Technical fieldL. The present invention relates to a novel apparatus and method for washing fabrics using small amounts of water and energy without significant soil deposition.

This results in a higher level of non-polluting performance.

The present invention further relates to a novel apparatus and method for washing uneven loads of fabric, including dissimilar fiber types and colors without significant color transfer from one fabric to another.

The present invention further relates to a new liquid wash and non-contaminant composition for use in said apparatus and method.

aPAR2? 2? 2i: L4_Legative_This_06 / HS * The standard method of fabric washing in an automatic washer of the type used in a home in the USA is carried out in a type of washer which fills either the bottom or the bottom of the machine. The machine that fills the top of the washing basket rotates about a predominantly axial axis and the type of machine that fills the front of the wash basket rotates about a predominantly horizontal axis. Laundromats that are full On the top are, by far, the most popular, including about $ 90 of the US Automatic Laundry Market.

The laundry method of a laundry that is filled at the top begins by placing the laundry inside the laundry basket. * The detergent composition is then added to the wash basket. Finally, the water type is typically heated, the wash basket is added to form a detergent and water solution known as a washing liquid. of fabrics. The washing step is then completed by applying a Mechanical Shake system for loosening and removing dirt from the fabrics. * The temperature and type of water and the level of the detergent composition or where the stage is used. % of the washing steps use hot water (typically around 35 ° C) with the difference being split evenly between hot water (typically around cold water (typically around 15 ° C). level of the detergent composition he used

The stage typically varies from about 40 liters to about 90 liters and from 20 grams to about 145 grams respectively depending on the size of the wash basin and the size of the load. * The resulting detergent concentration is approximately 210 wt. per million to about 3,6000 ppm.

The wash laundry is then cooled and the fabrics are washed. The laundry step normally involves adding fresh water to the laundry basket. Mechanical resting is normally applied during the wash step to remove foul or non-fouling composition from the fabrics. Eventually the water is channeled and the fabrics are mechanically rotated to remove as much water as possible. Rinse with cold water is used at about 60 ° C of the washing steps, with the difference being with warm flushing water.,The amount of water used in this step is typically either "used" or used in the wash step. rinsing is generally repeated one or more times.

The washing cycle of the home washer is very similar to that of the top washer. The water temperature and the concentration of the detergent composition used in the same type of washing step are similar.

* The key difference is that the amount of water used in each of the washing and rinsing steps typically ranges from about 25 liters to about 35 liters, and so the level of detergent composition is about 10 g to about 70 grams.

* The full standard automatic top washing methods.

Typically, a home type typically uses approximately 1% of the home / ** - · · / /

up to about 265 liters of water. In contrast, the domestic type of anterior filling, most efficiently, typically uses about 90 liters of water. Solvent is also a significant water expense during a wash cycle. Also if water is heated, there is a significant energy expense. Both water and energy cost the consumer.

A known disadvantage of normally occurring in the prior type of typical automatic washing methods is that there is soil deposition at both the washing and washing stages. Soil re-deposition is a dirt that is detached from the fabric and goes into the wash or wash fluid and then deposited on the fabric. Thus, soil re-deposition restricts11 net 'of the whole body.

with color time "l n,,. r - fabric in the liquid wash Another known disadvantage normally presented by the typical laundry techniques of the foregoing is that color transfer may occur with handling loads of different color.

is a color adhesion to or from the following deposition on another fabric.

In order to avoid color transfer, the consumer has found it necessary to perform the additional stage of pre-reclassification of fabrics, not only by type of fabric but also by type of color.

USP 4,344,19th granted to AREIiBE, et al., August 17, 1962, claims a method of fabric washing by means of a wash cycle and a washing machine with a horizontal, perforated, guided bushing rotates around an intact region in which it is perpendicular. washing and rinsing cycle as the rotation is rotated. , the clothes repeatedly get up and fall on a track5 '. *; ·. · * · ♦ .. »♦ · '· •: '2, ··?·· ·’ -*

Under ARENDT, its improvement involves the wetting stages of the clothes with a quantity of soap or any "baking powder". coherence of the clothes by filling the soap bin until the level of the soap has not substantially risen above the effective area of the bucket; preserves inside the bucket during the washing of an aqueous medium of at least about 5% dry clothes are loaded individually inside the bucket which rotates at any speed or in the case of the bucket is 0.3-0.8 g. Bucket speed is then increased to 1 g. then gradually change in rotation speed and after rotation decrease in velocity or maintain at loading speed. The process is then followed by a wash cycle which is similar to the wash cycle between each other. The medium is accelerated not so much by filtration but by mechanical action of the tube. Finally, AREKDT teaches that water is saved for the most part not by using smaller ratios of total media, but by reducing the number of wash cycles and washings.

USP 4,118,189 granted to RSILWALD and associates on October 3, 1978 discloses a washing method or consisting of transporting a concentrated wash fluid by the introduction of compressed air into the body.T.lamellae are mechanically shaken within the foam on the Lachellaris X. / <\ \ seconds then the foam is destroyed- removable fabrics by rotating the fabrics in a peristotope *n- ·---3

perforated drum. This cycle is repeated at least 5 times followed by standard washing. * REIKAID proposes that the contaminant detached from the material of the fabric and dispersed in a relatively highly concentrated detergent solution is partially deposited again on the fabric fiber during the subsequent wash after one wash.

