Abstract

The water recycling device for a washing machine contains a hollow body member having a water inlet and a water outlet, and a disc member axially mounted on a vertical axle inside the body member. The disc member has a number of actuating blocks, each having a vertical side facing the water inlet at each turn of the disc member. When used water is poured inside the body member through the water inlet, the actuating blocks are pushed and the disc member spins. Used water and filthy clothes inside the body member are stirred to achieve a cleaning effect. As such, used water from a washing machine is recycled to clean especially filthy clothes without using additional water and electricity.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . A water recycling device for a washing machine, comprising:
 a body member having an internal space with a top opening, a vertical axle inside said internal space, and a water inlet and a water outlet, both connecting said internal space to outside of said body member, said water inlet connected to a water outlet of said washing machine; and   a disc member axially mounted on said axle wherein a plurality of actuating blocks are configured in sequence on a top surface around a center of said disc member, and each actuating block has a vertical side facing said water inlet for each turn of said disc member.   
     
     
         2 . The water recycling device according to  claim 1 , wherein said disc member is supported by a flange inside said internal space. 
     
     
         3 . The water recycling device according to  claim 1 , wherein each actuating block further has a slant side and a plurality of vertical through channels running through said actuating block and said disc member. 
     
     
         4 . The water recycling device according to  claim 1 , wherein a fan-shaped piece is extended from said axle and is beneath said disc member. 
     
     
         5 . The water recycling device according to  claim 1 , wherein said top opening of said internal space is sealed by a cover pin-joined to said body member. 
     
     
         6 . The water recycling device according to  claim 1 , wherein a motor driving said disc member to spin is configured inside said body member. 
     
     
         7 . The water recycling device according to  claim 1 , wherein a barrel surrounds said internal space of said body member; and a plurality of through holes are configured on said barrel's side wall.
