Detailed Description

The technical scheme of the invention is further explained by the specific implementation mode in combination with the attached drawings.

The first preferred embodiment:

the preferred embodiment discloses an upper cover of a washing machine. As shown in fig. 1 to 5, the upper cover includes a cover body 1, bottom edges of two adjacent side surfaces 11 of the cover body 1 respectively extend outwards to form a baffle plate 12, a decorative edge 2 is arranged between the side surfaces 11 and the baffle plate 12, and the decorative edge 2, the side surfaces 11 and the baffle plate 12 enclose a structure with a cavity inside.

The baffle 12 enlarges the covering area of the cover body 1, ensures that the washing liquid in the washing barrel can not splash between the decorative edge 2 and the cover body 1, has good sealing effect, good waterproof performance and more beautiful appearance.

The decorative edge 2 comprises an inclined surface 21 and a vertical surface 22 which are connected, the inclined surface 21 is buckled and connected with the side surface 11 through a buckling component, and the vertical surface 22 is buckled and connected with the baffle plate 12 through a buckling component.

The buckling component comprises a buckling ring 31 and a buckle 32 which are matched; the clip 32 is adhered to the plane on which it is placed or is integrally injection-molded with the plane on which it is placed. The grommet 31 is a through hole formed on a grommet base 33 for accommodating the clip 32.

When the clip 32 is bonded to a plane on which it is located, as shown in fig. 8, the clip 32 includes two vertical arms 321 and a cross arm 322 connected between the two vertical arms 321, and the two vertical arms 321 and the cross arm 322 form a U-shape; the two vertical arms 321 and the horizontal arm 322 have a connecting surface 323 formed on the back surface thereof for fixed connection to the plane thereof, and a mating surface 324 formed on the outer side surface thereof for mating with the grommet 31. The two vertical arms 321 and the cross arm 322 enclose a concave 325, and the buckle 32 can deform towards the concave 325 when the buckling component is buckled or separated, so that the use is convenient, and the buckling effect is good.

When the buckle 32 is formed by integral injection molding with the plane on which the buckle is located, the buckle 32 comprises two vertical arms 321 formed by protruding outwards from the plane on which the buckle is located and a cross arm 322 located between the two vertical arms 321, and the two vertical arms 321 and the cross arm 322 form a U shape; mating surfaces 324 for mating with the retaining ring 31 are formed on the outer side surfaces of the two vertical arms 321 and the cross arm 322; the two vertical arms 321 and the cross arm 322 define a concave portion 325, and the buckle 32 can deform toward the concave portion 325 when the buckling assembly is buckled or separated, so that the buckling effect is good.

For convenience of processing and use, the front surface of the vertical arm 321 is inclined, so that the situation that the buckle 32 cannot be completely clamped into the retaining ring 31 due to the fact that the vertical arm 321 is too high is avoided.

The inclined surface 21 and the baffle plate 12 are respectively provided with a plurality of retaining rings 31, and the side surface 11 and the vertical surface 22 are respectively provided with a plurality of buckles 32; a plurality of retaining rings 31 can be respectively arranged on the inclined surface 21 and the vertical surface 22, and a plurality of buckles 32 can be respectively arranged on the side surface 11 and the baffle plate 12; it is also possible to provide a plurality of catches 32 on the inclined surface 21 and the vertical surface 22, respectively, and a plurality of retaining rings 31 on the side surface 11 and the baffle plate 12, respectively. The three setting modes do not influence the installation and the use of the decorative edge 2. The inclined plane 21 and the baffle 12 are respectively provided with a plurality of retaining rings 31, the side surface 11 and the vertical surface 22 are respectively provided with a plurality of buckles 32, and the buckling firmness is better.

As shown in fig. 1 and 6, the inner side surface of the decorative border 2 is provided with a clamping rib 4, and the edge of the clamping rib 4 in a step shape can be clamped on the retaining ring base 33; as shown in fig. 1, 6 and 7, the decorative clip edge 23 is provided on the decorative clip edge 2, and the decorative clip edge 23 can be engaged with the body clip edge 13 of the cap body 1 after installation.

The cooperation of the retaining ring 31 and the buckle 32 can ensure that the cover body 1 and the decorative edge 2 do not generate relative displacement in the up-down direction and the front-back direction; the cooperation of the clamping rib 4 and the clamping ring base 33 and the cooperation of the decorative clamping edge 23 and the body clamping edge 13 can ensure that the cover body 1 and the decorative edge 2 do not generate relative displacement in the left and right directions. The "vertical direction", "front-back direction", and "left-right direction" as used herein are relative orientation concepts, and are not intended to limit the specific configuration.

In addition, the clamping ribs 4 can enhance the decorative edge 2 to have certain anti-collision capacity, and damage caused by collision in transportation or use is avoided.

The decorative edge 2 is made of transparent materials, so that the appearance is more attractive; and can set up the illuminating part in the cavity structure that the border 2, side 11 and baffle 12 enclose, light can see through from transparent border 2, improves user experience through the colour that sets up light individuality.
