As shown in fig. 5, the drum-type washing machine 1 includes: a water tub 2 having a bottomed tubular shape disposed in the outer box 1a, a rotary tub 3 having a bottomed tubular shape rotatably disposed in the water tub 2, and a drum motor 4 attached to a rear portion of the water tub 2 and rotationally driving the rotary tub 3. The rear portion of the water tub 2 is elastically supported by two dampers 12 (only one of which is shown in fig. 5). The rotary tub 3 accommodates laundry and has a slightly smaller diameter than the water tub 2. In the drum-type washing machine 1, the rotation axis J of the rotary tub 3 normally extends obliquely to the horizontal direction so that the front side is higher than the rear side, i.e., so as to face obliquely upward. The rotation axis J may extend substantially parallel to the horizontal direction. The rotary tub 3 is an example of a rotary tub, and the drum motor 4 is an example of a driving device.
The rotary tub 3, which functions as a drum for storing laundry such as laundry, is configured such that a front rotary tub opening 26 faces the inside of the water tub opening 16 of the water tub 2. The rotary tub opening 26 is disposed so that at least a part of the rotary tub opening 26 faces the outer box opening.

A large number of small through holes 27 are formed in the peripheral wall of the rotary tub 3 so as to extend over the entire surface. Further, a plurality of baffles 28 extending in the axial direction are provided so as to protrude from the inner surface of the rotary tub 3 so as to be equally spaced in the circumferential direction. In fig. 2, a part of the through hole 27 and one shutter 28 are illustrated for simplicity.
An annular decorative member 17 is disposed on the outer box front surface portion 103 of the outer box 1 a. The ring-shaped decorative member 17 has an outer box opening 6 for taking out and putting in laundry at a position facing the water tub opening 16 of the water tub 2. The outer box opening 6 is configured to face the water tank opening 16 of the water tank 2 and the rotary tank opening 26 of the rotary tank 3. The circular water tank opening 16 and the circular rotary tank opening 26 are formed coaxially. The opening edge of outer box opening 6 and the opening edge of water tub opening 16 are connected by a corrugated connecting member (not shown), and this structure liquid-tightly seals the space between outer box 1a and water tub 2.
A drain pipe 19 is connected to the circumferential surface of the water tank 2 near the bottom plate, which is the lowermost position. The drain pipe 19 is connected to a cylindrical drain filter device 20 fixed and supported at the front lower portion inside the outer box 1 a. A lint filter 70 for collecting foreign matter such as lint contained in the washing water or the rinsing water in the water tank 2 is housed in the drain filter device 20. The lower portion of the drain filter device 20 is connected to a drain hose 21 disposed along the bottom surface of the outer box 1a via a drain valve 22. When the drain valve 22 is opened, the washing water or the rinsing water in the water tub 2 is discharged to the outside of the water tub 2 through the drain pipe 19, the drain filter device 20, and the drain hose 21. Foreign matter contained in the washing water or the rinsing water in the water tank 2 is collected by the lint filter 70 in the drain filter device 20 and removed from the washing water or the rinsing water. When the circulation pump 24 is driven in a state where the drain valve 22 is closed, the liquid in the water tank 2 can be discharged to the outside of the water tank 2 and returned to the water tank 2 through the drain pipe 19 and the circulation pipe. The drainage filter device 20 also accommodates the thread dust filter 70.
A gasket 18 made of an elastomer such as rubber or soft resin is disposed at an opening edge of the outer box opening 6 formed in the decorative member 17. Thus, when door 50 is closed, protruding closing portion 56 of door 50 is brought into close contact with gasket 18, and the liquid in water tub 2 can be prevented from leaking to the outside.
The damper 12 has a cylinder portion in which oil is sealed, and a piston rod whose upper end portion enters the cylinder portion. The lower end portion of the piston rod is attached to the damper support metal fitting via a damper bushing made of an elastic material (for example, nitrile rubber).
When the drum-type washing machine 1 has a drying function, a heat pump unit (not shown) for drying laundry is disposed below the water tub 2 and on the rear surface side. In the drying operation, the heat pump unit introduces air containing moisture of laundry from the rotating rotary tub 3, dehumidifies and heats the air containing moisture, and introduces dry hot air into the rotary tub 3.