* Another attempt at using more concentrated wash fluid without encountering the deposition problems of the type discussed in the aforementioned patent issued by RSIRWALD is disclosed at US $ 21,667 or USP 3,650. * HEI'PM discloses a method and apparatus for washing fabrics using an amount of water corresponding to about 50% to 150% of the dry weight of the fabric. The method consists of placing such amounts of wood on the fabrics to be washed and a transfer agent, for example polyethylene foam having a large surface area per mass unit, a rotating case similar to that used and dumping these materials together for a period of time. Dirt removed from the fabrics by the resin action is distributed over the exposed exposed areas of the fabrics and the transfer agent, which is then partitioned from the fabrics.Therefore, The fabrics are cleansed of the dirt that is distributed over the transmitter. * E5KER admits that a certain amount of dirt will remain on the fabrics but teaches that it will be significantly reduced by the size of the material. ZVTT ZV ZA Z? It will be distributed and dispensed without leaving an unacceptable concentration of pollutant. After the separation of paraffin.co.uk: Regardless of the pollutant removed, the fabrics are sewn into the same rotary pouch in which they are welded while there is warm air circulating through them.

USP 3,647,354 granted to LOEB on March 7, 1972, proposes that a method of forming such as disclosed in the aforementioned EHNER patent will be followed by a flushing process using a quantity of water. LOEB, The fabrics are rotated on a rotary drum with a net transfer agent which works in a manner similar to the transfer agent used in the washing process to separate and loosen the dirt from the fabrics. The great advantages allegedly afforded by the previous washing processes have not been widely accepted, especially in the home washing market. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a device and method for washing fabrics, using a small amount of water, thus minimizing dust repainting and color transfer, even without pre-sorting the present material. to provide an apparatus and method for washing fabrics or making good use of the detergent composition used; if excessive heat is exerted on the utility of the heat action. Another object of the invention is to provide a preferred apparatus and method for the washing of fabrics using cold water.

"It is a further object of the present invention to provide a method and apparatus for washing fabrics or for cleaning and preserving high quality fabrics over multiple washing cycles," of the present invention;

Preferred toner is the provision of a method and apparatus for washing fabrics which can be mechanically applied to fabrics that have been contacted with a concentrated wash cloth without causing any further lubrication. rinsing and detergent compositions for use with said apparatus and method.

* Revelation__2 £ _full £> έωω ^L.The present invention encompasses a method and apparatus for washing fabrics based on the use of quantities of aqueous washes in the washing step, varying at least just enough to distribute them in a uniform manner. up to 5 times more than the dry weight of the gloves. This results in an extremely inefficient use of a detergent composition. Almost all of the laundry detergent, and therefore any or all of the detergent composition contained in the laundry detergent, will be in direct contact with the fabrics immediately afterwards. Therefore, the irreversible composition can adequately and ineffectively interact with the formula. This step is critical to the method. As a consequence, a higher level of cleaning function is achieved. , especially with lower amounts of wash water, it is important that the wash fluid be distributed uniformly over the fabric. In a preferred embodiment above, the amount of the washing liquid is such that there is no or minimal amount of washing in excess of the absorption capacity of the washers and preferably the washing. approximately twice the dry weight of the fabrics. In the final method of fabrication, the fabrics are washed with water to remove the fabric.

at the same time and dirt and or detergent composition. "A typical rinse cycle of the front or top filler of the type of home is effective for the purpose, other than washing may be supplemented by reduced amounts of water. While the method is particularly advantageous when carried out in a household-type laundry including mixed types and colors of fabrics, the method may also be advantageously employed on an industrial scale.

The present invention further comprises liquid wash compositions and detergent compositions for use in said apparatus and method.

Fig. I discloses a schematic illustration of the specially preferred apparatus for carrying out a washing process according to the present invention. Figure I discloses a preferred embodiment of an IC filling machine of the present invention. The apparatus of Figure I is particularly preferred when or the amount of wet wash used is generally about 2 to 2 times the dry weight of the fabric being washed. Such a maximum amount of washing liquid approximates the maximum capacity of a washing load medium. Transparency, none of the details of the cabin or the entry door are shown in Figure I.

In the embodiment of the drone I, the washing machine 10 comprises a fixed drum 15 of generally cylindrical construction and having a horizontal opening aperture 20. The centerline of the cylindrical fixed drum 15 is converged with a rotating axis 40 at a rotational angle of 300 prior art as a laundry basket) suspended within the fixed drum 15. As shown more clearly in the cross-sectional views of Figures 2 and 3, the fixed drum 15 comprises a peripheral wall 16, a rear wall 17 secured to one end of the peripheral wall, an anterior wall secured to the opposite wall, any anterior wall having a tubular extension 19 having an inlet opening 20 used to load: i;

"When the washing machine IC is in operation, the inlet port of the washing machine 220 is in the closed position of Fig. 2 and forms a watertight seal against the outer portion of the folding sealing housing 20. These latter elements are illustrated only in cross-section image 2 to ensure maximum clarity without the remaining shapes. The lower portion of the fixed drum 15 is provided with a text-based connection 21 to the peripheral wall 16. The composition 21 is connected by a flexible connection line 142 to the suction side of a liquid washer pump 140 which is secured by means of a support 141 at the base of the washer chamber (not shown in Fig. 14). discharged from pump 140 into a drainage duct (not shown).

