WASHING MACHINE

摘要

The present invention relates to a washing machine, and more particularly, to a washing machine including: a casing constituting the appearance thereof; a support bar having one end connected to the casing; and a suspension for connecting the other end of the support bar to the outer tub so as to suspend the outer tub within the casing, and for absorbing vibrations from the outer tub. The suspension includes: an air cab through which the second end of the support bar passes, wherein the air cab is installed on the outer circumference of the outer tub and is moved along the support bar according to vibrations from the outer tub; a first friction member fitted on the support bar and disposed within the air cab to contact the inner surface of the air cab; and a second friction member contacting the support bar and generating greater frictional force with the support bar than that which is generated between the first friction member and the inner surface of the air cab to effectively decrease vibrations.
