Problems solved by technology

[0018] First, refer to image 3 , in the case where the temperature sensor 60 is fastened to the housing 51 with the screw S, the bracket 67 is easy to rotate together with the screw along the screw fastening direction, thereby requiring the other side of the bracket 67 so rotated to be put back, to Aligning the other side with the fastening hole sections 73 and 75 is a cumbersome work process
[0019] Second, in the process for installing the temperature sensor 60 to the casing 51 of the steam generator 50, the use of screws S (separate fasteners) has poor workability and requires a long assembly time
[0020] Third, the use of screws when installing the temperature sensor 60 increases the unit cost of the product
[0021] Fourth, since only the sensor part 61 is fastened to the housing 51 with the bracket 67, leaving the wire 65 and the connector 63 in contact with the outside of the housing 51, the heating water in the housing 51 passes through the upper part of the housing 51 to the wire 65 and the heat of the connector 63 deforms or damages the wire 65 and the connector 63

Abstract

The present invention relates to a structure for mounting a temperature sensor (61) on a steam generator, which enables easy and convenient mounting of a temperature sensor (61) on a steam generator. For this, the present invention provides a structure for mounting a temperature sensor (61) on a steam generator in a drum type washing machine including a case (51) which is an exterior of the steamgenerator; the temperature sensor (61) provided to the case (51) for sensing a temperature of steam generated by a heater; a bracket (67) for fixing the temperature sensor (61); a fastening portion (70) provided to the case (51) for fastening the bracket (67) to the case (51) with separate fastening members; and a bracket rotation preventive portion (100) provided to the case (51) for preventing the bracket (67) from rotating at the time the temperature sensor (61) is mounted.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a steam generator in a drum type washing machine, and more particularly, to a structure for installing a temperature sensor on the steam generator, which enables easy and convenient installation of the temperature sensor on the steam generator . Background technique [0002] The present invention relates to a steam generator in a drum type washing machine, and more particularly, to a structure for installing a temperature sensor on the steam generator. [0003] Generally, among washing machines, there are a pulsator type washing machine and a drum type washing machine. In each pulsator washing machine, washing is carried out by using the water circulation formed by the rotation of the disc agitator; The friction between them is used for washing. [0004] Among washing machines, the demand for the drum type washing machine is increasing due to advantages of the drum type washing machine, such as low consumption of det...
