Abstract: A washing machine capable of performing washing by increasing a water level when an overload of a motor is detected, and a control method thereof. The washing is performed by detecting an overload of the motor using a load detecting circuit and changing a water level to a highest water level when the overload is detected. Thus, a burning smell may not be caused from the motor by preventing stalling of the motor, and washing performance may be maintained since the motor is continuously operated without stopping.

Abstract: A washing machine and a control method thereof capable of determining whether a driving motor is locked. A pulsator is rotatably mounted in a spin basket, a driving motor generates rotational force, a clutch transmits the rotational force to the pulsator or the spin basket, a driving circuit supplies a driving current to the driving motor, and a control unit controls the driving circuit and the clutch so that the pulsator rotates in a forward or reverse direction and rotation of the spin basket is stopped in a washing or rinsing process. The control unit controls the driving circuit so that a motor lock detection current is supplied to the driving motor, and controls the clutch so that, if a rotating speed of the driving motor is less than a reference speed, the rotational force is transmitted only to the pulsator.

Abstract: A washing machine and a control method thereof, capable of reducing noise by performing a zero-current control during the braking of a motor, and checking whether a vibration sensor is installed on a tub in a weight detection state in the beginning of a spin-drying. The zero-current control is performed by driving a current regulator with a command current set to “0 A”, so that the current flowing at the motor decreases and thus noise is reduced. In a washing machine having a vibration sensor fixedly attached to a tub, a fixation state of the vibration sensor with respect to the tub is checked in advance by use of measurement data of the vibration sensor at a weight detection stage in the beginning of the spin drying so that the frame touch caused by an erroneous detection of vibration or a failure of vibration detection may be prevented.
