[0015] The present invention will be further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0016] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the side support plates of a washing machine support frame described in the present invention are used in pairs and are arranged on the two sides of the washing machine support frame. The main body is a square structure, and the four sides are integrally formed injection molded parts 1, with a space in the middle, and oblique reinforcement ribs 2 are respectively arranged at the internal corners. Bolt holes 3 are reserved on the outer side and end faces of the injection molded part. The size of the side end faces of the injection molded part 1 gradually decreases from bottom to top, and a shock absorber base 6 is provided on the inner side of the lower side 4 of the injection molded part, and a sheet metal part 11 is fixed on the upper side 5 of the injection molded part, and a suspension spring holder 7 is provided above the sheet metal part 11, and a nut 9 is embedded in the bottom surface of the injection molded part.

[0017] The side support plates of the support frame of a washing machine described in the present invention are reinforced with sheet metal parts 11 above the injection molded parts. The sheet metal parts can be fixed by screws or integrally formed with the injection molded parts in a mold. A base plate is installed on the bottom surface, and a front support plate and a rear support plate are installed between the two side support plates. The installation is convenient and quick, and the expandability is large, and it can be compatible with frames of other models.

[0018] The upper and lower sides of the side support plate of the present invention are parallel, and the left and right sides are inclined inwards, that is, the size of the injection molded part 1 gradually decreases from bottom to top (slightly tapered), and the inward shape can improve the stability of the frame.

[0019] The washing machine support frame described in the present invention has a drum placed inside, which will vibrate when washing clothes. The present invention provides a shock absorber base 6 on the inner side of the lower part 4 of the injection molded part, which is used to install the shock absorber and connect the lower part of the drum. A sheet metal part 11 is fixed on the upper part 5 of the injection molded part, and a hanging spring holder 7 is provided above the sheet metal part 11, and a hanging spring 12 is installed to connect the upper part of the drum. The number of the shock absorber bases is two or more, and the hanging spring holder is arranged in the middle of the upper part of the injection molded part. The hanging spring holder and the two shock absorber bases are arranged in an isosceles triangle, so that the force is evenly distributed, so that the vibration of the washing machine is within a controllable range. In addition, the side support plate is an integrally formed injection molded part, and there are several horizontal and longitudinal reinforcing plates 8 in the middle of the injection molded part 1, which not only increase the frame strength but also reduce the overall noise.

[0020] The present invention embeds nuts 9 in the bottom surface of the injection molded part, which can fine-tune the height according to the adjustment feet to make the support frame more stable, and can also directly transmit the vibration of the frame to the bottom corner to reduce the amplitude.

[0021] The bolt holes 3 reserved on the outer side surface and the end surface of the injection molded part of the present invention are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0022] The upper end of the outer surface of the injection molded part of the present invention is provided with a limit strip 10 which matches the notches at both ends of the front cross beam and plays a positioning role, facilitating quick installation.

[0023] In addition, the side support plate of the washing machine support frame of the present invention is an integrally formed injection molded part 1, which reduces the weight of the whole machine; Moreover, it has low cost, is easy to make and promote.

[0024] It should be noted that the above content only illustrates the technical idea of ​​the present invention and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications all fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
