Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0279483A2] To reduce the mechanical stress of wool during washing, it is known, during a washing cycle, to provide longer intervals and changes of direction of rotation between successive drum movements of constant speed and, for a further reduction of the mechanical stress, to cause the drum to rotate at a constant speed of approximately 35 revolutions per minute intended specifically for this. The new method makes it possible to wash with a low degree of wool shrinkage and with low residual deformation, in which the movement times (1, 1') are always very short and are coordinated with the starting of the drum drive by means of a ramp (3), so that a drum speed of approximately 45 revolutions per minute is not exceeded. The method allows a careful washing of wool in drum-type washing machines. <IMAGE>
