Induction motor for drum washing machine and drum washing machine using same

摘要

An induction motor for a drum washing machine and a drum washing machine using the same are disclosed. An induction motor for a drum washing machine includes: a concentrated winding stator with a plurality of teeth that project from a circumference thereof and a coil wounded around each tooth; a rotor frame connected to a shaft directly fixed to a rotatable drum in the drum washing machine, wherein the concentrated winding stator is located in the rotor frame; and a rotor conductor that generates induced currents in closed circuits along a circumferential direction of the rotor frame when electric currents are applied to the coils so that the rotor frame rotates, wherein the closed circuit is skewed.
