Sensor Washer
Washing machine with detergent sensor for optimal cleaning | |
Just like having sensor drying of washed clothes for efficiency,
make
a sensor in the washing machine that will tell the remaining
detergent level and adjust rinsing water accordingly. Ask if any
questions. Thanks.
I have the feeling it is hard baked. I did run one Google search,
but
will leave the rest to idea-busters.

But the amount of water required isn't really a function of
the amount of detergent available (or vice versa). They're
both determined by the load size. Using less water will
probably just cause the whole process to fail, and leave a
bunch of soap in your clothes. Better to simply use the
same amount of water and less detergent. |

Also, on every washing machine I've ever used, you simply
dump the detergent into the water after it starts filling
(which is why it doesn't stop filling when you open the lid).
How would the washer know how much soap is left, or even
be able to reduce the amount of rinsing water relative to
the amount of soap once the soap has been added to the
water? |

Sorry. Saw the title and wanted to apply for the job washing sensors. Will keep looking. |

The sensor can be a pH meter measuring the concentration
in the outflowing rinse water. Once it finds out the water
is neutral, it will do one more final rinse and go to
spinning. |

Ooooooh, I get it now. It's a washing machine that just
keeps rinsing until all of the soap is gone from the
water. |

At first it sounded like a way of adjusting the amount
of washing water when you were low on soap for some
reason. This makes more sense. Disregard previous
anno. |
|

If pH has not changed in the outlet for more than a minute,
it can be assumed that 99.9% of detergent has been
extracted. A succeeding final rinse then should complete
the job, saving water, money, and the planet.. umm. |
