An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. In FIG. 1, a motor pulley 4 is fixed to a washing motor 3 supported by a vibration-proof rubber 2 on a base 1, and a pulley 6 is driven by a V-belt 5 to be installed in an outer frame 7. The speed is reduced in the gear box portion 9 fixed to the bottom of the washing tub 8 to rotate the stirring blade 10 for washing. Also,
The operation panel 11 is provided with a controller 12 such as the washing motor 3 and a water level switch 13. Also, near the center,
An electromagnetic water supply valve 14 for supplying the water introduced by the water supply hose 15 into the washing tub 8 or the dehydration tub 16 is provided on the operation panel 11.
It is arranged inside.

Now, when the user performs washing, the water supply hose 15 is connected to the electromagnetic water supply valve 14. Next, a desired washing water level is selected by the water level switching 13, and clothes are put into the washing tub 8. After that, by operating the control unit 12 in the operation panel 11, a valve opening command is transmitted from the control unit 12 such as a microcomputer to the electromagnetic water supply valve 14, and water is automatically supplied into the washing tub 8. When water is supplied to the designated water level position by the water level switch 13, although not shown, a pressure switch in the operation panel 11 gives a signal to stop the water supply, and then automatically starts washing. In addition, a drain valve driving motor (hereinafter referred to as a drain motor 17) is provided in the operation panel 11, and is connected to an internal pipe portion by a flexible connecting member 18.

Now, in FIG. 2, when the washing is completed and the stage of the drainage stroke is reached, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the drainage signal is output from the control unit 12, and the triac of 27 is turned on, When the neutral leaf 25 and the leaf a24 are connected (in the case of (I)), the drain motor 17 starts rotating, the cam 20 rotates, and at the same time, the connecting member 18 is pulled. As a result, the valve operating pipe 28 is pulled up, the associated valve body 32 and valve lip 33 are pulled up, and water flows out from the drain hose 35. Drainage motor 17
Is further rotated, and when the dowel 23 in the state detection switch 22 becomes the state (II) due to the step of the cam 20, the drain motor 17 is stopped, and the valve remains fully open. In this way, by using a synchronous motor with a small opening and closing of the valve, unlike the conventional magnet system, the valve can be opened and closed quietly without an impact noise. When the valve is closed, the connecting member 18 is loosened by the same cam rotation, and the spring 29 urges the valve lip 33 to stop the water. As shown in FIG. 3, the moving distance of the connecting member 18 due to opening and closing of the valve is S.

Now, here, the drainage motor 17 is the panel box 30
It was usually installed on the inner bottom plate. However, in this case, if the customer forgets to drop the drain hose or if the drain hose is clogged with thread waste or the like, the drain motor 17 may be submerged due to an overflow accident. Further, if dew condensation water is generated, there is no escape route and the water will stay there, possibly causing insulation deterioration.
