Abstract

A washing machine driving mechanism includes a shaftless rotator (23) for generating rotational energy; a gear reduction mechanism (200) mounted on the rotator (23) and configured to obtain rotational energy from an eccentric position of the rotator (23) and output the energy with or without speed reduction; and a first driving part (11) connected with the gear reduction mechanism (200) and configured to supply the rotational energy with or without the speed reduction to respective execution parts of the washing machine. The rotator is a rotor of a motor, and an output rotating shaft on the rotor is canceled. The washing machine driving mechanism has a technical effect of being compact in structure and small in space occupancy.
