DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a washing apparatus for washing clothes stored in a washing tub.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this type of washing machine has been configured as shown in FIG. Hereinafter, the configuration will be described.

[0003] As shown in FIG. 40, a washing tub 71 accommodates a garment 72 therein and supplies water or washing water from a water supply path 73 to wash a stirring blade 74 provided at an inner bottom portion of the washing tub 71. The rotation drive unit 75 provided below the tub 71 drives the washing machine via a speed reduction device 76 to perform washing. A drain hose 77 and the like are arranged on the outer periphery of the washing tub 71, and after the washing process, the drain hose 77 is tilted to drain water. Thus, the washing tub 71, the rotary drive unit 75, the drain hose 77 and the like are integrally configured.

[0004]

In such a conventional construction, in order to perform washing, the washing device itself must be transported to the place where the water supply means is provided or the place where the drain means is provided in order to perform the washing. In addition, in the case of transferring clothes after washing to a general washing machine or the like, it is necessary to transfer the clothes to another container such as a bucket.

In recent years, the trend of home washing machines has shifted from a two-tub washing machine to a fully automatic washing machine, and furthermore, a popular type washing machine has various washing functions. However, washing machines have become more versatile, and clothes that care about hygiene, such as underwear and towels, as well as dirty clothes such as rags and socks, must be washed in the same washing machine. From the viewpoint of hygiene, there has been a growing demand for a washing machine that can easily wash only highly soiled items before washing.

[0006] In recent years, the tendency of cleanliness to clean clothes is not as high as before, and as a whole, clothes which are not so dirty are increasing. However, very dirty clothing still exists, such as children's socks,
There is still a strong demand for washing, although the amount is small. Washing is possible with a large washing machine, but because of its large size, it consumes a large amount of water and detergent,
The number of washings also increases. Therefore, development of a washing device that can be easily washed with only a dirty one and that is easy to use has been awaited.

Further, due to the recent housing situation, even in a storage place, even if it is small as in the past, the washing apparatus takes up space. For this reason, it is necessary to develop a washing device having excellent storage properties.

[0008] Furthermore, with the recent diversification of garments, delicate garments such as women's underwear, which are deformed or discolored when collectively washed with a fully automatic washing machine or the like, are increasing. For this reason, even though the washing machine has evolved, there are still appliances such as buckets and tarai used as simple washing means at home, and clothes are often washed by hand. In addition to delicate items, buckets are also used for bleaching and gluing cutter shirts, pet clothing and wiping, and car washing.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and separates a washing tub from a driving base so that the washing tub and the driving base can be detachably attached to the washing tub. The purpose is to improve operability such as processing.

[0010]
