The gimbal ring is a round ring structure. A water input port (2) is disposed on an inner circumference of the gimbal ring, so that water can enter the gimbal ring to function as equilibrium liquid to balance a load offset, and at least one water drainage port (8) that can be opened and closed is disposed on an outer circumference of the gimbal ring; or the inside of the gimbal ring is a hollow cavity, and the washing machine is also provided with a water input structure and a water drainage structure, the water input structure being used for inputting water to the hollow cavity to balance a load offset, and the water drainage structure being used for draining away water in the gimbal ring. The inside of the gimbal ring has no fixed fillings, which can reduce the weight of the gimbal ring. When the washing machine works, the washing machine does not need to drive the fillings in the gimbal ring to rotate, which reduces power consumption. A proper amount of water is input according to the measured load offset, which solves a problem that the amount of the fillings inside the gimbal ring of an ordinary washing machine cannot be changed, thereby accurately controlling the balance, reducing the distribution times, and shortening the dehydration time.

Description

BACKGROUND

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of washing machines, and in particular, to a washing machine and a control method of same.

Related Art

[0002] An existing washing machine mostly uses a sealed gimbal ring, and filler therein uses liquid or substances such as a steel ball and a steel ingot, which is filled in a cavity of the gimbal ring. When the washing machine performs dehydration at a high speed, according to a vibration point, the filler that can move in the cavity of the gimbal ring will automatically slide to a position eccentrically symmetric to the load of the washing machine, thereby reducing the overall eccentricity and reducing the vibration noise. The eccentricity distributed during each work of the washing machine differs, especially when loads having a large water absorption capability, such as cotton-padded clothes, are dehydrated, the gimbal ring having fixed filler cannot completely balance the eccentric mass. Meanwhile, when less loads or clothes having a small water absorption capability are dehydrated, the eccentricity is small, and the quantity of the filler in the gimbal ring will have a negative effect on the vibration during low-speed rotation or distribution and eccentricity calculation, which greatly affects the eccentric effect.

[0003] The existing washing machine uses the movement of the filler in the gimbal ring to balance the eccentricity, the internal filler is sealed inside the gimbal ring, and the internal filler is liquid or substances such as steel balls or steel ingots, so that it is required that the leakproofness of the gimbal ring is rather high. The service life of a washing machine is up to dozens of years, and the requirements on the manufacturing process of the gimbal ring are high; therefore, the cost is high, and the production efficiency is relatively low. Moreover, the weight of the gimbal ring together with the filler therein is very large, which brings some difficulties in assembling of the washing machine.

[0004] The patent invention with the application No. 200910158225.9 disclosed a gimbal ring device for a roller washing machine, the gimbal ring device includes at least two annular chambers which are coaxial with a roller and disposed at an edge of the roller, where at least one chamber is a spherical gimbal ring provided with a ball, and at least one chamber is a liquid gimbal ring provided with a flowing liquid; by using the two different counterweights, that is, the ball and the liquid, at least two balance forces having different reaction speeds are generated respectively, thereby improving the balance state of rotation of the roller of the washing machine during dehydration. When the rotation speed is lower than a resonance point of the roller and the outer cylinder, the liquid gimbal ring absorbs the vibration; when the rotation speed is stabilized with the resonance point, the spherical gimbal ring exerts the high vibration absorption performance to absorb the vibration of the outer cylinder; for the eccentricity exceeding the total amount of the spherical gimbal ring, the liquid gimbal ring is used to absorb the vibration. The gimbal ring device can inhibit the vibration amplitude of the outer cylinder when it is started and it rotates stably, thereby implementing low vibration, low noise and low cost. However, in the above patent, once the gimbal ring is assembled to the washing machine, the mass of the internal counterweight is determined, and cannot be adjusted according to the load offset of the washing machine; moreover, in the working process of the washing machine, the counterweight inside the gimbal ring also needs to be driven to rotate, which wastes the driving energy consumption of the motor.

[0005] Therefore, the present invention is provided.

[0047] During the dehydration, the inner cylinder 1 rotates at a high speed, the centrifugal force generated by the rotation is greater than the resistance of the spring 10, so that the baffle 11 compresses the spring 10, and the baffle 11 closely attaches the inner wall of the gimbal ring to enclose the water drainage port 8; when the dehydration ends, the inner cylinder 1 gradually stops rotation, the centrifugal force gradually reduces along with the reduction of the speed, when the centrifugal force is less than the restoring force of the spring 10, the restoring force of the spring 10 resets the baffle 11, and the equilibrium liquid inside the gimbal ring is discharged through the water drainage port 8.

[0049] The water intake structure extends from the gimbal ring at the front end opening of the inner cylinder 1 to an inner cylinder shaft at the rear end of the inner cylinder 1 along an outer surface of a sidewall of the inner cylinder 1, and is in communication with a water intake end of the washing machine through the internal of the inner cylinder shaft; the drainage structure extends from the gimbal ring at the front end opening of the inner cylinder 1 to an inner cylinder shaft at the rear end of the inner cylinder 1 along an outer surface of a sidewall of the inner cylinder 1, and is in communication with a drainage end of the washing machine through the internal of the inner cylinder shaft.
