[0047] In the related art, the overall height of the laundry treatment device is relatively low, and the control module is arranged on the door part of the laundry treatment device, and the height where the control module is located is even lower. During the process of the user operating the control module, the user needs to squat down to check, which reduces the user experience and results in poor human-computer interaction performance of the laundry treatment device.
[0048] Therefore, the utility model designs a cabinet assembly 100 of a laundry treatment device that uses the existing cabinet and sets a control module 3 on the top of the cabinet to meet the height requirement of the control module 3 of the laundry treatment device. Thus, the overall height of the laundry treatment device is increased, there is no need to redesign the cabinet of the laundry treatment device, and the production and design cost of the laundry treatment device is greatly reduced. Moreover, since the height of the control module 3 is increased, the user does not need to squat down to check during the process of operating the control module 3, which improves the human-computer interaction performance of the laundry treatment device and enhances the user experience.
[0049] Next, refer to Figures 1 - 13 to describe the cabinet assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device according to an embodiment of the utility model.
[0050] The cabinet assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device according to an embodiment of the utility model may include: a cabinet body 1, a top cover 2, and a control module 3.
[0051] Among them, the cabinet body 1 defines an accommodation space 102, and the internal structure of the laundry treatment device, such as a laundry treatment cylinder, may be arranged in the accommodation space 102. The top cover 2 and the control module 3 are arranged above the cabinet body 1. The top cover 2 defines an extended space 201 with a side opening 202, and the control module 3 closes the side opening 202. The settings of the top cover 2 and the control module 3 increase the overall height of the laundry treatment device, and the cabinet body 1 can use the original cabinet structure without re-design, reducing the production and design cost of the laundry treatment device. The control module 3 is arranged on the top of the cabinet body 1, and the setting height of the control module 3 is higher. The user does not need to bend down or squat down to operate the control module 3 of the laundry treatment device, improving the human-computer interaction experience of the laundry treatment device.
[0052] For the cabinet assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device according to an embodiment of the utility model, while the cabinet body 1 of the cabinet assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device uses the original cabinet structure, the overall height is increased, the setting height of the control module 3 is increased, and the human-computer interaction experience of the laundry treatment device is improved.
[0053] Among them, the main body 1 of the cabinet defines an accommodation space 102 with a top opening 101. The internal structure of the laundry treatment device can be arranged in the accommodation space 102. The top cover 2 and the control module 3 are arranged above the main body 1 of the cabinet and close the top opening 101. The top opening 101 communicates the accommodation space 102 and the expansion space 201. Thus, the connection structure between the structure in the accommodation space 102 defined by the main body 1 of the cabinet and the control module 3 can pass through the top opening 101 of the accommodation space 102, so that the control module 3 can be conveniently connected to the structure in the accommodation space 102.
[0054] Furthermore, the top cover 2 is arranged above the main body 1 of the cabinet and closes at least a part of the top opening 101. The top cover 2 defines an expansion space 201 with a bottom opening and a side opening 202. The control module 3 is arranged above the main body 1 of the cabinet and closes the other part of the top opening 101 and the side opening 202. Thus, the accommodation space 102 defined by the main body 1 of the cabinet and the expansion space 201 defined by the top cover 2 are communicated through the top opening 101 of the accommodation space 102 and the bottom opening 2301 of the top cover 2. Some internal structures can also be arranged in the expansion space 201 to make full use of the expansion space 201 and realize more product functions. This part of the structure can be conveniently connected to the structure in the accommodation space 102.
[0055] As Figures 3 - 6 、 Figures 10 - 13 shown, a connecting plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the top cover 2 and extends downward opposite to the side opening 202. In other words, the connecting plate 21 is arranged on the side of the top cover 2 opposite to the control module 3 to avoid the setting of the connecting plate 21 affecting the aesthetic appearance of the cabinet assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device. A connecting hole 211 is formed in the connecting plate 21, and a connecting and mating hole 11 is formed in the main body 1 of the cabinet. The top cover 2 is fixed to the main body 1 of the cabinet by fasteners. The fasteners pass through the connecting hole 211 and the connecting and mating hole 11 to connect the top cover 2 and the main body 1 of the cabinet.
[0056] Through the cooperation of the connecting plate 21 and the main body 1 of the cabinet, the top cover 2 can be limited in the direction perpendicular to the connecting plate 21 to avoid the top cover 2 rotating or moving relative to the cabinet assembly 100. Then, the top cover 2 and the main body 1 of the cabinet are connected together by fasteners to realize the assembly of the top cover 2 on the main body 1 of the cabinet.
