Abstract: Object of the present invention is to provide a drum type washing machine having a new drain system, which can eliminate inconvenience of user to squat down for mounting/dismounting a drain filter, and damage to electric components following overflow of washing water during water supply.

Abstract: The drum type washing machine includes a tub of plastic having a wall portion for holding washing water and securing a driving unit thereto, and a front side sloped upward at a predetermined angle from ground, a drum rotatably mounted in the tub, a hollow drum shaft passed through the tub, and connected to the drum inside of the tub for transmission of driving power from a motor to the drum, at least one bearing for supporting the hollow drum shaft, a stator fixedly secured to the rear wall portion of the tub, a rotor connected to a rear end of the drum shaft to constitute a motor together with the stator, a pulsator rotatably mounted in the drum, a pulsator shaft mounted to pass through the hollow of the drum shaft, having a fore end connected to the pulsator, and pulsator control means for braking/releasing rotation the pulsator.

Abstract: Tilted drum type washing machine of a new structure, which can make introduction and take out of laundry easy, reduce water consumption, and enhance washing performance, and effect, and a method for controlling the same.

Abstract: A washing/drying machine capable of effecting washing and drying as a continuous process. Washing, rinsing, dehydrating and drying are performed while a rotary basket is retained in a vertical position. After the dehydration the rotary basket is inclined and is rotated on its axis, so that an opening end of the rotary basket is located slightly higher than the horizontal. In this state, hot air for drying is blown into the rotary basket from the opening side.

Abstract: A full automatic washing machine having a washing/drying cell rotatably mounted in an outer cell, a rotary blade unit provided on the bottom of the washing/drying cell and provided with a cylindrical member mounted thereon, and a washing machine motor adapted to rotate the blade unit in forward and backward directions during washing and rinsing and, to rotate the washing/drying cell at a high speed in one direction during drying. The ratio of the outside diameter of the rotary blade unit to the inside diameter of the washing/drying cell is selected to range between 0.6 and 0.8. The speed of rotation of the rotary blade unit is selected to fall within the range of between 100 and 250 rpm. The time length of rotation of the washing machine motor in each of forward and backward directions is selected to be less than 1 second.
