Abstract
Provided is a driving device for a full automatic washing machine in which a clutch unit can stop rotation of a dehydration axis without having a particular brake unit, since the clutch unit is closely adhered to a first dehydration axis and a bushing when the rotation of the dehydration axis is controlled according to a wash or dehydration stroke in a full automatic washing machine. In addition, since a clutch coupler of the clutch unit moves at a wash or dehydration stroke in a driving device of a washing machine to thus be attached to and detached from a clutch gear which controls rotation of the first dehydration axis, and to thereby control a rotational force which is transferred to an inner tub, the washing machine is embodied to have a simple clutch coupling structure. Further, a double-rotor and a single-stator of a brushless direct-current (BLDC) motor which is applied to a driving device of a washing machine are insert-molded into a waterproof structure, to thus maximize a contact area of a bulk molding compound (BMC) molding material to thereby maximize durability.
