Washing machine

Abstract

A washing machine comprises an outer tub disposed in a case and receiving water therein, an inner tub installed in the outer tub, receiving laundry therein and rotated for washing and dewatering the laundry and a lower balancer installed at a lower part of the inner tub for reducing vibration generated during rotation of the inner tub. Accordingly, a lopsidedness and vibration of the inner tub generated during washing and dewatering operations can be prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a washing machine, and more particularly to a washing machine comprising a balancer formed at a lower part of a washing tub to reduce vibration generated during rotation of the washing tub. Background technique [0002] Usually, if attached figure 1 As shown, the washing machine includes a casing 110 , an outer tub 112 , an inner tub 114 , a pulsator 116 , a hollow dehydration shaft 118 , a washing shaft 120 , a drive motor 122 and an upper balancer 124 . Wherein the casing 110 forms the appearance of a washing machine and its top can be selectively opened; the outer tub 112 is placed in the casing 110 and filled with water; the inner tub 114 is placed in the outer tub 112 for loading clothes to be washed, and It can rotate to wash and dehydrate clothes; the pulsator 116 is installed in the inner tub 114 and rotates to stir the water and the clothes to be washed; the hollow dehydration shaft 118 is connected with the i...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the washing machine according to the conventional art, since the inner tub 114 containing the laundry rotates at a high speed, vibration occurs during dehydration.

A certain degree of vibration can be absorbed by the upper balancer 124, but if the lower part of the inner tub 114 loses balance, the degree of vibration becomes very strong

Then, due to the vibration of the lower part of the inner tub 114, the performance of the washing machine is reduced
