  • the drain pump 100 includes a pump case 101 in which a wash water inlet chamber 110 and a drain pump chamber 120 are defined, and a pump filter 102 mounted in the wash water inlet chamber 110.
  • the pump case 101 has a cylindrical shape and is provided with a bracket 103 to couple the pump case 101 to the body 10. Both ends of the cylindrical pump case 101 are open.
  • the pump filter 102 and an impeller 121 that will be described hereinafter are coupled respectively to both the open ends of the cylindrical pump case 101.
  • the cylindrical pump case 101 is coupled to the body 10 such that a peripheral portion of the cylindrical pump case 101 faces the bottom surface of the body 10.
  • the wash water inlet chamber 110 is defined in the pump case 101. During operation of the drain pump 100, the wash water stored in the tub 11 is introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110 through the first drain pipe 50.
  • the drain pump 100 further includes a wash water inlet port 130 provided at a lateral position of a peripheral surface of the pump case 101.

  • the wash water inlet port 130 is located higher than a wash water suction port 150 that will be described hereinafter.
  • the air introduced along with the wash water is located above the wash water and therefore, positioning the wash water inlet port 130 higher than the wash water suction port 150 may minimize the amount of air to be introduced, along with the wash water, into the drain pump chamber 120 through the wash water suction port 150.
  • the drain pump chamber 120 is adapted to suction the wash water introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110 and discharge the wash water to the outside of the body 10.
  • the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the drain pump chamber 120 may be neighbor to each other in a longitudinal direction within the cylindrical pump case 101.
  • the impeller 121 is mounted in the drain pump chamber 120 and serves to forcibly suction the wash water from the wash water inlet chamber 110 and discharge the wash water from the drain pump chamber 120.
  • a pumping motor 122 is connected to the impeller 121. As the impeller 121 is rotated by the pumping motor 122, The impeller 121 suctions the interior wash water of the wash water inlet chamber 110 in a lateral direction and discharges the wash water in a radial direction.
  • the drain pump 100 further includes a wash water outlet port 140 provided at an upper position of the peripheral surface of the pump case 101.
  • the wash water outlet port 140 internally communicates with the drain pump chamber 120 and is externally connected to a second drain pipe 60. All the wash water suctioned into the drain pump chamber 120 and the air directed into the drain pump chamber 120 through an air discharge path 160 that will be described hereinafter are discharged out of the body 10 through the wash water outlet port 140 and the second drain pipe 60.
  • the wash water outlet port 140 may be oriented perpendicular to the bottom surface of the body 10. In this case, the wash water inlet port 130 provided at the lateral position of the pump case 101 and the wash water outlet port 140 provided at the upper position of the pump case 101 are perpendicular to each other.
  • the wash water outlet port 140 may have a circular shape, and may protrude outward from the pump case 101 for connection with the second drain pipe 60.
  • the air is introduced into the drain pump chamber 120 through the air discharge path 160.
  • the wash water outlet port 140 is located close to the air discharge path 160, to allow the air having passed through the air discharge path 160 to be directly discharged rather than staying in the drain pump chamber 120.
  • the wash water outlet port 140 may be located at a distance of 10 mm or less from the air discharge path 160.
  • the wash water passing through the wash water outlet port 140 may have a higher velocity than that of the wash water passing through the wash water suction port 150. If the area of an exit is smaller than the area of an entrance, the velocity of a fluid at the exit may be increased. Since the wash water suction port 150 corresponds to the entrance of the drain pump chamber 120 and the wash water outlet port 140 corresponds to the exit of the drain pump chamber 120, the velocity of the wash water passing through the wash water outlet port 140 may be increased if the area of the wash water outlet port 140 is smaller than the area of the wash water suction port 150. Accordingly, the area of the wash water outlet port 140 may be smaller than the area of the wash water suction port 150.
  • the wash water suction port 150 is located between the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the drain pump chamber 120.
  • the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the drain pump chamber 120 are arranged side by side within the pump case 101 and communicate with each other through the wash water suction port 150. If the drain pump 100 is operated, the wash water introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110 is suctioned into the drain pump chamber 120 through the wash water suction port 150.
  • the air discharge path 160 is located between the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the drain pump chamber 120, to allow the air inside the wash water inlet chamber 110 to be discharged through the wash water outlet port 140.
  • a conventional drain pump uses an additional air discharge pipe, and this increases the number of places that necessitate leakage management and an additional operation of connecting the air discharge pipe to the drain pump and the tub increases the number of overall processes.
