Abstract

See full text

Provided is a washing machine including: a washing tub connected with an outer rotor and an outer shaft; a pulsator connected with an inner rotor and an inner shaft; and a planetary gear set mounted between the inner rotor and the pulsator and between the outer rotor and the washing tub, to thus reduce a rotational force of the inner shaft, wherein at least one of the pulsator and the washing tub is rotated during performing a washing stroke by allowing the washing tub to be rotated for a period of time when the pulsator is stopping, to thus minimize a washing machine stop time during performing a washing stroke to thereby enhance a running rate and improve washing efficiency.
