An inner drum cover is provided at a drum opening of an inner drum of a washing machine, the inner drum cover is used to open or close the drum opening, so that the inner drum forms a closed container after the drum opening is closed by the inner drum cover. The inner drum can perform washing after the inner drum cover is correspondingly fastened to the drum opening, so that clothes only come into contact with washing water in the sealed inner drum in a washing process. In this way, a case in which the clothes are contaminated because washing water between the inner drum and an outer drum flows into the inner drum is avoided, washing cleanliness of the washing machine is greatly improved, and incomplete washing of the clothes caused by contamination of the washing water between the inner drum and the outer drum is avoided.

A laundry washing machine having a cabinet, a washing tub housed inside the cabinet, a drum rotatably housed inside the cabinet, an electric additive treating device mounted in/on the drum and configured for treating a washing and/or rinsing additive loaded within the drum in such a way to generate within the drum a solution of washing and/or rinsing additive water. A method for operating such a laundry washing machine is also provided.

A laundry treating apparatus may include a main body having a laundry inlet port at a front surface thereof and configured to accommodate laundry loaded through the laundry inlet port, and a door rotatably coupled to a front surface of the main body to open and close the laundry inlet port. The door may include an outer frame provided with an opening and facing an outside of the main body; a front glass coupled to a front surface of the outer frame to cover the opening; an inner frame coupled to a rear surface of the outer frame and facing an inside of the main body; and a mounting guide that protrudes from an outer circumference of the outer frame to surround an outer circumferential surface of the front glass. The outer circumferential surface of the front glass may include a first curved portion provided at a front side thereof in a thickness direction, and a straight portion that extends toward a rear side from the first curved portion. The mounting guide may cover at least a portion of the straight portion.

A laundry lifting device for a washing machine includes a body with an accommodating chamber, a water inlet arranged in the body and communicated with the accommodating chamber, and a centrifugal drainage assembly arranged in the accommodating chamber. The centrifugal drainage assembly includes a sealing plunger capable of doing reciprocating motion and an elastic piece for elastically resetting the sealing plunger, the body is provided with a plunger base for installing the sealing plunger, and the elastic piece is kept limited in the plunger base in the reciprocating motion process of the sealing plunger. The elastic piece is installed in the plunger base in the sealing mode, and the elastic piece is kept limited in the plunger base in the reciprocating motion of the sealing plunger. So thread scraps are prevented from being hung on the elastic piece.

A dispenser box assembly for a laundry appliance that includes a dispenser housing and a lid. The dispenser housing includes one or more housing walls that define a main chamber. The lid is attached to the housing walls and includes an in-lid reservoir. The in-lid reservoir includes an inlet section that is arranged in fluid communication with water inlet ports in the dispenser housing and a diffuser section with an outlet that is arranged in fluid communication with the main chamber. An air port that is open to the atmosphere is arranged in fluid communication with the main chamber such that the main chamber is open to atmospheric pressure and produces a water pressure drop between the water inlet ports and a water outlet port at the bottom of the main chamber.
