Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3428339A1] A washing machine according to the present disclosure includes: an outer tank elastically supported in a chassis; a washing tub rotatably provided in the outer tank; a motor that rotationally drives the washing tub; a centrifugal separator that centrifugally separates foreign substances contained in washing water in the outer tank; a water supply passage that returns the washing water in the outer tank into the outer tank through the centrifugal separator; a pump that circulates the washing water in the outer tank through the centrifugal separator provided on the water supply passage; and a controller that performs a washing operation by sequentially controlling each of a washing step, a rinsing step, and a spin-drying step. In the washing step, the controller causes the centrifugal separator to start centrifugal separation after hardness of washing water in the outer tank has decreased.
