Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dishwasher provided with a venting device.
  • this opening or this venting hole lets out the sounds of water jets or liquid from spinning reels, liquid shocks on the dishes, liquid fallout on the bottom of tank ... i.e. all airborne noise emitted inside the tank. For this reason, a large number of known dishwashers have an acoustic weakness and insufficient durability.
  • Document CH-A-472 208 discloses a dishwasher with a two-way venting device opening onto the front face of its door, which has drawbacks for the user.
  • the present invention aiming to avoid these drawbacks, makes it possible to produce a solid, silent dishwasher provided with an air venting device which practically does not reject moisture or vapor from the environment. washing liquid and operating noises.
  • a dishwasher provided in a wall of the tank with a venting device with two parallel outlet channels is characterized in that the venting device comprises a channel slow outlet with high pressure drop for permanently open fluid flow (air and liquid vapor), and a fast outlet channel with low pressure drop for normally closed fluid flow, which can be opened by the action of a predetermined thrust of the air leaving the tank, these two channels opening into the space between the tank and the dishwasher body .
  • a dishwasher 1 according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention, illustrated in FIG. 1, comprises a tank 2 and a body 3 which includes a front door 4, a control panel 6 and a top wall constituted by a plane work 7.
  • a lower dish basket 10 In the tank 2 with front opening are mounted a lower dish basket 10, an upper dish basket 11, a lower watering reel 12 and an upper watering reel 13.
  • an air vent device 17 which is in communication with the interior of the tank 2, through a vent opening 20 formed in the wall of this tank 2.
  • a dishwasher comprises a venting device comprising two parallel outlet channels, a slow outlet channel or outlet with high pressure drop for flow of fluid (air and liquid vapor) permanently. open and a rapid outlet or outlet with low pressure drop for fluid flow normally closed but capable of being opened by the action of a predetermined thrust of air and liquid vapor leaving the tank of this dishwasher.
  • the slow, permanently open exit path is provided, on its way, with a device for condensing moisture and liquid vapor and / or for damping noise or sound waves.
  • the rapid exit path is normally closed by a pivoting flap which is capable of being opened by the action of a predetermined thrust of the air and of the vapor of liquid leaving the tank of the dishwasher.
  • the pivoting shutter closing the rapid exit path is constantly returned to its closed position either by its own weight or by an elastic device.
  • the position of the pivot axis of the flap and the movement of this flap are predetermined so that in normal heating progress of the liquid in the tank, the gas overpressure generated is evacuated only by the slow outlet channel and that in the event of abnormal gas overpressure, most of the gases (air and vapor of liquid) in overpressure are evacuated by the rapid outlet channel with the least pressure drop when they flow.
  • there is a pre-established gas pressure threshold for lifting the shutter which is higher than that required to close it.
  • the dishwasher 1 comprises a venting device 17 comprising for the flow of air and liquid vapor and the progression of the sound waves exiting from the tank 2, two parallel outlet channels 22, 23 opening into the space 15 available between the tank 2 and the bodywork 3, and a channel common inlet 25 connected to the venting opening 20 of this tank 2.
  • the venting device has two separate inlet channels connected by one of their ends to corresponding venting openings by two parallel outlet channels, one slow exit lane and one fast exit lane.
  • the rapid exit channel 22 is closed by a pivoting flap 27 which is constantly returned to its closed position (FIG. 2) and able to be opened by the action of a predetermined thrust of air and liquid vapor from the inside to the outside ( Figure 3) corresponding to a pre-established threshold for lifting gas pressure from this flap which is reached or exceeded inside the tank.
  • the pivoting flap 27 is constantly returned to its closed position by its own weight.
  • the pivoting flap 27 is provided with an elastic device of a known type such as a spring, a torsion bar, a rubber mechanism which returns it to its closed position.
  • the slow exit path 23 comprises on its path a device for damping noise or sound waves and / or condensing moisture and liquid vapor 28, constituted for example by a block of synthetic foam with open cells or intertwined synthetic fibers or equivalent known material.
  • the venting device 17 can comprise, in the common channel 25, flow guides, not shown, for air and liquid vapor, upstream from the quick outlet 22 and slow 23 outlet channels.
  • the volume of air enclosed in the tank 2 expands.
  • the volume of expanding air tends to act on the mass of liquid in this tank 2, to cause it to overflow by the opening thereof and make it leak at the lower part, in particular of the door seal 4.
  • the expanding air and the vapor of the heated washing liquid which gradually escape from the tank 2 through the vent opening 20 enter the vent device 17 , take the slow exit path 23, since the rapid exit path 22 is closed by the flap 22, and finally pass through the device for condensing moisture and liquid vapor and / or damping noise 28 constituted by a block of synthetic foam which retains the humidity of the air and the vapor of liquid and lets practically pass only the desaturated air.
  • the noises or sound waves generated by the jets of water or liquid from the spinning reels, by the shocks of liquid on the dishes, by the fall of liquid on the bottom of the tank 2 and all other aerial noises inside this tank 2, are damped, smothered by the block of synthetic foam constituting the device for condensing moisture and liquid vapor and / or damping noise 28 and isolated from the outside by the flap 27 then closed.
  • the dishwasher 1 is silent in its operation and only lets out into the ambient environment the desaturated air which is practically harmless to the body 3 and the other mechanical and electrical organs and accessories of the appliance.
  • the venting device 17 is shown attached to a liquid distributor 35 of a known type which distributes liquid supplying different parts of the dishwasher 1.
  • This known liquid distributor 35 which is not part of the present invention is not described in detail.
  • the venting device 17 can also be a device independent of a liquid distributor 35 or another member of the dishwasher 1.
