Bearing cage 24 is formed on the rear surface of outer bucket 20, and rotating shaft 43 passes described bearing cage 24, and bearing 21 is positioned on the described bearing cage 24, is used to prevent the rotation when rotating shaft 43 rotations of outer bucket 20.
In one embodiment, be provided with vibration absorber 71 and 80, be used to reduce because the swing of the outer bucket 20 that the vibration of interior bucket 30 causes, described in the vibration of bucket 30 be owing to cause local layout of clothing to produce according to the weight of the clothing in the bucket 30 in the rotation of interior bucket 30.
Extremely shown in Figure 5 as Fig. 3, vibration absorber 71 and 80 comprises pair of supporting members 71 and damper unit 80, described pair of supporting members 71 is installed on the overall diameter relative position partly of outer bucket 30, damper unit 80 is set to the direct spring bearing cover 24 of one end, and the other end is fixed on the basal surface of shell 10.
One end of supporting member 71 is fixed to the overall diameter left side and the right side partly of the front area of outer bucket 20, and the other end of supporting member 71 is fixed to the basal surface of shell 10.
For example, supporting member 71 can adopt common hydraulic buffer or pneumatic shock absorber.
Damper unit 80 comprises: the shock absorber member 81 that uses hydraulic pressure or air pressure; First support 83 is fixed to bearing cage 24 with an end of shock absorber member 81; Second support 84 is used for the other end of shock absorber member 81 is fixed to the basal surface of shell 10.
The elastic component 82 that is used to help to reduce vibration can be arranged between the shock absorber member 81 and first support 83.Although present embodiment exemplarily illustrates helical spring as elastic component 82,, can provide various types of parts of spring function that can provide as elastic component 82.
For example, the antivibration member of being made by rubber or silicon 85 and 86 is separately positioned on the contact portion between first support 83 and the shock absorber member 81, and the contact portion between second support 84 and the shock absorber member 81, thereby secondary absorbs vibration.
Damper unit 80 is set directly on the bearing cage 24, thereby prevents that effectively the moment that outer bucket 20 applies owing to the initial driving stage at drive unit 40 from causing damaging.In addition, even save the traditional counterweight that is installed in opening part, the damper unit 80 of spring bearing cover 24 also can prevent outer bucket 20 eccentric rotations, thereby shows effectiveness in vibration suppression.
On the part adjacent with bearing cage 24 that support component 25 is formed on outer bucket 20, first support 83 is installed on the described support component 25.
As shown in Figure 5, shock absorber member 81 extends vertically downward from the middle part of outer bucket 20, and be fixed to the basal surface of shell 10, and, as shown in Figure 4, shock absorber member 81 tilt to make its end that is fixed to bearing cage 24 than its other end of basal surface that is fixed to shell 10 more near the front portion of shell 10, therefore, stably reduce by outer barrel 20 vibration.
Fig. 6 is the perspective view that illustrates according to the outer bucket supporting construction of the washing machine of at least one embodiment.
As shown in Figure 6, first support 83 ' is modified to the outer surface that shock absorber member 81 can be fixed directly to bearing cage 24, and the part adjacent with bearing cage 24 that not be used in outer bucket 20 is provided with any independent support component, thereby makes shock absorber member 81 more closely be fixed to bearing cage 24.In addition, shock absorber member 81 can be fixed to bearing cage 24 by the whole bag of tricks according to design.
Fig. 7 is the longitudinal sectional view that illustrates according to the washing machine of at least one embodiment.
In Fig. 7, comprise vertically arranged a plurality of washings unit (for example, two washing unit) according to the washing machine of at least one embodiment, distinguish the ground washing clothes with amount or kind according to clothing.In the present embodiment, the first washing unit that will be used for the clothing of washing a large amount of (for example, 10 kilograms or more than) is installed in the bottom, and the second washing unit that will be used for the few small amount of the amount of the wash ratio first washing unit is installed in top.
Although the first washing unit can have identical capacity with the second washing unit,, if necessary, characteristics according to washing machine with a plurality of washings unit, the first washing unit can have different capacity with the second washing unit, that is, and and big capacity and low capacity.Thereby,, have only the second washing unit operation of low capacity, thereby prevent unnecessary power consumption if wish washing a spot of clothing (especially, in the high-temperature wash program).
Owing to have identical configuration with washing unit according to the washing machine of another embodiment at least of Fig. 1 according to the second washing unit of at least one embodiment, and the second washing unit is fixed to the top of the first washing unit, therefore, more essentially identical parts of parts with in the previous embodiment of the second washing unit of present embodiment are represented with identical label, even these parts are illustrated in the different accompanying drawings.Owing to consider non-essential, omitted the detailed description of these parts.
The basic configuration of the first washing unit is identical with the basic configuration according to the washing machine of previous embodiment, and therefore, the first washing unit comprises shell 100, door 102, outer bucket 120, interior barrel 130, water supply installation 150 and tapping equipment 160.
Although present embodiment shows the drive unit 140 of direct-driving type motor as the first washing unit, drive unit 140 can comprise drive motors, conveyer belt, belt pulley, as in the foregoing embodiment.
In order to support outer bucket 120, a pair of first shock absorber 170 of the front portion of bucket 120 outside the support is set, and a pair of second shock absorber 175 that supports outer barrel 120 rear portion, thereby the vibration of the outer bucket 120 of minimizing.
In the present embodiment, because the second washing unit is installed in the top of the first washing unit, so the vibration of the second washing unit can be passed to the first washing unit.Especially, if the first washing unit and the second washing unit move simultaneously, then can produce the bigger vibration of vibration that produces than operation owing to single washing unit.In the present embodiment, because the direct spring bearing cover of shock absorber member of the second washing unit can reduce vibration effectively with vibration damping, thereby, also can prevent the vibration aggravation of washing machine even the first washing unit and the second washing unit move simultaneously.
Here, if the lower surface of the upper surface of the first washing unit and the second washing unit forms respectively, then the vibration absorber 71 and 80 of the second washing unit can be fixed to the lower surface of the shell 10 of the second washing unit, if use solid memder to make the lower surface of the upper surface of the first washing unit and the second washing unit integrally formed, then the vibration absorber 71 and 80 of the second washing unit can be fixed to the upper surface of the shell 100 of the first washing unit.
In addition, but the lower surface opening of the upper surface of the first washing unit and the second washing unit, thus the inside of the washing unit of winning and the inside of the second washing unit are interconnected.In this case, between the first washing unit and the second washing unit independent supporting bracket is installed, the supporting member 71 and the damper unit 80 of the second washing unit are supported by described supporting bracket.
Be clear that by foregoing description, according to the washing machine of at least one embodiment and outside in the bucket supporting construction, therefore the direct spring bearing cover of damper unit has reduced the vibration of outer bucket.Although illustrated and described at least one embodiment, but those skilled in the art are noted that, without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, can make a change these embodiment, scope of the present invention is limited by claim and equivalent thereof.
