The present invention relates to a washing machine and a spin-drying control method for the same, the washing machine including an inner tub, a drain pump, a motor and a control unit that controls the drain pump and the motor and carries out a spin-drying cycle including a sub spin-drying cycle and a main spin-drying cycle. The control unit changes a preset rotation time of the inner tub in the main spin-drying cycle according to the rotation speed of the inner tub during the sub spin-drying cycle, or determines whether to change the spin-drying time of the main spin-drying cycle according to a current value of the drain pump during the main spin-drying cycle, thereby improving spin-drying efficiency.

An impeller pump for a dishwasher has a pump housing comprising a pump upper portion, pump lower portion and pump outer wall in which a pump chamber is arranged. It has a pump inlet into the pump housing and a pump outlet out of the pump housing and a heating device, which forms the pump outer wall, and a pump drive having a drive rotor, a drive stator having a stator winding and a bearing shaft. The bearing shaft is fixedly arranged on the pump housing and the drive rotor is fixedly connected to the drive rotor and they are rotatably arranged on the bearing shaft. The stator winding is arranged on a region of the pump lower portion which adjoins the pump chamber at the other side thereof in an outward radial direction so that between the pump chamber and stator winding only one wall of the pump lower portion extends so that the stator winding is surrounded by the pump chamber in an annular manner. It can thus be effectively cooled by water in the pump chamber.

A washing machine includes a casing, a tub, a drum, a pump, a gasket that is arranged between a case opening and a tub opening and that includes first nozzles and second nozzles, and a water pipe assembly that includes: first nozzle ports affixed to the first nozzles, second nozzle ports affixed to the second nozzles, a first conduit, and a second conduit. The gasket further includes port insertion pipes into which the first and second nozzle ports are inserted. Each of the first and second nozzle ports includes at least one press-fit protrusion that is formed on an outer circumferential surface of the nozzle supply port and that is configured to, in a state in which the nozzle supply port is inserted into a corresponding port insertion pipe, maintain contact with an inner circumferential surface of the port insertion pipe.

A method of controlling a washing machine that includes a drum rotatably provided in a tub that receives water, at least one nozzle spraying water into the drum, a washing motor rotating the drum, and a circulation pump circulating water within the washing machine, the method including: operating the washing motor to rotate the drum in a first rotational direction while repeatedly alternating between an acceleration and a deceleration of the drum so that laundry in the drum alternates between maintaining contact with an inner surface of the drum during acceleration, and separates from the inner surface of the drum during deceleration; and operating a circulation pump motor in the circulation pump, while the drum rotates in the first rotational direction, to accelerate a pump speed of the circulation pump during the acceleration of the drum, and to decelerate the pump speed during deceleration of the drum.

A washing machine includes a casing, a tub, a drum, a pump, a gasket that is arranged between a case opening and a tub opening and that includes first nozzles and second nozzles, and a water pipe assembly that includes: first nozzle ports affixed to the first nozzles, second nozzle ports affixed to the second nozzles, a first conduit, and a second conduit. The gasket further includes port insertion pipes into which the first and second nozzle ports inserted.

A washing machine according to an aspect of the disclosure includes: a tub; a drum rotatably provided inside the tub; a heater configured to heat water; a circulating pump configured to circulate a part of the water stored in the tub; a water level sensor configured to sense a water level of water in the tub; and a controller configured to control the circulating pump to circulate the part of the water stored in the tub, and control revolutions per minute (rpm) of a motor of the circulating pump based on a water level of the water while the water stored in the tub circulates and the heater is driven.

A water reuse system and controller for controlling water levels, temperature, and quality in the rinse water reuse system and methods of using the same, in order to optimize water usage. More particularly, the application pertains to a controller and methods of using the controller to regulate water levels and water quality in a water reuse system. As part of detailing the controller and methods of using the same, an apparatus for a water reuse system is also provided.

A laundry treating appliance includes a treating chamber provided for receiving laundry for treatment, a controller having a memory in which is stored a set of executable instructions including a set of cycles of operations. The laundry treating appliance also includes a user interface operably coupled with the controller and having a touchscreen configured to provide an input and output function for the controller.

A water transmission device and a washing machine including the same. The washing machine includes a water transmission device configured to discharge water in a washing tub, wherein the water transmission device includes a filter case which is disposed under the washing tub and accommodates a filter, and into which the water in the washing tub is introduced, a pump case connected to the filter case and accommodating an impeller configured to suction the water in the filter case and discharge, a motor configured to rotate the impeller, a suction hole through which a side portion of the pump case facing a center of the impeller and a side portion of the filter case, and an outlet which is open downward from a lowest end inside the pump case and communicates with a water discharge pipeline.

A laundry processing apparatus includes a wall defining a condensed water collecting space configured to collect condensed water. The wall has an opening hole that is open to communicate with an inside of a cabinet of the laundry processing apparatus and that is configured to open and close by an opening and closing unit. Therefore, when the laundry processing apparatus is not operated, the condensed water remaining in the condensed water collecting space is quickly removed by air inside the cabinet, and during drying operation or drainage operation, the opening hole is closed by the opening and closing unit, pressure leakage is prevented for a space where air flows or a space where the condensed water is pumped.
