Abstract: A door for a home appliance includes a door body that is disposed in front of a storage space of the home appliance and accommodates an electronic component therein. A connector module is disposed in the door body. The connector module includes a mounting base disposed in the door body and a movement supporter fixing a door connector. The movement supporter linearly moves between a storage position and an operation position along the mounting base. The movement supporter is relatively turned to the mounting base at the operation position. When the door connector is turned, the door connector is exposed outward. When the door connector is turned, an assembly surface thereof at which assembling with a relative connector is performed faces the front side of the door, so assembly/separation of the connectors is easily performed.

Abstract: A door for an appliance includes a door body, a connector module, and a door wire. The door body is configured to be disposed at a front of a storage space of the appliance and accommodates an electronic component. The connector module is disposed at the door body and includes a door connector. The door wire electrically connects the door connector to the electronic component. The door body includes a connector storage portion. The connector storage portion defines a connector inlet that is opened outward from the door body. The door connector is configured to move between (i) a storage position corresponding to the door connector being positioned in the connector storage position and (ii) an operation position corresponding to the door connector being positioned at the connector inlet.