[0057] In some embodiments, the connecting plate 21 is arranged on the rear wall of the top cover 2 and cooperates with the rear wall of the main body 1 of the cabinet to avoid the setting of the connecting plate 21 affecting the flatness of the appearance of the laundry treatment device and improve the aesthetic appearance of the laundry treatment device. And the connecting plate 21 is only arranged on the rear side wall of the top cover 2 to avoid the setting of the connecting plate 21 affecting the movement process of the top cover 2 in the horizontal direction during the assembly process.
[0058] Referring toFigure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 , a hook 22 extending downward is provided at the bottom of the top cover 2, a limiting hole 12 is provided at the top of the box body main body 1, the hook 22 is snapped into the limiting hole 12, and the cooperation between the hook 22 and the limiting hole 12 can limit the top cover 2. After the hook 22 is inserted into and snapped into the limiting hole 12, the top cover 2 can only move to the side opposite to the direction in which the hook 22 is snapped into the limiting hole 12. At this time, passing a fastener through the connection hole 211 and the connection and cooperation hole 11 can stably connect the top cover 2 and the box body main body 1 together.
[0059] Combined with Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 11 , the control module 3 includes:
[0060] A control box, the control box closes the side opening 202 and an installation port 301 is formed on the side of the control box facing the top cover 2. A plug-in portion 23 is provided on the side of the top cover 2 facing the control module 3. The plug-in portion 23 is inserted into the internal space of the control module 3 through the installation port 301. Through the plug-in cooperation between the plug-in portion 23 and the installation port 301, the seal at the lap joint between the control module 3 and the top cover 2 is realized, preventing substances in the external environment from eroding into the interior and affecting the service life of the clothing treatment device, and ensuring that the cooperation between the control module 3 and the top cover 2 can be closely fitted, avoiding large gaps in appearance and affecting the aesthetics.
[0061] Through the plug-in cooperation between the plug-in portion 23 and the installation port 301, the top cover 2 can also be limited by the installation port 301, so that both sides in the front and back directions of the top cover 2 after cooperation have limiting structures to limit it, ensuring the stability of the setting of the top cover 2.
[0062] Among them, a water guide groove is further provided on the plug-in portion 23 whose length direction extends horizontally.
[0063] Specifically, the top cover 2 and the control module 3 are arranged in a first direction, the limiting hole 12 extends along the first direction and the plug-in portion 23 is connected to one end of the top cover 2 in the first direction. In the state where the hook 22 is inserted into the limiting hole 12, the top cover 2 is adapted to move along the first direction so that the hook 22 is clamped with the panel main body and the plug-in portion 23 is inserted into the internal space of the control module 3.
[0064] Thus, when the top cover 2 moves along the first direction towards the control module 3, the plug-in portion 23 connected to one end of the top cover 2 in the first direction can be inserted into the control module 3, and the hook 22 can move along the first direction in the limiting hole 12 extending along the first direction.
[0065] In some embodiments, the control module 3 is disposed at the front side, the top cover 2 is disposed at the rear side of the control module 3, the limiting hole 12 extends along the front-back direction of the laundry treatment device, and the insertion portion 23 is connected to the front end of the top cover 2.
[0066] Specifically, during the assembly process of the top cover 2, first, the control module 3 needs to be assembled above the box body main body 1, and then the hook 22 on the top cover 2 is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole 12 on the box body main body 1. At this time, the top cover 2 and the box body main body 1 are misaligned, that is, the position of the top cover 2 is behind the final actual installation position of the top cover 2. Move the top cover 2 forward until the insertion portion 23 connected to the front of the top cover 2 can be inserted into the internal space of the control module 3 through the installation opening 301. The hook 22 moves forward a certain distance in the limiting hole 12, the hook 22 is snapped into the limiting hole 12 and hooks the front side edge of the limiting hole 12. The connecting plate 21 provided on the rear side wall of the top cover 2 and extending downward abuts against the rear side wall of the box body main body 1. A connecting hole 211 is opened on the connecting plate 21, a connecting and mating hole 11 is opened on the box body main body 1, and a fastening member passes through the connecting hole 211 and the connecting and mating hole 11 to connect the top cover 2 and the box body main body 1.
[0067] The control module 3 is connected to the box body main body 1. A convex lug 31 protruding downward is provided at the bottom of the control module 3, and a locking hole 13 is provided at the top of the box body main body 1. The convex lug 31 and the locking hole 13 cooperate to limit the control module 3. Under the cooperation of the convex lug 31 and the locking hole 13, the control module 3 has only one degree of freedom of upward movement, and the convex lug 31 on the control module 3 can be inserted into the locking hole 13 from top to bottom.
