The washing machine front panel device of the present invention has an operating device disposed inside a steel plate outer frame via a support base, and an L-shaped flange provided with a plurality of mounting claws on the outside thereof. In a structure in which a front panel made of a decorative thin metal plate on the periphery is fixed by caulking the claws to a steel plate outer frame of the washing machine, panel reinforcement made of synthetic resin is provided between the front panel and the outer frame. An embodiment of the present invention, which is characterized by interposing a plate, will be described with reference to the drawings. 1st
In the figure and FIG. 2, 1 is the outer frame of the washing machine made of a thin steel plate, 2 is the front panel made of a decorative thin metal plate, 3 is a panel reinforcing plate made of synthetic resin, and 4 is an operating device such as a timer, switch, etc. It is. The operating device 4 is attached to a support stand 5, and the support stand 5 is fixed to the outer frame 1 with screws 6. 7 is a reinforcing process for attaching the support stand 5 to the outer frame 1. The operating shaft 8 of the operating device 4 passes through the support base 5, the outer frame 1, the panel reinforcing plate 3, and the front panel 2. 9 is the through hole, and 10 is a knob for operation.

パターンによつて適当に設定される。 The panel reinforcing plate 3 is made of polyethylene foam having an expansion ratio of about 1.5 to 2.0, and has a plurality of convex portions 15 formed on its surface as shown in FIG. The upper surface of this convex portion 15 is flat, and the overall thickness a is such that when it is fitted into the front panel 2, both surfaces elastically come into close contact with the inner surface of the front panel 2 and the surface of the outer frame 1. Front panel 2 L
The length b is approximately equal to the length b of the mold flange 11.
Note that the shape and arrangement of the convex portions 15 are appropriately set depending on the pattern of the front panel 2.

In conventional washing machines of this type, the front panel 2 is directly caulked and fixed to the outer frame 1, so that the front panel made of a thin metal plate is distorted by caulking, spoiling its aesthetic appearance. Furthermore, if a thick front panel is used to prevent distortion, an unbalance in strength will occur between the front panel and the thin outer frame 1, reducing the reliability of the mechanical strength of the mounting portion.
In contrast, the front panel of the present invention uses a steel plate whose thickness is balanced with that of the outer frame 1, and the panel reinforcing plate 3 is in close contact with the inner surface of the steel plate, so that when it is caulked to the outer frame 1, No distortion occurs.
Therefore, an inexpensive thin metal plate can be used for the front panel, and there is no imbalance in strength between the front panel and the outer frame 1. moreover,
The front panel 2 has an L-shaped flange 11 around it.
Since the thickness can be seen through the front panel, it can provide the same luxury as when a thick metal plate is used, and the front panel can have a luxurious and elegant appearance and be highly reliable.
