The idea underlying the invention can be similarly applied to washingmachines having for instance six or eight compartments, although this would entail some difliculties.
What I claim is: I 1. A washing machine having a horizontal,
perforated drum which is divided into four compartments by approximately radial partitions and is rotatable about a horizontal axis within a closed shell, each compartment being provided.

The machine can then adjacent the opening in the adjoining compartment, said shell being provided with two horizontally opposed charging and discharging openings adapted to simultaneously register with a pair of compartment openings, and each opening being provided with a door.
