Disclosed are a drain device having a drain filter, which causes foreign substances contained in washing water to be effectively filtered out by a filter chamber to prevent the foreign substances from flowing into a pump chamber, and allows the washing water to smoothly flow in the filter chamber to use the drain filter for a long time, and a washing machine having the same. The washing machine includes a housing provided with a washing chamber; and a drain device including a filter chamber provided with a filter member installed therein filtering out foreign substances from washing water in the washing chamber, and a pump chamber connected to the filter chamber to forcibly discharge the washing water. The filter member has a sectional area gradually increased toward the pump chamber and is provided with an end terminal separated from an inlet of the pump chamber by a designated distance.

Drain device and washing machine having the same

A drain pump including a case including a mounting bracket; a first connection member mounted to the mounting bracket to be spaced from the cabinet; a second connection member inserted in the first connection member; and a fastening member passed through the cabinet and inserted in the second connection member so that the case is mounted to the cabinet. Since the first connection member is spaced from the cabinet, the second connection member can be prevented from being damaged by vibration of the drain pump.

Drain pump and washing machine having the same

A washing machine having a cabinet and a drain pump, which prevents the vibration of the drain pump from being transferred to the cabinet, and improves the efficiency in assembling the drain pump with the cabinet. In the washing machine having a cabinet forming an external portion of the washing machine and having a through hole defined through a portion of the cabinet and a drain pump installed on the cabinet, the drain pump includes a connection unit having one end passing through the through hole and protruding to an outside of the cabinet, an anti-vibration member affixed in the through hole to absorb the vibration of the drain pump, and a fixing member connected with the connection unit and pressing the anti-vibration member.
