Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for washing dishes in a dishwasher having a washing zone, in which the prewashed dishes are treated in the washing zone with a highly concentrated detergent solution. It also relates to a dishwasher for performing the method.
- the term "dishes" is understood to mean all objects to be cleaned in dishwashers, in particular plates, cups, cutlery and the like. In the present context, it is preferably a matter of commercial dishwashers through which the dishes are conveyed.
- DE-OS 37 07 366 describes a method for the mechanical cleaning of tableware, in which the dishes are passed in succession through a prewash zone, a wash zone, a rinse zone and a rinse zone of the dishwasher. In the prewash zone, coarse food residues and the like are removed from the dishes with the help of overflow water from the wash zone.
- the dishes are first sprayed with the highly concentrated detergent solution.
- the latter consists, for example, of water, to which about 100 g of a powdered cleaner are added per liter.
- the detached food residues are removed together with the sprayed-on detergent solution is still washed off in the washing zone with the help of a washing liquor supplied from spray nozzles.
- the wash liquor should consist essentially of overflow water from the downstream clear wash zone.
- the amount of detergent substrate used is reduced in terms of environmental protection compared to the case that the detergent is applied to the dishes together with the washing water, but the consumption is still considerable because of the Detergent film is still rinsed in the washing zone and is conveyed together with the washing water used for rinsing to the prewash zone and from there into the drain.
- a major disadvantage of the known method is that the cleaning solution is sprayed onto the dishes in a fine mist. Since the cleaning agent is highly aggressive, effective seals against the fog in the machine and appropriate filters in its exhaust air system must be provided for safety reasons.
- the invention has for its object to provide a dishwashing process in which the cleaning solution can flow in a highly concentrated form in large excess over the dishes to be cleaned without imposing an unacceptable burden on the wastewater, and in which special safety measures against atomized cleaning agents can be omitted.
- the solution according to the invention for the above-mentioned method in which the dishes in the washing zone are treated with a highly concentrated detergent solution, is that the detergent solution is allowed to flow over the dishes and the detergent solution draining from the dishes is collected separately in the washing zone and in the circuit again on the dishes.
- the overflow water conveyed in countercurrent to the direction of transport of the dishes is directed from the washing and rinsing of the dishes coming from the washing zone past the washing zone to the prewash area.
- Mixing of the highly concentrated cleaning solution still flowing out in the washing zone with washing water is avoided, so that the concentration of the cleaning solution in its circulation cannot be directly impaired by the washing water conveyed in countercurrent.
- a decrease in concentration occurs essentially only in that the dishes come from the prewashing stage into the washing zone with a film of washing water.
- the running cleaning solution is temporarily stored in a stock liquor container which is switched into the circuit. If necessary, this makes it possible or easier to adapt the amount of detergent solution conveyed to the volume of the dishes supplied or the degree of soiling, and to regulate the concentration and amount of the detergent solution in the circuit.
- a concentration measuring electrode can preferably be provided on the stock liquor container for regulating the concentration and a level electrode for regulating the amount of liquid.
- the sensors can switch corresponding pumps, valves or the like to a cleaner tank or a fresh water supply.
- the fresh water supply can end freely above the level in the base liquor container, so that a chemical tube separator (or the like) is not required.
- the cleaning solution should flow in the washing zone almost without pressure with a large excess over the dishes.
- the cleaning solution is therefore preferably applied to the dishes with only a slight excess pressure in the order of magnitude of 0.2-0.5 bar.
- the solution according to the invention for the dishwasher mentioned at the outset for carrying out the aforementioned method is characterized by a collecting trough arranged in the washing zone and receiving the detergent solution draining from the dishes, with a drain to a stock solution container, preferably remaining outside the dishwasher.
- a drip pan within the washing zone directly under the dishes sprinkled with the cleaning solution from different directions, for example from below and above, it is achieved that the cleaning solution flows off again apart from a film adhering to the pre-washed dishes and remains in the circuit according to the invention; the cleaning agent consumption thus remains minimal, despite a large excess of cleaning solution applied.
