Laundry treating apparatus

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a laundry treating apparatus including a rotating drum in which lifters are provided. The laundry treating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a drum and a lifter, wherein the lifter includes a lifter frame and a frame cover, wherein the lifter frame includes a frame base, a frame upper plate, and a frame sidewall, wherein the frame cover includes a cover upper plate and a cover sidewall including a lower end and an upper end, wherein the lower end is coupled to the frame base by being mounted to the seating groove, and the upper end is connected to the cover upper plate, and wherein a spacing rib configured to space the cover sidewall apart from the frame sidewall is protrudingly formed in the seating groove.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a laundry processing device, and more specifically, to a laundry processing device provided with a lifter in a rotating drum. Background technique [0002] In general, a washing machine is a device that washes laundry using emulsification of detergent, friction of water flow caused by rotation of washing blades, impact action of washing blades, and the like. This kind of washing machine mainly uses the electric motor as the main power, and uses the action of detergent and water to carry out the process of washing, rinsing and dehydration, thereby separating the pollutants attached to the clothes. [0003] In addition, washing machines are classified into cylinder type, agitator type, and pulsator type according to washing methods. Among the washing machines of the above-mentioned various modes, the drum type washing machine arranges the drum in a rotatable manner inside the outer tub, puts water, detergent, and laundry...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0012] However, in the case of attaching the lifter to the drum in the same manner as in the washing machines of Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3, it is considered that a relatively large number of mounting holes need to be formed in the drum, so there is a possibility of being easily affected by the buckling load. deformation problem

[0013] In addition, since the assembly of the lifter for the drum becomes complicated and cumbersome as the number of mounting holes for installing one lifter increases, there is a concern that the manufacturing cost and manufacturing time of the lifter may increase.

[0014] As described above, when an additional structure such as a lifter is provided inside the drum to improve washing performance, the washing machine needs to solve various problems, but the existing washing machines have limitations that cannot adequately solve these problems
