[Technical field]

[0001] The utility model relates to a cabinet door with a reversible operating panel and a dishwasher. [Background technology]

[0002] A dishwasher is a kitchen appliance that can automatically wash bowls, chopsticks, plates, dishes, knives and forks and other tableware. The panel assembly of the dishwasher is usually fixed on the cabinet door of the dishwasher, and the dishwasher is usually placed on the ground or in a cabinet. When the user stands and looks down, the reflection of the dishwasher cabinet door can easily block the function keys on the panel assembly, causing the user to feel dizzy and have difficulty operating the dishwasher correctly, so the user can only squat or bend over to operate it.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements. [Utility Model Content]

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above problems. We provide a cabinet door with a flippable operating panel. The panel assembly on the cabinet door is a movable structure, which can solve the reflection problem.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a cabinet door with a flippable operation panel, which includes a door body, a panel assembly and a mounting seat, the mounting seat is fixedly installed on the door body, the panel assembly is arranged on the front side of the mounting seat, the panel assembly is rotatably connected to the mounting seat and can rotate relative to it so that the operation surface of the panel assembly faces forward or obliquely upward.

[0006] In one or more embodiments, the panel assembly is provided with a connecting arm, and one or more positioning points are provided on the mounting seat. The positioning points are located on the trajectory along which the connecting arm moves when the panel assembly rotates, and the connecting arm is provided with a clamping portion that cooperates with the positioning points for positioning.

[0007] In one or more embodiments, the clamping portion includes a ball and a spring, both of which are disposed in a connecting arm, the connecting arm has a through hole through which a portion of the ball extends, and the spring abuts against the ball and the connecting arm, respectively.

[0008] In one or more embodiments, a retaining rib is provided on the mounting seat to prevent the connecting arm from loosening.

[0009] In one or more embodiments, the number of the positioning points is two, and the two positioning points correspond to the position of the operating surface of the panel assembly when it faces forward and when it faces diagonally upward, respectively.

[0010] In one or more embodiments, a support portion is provided on a side of the mounting seat facing the panel assembly, and the support portion is used to abut against the panel assembly to limit its rotation.

[0011] In one or more embodiments, pivot shafts are provided on both left and right sides of the panel assembly, and shaft holes that cooperate with the pivot shafts are provided on both left and right sides of the mounting seat.

[0012] In one or more embodiments, the front side of the door body has a recessed mounting position, the mounting seat is fixedly mounted on the mounting position, and the bottom of the mounting seat has a hand-grip position.

[0013] The present application also provides a dishwasher having the above-mentioned cabinet door.

[0014] Compared with the background technology, the utility model has the following effects: when using the dishwasher, the user can rotate the panel assembly so that the panel assembly faces obliquely upwards, which not only allows the user to clearly see the operating surface of the panel assembly and operate accurately, but also solves the reflection problem and eliminates the need for the user to bend over or squat to operate the dishwasher.

[0018] In order to deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 The present application provides a cabinet door with a flippable operation panel, which includes a door body 1, a panel assembly 2 and a mounting seat 3. The mounting seat 3 is installed and fixed on the door body 1. Specifically, the front side of the door body 1 has a recessed mounting position 11, and the mounting seat 3 is installed and fixed on the mounting position near the top. The bottom of the mounting seat has a hand-holding position 12. The panel assembly 2 is arranged on the front side of the mounting seat 3. The panel assembly 2 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 3 and can be rotated relative to it so that the operation surface of the panel assembly 2 faces forward or obliquely upward. When the user needs to operate the dishwasher, by rotating the panel assembly toward obliquely upward, the user's line of sight can easily face the operation surface of the panel assembly, and the user can better know the position of each function key on the operation surface, so that the user can operate the dishwasher accurately.

[0020] The panel assembly 2 is provided with a connecting arm 4, and one or more positioning points 5 are provided on the mounting seat 3. The positioning points are located on the track of the connecting arm following the rotation of the panel assembly. The connecting arm 4 is provided with a clamping part that cooperates with the positioning point 5 for positioning. By using the cooperation between the clamping part and the positioning point, the panel assembly can be kept at a certain rotation angle. For example, when there is only one positioning point, the positioning point can be set at the position when the operating surface of the panel assembly faces obliquely upward, so as to keep the operating surface obliquely upward, so that the user can better observe the function keys on the operating surface. Preferably, the number of positioning points 5 is two, and the two positioning points 5 correspond to the position when the operating surface of the panel assembly 2 faces forward and obliquely upward, respectively. When the user is using the dishwasher, the operating surface of the panel assembly is kept at an obliquely upward rotation angle; when the dishwasher is not used temporarily, the operating surface of the panel assembly is kept at an angle facing forward.

[0021] The clamping part includes a ball 6 and a spring, both of which are arranged in the connecting arm 4. The connecting arm has a through hole for a part of the ball 6 to extend out, and the spring abuts against the ball and the connecting arm respectively. The ball can reduce friction, and after the panel assembly is rotated to a suitable position, it can be quickly popped out and clamped on the positioning point under the action of the spring.

[0022] In order to prevent the panel assembly from getting loose when the user rotates it, a retaining rib 7 is provided on the mounting seat 3 to prevent the connecting arm 4 from getting loose.

[0023] The mounting seat 3 is provided with a supporting portion 8 on one side facing the panel assembly, and the supporting portion is used to abut against the panel assembly 2 to limit its rotation, thereby preventing the panel assembly from rotating excessively.

[0024] The left and right sides of the panel assembly 2 are provided with pivot shafts 9, and the left and right sides of the mounting seat 3 are provided with shaft holes 10 that cooperate with the pivot shafts. The cooperation between the pivot shafts and the shaft holes can realize the rotation of the panel assembly, and the rotation structure is simple and reliable.

[0025] The present application also provides a dishwasher having the above-mentioned cabinet door.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. Any equivalent modifications or changes made by ordinary technicians in this field based on the contents disclosed in the present invention should be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
