Abstract
Description
この発明は、冷蔵庫のドアハンドルに係り、特に、ハンドルボディーと透明なハンドルカバーとの間に意匠シートを挟んだ冷蔵庫のドアハンドルに関する。 The present invention relates to a refrigerator door handle, and more particularly, to a refrigerator door handle in which a design sheet is sandwiched between a handle body and a transparent handle cover.
従来の冷蔵庫のドアハンドルの構造は、透明なハンドルカバーの裏面に、意匠を印刷された平板状で薄膜の意匠シートが圧着、または適当な隙間を設けて結合され、上記ハンドルカバーがハンドルボディーに結合されている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 The structure of a conventional refrigerator door handle is such that a flat, thin design sheet printed with a design is bonded to the back surface of a transparent handle cover by pressure bonding or an appropriate gap, and the handle cover is attached to the handle body. (For example, refer patent document 1).
従来の冷蔵庫のドアハンドルは、意匠性を備えた薄膜の意匠シートを透明なハンドルカバーの裏面に圧着、または適当な隙間を設けて結合し、ハンドルカバーをハンドルボディーに結合することで形成されている。通常、冷蔵庫のドアハンドルは手を掛けて使用することから長手の部品として成形されるため、これに合せて意匠シートは帯状に成形されるためにそれ自身に強度が無く、ハンドルカバーをハンドルボディーに結合する際に、帯状の意匠シートが変形、及び移動しやすく、意匠面の位置ずれや薄膜にしわが寄る等の問題があった。
また、一つのドアハンドルの構成において意匠シートの厚みが限定されるため意匠シートの素材選定に制約がある欠点があり、また、ユーザーが自由に意匠を変更できない問題があった。
The door handle of a conventional refrigerator is formed by pressing a thin design sheet with design properties on the back surface of a transparent handle cover, or by connecting with an appropriate gap, and connecting the handle cover to the handle body. Yes. Normally, the door handle of a refrigerator is molded as a longitudinal part because it is used with hands, so the design sheet is molded into a strip shape in accordance with this, so there is no strength in itself, and the handle cover is attached to the handle body. When they are bonded to each other, the belt-shaped design sheet is easily deformed and moved, and there are problems such as misalignment of the design surface and wrinkles on the thin film.
Further, since the thickness of the design sheet is limited in the configuration of one door handle, there is a drawback that the selection of the material of the design sheet is limited, and there is a problem that the user cannot freely change the design.
この発明は、上記のよう課題を解決するためになされたもので、第１の目的は帯状に成形された意匠シートが変形、移動することなく意匠性を保ったまま作業ができ、生産作業性に優れ、意匠性の良い冷蔵庫のドアハンドルを得るものである。 The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and a first object is to perform work while maintaining designability without deforming and moving the design sheet formed into a strip shape, thereby improving workability. The door handle of the refrigerator excellent in design and design is obtained.
また、第２の目的は意匠シートの素材を制約することなくユーザー自身によって好みの意匠シートに交換できる冷蔵庫のドアハンドルを得るものである。 The second object is to obtain a refrigerator door handle that can be replaced with a desired design sheet by the user without restricting the material of the design sheet.
この発明に係る冷蔵庫のドアハンドルは、冷蔵庫の扉に取り付けられたハンドルボディーと透明なハンドルカバーとの間に、意匠性を有する意匠シートを挟んだ冷蔵庫のドアハンドルにおいて、前記ハンドルカバーの背面に前記意匠シートがはめ込まれる溝を備えたものである。 The refrigerator door handle according to the present invention is a refrigerator door handle in which a design sheet having design properties is sandwiched between a handle body attached to the refrigerator door and a transparent handle cover, and on the rear surface of the handle cover. The design sheet is provided with a groove into which the design sheet is fitted.
この発明は、ハンドルカバーの背面に意匠シートがはめ込まれる溝を備えたので、意匠シートが変形、移動することなく意匠性を保ったまま組立作業ができ、生産作業性に優れ、意匠性の良いドアハンドルを得ることができる。 Since the present invention is provided with a groove into which the design sheet is fitted on the back surface of the handle cover, the design sheet can be assembled while maintaining the design without being deformed or moved, and the production workability is excellent and the design is good. You can get a door handle.
図１はこの発明の実施の形態における冷蔵庫の正面図、図２は図１における冷蔵庫のドアハンドルの正面図、及び側面図、図３は図２に示すドアハンドルのＡ−Ａ断面図である。
図において、冷蔵庫のドアパネル２にハンドルボディー３は取り付けられ、ハンドルボディー３の前面にハンドルカバー４が取り付けられる。ハンドルカバー４は、透明な樹脂成形品であり、内側に帯状の薄い意匠シート５（例えば０．１〜０．５ｍｍの厚さ）がはめ込まれる溝４ｂが設けられ、両側面の端部にツメ４ｃが設けられている。また、ハンドルボディー３のハンドルカバー４が取り付けられる面にスボンジ状のクッション６（例えば、２ｍｍ位の厚さで、組み付け後の圧縮状態では１ｍｍ位）が糊付け等により固定され、両側面の端部にハンドルカバー４のツメ４ｃに係合するツメ３ａが設けられている。そして、ハンドルカバー４はツメ４ｃがハンドルボディー３のツメ３ａに係止されてハンドルボディー３と結合されてドアハンドル１を形成している。
1 is a front view of a refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view and a side view of the door handle of the refrigerator in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of the door handle shown in FIG. .
