[0032] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0033] Example:

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 7 The assembly structure of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet 2 includes an inner container 1 and a cabinet 2, wherein the inner container 1 has a first through hole on its side wall, a sleeve 3 extending through the first through hole, one end of the sleeve 3 engaging with the side wall of the inner container 1, and the other end positioned between the inner container 1 and the cabinet 2; an adjusting screw 4, one end of the adjusting screw 4 being positioned within and engaging the sleeve 3, the other end extending out of the sleeve 3 and abutting against the cabinet 2, the adjusting screw 4 having open ends and a screw hole 401 formed therein; and a screw 5 extending through the screw hole 401, the screw head of the screw 5 abutting against the outer side of the end of the adjusting screw 4 away from the cabinet 2, the end of the screw 5 away from the screw head being positioned within the cabinet 2.

[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the assembly structure of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet 2 includes an inner tank 1, a cabinet 2, a sleeve 3, an adjusting screw 4 and a screw 5; wherein, the side wall of the inner tank 1 is provided with a first through hole (not shown), the sleeve 3 passes through the first through hole and the right end of the sleeve 3 is clamped with the side wall of the inner tank 1, the left end of the sleeve 3 is located between the inner tank 1 and the cabinet 2, the right end of the adjusting screw 4 is arranged in the sleeve 3 and clamped with the inside of the sleeve 3, the left end of the adjusting screw 4 extends out of the sleeve 3 and abuts against the cabinet 2, wherein the end surface of the left end of the adjusting screw 4 is a plane, the adjusting screw 4 has openings at both ends and a screw hole 401 is provided inside, the screw 5 passes through the screw hole 401, and the screw head of the screw 5 abuts against the outer side of the right end of the adjusting screw 4, and the end of the screw 5 away from the screw head is arranged in the cabinet 2, and the inner tank 1 is assembled with the cabinet 2 through the combination of the sleeve 3, the adjusting screw 4 and the screw 5. In the present invention, by making the left end of the adjusting screw 4 abut against the cabinet 2, and then nailing the screw 5 into the cabinet 2 through the screw hole 401, when the screw head abuts against the right end of the adjusting screw 4, the screw 5 will not be able to be nailed into the cabinet 2, thereby achieving a limiting effect on the screw 5. Furthermore, the right end of the sleeve 3 will not press on the side wall of the inner tank 1, avoiding excessive nailing of the screw 5 and causing the inner tank 1 to deviate to one side, and the sleeve 3 will not damage the structure of the dishwasher.

[0036] like Figure 4-Figure 7As shown, as a further embodiment, the inner wall of the sleeve 3 is provided with an internal thread 301, and the adjusting screw 4 is provided with an external thread 402. The adjusting screw 4 is threadably connected to the sleeve 3 via the combination of the external thread 402 and the internal thread 301. The adjusting screw 4 can be rotated within the sleeve 3 to extend toward the cabinet 2. Specifically, when the adjusting screw 4 is rotated clockwise, the internal thread 301 within the sleeve 3 guides the external thread 402 of the adjusting screw 4 to rotate, causing the adjusting screw 4 to screw into the sleeve 3. The left end of the adjusting screw 4 can extend out of the left end of the sleeve 3 until it abuts against one side of the cabinet 2. Because the adjusting screw 4 can extend toward the cabinet 2 within the sleeve 3, if the gap between the inner container 1 and the cabinet 2 is unequal during installation, the extension length of the adjusting screw 4 can be adjusted, allowing the same type of screw 5 to be used to secure both sides of the inner container 1. This avoids the problem of one screw 5 being unable to properly extend into the cabinet 2 due to a wider gap on one side. For example, when the gap between the left side of the inner tank 1 and the cabinet 2 is wider than the gap between the right side and the cabinet 2, the adjusting screw 4 on the left side of the inner tank 1 can be extended to the left until it abuts against the cabinet 2, and then the screw 5 is placed in the screw hole 401 and moved toward the cabinet 2 until the screw head of the screw 5 abuts against the right end of the adjusting screw 4 and stops moving. At this time, the depth of the screws 5 on the left and right sides of the inner tank 1 inserted into the cabinet 2 remains consistent.

