Abstract
A washing machine driving mechanism includes a shaftless rotator (23) for generating rotational energy; a gear reduction mechanism (200) mounted on the rotator (23) and configured to obtain rotational energy from an eccentric position of the rotator (23) and output the energy with or without speed reduction; and a first driving part (11) connected with the gear reduction mechanism (200) and configured to supply the rotational energy with or without the speed reduction to respective execution parts of the washing machine. The rotator is a rotor of a motor, and an output rotating shaft on the rotor is canceled. The washing machine driving mechanism has a technical effect of being compact in structure and small in space occupancy.
Claims7
A washing machine driving mechanism, comprising:
- a rotator for generating rotational energy;
- a gear reduction mechanism mounted on the rotator and configured to obtain rotational energy from an eccentric position of the rotator and output the energy with or without speed reduction;
- a first driving part connected with the gear reduction mechanism and configured to supply the rotational energy with or without the speed reduction to respective execution parts of the washing machine;
- and
- a second driving part configured for outputting the rotational energy without speed reduction, wherein the second driving part is an output shaft sleeve which is sleeved on the output shaft and axially slidable;
- wherein the gear reduction mechanism comprises:
- an input gear shaft mounted at said position eccentric from an axis of the rotator and configured to revolve around said axis while the rotator rotates, so as to obtain the rotational energy therefrom;
- an input gear connected with the input gear shaft and rotatable relative to the rotator;
- and
- an output gear engaged with the input gear;
- wherein an output shaft serving as the first driving part is fixedly connected to the center of the output gear;
- and
- wherein the gear reduction mechanism further comprises an intermediate driving gear which is located outside of the rotator and engaged with the input gear, and wherein the intermediate driving gear is fixedly connected at its axial center with the output shaft sleeve.
