[0030] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments do not limit the present invention, and any structural, methodological, or functional modifications made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] If the description of this invention involves orientation (e.g., up, down, left, right, front, back, outside, inside, etc.), then the orientations involved need to be defined. For example, "To clearly express the position and direction described in this invention, the end closer to the operator is the proximal end, and the end farther from the operator is the distal end." Or, the paper surface can be used as a reference, or the depth direction of the wine cabinet door can be used as a reference, etc. Of course, if the positional relationship between the two is defined by mutual reference in the subsequent description, then this definition is not required.

[0032] To address the problem of inconvenient installation of display panel mounting components onto wine cabinet doors in existing technologies, this invention provides a wine cabinet door.

[0033] This embodiment of a wine cabinet door comprises a display panel mounting assembly 1, a door frame formed by multiple hollow square columns 2 fixedly connected together, and a glass door panel 3. Typically, there are four hollow square columns 2, which are fixedly connected to form the door frame. The glass door panel 3 is fixedly mounted on the door frame. The display panel mounting assembly 1 is embedded in any one of the multiple hollow square columns, usually on the upper edge of the door frame. The display portion of the display panel mounting assembly 1 abuts against the glass door panel 3. Multiple door ribs 25 are provided on the inner walls of the two side walls of the glass door panel 3, perpendicular to them and parallel to them. The fixing portion of the display panel mounting assembly 1 can pass between any two adjacent door ribs 25 and abut against the surface of the multiple door ribs 25 near the glass door panel 3. Furthermore, the fixing portion of the display panel mounting assembly 1 can apply pressure towards the multiple door ribs 25. During installation, the operator inserts the fixing part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 between two adjacent door ribs 25 to abut the display part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 against the glass door panel 3. Then, the display panel mounting assembly is moved along a direction parallel to the hollow square column 2, so that the fixing part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 abuts against the surface of the door rib 25 near the glass door panel 3. Since the display part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 is already abutting against the glass, during the abutment process between the fixing part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 and the door rib 25, the fixing part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 will apply pressure toward the door rib 25. The hollow square column 2 has multiple door ribs 25 arranged on the inner walls of both sides perpendicular to the glass door panel 3 in a direction parallel to it. The fixing part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 abuts against multiple door ribs 25 respectively and applies a clamping force toward multiple door ribs 25, thereby achieving rapid fixation and embedding of the display panel mounting assembly 1 into the hollow square column 2.

[0034] Furthermore, in order to ensure the display effect of the display section, the display section of the display panel mounting assembly 1 includes a bracket 11 with a hollow display area 111 and a display panel 13. The bracket 11 is fixedly connected to the display panel 13. One side of the bracket 11 abuts against the glass door panel 3, and the other side of the bracket 11 abuts against the display panel 13. The hollow display area 111 is disposed through the bracket 11. One end of the hollow display area 111 is connected to the display area of ​​the display panel 13, and the other end of the hollow display area 111 extends outward from the bracket 11 toward the glass door panel 3.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to better fit the bracket 11 and the display panel 13 and prevent the display panel 13 from warping during use and causing display abnormalities, multiple hooks 113 are provided on the side wall of the bracket 11 facing the display panel 13, and multiple mounting grooves 131 are provided on the periphery of the display panel 13. The hooks 113 pass through the mounting grooves 131 and are fastened to the side of the display panel 13 away from the bracket 11. This arrangement can better abut the display panel 13 against the side of the bracket facing the display panel 13.

[0036] Furthermore, to prevent the display panel 13 from shifting from the bracket 11 after prolonged use, thus causing display abnormalities, a plurality of guide posts 117 are provided on the surface of the bracket 11 facing the display panel 13, and a plurality of guide holes 132 that cooperate with the guide posts are provided on the display panel 13. When the display panel 13 is fixed to the bracket 11, the plurality of guide posts 117 are inserted into the guide holes 132.

[0037] Furthermore, the hollow square column 2 includes a first sidewall 21 that abuts against the glass door panel 3 and a second sidewall 22 disposed relative to the first sidewall 21. The first sidewall 21 is provided with a first hollow groove, and the second sidewall 22 is provided with a second hollow groove that matches the first hollow groove. The display panel mounting assembly 1 can be installed into the hollow square column 2 along the second hollow groove. The side of the bracket 11 away from the display panel 13 is disposed in the first hollow groove and abuts against the glass door panel 3.

