Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a household appliance panel and a household appliance. Background Art

[0002] The information provided in this part is only background information related to the present disclosure, and it is not necessarily prior art.

[0003] At present, the skin-friendly effect of the refrigerator glass panel is achieved by corroding the glass surface with hydrofluoric acid in an acid pickling tank. A large number of irregular holes are corroded on the glass surface by hydrofluoric acid. By controlling process parameters such as acid solution concentration and pickling time, the size of the corrosion holes can be controlled, so as to obtain glass substrates with different roughnesses. By controlling the size of the roughness, an ideal glass surface with a skin-friendly effect can be obtained. The refrigerator glass panel with a skin-friendly effect is an appearance material that uses acid etching on the back of the original sheet to screen-print color patterns, thus presenting various color appearances and having a skin-friendly tactile effect. However, the acid etching glass process is complex and costly. When manufacturing the acid-etched original sheet, the hydrofluoric acid mist is highly harmful to the human body and causes serious environmental pollution. Moreover, acid etching damages the stress layer on the glass surface and reduces the physical properties of the glass, especially the impact resistance of the glass. Summary of the Utility Model

[0036] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present utility model provides a household appliance panel 20, the household appliance panel 20 includes an excimer resin layer 21 and a glass plate body 22, the excimer resin layer 21 covers at least a part of the plate surface of the glass plate body 22, and a matte structure 211 with a skin-friendly effect is provided on the side of the excimer resin layer 21 facing away from the glass plate body 22.

[0037] It can be understood that the household appliance panel 20 can be the panel of the refrigerator door body 12, or the panel of the freezer door body 12, or the panel of other appliances with a door body 12. The household appliance panel 20 is installed on the outer side of the door body 12, that is, the side of the door body 12 facing the user. Specifically, the household appliance panel 20 can be installed on the outer side of the door body 12 by means of embedded installation or bonding. The main body of the household appliance panel 20 is a glass plate body 22, and the glass plate body 22 can be made of float glass or other flat glass by tempering. Float glass is made from raw materials such as sea sand, quartz sandstone powder, soda ash, and dolomite, formulated in a certain proportion, melted at high temperature in a melting furnace. The glass liquid continuously flows from the tank furnace and floats on the metal liquid surface, spreading into a glass ribbon with uniform thickness, flat and smooth, and fire-polished. After cooling and hardening, it detaches from the metal liquid and is then annealed and cut into transparent colorless flat glass. The glass surface is flat, smooth, and has uniform thickness, with small optical distortion. It is used for the household appliance panel 20 with good aesthetics and impact resistance. After the float glass is loaded onto the production line, a cutting machine cuts it into a shape suitable for the door body 12, such as a rectangle, and then grinds its edges to make the edges of the glass smooth. Then the glass is heated at high temperature and cooled to room temperature to strengthen the float glass to form tempered glass. Tempered glass can improve the impact resistance of the household appliance panel 20. After the glass plate body 22 is made, the glass plate body 22 is cleaned and dusted, and then an excimer resin is selected to be coated on the glass plate body 22. The excimer resin can be a resin that can be cured by excimer lamp irradiation, such as polyurethane, polycarbonate, or polyester acrylate. Then the excimer resin is leveled to form an excimer resin layer 21, so that the excimer resin layer 21 is evenly distributed on the glass plate body 22. Then a UV lamp is used to pre-cure the excimer resin layer 21, and then an excimer lamp is used to irradiate to cure the excimer resin layer 21, and a frosted structure 211 is formed on the side of the excimer resin layer 21 facing away from the glass plate body 22, making it have a skin-friendly effect. After the excimer resin layer 21 is fully dried and cured, the surface pencil hardness can reach 6H, and the adhesion can reach grade 0, and the roughness is between 0.2 - 2.0 um, making the household appliance panel 20 have a skin-friendly effect.

[0038] The household appliance panel 20 proposed by the present utility model coats an excimer resin layer 21 on the glass plate body 22, and then forms a skin-friendly surface with a surface roughness greater than or equal to 0.2 um by irradiating and curing with an excimer lamp, which basically does not damage the glass plate body 22, does not reduce the impact resistance of the glass body, and the processing process is relatively safe, does not damage the human body, and does not pollute the environment.

[0039] As Figures 3 to 5 shown, in some embodiments of the present utility model, the household appliance panel 20 further includes a primer layer 23, and the primer layer 23 is disposed between the excimer resin layer 21 and the glass plate body 22, and the hardness of the primer layer 23 is greater than the hardness of the excimer resin layer 21.

[0040] It is understandable that, in order to improve the connection reliability between the excimer resin layer 21 and the glass body, an underlayer 23 can be provided between the excimer resin layer 21 and the glass body. The underlayer 23 can be formed by coating a resin material such as acrylic acid on the glass body and curing it by irradiating the resin material such as acrylic acid with an ultraviolet lamp. The provision of the underlayer 23 can enhance the adhesion between the excimer resin layer 21 and the glass body.

