Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a coupling device (19) for coupling a frictional damper with a middle longitudinal axis (21), which is coupled to an oscillatory washing unit with a drum axis, to a machine frame of a washing machine with a spin gear. The coupling device has a first bending axis, which runs vertically to the central longitudinal axis (21) and parallel to the drum axis, a second bending axis (33) which runs vertically to the central longitudinal axis (21) and to the first bending axis and intersects both at one point, a first connecting element for connecting the coupling device (19) to the frictional damper, a second connecting element for connecting the coupling device (19) to the machine frame and a spring element (24) that is located between the first connecting element and the second connecting element and is connected to both, the flexural strength of the coupling device (19) about the second bending axis (33) being greater than the flexural strength about the first bending axis.
