Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of furniture, specifically relating to a washing machine cabinet support frame and a washing machine cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Household appliances are now indispensable in every family, and users have increasingly higher expectations for their experience with them. The focus is shifting from the functionality of the appliances themselves to the convenience and comfort they provide. Among these appliances, washing machines are a staple in every household, but the cabinets that come with them are often simply custom-made from particleboard, failing to meet users' needs.

[0003] In the existing technology, washing machine cabinets are generally made of wood. When the washing machine is placed inside, it will vibrate during the washing process. Since the wood is not strong enough, it is easy for the wood to deform or the joints to fall off, which will eventually damage the washing machine cabinet. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a washing machine cabinet support frame and a washing machine cabinet.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a washing machine cabinet support frame. The support frame 10 includes a first rectangular bracket 11, a second rectangular bracket 12 arranged parallel to and opposite to the first rectangular bracket 11, a bottom beam 13 fixedly connected to the bottom back end of the first rectangular bracket 11 and the bottom back plate of the second rectangular bracket 12, a top beam 14 fixedly connected to the top back end of the first rectangular bracket 11 and the top back plate of the second rectangular bracket 12, and a front beam 15 fixedly connected to the top front part of the first rectangular bracket 11 and the top front part of the second rectangular bracket 12. The top of the front beam 15 protrudes from the top surface of the support frame 10. The first rectangular bracket 11, the second rectangular bracket 12, the bottom beam 13, the top beam 14 and the front beam 15 are all made of square tubing.

[0022] When using the washing machine cabinet support frame of this utility model, the first rectangular bracket 11, the second rectangular bracket 12, the bottom beam 13, the top beam 14 and the front beam 15 made of square tubes are welded together to form a support frame 10. Then, the washing machine cabinet panels are fixed on the support frame 10. The washing machine cabinet is fixed and supported by the metal support frame 10, which does not affect the overall shape of the washing machine cabinet, but also increases the strength of the washing machine cabinet and prevents the washing machine cabinet from being damaged during use.

[0023] When placing the washing machine, place it on the top cabinet panel 33, and rely on the support frame 10 to support the top cabinet panel 33 and the washing machine, as detailed later.

[0024] Specifically, the first rectangular support 11 includes a first crossbeam 16, a second crossbeam 17 arranged parallel to and opposite to the first crossbeam 16 above the first crossbeam 16, a first vertical beam 18 fixedly connected to the first end of the first crossbeam 16 and the first end of the second crossbeam 17, and a second vertical beam 19 fixedly connected to the second end of the first crossbeam 16 and the second end of the second crossbeam 17.

[0025] Similarly, the second rectangular support 12 includes a third crossbeam 20, a fourth crossbeam 21 arranged parallel to and opposite to the third crossbeam 20 above the third crossbeam 20, a third vertical beam 22 fixedly connected to the first end of the third crossbeam 20 and the first end of the fourth crossbeam 21, and a fourth vertical beam 23 fixedly connected to the second end of the third crossbeam 20 and the second end of the fourth crossbeam 21.

[0026] The first end of the first crossbeam 16 and the first end of the second crossbeam 17 are respectively welded and fixed to the first vertical beam 18, and the second end of the first crossbeam 16 and the second end of the second crossbeam 17 are respectively welded and fixed to the second vertical beam 19. The first end of the third crossbeam 20 and the first end of the fourth crossbeam 21 are respectively welded and fixed to the third vertical beam 22, and the second end of the third crossbeam 20 and the second end of the fourth crossbeam 21 are respectively welded and fixed to the fourth vertical beam 23.

[0027] Specifically, the lower half of both ends of the front beam 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the second vertical beam 19 and the fourth vertical beam 23, respectively, and the upper half of the front beam 15 protrudes from the top of the second vertical beam 19 and the fourth vertical beam 23.

[0028] By setting the upper half of the second vertical beam 19 and the fourth vertical beam 23 to protrude from the top, a notch is formed at each end of the front beam 15. This notch facilitates the insertion and installation of the first support plate 36 and the second support plate 37 of the bottom plate of the top cabinet panel 33, thereby improving the overall integrity of the washing machine cabinet and the concealment of the support frame 10.

[0029] Furthermore, the first crossbeam 16 is provided with a first connecting hole 24 for fixed connection with the first side cabinet panel 31, the second crossbeam 17 is provided with a second connecting hole 25 for fixed connection with the first side cabinet panel 31, the third crossbeam 20 is provided with a third connecting hole 26 for fixed connection with the second side cabinet panel 32, and the fourth crossbeam 21 is provided with a fourth connecting hole 27 for fixed connection with the second side cabinet panel 32.

[0030] The second crossbeam 17 is provided with a fifth connecting hole 28 for fixed connection with the top cabinet panel 33, and the fourth crossbeam 21 is provided with a sixth connecting hole 29 for fixed connection with the top cabinet panel 33.

[0031] The front beam 15, the second vertical beam 19, and the fourth vertical beam 23 are all provided with a seventh connecting hole 30 for fixed connection with the front cabinet frame 34.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, in another embodiment, to facilitate the simultaneous installation of the washing machine and the dryer, the two support frames 10 can be fixedly connected side by side. When connecting, simply use locking screws to lock the crossbeams of the two adjacent support frames 10.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also provides a washing machine cabinet, which includes a support frame 10 as described above, a first side cabinet panel 31 fixed to the outside of the first rectangular support 11, a second side cabinet panel 32 fixed to the outside of the second rectangular support 12, a top cabinet panel 33 fixed to the top of the support frame 10, and a front cabinet frame 34 fixed to the front of the support frame 10.

[0034] When placing the washing machine, it is placed on the top cabinet panel 33, and the support frame 10 supports both the top cabinet panel 33 and the washing machine. In this embodiment, a back panel can also be fixed to the back of the support frame 10, forming an installation cavity for accommodating the washing machine with the back panel, the first side cabinet panel 31, and the second side cabinet panel 32. It is understood that the height of both the first side cabinet panel 31 and the second side cabinet panel 32 is higher than the height of the support frame 10, and the height of the back panel is also higher than the height of the support frame 10.

[0035] Specifically, the top cabinet panel 33 includes a panel 35, a first support plate 36 fixedly mounted on the bottom first side of the panel 35 for fixed connection with the second crossbeam 17, a second support plate 37 fixedly mounted on the bottom second side of the panel 35 for fixed connection with the fourth crossbeam 21, and an embedding part 38 is provided between the first support plate 36 and the second support plate 37 for the front beam 15 to be embedded and connected.

[0036] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
