A washing machine leg according to the present invention includes: a coupling rod having one end coupled to a lower side of a washing machine body; A damper main body coupled to the other end of the coupling rod; A damper part disposed on the underside of the damper main body in close contact with the underside of the damper main body so as to be in close contact with the ground surface to support the washing machine main body with respect to the ground surface and reduce vibration transmitted from the washing machine main body; And a tightening rod coupled to the buffer portion and the damper main body at a lower side of the buffer portion to closely contact the buffer portion and the damper main body in a vertical direction.
The washing leg according to the present invention can stably support the washing machine by effectively damping the vibration generated in the washing machine and the height of the washing machine leg can be adjusted through the coupling rod and the damper body is composed of the upper body and the lower body, So that it is very easy to adjust the height.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
Generally, a washing machine is a device for washing laundry through processes such as washing, rinsing and dehydration to remove contamination from clothes, bedding, etc. (hereinafter, referred to as laundry) by using water, detergent and mechanical action.
In the washing machine, a tub in which water or detergent is accommodated is disposed inside, a drum in which laundry is received is rotatably installed in the tub, and a motor for rotating the drum is mounted on the tub. Therefore, in the washing machine constructed as described above, when the laundry is put into the drum, and the water and the detergent are supplied into the tub, the drum is rotated by the motor to wash, rinse and dehydrate the laundry.
Meanwhile, a base is mounted on a lower surface of the washing machine, and a leg for supporting the load of the washing machine and adjusting the installation height and horizontal of the washing machine is installed on the base. The leg is composed of a bolt portion which is screwed on the four corner portions of the base so as to be adjustable in height and a bearing portion which is formed at a lower portion of the bolt portion and is seated in a place where the washing machine is installed, .
Therefore, as the legs are rotated, the bolts are loosened to the lower side of the base or fastened to the upper side of the base, so that the fastening positions of the legs are adjusted according to the installation conditions of the washing machine.
However, since the height adjustment structure of the washing machine according to the related art has a structure in which the height at which the legs are loosened from the base is not limited, there is a problem that the height of the washing machine and the legs are completely removed from the base or excessively loosened when the level is adjusted.
That is, the washing machine adjusts the height of the legs according to the installation conditions so that the installation height and the level are properly adjusted. However, since the length of the bolts of the legs is limited, there is a limit to the height at which the legs can be loosened. Therefore, if the height of the legs is adjusted according to the installation conditions of the washing machine without considering the height at which the legs can be loosened, the legs are excessively loosened and the washing machine is unstably supported.
As described above, if the legs are excessively loosened and the washing machine is unstably supported, vibration and noise are largely generated during operation of the washing machine, and a walking phenomenon occurs in which the washing machine is moved by vibration.
