Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2511411A1] A method for intensifying the activation of detergent in laundry in a washing machine (2), during the stage in which the detergent is introduced into the drum (3) while the latter rotates in the washing tub (1) of the machine at a speed V causing the laundry to be at least partially distributed within the drum (3), comprising the introduction into the tub (1) of a specified quantity of liquid for dissolving the detergent and the recirculation of this quantity of washing liquid with detergent by drawing the liquid from the tub (1) and subsequently introducing it so that it passes through the laundry, the recirculation taking place for a period T. The rotation of the drum (3) with the laundry comprises at least one stage at a speed of V1 ‰¥ KV for a period t which is less than T, wherein K is a multiplication factor, which may or may not be an integer, in the range from 2 to 4, including the extreme values.
