Abstract (en)
A laundry washing machine with hidden electric resistance comprises a substantially cylindrical washing tank (10), provided externally with hooking seats (12) for ties and/or shock absorbers, and a rotating drum (14) arranged inside the tank; the electric resistance (20) is fixed to a plate-shaped metal support (22) that forms part of the lower lateral surface of the tank. Said configuration allows the space between the drum and the tank to be reduced and/or kept virtually constant, thus optimising the washing bath by reducing water consumption and electric absorption for high loads and further allowing to assure contiguity between the washing bath and laundry including also with different types of loads in terms of kilograms.
