[0045] The present disclosure provides a fixing member 100 for a household appliance (hereinafter referred to as the fixing member 100 ). Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The fixing member 100 shown includes a first plate 110, which is used to be arranged on the circumferential side wall of the household appliance, and the circumferential side wall of the household appliance is perpendicular to the rear side wall of the household appliance. The first plate 110 is provided with a clamping portion 120 and a fixing portion 130, the clamping portion 120 is located on the side of the first plate 110 away from the household appliance, the clamping portion 120 is used to be detachably connected with the clamping matching portion 220 of the positioning member 200, and the first plate 110 is connected to the household appliance through the fixing portion 130.

[0046] In this embodiment, the household appliances can be embedded in the cabinet 320 so that the household appliances are integrated with the home, thereby improving the integrity of the interior and the user experience.

[0047] The first plate body 110 can be disposed on the circumferential sidewall of the household appliance, and the circumferential sidewall of the household appliance is perpendicular to the rear sidewall of the household appliance. That is to say, the circumferential sidewall of the household appliance includes the top wall, the bottom wall, the left sidewall and the right sidewall of the household appliance. When the operator stands in front of the household appliance, the positioning member 200 disposed on the circumferential sidewall of the household appliance can be observed.

[0048] In this embodiment, the clamping portion 120 of the first plate body 110 of the fixing member 100 can be connected to the clamping cooperation portion 220 of the positioning member 200. When the fixing member 100 and the positioning member 200 are connected through the clamping portion 120 and the clamping cooperation portion 220, since the fixing member 100 is disposed on the circumferential sidewall of the household appliance, it is convenient for the operator to observe the relative position between the positioning member 200 and the inner sidewall of the cabinet 320, so that the operator can perform the positioning operation more intuitively and conveniently during the installation process, improve the precise positioning of the household appliance in the cabinet 320, and reduce the occurrence of damage to the cabinet 320 or the household appliance due to collision, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the operator.

[0049] The first plate body 110 is provided with a fixing portion 130. The first plate body 110 can be installed on the household appliance through the fixing portion 130, so as to facilitate the connection of the positioning member 200 to the household appliance through the fixing member 100. Moreover, when positioning through the positioning member 200, the first plate body 110 can stably support the positioning member 200. The clamping portion 120 of the first plate body 110 is detachably connected to the clamping cooperation portion 220 of the positioning member 200. After the household appliance is positioned and installed through the positioning member 200, the exposed positioning member 200 can be detached, so as to improve the integrity and aesthetics of the household appliance and the cabinet 320, and improve the user experience.

[0050] In some alternative embodiments, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 shown, the first plate body 110 is provided with an installation groove 140. The first opening 141 of the installation groove 140 is used to face the front sidewall of the household appliance, and the second opening 142 of the installation groove 140 is used to face away from the circumferential sidewall of the household appliance. The first opening 141 is communicated with the second opening 142, and the diameter of the second opening 142 is smaller than the inner diameter of the installation groove 140. The bottom wall of the installation groove 140 is disposed opposite to the second opening 142, and the clamping portion 120 is disposed on the bottom wall of the installation groove 140.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first opening 141 of the mounting groove 140 faces the front side wall of the household appliance, and the first opening 141 enables the positioning member 200 to move into the mounting groove 140, so that the snap-fitting portion 220 of the positioning member 200 is connected with the snap-fitting portion 120 of the bottom wall of the mounting groove 140. The mounting groove 140 is provided with a second opening 142, which can facilitate the positioning member 200 to move away from the bottom wall of the mounting groove 140 in the mounting groove 140, so that the snap-fitting portion 120 is separated from the snap-fitting portion 220, and the positioning member 200 is disassembled.

[0052] The second opening 142 is away from the circumferential side wall of the household appliance, and the diameter of the second opening 142 is smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting groove 140, so that the side wall on the side of the second opening 142 of the mounting groove 140 can stop the positioning member 200 in the mounting groove 140, thereby reducing the possibility of the positioning member 200 falling off from the mounting groove 140 through the second opening 142.

