Investigation of operation factors in the self-balancing device of the washing machine in resonance zone

The paper objective is to solve the issues related to the increase of reliability, profitability, and safety of modern washing machines on the basis of decrease in dynamic loads under whizzing. The principles of forming operation factors in the liquid self-balancing device (SBD) with the displaced fluid (on which design a number of patents are received) when passing a resonance zone under whizzing are considered. A comparative analysis of the SBD function implementation for the conditions of forming an adequate force response to the force input for two earlier established most rational conditions: for the force generated by resonance, and if reached the maximum unbalanced force, is carried out. The dependences of the SBD internal capacity traverse on the design factors of the SBD and the cleaning unit suspension system, and also on the operation parameters of the extraction process, are obtained. The research results are submitted in diagrams. The results analysis allows drawing the conclusions on the obtained data application perspectiveness to ensure maximum efficiency of the process of balancing irregular masses of textiles in the drum during the whizzing cycle.
