A washing and drying all-in-one machine and a control method therefor. The control method includes: when a washing and drying all-in-one machine enters a washing-drying linkage mode, measuring a remaining time of a washing program, and determining whether the remaining time is within a preset first time threshold value; and if so, a clothes dryer matching a drying program corresponding to the clothes and performing preheating, and after waiting for the washing program to end, the washed clothes being placed in the clothes dryer for drying. By the washing and drying all-in-one machine and the control method therefor, according to the remaining time of the washing program, the clothes dryer is started in advance to execute a drying program and is preheated, such that the entire washing-drying time consumption of the clothes is shortened, thereby improving the user experience, and meeting the increasing intelligent requirements of users.

A driving system having a hollow shaft, a solid shaft arranged in the hollow shaft, a stator, a rotor connected to the hollow shaft, a clutch mechanism selectively engaged to one of the stator and the rotor, and a speed reduction mechanism having a planetary carrier assembly engaged to the clutch mechanism, and a planetary gear train connected between the solid shaft and the rotor, wherein where the clutch mechanism is engaged to the stator in a transmission manner, the planetary carrier assembly is connected with the stator, and the rotor drives the solid shaft and the hollow shaft to operate at a differential speed, and where the clutch mechanism is engaged to the rotor in the transmission manner, the planetary carrier assembly is connected with the rotor, and the rotor drives the solid shaft and the hollow shaft to operate at a same speed by the planetary gear train.

A washing machine is disclosed. The washing machine includes: a driving unit configured to rotate a washing tub; a turbidity sensor configured to sense a turbidity of water inside the washing tub; and one or more processors configured to: identify a weight of laundry contained in the washing tub when a user instruction for operating the washing machine is received; identify a saving mode as an operation mode based on a number of minor contaminations identified being equal to or greater than a predetermined number based on a contamination level identification history; identify a normal mode as the operation mode based on the number of minor contaminations identified being smaller than the predetermined number; initiate a washing process based on the weight in the identified operation mode; identify a level of contamination inside the washing tub based on the turbidity of water sensed by the turbidity sensor when a predetermined time elapses after the washing process is initiated; and identify whether to terminate the washing process based on the identified level of contamination.

A combination washer/dryer appliance may include a cabinet, a tub, a laundry basket, a heater, and a controller. The laundry basket may be rotatably mounted within the tub and define a chamber for receipt of articles for washing or drying. The controller may be operably coupled to the heater and configured to initiate a wash/dry operation. The wash/dry operation may include initiating a wash/dry operation for articles within the laundry basket. The wash/dry operation may include a wash cycle and a dry cycle. The wash/dry operation may further include determining completion of the wash cycle and directing a tumble cycle of the laundry basket in response to determining completion of the wash cycle. The wash/dry operation may still further include determining a user drying preference during the tumble cycle of the laundry basket and adjusting the wash/dry operation based on the determined user drying preference.
