Abstract: A laundry appliance includes a tub contained within an outer cabinet. A motor assembly is attached to the tub having a first rotor and a second rotor that operate about a common rotational axis. A drum is disposed within the tub and coupled with the first rotor to rotationally operable about the common rotational axis. A blower is coupled to the second rotor and disposed within the tub to rotationally operate about the common rotational axis to deliver process air through an airflow path that includes a processing space defined within the drum. The blower is positioned within a blower housing that is positioned between the tub and the drum.

Abstract: A front-load laundry appliance includes a drum that is rotationally operable within a tub about a generally horizontal rotational axis. A plurality of lifters are coupled to an interior surface of the drum. A fluid delivery path is at least partially defined within the drum and the plurality of lifters. A fluid delivery system delivers fluid into the fluid delivery path in a direction parallel to the generally horizontal rotational axis.

Abstract: A tub for a laundry appliance, includes a rear wall having a bearing hub for receiving a drive shaft. A plurality of inner radial walls extend from the bearing hub to a convergence wall. A circumferential wall extends concentrically about the bearing hub to engage one of the inner radial walls and the convergence wall. A plurality of outer diverging walls extends from the convergence wall to an outer edge of the rear wall.

Abstract: A combination washing and drying appliance includes a tub that is disposed within a cabinet. A drum is rotationally operable within the tub about a rotational axis. An airflow path is defined within an interstitial space between the drum and the tub. A blower fan operates to direct process air through the airflow path. The blower fan is disposed within a blower enclosure that is defined by a back wall of the drum and a blower housing that is attached to the tub. Engagement of the back wall of the drum and the blower housing of the tub defines a slidable engagement that is selectively sealed during operation of the blower fan to prevent the process air from leaving the airflow path and to further prevent aspiration of ambient air to the airflow path.
