ロックされるようになっている。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a washing machine has an outer lid 1 and an inner lid 2 as lids as shown in FIG. The inner lid 2 is for opening and closing the opening 5 of the water tank cover 4 attached to the upper end of the water tank 3, and the rear end is pivotally supported by the water tank cover 4 so as to be vertically rotatable, and the front end is With the hook 6 engaged with the engaged portion 7 formed at the front edge of the opening 5, the hook 6 is locked in a closed state.

中でも脱水時など振動を発生したときにも、その接触部
から音が出ることのないようにしている。The water tank cover 4 has a projection 8 formed at the periphery of the opening 5, and the inner lid 2 is bent by contacting the projection 8, and the hook 6 is covered in this state. By engaging with the engaging portion 7, the inner lid 2 comes into pressure contact with the convex portion 8, and during operation,
Above all, even when vibration is generated such as during dehydration, no sound is output from the contact portion.

ていた。In the case of the above, in order to prevent more sound from coming out of the portion where the inner lid 2 comes into contact, the height (thickness) of the projection 8 is increased to increase It is preferable that the lid 2 is pressed against the projection 8 more strongly. However, in this case, the inner lid 2 needs to be flexed more, and it becomes difficult to engage the hook 6 with the engaged portion 7. For this reason, it is actually impossible to make the height of the convex portion 8 sufficiently large, and as a result, the degree of pressure of the inner lid 2 against the convex portion 8 becomes insufficient, and the vibration during dehydration is more than a certain degree. There is a problem that it is unavoidable that sound is generated from the contact portion of the inner lid 2 when it becomes larger.

In the closed state, the inner lid 27 is in contact with the upper portion of the elastic body 38 projecting upward from the concave portion 41 by the rib 45, thereby preventing generation of sound. Therefore, even if the inner lid 27 vibrates due to vibration during dehydration or the like, the inner lid 27 is connected to the elastic body 38 by the ribs 45 by suppressing the protrusion size of the elastic body 38 to a size that allows the inner lid 27 to be easily locked. It keeps touching and does not generate sound. Thus, generation of sound from the contact portion of the inner lid 27 can be reliably prevented without making it difficult to lock the inner lid 27.

り確実に防止し続けられる。The elastic body 38 is housed in the concave portion 41 and is attached. The peripheral portion of the concave portion 41 can prevent laundry, a user's finger, etc. from hitting the elastic body 38. The elastic body 38 does not fall off easily, the contact of the elastic body 38 with the inner lid 27 is continued, and the generation of sound is more reliably prevented.

爪部94bを有している。FIGS. 11 and 12 show a third embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, only differences from the first embodiment will be described. In this case, the elastic body is an elastic body 91 having a raised central portion 91a.
At the place where the water tank is to be mounted, a shallow concave portion 92 and mounting holes 93 located on both sides of the concave portion 92 and penetrating below the water tank cover 25 from above are formed. Further, a mounting member 94 is provided for them. The mounting member 94 has a rectangular cap shape, and has a hole 94a at a substantially central portion thereof for projecting an upper portion of a central portion 91a which is a part of the elastic body 91, and the mounting hole of the water tank cover 25 is provided on both sides. It has a claw portion 94b corresponding to 93.

94によって取付けている。In this structure, the elastic member 91 is placed in the concave portion 92, and the mounting member 94 is put on the elastic member 91 on the elastic member 91 so that the upper portion of the central portion 91a of the elastic member 91 projects upward from the hole 94a. The claw portion 94b is engaged with the mounting hole 93, and thus the elastic body 91 is mounted on the water tank cover 25 by the mounting member 94.

ものである。However, even in this case, the inner lid 27 is in a closed state, and comes into contact with the upper part of the central part 91a of the elastic body 91 projecting upward from the hole 94a of the mounting member 94 by the rib 45. This prevents the generation of sound. Therefore, as in the first embodiment, the protrusion of the elastic body 91 is suppressed to a size at which the inner lid 27 can be easily locked, so that even if the inner lid 27 vibrates due to vibration during dehydration or the like, the inner lid 27 is ribbed. Due to 45, the elastic body 91 is kept in contact with the elastic body 91 and does not generate sound. Thus, it is possible to more reliably prevent the sound from being generated from the contact portion of the inner lid 27 without making the locking of the inner lid 27 difficult.

れる。Further, the elastic member 91 is surrounded by the mounting member 94, which can prevent the laundry, the user's finger, etc. from hitting the elastic member 91, so that the elastic member 91 easily falls off. Therefore, the contact of the elastic body 91 with the inner lid 27 is continued, and the generation of sound is more reliably prevented.

It is possible. Further, the elastic bodies 38 and 91 may be attached to the lid 27 to correspond to the water tank cover 25 in the opposite manner to the above, and from this relation, the recess 41, the hole 43, the notch 44, the recess 51 , 61, 92, mounting hole 93