[0068] Furthermore, the box body assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device further includes: at least one mounting bracket 4. The mounting bracket 4 is fixed to the top of the box body main body 1, and the mounting bracket 4 cooperates with the top cover 2 and / or the control module 3.
[0069] Specifically, referring to Figures 6 - 11 , the mounting bracket 4 is disposed in the expansion space 201 or the internal space of the control module 3, and the mounting bracket 4 is connected to the box body main body 1. The mounting bracket 4 can play a role in supporting and strengthening the top cover 2 or the control module 3 in the expansion space 201 or the internal space of the control module 3.
[0070] In some embodiments, at least a part of the mounting bracket 4 is disposed in abutting contact with the inner wall of the expansion space 201 or the inner wall of the internal space of the control module 3, so as to strengthen the structure of the top cover 2 or the control module 3 by directly contacting the inner wall of the expansion space 201 or being disposed in abutting contact with the inner wall of the internal space of the control module 3, avoiding deformation and collapse of the structure of the top cover 2 or the control module 3 under the influence of external forces, and ensuring the strength and aesthetics of the laundry treatment device.
[0071] Alternatively, the mounting bracket 4 is spaced apart from the inner wall of the expansion space 201 or the inner wall of the internal space of the control module 3, and when the top cover 2 or the outer shell of the control module 3 is deformed by force, it contacts and supports the top cover 2 or the outer shell structure of the control module 3, so as to avoid the setting of the mounting bracket 4 affecting the assembly of the top cover 2 or the control module 3, reduce the production precision requirements for the top cover 2, the outer shell of the control module 3 and the mounting bracket 4, and reduce the production cost.
[0072] like Figures 6 - 11 As shown, the mounting bracket 4 includes: a horizontal beam 41 and two vertical beams 42, the horizontal beam 41 is located above the box body 1 and is spaced apart from the top opening 101 of the box body 1, the upper ends of the two vertical beams 42 are respectively connected to the two ends of the horizontal beam 41, and the lower ends of the two vertical beams 42 are respectively connected to two oppositely arranged side walls of the box body 1.
[0073] Among them, the cross beam 41 is arranged close to the top wall of the top cover 2 or the top wall of the internal space of the control module 3. The arrangement of the cross beam 41 can better support and strengthen the top wall structure of the top cover 2 or the control module 3 outer shell. Two vertical beams 42 are connected to the two ends of the cross beam 41 in the length direction and between the box body 1 to support the cross beam 41, ensure the stability of the setting of the cross beam 41 and ensure the strength of the mounting bracket 4 while supporting the side walls of the top cover 2 or the control module 3 shell.
[0074] Furthermore, at least one mounting bracket 4 is disposed in the expansion space 201 to support the top cover 2, thereby ensuring the stability of the top cover 2 and preventing the hollow top cover 2 structure from collapsing due to the lack of an internal supporting structure.
[0075] like Figures 6 - 9 As shown, the control module 3 is provided with a mounting plate 32, and at least one mounting bracket 4 is provided with a mounting flange 421, and the mounting plate 32 and the mounting flange 421 are connected together by fasteners. The control module 3 is indirectly connected to the box body by connecting with the mounting bracket 4. Specifically, the control module 3 is provided with a mounting plate 32, and the mounting plate 32 extends in the horizontal direction. The mounting plate 32 is provided with a mounting hole 321, and at least one mounting bracket 4 is provided with a mounting flange 421. The mounting flange 421 is provided with a mounting matching hole 4211. The control module 3 is fixed to the mounting bracket 4 by fasteners, and the fasteners pass through the mounting hole 321 and the mounting matching hole 4211 to achieve the connection between the control module 3 and the mounting bracket 4.
[0076] Among them, the mounting bracket 4 is provided with an mounting flange 421 which is located close to the control module 3 and outside the internal space of the control module 3. The mounting plate 32 extends from the internal space of the control module 3 to the outside of the control module 3, and the mounting hole 321 is also opened outside the internal space of the control module 3 to facilitate the insertion of fasteners.
[0077] ReferenceFigure 9 The mounting plate 32 is provided on the side of the control module 3 facing the top cover 2, and at least a part of the mounting plate 32 is inserted into the expansion space 201 through the side opening 202, so as to realize the storage of the mounting plate 32 through the expansion space 201 and realize the shielding of the mounting plate 32 through the top cover 2, ensuring the aesthetic appearance of the box body assembly 100.
[0078] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figures 6 - 8 shown, the mounting bracket 4 has a connecting flange 422 extending outward, and the top of the box body main body 1 has a mating flange 14 extending inward. The connecting flange 422 and the mating flange 14 are connected together by fasteners.