As can be seen from Figures I and 2, the fixed drum 15 is supported by four suspension springs 66 which are connected to one end to anchors 65 securely to the upper part of the fixed drum 15 and to the other end 15 67 which are provided in the laundry chamber (not shown). Extending from the lower portion of the peripheral wall 16 are four trusses 70, the lower ends of which are secured by metric bundlespFor movement restriction 71, "A vertical guide disk 72 passes between the two rows of motion limiting beams 71. There is sufficient open space between the motion limiting beams 71 and the outer bevel 72". at the bottom of the laundry chamber (not shown), and

fixed drum 15 may be eliminated on the upper and lower sides of the side-opening movement inlet opening 20 and tubular extension 19 remain sealed with a folding seal housing 210 or elastically-wrapped 15. occurring during uneven loading times in the laundry chamber (not shown). Formed drum 15 is a movable drum 40 comprising a perforated peripheral wall 41, a non-perforated rear wall 42 secured to one end, said peripheral wall 43 and one peripheral wall . Extending from the front wall 43 of the moving drum 40 is a tubular extension 44 or ending in an opening aperture 45 which is centrally aligned with the opening aperture 15 or 20. * Out of the inner periphery of the peripheral wall 41 are three rectangular bases 47 of mainly triangular cross-section. The lower end of the 4S side walls of the triangular valves 47 preferably have an end 49. In a particularly preferred embodiment, each of the valves is symmetrically shaped around a radially extending line or derived from the rotation axis 300 by a moving drum 40 and passing through its height. This allows rotation of the moving drum 40 in opposite directions with an equal effect of rectification on the side objects.

In an exemplary embodiment of a laundry machine of the invention, the moving drum 40 measured two feet, 21 feet (54.6 cm) at about 12 depth (3O, 5) t! ).-I '^ / o ^ • \,' L: 7 j. * triangular upright valves 47 had a base ^ "7 VV ** 7 (5.1 cm) wide by 9 ”(22.9 CM) deep, approx. I (2.5 ¢ 11) wide by 7 (7.8 CM) wide. The inner moving drum 40 exhibited about 750 uniformly. Absolute perforations 46 where each perforation had a diameter of about 1/4 (0.635 cm). The fixed drum 15 of said aforementioned movable drum 40 measured approximately 24 (6l cm).

As will be apparent From an inspection of Fig. 2, the moving drum 4 is rotatably secured to a fixed drum 15 by means of the guiding axle 29. The inner edge of the guiding shaft 29 incorporates a whole flange 30 or is secured by means of a flange accompanying 31 and a plurality of ties, such as nails 32, to the rear wall 42 of the driving drum 29, double-clearing, 51 in the rear wall 42 of the movable drum 40 and supported by a pair of bearings 25 secured in the rear wall 17 of the fixed drum 15. wall 17 of typically standard anchors, such as nails 33. The axial portion of the steering axis passes through a clearing hole 26 in the rear wall 17 of the fixed drum 15.

* Power to rotate the movable drum 40 is transferred to the outer portion of the steering shaft 29 either through an eccentrically adjusted steering pulley 29 or through a concentrically adjusted steering pulley 34 which both have a fixed shaft axis 29. As will be explained in detail later on, or eccentrically adjusted steering pulley L; used for varying or rotational speed of the drive, any drum 40 downstream of the drum, laterally or centrally adjusted steering pulley 34 is used for driving. mobile drum 40 constant speed of rotation each rotation.

The mobile & drum guidance system 40 preferably comprises a die-casting guidance motor 60 secured by the support 6ΐ; peripheral wall 16 of the fixed drum 15. Because the drive motor 60 is secured to the fixed drum 15, any movement of the fixed drum 15 does not affect the rotational speed of the moving drum 40.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the drive motor 60 is not only geared but is also reversible so that the rotating drum 40 can rotate in a straight direction at first direction. It is believed that reversing the direction of rotation of the drum sometimes during the washing cycle will be more uniform application of washing liquor, more reshaping and more resonant transfer of heat to more fabrics, and thus more efficient cleaning.

In the embodiment of the exemplary washer described hereinbefore, or the eccentrically mounted guide pulley 28 was used to provide rotation of the moving drum 40 at a speed of about one minute or about 48 minutes to about 60 degrees. the centrally mounted pulley system including the pulleys was simulated to provide rotation of the movable type ^^ p ^ '' ^ constant speed of about 544 revolutions per minute '*

* Referring again to the particularly preferred embodiment of ricin I, an air circulation 160 is indicated, preferably the centrifugal variant, secured by means of a circular housing 162 having an upper portion 16 of said upper portion The air 160 is preferably powered by a variable speed guidance motor I6ΐ. "A connecting conduit 165 transfers air from the landing gear to heater 164. * Heater 164 comprises a heating element 165 in addition to conveying air from heater 164 to an inlet opening 180 of said circumference 15.

