Latest Patents

One of Matsumi's latest patents is a washing machine equipped with a turbidimeter and a method of operating it. This washing machine utilizes a turbidimeter to measure the turbidity of cleaning water, allowing for better control over the duration of washing and cleaning cycles. The quality of this control is enhanced by taking measurements during weak water flow, minimizing the effects of foams. Additionally, the system waits for turbidity to drop at the beginning of the cycle to detect the initial value used in subsequent steps. The sensitivity of the turbidimeter is automatically adjusted for accuracy when the operation is temporarily stopped and restarted during a cycle.

Another notable patent is a progress indicator for a washing machine. This progress indicator features display means with six light-emitting elements that indicate the current stage of a washing or rinsing cycle. The display is controlled by signals from detectors measuring turbidity and the amount of water in the tank. Although the operation is not temporally controlled, the indicator can accurately display the progress of the operation.
