Abstract (en)
A washing machine includes legs (1) provided on a lower portion of a washing machine to contact a support surface, thus supporting the washing machine and absorbing a vibration of the washing machine. The washing machine includes a cabinet (2), and legs (1) which support the cabinet on a support surface. Each of the legs includes first and second vibration absorbing parts (25, 21). The first vibration absorbing part (25) contacts, on a bottom surface thereof, with the support surface, and has elasticity to have a higher contracting strain as a weight applied thereto increases. A bottom surface of the second vibration absorbing part (21) is placed higher than the bottom surface of the first vibration absorbing part (25) by a predetermined height, thus contacting with or being spaced apart from the support surface according to the contracting strain of the first vibration absorbing part (25).