[0053] In this embodiment, the diameter of the second opening 142 is the extension length of the second opening 142 along the front-to-back direction of the household appliance, and the inner diameter of the mounting groove 140 is the extension length of the interior of the mounting groove 140 along the front-to-back direction of the household appliance. Alternatively, the diameter of the second opening 142 is the extension length of the second opening 142 along the left-to-right direction of the household appliance, and the inner diameter of the mounting groove 140 is the extension length of the interior of the mounting groove 140 along the left-to-right direction of the household appliance.

[0054] In this embodiment, when the household appliance is installed in the cabinet 320, the side of the household appliance facing the user is the front side of the household appliance, the side of the household appliance away from the user is the back of the household appliance, the lateral sides of the household appliance are the left side and the right side of the household appliance, and the vertical sides of the household appliance are the upper side (top side) and the lower side (bottom side) of the household appliance.

[0055] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping portion 120 includes a clamping protrusion 121, and the cross-sectional area of ​​part or all of the clamping protrusion 121 gradually increases along the direction from the first opening 141 toward the mounting groove 140.

[0056] In this embodiment, the clamping portion 120 includes a clamping protrusion 121. Further, as Figures 5 to 7As shown, the clamping and mating portion 220 of the positioning member 200 includes a clamping through hole 221, and the clamping protrusion 121 is detachably connected to the clamping through hole 221, so that the positioning member 200 is detachably connected to the fixing member 100. When installing household appliances, the positioning member 200 is connected to the fixing member 100 to position the household appliances through the positioning member 200, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the household appliances. After the installation of the household appliances is completed, the positioning member 200 can be disassembled through the clamping protrusion 121 and the clamping through hole 221, so as to reduce the exposure of the positioning member 200 and reduce the occurrence of the situation that affects the integrity and aesthetics of the household appliances.

[0057] The positioning member 200 is installed in the installation groove 140 along the direction of the first opening 141 towards the inside of the installation groove 140. Along the direction of the first opening 141 towards the inside of the installation groove 140, the cross-sectional area of part or all of the clamping protrusions 121 gradually increases. In this way, when the positioning member 200 is installed in the installation groove 140, the inclined wall surface of the clamping protrusion 121 can guide the positioning member 200, so as to improve the installation convenience and accuracy of the positioning member 200.

[0058] Optionally, the clamping portion 120 includes a clamping through hole 221, the clamping and mating portion 220 of the positioning member 200 includes a clamping protrusion 121, and the clamping through hole 221 is detachably connected to the clamping protrusion 121.

[0059] In some alternative embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 6 shown, a guide inclined surface 160 is provided at one end of the bottom wall of the installation groove 140 located at the first opening 141. Along the direction of the first opening 141 towards the inside of the installation groove 140, the guide inclined surface 160 is inclined in the direction away from the household appliance. Further, along the direction from the first end of the positioning member 200 towards the second end of the positioning member 200, the extending length of the clamping through hole 221 is greater than the extending length of the clamping protrusion 121. When the clamping protrusion 121 is clamped in the clamping through hole 221, the side wall of the clamping through hole 221 away from the positioning plate 230 and the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 away from the positioning plate 230 are butted. The prying member can pass through the guide inclined surface 160 and be located in the clamping through hole 221 to apply pressure to the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 and / or the clamping through hole 221, so that the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 and / or the clamping through hole 221 is deformed.

[0060] In this embodiment, along the direction from the first end of the positioning member 200 towards the second end of the positioning member 200, the extending length of the clamping through-hole 221 is greater than the extending length of the clamping protrusion 121. When the clamping protrusion 121 is clamped in the clamping through-hole 221, the side wall of the clamping through-hole 221 away from the positioning plate 230 and the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 facing away from the positioning plate 230 are butted. In this way, there is a space between the side wall of the clamping through-hole 221 close to the positioning plate 230 and the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 facing the positioning plate 230. An operator can insert a prying member into this space and apply pressure to the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 and / or the clamping through-hole 221, so that the side wall of the clamping protrusion 121 and / or the clamping through-hole 221 deforms, thereby separating the clamping protrusion 121 from the clamping through-hole 221, so as to disassemble the positioning member 200 after positioning the household appliance, reducing the occurrence of the positioning member 200 being exposed.

