Investigation of single and double action mechanical deflection

Abstract

Many types of washing approaches have been introduced in laundry industry. They generally use rotating drum and rotary actuator installed at the bottom washing drum to generate rotating effect during washing process. There are two basic design of washing machine available in the market which is can be represented by horizontal and vertical feature. Tumbling action and mass transfer are the mechanical action applied in horizontal washing machine where in the vertical type, actuator or bottom spindle rotate the wash load to blends it with the cleaning solution while the drum is rotating. Those mentioned washing processes are considered a passive washing or single action washing process as effective washing will only take place after some times and no immediate washing action though after spontaneous action of actuator. This paper will present double action cloth washing method which will produce better outcome result in term of improved quality of washing process.
