Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish different objects, and are not used to describe a specific order. The terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof in the embodiments of the present application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product or device including a series of steps or units need not be limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but can include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0031] Embodiment one

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1-6 The embodiments of the present application disclose a household appliance glass panel, comprising: a transparent substrate 1, a transfer bonding layer 2 and a nano layer 3; the transparent substrate 1 has a plate inner surface 12 and a plate outer surface 11 which are away from each other, the plate inner surface 12 is located on the side of the transparent substrate 1 close to the interior of the household appliance; the plate inner surface 12 is combined with the transfer bonding layer 2, the nano layer 3 is combined with the side of the transfer bonding layer 2 away from the transparent substrate 1, and the transparency of the nano layer 3 is less than that of the transparent substrate 1.

[0033] The household appliance glass panel 7 of the present embodiment comprises a transparent substrate 1, a transfer bonding layer 2 and a nano layer 3, the transfer bonding layer 2 firmly combines the transparent substrate 1 and the nano layer 3, ensures that the nano layer 3 can be stably attached to the glass substrate, and guarantees the integrity of the overall structure of the glass panel and the stability of the performance. The nano layer 3 cooperates with the transfer bonding layer 2 and the transparent substrate 1, the transparency of the nano layer 3 is less than that of the transparent substrate 1, this structural design realizes the semi-transparent effect, and also improves the comprehensive performance of the glass panel together with the transparent substrate 1.

[0034] The main function of the semi-transparent nanomembrane layer in this embodiment is not to provide a frosted effect, but to provide a soft and uniform light transmission effect. Frosted treatment is usually used to change the roughness of the material surface to reduce reflection and glare, but the function of the semi-transparent nanomembrane layer is more delicate and diverse. The semi-transparent nanomembrane layer can adjust the light transmittance, so that the light emitted from the backlight light source becomes softer after passing through the membrane layer, reducing the dazzling light and improving the visual comfort. The semi-transparent property of the membrane layer helps to ensure that the light remains uniformly distributed when passing through, avoiding local over-brightness or over-darkness, thereby providing a clearer display effect.

[0035] More preferably, a pet film is located on the side of the nanolayer 3 away from the transfer bonding layer 2, and a release layer is located on the side of the pet film away from the transfer bonding layer 2; the thickness of the pet film is 100-188um, and the thickness of the release layer is 5-10um.

[0036] The thickness of the transparent substrate is 2-5mm, the thickness of the transfer bonding layer is 10-15um, and the thickness of the nanolayer is 10-50nm.

[0037] In the manufacturing process of the household appliance glass panel 7, there is a step of coating a colored nanocoating on a PET film with a release agent, and then transferring it to the inner surface of the household appliance tempered glass using UV glue.

[0038] More preferably, the transfer bonding layer 2 is a uv glue layer, which is used to transfer the nanolayer 3 on the pet film to the inner surface 12 of the plate, and the nanolayer 3 is attached to the pet film by coating; the side of the pet film close to the nanolayer 3 has a release layer, and the pet film can be removed under the action of external force.

[0039] In the embodiment of the utility model, through the process that first coats the colored nano coating on the PET film with release agent, and then transfers the UV glue to the inner surface of the household appliance tempered glass, the front of the glass can present a translucent effect, which can meet the special needs of the household appliance glass panel 7 in vision. Compared with the traditional silk screen translucent process, the translucent film made by the coating process has stable color and variable color, which can provide rich color selection for the household appliance glass panel, meet the individual needs of different consumers for the appearance color of the household appliance, make the household appliance better integrate into different home environment, and improve the overall appearance and market competitiveness of the product. And the translucent film made by the coating process has good uniformity and good permeability, which makes the visual effect of the glass panel more uniform and consistent, without obvious color or transparency difference, which can improve the visual experience of the user and make the appearance of the household appliance more delicate and high-grade. The yield of the coating process is high, which can reduce product defects and scrap caused by process problems in large-scale production process, improve production efficiency, reduce production cost, and increase economic benefit of enterprises. Compared with the film pasting process, the household appliance glass panel made by the method has stronger environmental test performance.

[0040] More preferably, it further comprises a cover bottom protective layer 4 connected with the nano layer 12 through a bonding layer; the cover bottom protective layer 4 comprises a window area 42 and a base area 41 surrounding the window area 42.

