Thus, the operation panel 11 has a configuration in which the same decoration as that of the cover 3 described in detail below is applied to the peripheral edge portion, in this case, the front edge portion, the rear edge portion, and both the left and right edge portions.
The cover 3 of the washing machine 1 is configured by two cover components, i.e., a so-called double-folding structure. Next, a configuration example of the cover 3 will be described in further detail. As also illustrated in fig. 7, the cover 3 includes two cover components, in this case, a base-end-side cover component 21 and a tip-end-side cover component 31.
The base-end-side cover forming portion 21 is provided at a position located at the upper portion of the washing machine main body portion 2 and forming the rear portion of the opening portion 6 so as to be rotatable about the rotation shaft portion 8 extending in the left-right direction. On the other hand, the distal-end-side cover forming portion 31 is provided at the free end, which is the distal end of the base-end-side cover forming portion 21, so as to be rotatable about a rotation shaft portion 41 extending in the left-right direction. The base-end-side cover forming portion 21 has a substantially rectangular plate shape. On the other hand, the front-end-side cover constituting portion 31 has a substantially rectangular plate shape whose dimension in the front-rear direction is smaller than that of the base-end-side cover constituting portion 21. The width of the front-end-side cover forming portion 31 in the left-right direction is substantially the same as the width of the base-end-side cover forming portion 21 in the left-right direction. Hereinafter, the configuration examples of the base end side cover constituting portion 21 and the tip end side cover constituting portion 31 will be described in detail.
The base-end-side cover forming portion 21 includes a base member 22 and a glass surface member 23. The base member 22 is a member constituting the rear surface side portion of the base end side cover constituting portion 21, and is made of a crystalline synthetic resin material having high chemical resistance and high strength, for example. Examples of the crystalline resin material include polypropylene resin, polyethylene terephthalate resin, polyacetal resin, and the like. The base member 22 constitutes the back surface of the base-end-side cover constituting portion 21, i.e., the surface on the opening 6 side. The back surface of the base-end-side cover forming portion 21 is a surface that becomes a lower surface in a closed state where the cover 3 closes the opening 6 and becomes a front surface in an open state where the cover 3 opens the opening 6. Further, a turning shaft 41 for rotatably supporting the distal end side cover constituting portion 31 is provided on the distal end side of the base member 22.
The base member 22 includes a decorative member 24 between the glass surface member 23 and the base member. The decorative member 24 is an example of a holding member, and is a structure in which a plating process is performed as an example of a decoration process on a surface of a base material constituting the decorative member 24. Further, the decorative member 24 is provided in a substantially rectangular frame shape so as to correspond to the peripheral edge portion of the base member 22. The decoration member 24 is fixed to the surface side of the base member 22.
The glass surface material 23 is a member constituting the surface of the base-end-side-cover constituting portion 21 among the surfaces of the cover 3, and is formed of, for example, a thin plate-like hard glass plate having a thickness of about several mm. In addition, the glass surface member 23 may be colored, and may be colorless transparent or colored transparent. The glass surface material 23 is adhered to the decorative member 24 fixed to the base member 22 via a plurality of double-sided adhesive tapes 42. Thereby, the glass surface member 23 is stably and stably held by the decorative member 24 at the base end side cover constituting portion 21.
The glass surface piece 23 constitutes a surface of the base-end-side-cover constituting portion 21. The surface of the base-end-side cover forming portion 21 is a surface that becomes an upper surface in a closed state where the cover 3 closes the opening 6 and becomes a rear surface in an open state where the cover 3 opens the opening 6. Thus, the glass surface piece 23 constitutes the upper surface of the base-end-side-cover constituting portion 21 in the closed state in which the cover 3 closes the opening portion 6.
The distal-end-side cover forming portion 31 includes a base member 32 and a glass surface member 33. The base member 32 is a member constituting the rear surface side portion of the distal end side cover constituting portion 31, and is made of a crystalline synthetic resin material having high chemical resistance and high strength, for example. Examples of the crystalline resin material include polypropylene resin, polyethylene terephthalate resin, polyacetal resin, and the like. The base member 32 constitutes the back surface of the distal-end-side cover constituting portion 31, i.e., the front surface on the opening 6 side. The back surface of the front-end-side cover forming portion 31 is a surface that becomes a lower surface in a closed state where the cover 3 closes the opening 6 and becomes a rear surface in an open state where the cover 3 opens the opening 6.
The base member 32 includes a decorative member 34 between the glass surface member 33 and the base member. The decorative member 34 is an example of a holding member, and is a structure in which a plating process is performed as an example of a decoration process on a surface of a base material constituting the decorative member 34. In addition, the decorative member 34 is provided in a substantially rectangular frame shape so as to correspond to the peripheral edge portion of the base member 32. The decoration member 34 is fixed to the surface side of the base member 32.
