Since the third door panel 700 slides on the plane parallel to the third opening 206, the third opening 206 can be opened or closed, so that when the third door panel 700 needs to be opened or closed, an acting force can be directly applied to the outer surface of the third door panel 700 (for example, an acting force in the directions of upward, downward, leftward, rightward, etc. is directly applied to the outer surface of the third door panel 700), and the third opening 206 can be opened or closed very conveniently without arranging a handle structure protruding outward or inward on the third door panel 700. Therefore, the surface of the third door panel 700 of the dishwasher 10 may be more flat.

In the present embodiment, the third door panel 700 can slide back and forth in the direction of the inclination of the third opening 206, that is, the third door panel 700 can slide back and forth substantially in the up-down direction of the machine body 200. As such, the third door panel 700 may slide up or down to open the third opening 206. When the dishwasher 10 is placed on a counter top of a cabinet, the third door panel 700 sliding upward to open the third opening 206 may be located above the machine body 200, and the third door panel 700 sliding downward to open the third opening 206 may be located below the counter top of the cabinet, that is, when the third opening 206 is opened, the third door panel 700 occupies a space of a kitchen in an up-down direction, but does not occupy a space of the kitchen in a left-right direction, thereby being more advantageous to improve a space utilization rate of the kitchen.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the third door panel 700 may also slide back and forth along the left and right direction of the machine body 200.

In the present embodiment, the opening width of the third opening 206 in the direction in which the third opening 206 is inclined is 20cm or more. As such, a majority of the dishware 20 within the washing chamber 200a may be accessed through the third opening 206. It is understood that the opening width of the third opening 206 in the direction of the inclination of the third opening 206 is greater than or equal to 30cm, so that more dishes 20 can be accessed through the third opening 206.

In the present embodiment, the opening width of the third opening 206 in the direction in which the third opening 206 is inclined is 50cm or less. An excessively large opening width of the third opening 206 in the direction of inclination of the third opening 206 may result in an excessively large third door panel 700, which is disadvantageous for opening and closing the third door panel 700. Moreover, the opening width of the third opening 206 in the direction in which the third opening 206 is inclined is too large, and the third opening 206 occupies a position of another member, which is disadvantageous for the arrangement of another member. In view of the above, the opening width of the third opening 206 in the direction in which the third opening 206 is inclined is set to 50cm or less.

In this embodiment, the third opening 206 is inclined 30 to 75 from front to back, i.e., α in fig. 1 is 30 to 75. On the premise that the opening width of the third opening 206 is not changed, the angle α of the third opening 206 inclined from the front to the rear is too small or too large, which makes it inconvenient to take and place the dishes 20. When the third door panel 700 is slid back and forth in the direction of inclination of the third opening 206, the angle α at which the third opening 206 is inclined from the front to the rear is too small, and the third door panel 700 requires a large space in the vertical direction of the machine body 200 when opening the third opening 206, and the angle α at which the third opening 206 is inclined from the front to the rear is too large, and the third door panel 700 requires a large space in the front-rear direction of the machine body 200 when opening the third opening 206, on the premise that the opening width of the third opening 206 is not changed. Combining the above factors, the third opening 206 is provided with an angle α of 30-75 ° from the front to the rear.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, the third opening 206 is inclined 45 ° -60 ° from front to back. Therefore, the tableware 20 can be taken and placed more conveniently, and the requirements on the space in the vertical direction and the space in the front-back direction of the machine body 200 are relatively low, so that the tableware is more favorably used in a kitchen with limited space.

In the present embodiment, the front side of the left side plate 220 and the front side of the right side plate 230 of the body 200 are exposed from the third opening 206. The front side of the left side plate 220 and the front side of the right side plate 230 are respectively provided with a sliding groove 207. The slide groove 207 extends in the oblique direction of the third opening 206. The third door panel 700 is provided with a sliding block 702, and one end of the sliding block 702 away from the third door panel 700 is inserted into the sliding groove 207 and can slide in the sliding groove 207. As such, stable sliding of the third door panel 700 is greatly facilitated.

The front side of the left side plate 220 and the front side of the right side plate 230 of the body 200 are both exposed from the third opening 206, that is, the front panel of the body 200 at the third opening 206 is completely absent. In this way, the third opening 206 can have a larger size in the left-right direction, which is more convenient for accessing the tableware 20.

It is understood that in other embodiments, at least one of the front side of the left side plate 220 and the front side of the right side plate 230 of the machine body 200 is not exposed from the third opening 206, in this case, the machine body 200 has a front panel at the third opening 206, and the sliding groove 207 may be opened on the front panel of the machine body 200.

