A drum (12) for a tub (10) of a clothes washing machine comprises a side wall (121) with a surface that is basically a surface of revolution, and a tubular part (122) attached to the said side wall (121). The tubular part (122) extends along a circumference of the wall (121) and has apertures (124) for collecting, during the rotation of the drum (12), the liquid from the bottom portion (55) of the tub (10), in order to release it over the clothes from the upper portion of the tub (10). <IMAGE>