The glass surface piece 33 is a member constituting the surface of the distal-end-side cover constituting portion 31 out of the surfaces of the cover 3, and is formed of, for example, a thin plate-like hard glass plate having a thickness of about several mm. The glass surface member 33 may be colored, colorless or colored and transparent. The glass surface member 33 is bonded to the decorative member 34 fixed to the base member 32 via a plurality of double-sided adhesive tapes 42. Thereby, the glass surface member 33 is stably and stably held by the decorative member 34 at the front end side cover constituting portion 31.
The glass surface member 33 constitutes the surface of the distal-end-side cover constituting portion 31. The front-end-side cover forming portion 31 has a surface that becomes an upper surface in a closed state where the cover 3 closes the opening 6 and a surface that becomes a front surface in an open state where the cover 3 opens the opening 6. Thus, the glass surface piece 33 constitutes the upper surface of the distal-end-side cover constituting portion 31 in the closed state where the cover 3 closes the opening 6.
As illustrated in fig. 6, curved surfaces that are smoothly curved are formed at lower portions of both end portions of the base member 32 in the left-right direction so as to correspond to the curved surfaces of the cover support portions 10.
As described above, the cover 3 provided in the washing machine 1 has a so-called double-fold or folding cover structure including two independent components, i.e., the base-end-side cover component 21 and the front-end-side cover component 31. Thus, in the closed state in which the cover 3 closes the opening 6, as illustrated in fig. 1 and the like, the base-end-side cover constituting portion 21 and the tip-end-side cover constituting portion 31 are in a coplanar plate state, and the opening 6 is closed in this state. On the other hand, in the open state in which the opening 6 is opened in the cover 3, as illustrated in fig. 2, the base-end-side-cover constituting portion 21 is in a state of rising substantially in the vertical direction at the rear portion of the opening 6, and the distal-end-side-cover constituting portion 31 is in a state of being folded downward from the upper end of the base-end-side-cover constituting portion 21. That is, the base member 22 of the base-end-side cover constituting portion 21 and the base member 32 of the distal-end-side cover constituting portion 31 face each other in the front-rear direction of the cover 3.
In addition, according to the washing machine 1, in the closed state in which the cover 3 closes the opening 6, the upper surface of the glass surface piece 23 of the base-end cover constituting portion 21 and the upper surface of the glass surface piece 33 of the front-end cover constituting portion 31 are arranged on the same plane. In addition, according to the washing machine 1, in the closed state in which the cover 3 closes the opening 6, the upper surface of the glass surface piece 23 of the base-end cover constituting portion 21, the upper surface of the glass surface piece 33 of the front-end cover constituting portion 31, and the upper surface of the glass surface piece 11a of the operation panel 11 are arranged on the same plane.
As illustrated in fig. 7, the base-end-side cover forming portion 21 includes a wall portion 24a at an outer edge portion of the decorative member 24 so as to correspond to an end portion of the glass surface member 23. In this case, as illustrated in fig. 3, the wall portions 24a are provided at positions corresponding to both left and right ends and a rear end of the glass surface piece 23 in a closed state in which the opening 6 is closed by the cover 3. Thus, the base-end-side cover forming portion 21 has an outer appearance in which the end portions, in this case, the left and right ends and the rear end are decorated.
As illustrated in fig. 7, the front-end-side cover constituting part 31 includes a wall portion 34a at an outer edge portion of the decorative member 34 so as to correspond to an end portion of the glass surface member 33. In this case, as illustrated in fig. 3, the wall portions 34a are provided at positions corresponding to both left and right ends and a front end of the glass surface piece 33 in a closed state in which the opening 6 is closed by the cover 3. Thus, the front end side cover constituting part 31 has an appearance in which the end parts, in this case, the left and right ends and the front end are decorated.
As illustrated in fig. 3, in the closed state in which the lid 3 closes the opening 6, the following state is achieved: the outer edge portions of the base-end cover constituting portion 21 and the front-end cover constituting portion 31 which are coplanar are surrounded by a substantially rectangular frame-like garnish constituted by the wall portion 24a of the garnish 24 and the wall portion 34a of the garnish 34. That is, the entire outer edge portion of the lid 3 in the closed state has a decorative appearance by plating.
In the closed state in which the lid 3 closes the opening 6, the following state is achieved: the wall portions 24a of the decorative member 24 along the left and right end portions of the glass surface member 23 of the base-end-side cover constituting portion 21, the wall portions 34a of the decorative member 34 along the left and right end portions of the glass surface member 33 of the front-end-side cover constituting portion 31, and the frame portions along the left and right end portions of the glass surface member 11a of the operation panel 11 are arranged on the same straight line L. That is, the appearance of the cover 3 in the closed state is decorated by plating linearly along both left and right end portions thereof.
As illustrated in fig. 7, the washing machine 1 is configured as follows in a closed state in which the lid 3 closes the opening 6: the height H1 of the rear end of the glass surface piece 23 of the base-end-cover constituting part 21 is higher than the height H2 of the upper surface of the rear part of the washing machine main body 2, in this case, the part behind the opening 6 and the rotation shaft 8.
