Abstract
Provided is a drum-type washing machine having a rotatable viewing window comprising: a front panel of the housing of the washing machine, an access opening provided on the front panel, and a viewing window disposed on the access opening, wherein a hinge component is provided between the viewing window and the front panel of the housing to allow the rotation of the viewing window along a horizontal orientation and along a vertical orientation to the open position. When the viewing window opened to a small degree along the horizontal direction, it then could rotate upwards to open, and accordingly nearly half the space occupied by opening the viewing window of traditional front loading washing machine could be saved. Furthermore, the automatic opening could be achieved.
