Abstract
A fabric treating machine includes a spray nozzle for spraying water supplied from a water supply passage into an inner tub and a spray nozzle combining unit for combining the spray nozzle with a case. Fabric loaded in the inner tub can be effectively soaked through the spray nozzle. Furthermore, a spray direction of the spray nozzle can be accurately adjusted when the spray nozzle is fitted in the case, and thus the spray nozzle can be easily fitted in the case and water sprayed through the spray nozzle can be prevented from overflowing.
Claims22
A fabric treating machine comprising:
- a case having a face in which a tube insertion hole and a radial direction protrusion hole formed by spreading a portion of the tube insertion hole are formed;
- an inner tub rotatably disposed inside the case;
- a spray nozzle inserted into the tube insertion hole, the spray nozzle being configured to spray washing water into the inner tub;
- and
- a radial direction protrusion formed on the spray nozzle, the radial direction protrusion being inserted into the radial direction protrusion hole from a front to rear direction,
- wherein a movement of the radial direction protrusion in the front direction is restricted by a peripheral portion of the tube insertion hole of the face when the spray nozzle is rotated while being inserted into the tube insertion hole, thereby preventing the spray nozzle from being separated from the tube insertion hole.

- a spray nozzle inserted into the tube insertion hole, the spray nozzle being configured to spray washing water into the inner tub;
- and
- a radial direction protrusion formed on the spray nozzle, the radial direction protrusion being inserted into the radial direction protrusion hole at an initial assembly location from a front to rear direction,
- wherein a movement of the radial direction protrusion in the front direction is restricted by a peripheral portion of the tube insertion hole of the face at a final assembly location where the spray nozzle is rotated from the initial assembly location by a certain angle, thereby preventing the spray nozzle from being separated from the tube insertion hole.
