た構成となっている。An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5. In the washing machine, a top cover 2 having a clothes slot and the like is fixed to the upper side of an outer frame 9 by screws. The top cover 2 has a configuration in which an operation panel 1 with operation buttons etc. is arranged on the front side, a back panel with other electrical parts arranged on the rear side, and a lid 11 is arranged on the top surface of the clothes slot. It becomes.

等が配設されている。On the back side of the operation panel 1, a controller unit 14, which is a printed cover 18 with FFI components attached, is fixed by potting process 17, a switch cover 13, etc. are fixed by fitting with claws, etc., and a panel lid 12 is fixed on the top side of the operation panel 1.
etc. are arranged.
操作パネル1は略箱形形状を成し、長手方向両側面には
、レール状のリブ15と複数個のツメ6を有し、右側面
には、ネジ穴20を有した突出部7を設けている。The operation panel 1 has a substantially box-like shape, and has rail-like ribs 15 and a plurality of claws 6 on both sides in the longitudinal direction, and a protrusion 7 with a screw hole 20 on the right side. ing.
一方、トップカバー2の前面側には、凹形の断面形状を
有する溝16と、複数個の角穴5を溝16に設けている
。On the other hand, on the front side of the top cover 2, a groove 16 having a concave cross-sectional shape and a plurality of square holes 5 are provided in the groove 16.
操作パネル1の組立て方法は、まず、操作パネル1のリ
ブ15とツメ6を、1−ツブカバー2の溝16及び角穴
5に挿着し、右側面より押し付け。To assemble the operation panel 1, first insert the ribs 15 and tabs 6 of the operation panel 1 into the grooves 16 and square holes 5 of the lub cover 2, and press them from the right side.
操作パネル1を左方向にスライドさせる。これにより、
ツメ6の受部22がトップカバー2の切欠き部23と係
合し、上下方向のはずれを防止する。Slide the operation panel 1 to the left. This results in
The receiving part 22 of the claw 6 engages with the notch part 23 of the top cover 2 to prevent it from being removed in the vertical direction.
さらに、操作パネル1の右側面の突出部7がトップカバ
ー2の右側面の凹部21と係合し、ネジ8により、操作
パネル1とトップカバー2を外枠9に固定する。Further, the protrusion 7 on the right side of the operation panel 1 engages with the recess 21 on the right side of the top cover 2, and the operation panel 1 and the top cover 2 are fixed to the outer frame 9 with the screws 8.
一方、操作パネル1のリブ15の端部に設けた立上り部
4は、操作パネル1をスライドさせている間トップカバ

なる。On the other hand, the rising portion 4 provided at the end of the rib 15 of the operation panel 1 rests on the receiving surface 24 of the top cover 2 while the operation panel 1 is being slid.
By molding the top cover 2 with synthetic resin, the top cover 2 is elastically deformed, and at the same time it finishes sliding, the rising part 4 becomes the top cover 2.
It falls into the groove 16 of the groove 16 and engages with the rising portion 3 of the groove 16.
これにより、左方向から操作パネル1をはずす力が加わ
っても、操作パネルの立上り部4とトップカバー2の立
上り部3がストッパーとなり、右側面の突出部7にのみ
無理な力が加わり1割れ等を防止できる。As a result, even if a force is applied from the left to remove the operation panel 1, the rising part 4 of the operating panel and the rising part 3 of the top cover 2 act as a stopper, and the excessive force is applied only to the protruding part 7 on the right side, causing it to crack. etc. can be prevented.
次に操作パネル1をはずす場合は、右側面のネジ8をは

からの洗濯機の侵入を防止できる。In addition, in the assembled state, 116 of the top cover 2
The ribs 15 of the operation panel L are sandwiched between the ribs 15 of the operation panel L, thereby preventing the washing machine from entering from above.
上記実施例は、右側より左方向にスライドさせる方法を
述べたが、左側より右方向にスライドさせることも可能

ップカバー2より立上り部25を設けて嵌合させる方式
をとっても同様な効果を得ることができる。In the above embodiment, a method of sliding from the right side to the left side has been described, but it is also possible to slide from the left side to the right side. Furthermore, the rising portion 3 of the operation panel 1 has the same mechanism by cutting out not only the end but also the middle of the rib 16. Further, the same effect can be obtained by providing a rib on 1j5WI of the operation panel 1 and providing a rising portion 25 from the top cover 2 to fit it.
また、操作パネルの両端近傍には、裏面よりリブ26が

プカバー2外に排水できる。Further, near both ends of the operation panel, ribs 26 are arranged from the back surface, and the top cover 2 is provided with a rib 25 that faces the ribs 26, and a square hole 27 is provided in the bottom of the rib 25. As a result, the ribs 15 of the operation panel 1 cannot be sandwiched between the side surfaces perpendicular to the sliding direction, and even if water enters, the ribs 26 of the opposing operation panel 1
The ribs 25 of the top cover 2 prevent water from entering the controller section, and the water that has entered can be drained out of the top cover 2 through the square holes 27.