- the master liquor container enables the concentration and the amount of detergent solution in the circuit to be monitored.
- the cleaner solution is only gradually soiled because it hits pre-washed dishes.
- the rate of soiling is counteracted by the amount of fresh water and concentrate to be replenished in accordance with the removal of detergent solution (in the form of a film on the dishes).
- the master liquor container is arranged outside the machine, the associated sensors and the corresponding electronics can also remain outside.
- the supply lines, in particular for the fresh water, can end freely above the liquid level of the base liquor container.
- a pump is preferably provided for conveying the detergent solution from the stock liquor container to the washing zone, which pump can deliver a relatively large amount of detergent solution, possibly with food residues, at relatively low pressure.
- This not only reduces the expenditure on equipment in the pump area, but also reduces the requirements placed on the sealing of the machine housing, because the cleaning agent is not sprayed or atomized and flowing cleaning agent is easier to screen than a mist.
- nozzles with non-atomizing liquid outlets are used to apply the cleaning solution to the dishes.
- Such nozzles have the further advantage that they cannot clog as easily as nebulization nozzles because of their large passage openings.
- a clearing zone 4 In the dishwasher designated overall by 1, a clearing zone 4, a washing zone 5, a rinsing zone 6 and a rinsing zone 7 follow one another in the transport direction 2 of the dishes 3.
- the resulting overflow water 9 can be used in the rinse zone 6 to rinse off the still adhering dirt and the film of concentrated detergent solution.
- the resulting overflow water 10 can be passed past the washing zone 5 into the clearing zone 4 and used there for pre-washing the dishes 3.
- the dishes 3 are overflowed with highly concentrated cleaning solution 11.
- the cleaning solution 11 should preferably flow onto the dishes 3 in a wide jet from correspondingly large openings of nozzles, in particular also from above and below, and drain or drip in a collecting trough 13 (except for a film remaining on the dishes 3). From the drip pan 13, which is still arranged inside the dishwasher, the cleaning solution 11 is to reach a stock liquor container 15 via a drain line 14. From there, the cleaning solution 11 is to be pumped by means of a motor 16 17 are conveyed back to the nozzles 12 via a riser 18 on a circuit 19 indicated by arrows.
- the drip pan 13 is preferably extended so far in the transport direction 2 that the essential part of the detergent solution 11 applied to the dishes 3 has dripped into the drip pan 13 during a predetermined exposure time and to the end point 20 of the latter.
- a drain pump 21 is also expediently installed in the drain line 14. With a corresponding relative arrangement of the collecting trough 13, the base liquor container 15 and the nozzles 12, the pump 17 can be omitted under certain circumstances.
- the concentration and the amount of the cleaning solution 11 in the circuit 19 are supplemented in a controlled manner.
- a control unit 22 is provided with a connection to a cleaner concentrate container 23 and to a fresh water inlet 24.
- the wiring is carried out in such a way that if the concentration of the cleaning solution 11 is too low - for example determined via a concentration sensor 25 - the control unit 22 of a hose metering pump 26 gives the concentrate container 23 an instruction to pump substance into the main solution container via a line 32.
- an overflow pipe 29 can also be provided in the base liquor container 15. This, for example, with 220 V AC voltage via a feed line 30 supplied control unit 22 can also be used to control and regulate the pump motor 16 (via a line 31).
- the dishes 3 to be washed are overflowed with cleaning solution 11 in the washing zone 5.
- a suitable, highly concentrated cleaning solution preferably consists of water, to which 100 g of a cleaning agent have been added per liter. Powdery cleaners are just as suitable as liquid cleaners.
- the cleaning solution should be so highly concentrated that it can also rinse starch adhering firmly to the dishes 3 in the washing zone 5 and can otherwise only be removed by a so-called basic cleaning.
- the ability to safely remove fats, starches, dyes and protein determines the degree of concentration of the detergent solution and the duration of the exposure time.
