Definitions

  • the present invention relates to dishwashers, and in particular to a dishwasher provided with an additional washing tank.
  • a conventional dishwasher includes a single washing tank wherein two racks are arranged one on top of the other, each of them being sprinkled by a corresponding sprinkler fed through a relevant duct coming from the washing pump.
  • the dishes are placed in said racks, whereas the cutlery is vertically placed in a suitable cutlery basket which is usually located in the lower rack.
  • the cutlery can be horizontally placed on an extractable tray arranged above or below the racks or therebetween, as disclosed for example in EP-0186157.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a dishwasher which overcomes the above-mentioned drawbacks.
  • a first fundamental advantage of the present dishwasher is the greater flexibility of use resulting from having the washing tank substantially divided into two independent and yet connected tanks, as it will be made clear further on.
  • the user can choose among using only the main tank, only the additional tank or both of them and possibly with different length and/or strength of the cycle.
  • a second advantage of this dishwasher is its greater capacity of power saving. As a matter of fact, in this way when the user decides to limit the washing to one tank only it will not be necessary to heat also the walls and air of the other tank.
  • a dishwasher according to the invention is different from conventional dishwashers due to the presence of an upper tank A and a lower tank M separated therefrom by a partition wall E in which at least one drain hole F is formed.
  • Three feed ducts C1, C2, C3 branch out from the washing pump and provide the feeding to as many sprinklers S1, S2, S3 respectively arranged under the lower rack, under the upper rack and above the cutlery tray G.
  • the flow of water in ducts C1, C2, C3 is controlled by respective valves V1, V2, V3 which allow an independent control of each one of sprinklers S1, S2, S3.
  • the operation of the present dishwasher is thus more flexible with respect to a conventional machine, even if from a technical point of view it does not require major changes in that the additional members (C3, V3, S3) are absolutely similar to the existing ones.
  • the drain hole F allows the water fed to tank A to flow down into the underlying tank M and then into the collecting chamber, where it is filtered and returned to the washing pump.
  • the upper tank A may even be made bigger than the lower tank M, for example by arranging the partition wall E between the lower and upper racks so that the upper tank A includes the two sprinklers S2, S3 and the lower tank M only sprinkler S1.
  • the arrangement and/or size of the tanks it is possible to use two doors, a door and a drawer or a single door.
  • the number, type and arrangement of the sprinklers may change as long as each tank is provided with at least one sprinkler.
