Abstract: A washing-drying machine wherein a tub is mounted in a prism-shaped housing by a pair of tilting shafts in order to carry out the washing-rinsing-spinning steps with a tub substantially vertical and to carry out the warm-air drying step with a tub substantially horizontal. The tilting shafts are arranged on a horizontal axis extending through diagonally opposite corners of the housing so that the capacity of the tub can be maximized, even through the tub tilts, and thereby the capacity of the housing can be efficiently utilized.
