Abstract: A laundry appliance door assembly with an integrated user interface is adapted to eliminate any visible mechanical fasteners to create an aesthetically smooth appearance. The door assembly includes an inner door assembly to support an inner window, an intermediate door frame that houses the user interface controller, and an outer door screen with embedded touch film. The inner door assembly carries a hinge with wiring harness assembly and the intermediate door frame is adhesively bonded with the inner door assembly to form an intermediate door assembly. The outer door screen includes a touch film adhesively attached to the screen with a roller apparatus of low durometer. The outer door screen is then adhesively bonded to the intermediate door frame to complete the door assembly. The intermediate door frame is adhesively bonded to the front of the inner door assembly along with a hinge cover and a handle cover adhesively bonded to the back of the inner door assembly hides any visible mechanical fasteners of the door assembly.

Abstract: A laundry appliance door assembly with a wire cover to protect the wire conductor that passes through the door hinge where it has a tendency to get pulled and damaged when the door is in motion. The wire cover includes a wire cover and a wire conduit coaxially connected together allowing the wire cover to rotate relative to the wiring conduit while within alignment of the hinge rotational axis. The wire cover comprises two lateral halves for ease of installation where it is designed to encase the wire conductor that passes through the door hinge.