[0037] As a further solution, along the length direction of the adjusting screw 4, a groove 403 is provided on the external thread 402, and an elastic hook 302 is also provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 3; the elastic hook 302 is in an arc shape, one end of the elastic hook 302 is connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 3, and the other end is located in the groove 403 and abuts against the external thread 402. Specifically, along the length direction of the adjusting screw 4 shown, the groove 403 is provided on both opposite sides of the adjusting screw 4, and an elastic hook 302 is provided on both opposite sides of the inner wall of the sleeve 3, see Figure 7 When the adjusting screw 4 is located in the sleeve 3, when the adjusting screw 4 rotates clockwise, the external thread 402 on the adjusting screw 4 will squeeze the inner side of the elastic hook 302 and then rotate; when the adjusting screw 4 tends to rotate counterclockwise, one end of the elastic hook 302 is located in the groove 403 and abuts against the external thread 402, so the adjusting screw 4 cannot rotate counterclockwise under the limitation of the elastic hook 302. The cooperation between the adjusting screw 4 and the elastic hook 302 can make the structure more stable after the screw 5 is nailed into the cabinet 2.

[0038] In this embodiment, the assembly structure of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet 2 further includes a column 6, which is located between the inner container 1 and the cabinet 2. The column 6 is provided with a second through hole (not shown). The sleeve 3 passes through the second through hole, and one end of the sleeve 3 is engaged with the side wall of the column 6, while the other end is located between the column 6 and the cabinet 2. Specifically, the column 6 is first connected to the inner container 1 by riveting, and then the sleeve 3 is placed on the column 6. The column 6 is used to support and fix the inner container 1.

[0039] As a further solution, an elastic latching protrusion 303 is provided on the outer side of the sleeve 3. A retaining ring 304 is provided at the end of the sleeve 3 near one end of the column 6. The elastic latching protrusion 303 and the retaining ring 304 abut against each side of the column 6, respectively. Specifically, the second through-hole on the column 6 is shaped like a convex bulge, protruding toward the cabinet 2. The elastic latching protrusion 303 on the outer side of the sleeve 3 is close to the retaining ring 304. The gap between the elastic latching protrusion 303 and the retaining ring 304 is slightly larger than the thickness of the sidewall of the column 6, for example, 1mm-2mm. When the right end of the sleeve 3 is engaged with the column 6, the retaining ring 304 is located within the convex bulge on the column 6 and abuts against the right side of the column 6, while the elastic latching protrusion 303 abuts against the left side of the column 6.

[0040] As a further solution, the assembly structure of the built-in dishwasher and cabinet 2 further includes a plug 7, which extends through the first through-hole and engages with it, sealing the first through-hole. Specifically, a resilient clip is provided on the side of the plug 7 near the column 6, which abuts against the side of the inner container 1 near the column 6. The plug 7 blocks the first through-hole and conceals the screw 5, creating an aesthetically pleasing appearance while preventing water in the inner container 1 from splashing onto the side of the column 6.

[0041] In this embodiment, the end surface of the adjusting screw 4 away from the cabinet 2 is provided with a first adjusting slot 404, and the end surface of the adjusting screw 4 closer to the cabinet 2 is provided with a second adjusting slot 405. Both the first adjusting slot 404 and the second adjusting slot 405 are used to assist in the rotation of the adjusting screw 4. For example, a metal rod can be inserted into the first adjusting slot 404, and then the adjusting screw 4 can be rotated by rotating the metal rod, thereby achieving a labor-saving effect.

[0042] As a further solution, the assembly structure of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet 2 further includes a side panel 8, which is disposed between the cabinet 2 and the upright 6. The side panel 8 is provided with a third through hole (not shown), and the end of the sleeve 3 closest to the cabinet 2 is positioned within the third through hole. Since various electrical components are mounted on the inner tank 1, the side panel 8 can cover and protect these components, thereby serving a decorative and protective purpose.

[0043] In summary, an embodiment of the present invention provides an assembly structure of a built-in dishwasher and a cabinet 2, including an inner tank 1 and a cabinet 2, wherein the side wall of the inner tank 1 is provided with a first through hole, and further comprising a sleeve 3, wherein the sleeve 3 passes through the first through hole and one end of the sleeve 3 is clamped with the side wall of the inner tank 1, and the other end is located between the inner tank 1 and the cabinet 2; an adjusting screw 4, wherein one end of the adjusting screw 4 is arranged in the sleeve 3 and clamped, and the other end extends out of the sleeve 3 and abuts against the cabinet 2, and both ends of the adjusting screw 4 are open and a screw hole 401 is provided inside; a screw 5, wherein the screw 5 passes through the screw hole 401, and the screw head of the screw 5 abuts against the outer side of the end of the adjusting screw 4 away from the cabinet 2, and the end of the screw 5 away from the screw head is arranged in the cabinet 2. In the present invention, by making one end of the adjusting screw 4 abut against the cabinet 2, and then nailing the screw 5 into the cabinet 2 through the screw hole 401, when the screw head abuts against the other end of the adjusting screw 4, the screw 5 will not be able to be nailed into the cabinet 2, thereby achieving a limiting effect on the screw 5, avoiding the screw 5 from being nailed too hard and causing the inner tank 1 to deviate to one side.
