Abstract
A cylinder washing machine includes a front-loading cylinder, the shell of which is provided with holes and is surrounded by a container. The cylinder washing machine includes a cycle for spin-drying the laundry contained in the cylinder. To prevent water that has already been spun out of the laundry from being transported back to the interior space of the cylinder during spin-drying, precautions are taken to prevent substantially any air from flowing from the container through the interior space of the cylinder and back to the container during spin-drying.
