摘要

Improvements in the drive systems in laundry washing machines, essentially characterized by subjecting the laundry pack to an initial impulse by rotation and centrifugation that forces it to ascend in mass and to interfere with this movement of rotation and ascension by means of a system of fixed pallets arranged in the upper area of the tank, the ascending mass becoming an inert mass without speed falling descendingly on the driving means in successive alternate movement of ascent and descent, for which, as a driving means, it exists in the central part of the bottom of the tank, a turbine plate, rotating on an axis driven from the outside and as an element of interference of the movement of the clothes a system of crosshead with fixed blades, possibly attached to the walls of the tank at arbitrary points will, comprising means for smoothing the friction of the clothing in said elements of drives, watertight means for elp of the shaft and auxiliary draining and emptying arrangements.
