A water distributor (35) includes at least one inlet connector (36a, 36b, 36c, 36d, 36e) adapted to connect the at least one supply valve (40a, 40b, 40c, 40d, 40e) to at least one water conveying line (120a, 120b, 120c, 120d, 120e) for conveying water to a reservoir (23a, 23b, 23c, 23d) or to the washing tub (3). The at least one inlet connector (36a, 36b, 36c, 36d, 36e) extends along a main axis (X) which is inclined with respect to the sliding axis (S).
LAUNDRY TREATMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME
A method of controlling a laundry treatment apparatus, the method including: determining whether bubbles have been generated in a tub of the laundry treatment apparatus in a state in which a second washing apparatus of the laundry treatment apparatus is operated based on a sequence of operations; and based on a determination that bubbles have been generated, reducing bubbles by (i) adding at least one first operation to the sequence of operations or (ii) replacing at least one second operation of the sequence of operations, is disclosed.
Washing machine with conduit for supplying water to nozzles at gasket and manufacturing method of the conduit
A washing machine includes a casing, a tub, a drum, a circulation pump, an annular gasket connecting between openings of the casing and the tub and including circulation nozzles configured to supply water into the drum, and a conduit fixed to the gasket and guiding water to the circulation nozzles. The conduit includes an inlet port configured to receive water from the pump, a transport pipe configured to guide water from the inlet port to the circulation nozzles, and a supply ports configured to supply water to the circulation nozzles. A method for manufacturing a conduit includes positioning supply ports in a cavity defined at a first mold, forming a parison having a hollow opening by extruding a raw material, positioning the parison in the cavity, combining the first mold and a second mold, and injecting gas into the hollow opening of the parison.
Washing machine and method for assembling the same
Disclosed is a washing machine including: a gasket, wherein the gasket includes a plurality of nozzles provided on an inner circumferential surface of a gasket body to spray water into a drum, and a plurality of port receiving pipes protruding from an outer circumferential surface of the gasket body and respectively communicating with the plurality of nozzles; a distribution pipe supplying water pumped by a pump to the plurality of nozzles; and a first balancer disposed at a front surface of a tub. At least a portion of the first balancer is spaced apart from the outer circumferential surface of the gasket body, and at least a portion of a transport conduit of the distribution pipe is disposed in a space between the first balancer and the gasket body, and accordingly, separation of the distribution pipe from the gasket is prevented.
COMBINATION WASHER/DRYER WITH A DOUBLE-SEAL CLOSURE ARRANGEMENT
A combination washing and drying machine including a chassis defining a chassis interior and a chassis opening, a tub located within the chassis interior and defining a access opening, a drying air circuit, a wash liquid circuit, a closure selectively movable relative to the chassis between an opened position, where the access opening is accessible, and a closed position, where the access opening is inaccessible, a fluid seal, and a thermal seal. The fluid seal configured to seal the tub relative to the closure when the closure is in the closed position. The thermal seal configured to seal the closure relative to the chassis when in the closed position.
Washing machine
A present disclosure provides a washing machine including first and second nozzles which are provided on an inner peripheral surface of a gasket, first and second balancers disposed on the front surface of the tub and outside the gasket, and a circulating water supply pipe which guides the water pumped by a pump to the first and second nozzles. The circulating water supply pipe includes first and second discharge ports protruding toward the gasket and respectively inserted into a first connector and a second connector. The first and second balancers are disposed to be spaced by a distance shorter than lengths of the first and second discharge ports from outer surfaces of the first and second discharge portions facing the first and second balancers. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the circulating water supply pipe from being removed.
Laundry treating apparatus and method for controlling the same
A laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet, a tub, a drum rotatably disposed inside the tub, an elastic member to connect, to the cabinet, a portion of the tub body above a horizontal line passing through a rotation center of the drum; first and second dampers to connect, to the cabinet, a portion of the tub body located below the horizontal line; and a third damper to connect, to the cabinet, a portion of the tub body located below the horizontal line. A first location is defined as one of left and right portions in the tub body relative to a vertical line passing through the rotation center of the drum, while a second location is defined as the other portion. The first damper and second damper are disposed at the first location. The third damper is disposed at the second location.
WASHING MACHINE HAVING CIRCULATION NOZZLES
A washing machine includes a casing having an input port which is formed in a front surface thereof and to which laundry is inputted; a tub which is disposed in the casing to contain fluid, and has an opening communicating with the input port; a drum which is rotatably disposed in the tub, and contains the laundry; a pump which pumps water discharged from the tub; a circulation conduit which guides the water pumped by the pump; an annular gasket which forms a channel connecting the input port and the opening of the tub, and has a plurality of nozzles for spraying water into the drum on an inner circumferential surface defining the channel; and a nozzle water supply conduit which is fixed to the gasket, and supplies the water pumped by the pump to the plurality of nozzles.
Laundry treating apparatus
A laundry treating apparatus includes: a cabinet with an inlet and a door; a tub having a tub inlet; a drum inside the tub and having a drum inlet; an insulator including a first clamp body fixed to the inlet, a second clamp fixed to the tub inlet, a connecting body connecting the first clamp body with the second clamp body and forming a space therebetween to store liquid, and an inlet pipe passing through the first clamp body; a storage inside the cabinet for storing detergent; a storage connecting pipe for discharging the detergent; an insulator connecting pipe connected to the inlet pipe; a trap forming pipe between the storage connecting pipe and the insulator connecting pipe; a guide provided in the first clamp body, guiding the liquid discharged from the inlet pipe toward the tub inlet; and a connecting path connecting the guide with the connecting body.
SELF-CLEANING DRUM WASHING MACHINE
A self-cleaning drum washing machine, comprises a coaxial drum and outer tub. Cleaning particles are arranged between the drum and the outer tub. Structures between the drum and the outer tub opposite to each other are smooth. A flange is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drum; the outer portion of the flange has a smooth structure or an enclosed cavity is arranged on the outer portion of the drum bottom; the flange is arranged in the cavity; a shaft hole is arranged at the center of the cavity; and a drum shaft sticks into the cavity through the shaft hole and is connected to the flange. The smooth structures go against the attachment of dirt, so that the outer wall of the drum and the inner wall of the outer tub can be conveniently cleaned by the cleaning particles.
