向上させることを目的とする。[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a panel device for a washing machine that has an operation panel on the top of the main body with electrical components arranged on the inner surface, so that water does not splash on the electrical components arranged on the inner surface of the operation panel. We improved the waterproof wall installed in the same way,
The purpose is to more reliably enhance the waterproofing effect and improve the insulation performance of washing machines.

複数個設けられた突出部である。 Examples of the present invention will be described below. In Figures 1 to 3, 1 is an operation panel, 2 is a decorative board placed and fixed on the front of the operation panel 1, 3 is a support panel placed and fixed on the upper part of the main body of the washing machine, and 4 is the operation panel 1. Electrical components installed on the inner side, consisting of switches such as time switches, buzzers, etc. 4a shows the charging part. 5 is a charging part 4a of the electrical component 4
This is a waterproof wall that is integrally formed on the inner surface of the operation panel 1 so as to cover it from above, and is inclined downward toward the support panel 3 side. A plurality of protrusions 5a are provided at the lower end of the waterproof wall 5.

壁５の下面を登らず、防水壁５の突出部５ａから
下方に落下し、充電部４ａに水が滴下することは
ない。 In the above configuration, when water is splashed on the decorative board 2 during washing, the water flows inward from the operating panel 1 through the through-holes that must be formed in the operating panel 1 due to the engagement and attachment of the decorative board 2, etc. However, this intruding water is caught by the upper surface of the waterproof wall 5, and further flows down toward the lower end along the upper surface. This flowing water reaches the lower end of the waterproof wall 5. Here, a plurality of protrusions 5a are provided at the lower end of the waterproof wall 5. Due to the presence of the protrusions 5a, the linear shape of the lower end of the waterproof wall 50 is disrupted.
As shown in the figure, the balance of the water flowing over the top of the waterproof wall will be disrupted. Therefore, water does not climb the lower surface of the waterproof wall 5, but falls downward from the protrusion 5a of the waterproof wall 5, and water does not drip onto the charging section 4a.

第４図および第５図は従来の防水壁５′構造に
よる場合を示し防水壁５′はその下端部が直線形

下の恐れが多大であり、絶縁性能面で問題があ
る。 4 and 5 show the case of a conventional waterproof wall 5' structure, and the lower end of the waterproof wall 5' is linear, so that water flowing down along the upper surface of the waterproof wall 5' The water does not fall downward from the lower end of the waterproof wall 5', but on the contrary, due to the surface tension of the water, it climbs the lower surface of the waterproof wall 5' and drips from a position slightly above the lower end of the waterproof wall 5'. For this reason, there is a great risk of dripping onto the charging portion 4a, which poses a problem in terms of insulation performance.

しかるに上記実施例から明らかなように本考案

安全性を確保できる等のすぐれた効果を奏する。 However, as is clear from the above embodiments, according to the present invention, by simply changing the shape of the lower end of the waterproof wall on the inner side of the operation panel, the function as a waterproof wall can be made more reliable, and the insulation performance of the washing machine can be improved. let me,
It has excellent effects such as ensuring safety.
