Abstract

Dishwasher for small households, characterized in that a foldable head part with a rotating washing arm can be lowered onto a sink.

Description

SUMMARY

A lid that can be swiveled into the sink and has a rotating, suspended rinse arm underneath in a bellows-like folded, transparent apron is connected to a hot water inlet. If it is lifted after the rinse, the drain plug opens automatically.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In student apartments and single apartments, the kitchen is usually too small to offer space for a dishwasher, even in a small version. As a rule, conversions are not permitted in rented kitchens.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The object of the present invention is therefore to offer the possibility of automatic rinsing even in the smallest of spaces.

STATE OF THE ART

Numerous suggestions for small to miniature dishwashers are known, including table-top units for a few place settings, such as several models by Foshan Tanrui [https://fstanrui.en.alibaba.com], which nevertheless have some installation space, as well as water inlet and outlet, including require the necessary installation, or are associated with great circumstances for a change of the flushing water.

There are also stationary inserts for sinks for bringing in the dishes, as below EP 1 358 836 B1 / US .. and DE 603 15 751 T2 or 603 11 174 T2 and JP 2005 - 137 825 A However, all of which either permanently occupy a sink, or which require a conversion or expansion of the inserts after use and usually do not have rotating wash arms, but rather work with hand jet nozzles - that is, they do not work automatically. Similarly, too JP 2012-192106 A equipped with a hood over the sink. A rinsing arm could be installed in this, but this is not explicitly stated. It is also designed similarly KR 10-2016-0010854 , here, however, the sink is otherwise only to be used with inserts, because to automate the washing process, a propeller is lowered in a recess in the floor, which is supposed to throw the washing water up against the dishes from below.

SOLUTION

The inventive step here consists in providing an existing sink with a sink mechanism that can be folded down on it.

The flushing mechanism consists of a frame and a flushing lid. The frame is attached to the sink and has inlet connections for cold and hot water as well as detergent.

The flushing cover is attached to the frame with an arm attached to a hinged joint and has a rotating flushing arm, a dosing unit for the detergent inlet and a bellows-like apron. Optionally, the dosing unit can be replaced by a Venturi nozzle in the inlets for cold and hot water.

Existing inlets for cold and hot water are integrated, this is done via a multi-way regulator attached to the tap, which feeds the water either regularly into the basin or into the dishwasher. The folding joint is locked in the lowered position via a mechanical flow monitor.

A device for arranging the items to be washed is arranged in the sink. In an extended version, the inlets for cold and hot water have Venturi nozzles, which suck the flushing water that has already been used from the sink and integrate it into the flushing process.

The system optionally has a further spray arm, which is arranged below the device for arranging the items to be washed. A lower bellows may be used here.

The drain of the sink is used for the drainage, the drainage can be open continuously or partially or have a drain plug that can be opened manually.

The drain plug is optionally connected to the frame via a pulling device. As a result, when the flushing device is tilted up, the drain is opened by pulling out the drain plug.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION BASED ON THE DRAWING

1 shows a dishwasher ( 1 ), consisting of left frame ( 2 ), right frame ( 3 ), Flushing grate ( 4a) , Plate holder ( 4b ,) articulated (3c and 4c) mounted, foldable rinsing arm ( 5 ), bellows-like apron ( 17th ) and sink ( 16c) . The frames ( 3a and 4a) are over base ( 2 B , 3b , 2d , 3d) next to and at the bottom of the sink ( 16 ) fixed.

On the rinse arm ( 5 ) is a rotating spray arm ( 6th ), this is via a clear water hose ( 7th ) and a detergent inlet ( 8th ) via the suspension ( 9 ) provided.

The clear water hose ( 7th ) leads to a 2-way valve (10) on the mixer tap ( 13th ).

The detergent inlet ( 8th ) is via a dosing unit ( 11 ) from a detergent bottle ( 12th ) is fed.

On the spray arm ( 6th ) there are water outlet nozzles ( 14th ) and propulsion nozzles ( 15th ).

The sequence ( 16a) has a closure ( 16b) who has a pull rope ( 17th ) with the rinse arm ( 5 ) connected is.
