Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0131985A1] The device serves to close the loading and unloading aperture of the tub of a front-loading washing machine. It comprises a door (10) which is rotatably supported on an arm (11) hinged to the tub (5), and is provided peripherally with inclined radial and axial surfaces arranged to cooperate with inclined counter-surfaces associated with the tub in order to restrain the door radially and axially. A lever (35) operated by the user controls the opening and closure of the door, and is loaded by a rocking spring (42).
