Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2864114A1] The door has a flap (21) mounted at the level of a side (21a) in rotation around an axle (23) integrated to an edge (24) of an opening. A flap (22) is mounted at the level of a side (22a) in rotation on an opposite side (21b) of the flap (21). The two flaps are positioned at same side of the opening when the door is in open position such that inclination of the drum at side of the opening does not have flaps. The flap (22) has another opposite side that includes guiding pins to cooperate with guiding rails of a shell (11) of a drum. An independent claim is also included for a cloth washing or drying machine including a drum door.