The structure of the door 50 of the drum-type washing machine 1 will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 6 and 10.
(Structure of door 50)
As shown in fig. 1, the door 50 includes a door main body 51 and an inclined portion 52. The door main body portion 51 has a quadrangular shape in front view and extends in a substantially vertical direction. The quadrangle of the door main body 51 includes a rectangle, a square, a trapezoid, and the like, and also includes a form in which corners thereof have roundness. The inclined portion 52 is positioned above the door body 51, and is inclined rearward with respect to a door front surface plate portion 69 extending in a substantially vertical direction in front view. That is, the inclined portion 52 is inclined such that the upper end portion 67 of the inclined portion 52 is positioned rearward of the door main body portion 51.
As shown in fig. 3, the door 50 is pivotally supported on the outer box front surface portion 103 of the outer box 1a in a freely rotatable manner by two hinges 65 interposed between the outer box front surface portion 103 of the outer box 1a and the door frame portion 68 of the door 50. The upper and lower hinges 65 are provided on one side of the outer box 1 a.
From the viewpoint of the operability and visual confirmation of the display operation unit 54, the ratio of the surface area of the inclined portion 52 (i.e., the display operation unit 54) to the surface area of the door main body portion 51 is, for example, 1/20 to 1/4. From the viewpoint of operability and visual confirmation of the display operation unit 54, the inclination angle of the inclined portion 52 (i.e., the display operation unit 54) with respect to the door front surface portion 69 of the door main body portion 51 is, for example, 20 degrees to 45 degrees, and preferably 25 degrees to 35 degrees. The inclination angle is not limited to the numerical value of the embodiment, and is, for example, about 33 degrees.
(Structure of door body 51)
As shown in fig. 1, 3, and 11, the door main body 51 includes: a flat plate-shaped door front surface panel portion 69, a door base member 64, left and right door frame portions 68, a protruding closing portion 56 protruding rearward, and a substantially flat plate-shaped main body rear surface lid portion 62.

The door front surface panel portion 69 is made of a material having light transmittance (for example, a glass material), and the protruding closing portion 56 is also made of a material having light transmittance (for example, a resin material). Therefore, when the inside of the rotary tub 3 is viewed from the front surface side of the door 50, the inside of the rotary tub 3 can be visually confirmed through the door front surface panel portion 69 and the protruding closing portion 56. The door front surface panel portion 69 is attached to the front surface side of the door base member 64, and the body rear surface cover 62 is attached to the rear surface side of the door base member 64. The side portion of main body rear surface cover 62 is formed to have a smaller size than the side portion of door frame 68, and is contracted inward in the width direction (left-right direction) than the side portion of door frame 68. Thus, a stepped portion 63 is formed on the side portion of the body rear surface cover portion 62. The door front surface panel portion 69 is adhered to the front surface portion of the door base member 64 and held by the left and right door frame portions 68.
As shown in fig. 3 and 5, the protruding closing portion 56 has a mountain-shaped rear top portion protruding rearward and a base portion corresponding to a mountain foot portion of the mountain. The protruding closing portion 56 is configured such that a part of the rear top thereof is inserted into the water tank opening portion 16 when the door 50 is closed. The main body rear surface cover portion 62 has an opening for inserting most of the mountain-shaped portion of the protruding closed portion 56. In a state where the mountain-shaped portion of the protruding closing portion 56 is inserted into the opening of the main body rear surface cover portion 62, the base portion of the protruding closing portion 56 is sandwiched between the rear surface portion of the door base member 64 and the front surface portion of the main body rear surface cover portion 62. Thereby, the protruding closing portion 56 is held by the door base member 64 and the main body rear surface cover portion 62. When the door 50 is closed, the protruding closed portion 56 of the door 50 covers the outer box opening 6, and the outer peripheral surface of the protruding closed portion 56 is in close contact with the gasket 18, so that the outer box opening 6 is closed, and thus the liquid in the water tank 2 can be prevented from leaking to the outside.
