METHODS OF AND/OR APPARATUS FOR ACTUATING CLOTHES WASHING MACHINES AND/OR CLOTHES WASHING MACHINES INCLUDING SUCH MEANS

摘要

A drive for a clothes washing machine to give agitating and spin modes uses a reversible motor connected through a speed reducing transmission means to an agitator so that in the agitating mode cyclic reversing of the motor order control of an electronic circuit causes cyclic reversal of rotation of the agitator and the spin mode, rotation of the motor in one direction causes lost motion in a lost motion device beween the agitator and a spin bowl to be taken up and the bowl is then spun to remove water from clothes in the bowl.
