Problems solved by technology

[0008] While the above mentioned suspension dampens vibration much better than conventional machines, it has been noted that it does not have the ability to work optimally in all machine operating conditions
[0009] In fact, once the machine can be used to load different laundry loads, and the basket / tub arrangement can be run at different speeds, a suspension arrangement with uniform suspension characteristics (albeit more efficient than conventional ones) cannot provide Optimal suspension, a suspension that always provides uniform suspension characteristics at a given load and speed is not optimal

Embodiment Construction

[0022] Hereinafter, the present application will be described in more detail based on working examples shown in the drawings. Although the following description exemplifies a suspension device of a vertical-axis washing machine with a top-loading door, those skilled in the art can imagine that the present invention can be applied to other types of washing machines, such as a horizontal-axis washing machine with a front-loading door.

[0023] figure 1 A schematic sectional view of a washing machine comprising the suspension device of the present invention is shown. The washing machine comprises a structural casing 10, the construction of which is well known in the art. A tub 50 containing washing liquid is provided inside the housing. Said structural housing 10 and bucket 50 are widely known in the prior art, wherein, for the purposes of illustration and description, Brazilian patent application PI 0705172-7 is used herein as an example structure.

[0024] In this structure,...

Abstract

The present invention refers to a suspension assembly for laundry machines and, more specifically, to a suspension assembly for laundry machine comprising a washing liquid-containing tank suspended inside a structural housing. Said suspension assembly of the present invention comprises at least a suspension rod coupled to an upper portion of the inner wall of said housing and an lower portion of the outer wall of said tank; and at least a radial connection element with a first edge couplable to different positions of the outer wall of said tank and a second edge couplable to the suspension rod.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a suspension device of a washing machine. More precisely, it relates to a vertical axis washing machine. Background technique [0002] In a top-loading vertical axis washing machine, a washing tub is kept suspended in a structural casing, and a basket containing a large amount of laundry is installed in the tub and washed in the tub. [0003] During washing operations, an agitator / impeller disposed within the basket is used to move the laundry load and wash liquor being washed within the basket. During spin-drying—the operation in which water left over from the washing process is removed from the laundry load—the basket rotates at a rotational speed that is generally faster than the rotation applied to the basket or agitator / impeller during the washing operation. high speed. [0004] This basket rotation operation creates severe vibrations in the basket / tub arrangement which are transmitted to the structural housing causing ...
