The first embodiment is as follows:

as shown in fig. 1-2, a support member 50 of a washing machine drum, the support member 50 includes a main body portion 52 and a hinge portion 53; the body portion 52 is an annular structure, and the body portion 52 is fixedly connected to the cylinder body of the keg assembly to realize the support of the keg assembly; the hinge part 53 rotates a hinge shaft connected to the washing machine body, so that the cylinder body of the keg assembly is opened and closed to the tub assembly of the washing machine.

The main body portion 52 and the hinge portion 53 are integrally formed or fixedly connected. It can be understood that, in the actual production process, the main body portion 52 and the hinge portion 53 are separately molded and then fixedly connected, and the production process is relatively simple.

The hinge 53 is a circular ring hinge. The hinge portion 53 includes a connection ring 531, and the connection ring 531 is fixedly connected to the main body portion 52, or the connection ring 531 is integrally formed with the main body portion 52.

In the present embodiment, the number of the connection ring 531 is at least two, and the connection ring 531 is fitted around the hinge shaft 72 and rotates with respect to the hinge shaft 72. The two connection rings are separated from each other, reducing stress concentration at the connection position, increasing the lifespan of the hinge shaft, and simultaneously preventing the support 50 from sagging.

In other embodiments, the connection ring 531 is a hollow tubular structure, and the hinge shaft 72 is located in the hollow portion for relative rotation therebetween.

The support 50 further comprises an optical slip ring 80, the smooth ring 80 being located inside the connection ring 531. Specifically, the smooth ring 80 is positioned between the connection ring 531 and the hinge shaft 72 to increase the smoothness therebetween, reduce the frictional force therebetween, and facilitate rotation. The optical slip ring 80 has a friction coefficient smaller than that of the connection ring 531 and the hinge shaft 72.

The body portion projects in a direction towards the keg assembly barrel with a connecting portion 51, the connecting portion 51 being connected to the small outer barrel 31 in the keg assembly. The support member 50 provided by the embodiment is mainly used for supporting the keg assembly 30 mounted on the door body, and the weight of the door body is increased due to the fact that the keg assembly 30 is additionally arranged on the door body, and the traditional door hinge assembly easily causes sagging of the door body due to the structural reason of the door hinge assembly. Therefore, in the present invention, the support member 50 is added as a support member, and the connecting portion 51 on the support member 50 is connected to the keg outer cylinder 31 in the keg assembly 30, so that the support member 50 is opened and closed together with the keg assembly 30 to the keg discharge opening of the keg assembly.

Specifically, the outer surface of the small outer cylinder 31 is projected with a projection 311 which is engaged with the connection part 51, and the connection part 51 is connected with the projection 311. Specifically, the connecting portion 51 is located at a position where the body portion 52 is convexly provided toward the keg assembly.

Referring to figure 8, the support member 50 has at least three connecting portions 51 which are evenly distributed in the direction of the body portion 52 towards the keg assembly. I.e. the support member 50 is connected to the keg assembly by a uniform plurality of points, distributing the stresses. The support member 50 of the present invention is more suitable for supporting a drum mounted on a door body than a conventional hinge having only a little connection with the door body.

The support member further includes an armrest portion 54, the armrest portion 54 protrudes from the main body portion 52, and the armrest portion 54 is disposed opposite to the hinge portion 53, so that a user can hold the armrest portion 54 to rotate the entire support member 50 to open and close.
