The principle of operation of the washing unit
As the name implies, this unit removes various kinds of stains with the help of bubble circulation.
Air bubbles are constantly moving in the water and pierce things, with the help of washing powders or liquid conditioners and conditioners, the bubbles erase contaminated areas.
Something like boiling, but if you boil, then you just ruin your things, because hot water wears out and weakens the fibers.
Bubble technology in automatic washing machines
One of the most important parts in a washing machine is a tank, as dirty things are loaded into it and water enters it.
Inside the tank is a stainless steel drum; it makes rotational movements. Through the inlet hose, water is supplied to the tank, which, on its way, takes the washing powder from the tank, which was filled up earlier.
In washing machines of this type, after water enters the tray with detergents (rinse aids or powders), water with these mixtures descends into the so-called bubble generator, the location of which is under the drum. Mixed with air, water rises inside the drum through small holes, already transformed into a washing solution, a large amount of foam and air bubbles.
Bubbles are so effective that they can quite cope even with rather heavily dried stains: they pierce the fabric, knocking out various kinds of dirt. During the washing process, the bubbles burst and create heat, which is the effect of boiling.
Activator washing machines
The only difference between this type of washing machines is that these units have a vertical loading shape.
At the bottom of the drum there is a shaft (pulsator), which creates eddy currents of water and jets for washing. A separate element to the activator washing machine - the nozzle - lets bubbles in evenly throughout the drum, which is a considerable merit of the activator.
Washing machines of this type do not have heating elements, as they are connected to the central water supply to cold and hot water.The bubble generator quite vigorously throws bubbles into the drum during the entire washing process, which makes it possible to cope with various kinds of pollution very effectively.
Analysis of the possibilities of air-bubble washing machines
pros
The advantage of air bubble washing machines is the following list:
Saving electricity and laundry detergents, as everything is cleaned with the help of a large amount of foam produced inside;- High level of efficiency in removing contaminated areas, boiling effect;
- Washing time is reduced. The result will be the same as with drum type washing machines with long program combinations that are not equipped with an air bubble system;
- The bubble pillow makes laundry delicate. This pillow does not allow things inside to rub against each other and against the walls of the drum, so things remain in their original form after the end of the washing process;
- Clean clothes are the same size after washing and never shrink;
- This type of machine can be stopped at any time, and you can even add or remove some of the things during washing without turning it off;
- There is no need to connect the activator washing machine to the water supply, because water is simply poured into the tank;
- The noise level during washing is quite low.

- The cost is slightly higher than conventional devices;
- The dimensions are quite large than, say, conventional washing machines of drum and activator types.
