As shown in fig. 1, in one embodiment of the present invention, preferably, the laundry treating apparatus 1 further includes a door assembly 15, the door assembly 15 being for closing the opening; the door assembly 15 is connected to the tub 12, and the door assembly 15 is opened obliquely according to the inclination of the central axis of the tub 12, or the door assembly 15 is rotatably connected to the case 11.

In this embodiment, the laundry treating apparatus 1 further includes a door assembly 15, and the door assembly 15 is used to close the opening. Wherein the door assembly 15 is connected with the drum 12, and the door assembly 15 is tilted to open with the tilt of the central axis of the drum 12, i.e. the door assembly 15 moves and/or tilts synchronously with the drum 12. When the user opens the door assembly 15, the barrel 12 can be directly pulled out of the housing 11, the structure is simple, and the operation process is simplified. Alternatively, the door assembly 15 may be pivotally connected to the housing 11, such that when a user places or takes clothes, the door assembly 15 may be opened first, and then the barrel portion 12 may be moved and/or tilted.

In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the telescoping pole 14 and equidistant drive assembly preferably cooperate to tilt the slot up or down.

In this embodiment, the telescopic rod 14 and the equidistant transmission assembly can be set as a structure which drives the object throwing port to incline upwards after being matched or a structure which drives the object throwing port to incline downwards after being matched according to requirements, so as to meet different use scenes. Particularly, the feeding port of the pulsator washing machine is often located at the top of the barrel 12, and when a side door is opened, the feeding port can be inclined downwards, so that the action of a user is more comfortable when the user takes and places clothes, and the extending volume of the barrel 12 extending out of the shell 11 can be reduced, thereby reducing the reserved space in front of the opening of the pulsator washing machine, being capable of being used even in a relatively narrow space, and improving the space adaptability of the pulsator washing machine. For drum type washing machine, though the structure that side opened the door has been adopted, its throw thing mouth often lower, through making throw thing mouth tilt up, equally can improve user's the angle of getting put, promote user experience.
