Compared to the case where the top cover 16 is not housed, the top cover 16 is lowered. In this state, the liquid inlet 22
When a liquid detergent or a bleaching agent is added to the liquid, the liquid flows out from the lower end portion 22a of the liquid input port 22 and is received by the lower liquid receiving concave portion 27.
It flows out from the outflow hole 29 of the above and is supplied into the water tank 3 through the gap 8 between the water tank 3 and the inner tank 4.

止できる。At this time, if the distance between the top cover 16 and the water tank cover 9 is wide, the liquid flowing out from the liquid inlet 22 to the liquid receiving recess 27 is liquid receiving recess 27.
It may bounce inside. However, according to the present embodiment, even if the liquid splashes in the liquid receiving recess 27, the outer peripheral rib 34 and the protrusion 35 are provided on the outer peripheral portion of the liquid receiving recess 27, and the inner peripheral portion is provided. Since there is the inner peripheral rib 37, it is possible to prevent the liquid from falling over the protruding portion 35 to the outside of the water tank 3 or over the inner peripheral rib 37 into the inner tank 4.

本実施例によれば、このような不具合を防止できる。By the way, when the liquid detergent or the bleaching agent falls to the outside of the water tank 3, there is a possibility that the liquid detergent or the bleaching agent will eventually fall to the floor and become soiled or stain. Also, when the liquid detergent directly drops into the inner tub 4, there is no particular problem, but when the bleaching agent directly drops into the inner tub 4, the unbleached solution of the bleaching agent remains in the laundry in the inner tub 4. It may adhere directly, and in such a case, it may cause discoloration or uneven color. In this regard,
According to this embodiment, such a problem can be prevented.

寄与している。Further, the bottom of the liquid receiving recess 27 is provided with an outflow hole 29 for outflowing the liquid detergent or bleaching agent between the water tank 3 and the inner tank 4, which is an outflow hole 29.
Is too large, for example, the liquid may blow out due to the air flow generated by the rotation of the inner tank 4 during the dehydration operation. Therefore, the protrusions 35 of the outer peripheral rib 34 are provided on both sides of the liquid receiving recess 27.
And the recesses 31 and 32 are provided through a partition wall 39 having a height lower than that of the inner peripheral rib 37. For example, the liquid receiving recess 2
When a large amount of liquid is thrown into 7 at a time, the liquid is temporarily stored in the recesses 31 and 32 to prevent the liquid from overflowing to the outside of the aquarium cover 9. . The liquid stored in the recesses 31 and 32 is supplied from the hole 33 at the bottom into the water tank 3 through the gap 8 between the water tank 3 and the inner tank 4. Also,
The recesses 31 and 32 also contribute to improving the strength of the aquarium cover 9.

い。On the other hand, in this type of washing machine, providing the control device 25 having the operation panel 24 at the front part of the top cover 16 is effective in terms of operability and manufacturing and assembling, and is widely performed. ing. Further, in consideration of loadability and unloadability of laundry, it is also effective to keep the front part of the upper part of the washing machine low. From these things, when the lower end portion 25a of the control device 25 is projected downward from the lower end portion 15a of the laundry inlet / outlet port 15, even if the water tank 3 vibrates vertically during the dehydration operation, the water tank 3 and the top cover It is necessary to provide a constant gap 26 so as not to collide with 16. The protrusions 35 and the inner peripheral ribs 37 of the outer peripheral rib 34 around the liquid receiving recess 27 in the water tank cover 9 extend upward by the same amount as the lower protrusion amount of the lower end portion 25a of the control device 25 ( There is no problem because a minimum gap (clearance 42) for avoiding a collision is secured (see the chain double-dashed line in FIG. 3).

なことを極力防止できる。Further, the collision of the water tank 3 with the top cover 16 is likely to occur when the dehydration operation is started or when the brake is suddenly stopped. At this time, the water tank 3 vibrates strongly not only in the vertical direction but also in the circumferential direction. The liquid receiving recess 27
It is conceivable that the protruding portion 35 and the inner peripheral rib 37 of the peripheral rib 34 on the periphery collide with the lower end 25a of the control device 25. However, even if a collision occurs between them, the protruding portions 35 of the outer peripheral rib 34 and the upper end portions of the inner peripheral rib 37 are formed with the inclined portions 35a and 37a. It is possible to prevent the inner peripheral rib 37 from being damaged.
