Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0061854A1] A laundry machine, such as a washing machine, spin drier or tumble drier, including a drum (1) rotatably mounted about an axis, and including a generally open end (8) and a perforated container (3) arranged to be positioned within the drum (1) through the opening (8). A drum engaging surface (40. 40') is provided on the perforated container (3) for frictionally engaging the drum (1) such that the perforated container (3) is rotated with the drum (1). In a preferred example, the friction engaging surface is in the form of an elastic band (40) that is stretched around the outer surface of the perforated container (3), and which is located in a groove on the outer surface of the perforated container.
