<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a washing machine that sprays water uniformly over the inner face of an outer tub through dehydrating holes and easily secures dewatering performance. <P>SOLUTION: A washing machine comprises: a housing 2; an outer tub 9 that is supported as vibration-proof in the housing 2 and retains water therein; an inner tub 8 that is rotatably supported in the outer tub 9 and houses laundry therein; a driving device 10 that rotationally drives the inner tub 8; and water supply means for supplying water into the outer tub 9. With through holes 8a1 provided at a partial area in the circumferential direction of the inner tub 8 and auxiliary through holes 8a2 provided at another partial area in the circumferential direction of the inner tub 8, as the inner tub 8 rotates for dewatering, water is sprayed through the through holes 8a1 and the auxiliary through holes 8a2 and hit the inner wall face of the outer tub 9. The position in an axial direction of water sprayed from the through holes 8a1 and the position in an axial direction of water sprayed from the auxiliary through hole 8a2 are set to be different from each other. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
