ABSTRACT:
A control panel assembly for a domestic appliance providing an improved assembly which insures uniform and proper alignment of control instruments mounted therein. The control panel assembly includes a control panel faceplate, a control instrument mounting bracket, and a bracket retainer. The faceplate includes an indexing or positioning notch into which the mounting bracket, which has the control instruments mounted thereto, fits to correctly locate the control instruments relative to openings in the faceplate. The bracket retainer attaches the mounting bracket to the control panel faceplate. The control panel faceplate, with the mounting bracket and bracket retainer mounted thereon, is slidably and removably attached to a trim wrapper and deflector provided by the control panel. The present invention improves upon control panels known in the art which do not index or relate the control instruments or mounting bracket to the faceplate, and which do not allow access to the control instruments from a front of the control panel.
