Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for washing dishes in a microprocessor-controlled Dishwasher, with at least one spray arm, which has spray nozzles and is rotatably mounted on an axis in a rectangular washing compartment, the spray arm is fed by a circulation pump via a pipe with rinsing liquid and with a Sensor and evaluation device is coupled.
  • Most domestic dishwashers have a cuboid shape A lower and an upper crockery basket. For that in the baskets To load sorted wash ware with washing liquid, it is common to have at least one on one To arrange the water-bearing axis of the pivoted spray arm in the wash cabinet. On the Spray-shaped spray arms are positioned in such a way that the wash ware is as possible evenly sprayed with rinsing liquid and an optimal cleaning effect is achieved.
  • the rinsing liquid is pumped under pressure through the pipeline water-carrying axis and the channel-shaped spray arm through the spray nozzles into the spray chamber sprayed.
  • the wash ware is arranged in the corner areas often insufficiently cleaned.
  • the local cleaning deficit is due to a insufficient wetting of the dishes in the corner areas of the rectangular wash cabinet. This results from the circular working area of the spray arm, which is not the rectangular one Wash area corresponds.
  • the German patent application DE 198 32 982 A1 improves the cleaning effect in the Corner areas and prevents high water consumption by using a specially trained Spray arm is used. It has two separate hollow channels, each hollow channel at least one spray nozzle and in particular a hollow channel to at least one corner nozzle at the end of the spray arm.
  • the hollow channel to the corner nozzles is designed so that spraying the dishes through the corner nozzle, only in the corner areas of the dishwasher is possible.
  • the solutions presented improve the cleaning effect of the dishes in the corner areas through additional spray arms or modifications to existing spray arms. They are particularly complex and cause high manufacturing and / or manufacturing costs Operation of the dishwasher.
  • the object of the invention is therefore a method for washing dishes in one microprocessor-controlled dishwasher to reveal with which without expensive constructive modifications to the spray system, for example spray nozzle and spray arm, Washware placed in a crockery basket in the corner areas of the washing compartment is also optimal can be cleaned.
  • the object is achieved by a method having the features of the patent claim 1 solved.
  • the method according to the invention can be used alone with the already existing components microprocessor-controlled dishwasher, which has a spray arm detection performed become. It leads to an improved cleaning effect in a cost-effective and simple manner the corners of the dishwasher.
  • a relatively low water consumption proves to be particularly advantageous here an intensive rinsing program in which the pump speed is maintained throughout Program is increased.
  • the spray pressure can be changed very simply by changing the Flow geometry of the waterways to the spray room can be realized.
  • the outlet cross section of the pipeline for example by an electromagnetic valve to reduce the undiminished pump speed briefly whenever the ends of the Place the spray arms on the corner areas of the dishwasher.
  • the dishwasher (1) shown in FIG. 1 has a rectangular washing compartment (2) two crockery baskets (3, 4) arranged one above the other, with above the upper basket (4) a cutlery drawer (5) is arranged.
  • a cutlery drawer (5) is arranged.
  • Under The upper (4) and lower basket (3) can be rotated with a spray arm (7,8) in the square washing container mounted on a water-bearing axis (6a, 6b), a third spray arm (9) on a another axis (6c) rotates above the cutlery drawer (5).
  • the rotatable spray arms (7, 8, 9) are provided with spray nozzles (13) which are arranged in such a way that all the items to be washed in the baskets (3, 4, 5) are from the washing liquid emerging from the nozzles is applied.
  • the spray arms (7 to 9) are driven by a circulation pump (11) supplied with flushing liquid via pipes (10).
  • the circulation pump (11) is Connected via a pipe to the lowest point of the cuboid-shaped wash chamber (2) and sucks in the water collected there via filters known per se and pushes it again through the nozzles (13) of the spray arms (7, 8, 9), with a repulsive force arising from the flushing liquid outlet for rotating the spray arms (7, 8, 9, 9) ) leads.
  • the dishwasher (1) which is shown in a very simplified manner, has the Rotational position of the spray arm (8) a sensor and evaluation device shown in Figure 2 (14).
  • This device (14) consists of at least one actuator and one sensor.
  • the actuator becomes a permanent magnet (PM) at the end of a spray arm (7,8,9), for example at Spray arm (8) placed.
  • a magnetic sensor designed as a sensor is used for spray arm sensing Detector (D) on the machine door (12) arranged in the center.
  • the central arrangement is advantageous because the distance between the circular path on which the magnet (PM) with the Spray arm (8) moves, and the walls of the wash cabinet (2) at this position is minimal, so that the detector (D) receives a clear signal from the magnet (PM).
  • the signal is sent to the microprocessor control ( ⁇ c) of the dishwasher for evaluation directed. This checks the rotation of the spray arm with the signal. Further the microprocessor control ( ⁇ c) monitors the position of the spray arm (8). For this, the Time difference between two signals evaluated. From the time difference and the known Circulation distance of the magnet (PM) is calculated by the microprocessor control ( ⁇ c) Positions where the spray arm ends are in each case with undisturbed spray arm rotation Corner areas (E) of the wash cabinet (2).
  • the position detection can also be carried out with several sensors and / or Actuators are executed.
  • the start of corner areas (E) could be Detectors (D) are marked so that a time measurement between two signals is not necessary is.
  • FIG. 3 shows spray pressure (p) of the rinsing liquid when the spray arm (8) passes through critical corner areas (E) of the wash cabinet (2) in order to achieve an optimal one To achieve cleaning effect. That arranged in baskets (3,4,5) in the corner areas (E) Washware is now hit with increased spray pressure (p), the resulting height of the spray jet is increased and the entire wash ware is wetted with sufficient washing liquid.
  • the spray pressure (p) is advantageously increased from a normal pressure (p 0 ) in corner regions (E) in such a way that it reaches its maximum (p max ) precisely when one end of the spray arm (8 ) points to a corner of the dishwasher (1).
  • An increased spray pressure (p) is important at this position, since here the distance between the corner spray nozzles (13) and the items to be washed arranged in the corners is maximum.
  • the exemplary diagram of the pressure curve (p) according to FIG. 3 shows a very simple one linear pressure profile, which in the corner areas (E) a smooth ascent and descent having.
  • corner areas (E) a smooth ascent and descent having.
  • pressure profiles that maximize pressure Have corner areas (E) to the improved cleaning effect.
  • a pressure curve that is proportional to the respective distance from the spray arm end is also conceivable to the rinsing tank wall.
