Door body component for washing machine and washing machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a door body component for a washing machine and a washing machine. The washing machine comprises a housing, a door body component, and a handle component. The top of the housing is provided with an opening, and the door body component is used for opening or closing the opening. The door body component comprises a door cover glass in the shape of a transparent plate, an upper cover frame, and a lower cover frame. The upper cover frame is on the lower cover frame in a buckling way, the door cover glass is disposed between the upper cover frame and the lower cover frame, and the lower cover frame is in a pivot connection to the part of the opening. The handle component comprises a handle bracket and a door cover handle. The handle bracket is in a pivot connection to the door body component. The washing machine is advantageous in that, by installing the handle bracket onto the door body component in a pivot way, and installing the door body component onto a housing in a pivot way, when a user opens or closes the opening, his arm can freely bend, and user habit of the user is followed. Also, by buckling the upper cover frame on the lower cover frame, structure stability of the door body component is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to a door assembly for a washing machine and a washing machine with the same. Background technique [0002] In the related art, there are mainly two types of door body assemblies used in washing machines. One type of door body assembly is mainly composed of a front door cover frame and a rear door cover frame. Since the front door cover frame and the rear door cover frame need to be assembled together through hinge structures or steel wires , misalignment is prone to occur during assembly or long-term use, and the door cover glass is set on the rear door cover frame, which limits the size of the door cover glass and affects the perspective effect. [0003] Another door body assembly has a door cover assembly with a large perspective window. This door body assembly is mainly composed of door cover glass, an upper cover frame, a lower cover frame and a door handle, wherein the uppe...

[0002] In the related art, there are mainly two types of door body assemblies used in washing machines. One type of door body assembly is mainly composed of a front door cover frame and a rear door cover frame. Since the front door cover frame and the rear door cover frame need to be assembled together through a hinge structure or steel wire , it is prone to misalignment during assembly or long-term use, and the door cover glass is set on the rear door cover frame, which limits the size of the door cover glass and affects the perspective effect

[0003] Another door body assembly has a door cover assembly with a large perspective window. This door body assembly is mainly composed of a door cover glass, an upper cover frame, a lower cover frame and a door handle, wherein the upper cover frame, the lower cover frame, the door cover The handles are all pasted on the door cover glass with 3M adhesive tape. The disadvantages are: 1) Higher requirements for the pasting process; 2) Since the door cover assembly cannot be folded, the operator can only hold it by hand if the door cover assembly is to be opened more than 90 degrees. door handle, which moves the arm up and forward

The action of opening the door cover assembly requires a large range of arm movement and a long distance, which is easier to realize for small washing machines, but for large-capacity washing machines, this design does not conform to the principles of ergonomics