In this embodiment, the third door panel 700 is also rotatable, so that the third door panel 700 is stacked on the outer surface of the machine body 200 in a state that the third door panel 700 is in the state of opening the third opening 206. Thus, when the third door panel 700 is in the state of opening the third opening 206, the requirement of the third door panel 700 for the kitchen space can be effectively reduced.

In the present embodiment, the third door panel 700 is laminated on the top plate 240 of the body 200 in a state where the third door panel 700 is in a state of opening the third opening 206. In this way, the third door panel 700 can be stably in a state of opening the third opening 206. It is understood that, in other embodiments, when the third door panel 700 is capable of sliding back and forth in the left-right direction of the machine body 200, the third door panel 700 may also be stacked on the left side plate 220 or the right side plate 230 of the machine body 200 in a state where the third door panel 700 is in the state of opening the third opening 206.

In the present embodiment, the chute 207 has a right-angled trapezoid shape in a cross section parallel to the left side plate 220. The inner wall of the sliding slot 207 includes an upper bottom surface 2072 and a lower bottom surface 2074 which are arranged in parallel and a right-angle surface 2076 connecting the upper bottom surface 2072 and the lower bottom surface 2074.

The slider 702 is arcuate. When the third door panel 700 is stacked on the top plate 240 of the machine body 200, one end of the sliding block 702 located in the sliding groove 207 abuts against the right-angle surface 2076 and/or the concave side 7022 of the sliding block 702 abuts against the front side of the upper bottom surface 2072. Thus, the position limitation is facilitated, and the third door panel 700 is conveniently and stably positioned in a state of opening the third opening 206.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, one end of the sliding block 702 located in the sliding slot 207 abuts against the right-angled surface 2076, and the concave side 7022 of the sliding block 702 abuts against the front side of the upper bottom surface 2072. Thus, the third door panel 700 is more easily positioned and stably positioned in a state of opening the third opening 206.

When the third opening 206 needs to be opened, the third door panel 700 is first controlled to slide upwards along the inclined direction of the third opening 206, and when the concave side 7022 of the slider 702 abuts against the front side of the upper bottom surface 2072 of the sliding slot 207, the third door panel 700 is controlled to rotate and is stacked on the top plate 240 of the machine body 200, and at this time, one end of the slider 702 located in the sliding slot 207 abuts against the right-angle surface 2076 of the sliding slot 207.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the sliding groove 207 may have a polygonal shape such as a pentagon, a hexagon, etc. or a crescent shape in a cross section parallel to the left side plate 220, which may provide a space for the rotation of the third door panel 700.

In the present embodiment, a sealing groove 208 is formed below the third opening 206. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the upper side of the second door 600 is the lower side of the third opening 206. The seal groove 208 is located on an upper side of the second door panel 600.

The third door panel 700 is provided with a seal block 704 corresponding to the seal groove 208. In a state where the third door panel 700 is closing the third opening 206, the sealing block 704 is inserted into the sealing groove 208. As such, third door panel 700 is highly advantageous in sealing third opening 206. And the third door panel 700 can close the third opening 206 accurately and unmistakably, so that the alignment deviation of the third door panel 700 when closing the third opening 206 is avoided.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the seal groove 208 may be disposed on the third door panel 700 and the seal block 704 may be disposed below the third opening 206.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, a side of the sealing groove 208 adjacent to the washing chamber 200a communicates with the washing chamber 200a, that is, the sealing groove 208 penetrates through an inner wall of the sealing groove 208 adjacent to the side of the washing chamber 200 a. In this manner, it is further facilitated to seal groove 208 to mate with seal block 704.

In some embodiments, the third door panel 700 may also be rotatably connected to the body 200 by a crank hinge. In a state where the third door panel 700 is in a state of opening the third opening 206, the third door panel 700 is stacked on the top plate 240 of the body 200.

In the present embodiment, the height of the body 200 in the up-down direction is greater than the length of the body 200 in the left-right direction, and is greater than the width of the body 200 in the front-rear direction. Therefore, the height space of the kitchen can be well utilized, and the requirement of the machine body 200 on the horizontal space of the kitchen can be reduced on the premise that the volume of the machine body 200 is not changed.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, the height of the body 200 in the up-down direction is greater than the length of the body 200 in the left-right direction, and the length of the body 200 in the left-right direction is greater than the width of the body 200 in the front-rear direction.
