PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a washing machine which automatically supplies a proper amount of a detergent and a softening agent supplied to each tank, according to the amount of laundry.SOLUTION: A washing machine includes: a housing (4); a water tub (17) including a rotary drum (20) inside, in the housing; and washing treatment liquid automatic input means (30) for supplying a detergent to the water tub. A slide cover (111) or an oscillation cover (115) is provided on a coupling receiving part (64) side for transmitting a driving force of driving means (62) for driving pump means (47). Thus, it can be prevented that a detergent or a softening agent spills on the coupling receiving part (64) and it infiltrates inside the driving means (62) from a gap of an outer periphery of the coupling receiving part (64) or that transmission of the driving force is inhibited by the detergent or softening agent adhering.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】それぞれのタンクに供給された洗剤と柔軟剤とを、洗濯物の量に応じて適量を自動的に供給する洗濯機を提供する。【解決手段】筐体（４）と、筐体内部に回転ドラム（２０）を内部に備えた水槽（１７）と、水槽内に洗剤を供給する洗濯処理液自動投入手段（３０）とを備えた洗濯機において、ポンプ手段（４７）を駆動する駆動手段（６２）の駆動力を伝達するカップリング受け部（６４）側にスライドカバー（１１１）ないし揺動カバー（１１５）を設けることにより、カップリング受け部（６４）に洗剤ないし柔軟剤がかかって、カップリング受け部（６４）の外周の隙間から駆動手段（６２）の内部に侵入したり、あるいは固着して駆動力の伝達を阻害することを防止できる。【選択図】 図１