As shown in fig. 5, the drain filter device 20 in which the lint filter 70 is loaded is provided on a lower side (hinge 65 side) of the hinge 65 on the lower side of the outer box front surface portion 103. A filter cover 71 is provided on the front surface of the chip filter 70, and a filter cover grip that projects forward and extends laterally is provided on the tip side of the filter cover 71. The lint filter 70 can be attached to and detached from the drain filter device 20 by rotating the filter cover gripping portion.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the drain filter door 60 is pivotally supported by a lower plane portion 103c of the outer box front surface portion 103 of the outer box 1a at a lower portion of one side (hinge 65 side) of the outer box front surface portion 103 via a hinge. When the drain filter door 60 is closed, the drain filter door 60 covers the drain filter device 20 disposed in the outer box 1a, and the drain filter door 60 is configured to be flush with the lower flat surface portion 103c, for example. An erroneous insertion preventing structure is provided on the rear surface portion of the drain filter door 60. That is, the convex erroneous insertion prevention structure may be provided on the rear surface side of the drain filter door 60 in terms of structure, and the convex filter cover gripping portion may be provided. According to this configuration, the mutual convex shapes do not interfere when the rotational position of the filter cover 71 is appropriate, and the drain filter door 60 can be closed. On the other hand, when the filter lid 71 is not properly rotated, the convex shapes interfere with each other, and the drain filter door 60 cannot be completely closed, so that it is possible to notice that the insertion of the lint filter 70 is incomplete.
In this manner, the drain filter door 60 is configured to cover the drain filter device 20 disposed in the outer box 1 a. The drain filter door 60 is configured to notify whether or not the lint filter 70 is loaded in the drain filter device 20, and to notify whether or not the filter cover 71 is closed at a proper position.
As shown in fig. 2 to 4, a lock releasing portion 53 operated by a user is provided on the rear surface side of the door base member 64 and on the opposite side to the hinge 65. The unlocking portion 53 has a function of unlocking the door 50 by sliding the door 50 to the front side in the thickness direction. The engagement claw 57 rotatably supported by the door base member 64 is configured to be interlocked with the movement of the lock releasing portion 53. The engaged portion 66 is an engaging hole formed in an engaged member (not shown) attached to the rear surface side of the annular decorative member 17. When the unlocking portion 53 slides forward in the thickness direction of the door 50, the engagement claw 57 moves to the non-engagement side to release the engagement between the engagement claw 57 and the engaged portion 66, and the door 50 is opened.
(Structure of inclined part 52)
As shown in fig. 1 to 3 and 6, the inclined portion 52 includes: a display operation portion 54 disposed on the front surface side of the inclined portion 52, an inclined frame portion 78 attached to the peripheral edge portion of the display operation portion 54, and an inclined rear surface cover portion 55 attached to the rear surface side of the inclined frame portion 78.

Further, since the display operation portion 54 is provided on the door 50 side, the space above the outer box front surface portion 103 can be effectively used.
[ second embodiment ]
As shown in fig. 2, the lower end portion 61 of the door 50 is located above the drain filter door 60. That is, the door 50 is disposed at a position above the drain filter door 60 so as not to overlap the drain filter door 60 when the door 50 is opened and closed.
Accordingly, even in a state where the door 50 is closed, the drain filter door 60 can be opened and closed, and the lint filter 70 in the drain filter device 20 can be replaced. Therefore, the workability of replacement of the lint filter 70 is improved. In the drum-type washing machine 1 disposed on the waterproof pad provided on the floor, the lower end portion 61 of the door 50 is preferably configured to be located at a certain height (for example, 25cm) or more with respect to the floor. According to this configuration, in a state where the drum-type washing machine 1 is installed on the waterproof pad, the lower end portion 61 of the door 50 is higher than the height of a commercially available laundry basket. Therefore, even when the laundry basket is placed on the floor in the vicinity of the front of the drum-type washing machine 1 in order to take out and put in laundry from the spin basket 3, the lower end portion 61 of the door 50 can be opened and closed without interfering with the laundry basket.
[ third embodiment ]