The sensing element 173 ds which is preferably of the thermistor type sends a signal to the temperature regulator 175, via signal transfer line 174.'0 Temperature regulator 175, whichever is preferably adjustable, transfers a point through point transfer line 176 to heater element 5a to heater 164, either to raise or lower or to reduce temperature The air introduced into the connecting pipe 166. Thus, the hot air used during the wash portion of the cycle is continuously recirculated through said closed loop system and its temperature constantly recorded and maintained at a predetermined level.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine can also be used as a clothes dryer. return air 172 and air duct 170 with return air duct 167. 'If air ducts 170 and J71 are six = - both air circulate, the result of the pre -. pushing the deflection valve 168 feet to its later position, which would convert the closed circulation re-circulation system 5 described earlier herein in combination with the wash cycle to a non-rotating system. In the heated mode, fresh air is drawn into the conduit 171 and coupled through the heater as previously provided to provide hot dry air for drying the washed fabrics contained in the mobile drum 40. Similarly. 15 is discharged to the atmosphere via the connecting pipe 170 rather than being re-circulated on the suction side of the air circulation bush 160. During the drying part of the cycle, the movable drum 40 rotates as during the wash cycle, with a steering motor 60 operating through the eccentrically adjusted pulley and guide belt system previously described hereinafter, a drying cycle is also recorded and controlled by a sensing element 173 and a temperature controller 175. * However, or the temperature selected during the drying cycle may differ from that used during the wash cycle. Accordingly, temperature regulator 175 preferably has two independently regulated series of points that are prone to varying temperature levels for the washing and drying cycles.

In particular, the wash liquid used during the cycle wash portion is prepared by the wash liquid tank 89 which is schematically illustrated in Figure I. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cycle is initiated by introducing a predetermined amount of a detergent composition, or which may be in a granular, gel or liquid form, within the reservoir 80 through a water wash line 89. pressure 81 of the connection line : of the valves 82.84 and 87 present in the side of the liquid washer tank; ____ 'n' * V t'X ** ··1 ·'.*»

Text within the water tank 89 is an Inner Level Sensor 92 which is connected to the Top end to a Level Sensor 91. The fluid level inserted into the rinse fluid reservoir rises along the catheter 92. When the fluid level within the fuel tank 89 reaches a predetermined point, the air level sensor 91 transmits a single point 93 105. The level controller 93 sends a point through the point transfer line 106 to close the control valve 82 .After the shut-off valve 82, or Pump 86 Begins to recirculate, mix and form a wash fluid in tank 89.

Until exhausted. a composition to be mainly soluble or dispersed in water. * The time required will of course vary, depending on such variations in the solubility characteristics of the particular Detergent composition used, the concentration of the Detergent composition, the water separation temperature and the like.

As will be explained in greater detail in accordance with the following description of this process, the present method of washing may be carried out without adding energy; by means of the heat element ΐ65. ' has now shown that it is generally preferred that the washing and rinsing liquids vary from about 25 ° C or higher to maximize the benefits provided by the present invention. To achieve this objective when the option of adding heat energy is not used during the wash cycle, a water preheating unit (not shown) can be used on the inlet or inlet line. it does not drop below about 25 ° C, even in cold weather.

As has been shown above, a relatively small amount of washing liquid is used during the present washing process when compared to prior art washing methods. Therefore, the method of applying the wet wash to the fabrics intended to be washed must be very effective to provide mainly smooth and full distribution, especially when very low amounts of wet wash are used. An especially preferred means of completing this object is to apply the wash liquid through a high pressure spray nozzle 100 as the drum rotates 40. During the application of the washing fluid the stage control valves 82 and 83 are closed and the control valves 84,85 and 87 are open. The washing fluid 230 is withdrawn from the reservoir 89 through a pump 86 through a pump 86 delivery 95 with a high pressure spray nozzle 100 which, in the embodiment shown, is adapted to the tubular extension tube 19 of the fixed drum 15

A small amount of washing liquid also allows fluid through. the j-valve 84 and the delivery line 96 96 in the rear; the zipper 89 to provide partial re-circulation and annealing; during the wet-wash cycle,

In order to distribute the gaskets mainly uniformly around the periphery of the moving drum 40, the fabrics are first bent at a low speed through an eccentrically adjusted guided pulley 26. The motor drivable 40 guided pulley 26 at a speed sufficient to hold the mainly uniformly distributed objects against the peripheral wall 41. The step of applying the wash fluid begins while the objects are assembled against the peripheral wall 41. However, after a few rotations of the movable drum 40, or the speed of the rotation of the drum, it is reduced by transferring the performance guiding power from the centrally-adjusted guided pulley 36 to the rear-wheel drive or camshaft 38. varies with each rotation of the mobile drum 40, forces the drum fabrics to be transported through the rectification pads at about 47 o'clock, where they tend to fall away from the peripheral wall 41 and pass through the main plane

at about position II of the watch, it will still pass through the liquid spray spray fan 230 upon returning to the bottom of the drum.

The step of applying the washing liquid is carried out until all or a predetermined amount of the washing liquid contained within the tank has been applied to the fabric, with the amount of the washing liquid being applied to each other, the amount of fabric to be washed, the materials to be manufactured, the type of dirt and the level of the amount of dirt, To be more fully described in the accompanying detailed description of the method. "When the step of applying the washing liquid is completed even with the smallest amounts of the washing liquid within the invention, the main washing liquid is then dispensed with. a method of washing the invention.

