Benefits of technology

[0009] An object of the present invention is to provide a bracket for a washing machine for easily and strongly providing related part at the tub.
[0012] Preferably, the nut member and the body are formed as a single body, and the parts become a damper for supporting the tub or a balance weight for correcting weight imbalance of the tub.
[0015] Meanwhile, in accordance with the present invention, there is provided a bracket for a washing machine, the bracket including a body provided at the tub in the washing machine for supporting parts provided at the tub, and a linker provided at the body, coupled with a spring provided at a housing of the washing machine so as to make the tub to be elastically hanged, and evenly loading weight of a hanged tub on the body.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, the work efficiency is actually lowered in installing the damper and the balance weight because it takes a long time to fix the nut member.
Therefore, the tub can be directly damaged, and the separated nut member and the balance weight may damage other parts of the washing machine.
Therefore, owing to a large weight or fatigue loaded on the bracket, the bracket can be separated from the tub, and the tub can be damaged.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.

[0026]FIG. 1 illustrates a cross-sectional view of a washing machine in accordance with the present invention. With reference to the drawing, the washing machine in accordance with the present invention will be described. Although the illustrated washing machine is a front loading type washing machine, it is almost the same as a top loading type washing machine except that the tub 20 and the drum 30 are laid. Accordingly, although the present invention is described with reference to a front loading type washing machine for a brief description, it can also be applied to a top loading type washing machine.

[0027] As illustrated, the washing machine in accordance with the present invention includes a housing ...
