摘要:
An automatic washing machine comprises a spin tube coupled to the basket and an agitator shaft coupled to an agitator mounted in the basket. A motor coupled to the agitator shaft applies a torque the agitator shaft and thereby the agitator in first and second torque directions. A clutch couples the spin tube to the agitator shaft for cooperative rotation of the basket and the agitator regardless of the rotational direction of the agitator shaft. Because of the dual directionality of the clutch, reversing the motor simultaneously dynamically brakes the basket and the agitator, thereby eliminating the need for a separate friction brake for the basket.

A body spray assembly includes a container which has an upright position and that is at least partly transparent. A liquid composition in the container is sprayed from the container with a manual spray pump. The composition has an oil phase, an aqueous phase and pigment in the form of particles which are effective to form the oil phase into stable droplets that remain in a droplet layer in the aqueous phase after the composition is allowed to stand for a period of time. The droplets are at least partly visible in the container. The spray pump is free of any plastic parts that extend into the droplet layer when the container is in its upright position to avoid rupturing the stable droplets by contact with these parts. The oil phase contains substantially pure fragrance which is free of solubilizer so that the formation of pearls can occur in the container and does not cloud the aqueous phase.

A side panel for a fabric care appliance is described. The side panel includes an embossed pattern for increasing a first natural frequency (or first harmonic) of the side panel. Preferably, the first natural frequency is substantially higher than any ordinary operating frequency or driving frequency of the appliance. For example, in a washing machine, the first natural frequency of the side panel is preferably at least 1.6 times greater than the maximum rotational frequency of a drum or tumbler of the machine.

Methods are disclosed of producing and purifying at least one amide. In accordance with one of the methods disclosed herein, the at least one amide is produced by providing an organic liquid comprising at least one oxime, providing at least one catalyst, adding the at least one catalyst to the organic liquid to form a rearrangement mass, wherein the rearrangement mass comprises at least one amide, at least one impurity, and the at least one catalyst, and heating the rearrangement mass to a temperature of at least about 115° C. for a period of time in order to sulfonate, break down and/or reduce the concentration of some of the at least one impurity in the rearrangement mass.
