Abstract

PURPOSE: To prevent laundry from being bitten and to eliminate the damaging accident of the laundry by attaching a deformable cover to the front end of a partition plate and abutting the cover to an opening/closing door so as to be in slidable contact. CONSTITUTION: To the front end of respective partition plates 3, a cover 8 composed of a rubber spatula is freely attachably and detachably attached by a machine screw. The cover 8 is formed into a size over the entire length of the front end of the partition plates 3 and the tip of the cover 8 is abutted to the glass surface 9 of an opening/closing door 5 so as to be in slidable contact. When a washing drum 2 is rotated, since the cover 8 is brought into slidable contact with a glass surface 9 and closes a clearance 6 between the partition plates 3 and the glass surface 9 at all times, the laundry is prevented from being bitten and stable work is performed.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a washer-extractor.

[Conventional technology]

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a washing drum 2 for storing laundry to be washed is rotatably installed in a washing tub 1 as a washing dehydrator. Some devices are provided with a partition plate 3 that partitions in different directions.

Loading and unloading of laundry items into and out of the laundry drum 2 is done through the drum 2.
On the front side of the washing tub 1, an opening/closing door 5 for closing the loading opening 4 is provided.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the washer-extractor with the above structure, the drum 2 is replaced by the washing tub 1.
In order to be able to rotate the partition plate 3 and the opening/closing door 5,
A gap 6 is created between the washing drum 2 and the washing drum 2, so that when the washing drum 2 is rotated to perform washing and dewatering operations, the laundry to be washed is likely to get caught in the gap 6 and be damaged.

As a protection measure, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 6, a lid 7 that matches the shape of the opening 4 of the washing drum 2 is attached to the loading opening 4 to prevent the laundry from getting caught. It is. However, in this method, the lid 7 must be opened and closed every time the laundry is taken in and out of the drum 2, which causes problems in that the work is time-consuming and the work efficiency is poor.

On the other hand, attempts have been made to make the gap 6 as small as possible, but as long as the gap 6 exists, objects to be washed will get caught, and damage to the objects to be washed cannot be completely prevented.

This invention was made with the aim of solving the above problems.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the present invention attaches a deformable cover to the front end of the temporary partition, and makes this cover slidably contact the opening/closing door. It was structured as follows.

That is, in the above configuration, the cover closes the gap between the partition plate and the opening/closing door to prevent the objects to be washed from being caught.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The washer-extractor of this embodiment has basically the same structure as the conventional one shown in FIG. 1, and as shown in FIG. 3, a cover 8 made of a rubber spatula is attached to the front end of each partition plate 3 with screws. It is attached removably. The size of this cover 8 is formed to cover the entire length of the front end of the partition plate 3,
The tip of the cover 8 is slidably in contact with the glass surface of the opening/closing door 5. In the washing/extracting machine configured as described above, when the washing drum 2 rotates, the cover 8 comes into sliding contact with the glass surface 9 to always close the gap 6 between the partition plate 3 and the glass surface 9. This prevents objects to be washed from getting caught in the washing machine, allowing stable work to be carried out.

In FIG. 4, the cover 8 uses a stretchable rubber seal.

Further, FIG. 5 shows an example in which a resin brush is used for the cover 8. In this way, any material can be used for the cover 8 as long as it is deformable and soft enough to not damage the glass surface or the like when it comes into sliding contact.

〔effect〕

As described above, in the present invention, since the gap between the partition plate and the opening/closing door is closed by the cover, it is possible to prevent the objects to be washed from getting caught, and it is possible to eliminate accidents in which the objects to be washed are damaged.
