The present invention relates to a laundry machine having a drying function for drying an object to be dried, especially clothes. In the laundry machine according to one embodiment of the present invention, lint and the like that may be contained in the hot air are removed by the filter, whereby the lint and the like can be prevented from being piled on the duct. Also, the filter is placed in a way that it is exposed into the tub, whereby the filter can be cleaned automatically while it is being driven.

Laundry maching having a drying function

A supporting structure of a tub for a laundry machine is provided. The laundry machine includes a cabinet to form an outer appearance having a base, a tub arranged in the cabinet, a drum rotatably placed in the tub, a suspension that flexibly supports the drum, and a support, separate from the suspension, provided at the base to support vertically a weight of the tub. Due to the supporting structure of the laundry machine, a capacity of the tub of the laundry machine is increased. A support stability of the capacity-increased tub is enhanced by vertically supporting the weight of the tub.

Supporting structure of tub for a laundry machine

The present invention relates to a laundry machine for treating laundry. One embodied laundry machine may have an opening in the rear of the tub. A flexible material is connected between the drive assembly and the rear opening of the tub for sealing therebetween. The flexible material allows the drive assembly to move or vibrate relatively to the tub. The flexible material may be referred to as a flexible sealer.

Laundry machine having a flexible sealer

A laundry machine is disclosed. The bearing housing and the suspensions may be distant from each other with respect to a radial direction as well as an axial direction of the shaft. As a result, the suspension unit may include a radial bracket extended radially or axial bracket extended axially.

Laundry machine

The patent application refers to a washing machine including a cabinet rear () which forms a rear side of the washing machine, a tub () for holding washing water, a drum () rotatably mounted to the tub (), a drum (), a bearing housing () for rotatably supporting the rotation shaft (), a motor for rotating the rotation shaft (), and a suspension assembly () for supportably buffering vibration of the drum (), wherein the washing machine further includes a coupling portion () which is a projection from an outside surface of a rear side of the tub () for fastening to the cabinet rear ().

Washing machine

A laundry machine is disclosed. The laundry machine includes a tub configured to receive wash water, a drum rotatably installed in the tub, a shaft connected with the drum, a bearing housing () configured to support the shaft, a tub back () coupled to inner and outer circumferences of a front surface of the bearing housing (), a rear gasket connected between the tub back () and the tub and a suspension unit configured to support vibration of the drum suspendingly.

A laundry machine is provided that includes a tub that holds washing water, a drum rotatably mounted in the tub, a drive having a rotational shaft connected to the drum, a bearing housing that rotatably supports the rotational shaft, a motor that rotates the rotational shaft, and a suspension assembly that supportably buffers vibration of the drum. An up/down direction height of a front of the tub is greater than a left/right direction width of the tub.

A laundry machine for treating laundry is disclosed. The laundry machine includes a front gasket having a structure capable of effectively preventing leakage of wash water or effectively preventing laundry or foreign matter from being introduced between a tub and a drum.

Laundry machine having a drying function

A laundry machine is disclosed. A laundry machine includes a tub () to hold water therein, a drum () provided in the tub (), a shaft () connected to the drum (), passing the tub (), a bearing housing () secured to the tub (), the bearing housing () supporting the shaft () and a motor (M) rotating the shaft (), and a water seal () provided between the tub () and the bearing housing () to maintain gas tight of the bearing housing () and of the shaft (). As a result the laundry machine may improve capacity of the tub () and maintain gas tight of the tub () efficiently.

The present invention relates to a laundry machine for treating laundry. One embodiment of the laundry machine may include a water supply valve, a drum () in which laundry is placed, a tub () in which the drum () is rotatably placed, the tub () having an extended portion () which extends forward and have an opening at a front portion thereof for laundry entrance, and a tub water supply portion (), and a water supply line to guide water from the water supply valve to the tub water supply portion ().

The present invention relates to a washing machine () including a cabinet () having a base (), a tub () fixedly secured to an inside of the cabinet (), a drum () rotatable provided in the tub (), a rotation shaft () passed through the tub () from a rear of the drum (), a bearing housing () connected to the rotation shaft (), a suspension assembly () for buffering and supporting a structure connected to the bearing housing (), a driving motor () provided to the suspension assembly () and a power transmission member () for transmission of the rotation force from the driving motor () to the rotation shaft (), thereby permitting to increase a capacity of the washing machine () by changing the structure or the washing machine () and increase the rotation efficiency of the drum () by providing a driving structure which rotates the drum () and has an increased capacity by thus effects.
