The agitator shaft of the transmission is connected to the
agitator. When the pulley on the transmission is turned
clockwise the gears inside the transmission cause the
shaft to oscillate back and forth. Simultaneously, the
one-way bearing located at the base of the transmission
locks to prevent turning of the transmission and spin
basket.
The spin basket is fastened to the spin shaft of the
transmission. When the pulley on the transmission is
turned counterclockwise, a small spring inside the
transmission tightens around the input shaft causing
the transmission and spin basket to turn.
Simultaneously, the one-way bearing located at the
base of the transmission slips to allow turning of the
transmission and the spin basket.
Spin basket or inner tub
The spin basket is mounted to the top of the
transmission.
The spin basket holds the clothes. During the wash
cycle the movement of the agitator draws water up
through the lint screen filter in the bottom of the spin
basket and forces it out the holes in the side and the
bottom. As the water circulates lint is trapped on the
under side of the filter screen. During the drain cycle
the water is drawn down through the filter screen flushing
the lint out the drain. Because of the one way bearing at
the bottom of the transmission and the movement of the
agitator, the spin basket rotates or indexes during the
agitation cycle. Molded into the top of the spin basket
is a liquid filled ring that works as a counter balance
during the spin cycle to reduce vibration.
