  • Patent number: 11384474
    Abstract: A washing machine includes a pin member coupled to an upper side of a cabinet and extending upwardly toward the upper side of the cabinet. The pin member passes through a through hole of a top cover which is engaged by the pin member. When the top cover is moved to the upper side of the cabinet, the through hole is hooked up in a section where the pin member is inclined upward. Accordingly, it is possible to restrict the top cover from moving to the upper side of the cabinet by a predetermined distance or more. The washing machine includes a fixing bracket that is laterally coupled to the lower flange of the cabinet to which the pin member is coupled.

  • Publication number: 20190330782
    Abstract: A washing machine according to the present disclosure includes a pin member coupled to an upper side of a cabinet to improve a coupling property between a top cover and a cabinet. The pin member extends upwardly toward the upper side of the cabinet. The through hole of the top cover passing through the pin member is engaged through the pin member, and when the top cover is moved to the upper side of the cabinet, the through hole is hooked up in a section where the pin member is inclined upward. Accordingly, it is possible to restrict the top cover from moving to the upper side of the cabinet by a predetermined distance or more. And washing machine includes a fixing bracket that is laterally coupled to the lower flange of the cabinet to which the pin member is coupled to improve the assemblability of the pin member and the cabinet.

  • Patent number: 5865047
    Abstract: A pulsator, which is installed in a washing tub of a washing machine, includes a base, a post protruded upwardly from a upper surface of the base, a plurality of blades extended radially with respect to the post and outwardly the base, and protruded upwardly on the upper surface of the base, and a plurality of vanes formed on a upper portion of the post, extended radially and outwardly with respect to the upper portion of the post. The plurality of blades develop a heart-type water flow in the washing tub, and the a plurality of vanes develop a water flow at a central portion of the heart-type water flow, thereby the twisting and tangling of the laundry caused by the heart-type water flow can be minimized.
