CPC分類
A washing machine appliance includes a tub positioned within a cabinet, a basket rotatably mounted within the tub and defining a wash chamber for receipt of articles for washing, an agitation element positioned in the wash basket, a motor in mechanical communication with the wash basket and agitation element and being configured for selectively rotating the wash basket and agitation element, a measurement device mounted to the tub for detecting the displacement amount of the tub, and a controller operatively coupled to the motor and measurement device. The controller is configured to control an operation of the motor to rotate the agitation element for a first agitation stroke distance, determine the displacement amount of the tub relative to first and second tub displacement thresholds based on the displacement amount detected by the measurement device, and perform an out-of-balance agitation cycle based on the displacement amount relative to the displacement thresholds.
