[0021] like Figures 1-7 As shown, this embodiment of the present invention provides a door assembly with ambient lighting, including a door panel 1, a decorative strip 2, and a diffuser plate 3. The decorative strip 2 is disposed on the outer side of the door panel 1 to provide an ambient lighting effect for the door assembly. The inner side of the decorative strip 2 has a mounting groove 21 corresponding to the diffuser plate 3, and the diffuser plate 3 is disposed in the mounting groove 21. The bottom of the mounting groove 21 has a light-transmitting hole 22 to diffuse the ambient light outward. A lamp mounting portion 23 is formed between the edge of the light-transmitting hole 22 and the edge of the mounting groove 21, and a lamp (not shown in the figure) is disposed inside the lamp mounting portion 23.

[0022] The door assembly with ambient lighting provided in this embodiment is installed at the doorway of household appliances (such as steam ovens, ovens, steam ovens, microwave ovens, etc.). Its connection structure is existing technology and will not be described in detail. The light emitted by the lamp is diffused to the outside of the door assembly through the diffuser plate 3 and the light-transmitting hole 22, providing an ambient lighting effect. This enhances the product's visual appeal and user experience, thereby strengthening its competitiveness. Furthermore, by setting the lamp to emit different colors, dynamic color changes can be achieved, breaking through the limitation of traditional door assembly designs with only one color, further enhancing the product's visual appeal and user experience, and strengthening its competitiveness.

[0023] like Figure 5 , Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, both the mounting groove 21 and the diffuser plate 3 are rectangular with rounded corners. In other embodiments, they may also be circular, rectangular, or other shapes, and are not limited thereto.

[0024] like Figures 8-10 As shown, in order to provide installation space for the lamps, in one embodiment of this utility model, the outer side of the diffuser plate 3 (the side opposite to the decorative strip) is provided with a groove 31 corresponding to the lamp mounting part 23, and the lamp is located in the groove 31. In this embodiment, the groove 31 is an annular groove, and the lamp can be an LED lamp or a light strip. The light-transmitting hole 22 corresponds to the middle of the diffuser plate 3 and is located inside the annular groove. Further, the diffuser plate 3 is provided with a wire hole 32 at the position corresponding to the lamp mounting part 23, so that the lamp cable can pass through the wire hole 32 and connect to the overall circuit on the door panel 1.

[0025] like Figures 11-13 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the diffuser plate 3 and the mounting groove 21 are interference-fitted. In other embodiments, they can also be connected by adhesive, screws, or other methods, without limitation.

[0026] To facilitate precise positioning and connection between the decorative strip 2 and the door panel 1, such as Figures 4-7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the decorative strip 2 has a protruding fixing strip 24 on its inner side, and the door panel 1 has a fixing groove 11 corresponding to the fixing strip 24 on its outer side, with the fixing strip 24 inserted into the fixing groove 11. Further, the fixing strip 24 and the fixing groove 11 can be connected by an interference fit, or the fixing strip 24 and the inner wall of the fixing groove 11 can be fixedly connected by screws, or a combination of interference fit and screw connection.

[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, the decorative strip 2 is made of aluminum alloy.

[0028] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the door panel 1 includes an inner door 12 and an outer door panel 13 (e.g., a glass door panel), with the outer door panel 13 and the decorative strip 2 both located on the outside of the inner door 12. Specifically, the inner door 12 has an upper frame 14 at its top, side frames 15 on both sides, and a lower frame 16 at its bottom. The two ends of the lower frame 16 are respectively connected to the bottom ends of the two side frames 15, and a sealing strip 17 is provided at the bottom of the inner door 12. In this embodiment, the fixing groove 11 is located on the outside of the upper frame 14. Further, the upper frame 14, side frames 15, and lower frame 16 can be made of plastic.

[0029] This utility model also provides a household appliance, including the aforementioned door assembly with ambient lighting. This appliance can be a steam oven, oven, steam oven, or microwave oven. The light emitted by the appliance is diffused to the outside through a diffuser plate, cleverly integrating with the door assembly's design to create a striking visual effect. Furthermore, users can freely change the light color to create a personalized color scheme, enhancing the user experience. The ambient light color can be changed by controlling the emitted color of the light strip or LED lights. Utilizing the material properties of the transparent diffuser plate, the color is evenly distributed on the surface of the door assembly, creating a multi-color gradient effect.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
