Abstract (en)

A washing machine having a spraying nozzle assembly which not only sprays the circulated washing liquid onto the clothing evenly, but also completely removes impurities formed between an outer tub and a spin tub is disclosed. The spraying nozzle assembly has an upper frame and a lower frame secured to the upper frame. The lower frame has a plurality of spraying nozzles at its underside. Each spraying nozzle is circumferentially spaced apart from each other. Each spraying nozzle extends toward the upper inner wall of the spin tub so that impurities such as foam formed between the spin tub and the outer tub can be completely removed without wasting any washing liquid. <IMAGE>
