Washing machine

Abstract

A washing machine includes a water tub, a fine bubble water generation unit configured to generate fine bubble water containing fine bubbles, and water supply controller configured to control supply of the fine bubble water into the water tub. The water supply controller changes a supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub based on an operation course.

1 : A washing machine comprising:
 a water tub,   a fine bubble water generation unit configured to generate fine bubble water containing fine bubbles; and   water supply control means configured to control supply of the fine bubble water into the water tub, wherein   the water supply control means changes a supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub based on an operation course.   
     
     
         2 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the water supply control means changes concentration of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub based on the operation course. 
     
     
         3 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the water supply control means is capable of supplying normal water not containing the fine bubbles into the water tub, and changes a supply ratio of the fine bubble water and water other than the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub based on the operation course. 
     
     
         4 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the water supply control means includes an operation course in which the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub is made larger than a predetermined amount and a supply time during which the fine bubble water is supplied into the water tub is made shorter than a predetermined time. 
     
     
         5 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the water supply control means includes an operation course in which the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub is made smaller than a predetermined amount and a supply time during which the fine bubble water is supplied into the water tub is made longer than a predetermined time. 
     
     
         6 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the water supply control means includes an operation course in which high-concentration fine bubble water having concentration of the fine bubbles contained in the fine bubble water higher than predetermined concentration is supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         7 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the water supply control means changes the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub based on an operation process. 
     
     
         8 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising temperature detection means configured to detect a temperature of outside air or water, wherein
 the water supply control means increases the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub, based on the temperature detected by the temperature detection means.   
     
     
         9 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising temperature detection means configured to detect a temperature of outside air or water, wherein
 the water supply control means reduces the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub, based on the temperature detected by the temperature detection means.   
     
     
         10 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein in a case of performing a high-temperature water course in which water at a temperature higher than a predetermined temperature is supplied into the water tub, the water supply control means increases the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         11 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein in a case of performing a high-temperature water course in which water at a temperature higher than a predetermined temperature is supplied into the water tub, the water supply control means reduces the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         12 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein in a case where strength of water flow generated in the water in the water tub is adjusted or in a case where an operation time is adjusted, the water supply control means increases the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         13 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , wherein in a case where strength of water flow generated in water in the water tub is adjusted or in a case where an operation time is adjusted, the water supply control means reduces the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         14 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising supply amount setting means configured to set the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         15 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising operation time adjustment means configured to lengthen an operation time based on the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub. 
     
     
         16 : The washing machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising operation time adjustment means configured to shorten an operation time based on the supply amount of the fine bubble water to be supplied into the water tub.
