In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, the washing normally closed hole 6 may be provided by providing a hole in the inner cylinder sidewall 103 and installing the centrifugal valve 9 inside the inner cylinder sidewall 103. Centrifugal valve 9 is including installing in the inboard support of inner tube 1, installs articulated balancing weight mutually on the support, and hole department is equipped with the plug post that can reciprocate, and the plug post is articulated mutually with the balancing weight, adds between plug post and the inner tube lateral wall 103 and holds reset spring to drive the balancing weight and remove to keeping away from 1 axis direction of inner tube 1 under the rotatory centrifugal force of inner tube 1, and then remove and open the hole to 1 axis direction of inner tube through articulated department pulling plug post.
Preferably, a lifting rib 8 protruding towards the center of the inner cylinder is installed on the inner side of the side wall 103 of the inner cylinder, the lifting rib 8 is hollow, and a water permeable hole communicating the inner cylinder 1 with the hollow is formed in the lifting rib 8. The holes of the washing normally closed hole 6 are arranged on the inner barrel side wall 103 corresponding to the lifting rib 8, and the inner hollow part of the lifting rib 8 is communicated with the outer part of the inner barrel 1. The centrifugal valve is provided in the hollow portion inside the lifting rib 8.
Of course, the washing machine in the embodiment of the invention can also be the existing common washing machine, and the water inlet structure can also be directly applied to form the effect of feeding water into the outer cylinder of the water container and directly spraying and contacting the clothes contained in the inner cylinder.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