To further promote or distribute, the application of the washing liquid may be carried out in a few steps, with the mobile drum 40 being stopped momentarily and restarting between each stage to allow each item to be properly wash liquid. Similarly, multiple spray nozzles may be used.

The diameter tThe tip of the tip 450 is about 0.40 (1.02 CIO); the diameter of the diode 420 is about 0.125 (0.32 ° C) along its length, converging to an included angle β of about 120 ° adjacent to it cross-section of the nozzle 450. The cross-section of the groove 410 and the diode 420 produced the irregular shape 400 openings generally shown in Fig. The wash fluid was fed through a pump 66 having a graduated capacity of 500 gallons per hour at 7 PSI attached to an ICC hose in; of a 1/4 (0.035 01 / diameter line of flexible line 95.

Price is applied mechanically to the fabrics by rotation of the moving drum 40 at a relatively low speed such that the fabrics are continuously repaired for up to 47 secured inside the drum and thereby causing the machine to rotate. drifting practice is emphasized by the production of the rotating speed of the moving drum 40 z

This is complemented by the embodiment of the machine disclosed in the same guide mS for guiding the drum 40 by means of an eccentrically mounted, guide-mounted steering wheel 28. The moving drum 40 is sometimes reversed down the wash cycle. This provides more complete mechanical shuffling of fabrics and therefore more uniform heat transfer in both fabrics. In addition, it minimizes the tendency of fabrics, especially long fabrics, long and thin fabrics, e.g. to gather. * The heat action is preferably provided to the laundry fabrics during the aforementioned mechanical stirring process. In embodiment of the engine unveiled in Figure I, it is supplemented by recirculation of liquid air through heater 164 using a LC10 air handling probe.

The nozzle applied does not need to be used for washing liquids. Because free liquids are used in the moving drum 40 during the rinse portion of this washing cycle, it is believed that the particular type of application is most appropriate. how to apply the washing liquid. Accordingly, the washing liquid may be added by any means well known in the art, for example, directly into the fixed drum 15 through an opening in the peripheral wall 16.

Preferably fabrics are preferably unmixed or immobilized during the addition of the wash fluid and during the addition of the wash fluid and the wash cycle and the pre-wash cycle 40. relatively low speed via eccentrically adjusted driven pulley 28,X1-As with the mechanical action and phase of the washing cycle heat energy application, the direction of rotation of the moving drum 40 is preferably sometimes changed during the washing cycle to provide more uniformity.

Therefore centrifuging to remove as much moisture as possible from the washed and washed fabric is varied until the last wash cycle. As will be apparent from the inspection of Figures I and 2, the wash water removed from the mobile drum 40 is either gravitational or centrifuged 15 with the aid of the discharge pump 140 from which it is preferably transported to the sewer.

'If desired, prosthetic washes of various types, such as fabric softeners, may be used in conjunction with the washing method described herein.' If desired, such prostheses may be applied by gravity (not shown) or by spray nozzles 100. In the latter case, one or more secondary SO reservoirs may be used. * The discharge of these secondary tanks may be connected, via the line 98 and by the control valve 88, to the liquid wash system. Depending on the nature of the additive, Reserve 89 with water before inserting the additive no. This may be done by refilling the water and re-circulating the solution through the rain water X M, before discharging it within one hour. After flooding the tank 65 of the washing fluid, or control valve 86 may spring to permit delivery of an additive from the tank 90, the liquid washing tank via the pump 86. When a predetermined amount of the additive has been transferred to the wash tank, a water dilution cycle may, if desired, be carried out in a manner similar to that used for the unburned liquid, e.g. , the valves 82,85 and 83 are closed, and the solution of the additive is recirculated through the pump 66 to the liquid wash tank 69 until the additive is Ready for application to articles to be washed. Application of the mixed additive solution may thereafter be carried out during one or more of the washing cycles used in the present method in a generally similar manner. After centrifugation by rotating the drum at high speed 40 to remove as much of the washing liquid as possible from the washing machine 10 can be operated as a standard clothes dryer by activating the deflection valve 168 from its first position to its second position.

Another aspect of the present method comprises a method of fabric washing, hereinafter referred to as a compressed laundry method. The method uses amounts of an aqueous washing liquid at the washing step ranging at least from about sufficiently large portions to be thoroughly distributed. of fabrics up to about 5 times the dry weight of the fabrics which are to be washed, the amounts of the washing liquid being applied to the fabrics by the duration of the washing step. It is important that the washing liquid must be completely and evenly distributed over the fabrics. In the final step or steps of the process the fabrics are washed with water to remove dirt and / or contaminant composition.

The amounts of washing liquid which can be used in the washing step vary from, at least, about simply enough to be distributed evenly and evenly on all parts of the fabric, up to and including of fabrics to be washed. The quantities of washing liquid at the lower limit scale approximate that it is possible to apply directly to a standard level of a standard commercially available detergent composition for heavy duty adhesives, textiles or fabrics. and the detergent composition in such a washing liquid, or a concentration of the washing liquid, to remain constant, constant, or constant. , a higher level of overrun results in a non-mainstream and no less wasteful.

