Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of handle installation, in particular to a mounting structure for a handle on a washing machine upper cover. Background Art

[0002] The existing washing machine handle is fixed to the washing machine cover by screws. For example, Chinese Patent No. ZL201920310776.1 discloses a washing machine cover and a washing machine. The cover body includes an upper frame and a lower frame.

[0003] The front end of the upper cover body is provided with a handle, and the handle includes an upper beam plate and a lower beam plate. The upper beam plate and the lower beam plate are provided with a clamping assembly and a fastening assembly on the side facing the upper cover body. The handle is assembled to the front end of the upper frame and the lower frame by mechanical clamping and screw locking. Specifically, the limiting rib III is aligned with the clearance hole on the upper frame, and the handle is pushed toward the upper cover body. The limiting rib I is inserted into the corresponding opening on the upper frame, and the limiting rib III is inserted into the clearance hole on the upper frame. Then the buckle I is clamped with the claw I, and the buckle II is clamped with the claw II. At this time, the upper surface of the limiting rib I automatically abuts with the lower surface of the upper frame, the lower surface of the limiting rib I automatically abuts with the upper surface of the lower frame, and the lower surface of the limiting rib II is pressed on the structural surface of the upper frame and the lower frame corresponding to it at the same time. At this point, the handle is buckled to the front end of the upper frame and the lower frame; finally, screws are driven into the screw columns. At this point, the handle is installed.

[0004] The handle of the washing machine needs to be fixed in the upper cover with screws, and the gripping position of the handle is arranged toward the outside of the front of the washing machine, which is not aesthetically pleasing. Utility Model Content

[0040] A first buckling portion 3 and a second buckling portion 4 with different installation directions are provided between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2. The first buckling portion 3 and the second buckling portion 4 with different installation directions are used to fix the handle 2 on the upper cover 1 without fasteners.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first buckling portion 3 and the second buckling portion 4 are distributed vertically and horizontally between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2, so that the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 can be installed and fixed in the left and right and front and back directions without the need for screws and tools. The operation is simple and convenient, and the fixation is reliable.

[0042] The first buckling portion 3 is arranged in the left and right installation direction between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2, so that the handle 2 can be installed on the upper cover 1 in a left and right limited buckling manner. After the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 are installed, the handle 2 is prevented from moving horizontally in the left and right directions of the upper cover 1.

[0043] The second buckling portion 4 is arranged in the front-to-back installation direction between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2, so that the handle 2 can be installed on the upper cover 1 in a front-to-back limited buckling manner. After the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 are installed, the handle 2 is prevented from moving horizontally in the front-to-back direction of the upper cover 1.

[0044] A position limiting plug-in portion 6 is provided between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 , and the handle 2 is positioned and plugged onto the upper cover 1 through the position limiting plug-in portion 6 .

[0045] The limiting inserting portion 6 is provided between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 in the vertical installation direction, and the handle 2 is positioned and installed on the upper cover 1 along the vertical direction of the upper cover 1 through the limiting inserting portion 6 .

[0046] The limiting plug-in portion 6 includes a limiting plug-in interface 7 provided on the upper cover 1 and a limiting plug-in rib 8 provided on the handle 2. When the handle 2 is installed on the top of the upper cover 1, the limiting plug-in rib 8 is inserted into the limiting plug-in interface 7 downward to position the handle 2 on the upper cover 1.

[0047] When the handle 2 is installed on the upper cover 1, the limiting plug-in rib 8 is aligned with the limiting plug-in interface 7. After the limiting plug-in rib 8 is aligned with the limiting plug-in interface 7, the handle 2 is pressed down to buckle the handle 2 on the upper cover 1. The limiting plug-in rib 8 and the limiting plug-in interface 7 play an installation guide role on the one hand, and the limiting plug-in rib 8 and the limiting plug-in interface 7 play an installation anti-mistake role on the other hand.

[0048] The upper cover 1 is provided with two rows of spaced-apart limiting plug-in ports 7 , which are spaced-apart and staggered on the upper cover 1 .

[0049] The handle 2 is provided with two rows of spaced-apart limiting inserting ribs 8 , which are spaced-apart and arranged on the handle 2 in a front-to-back staggered manner.

[0050] When two rows of spaced-apart limiting inserting ribs 8 are inserted into corresponding limiting inserting ports 7 , the front-rear limiting between the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 is achieved, and the installation is convenient, firm and reliable.

[0051] The first buckle portion 3 includes a first buckle hole 9 provided on the upper cover 1 and a first buckle 10 provided on the handle 2;

[0052] The upper cover 1 is provided with first buckling holes 9 on both sides, and the handle 2 is provided with first buckles 10 on both sides.

[0053] The second buckle portion 4 includes a second buckle hole 11 provided on the upper cover 1 and a second buckle 12 provided on the handle 2;

[0054] The upper cover 1 is provided with two rows of second buckle holes 11 staggered at intervals, and the handle 2 is provided with two rows of second buckles 12 staggered at intervals. When each second buckle 12 is buckled into the second buckle hole 11, the upper cover 1 and the handle 2 are buckled and fixedly connected at the front and rear sides.

[0055] The upper cover 1 is provided with a mounting boss 13, and the handle 2 includes a handle body 15 provided with a mounting cavity 14. When the handle 2 is installed in the upper cover 1, the mounting cavity 14 covers the mounting boss 13.

[0056] The handle 2 further includes a toggle block 16 extending laterally along the inner side of the handle body 15. When the handle 2 is mounted on the upper cover 1, a hand receiving groove 17 is left between the toggle block 16 and the upper cover 1. The user grips the toggle block 16 of the handle 2 from the side and then lifts the handle 2 to open the cover. The user cannot easily see the hand receiving groove 17 on the front of the washing machine. The front of the washing machine has no concave or convex structures, and the appearance is beautiful.

[0057] The handle 2 is in the shape of an elongated strip and extends transversely along the upper cover 1 and transversely covers the upper cover 1 .

[0058] In this embodiment, the handle covers the entire width of the upper cover 1, making it convenient for users to open the cover.
