Washing machine has overhung mounted drum with radial ball bearing inner rings loosely seated with respect to shaft journals, axially braced in defined manner with respect to outer rings

摘要

The washing machine has an overhung mounted drum (3) rotatable about a horizontal or inclined axis, whereby a bearing housing (7) contains two radial ball bearings (9,10) with their outer rings (9b,10b) at an axial distance from each other and with inner rings (9a,10a) accommodating a bearing journal connected (1) to the drum. The inner rings of both radial ball bearings are loosely seated with respect to the shaft journals and are axially braced in a defined manner with respect to the outer rings.
