[0035] Specifically, the utility model provides a washing machine, which includes a housing and a display device installed on the housing.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the display device of the present invention includes a housing 1 and a display module 2 and a lamp holder 3 mounted on the housing 1 .

[0037] Among them, the display module 2 is provided with multiple different display icons, and the lamp frame 3 is provided with a lamp groove 31 at a position corresponding to the display icon. A light source (such as LED, etc.) is installed in the lamp groove 31. When the light source is powered on, the display icon corresponding to the light source is illuminated.

[0038] The light sources are electrically connected to the main control board of the washing machine, and the main control board controls the on and off states of each light source. The main control board is also preferably mounted on the housing 1 of the display device.

[0039] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the connection method between the lamp holder 3 and the housing 1 . For example, the lamp holder 3 and the housing 1 may be fixedly connected by fasteners such as screws.

[0040] Preferably, the display module 2 includes a display panel and a display film disposed on the display panel.

[0041] Among them, the display panel is generally a transparent plastic panel, and the display film is installed on the inner side of the display panel. The display film is generally fixed to the display panel by gluing. A plurality of different display icons are provided on the display film. When the display icon is illuminated by a light source, the user can see the illuminated icon through the display panel.

[0042] More preferably, the display film is a display-touch integrated film, that is, the touch film and the display film are made into one film sheet, and the two films are combined into one, which can be used for both display and touch.

[0043] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the housing 1 of the present invention is provided with a first clamping structure 11 , and the display module 2 is provided with a second clamping structure 21 . The first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21 are clamped together to fix the display module 2 to the housing 1 .

[0044] The second clamping structure 21 is specifically provided on the display panel of the display module 2 , and the display panel is fixed to the housing 1 through the cooperation between the first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21 .

[0045] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific structural form of the first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21. For example, those skilled in the art can set the first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21 to a structure in which a snap fits with a clamping plate, or to a structure in which a hook fits with a bayonet, etc. Such adjustment and change of the specific structural form of the first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21 does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0046] Preferably, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the shell 1 is provided with a plurality of first clip structures 11, and the plurality of first clip structures 11 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the shell 1. The display module 2 is also provided with a plurality of second clip structures 21, and the plurality of second clip structures 21 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the display module 2. The plurality of first clip structures 11 are respectively clipped and matched with the corresponding second clip structures 21.

[0047] Exemplarily, a mounting opening 12 is provided on the shell 1, and the shape of the mounting opening 12 is approximately rectangular. The display module 2 and the lamp holder 3 are both installed at the mounting opening 12. A plurality of first clip structures 11 are arranged in a circle along the circumference of the mounting opening 12. The light emitted by the light source installed on the lamp holder 3 just passes through the mounting opening 12 and shines on the display module 2. The shape of the display panel of the display module 2 is also approximately rectangular. A plurality of second clip structures 21 are arranged in a circle along the circumferential edge of the display panel. Two second clip structures 21 are provided on the left edge and the right edge of the display panel, five second clip structures 21 are provided on the top edge of the display panel, and seven second clip structures 21 are provided on the bottom edge of the display panel. When the installation is completed, each second clip structure 21 is clipped into engagement with a corresponding first clip structure 11.

[0048] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific number of the first clip-on structure 11 and the second clip-on structure 21. Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific number of the first clip-on structure 11 and the second clip-on structure 21 according to the specific dimensions of the shell 1 and the display module 2, as long as the display module 2 can be fixed to the shell 1 through the clip-on cooperation of the first clip-on structure 11 and the second clip-on structure 21.

[0049] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the lamp holder 3 of the present invention is provided with an anti-slip structure at a position corresponding to the second clamping structure 21, and the anti-slip structure is located on the side of the second clamping structure 21 away from the first clamping structure 11 to prevent the second clamping structure 21 from separating from the first clamping structure 11.

[0050] That is to say, the second clamping structure 21 is located between the first clamping structure 11 and the anti-slip structure. When the second clamping structure 21 is deformed or moved due to external force impact, the anti-slip structure can block the second clamping structure 21 to prevent the second clamping structure 21 from separating from the first clamping structure 11, thereby improving the connection stability between the display module 2 and the shell 1.

[0051] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific structural form of the anti-slip structure. For example, those skilled in the art can set the anti-slip structure to a strip rib, a plate structure or a block structure, etc. Such adjustment and change of the specific structural form of the anti-slip structure does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0052] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first clamping structure 11, the second clamping structure 21 and the anti-slip structure of the present invention are arranged along the first direction ( Figure 4 The second clamping structure 21 is distributed in sequence along the second direction ( Figure 4The second direction extends in the X direction described above, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0053] Exemplarily, the first direction is the vertical direction, the second direction is the horizontal direction, the first clip structure 11, the second clip structure 21 and the anti-slip structure are distributed in sequence along the vertical direction, the first clip structure 11 is at the top, the anti-slip structure is at the bottom, the second clip structure 21 is in the middle, and the second clip structure 21 extends along the horizontal direction. When the second clip structure 21 is impacted by external force, it may elastically deform or move downward, and there is a risk of separation from the first clip structure 11. By arranging an anti-slip structure under the second clip structure 21, the anti-slip structure can support and block the second clip structure 21, prevent the second clip structure 21 from elastic deformation and movement, or limit the deformation amount and movement distance of the second clip structure 21, thereby effectively reducing the risk of separation of the second clip structure 21 from the first clip structure 11.

