Benefits of technology

[0022] Another object of the present invention is to provide a door on a washing machine which enables simple, low cost mounting of a transparent window on a door frame.
[0030] In the meantime, preferably, the door frame includes an adhesive recess for receiving an adhesive to attach the transparent door window to the door frame with the adhesive. The adhesive recess prevents the adhesive from spreading along an adhesive surface of the transparent door window at the time of attachment of the transparent door window to the door frame, thereby preventing impairing good looking, or transparency.

Problems solved by technology

However, the great seating recess is likely to cause difficult in positioning the transparent window at a right position, to cause inconvenience of mounting.

Abstract

Door on a washing machine, in which a seating position of a door glass is guided at the time of placing the door glass on a door frame, for securing the door glass at a right position. The door includes a transparent door window, and a door frame mounted on a top cover of the washing machine, the top cover having a cloth opening, and the door frame having an opening, and a guide for guiding positioning of the transparent door window to cover the opening. If a transparent window is provided to a door on the washing machine, a comparatively great seating recess is required for easy seating of the transparent window. However, the great seating recess is likely to cause difficult in positioning the transparent window at a right position, to cause inconvenience of mounting. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve this problem.
