1. In a washing machine, the actuator part consists of a motorized agitator, tumble tub, water drawing pump and inlet valve to control the flow of water into the unit.
2. The sensor part consists of the water temperature sensor, level sensor etc.
3. The control part contains a microprocessor/controller based board with interfaces to the sensors and actuators.
4. The sensor data is fed back to the control unit and the control unit generates the necessary actuator outputs.
5. The control unit also provides connectivity to the user interfaces like keypad for setting the washing time, selecting the type of material to be washed like light, medium or heavy duty etc.
6. User feedback is reflected through the display unit and LED connected to the control board.
7. In top loading the agitator of the machine twist back and forth (clock and anticlockwise direction) and pulls the cloth down to the bottom of the tub on reaching the bottom of the tub the cloth work their way back up to the top of the tub, where the agitator grabs them again and repeats the mechanism continuously.
8. In front loading machine the cloth are tumbled into the water over and over again.
9. This is what happens in the first phase of washing.
10. In the 2nd phase of washing, the water is pumped out from the tub and the inner tube uses a centrifugal force to bring out more water from the cloth by spinning at several hundred rotations per min. (called spin phase).
11. In the keyboard panel of the washing machine, we can make use of the buttons called wash, spin, rinse to configure the washing stage.
12. The inner tube contains a number of holes and during spin cycle, the inner tube spins and forces the water out through these holes to the stationary outer tub from which it is drained off through the outlet pipe.
