Abstract (en)

Improved closing system in plastic tank for washing machine, being of the kind of the plastic tanks that are made up of two halves that are obtained from a mould, staying open the union base in both halves, while the other base of one of the halves coincides with the frontal part of the tank that is relative to the washing machine door and the other one defines the closed back part with the central axial hole for the pass of the drum spindle, so that the two halves (1) and (2) define the washing machine tank by means of their union and they have a plurality of radial lungs that are backed among them. Thus, the lungs of one of the halves have the respective projections while the backed lungs have the respective passing holes, so that the projections, that are like a right angle to the radial lungs (3) of one of the tank halves (1), are defined by the respective studs (7) which are endowed of an axial central hole. <IMAGE>
