    Abstract: A washing machine includes a first housing, a second housing disposed on the first housing, a first tub included in the first housing, a second tub included in the second housing, a first drain path through which wash water from the first tub flows, a second drain path through which wash water from the second tub flows, a connector disposed at a portion where the first drain path and the second drain path are joined, and a third drain path through which the wash water introduced into the connector through the first drain path and the second drain path flows out from the connector. The connector is located at a position higher than a maximum water storage height of the first tub.

    Abstract: A washing machine comprises a hinge device including a cam member, a lever, and an elastic member, and the cam member comprises an outer circumference surface including a first section, a second section and a third section disposed between the first section and the second section having a curvature different from each other. The cam member is profiled to be disposed at a first position in which the door is automatically opened, a second position in which the door is automatically closed, and at a third position in which an external resultant force becomes 0 (zero), when the lever is in contact with each section. Therefore, it is possible to control a closing speed of the door and simplify the power transmission method by using the cam, reduce the material cost by reducing the number of parts, and secure the reliability of driving of the washing machine.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a washing machine, which includes a clutch unit provided to be able to selectively transmit power generated from a drive unit to a drum and a pulsator. The clutch unit includes an outer shaft that is connected to the drum at an upper side thereof and rotates the drum, an inner shaft that is located in the outer shaft, is connected to the pulsator at an upper side thereof, and rotates the pulsator, and a one-way bearing that is installed between the inner shaft and the outer shaft. The one-way bearing selectively transmits a rotating force from the outer shaft to the inner shaft according to a rotating direction of the outer shaft. With this configuration, it is possible to simplify a structure of the clutch unit and to use space efficiently.
