    Abstract: A drive system of a washing machine includes a housing, a motor, a rotor shaft coupled to the motor and the housing, an output shaft having a part within the rotor shaft and coupled to the housing, a planetary gear set coupled to the rotor shaft and the output shaft, and an actuator configured to move the planetary gear set in a vertical direction. When the planetary gear set is moved to one side, a part of the planetary gear set is coupled to the rotor shaft to transmit a rotational force of the rotor shaft to the output shaft at a ratio of 1:1. When the planetary gear set is moved to other side, another part of the planetary gear set is coupled to the housing to reduce the rotational force of the rotor shaft at a gear ratio of n:1 and transmit it to the output shaft.

    Abstract: A valve actuator includes a motor and a gear assembly that receives driving force of the motor and controls a valve. In the gear assembly, a power transmission gear for transmitting rotational force of an input gear to an output gear includes a selective power transmission unit. When the output gear is in physical contact with a stopper, the power transmission gear transmits the rotational force of the input gear to the output gear is blocked. Accordingly, even after the valve is actuated to close a path, the rotational force of the input gear is not transmitted to the output gear even though the motor is continuously driven.
