Abstract (en)
[origin: EP4219820A1] A washing machine and a control method thereof are provided. The washing machine includes: a housing (1); an inner drum (5) arranged in the housing (1) and provided with a washing chamber individually holding washing water; a detection member (7) arranged on the inner drum (5),.The position of the detection member (7) is raised/lowered as the water level is raised/lowered, and a sensing device (8) correspondingly detects a change in the position of the detection member (7). The control method includes: positioning the inner drum (5) to a position where the detection member (7) is corresponding to the sensing member (8) during feeding water in the washing machine, and obtaining the water level inside the inner drum (5) by detecting the position of the detection member (7) via the sensing member (8) by the washing machine. The control method of the washing machine enables water level detection of the holeless inner drum by controlling the positioning of the inner drum (5) during the water feeding process in conjunction with the water level detection device, the water level detection is accurate, simple, effective, and reliable.
