Drum type washing machine

Abstract

The present invention relates to a drum type washing machine, which can provide a drum type washing machine with high lint trapping performance and no water leakage. The water tank (12) that rotatably includes and supports the rotating drum (11) is arranged in the box-shaped outer frame (1) in a manner that its front end side is inclined upwards in the direction of the central axis of rotation of the rotating drum. The circulation pump (16) that sucks the washing water stored in the water tank to generate the washing circulating water flowing into the rotary drum is placed under the water tank at the lower part of the rear end of the water tank, and makes the thread catcher that catches the lint from the washing circulating water The collection mechanism (5) is located above the water tank and is exposed to the front of the outer frame and is installed on the outer frame.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a drum type washing machine. Background technique [0002] Basically, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 - Japanese Utility Laid-Open No. 61-143586 and Patent Document 2 - Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 11-114285, there is a clothes inlet and outlet on the front end surface, and a rotation center A rotary drum with a horizontal shaft rotating, a water tank rotatably containing and supporting the rotary drum, sucking out washing water accumulated in the water tank and flowing it into the rotary drum to generate washing circulation water A circulating pump, a lint catch mechanism for catching lint (flannel) from the washing circulating water. [0003] Moreover, as a modified drum type washing machine, as disclosed in Patent Document 3-Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-9188, Patent Document 4-Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-105267, and Patent Document 5-Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-201775 The disclosed techno...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] This type of drum type washing machine has less washing water in the washing process, and the amount of water immersed in the laundry is also small, so it is difficult for the lint in the cloth from the laundry to flow out into the washing water in the washing process. There is also a problem that the collection of lint cannot be sufficiently achieved, and the amount of residual lint attached to the laundry increases

[0006] Furthermore, since the lint trapping mechanism is located below the water tank, there is the inconvenience that the lint trap filter cannot be removed for cleaning when washing water remains in the water tank.

In addition, when water droplets remain in the filter chamber of the lint trap mechanism, there is a problem of water leakage when the lint trap filter is removed, and the installation of the lint trap filter is troublesome.
