  • Patent number: 9574297
    Abstract: A floating basket and clutch are applied to a top loading washing machine. More particularly, the basket floating (1) and clutch (2) are applied to top loading washing machines (M), equipped with a motor (M) and a drive system which includes a drive shaft (E), a pulley (P), a belt (Cr) and a sealing device (V), assembled between the shaft (E) and the base of the tub (T). More precisely, the clutch (2) is responsible for commanding the operation of the oscillating movement of the agitator or impeller (AG), during the washing operation (OPL) and operating the high-speed spinning of the agitator (AG) and basket (1), when operating in centrifugation operation (OPC). The floating basket (1) is coupled and fixed to the tube (5) of the upper sector (S1) of the clutch (2) and the tub (T) is fixed to the female lower crown (4) of the lower sector (S2) of the clutch (2).