Positive removal should be noted as being dependent on the nature of the fabrics, the types of dirt, the levels of the dirt, the levels of the contaminant composition and the formations of the contaminants. washing which exceeds the adsorption capacity of the fabrics used, Only limited amounts of mechanical energy will have to be applied to the fabrics during the washing step to prevent hyper-soap. * But surprisingly a good level of cleaning is still achieved. Also, with amounts of scrubbing liquid which exceed the absorption capacity of the fabric, if possible, it is not important that the preferred device is used.

More Preferred Amounts of Washing Liquid So there are a number of preferred embodiments or amount of washing liquid or which can be used in the washing step, ranging from approx. in particular, no or minimal amounts of liquid water in excess of the absorption capacity of the fabrics. With these amounts, there are mainly minimal amounts of washing liquid, and therefore, mainly all or any detergent composite contained in the washing liquid, will be directly in contact with the fabrics throughout the washing step. This permits the application of significant mechanical stiffening application to the fabrics during the wash step as discussed below without any superabundance.

"Surprisingly, a variety of other benefits are obtained when the amounts of this laundry liquid of the most preferred incubator are ** C> X

7777 They are used, for example, mainly in slabs or in composites that are directly in contact with fabrics, or in pollutants;1 ”Synthesis is used excessively adequately. Equal X1 there is mainly no washing laundry so that the color of the fabrics will be released and then washed off. Thus, color transfer during the washing step is minimized, and therefore, it is generally not necessary for the consumer to select the fabrics in advance. This is especially important since the washing load actually contains the type . acetone which contains excessive amounts of highly soluble dyes. Another benefit is to add more washing fluid, i.e. adding both water and detergent composition to such washing liquid so that the concentration of the washing liquid remains constant, reaching approximately five times greater. fabrics provide minimal predetermined soil removal which may be at the cost of the non-polluting composition additive used.

In a more preferred embodiment, the amount of filling liquid or that can be used in the washing step is about just enough to be distributed mainly evenly and completely on the fabrics up to about 2%.g 2 times the dry weight of the fabrics and preferably from about 3/4 to about three times the dry weight of the fabrics. These scales provide the most inefficient use of a non-polluting composition. That is to say, at these scales for a given amount of detergent composition, there is either more or less soil removal and / or minimal soil re-exposure. Surprisingly, or the addition of more water by washing, ie. Thin wash dilution to overcome this upper limit results in less soil depletion. fabrics and more soil reconstitution. Also, the preferred limit is minimized or dyeing for touch is or color transfer by leaving left / right. directly in front of that other.

These preferred climates may also vary depending on the nature of the fabrics, the types of contaminants, the level of the contaminant in the level of the detergent composition, and the formulations of the detergent composition.

washing, especially when there is no free laundry laundry is such that it is distributed mainly fully and uniformly on the fabrics. That is, if the laundry laundry is not evenly distributed over most of the fabrics, then the non-treated portions will not be cleaned and / or the portions of the fabrics being treated more efficiently than clear spots appeared after performing the concentrated purification procedure.

It should be noted that such a distribution is easier to do. It is especially true with amounts of wet wash that exceed the ability to absorb the fabric.

A detailed description of a preferred embodiment of a machine has been previously described to complement such an application where there is no free washing machine to be used in the following discussion.

In an automatic front loader washer of the type previously described and illustrated in Figures 1-5, the washing fluid is pumped either from the laundry reservoir 69 or from the mixing cell (not shown in row 95). or having an IOC high pressure spray nozzle attached to that end. The tip should be located inside the washer in such a way as to optimize smooth and full application by attaching the hinges 100 to the tubular extension 19 of the fixed drum 15, as may be generally illustrated.

Within the invention, less sophisticated means may be used to ensure a good distribution of the laundry liquid on the fabrics.

As generally described in the foregoing description of the apparatus prior to the washing liquid being pumped through delivery line 95 and outside the nozzle 100, the movable drum 40 is preferably rotated in the center of rotation. of the drum so as not to interfere with the spray field of the nose 100, to be uniformly distributed mainly along the peripheral wall 40, This is preferably complemented by first guiding the moving drum 40 by means of a centrally driven steering wheel 34 at a constant speed or whichever speed and whichever is greater. moving drum 40 via eccentrically adjusted guided pulley 28 with reduced varying speed or enabling the fabrics to roll constantly through the spray.

The pressure on the delivery line 95 should be high enough to produce a predominantly spray fan-shaped plane of wet wash 230 through the nozzles 100, whereby the spray is preferably covered by 40 you see the picture 3.

This or particularly preferred method of application allows the fabrics to be mainly woven in the wet wash. This allows it to happen very often.y Interaction of the detergent / contaminant of the concentrated washing method. In addition, such a method of applying the washing liquid is completely ineffective when the amount of washing liquid used does not exceed the ability of the fabric to absorb most of the liquid, especially all the liquid present. One benefit of the concentrated washing method is that endless cleaning results can be obtained on a wide range of wet washing temperatures. * The temperature of the washing liquid can vary from about 2 ° C to about 90 ° C by about 90 ° C to about 90 ° C. most preferably from 25 ° C to about 50 ° C. Surprisingly or successfully performed at temperatures of about 25 ° C to about 50 ° C is such a good or successful Temperatures in excess of 50 ° C. Also, such low temperatures are particularly safe for colored and / or synthetic fabrics. * Color transfer is minimized at such temperatures, especially when there is no free-flowing washing fluid. is performed at temperatures above room temperature, or the washing liquid or the incoming water from supply line 80 may become hot before the washing liquid can be applied before washing liquid to be applied to fabrics. However, it is preferred that the temperature of the fabric does not exceed about 7 ° C as this may result in excessive curling and shrinkage. In addition, temperature sensitive synthetic fabrics should not be heated beyond the wash temperatures which are recommended by the manufacturer.

