Abstract: Disclosed is a control method for a washing machine having three or more lifters inside a drum. The control method includes: positioning the lifters on an outer side of a first area including a drum lower portion, and positioning laundry on the first area; performing a first rotation step to rotate the drum in a first direction so that one of the lifters is positioned on the first area and the laundry is positioned on the lifter positioned on the first area; and performing a second rotation step to rotate the drum in a second direction opposite to the first direction, so that the lifters are positioned on the outer side of the first area and the laundry is positioned on the first area, wherein the first rotation step and the second rotation step are performed alternately and repeatedly.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a washing machine configured to rotate a cylindrical drum formed by processing a metal sheet about a horizontal axis. The drum includes a lifter, formed by processing the metal sheet, respectively provided at a plurality of points spaced along a circumferential direction, when viewed from a front side. The lifter includes a front lifter which is formed by protruding the metal sheet into the drum, and pressurized to be extended in a longitudinal direction of the drum, and a rear lifter disposed in a rear side of the front lifter. The rear lifter is disposed to form a certain phase angle with respect to the front lifter.

Abstract: A front-loading washing machine and a control method therefor are disclosed. The control method includes: when a sensed amount of laundry in a drum is equal to or less than a preset amount, rubbing step at which the drum is rotated in both directions, wherein the rubbing step comprises: a first rotation step at which the drum is rotated in a first direction by a preset one-direction rotational angle; and a second rotation step at which the drum is rotated by the one-direction rotational angle in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and wherein the first rotation step and the second rotation step are performed alternately and repeatedly. Accordingly, it is possible to perform a washing motion which improves washing performance and reduces wear and tear of the laundry.
