Problems solved by technology

[0004] In addition, the existing washing machine operation panel has many components, and considering factors such as mutual cooperation and sealing structure cooperation, the overall structure is relatively complicated, and the light source on the display PCB is also far away from the display surface, which affects the display effect.
In the actual environment, even if there is a difference of 0.5cm, the display effect will be quite different

Abstract

The invention discloses a washing machine operation panel. The washing machine operation panel comprises a panel body, a display panel and buttons, the display panel comprises a main light-transmitting part and a plurality of button installation grooves formed in the edge of the main light-transmitting part, the outer side wall surface of the panel body is provided with a subsidence platform used for installing the display panel, the subsidence platform is provided with a plurality of light-transmitting holes and a linkage part used for controlling a corresponding switch on a PCB, the surface of one side of the subsidence platform is provided with thin transparent paster sealing the light-transmitting holes, a seal ring is further arranged between the display panel and the subsidence platform, and the seal ring surrounds the edge of the surface of the inner side of the main light-transmitting part. According to the scheme, the structure is more concise, the display effect is optimized, assembly is more convenient, and a water mist environment is prevented from being formed. The invention further discloses a washing machine utilizing the washing machine operation panel.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a washing machine, in particular to an operation panel of the washing machine. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology and the improvement of people's quality of life, consumers have higher and higher requirements for the performance of front-loading washing machines, and at the same time, their requirements for the operation experience and aesthetic appearance of washing machines are also gradually increasing. In terms of the operation style of the drum washing machine, it is mainly divided into two categories: patch type and button type, and the button type can be subdivided into two types: physical buttons and touch buttons. SMD-type operation panels are not widely used due to factors such as single structure and display effect, and poor control feel. Touch technology has not been popularized on a large scale due to its high cost, easy misoperation, and poor feedback. Therefore, most of ...
