METHOD FOR DETECTING CLOTH AMOUNT IN DRUM WASHING MACHINE

摘要

Method for detecting an amount of cloth in a drum washing machine, is disclosed, in which a change in RPM is measured for a preset duration in a disentangle step in a spinning cycle for detecting an amount of cloth, including a rotation speed measuring step for measuring a RPM of a drum for a preset time period after elapse of a preset time period from a t ime when the RPM is reached to a preset RPM and counting particular number of times of the measur ed RPM for each of preset multiple absolute RPM stages, and a rotation speed comparing step for comparing preset multiple stages of reference numbers of times which are references for de termining a cloth amount to the counted particular number of times of the measured RPM for each of the absolute RPM stages to detect a cloth amount.
