WASHING MACHINE, IN PARTICULAR, WASHING OR WASHING-DRYING MACHINE FOR LAUNDRY OR DISHWASHER, METHOD OF DETERMINING SUBMERGED OR PROTRUDING CONDITION OF ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE USED IN WASHING MACHINE, METHOD FOR REMOVAL OF LIME DEPOSITS FROM ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC D06F39/04 

FIELD: textiles, paper.

SUBSTANCE: machine comprises a tank (3) for containing the washing fluid (4), electrical resistance (1) for heating the washing fluid (4), the sensor (5) of temperature for measurement of the washing fluid (4) temperature. Resistance (1) and the sensor (5) of temperature are in a state of heat exchange due to conduction, and the resistance (1) when installed in the machine is located in a plane that is tilted relative to the surface of the washing fluid. This invention also relates to a method of determining if the resistance protrudes of the washing fluid or submerged into the washing fluid, and a method for removal of lime deposits (17) from the electrical resistance (1) made with the ability to heat the washing fluid (4) in the washing machine (2).

EFFECT: increased operational reliability.
