Problems solved by technology

[0002] The panel assembly for the washing machine in the prior art includes a base and a panel. The panel is a flat plate. The front side of the base is provided with a mounting groove, and the panel is embedded in the mounting groove. After the panel is assembled, an annular gap is formed between the panel and the mounting groove. As a result, the overall appearance of the panel assembly will be reduced; in addition, this design will also reduce the usable area of ​​​​the panel, resulting in the inability to arrange more button holes on the panel, or to arrange more buttons. The layout of the hole will be compact, which will easily cause the user to trigger the function button by mistake.

Embodiment 1

[0031] refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the panel assembly in this embodiment is installed on the upper front side of the washing machine box, which includes a base 1 and a panel 2, and the panel 2 is a control panel or an operation panel or a decorative panel. Taking the control panel as an example, the panel 2 includes An integrally formed front panel 21 and a side panel 22 formed by extending backward from one lateral end of the front panel 21. The front panel 21 is provided with a display area. It can be seen from this that the panel 2 in this embodiment is L when viewed from a top view. type panel, after the panel 2 is assembled with the base 1, the corner part of the panel can cover the corner of the base, so as to reduce the length of the assembly gap directly seen by the user, thereby improving the appearance of the panel assembly, and at the same time, It can enhance the structural strength of the corners and sides of the panel group assembly; in addition, this desi...

Embodiment 2

[0043] Compared with Embodiment 1, the difference of this embodiment is that the side of the base in this embodiment is provided with a side clamping hole, and the side plate is provided with a side buckle, and the side buckle is laterally clamped on the side clamping joint. hole, so that the side plate is close to the side of the base, the front side of the base is provided with a front clamping hole, the front plate is provided with a front buckle, and the front buckle is horizontally clamped on the front clamping hole, so that The front panel is closely attached to the front side of the base. In this way, the panel can be installed horizontally on the base from right to left, and both the front panel and the side panel can be snapped and fixed at the same time. This design can also lower the panel difficulty of assembly.

[0044] Preferably, a front mounting groove for accommodating the front plate may be provided on the front side of the base, a side mounting groove for ac...

Embodiment 3

[0046] This embodiment also provides a washing machine, which includes a cabinet and the panel assembly described in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2. The panel assembly can be installed on the top front side of the cabinet or on the upper front side of the cabinet.

Abstract

The invention discloses a panel component for a washing machine and belongs to the technical field of washing machines. The panel component for the washing machine comprises a base and a panel, wherein the panel comprises a front plate and a side plate which is formed after one transverse end of the front plate extends backwards, and the panel is installed on the base in one direction, so that thefront plate and the side plate are both tightly attached to the base. By the adoption of the panel component in the invention, the appearance aesthetic degree of the panel component can be raised, the overall area of the front side of the panel also can be increased, therefore, the arrangement of more key holes is benefited, or the layout of the key holes is more reasonable; and meanwhile, through assembling in one direction, limiting of the front plate and the side plate on two dimensions can be guaranteed, and therefore assembling difficulty is lowered. Besides, the invention further provides the washing machine. The washing machine comprises a box body and the panel component, wherein the panel component is installed on the box body.
