Washing machine

Abstract

According to the present invention, there is provided a washing machine including a bearing housing which is installed on a bottom surface of an outer tub, a clutch stopper which is installed on a bottom surface of the bearing housing, and a driving motor which includes a stator and a rotor which are coupled to a lower side of the clutch stopper, in which the clutch stopper includes a base portionwhich is disposed on the bottom surface of the bearing housing; and a fastening boss which extends from the base portion to the lower side by a predetermined length and is fastened to stator by a fastening member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to washing machines. Background technique [0002] Generally, a washing machine includes a washing tub for holding washing water, a drum rotatably arranged in the washing tub and used for accommodating clothes, etc. and dehydration. [0003] Washing machines can be divided into top loading type in which the center of rotation of the drum is formed vertically and the laundry can be put in from the upper side; The direction of the washing machine is formed obliquely, and the laundry can be loaded from the front in the front loading type (front loading type). [0004] The top loading washing machine can be roughly classified into an agitator type which performs washing by rotating a washing rod protruding from the center of a drum, and a pulsator type. A type washing machine performs washing by rotating a disc-shaped pulsator or drum formed at the lower part of the drum. [0005] The front loading type washing machine is ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In this case, the vibration generated from the drive motor is transmitted to the bearing housing side via the clutch stopper, causing a problem of large noise.

[0013] Second, in the prior art, there is no structure for keeping the operation amount (rotation amount) of the clutch lever constant

Therefore, the operation amount of the clutch lever cannot be kept constant, resulting in severe friction between the counterparts (eg, couplings) in contact with the clutch lever, and thus, there is a problem of component wear

[0014] Third, the fastening force of the fastening member for fixing the stator is gradually weakened due to the vibration generated by the high-speed operation of the motor

When the fastening force of the fastening member is weakened, there is a problem that abnormal noise increases due to component eccentricity