Applying energy after touching fabricsL._________________________________£_____

In a preferred embodiment, the action may be cis -adocal.

; ', -1,' V · i. · On fabrics after contact with a washing liquid, to be in the form of heat and / or mechanical energy;

although not completely switched, varying in duration from about I-3O minutes, preferably from about 5-15 minutes.

The application of heat energy enables the consumer to obtain excellent bleaching performance as free as sodium perborate, sodium percarbonate, and hydrogen peroxide, which are generally more hydrogen peroxide. This is not economical in a typical laundry detergent method at the cost of heating such large quantities of liquids. In addition, small amounts of water are used when the concentrated washing method typically has high efficiencies. the effective and / or sufficient use of the bleach in the concentrated washing process.

In a preferred embodiment, heat action is applied by re-circulating wet air, which is heated through a heating element 165 to raise or temperature the fabrics to about 60 ° C, or to the temperature at which they are raised. from the closed loop wet-air re-circulation system, unveiled in Figure I, A variety of other methods may be used to apply heat energy; non-limiting examples are steam, or solar, microwave energy. temperature active bleaching agents such as hyperozoids. Such activated whitening agents are ineffective at about 50 ° C. 'Organic peroxide activators', such as are well known in the art and are described further herein by reference to USP4,248,928 SPADINI et al.

Partners, issued February 3, 1931, and 4,220,562 SPABINI, and Partners issued September 12, 1980, are hereby incorporated herein by reference. USP 4,126,373 JOHNSTON, issued on November 21, 1978, and 4,100,095 HUTCHINS and Associates issued June, 1979, where both diplomas are hereby incorporated by reference.

Other applications of the application of heat energy are to assist in the distribution of laundry liquid to fabrics and or removal of grease / oily pollutant. then the application of the heat energy does indeed provide a partial additional distribution. 'Experimental evidence also suggests that the heat energy does indeed help in some way. Removal of the lipid / oily pollutant, some other potential benefits of applying heat energy are either the effective use of enzymes and the creation of desired phases of surfactants. certain temperature ranges to maximize or ineffect the feS & enzyme. * However, as discussed hereinabove, heat action does not provide a major performance benefit, except as previously discussed for bleach in the concentrated washing process. It is preferred that the heat action be applied so that the temperature of the fabrics is about 1 ° C to about 70 ° C and preferably about 4 ° C to about 25 ° C to 5 ° C.

* The application of mechanical energy provides a variety of benefits. * The mechanical action will help to distribute the washing liquid so that it is distributed more evenly and partially on the fabrics. Thus, if during the application stage of the washing liquid, the washing liquid is not mainly uniformly distributed completely on the fabrics, then the failure of mechanical energy will promote such distribution.

The mechanical action also minimizes the time period for the fabrics to stay in direct contact with each other.

Accordingly, dyeing by touch is minimized. 'It is also believed that mechanical action contributes to improved cleaning efficiency.' Prevent the transformation of soap. 'But this depends on the concentration and nature of the detergent composition in the washing liquid.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figures 1-5, mechanical action can be applied by continuous rotation of the moving drum 40 at the last speed at which the washing fluid is applied. results in mechanically shaken fabrics.

E-EXPLANATION

Upon completion of the aforementioned steps, the fabrics are rinsed in a wash liquid which preferably comprises pure water. non-polluting water,: / - / 7, '', '', '' and '' pollutant. Thus, the present wash step is performed simultaneously / 1

The dirt and detergent transfer operations normally carried out in successive standard washing and rinsing steps. Surprisingly, it has been postulated that during the wash step or with the contamination of the dirt and the color transfer is minimal. It has also been observed that the wash laundry contains stable laundry process emulsion particles. does not contain emulsion particles. "

In the preferred washer illustrated in Figs. 1-5, the washer is inserted into the inner drum cell 40 from the SO supply line via the control valve S3, of the delivery line III and the tips applied 120, the movable drum 40 is preferably rotated at a high speed through an eccentrically adjusted guided pulley 2S so that the fabrics that are washed are forced to rotate in a similar manner.

In addition to fully flushing the laundry, the mobile drum 40 may be stopped and rotated in the direction of sometimes turning. After completing the initial wash, the washing fluid is preferably removed from the mobile drum 40 by pumping it through pump 140 without accelerating or rotating the moving drum. * This method may be repeated several times until the Detergent Composition and dirt are removed. * However, the fabrics do not have to rotate at a high rotational speed of the moving drum 40 between the washes. This minimizes the possibility of wrinkling if the fabrics are warm and also flush. The material makes the possibility of soil contamination due to the fact that the laundry filter is filtered through the fabrics. 'If it is desired', add-ons such as optical brighteners, fabric softeners and Perfumes can be added!

wash or apply, through the tip applied 120, after the last rinse and lid

Incorporating agents such as starch can also be added by spraying after the last wash; or, after the last wash, the fabrics can be rotated by rotating at a high speed of 40 degrees.