[0061] At one end of the bottom wall of the installation groove 140 located at the first opening 141, a guiding inclined surface 160 is provided. Along the direction from the first opening 141 towards the inside of the installation groove 140, the guiding inclined surface 160 inclines in the direction away from the household appliance. In this way, the inclination direction of the guiding inclined surface 160 is the same as or substantially the same as the inclination direction of the prying member. The guiding inclined surface 160 can avoid the prying member, facilitating the operator to place the prying member in the installation groove 140 and reducing the operation difficulty.

[0062] Exemplarily, the prying member can be a screwdriver, scissors, iron wire, etc.

[0063] In some alternative embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 shown, a positioning protrusion 150 is provided on the side of the first plate body 110 facing the household appliance. The positioning protrusion 150 is used to be adaptively connected with the groove on the circumferential side wall of the household appliance to position the first plate body 110.

[0064] In this embodiment, a positioning protrusion 150 is provided on the side of the first plate body 110 facing the household appliance. The fixing member 100 can be connected with the groove on the circumferential side wall of the household appliance through the positioning protrusion 150 to position the first plate body 110, improving the installation accuracy of the fixing member 100, simplifying the installation steps, and improving the convenience and efficiency of installing the fixing member 100.

[0065] Furthermore, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, the first plate body 110 is provided with a fixing through-hole 131. A fastener passes through the fixing through-hole 131 and is connected with the household appliance. The fixing portion 130 includes the fixing through-hole 131.

[0066] Adopting this alternative embodiment, the fastener passes through the fixing through-hole 131 and is connected with the household appliance, so that the fixing member 100 is fixedly connected with the household appliance, simplifying the installation process and improving the stability and reliability of installing the fixing member 100.

[0067] Optionally, the fastener includes a fastening bolt.

[0068] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a positioning member 200, as Figures 4 to 7 shown, the positioning member 200 includes a second plate body 210 and a positioning plate 230. A clamping and mating portion 220 is provided at the first end of the second plate body 210. The clamping and mating portion 220 is used for detachably connecting with the clamping portion 120. The second end of the second plate body 210 is used to extend in a direction away from the household appliance. The first end of the positioning plate 230 is connected to the second end of the second plate body 210. There is a fold angle between the positioning plate 230 and the second plate body 210. When the clamping and mating portion 220 is connected to the clamping portion 120, the side wall of the positioning plate 230 facing the second plate body 210 can abut against the peripheral edge of the opening of the cabinet 320 to define the depth of the household appliance disposed in the cabinet 320.

[0069] With this alternative embodiment, the positioning member 200 includes a second plate body 210 and a positioning plate 230. A clamping and mating portion 220 is provided at the first end of the second plate body 210. The clamping and mating portion 220 can be detachably connected to the clamping portion 120 of the fixing member 100, thus facilitating the installation and disassembly of the positioning member 200.

[0070] The second end of the second plate body 210 extends in a direction towards the opening of the cabinet 320. The second end of the second plate body 210 is connected to the first end of the positioning plate 230, and there is a fold angle between them. Thus, as Figure 8 shown, the second end of the second plate body 210 can extend out of the cabinet 320, and the positioning plate 230 can abut against the peripheral edge of the opening of the cabinet 320, thereby accurately defining the position of the household appliance in the cabinet 320, especially its depth, so as to position the household appliance.

[0071] In addition, the fold angle design between the positioning plate 230 and the second plate body 210 not only enhances the structural strength of the positioning member 200, but also enables the positioning member 200 to better adapt to the openings of cabinets 320 with different sizes and shapes during installation, improving the versatility and applicability of the positioning member 200. This design enables the positioning member 200 to be applicable to a variety of different installation environments and meet the needs of different users.

[0072] In this embodiment, after positioning a household appliance through the positioning member 200, the disassembled positioning member 200 can also be used to position another household appliance, so as to improve the versatility of the positioning member 200 and reduce the installation cost of the household appliance.

[0073] Optionally, the number of the positioning members 200 can be multiple. The lengths between the clamping and mating portions 220 and the positioning plates 230 of the multiple positioning members 200 are different. In this way, different positioning members 200 can be adapted to household appliances with different depth installation requirements.

[0074] Further, the snap - fitting portion 220 includes a snap - through hole 221, and the snap - projection 121 can be detachably snap - fitted into the snap - through hole 221.
