  • the front and rear balancers 80 and 85 mounted in the front and at the rear of the drum 80 complementarily perform the balancing operation on the laundry 90 such that a relatively large amount of the eccentric force generated by the laundry 90 is eliminated by the front balancer 80, which is disposed adjacent to the laundry 90, and a relatively small amount of the eccentric force generated by the laundry 90 is eliminated by the rear balancer 85, which is disposed away from the laundry 90.
  • the front and rear balancers 80 and 85 mounted to the drum 30 complementarily eliminates the eccentric force generated by the laundry 90 and 95 wherever the laundry 90 and 95 is placed.
  • the drum type washing machine according to the present invention has the following effects.
  • the front and rear balancers are mounted at the front and rear sides of the drum, respectively, and therefore, the eccentric force generated by the laundry is complementarily eliminated by the front and rear balancers even when the laundry is eccentrically placed at one side of the drum.
  • the eccentric force generated by the laundry eccentrically placed in the drum is effectively eliminated by the front and rear balancers. Consequently, the present invention has the effect of reducing vibration generated when the drum is rotated.
