The balancer is generally used for reducing the vibration ofan automatic washing machine with a flexible-supported tub. In the present study, based on the general structure of a bal-ancer, four experimental parameters such as the quantity ofliq-uid filled, the rib shape, the angle between rib and centripetal-line and the cross section of the balancer , are considered to study how these parameters mentioned above affect the effec-tiveness of the liquid balancer and how to promote the effectiv-eness of the balancer by a series of experiments. The experimental results show that we can increase the effectivemass of balance to reduce the amplitude of the tub in vibrating. Two new types of the balancer, the solid balancer and the single ring balancer with multi-concentric troughs, are also proposed inthis paper.