An ineffective wash can be supplemented according to the present invention with reduced water consumption and, therefore, if hot water, reduced energy consumption is used. The amount of rinse fluid per kilogram of wash load is about 4 to 52 liters, preferably about 5 liters to about 10 liters per wash roll. fabrics to be sufficiently suspended in dirt and detergent composition; in particular, more than one wash cycle is necessary to remove any dirt and / or detergent composition; fabrics.

By using small amounts of liquid wash, the consumer is permitted to carry out a whole cycle of washing the present invention with about 25 liters of water per kilogram of washing load.

The temperature of the washing fluid is from about I5 ° C to about 55 ° C and preferably from about 25 ° C to about 45 ° C. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention is carried out in the apparatus of Figures 1-5, or full flushing comprises two or three cycles which can be carried out either in cold or pure hot water for 10 minutes. almost every cycle would not necessarily have the same length of time. *

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the weight of the dry wash load is determined by one of the weight sensing machines (not shown) and the amounts of the washing machine itself, with and without After the last step of washing, washed fabrics may, if desired, to make the device appear & illustrated in Figures 1-5. This is done by positioning deflection valve 168 so that atmospheric air is drawn into the connecting pore 171 for the baffle 160, to be heated by the heating element I65, to circulate through the cushioned fabrics 40, drum 40 in liquid state via connecting pipe 167 and ventilating the atmosphere through connecting pipe 170. In practicing this option it is possible for the consumer to perform the washing and drying process in a single device continuously.

* This concentrated washing method can be used for cleaning edges and more impure fabrics and especially synthetic fabrics in a plurality of washing cycles. When an effective bleach is used, the number of washing cycles required for such purposes is reduced. This is believed to be due to the combination of extremely removal of the dirt and the essential avoidance of excessive dust. It has also been observed that the present concentrated washing method extends the use of fabrics.

Another aspect of the present invention is a granular paste, gel, or liquid detergent composition packaged together with dogmas for use in the concentrated washing method; washing for mainly smooth and complete distribution?

The method of the present invention is primarily directed to the washing of houses consisting of laundry loads mainly comprised of fabrics i.e. or a method of a small batch method, or which typically cleans less than 10 kilograms of soiled fabrics in any mixture of fabric and / or color types. * Whereas, or the present, concentrated washing method has been described in detail in combination with a preferred washing apparatus which will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the process may be performed in an artisanal manner; on the fabrics and the apparent value of the free quantities of free laundry we have touched on the fabrics.

The following examples illustrate the invention.

Example_I±

Three rows of polyester and polyester woven fabrics containing the following types of synthetic SEBUE triolene, CRISCO oil and a mixture of inorganic particulate matter and lipid filaments were prepared. followed by a spray of liquid containing 1.92 g. ARIEL (a commercial non-polluting composition containing about IC% - surfactant, about 45% of sodium tripolyphosphate, about 12% sodium perborate bleach and about 114% of an enzymatic composition of a microfiltration dishwasher uncovered in the description of the preferred apparatus, * This amount of ARIEL corresponds to about 52 g. 1 kg of laundry detergent for non-polluting composition. The moving drum in the tun

The miniature of the washer was 9 inches in diameter and depth.

The fabric samples were then mechanically stirred at room temperature for seven minutes by rotating the moving drum. The fabric samples were subsequently washed with another washing machine miniature or six inches in diameter and four inches deep, the drum being drained with 0.462 liters of tap water for 2 minutes. (The size of the drum used for rinsing was chosen to be proportional to the fabric load if the size of the drum used to apply the washing fluid was greater than either because of the small size.

The wash step was performed three times. * The above. The method was repeated with rinsing liquids including varying amounts of water and 1.92 ARIEL. , with the largest number to mean greater pollutant removal.

The level of amylase present in the non-polluting composition is about 150 amyl units per 100 g. a detergent composition of up to about 24,000 units of amylase over 100 g; of the detergent composition of up to about 24,000 units of amylase over 100 g. of the detergent composition, and preferably about 1,200 amylase units over 100 grams of the detergent composition to about 6000 amylase units over 100 g. Amylase units are defined in UKP 1,275,501 DESF0R & ES (published 24 December 1972).

The concentrated washing method also permits the effective use of new detergent compositions including other desirable auxiliary ingredients which will have no significant detrimental effects on the consumer. AT 9 '' '' '- * -' \ soil pollutants, antistatic agents, colors, gravitational and / or ... - - * Cj pH adjusting agents, anti-fouling structural agents, antifungal agents, anti-disinfectants, anti-corrosive agents and anti-corrosive agents. As such, these components are used in layers with a non-detergent composition which provide no appreciable benefit to the consumer while the Detergent composition is used in typical home-based washing machines.

"A notable consumer benefit is based on a representative consumer number, the benefit of which is such that it can be unrecognized by a large number of consumers with a loyalty level of 95 /. Most preferably these components are used less than 3/4 of the level where a consumer benefit is observed, most notably less than 1/2 of said level.

In the appended claims it is intended to cover all modifications which are within the scope of the present invention.
