washing machine

Abstract

A washing machine can effectively use the volume of the inner tub by preventing the water in the inner tub from leaking from the outer tub. The washing machine (1) of the present invention is equipped with: a seal water seal portion (34), which has a seal (35) arranged between the upper end of the outer tub (3) and the upper end of the inner tub (4), to prevent water from The outer tub (3) leaks to the outside; the labyrinth part (8) adopts a labyrinth structure, and the inner side of the seal water seal part (34) will be lower than the seal water seal part (34). 82) It is arranged between the upper end of the outer tub cover (32) and the inner tub (4); and the washing bucket (7) is integrally arranged as a heightened tub and the outer tub cover (32), and is used for storing (4) The water of the water level of the upper end.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention mainly relates to a washing machine suitable for domestic use. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, a so-called vertical type washing machine is known, which has an inner tub opened upward for storing laundry and an outer tub for storing the inner tub (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). In order to prevent water from overflowing to the outer side of the outer tub, the water level of the water supplied during the washing process and rinsing process of the washing machine is generally set to have a certain degree of margin compared with the balancer provided at the upper end of the inner tub. at the low position. Moreover, there is also a method in which a seal is provided between the outer tub and the outer tub cover to prevent water from leaking out from the outer tub for water that exceeds the balancer of the inner tub and reaches the inner surface side of the outer tub body. [0003] However, not only the above...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, not only the above-mentioned patent documents, but also in the conventional vertical washing machine, it is impossible to pursue the washing process and the rinsing process of storing water to the water level near the upper end in order to more effectively utilize the volume of the inner tub.

Assuming that if the set water level is raised so that the water that goes around the side of the outer tub increases, the water sealing measures will become smaller if the screw fixing positions for fastening the seal between the outer tub and the outer tub cover are not increased. Did not do well

[0004] Furthermore, when there is a need to raise the water level to a position higher than the upper end of a balancer or the like provided with an inner tub, the current situation is to prevent water from leaking between the sealing member water seal and the outer tub. The water seal structure of the seals cannot cope with