  • the air discharge path 160 substitutes for the air discharge pipe, allowing the air introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110 during pumping of the wash water to be directed into the drain pump chamber 120 and consequently, be discharged out of the drain pump 100.
  • the air discharge path 160 communicates with the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the other end communicates with the drain pump chamber 120.
  • the air discharge path 160 may have a constant cross sectional area from one end to the other end thereof.
  • the air inside the wash water inlet chamber 110 is directed into the drain pump chamber 120 through the air discharge path 160, and then, is discharged to the outside of the body 10 through the wash water outlet port 140 and the second drain pipe 60.
  • the air is directed into the drain pump chamber 120 under a pressure difference between one end and the other end of the air discharge path 160.
  • the air discharge path 160 may be located to communicate the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the drain pump chamber 120 with each other at a position as high as possible, and at least, may be located higher than the wash water suction port 150.
  • the air discharge path 160 has an exit communicating with the drain pump chamber 120, and the exit of the air discharge path 160 is located at a radial outward position of the impeller 121. This may serve to prevent the air directed into the drain pump chamber 120 from coming into direct contact with the impeller 121, thereby preventing deterioration in the rotation efficiency of the impeller 121 and generation of noise.
  • the air discharge path 160 may have a smaller cross sectional area than those of the wash water suction port 150 and the wash water outlet port 140.
  • the drain pump 100 may further include a partition 170 placed between the wash water inlet chamber 110 and the drain pump chamber 120.
  • the wash water suction port 150 and the air discharge path 160 are formed at the partition 170.
  • the wash water suction port 150 may protrude from the partition 170 into the wash water inlet chamber 110 to define a protruding entrance. If the protruding entrance of the wash water suction port 150 is located close to the wash water inlet port 130, the wash water introduced through the wash water inlet port 130 may be directly suctioned into the drain pump chamber 120 through the protruding entrance of the wash water suction port 150 without undergoing unnecessary movement in the wash water inlet chamber 110.
  • the protruding entrance of the wash water suction port 150 may define an air accommodation space between the upper inner wall surface of the wash water inlet chamber 110 and an outer peripheral surface of the wash water suction port 150, thereby minimizing the amount of air to be suctioned into the drain pump chamber 120 through the wash water suction port 150.
  • the pump filter 102 includes a head portion 102a coupled to the pump case 101, and a filter portion (not shown) placed in the wash water inlet chamber 110 to capture impurities contained in the wash water introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110.
  • a periphery of the head portion 102a is fastened to the pump case 101 by screws, and a grip 102b is provided at a front surface of the head portion 102a to allow a user to grip and rotate the head portion 102a.
  • FIG. 6 is a view illustrating operation of the drain pump in the washing machine according to the embodiment.
  • the impeller 121 mounted in the drain pump chamber 120 is driven when draining the wash water. If the impeller 121 is rotated, the interior wash water of the tub 11 is introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110 through the first drain pipe 50 and the wash water inlet port 130, and then, is suctioned into the drain pump chamber 120 through the wash water suction port 150. Subsequently, by operation of the impeller 121, the wash water suctioned into the drain pump chamber 120 is forcibly directed to the wash water outlet port 140 and is discharged to the outside through the second drain pipe 60 ( FIG. 2 ).
  • the air mixed in the wash water is introduced into the wash water inlet chamber 110. Since the air is lighter than the wash water, the air is located in the upper region of the wash water inlet chamber 110. In this way, the air is located at one side of the air discharge path 160 communicating with the wash water inlet chamber 110, whereas the wash water moves at a high velocity toward the wash water outlet port 140 at the other side of the air discharge path 160 communicating with the drain pump chamber 120. Since one side of the air discharge path 160 has a higher pressure than the other end of the air discharge path 160, the air is directed into the drain pump chamber 120 through the air discharge path 160. Thereby, the air is discharged to the outside of the washing machine through the wash water outlet port 140 and the second drain pipe 60 along with the wash water.
  • a wash water inlet port of the drain pump is located higher than the center of a pump case of the drain pump such that air is located in an upper region of the drain pump. This may effectively prevent the air from being suctioned toward the impeller.
  • the drain pump is configured such that wash water is introduced in a tangential direction of an upper inner surface of the drain pump. This may reduce generation of noise due to movement of the wash water within the drain pump.
  • the drain pump may discharge the air, introduced into the drain pump during pumping of the wash water, to the outside without using a separate air discharge pipe or hose. This may minimize the number of pipes to be connected to the drain pump and consequently, reduce the number of places that necessitate leakage management. Furthermore, it may be possible to omit an operation of connecting the separate air discharge pipe or hose to the pump and a tub of the washing machine.
