tub to resupply the water to the tub, the circulating step implemented in a heating step.
2 . The control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the circulating step implemented in the heating step has a relatively short operation time than circulating steps implemented in a water supplying step and a laundry wetting step have.
3 . The control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heating step drives the drum in one of a tumbling motion, a rolling motion and a swing motion.
4 . The control method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the circulating step and the driving of the drum are stopped and water is re-supplied to a predetermined water level, when a water level of the tub is decreased less than a reference level.
5 . The control method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein driving of a heater is stopped when the water is re-supplied to the tub.
6 . The control method of claim 4 , wherein the reference water level is determined to be higher a predetermined distance than the height of the heater.
7 . The control method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the heating step is re-implemented after the re-supply of the water to the tub.
8 . The control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the laundry machine comprises a driving unit comprising a shaft connected to a drum, a bearing housing to rotatably support the shaft, and a motor to rotate the shaft, and a suspension assembly is connected to the driving unit.
9 . The control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the laundry machine comprises a rear gasket for sealing to prevent washing water from leaking from a space between a driving unit and a tub, and enabling the driving unit movable relative to the tub.
10 . The control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a tub is supported rigidly more than a drum being supported by a suspension assembly.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