[0054] It should be noted that a plurality of second clip-on structures 21 are provided on the display module 2. Those skilled in the art may set an anti-slip structure at a position corresponding to each second clip-on structure 21, or may only set an anti-slip structure at a position corresponding to some of the second clip-on structures 21, and so on. Such flexible adjustments and changes do not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0055] In a specific embodiment shown in the drawings, anti-slip structures are provided only at positions corresponding to the five second clamping structures 21 located at the top edge of the display module 2 .

[0056] In addition, it should be noted that when the installation is completed, the anti-slip structure can be directly placed against the second clip structure 21, or a certain gap can be left between the anti-slip structure and the second clip structure 21, etc. Such flexible adjustments and changes do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0057] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21 have an overlapping portion along the first direction, the size of the overlapping portion along the first direction is n, and there is a gap between the anti-slip structure and the second clamping structure 21, the size of the gap along the first direction is m, n>m.

[0058] For example, Figure 4As shown, the first clamping structure 11 and the second clamping structure 21 have an overlapping part in the vertical direction, and the dimension of the overlapping part in the vertical direction is n. It can also be understood that the undercut amount between the second clamping structure 21 and the first clamping structure 11 is n, and there is a gap between the anti-slip structure and the bottom surface of the second clamping structure 21, and the dimension of the gap in the vertical direction is m. That is to say, the maximum deformation and movement of the second clamping structure 21 is m. By making n>m, the second clamping structure 21 can be effectively prevented from separating from the first clamping structure 11.

[0059] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the anti-slip structure of the present invention is a strip rib 32 extending along the second direction.

[0060] Exemplarily, the strip ribs 32 are arranged in the horizontal direction, are parallel to the second clamping structures 21 , and two strip ribs 32 are provided under each second clamping structure 21 .

[0061] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the end of the strip rib 32 of the present invention is provided with a guide portion 321 , and the guide portion 321 is used to guide the second clamping structure 21 to be smoothly inserted between the strip rib 32 and the first clamping structure 11 .

[0062] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the second clipping structure 21 is inserted from right to left between the strip rib 32 and the first clipping structure 11, and the guide portion 321 is provided at the right end portion of the strip rib 32. When installing the display module 2, the left end of the second clipping structure 21 first contacts the guide portion 321 on the strip rib 32, and is smoothly inserted between the strip rib 32 and the first clipping structure 11 under the guidance of the guide portion 321, thereby completing the assembly of the display module 2 and the housing 1.

[0063] It should be noted that, in actual applications, those skilled in the art may set the guide portion 321 to a guiding slope or a rolling structure, etc. Such adjustments and changes to the specific structural form of the guide portion 321 do not deviate from the principle and scope of the present utility model and should be limited within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0064] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the guide portion 321 is an inclined surface formed on the strip rib 32 .

[0065] During assembly, after the second clamping structure 21 contacts the inclined surface on the strip rib 32 , it will slide upward along the inclined surface, thereby being smoothly inserted between the strip rib 32 and the first clamping structure 11 .

[0066] It should be noted that, in actual applications, those skilled in the art may also configure the guide portion 321 to be an arc-shaped surface, and guide the second clamping structure 21 through the arc-shaped surface.

[0067] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the first clamping structure 11 of the present invention is a clamping plate extending along the second direction.

[0068] For example, a circle of horizontally extending card plates is arranged along the installation opening 12 on the shell 1. When the installation is completed, the second clamping structure 21 on the display module 2 abuts against the end of the card plate to prevent the display module 2 from separating from the shell 1.

[0069] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the second clamping structure 21 of the present invention includes a plate-like portion 211 and a clamping portion 212 arranged on the plate-like portion 211, the plate-like portion 211 extends along the second direction, the clamping portion 212 protrudes from the plate-like portion 211 along the first direction, and the clamping portion 212 is clamped and matched with the first clamping structure 11.

[0070] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the plate-like portion 211 extends horizontally to the left from the display module 2, and the left end of the plate-like portion 211 has an upwardly protruding clamping portion 212, which abuts against the left end surface of the clamping plate (i.e., the first clamping structure 11) on the shell 1. The clamping portion 212 and the clamping plate have an overlapping portion in the vertical direction, and the size of the overlapping portion is n. There is a gap between the top end of the strip rib 32 and the bottom surface of the plate-like portion 211, and the size of the gap is m.
