Description

Washing machine

Technical field

The present invention relates to have the washing machine of parts of electric such as water-supply valve and pulsating pump and water filling parts.

Background technology

At present, this washing machine has Fig. 7 and structure shown in Figure 8 usually.Below this structure is described.

As shown in Figures 7 and 8, have the top of the housing 2 of Wash tub 1 that upper body 3 is housed at interior support, the substantial middle of upper body 3 forms clothes inlet 4, covers with covering 5.Water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 and water filling parts 8 are directly installed on the rear portion of upper body 3 respectively by screw 9 or chimeric pawl etc., cover with back side panel 10.

The front portion of upper body 3 forms printed circuit board (PCB) incorporating section 11, covers this printed circuit board (PCB) incorporating section 11 from the top, is provided with the front side plate 13 with button 12, operation with switch etc. is installed with printed circuit board (PCB) 14 at the back side of this front side plate 13.

In this existing washing machine, parts of electric such as water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 and water filling parts 8 etc. are directly installed on the rear portion of upper body 3 respectively by screw 9 or chimeric pawl etc., but the clothes inlet 4 that is formed at upper body 3 is outward appearance portions, especially for a long time at installing component, necessary careful attention during assembling is in order to avoid produce scuffing etc.

Owing to must be formed for installing respectively the shape of parts of electric such as water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 and water filling parts 8 etc. on the upper body 3, so the unusual complexity of upper body 3 shapes.

Also need not develop multiple width and the different washing machine of degree of depth equidimension on an equal basis according to user's requirement or washing capacity.In this case, even parts of electric such as the water-supply valve of interior dress 6 and pulsating pump 7 or water filling parts 8 are identical,, can not fully realize the rationalization of assembling for each parts being directly installed on upper body 3.

And,,, must change inside components even the washing machine of same size also will be for example changes the kind etc. of pulsating pump 7 by having or not of frequency conversion function etc. recently along with the diversified progress of washing machine.In this case, must redesign upper body 3 according to this machine.

Summary of the invention

The invention provides a kind of washing machine, it comprise interior support have Wash tub housing and be installed in the top of housing and have the upper body of clothes inlet in substantial middle, the support unit that is used to install parts of electric and water filling parts is installed on the upper body.

The specific embodiment

Embodiments of the invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings.In addition, give prosign and omit explanation with the part of conventional example same structure.

Embodiment 1

As shown in Figure 1, support unit 15 is installed with parts of electric such as water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 and the water that self-supporting water valve 6 and pulsating pump 7 are supplied with is imported the water filling parts 8 of Wash tub.Upper body 16 has clothes inlet 4 in substantial middle, is installed in the top of housing 2.Support unit 15 is installed on the upper body 16, and by support unit 15 and upper body 16 usefulness Screws 17 is fastening, the structure of dismounting can be easily carried out in formation.

Utilize this structure can reduce the components number that is directly installed on the upper body 16, compare with the situation that parts of electric 6,7 and water filling parts 8 is directly installed on upper body 16, can reduce producing the possibility that scratches when assembling waits significantly, and, the shape of upper body 16 is simplified.

Parts of electric has pulsating pump 7 and water-supply valve 6 at least, by with water-supply valve 6 and integrated to the water filling parts 8 of Wash tub water filling, can constitute the compact package structure.

Embodiment 2

As shown in Figure 2, support unit 15 is same with the foregoing description 1, parts of electric such as water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 is installed and the water that self-supporting water valve 6 and pulsating pump 7 are supplied with is imported the water filling parts 8 of Wash tub, support unit 15 is installed on the upper body 16, simultaneously, also can be installed on the upper body 16 ' different with upper body 16 sizes.Other structures are identical with the foregoing description 1.

Utilize this structure according to washing capacity do not develop the different washing machine of multiple width or degree of depth equidimension on an equal basis the time.As long as the parts of electric and the water filling parts of interior dress are identical, by being installed on the support unit 15 with parts of electric such as water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 with the water filling parts 8 that the water that self-supporting water valve 6 and pulsating pump 7 are supplied with imports Wash tub, and this support unit 15 is installed on the upper body 16 ', just can irrespectively install, can realize the rationalization of assembling with the washing machine size.

Embodiment 3

As shown in Figure 3, support unit 18 is same with the foregoing description 1, parts of electric such as water-supply valve 6, pulsating pump 7 is installed and the water that self-supporting water valve 6 and pulsating pump 7 are supplied with is imported the water filling parts 8 of Wash tub.Upper body 19 has clothes inlet 20 in substantial middle, and with respect to this upper body 19, support unit 18 is installed from downside.That is to say that upper body 19 is provided with screw threads for fastening with boss 21, and is by being located at the rib with hole 22 on the support unit 18, fastening with screw 23.Other structures and above-mentioned

Embodiment 1 is identical.

According to this structure, by support unit 18 being installed on the upper body 19, can save the back side panel that covers from upper body 19 upsides from the below, can offset the parts increase that support unit 18 causes is set.

In addition, the rear lateral portion of upper body 19 also becomes externally mounted part, and when screw threads for fastening was set on upper body 19 with boss 21, the surface might produce shrinkage cavity, thereby but can solve by the model loss of weight of slip boss 21 roots.