[0041] The cover bottom protective layer 4 of the embodiment can protect the translucent nano layer 3 and improve the overall safety and product yield; and when implemented, to provide more comprehensive and diverse display patterns and effects, corresponding patterns can be printed on the cover bottom protective layer 4.

[0042] In the embodiment, the base area 41 surrounds the window area 42, which can block stray light entering from the edge of the glass panel and other non-window areas 42, reduce light scattering and reflection, improve the visual clarity of the window area 42, make the observation of the internal situation of the household appliance through the window area 42 more clear, and reduce interference. By setting the window area 42 and the base area 41, the effective area for users to observe the internal situation of the household appliance is clearly defined, the visual focus is concentrated in the window area 42, the convenience and accuracy of observation are improved, and the design of the glass panel is more hierarchical and standardized.

[0043] When the glass panel is subjected to external force, the cover bottom protective layer 4 can play a certain stress dispersion role, evenly distribute the external force on the surface of the glass panel, avoid stress concentration leading to glass rupture, and improve the impact resistance of the glass panel.

[0044] The division of the window area 42 and the base area 41 allows the household appliance manufacturer to set different functional modules or decorative elements in the window area 42 and the base area 41 according to different functional requirements, such as setting indicator lights, display screens and the like near the window area 42 to provide more operation and display functions for the user and improve the intelligence and humanization of the household appliance.

[0045] More preferably, the window area 42 is one or more, the window area 42 is a transparent or translucent area, and the base area 41 is a translucent or opaque area; the number of window areas 42 is multiple.

[0046] Alternatively, the window area 42 is a hollowed-out area. In specific implementation, the corresponding window area 42 can be set as a hollowed-out area, which is more convenient in the overall implementation process.

[0047] In specific implementation, the number of windows can be flexibly set according to the function and design requirements of the household appliance. For example, a double-door refrigerator can be provided with two windows corresponding to different temperature zones for the user to view conveniently; a multifunctional oven can be provided with multiple windows for observing the conditions of different cooking areas.

[0048] Multiple windows can simultaneously display different information or scenes to meet the user's diversified observation needs. For example, in a household appliance with multiple functional modules, each window can correspond to a functional module, and the user can comprehensively understand the running state of the household appliance without switching the viewing angle.

[0049] More preferably, the cover protective layer 4 proximal to the nanometer layer 3 is printed with a corresponding display pattern; the display pattern is printed on the cover protective layer 4 by printing to represent functional characters.

[0050] Alternatively, the side of the cover protective layer 4 away from the nanometer layer 3 is provided with a pattern layer, and the pattern layer is located on the side of the window area 42 away from the nanometer layer 3.

[0051] In specific implementation, when the display pattern is a functional character, the user can be intuitively informed of the operation information, functional state and the like of the household appliance, such as printing characters such as "heating", "thawing" and "start" on the glass panel of a microwave oven, so that the user can operate the household appliance more conveniently and reduce the probability of misoperation.

[0052] Whether the display pattern is printed on the side proximal to the nanometer layer 3 or the pattern layer is arranged on the side away from the nanometer layer 3, the glass panel can be decorated to make the appearance of the household appliance more attractive and personalized. For example, the pattern layer can be designed as an artistic pattern or texture matching the overall style of the household appliance to improve the aesthetic value of the household appliance and add beauty to the home environment.

[0053] In combination with the window area 42, the pattern layer or display pattern can mark or partition the function of the window area 42. For example, on the multi-window household appliance glass panel 7, different patterns or characters are used to distinguish the function area corresponding to each window, so that the user can clearly understand the function of each window, and it is convenient for viewing and operation. Brand logos, trademarks and other elements can be integrated into the display pattern or pattern layer, which can constantly strengthen the user's cognition and memory of the brand during the use of the household appliance, and help to improve the brand image and brand value.

[0054] More preferably, the transparent substrate 1 is a transparent glass plate, and the nano layer 3 is a translucent nano layer 3, and the light transmittance of the nano layer 3 is 15%-50%.

[0055] The 50% light transmittance nano layer 3 in this embodiment can cooperate with the internal display or lighting system to make the display content clearer and softer, avoid the influence of too strong or too weak light on the display effect, and improve the user's visual experience.

