Abstract: Drum type washing machine including a tub of plastic having a wall for holding washing water therein and mounting a driving part thereon, a drum rotatably arranged inside of the tub, a shaft passed through the tub and connected to the drum for transmission of a driving power from a motor to the drum, at least one bearing for supporting the shaft, a bearing housing having a sleeve form of bearing supporting part, and a stator fastening part extended in a radial direction from the bearing supporting part, wherein both of the bearing supporting part and the stator fastening part are inserted in a tub rear wall, while stator fastening holes in the stator fastening part are exposed, a rotor engaged to a rear end part of the shaft to form the motor together with the stator, and the stator mounted on the stator fastening part of the bearing housing with fastening members on an inner side of the rotor to form the motor together with the rotor, wherein the stator includes an annular helical type core having multiple l

Abstract: The present invention relates to a laundry device, and more particularly, to a laundry device of a new structure, in which a depressed portion is formed along a circumference of a portion of a hole in a cabinet for press fit to a groove in a holding member of a power cord assembly, thereby maintaining a secure joining state of the power cord assembly with the cabinet.

Abstract: A drum-type washing machine, by which an enhanced assembly of a top plate can be provided, is disclosed. The top plate for a washing machine includes a board covering a top of the washing machine, a front frame provided to a front side edge of the board to enhance a structural strength of the board, a rear frame provided to a rear side edge of the board to enhance the structural strength of the board, at least one connecting member provided to adjoining portions of the front and rear frames to secure the adjoining portions together, and at least one fixing guide spaced apart from the at least one connecting member, the at least one fixing guide providing a slip-fit connection between the front and rear frames.

Abstract: A gasket and washing machine having the same prevent laundry from becoming wedged between a drum and a gasket for preventing water leakage. The gasket is coupled between a cabinet of a drum-type washing machine including a drying duct for providing a drying function and a tub disposed inside the cabinet. The gasket includes an annular lip, protruding inwardly from an inner circumference of the gasket, for preventing foreign matter from entering a space existing between the tub and a rotating drum, and a laundry kicker, protruding inwardly from a predetermined portion of the annular lip, for dislodging laundry that has become wedged between the annular lip and the rotating drum.
