かりにもなるため取扱い性が向上する。First, hold the handle 23 and set the second tank 16 in the washing tank 3. At this time, the hanger 21 and the upper flange 17 of the second tank 16 are set as a guide for positioning. As a result, the coupling 27 is inserted into the cap 13, and since the rotational resistance of the second blade 24 is extremely small, the second blade 24 is guided by the smooth slopes of both spline protrusions as described above, and the second blade 24 rotates. This will result in smooth engagement. Furthermore, even if the centers of both spline convex portions coincide, they can be smoothly engaged by lightly rotating the second blade 24. Next, the water supplied through the water supply outlet 45 provided at the bottom of the operation panel 9 flows into the notch 2.
2 into the second tank 16. Thereafter, by setting the water flow select switch 46 on the operation panel 9 and turning the washing timer 47, the washing action is performed. At this time, the water flow selection switch 46 is set to the optimum one depending on the size and shape of the main blade 6 and the second blade 24, the size and shape of the washing tank 3 and the second tank 16, the type of items to be washed, etc. Water flow can be selected. Also, the second tank 1
6. Since the rotational resistance of the object to be washed differs between the upper and lower parts due to the large number of protrusions 28 provided on the lower inner periphery, it is facilitated to change the upper and lower parts of the object to be washed, thereby reducing uneven washing. Also, when rinsing with water, water is poured from one side of the notch 22 at the top of the second tank 16, and water overflows from the other side. Therefore, on the water injection side, the backflow of fresh water injected can be prevented and water wastage can be prevented.Also, on the overflow side, overflow water is rectified, so not only can the guideline for adjusting the amount of water injection be clear, but also the guideline for wasting water can be prevented. It will also happen. Furthermore, the notch 22 can also improve the rigidity, design, and commercial value of the upper flange 17. Furthermore, the 10th
As shown in the figure, the notch 22 also serves as a handhold when grasping the handle 23, thereby improving handling.

応じて、最適高さに調節することにより。Next, stains that cannot be removed by regular washing (1) For example, stubborn stains such as white athletic socks, dirt on children's clothes, (2) work gloves, etc., are generally removed by hand washing, which takes a lot of effort. This is the reality. On the other hand, by setting the restraining plate 38 of the present invention in the second tank 16, the clothes are separated by the second blade 24 and the numerous protrusions 39 of the restraining plate 38, as shown in FIG. Due to the large number of protrusions 28 of the tank 16, it is continuously subjected to mechanical effects such as friction, bending and stretching, and impact, so that it always remains on the surface of the second blade 24. Therefore, the effectiveness of the cleaning action in conventional washing machines is greatly improved. The connection between the main blade 6 and the second blade 24 is a spline connection that mechanically has a large transmission torque, so there is no idling or weak transmission force as in the prior art. FIG. 12 shows the cleaning effect of the present invention. This also shows the magnitude of the cleaning effect of the present invention. Further, by optimally selecting the water flow select switch 46 described above and adjusting the height of the restraining plate 38 to the optimal height according to the amount of clothing.

When the i38 is not in use, use the operating hook 42 on the upper flange 17 of the washing tank 3, as shown in Fig. 13, or on the upper flange 17 of the second tank 16 (not shown) if water drips. By hanging it upright, you don't have to worry about getting the floor wet, which further improves handling.

する。In addition, when placing the second tank 16 on the floor etc., the coupling 2
Since the lower end of the coupling 27 is located above the lowest surface of the second tank 16, the stability of the second tank 16 is good, and the lower end of the coupling 27 may be damaged or the bearing 25 may be damaged due to excessive external force. Since such defects can be prevented, reliability is improved.

同時排水を選、択切換可能としたものである。In addition, since the drainage in the second tank 16 is configured so that it is not drained into the washing tank 3 through a separate pipe, there may be cases where you want to wash relatively clean items in the washing tank 3 below. Since the washing liquid is not contaminated more than necessary, the washing liquid can be reused and the water saving effect is large. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 14, the main body drain pipe 45 is connected in the middle, and although the details are not shown, depending on the rotation angle of the cock switching knob 46 on the operation panel 9, the water can be drained only from the washing tank 3 or only the second tank 16. , it is possible to select and switch between simultaneous drainage on both sides.

向上する。Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 16, when the second tank 16 is removed and placed on the floor while overflowing water adheres to the outer wall of the second tank 16 during washing or rinsing, the water tray 44 can catch these water droplets. There is no need to worry about getting the floor wet, making it easier to handle. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 17, by making the water tray 44 separate, it is possible to wash in the lower washing tank 3 and the second tank 16.
Even if it is removed with the water scattered during rinsing being carried out at the same time, by placing it on a separate water tray 28, the place where it is placed can be prevented from getting wet with water, so that the ease of handling is further improved.

Because each tank has a completely independent cleaning function, you can not only wash and rinse independently, but also wash and rinse at the top and bottom at the same time. Since the machine can process all the laundry items at the same time, it has a great effect on housewives who are busy with daily housework and childcare. Further, according to the present invention, when washing only small items such as underwear and handkerchiefs, it is possible to wash them in the relatively small capacity second tank 16 instead of washing them in the large capacity washing tank 3. Not only is the detergent effective for saving 1 water and 9, it also removes stubborn stains from the container.
