In order to make the technical problems and the technical solutions adopted by the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the present disclosure will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all of the embodiments. The features of the following embodiments and embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, the embodiment provides a washing machine table panel locking device, comprising a first locking member mounted on the top of the washing machine cabinet 1 and a second locking member mounted on the washing machine table panel 2. The first locking member is engaged with the second locking member. The washing machine table 2 can be referred to as a cover plate disposed on the top of the washing machine case 1. The washing machine table 2 can be made of wood, plastic, metal or other materials. The material can be selected according to the user's demand for weight, cost and other requirements.

The fixed assembly of the washing machine table 2 is achieved by the first locking member installed on the top of the washing machine cabinet 1 and the second locking member mounted on the washing machine table 2, and the structure is simple, and the washing machine is not moved. In the case of disassembly and assembly of the washing machine table.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the first locking member is mounted on the main control plate holder 3 at the top of the washing machine housing 1, and may be an elastic buckle 4, and the second locking member is opposite to the elastic buckle 4. Fitted card slot 5. The first locking member and the second locking member may be configured such that the first locking member is a card slot and the second locking member is an elastic buckle that cooperates with the card slot. When moving or turning the washing machine table 2 toward the main control tray 3 When entering, the elastic buckle 4 is engaged with the card slot 5, and the washing machine table 2 is locked. When the moving or rotating table 2 is pushed away from the main control plate holder 3, the elastic buckle 4 and the card slot 5 are When the detachment, the table top 2 is detached from the washing machine case 1.

Optionally, referring to FIG. 3, the elastic buckle 4 has an axisymmetric structure, and the elastic buckle 4 has a broken line 0 as an axis of symmetry, and the structures on both sides of the axis of symmetry are the same. The elastic buckle 4 includes two limiting portions 41 symmetrically disposed along the axis of symmetry 0 and two guiding portions 42 symmetrically disposed along the axis of symmetry 0. One end of each guiding portion 42 is opposite to the limiting portion on the same side of the axis of symmetry 0. 41 is connected, and each of the guide portions 42 and the stopper portion 41 connected to the guide portion 42 together form an "S"-like structure. Optionally, the limiting portion 41 is a convex structure provided by the protrusion, and the guiding portion 42 is a guiding inclined surface. When the table top 2 is mounted, the guiding portion 42 can serve as a guide, and the limiting portion 41 can be closely attached to the groove wall of the card slot 5, thereby completing the firm assembly of the table top 2.

Alternatively, the limiting portion 41 and the guiding portion 42 may be a unitary structure. When the table top 2 is mounted, as the table top 2 is advanced toward the main control board holder 3, the guiding portion 42 and the limiting portion 41 of the elastic buckle 4 are inserted into the card slot 5, and the limiting portion 41 and the card are engaged. The groove walls of the groove 5 are in close contact, and the mounting and fixing of the table panel 2 is completed.

As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, in order to more conveniently and quickly mount the table top 2, one of the table top 2 and the case 1 is provided with a positioning post 6, and the other side of the table top 2 and the case 1 is provided. A positioning hole 7 that cooperates with the positioning post 6. Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1 , the box body 1 is provided with a plurality of positioning posts 6 made of plastic, and the table top 2 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 7 matched with the positioning posts 6 , and the positioning holes 7 can be A sub-positioning hole 71 and a second sub-positioning hole 72 are formed, wherein the size of the first sub-positioning hole 71 is larger than the size of the second sub-positioning hole 72. During the mounting and fixing of the table top 2, the positioning post 6 passes through the first sub-positioning hole 71 of the positioning hole 7 and is positioned in the second sub-positioning hole 72. Each positioning post 6 on the box 1 is positioned in the corresponding positioning hole 7 of the table top 2, so that the card slot 5 on the table top 2 and the elastic buckle 4 on the main control board holder 3 are aligned. Thereby, the stage panel 2 is accurately mounted.

As shown in FIG. 1, when the side of the table top 2 adjacent to the main control board holder 3 is locked, the side of the table top 2 away from the main control board holder 3 is connected to the case 1 through a hinge 8. Since the frictional resistance of the hinge 8 is small, the user can easily rotate the table top 2 to adjust and accommodate the angle of the table top 2.

Optionally, referring to FIG. 2, the washing machine table panel locking device further comprises a lock assembly mechanism to improve the safety and reliability of the disassembly table panel 2. Wherein, the lock assembly mechanism may include a lock body 9 mounted on the table top 2, a lock hook 10 movable relative to the lock body 9, and an open groove 12 disposed on the reinforcing beam 11 of the box body 1, the lock body 9 having a relative inside The lock cylinder 9 is rotated by a lock cylinder (not shown). The lock cylinder is connected with the lock hook 10. When the key 13 is inserted into the lock cylinder and the lock cylinder is rotated clockwise, the lock cylinder drives the lock hook 10 to rotate from the open slot 12. When the key 13 is inserted into the lock cylinder and the lock cylinder is rotated in the counterclockwise direction, the lock cylinder drives the lock hook 10 into the open slot 12 to close the lock.

Optionally, the free end of the locking hook 10 has a hook portion 101. The reinforcing beam 11 has a baffle 111. The opening slot 12 is disposed at a bottom edge of the baffle 111. The locking hook 10 can move through the opening slot 12 and the hook portion. 101 is the most end stop at the inner wall of the baffle 111 to achieve unlocking or locking. When the key 13 is inserted into the lock cylinder and the lock cylinder is rotated in the positive direction, the lock cylinder drives the lock hook 10 to rotate, and the hook portion 101 is swung out from the open slot 12 to stop at the outer wall of the baffle 111 to complete the unlocking; when the key 13 When the lock cylinder is inserted into the lock cylinder and the lock cylinder is rotated in the counterclockwise direction, the lock cylinder drives the lock hook 10 to rotate, and the hook portion 101 is turned from the open slot 12 to stop at the inner wall of the baffle 111 to complete the lock.

During the actual assembly process, the user places the washing machine table 2 on the washing machine box 1 and moves or rotates the washing machine table 2 with both hands. First, the elastic buckle 4 cooperates with the card slot 5, and the washing machine table 2 is locked. The key cylinder 13 is used to rotate the lock cylinder on the deck 2 to lock the deck 2 to the washing machine reinforcing beam 11, so that the washing machine table 2 can be assembled safely and securely on the washing machine casing 1. When the washing machine table top 2 is disassembled, the lock core is reversed by the key 13, the lock hook 10 is unlocked, and the washing machine table top 2 is moved backwards with both hands, the elastic buckle 4 is separated from the card slot 5, and the table panel 2 is removed by both hands. Check and maintain the washing machine.

Through the setting of the lock assembly mechanism, the safety performance of the washing machine is improved by opening or closing the washing machine table top. For commercial washing machines in public places, people without keys can't open the countertops, which can protect the washing machine and coin-operated structure, and has high safety and reliability.

The embodiment further provides a washing machine comprising the washing machine table panel locking device of any one of the above.