[0041] As Figures 3 to 5 shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the underlayer 23 is an ultraviolet-curable resin layer.

[0042] It is understandable that the underlayer 23 can be an ultraviolet-curable resin layer, that is, a photo-curable resin layer. It is composed of resin monomers and prepolymers, contains active functional groups, and can undergo a polymerization reaction initiated by a photosensitizer under ultraviolet light irradiation to form an insoluble coating film. Specifically, the underlayer 23 can adopt bisphenol-type epoxy acrylate or polyurethane acrylate, etc.

[0043] As Figures 2 to 5 shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the household appliance panel 20 further includes a color appearance layer 24, and the color appearance layer 24 is attached to the side of the glass plate body 22 facing away from the excimer resin layer 21.

[0044] It is understandable that a color appearance layer 24 with a color pattern such as a silk screen layer or an ink layer can be provided on the side of the glass plate body 22 facing away from the excimer resin layer 21. While the color appearance layer 24 is provided, the excimer resin layer 21 is also a transparent or semi-transparent structure, so that the user can see the color appearance layer 24 through the excimer resin layer 21. The color appearance layer 24 can cover one side plate surface of the entire glass plate body 22, or cover a part of the plate surface of the glass plate body 22, which is specifically set according to actual needs. In addition, the color appearance layer 24 can be a solid color layer or a pattern layer.

[0045] As Figures 2 to 5 shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the color appearance layer 24 is a silk screen layer.

[0046] It is understandable that the color appearance layer 24 can be formed on the side of the glass plate body 22 facing away from the excimer resin layer 21 by a silk screen process. That is, after the glass body is on the line, it is cleaned and dried. Ink is poured at one end of the silk screen printing plate, and a certain pressure is applied to the ink part on the silk screen printing plate with a squeegee, and at the same time, it is moved uniformly towards the other end of the silk screen printing plate. The ink is extruded from the mesh holes of the graphic part to the glass body during the movement, and then dried to fix the ink, forming a color appearance layer 24 with colors and patterns, improving the aesthetics of the household appliance panel 20.

[0047] As Figures 2 to 5As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, there are multiple silk-screen layers, which are stacked. The appearance of the home appliance panel 20 can be enriched by printing different patterns and colors on the surface of the glass body through one or more silk-screens.

[0048] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the surface roughness of the frosted structure 211 ranges from 0.2 um to 2 um.

[0049] It can be understood that the frosted structure 211 is a frosted surface formed by a plurality of protruding particles, and the surface roughness refers to the average difference between the highest point and the lowest point of the frosted surface, that is, the average difference between the end of the particles away from the glass plate 22 and the end of the particles facing the glass plate 22 in the frosted structure 211. The surface roughness of the frosted structure 211 is controlled within a range of 0.2um-2um so that the particles are not too large or too small, thereby providing a skin-feeling effect.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, the glass plate 22 is a tempered glass plate 22 .

[0051] It is understandable that the flat glass can be cut by a cutting machine after the original sheet is put on the line, and cut into a shape such as a rectangle that matches the door body 12, and then the edge of the flat glass is polished to make the edge of the glass smooth, and then the glass is heated at high temperature and cooled to room temperature, so that the float glass is strengthened to form tempered glass. Tempered glass can improve the impact resistance of the home appliance panel 20.

[0052] The second aspect of the present invention provides a household appliance 100, comprising:

[0053] The box body 10 defines a receiving chamber 11 therein, and the receiving chamber 11 has an opening;

[0054] The door body 12 is arranged at the opening in an openable and closable manner;

[0055] The household appliance panel 20 proposed in the first aspect of the utility model is installed on the side of the door body 12 away from the accommodating cavity 11 , and the excimer resin layer 21 is located on the side of the household appliance panel 20 away from the accommodating cavity 11 .

[0056] The household appliance 100 proposed in the second aspect of the utility model has a door body 12 that can be opened and closed, and the household appliance panel 20 proposed in the first aspect of the utility model is installed on the side of the door body 12 that is away from the accommodating cavity 11. The household appliance panel 20 has a skin-feeling excimer resin layer 21 on its outer surface without damaging the glass body due to acid corrosion. The household appliance panel 20 has good physical properties and can resist impact. The processing process does not harm the human body and does not pollute the environment.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the outer shape of the household appliance panel 20 is adapted to the outer shape of the side of the door body 12 facing away from the accommodation cavity 11. For example, the side of the household appliance panel 20 and the door body 12 facing away from the accommodation cavity 11 are both rectangular and are approximately the same size, so that the household appliance panel 20 can cover the side of the door body 12 facing away from the accommodation cavity 11, improving the overall aesthetics.

[0058] As described above, the above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