At least one mounting bracket 4 is provided with a mounting flange 421. The mounting flange 421 is provided with mounting mating holes 4211. The control module 3 is fixed to the mounting bracket 4 through fasteners. The fasteners pass through the mounting holes 321 and the mounting mating holes 4211 to realize the connection between the control module 3 and the mounting bracket 4.
[0094] Furthermore, the position of the mounting flange 421 on the mounting bracket 4 is close to the control module 3 and is arranged outside the internal space of the control module 3. The mounting plate 32 extends from the internal space of the control module 3 to the outside of the control module 3, and the mounting holes 321 are also opened outside the internal space of the control module 3 to facilitate the passing of the fasteners.
[0095] The mounting plate 32 is arranged on the side of the control module 3 facing the top cover 2, and at least a part of the mounting plate 32 is inserted into the expansion space 201 through the side opening 202 to realize the storage of the mounting plate 32 through the expansion space 201, and the top cover 2 is used to shield the mounting plate 32 to ensure the aesthetic appearance of the box body assembly 100.
[0096] That is to say, during the assembly process of the control module 3, first move the control module 3 from top to bottom so that the clamping projection 31 on the control module 3 can be inserted into the clamping hole 13 from top to bottom, and the mounting holes 321 and the mounting mating holes 4211 are aligned. Then, pass the fasteners through the mounting holes 321 and the mounting mating holes 4211 to realize the connection between the control module 3 and the mounting bracket 4.
[0097] After the installation of the control module 3 is completed, then install the top cover 2 above the box body main body 1.
[0098] Specifically, a hook 22 extending downward is provided at the bottom of the top cover 2, and a limiting hole 12 is provided at the top of the box body main body 1. The hook 22 is snapped into the limiting hole 12. The cooperation between the hook 22 and the limiting hole 12 can limit the top cover 2. After the hook 22 is inserted into and snapped into the limiting hole 12, the top cover 2 can only move to the side opposite to the direction in which the hook 22 is snapped into the limiting hole 12. At this time, passing a fastener through the connection hole 211 and the connection and cooperation hole 11 can stably connect the top cover 2 and the box body main body 1 together.
[0099] Combined with Figure 6 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 ,a mounting opening 301 is formed on one side of the control module 3 facing the top cover 2. A plug-in portion 23 is provided on one side of the top cover 2 facing the control module 3. The plug-in portion 23 is inserted into the internal space of the control module 3 through the mounting opening 301. Through the plug-in cooperation between the plug-in portion 23 and the mounting opening 301, the sealing at the lap joint between the control module 3 and the top cover 2 is realized, preventing substances in the external environment from eroding into the interior and affecting the service life of the laundry treatment device, and ensuring that the cooperation between the control module 3 and the top cover 2 can be closely fitted, avoiding large gaps in appearance and affecting the aesthetics.
[0100] Through the plug-in cooperation between the plug-in portion 23 and the mounting opening 301, the mounting opening 301 can also be used to limit the top cover 2, so that both sides in the front and back directions of the top cover 2 after fitting have limiting structures to limit it, ensuring the stability of the setting of the top cover 2.
[0101] A connecting plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the top cover 2, which is arranged opposite to the side opening 202 and extends downward. In other words, the connecting plate 21 is arranged on one side of the top cover 2 opposite to the control module 3 to avoid the setting of the connecting plate 21 affecting the aesthetics of the appearance of the box body assembly 100 of the laundry treatment device. A connecting hole 211 is opened on the connecting plate 21, and a connection and cooperation hole 11 is opened on the box body main body 1. The top cover 2 is fixed to the box body main body 1 by a fastener, and the fastener passes through the connecting hole 211 and the connection and cooperation hole 11 to connect the top cover 2 and the box body main body 1.
[0102] Through the cooperation between the connecting plate 21 and the box body main body 1, the top cover 2 can be limited in the direction perpendicular to the connecting plate 21, preventing the top cover 2 from rotating or moving relative to the box body assembly 100. Then, connecting the top cover 2 and the box body main body 1 together by a fastener realizes the assembly of the top cover 2 on the box body main body 1.
[0103] In some embodiments, the connecting plate 21 is provided on the rear wall of the top cover 2 and cooperates with the rear wall of the box body 1 to prevent the setting of the connecting plate 21 from affecting the flatness of the appearance of the laundry treatment device and improve the aesthetic degree of the appearance of the laundry treatment device. Moreover, the connecting plate 21 is only provided on the rear side wall of the top cover 2 to prevent the setting of the connecting plate 21 from affecting the movement process of the top cover 2 in the horizontal direction during the assembly process.
