The present invention relates to a drain control lever in the drain valve opening and closing structure of the washing machine, and more particularly, to a drain line operating rod that can adjust the distance the drain line is used to open and close the drain valve.

Conventional two-type washing machine is composed of a washing tank and a dehydration tank, each having a separate function, there is a bearing as a means for rotatably mounting the pulsator mounted in the washing tank and the electric motor for supplying rotational force to the pulsator, from the laundry As a means for removing water, there is a dehydration container rotatably mounted in the dehydration tank and a dehydration motor that rotates the dehydration container to supply rotational force for removing water contained in laundry, and includes a timer and water flow for convenience of use. A changeover switch, a drain valve and a buzzer can be mounted.

The drainage method of the conventional two tank type washing machine configured as described above includes a natural drainage method and a forced drainage method.

Natural drainage is a structure that can be used in areas where the location of the washing machine can be installed higher than the sewer, which drains the wash water from the washing or dehydrating tank of the washing machine by gravity.

The forced drainage system is a drainage structure that is frequently used in areas where the washing machine is installed below the sewerage system. The drainage pump is installed separately to drain the washing water to the outside of the washing machine by the pumping power of the drainage pump. Drainage structure of the washing machine.

Figure 1 schematically shows a two-chamber washing machine using a natural drainage method.

The natural drainage structure includes a drain hose (4), a dewatering tank drainage pipe (5) and a washing tank drainage pipe (6), which drain the washing water introduced from the dewatering tank drain pipe (5) and the washing tank drain pipe (6) to the drain hole (8). 4) a drain valve (4) fluidly connected to the water and controlling the flow of the wash water to be drained, a dehydration tank drain pipe (5) coupled between the bottom of the dehydration tank and the drain valve (4), the lower part of the washing tank and the drain valve (4 It consists of a washing tub drain pipe (6) coupled between the and the overflow pipe (7) coupled between the washing tank top and the drain (8).

In the drainage structure configured as described above, the drainage valve 4 has a built-in drainage bellows and a drainage control lever 9 is mounted on the rear panel of the upper part of the washing machine, and the lower end portion and the drainage control lever 9 of the drainage bellows are mounted. The drainage line 2 is connected between the drainage line 12 of the operation bar.

As shown in FIG. 2, the drain control lever 9 is rotatably mounted to the housing 11 and the housing 11 for mounting the drain line operating rod 12 and the operation handle 10. As shown in FIG. A drainage line operating rod 12 having a drain line 2 fixed at one end thereof, and an operating handle 10 mounted on the housing 11 to operate the drainage line operating rod 12. When the handle 10 is switched to the drainage position, the drain line fixing part 15 of the drain line operation bar 12 is pulled upward, and the drain line 2 is pulled accordingly to open the drain valve 4 to discharge the washing water. When the operation knob 10 is switched to the washing position, the drain line fixing part 15 of the drain line operating rod 12 is lowered, and the drain line 2 is relaxed, thereby closing the drain valve 4. Discharge of the wash water is stopped.

In the drainage structure having the opening and closing structure of the drainage valve 4 as described above, the distance at which the drainage line 2 is pulled by the drainage line operating rod 12 is the rotational portion 14 and the drainage height of the drainage line operating rod 12. It depends on the distance between the government (15), but the conventional drain line operating bar 12 is because the distance between the rotating portion 14 and the drain line fixing unit 15 is fixed fixedly, the standardized drain line operating bar (12) The distance between the drain valve 4 and the drain control lever 9 varies even when a small change occurs in the fixed position of the drain control lever 9 or the drain valve 4 when the drain control lever 9 composed of Even when the drain control lever 9 is operated, there is a problem that the drain valve 4 does not operate.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the disadvantage of the structure of the drain line operation rod mounted on the drain control rubber in the conventional drain valve opening and closing structure, and the degree of pulling the drain line according to the change of the distance between the drain valve and the drain control lever. It is an object of the present invention to provide a drainage control lever equipped with a drainage rod that can adjust the pressure.

The present invention having such a purpose is to extend the drain line operation bar for pulling and releasing the drain line and to form a multi-stage drain line fixing part.

Hereinafter, the configuration will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in Figure 3, the drainage control lever according to the present invention is a drainage control lever of the conventional washing machine, the drainage line operating rod that serves to pull the drainage line 2 is fixed to the drainage line ( 12) it is characterized in that to form a multi-stage to determine the drainage determination section (15).

The drain line operation bar 12 extends the length of the conventional drain line operation bar 12 and forms a drain line fixing part 15 in the extended portion between the drain valve 4 and the drain control lever 9. The position where the drain line 2 is fixed may vary according to the distance of.

Based on the above-described configuration and description will be described in detail with reference to the drawings the operation according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The drainage control lever according to the present invention can adjust the distance by which the drainage line 2 is pulled by changing the fixed position of the drainage line 2. Therefore, when a change occurs in the distance between the drain valve 4 and the drain control lever 9, opening and closing of the drain valve 4 can be made smooth by adjusting the fixed position of the drain line 2 appropriately to the changed distance. have.

The present invention as described above, by adjusting the fixed position of the drain line is provided with an effect that can easily adjust the degree of pulling the drain line in accordance with the distance change between the drain valve and the drain control lever.

Although the present invention has been described in detail only with respect to the embodiments described above, it can be changed or modified within the spirit and scope of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs and such changes or modifications are registered utility model attached It should be limited by the claims.