[0056] More preferably, it further comprises a backlight display layer 5, the backlight display layer 5 is electrically connected with a corresponding control module, the backlight display layer 5 comprises a plurality of uniformly distributed lamp beads, the cover bottom protective layer 4 is assembled above the backlight display layer 5, and the backlight display layer 5 comprises a plurality of backlight display areas, each backlight display area corresponds to a corresponding display pattern.

[0057] Through the setting of the backlight display layer 5, the display pattern on the cover bottom protective layer 4 is clearer and more eye-catching under the reflection of the backlight, which can better attract the attention of the user and improve the visual attraction of the household appliance glass panel 7. For example, on the glass panel of the intelligent oven, the display pattern such as function icon and operation prompt can be made clearer and easier to read through backlight display.

[0058] The uniformly distributed lamp beads can provide soft and uniform light, which can not only illuminate the display pattern, but also create a unique atmosphere lamp effect for the environment around the household appliance, so that the household appliance has more technological and fashionable feeling when in use, and adds a warm and comfortable atmosphere to the home environment.

[0059] Each backlight display area corresponds to a corresponding display pattern, which can accurately convey different function states or operation information of the household appliance to the user. For example, on the washing machine, different display patterns correspond to different washing modes, and through backlight display, the user can more intuitively understand the current selected mode, and the possibility of misoperation is reduced.

[0060] When operating the household appliance, the backlight display can provide clear operation guidance for the user. When the user needs to perform an operation, the corresponding display pattern will be brightened or brightened under the action of the backlight, guiding the user to accurately perform the operation and improving the convenience and efficiency of the operation.

[0061] Due to the correspondence between the backlight display area and the display pattern, various unique display patterns and backlight effects can be designed according to different home appliance products and user needs, realizing personalized customization. For example, for different styles of home decoration, display patterns and backlight colors of the home appliance glass panel 7 can be designed to match them, meeting the diversified aesthetic needs of users.

[0062] The backlight display layer 5 of the embodiment enhances the visibility of the display pattern, so that users can clearly see the display pattern and information on the glass panel even at a long distance or in a dimly lit environment, facilitating users to understand the status of the home appliance at any time without the need to approach for viewing, improving the efficiency of information transmission. Clear backlight display enables users to quickly identify the information represented by the display pattern, reducing the time and effort of users to obtain information, improving the interaction efficiency between users and home appliances, and enabling users to make operation decisions more quickly.

[0063] More preferably, it further comprises a display module 6, which is electrically connected with the control module, and the position of the display module 6 corresponds to the corresponding window area 42.

[0064] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the display pattern area 8 here corresponds to the pattern at the bottom protective layer 4, and the dynamic display area 9 corresponds to the corresponding display module 6; when performing specific implementation, various style layouts can be performed according to actual customer needs, Figure 3 and Figure 4 , which are only two of the implementation ways.

[0065] In the embodiment, by setting the touch display module 6, information related to the operation and status of the home appliance can be accurately displayed in the window area 42, such as displaying temperature, running mode, wind speed, etc. at the corresponding position of the window of the air conditioner glass panel, so that users can see at a glance. Users can see the operation feedback, prompt information, etc. presented by the display module 6 through the window area 42, such as when operating a washing machine, the window display module 6 can present a washing progress bar, remaining time, etc., enhancing the interaction between users and home appliances. Different types of information can be displayed according to the functional needs of different window areas 42, such as on a smart oven, one window displays the temperature, and the other window displays the baking time and mode, etc., realizing multi-dimensional display of information. The display module 6 corresponds to the window area 42, making the design of the glass panel more integral and aesthetic, and the window and the display content complement each other, improving the appearance quality of the home appliance. Different shapes, sizes, and numbers of windows and corresponding display contents can be designed according to the positioning of different home appliance products and user needs, realizing personalized customization and meeting diversified aesthetics.

[0066] Specifically, as shown inFigure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the display effect differs significantly under different conditions. When not powered on, the entire glass panel displays as a single unit; when powered on, the corresponding viewing area 42 can be clearly displayed. In practical implementation, it can be connected to a complete display screen or display icons in specific areas; the display scheme can be varied, and the glass technology scheme results in a semi-transparent, semi-hidden effect.

[0067] Compared with existing solutions, the appliance glass panel 7 in this embodiment of the utility model has a better display effect. By using a semi-transparent nano-layer 3, the uniformity of the overall display is better. When the display module 6 is powered off, it blends into the background, improving the overall texture of the appliance.
