Abstract

A tub for a drum washing machine, wherein the tub is assembled by connecting parts, separately prepared, to avoid retaining water therein when the tub is drained, and a drum washing machine having the same. The drum washing machine includes a housing; a tub assembled by connecting a front tub part and a rear tub part, and located in the housing to contain washing water; and a drainage exit formed through a connection portion juxtaposed to the front tub part and the rear tub part, for example, a lowermost position of the tub due to a draft angle, thereby causing the washing water in the tub to be completely discharged to the outside when the tub is drained, and thus, preventing the generation of a disagreeable smell and the contamination of laundry.
