Washing
machines
Let’s look inside one of
today’s fully automatic washing machines that use
swirling water to
clean the clothes.
There are many types of washing machines but this
Figure shows you what most
of them are
basically made up of.
。
The reason why
a washing machine like this can wash and get the
water out of the clothes at
the same
time is because it has a double layer drum. When
washing and rinsing, the pulsator spins
and makes the water swirl.. To get the
water out of the clothes, the inner wall f the
drum spins and
the water goes through
the holes.
These days, the
“centrifugal force washing machines” are quite
popular. This type of machine
does not
use a pulsator. Instead, the inner wall spins
really quickly. When the drum spins, the dirty
clothes get stuck to the wall. The
water and detergent also try to escape through the
holes of the
wall but before they do
so, they are forced to escape through the clothes.
When this happens, the
power of the
water and detergent removes the dirt form the
clothes. Another good thing about this
type of machine is that clothes don’t
get tangled up so you don’t have to worry about
your clothes
getting ripped or damaged.
Next, let’s look at some
different types of washing machines!
Many of you probably think
that the water inside washing machines goes round
and round.
Actually, different washing
machines make water flow in different ways.
Whirlpool type:
This
type
of
washing
machine
uses
a
pulsator
to
force
the
water
to
move
like
a
whirlpool
inside the Drum. The spinning water
forces the dirt out form the clothes inside the
machine. Some
of
the
newer
models
of
this
type
also
make
the
whirlpool
move
up
and
down
to
make
it
clean
clothes even better!
Agitator stirring type
This type of washing machine has
something that looks like a propeller at the
bottom of the tub.

This
Propeller spins around and stirs the water. The
water then forces the dirt out from the clothes in
the machine. The good thing about this
type of machine is that clothes do not
get tangled up and
clothes
get evenly washed.
Drum
type:
This type of machine
has a drum with many holes in it. There are also
protrusions bumps on
the wall of the
drum.
As the drum
turns, the
clothes are picked up by the protrusions. When the
clothes fall down from the top of the
drum through the water, the movement removes dirt
from the
clothes.
Centrifugal force type:
As we have said before, the spinning
drum pushes the water and detergent out through
the wall
of the inner drum. The power
that comes form spinning the drum is called
centrifugal force., which
is where the
name comes from.
The water is forced through the clothes
and then the holes in the
inner wall.
After one cycle, the water is recycled back into
the tank and the process starts again.
This cycle is what cleans the clothes!
In Japan, people first
started using machines in 1930. But then the price
of a washing machine
was so high that
most average persons could not buy one for their
homes.
Looking back now,
there was something strange and funny on some of
the first versions of the
washing
machine .The
machine
had
two
rollers
that
were
used
to
sandwich
each
shirt
and
other
clothes to squeeze the water out of
them. The rollers were turned by hand, and in
fact, you needed a
lot of strength to
turn those things! Still, people then thought it
was a really neat invention! This
type
of
water
squeezer
was
used
for
almost
30
years
until
something
new
came
along.
The
spin
drier
that used “centrifugal force” to get most of the
water
is out of the clothes.
In 1953, the nozzle type
washing machine was first sold in Japan. This
washing machine is like
the older
brother of the swirling washing machine that you
see today. The price of these washing
machines
was
lower
and
because
of
this,
more
people
bought
them.
The
first
fully
automatic
washing machine was introduced in 1968,
and after that, washing clothes became a lot
easier to do!
There are a
lot of different types of washing machines. What
kind of washing machine do you
have in
your house?
Fully automatic:
The
fully
automatic
machine
has
two
drum
layers
that
wash,
rinse
and
remove
water
from
clothes
together.
All
you
have
to
do
is
add
detergent
and
put
in
dirty
clothes
and
then
washing
machine will do the
rest. There is also a new type of fully automatic
washing machine that can dry
clothes
after they have been washed.
Twin tub:

This
washing
machine
has
one
part
that
dose
the
washing
and
another
part
that
does
the
squeezing. Even though it’s a hassle to
take the clothes out and move them to
othe
r tub, the good
thing is
that you can wash and squeeze at the same time
with one machine.
Front
loading:
The main feature
of front loaders is that they use a lot less water
than other types. This is the
type of
Washing machine that dry cleaners use but a lot of
people in western countries have this
type of washing machine in their homes
too.
Let’s try to make the
best washing machine in the world!
We
should
already
thank
the
scientists
that
invented
the
fully
automatic
washing
machine
because it makes washing clothes a
piece of cake.
Scientists
are still trying really hard to find ways to make
washing machines a lot handier to
use
for everyone. Some of the things that they are
trying to do are to find better ways of making
clothes clean and ways to make washing
machines last longer. There are washing machines
with d
trying
function
today
so
you
don’t
even
have
to
hang
clothes
after
words
because
it
dries
them
automatically! Amazing!
Scientists are also trying
to find ways to use less water and less detergent
in washing machines
at present. This is
because that it is better to use less water for
preserving the environment.
What
are
washing
machines
of
the
future
going
to
be
like?
Maybe
there
will
be
a
washing
machine
that dries and folds your clothes after washing
them, or maybe there will be one that will
wash your clothes while you are still
wearing them! How handy would that be! Remember,
if the
first washing machine was like a
dream to people in the old days, all the dreams
you have about
washing
machines of the future may come true!
Now, washing machine is becoming more
and more popular. We see the main classification.
Washing machine can be divided into
automatic type and semi-automatic type two kinds,