[0038] Furthermore, the hollow square column 2, perpendicular to the two side walls of the glass door panel 3, includes a third side wall 23 and a fourth side wall 24. The inner walls of the third side wall 23 and the fourth side wall 24 are provided with multiple door ribs 25 in a direction parallel to the hollow square column 2. The fixing part of the display panel mounting assembly 1 includes multiple elastic protrusions 114 provided on the side wall of the bracket 11. The multiple elastic protrusions 114 are provided in a direction parallel to the hollow square column 2. The multiple elastic protrusions 114 can pass between any two connected door ribs 25 and abut against the surface of the door rib 25 near the glass door panel 3. The multiple elastic protrusions 114 apply pressure toward the multiple door ribs 25.

[0039] Furthermore, in order to protect the display panel 13 from damage during use, the display panel mounting assembly 1 also includes a back cover 12, which is fixedly connected to the bracket 11, and the display panel 13 is fixedly disposed between the back cover 12 and the bracket 11.

[0040] Specifically, a snap-fit ​​portion 122 extends from the second end of the back cover 12 away from the back cover 12 on the surface of the first end that contacts the bracket 11. A first fixing portion 115 extends from the second end of the bracket 11 away from the bracket 11 on the surface of the first end that contacts the back cover 12. A clearance groove 116 is provided at the junction of the first fixing portion 115 and the first end face of the bracket 11. The snap-fit ​​portion 122 passes through the clearance groove 116 and abuts against the first fixing portion 115. A riveting portion 121 extends from the first end of the back cover 12 away from the back cover 11 on the surface of the second end that contacts the back cover 12. A second fixing portion 112 extends from the first end of the bracket 11 away from the back cover 12 on the surface of the second end that contacts the back cover 12. The riveting portion 121 and the second fixing portion 112 are riveted together by screws. The screws are fixed in the mounting hole 1121 of the second fixing portion 112 through the positioning hole 1211 of the riveting portion 121.

[0041] To better engage the multiple elastic protrusions 114 of the display panel mounting assembly 1 against the surface of the door rib 25 near the glass door panel 3, a groove 123 is provided on the side of the back cover 12 facing away from the bracket 11. The operator inserts the multiple elastic protrusions 114 into the corresponding adjacent door ribs 25, thereby engaging the side of the bracket 11 away from the display panel 13 against the glass door panel 3. Then, the operator inserts a finger into the groove 123 and moves the display panel mounting assembly 1 along one of the directions parallel to the hollow square column 2. Thus, the elastic protrusions 114 can engage with the surface of the door rib 25 near the glass door panel 3, and the elastic protrusions 114 can provide a clamping force to the door rib 25.

[0042] Furthermore, the first fixing part 115 and the second fixing part 112 of the bracket 11 are respectively provided with screw holes 118. The bracket 11 is riveted to the first side wall 21 by screws through the screw holes 118, which can achieve a double fixing effect, making the fixing between the display panel mounting assembly 1 and the hollow square column 2 more reliable.

[0043] In summary, the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0044] 1. This solves the problem of installation difficulties when mounting the display panel assembly to the wine cabinet door frame in existing technologies;

[0045] 2. The display panel and the bracket are secured by multiple hooks on the bracket, which can prevent the display panel from tilting off the bracket during use, thus affecting the display effect;

[0046] 3. The bracket has multiple guide posts on the side facing the display panel, and multiple guide holes that cooperate with the guide posts are provided on the display panel. The multiple guide posts are passed through the guide holes. This arrangement can prevent the display panel and the bracket from shifting during installation and use, thus avoiding affecting the display effect.

[0047] 4. The display panel mounting assembly also includes a back cover to protect the display panel from damage during use;

[0048] 5. The back cover has a groove on the side away from the display panel. During installation, you can put your finger into the groove to move the display panel mounting assembly, making it easier to connect the elastic protrusion on the side wall of the display panel mounting assembly to the door rib on the inner wall of the hollow square column.

[0049] It should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This way of describing the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
