Abstract: Proposed are a washing machine and a control method therefor, which may allow a user to safely and additionally put laundry in during the operation of the washing machine including an auxiliary door. The washing machine includes an auxiliary door through which laundry is additionally put in, indicates whether additionally putting-in of laundry during the operation of the washing machine is allowed, and enables a user to determine the same, in order to provide an algorithm for safely operating the auxiliary door, and checks a rotation of a drum, a temperature of the inside, and a level of water when it is desired to additionally put laundry in, so as to enable the user to safely put the laundry in. Also, when the user additionally puts laundry in while the washing machine performs a cycle, the washing machine changes a cycle profile for each cycle, and corrects a cycle profile according to an additional put-in point, thereby raising reliability of the user for the washing machine.

Abstract: A washing machine include a main body in which an inlet is formed in a front portion thereof; a tub provided inside the main body; a washing tub rotatably provided inside the tub; and a sink provided on the main body and having a water tank formed to be recessed to store water, wherein the water tank includes a soaking part in which laundry is soaked and a scrubbing part on which laundry is scrubbed and hand-washed, the function of soaking the laundry in water and the function of hand-washing are provided and the washing effect is improved.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a washing machine including an air-stream guide configured to guide a rotating air-stream generated by rotation of the drum toward the spray opening. The washing machine having the circulation apparatus can prevent water or bubbles remaining in the tub and the pump room from flowing into the inside of the drum along the circulation path of the circulation apparatus, due to a pressure difference made between the center area and the outer area of the tub during spin-drying in which the drum rotates at high speed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a washing machine with a balancer to counterbalance unbalanced load produced during rotation of a drum and a control method thereof. The washing machine having a balancer to counterbalance unbalanced load produced during rotation of the drum seats a mass in a groove in the balancer before rotation of the drum possibly producing unbalance as in the spin-drying cycle begins, thereby efficiently maintaining balance of the drum. Accordingly, vibration in the drum may be reduced and product liability incident due to touch of the frame may be prevented.

Abstract: A washing machine includes a cabinet, a drum rotatably arranged within the cabinet, an annular recess provided in the drum, and a balancer to offset an unbalanced load caused within the drum during rotation of the drum. The balancer includes a balancer housing mounted to the recess and has an annular channel therein, at least one mass movably disposed in the channel, and at least one ball disposed between the balancer housing and the mass to generate rolling motion.