In the figure, a handle body 3 is attached to the door panel 2 of the refrigerator, and a handle cover 4 is attached to the front surface of the handle body 3. The handle cover 4 is a transparent resin molded product, and is provided with a groove 4b into which a strip-shaped thin design sheet 5 (for example, a thickness of 0.1 to 0.5 mm) is fitted, and is provided with tabs at both ends. 4c is provided. Also, a swung cushion 6 (for example, about 2 mm thick and about 1 mm in the compressed state after assembly) is fixed to the surface of the handle body 3 to which the handle cover 4 is attached, by gluing or the like. A claw 3a that engages with the claw 4c of the handle cover 4 is provided. The handle cover 4 has a claw 4 c locked to a claw 3 a of the handle body 3 and is coupled to the handle body 3 to form a door handle 1.
次にこの発明の実施の形態を示す冷蔵庫のドアハンドルの組立及び動作について説明する。
まず、ハンドルボディー３のハンドルボディー３の前面側にクッション６を固着し、これをドアパネル２に取り付ける。一方、透明なハンドルカバー４の溝４ｂに帯状の薄膜シートとなっている意匠シート５をはめ込む。溝４ｂは樹脂成形品であるので弾性により意匠シート５が挟みこまれ固定される。このためドアハンドル組立作業において前組しておくことが可能となり、また、意匠シート５が変形、移動することなく意匠性を保ったまま組立作業ができる。次に、意匠シート５を取付けたハンドルカバー４をハンドルボディー３にはめ込むと、ハンドルカバー４はツメ４ｃがハンドルボディー３のツメ３ａに係止されドアハンドル１が形成される。
Next, assembly and operation of the refrigerator door handle showing the embodiment of the present invention will be described.
First, the cushion 6 is fixed to the front surface side of the handle body 3 of the handle body 3 and attached to the door panel 2. On the other hand, the design sheet 5, which is a strip-shaped thin film sheet, is fitted into the groove 4 b of the transparent handle cover 4. Since the groove 4b is a resin molded product, the design sheet 5 is sandwiched and fixed by elasticity. For this reason, it becomes possible to pre-assemble in the door handle assembling work, and the assembling work can be performed while maintaining the design without the design sheet 5 being deformed and moved. Next, when the handle cover 4 to which the design sheet 5 is attached is fitted into the handle body 3, the claw 4c of the handle cover 4 is locked to the claw 3a of the handle body 3, and the door handle 1 is formed.
ドアハンドル１が形成された状態において、意匠シート５はハンドルボディー３に設けられたクッション６の弾力によってハンドルカバー４に密着する。
ハンドルカバー４はツメ４ｃを起こすことによりユーザーの手でハンドルボディー３から取り外しが可能である。
In the state where the door handle 1 is formed, the design sheet 5 is brought into close contact with the handle cover 4 by the elasticity of the cushion 6 provided on the handle body 3.
The handle cover 4 can be detached from the handle body 3 by the user's hand by raising the claw 4c.
以上のように、ハンドルカバー４の背面に意匠シート５がはめ込まれる溝４ｂを備えたので、意匠シート５が変形、移動することなく意匠性を保ったまま組立作業ができ、生産作業性に優れ、コストが低減でき、意匠性の良い冷蔵庫のドアハンドルを得ることができる。 As described above, since the back surface of the handle cover 4 is provided with the groove 4b into which the design sheet 5 is fitted, the assembly work can be performed while maintaining the design without the design sheet 5 being deformed and moved, and the production workability is excellent. Cost can be reduced, and a refrigerator door handle with good design can be obtained.
また、ハンドルボディー３の前面にクッション６を備え、意匠シート５はクッション６により押さえ付けられてハンドルカバ４ーの溝に密着するので、意匠シート５はクッション６の弾力によってハンドルカバー４の溝に密着し、意匠シートの厚みや素材を自由に選ぶことが可能となり、意匠シート５の厚みの制約を緩くすることができる。 Further, a cushion 6 is provided on the front surface of the handle body 3, and the design sheet 5 is pressed by the cushion 6 and is in close contact with the groove of the handle cover 4, so that the design sheet 5 is brought into the groove of the handle cover 4 by the elasticity of the cushion 6. The thickness and material of the design sheet can be freely selected, and the restriction on the thickness of the design sheet 5 can be relaxed.
また、ハンドルボディー３とハンドルカバー４にそれぞれ係合するツメ３ａ、４ａを備え、ハンドルカバー４をハンドルボディー３から取り外して、意匠シート５を交換可能にしたので、ユーザー自身の手によって意匠シート５の形状に合せて包装紙等を加工することによりユーザーの好みの意匠シート５を作成して意匠シート５を取り替えることでドアハンドル１の意匠を変更することができ、ユーザー好みの冷蔵庫に仕立てることができる。
また、ハンドルカバー４はハンドルボディー３の前面側に位置するので、ユーザーが外しやすい。
Also, the handle body 3 and the handle cover 4 are respectively provided with claws 3a and 4a, and the handle cover 4 is removed from the handle body 3 so that the design sheet 5 can be exchanged. The design of the door handle 1 can be changed by creating the design sheet 5 of the user's preference by processing the wrapping paper or the like according to the shape of the product, and replacing the design sheet 5, and tailoring the refrigerator to the user's preference Can do.
Further, since the handle cover 4 is located on the front side of the handle body 3, the user can easily remove it.
