Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a domestic dishwasher machine, with a front loading door, a counterdoor entirely drawn into recess and a detergent measurer/dispenser supported by the upper rack.
  • control and programming devices as well as dispenser devices of detergent and of washing additives, which must be actuated by the user, are all housed in the interspace comprised between a front panel of the loading door and a counterdoor panel which seals closed the washing chamber.
  • Command and programming devices can therefore be accessed either directly on a front instrument panel or on the upper edge of the door, with a limited opening of the door.
  • Dispenser devices of the detergent and of possible additives can be accessed, for the loading thereof, with the complete opening of the door.
  • the drawing operation allows a single recess to be obtained, surrounded by a frame, only in the lower part of the counterdoor, arranging the different components in the interspace thus left in the upper part of the door.
  • This solution does not require a greater vertical size of the machine and allows an optimal exploitation of the volume available. It is also particularly ergonomic.
  • the dishwasher machine according to the present invention is based upon the following considerations and on the design criteria which derive therefrom:
  • the dishwasher machine essentially comprises a washing chamber 1, generally made of stainless steel, housed in an encasement 2 and closed, with a water-tight seal, by a front door 3, hinged to the container in its lower part.
  • the encasement and the door are sized so as to be able to be housed built-in under a work surface 4, with the front door 3 masked by a panel 5.
  • the front loading door consists of a flat front panel 6 and of a stainless steel counterdoor 7, conveniently drawn to form a recess surrounded by a raised frame 8 which engages to form a seal with a gasket 9, mounted near to the edge of the washing chamber.
  • the interspace 10 between front panel and counterdoor, is used to house the control devices which are accessible, in the models foreseen for built-in installation, from the upper edge of the door, when the door is at least partially open.
  • the measuring and dispensing devices for the detergent and the additives are also housed in the interspace.
  • the counterdoor panel can be drawn into recess in just the lower part and not also in the upper part, as illustrated.
  • the measuring/dispensing device is divided in two distinct components: a detergent measuring/dispensing device, with an extremely simple structure (essentially it involves a sliding drawer, with two compartments in line, housed in a dead zone of the washing chamber and supported by the upper rack with which the dishwasher machine is usually provided) and, separate from this, an additive measurer/dispenser 13, with the relative reservoir 12, housed in the interspace between one of the side walls of the washing chamber and the corresponding outer wall of the dishwasher machine.
  • a detergent measuring/dispensing device with an extremely simple structure (essentially it involves a sliding drawer, with two compartments in line, housed in a dead zone of the washing chamber and supported by the upper rack with which the dishwasher machine is usually provided) and, separate from this, an additive measurer/dispenser 13, with the relative reservoir 12, housed in the interspace between one of the side walls of the washing chamber and the corresponding outer wall of the dishwasher machine.
  • FIG 2 where, in a front view, a portion of the upper rack 16 is shown which is generally intended, and for this purpose designed, to house a set of dishes 17, arranged vertically one behind the other, suitably distanced.
  • a sprayer 19 is rotatably mounted, with opposing horizontal arms, which receives, in a known manner, through a horizontal manifold 21 (figure 1) the jet of liquid detergent coming out of one or the other of the two nozzles 22A, 22B arranged, as shown in figure 1, on the rear wall of the washing chamber, at a different height, mutually closed and opened, in a known manner, according to the vertical position of the upper rack which, as is known, can be installed by the user, according to requirements, in one or the other of the two vertical positions.
  • a horizontal manifold 21 figure 1
  • the dead zone 24 can also comprise the volume of the washing chamber, arranged below the rack, outside and peripheral with respect to the cylindrical volume occupied by the rotor 19 during the course of its rotation.
  • figures 3, 4 and 5 represent in detail the structure of a preferred embodiment of a detergent measurer, respectively in a central vertical section view, with the draw in the extracted loading position, in a transversal section view according to view I-I of figure 3 and in a central vertical section view, with the draw in work position.
  • the measurer consists of a prismatic tubular container 25, equipped on the outside with attachment means (not illustrated), such as U-bolts and the like, at the metallic lattice which forms the rack 16 and which is conveniently shaped to form a sort of housing for the container 25.
  • a draw 26 with two compartments in line, 27, 28, open at the top.
  • the draw 26, at its inner end, is equipped with an elastic tab 29, with an end stop tooth 30, capable of sliding in a lower slot 31 of the container 25.
  • the elasticity of the tab 29 allows, if desired, the disengagement of the tooth and the complete withdrawal of the draw 26 from the container 25, for the replacement thereof with a draw of a different type, as shall be seen later on.
  • the work position of the draw 26, represented in figure 5, is defined by the interference with a nozzle 33, for spraying and withdrawing detergent, integral with the container 25 and whose end inserts into an opening 34 which is conical and/or has support shoulders, made in the most inner wall 35 of the compartment 28.
  • the compartment 28 is entirely closed in the container 25 and it is protected by this against the infiltration of sprays and of liquid.
  • the compartment 27 is at least partially open.
  • the liquid which accumulates in the compartment 27 dissolves the detergent (in granules, powder or tablets) contained in the compartment or mixes with the possible liquid detergent, and overflowing causes its withdrawal.
  • the drawer 26 is designed for the use of solid detergent and both the compartment 27 and the compartment 28 are equipped with at least one discharge opening 36, 37 respectively, arranged near to the base of the compartments, through which the liquid spray, enriched with detergent, even only partly dissolved, can flow into the washing chamber.
  • the withdrawal of the detergent contained in the compartment 28 (washing detergent) protected from sprays, is carried out with a flow of liquid sent into the compartment through the nozzle 33 and is only activated in a predetermined (washing) step of the wash cycle and possibly in steps following this one.
  • the nozzle 33 is connected to a manifold 38 (figure 1) arranged parallel to the manifold 21, separated from this and fed independently or else, alternatively, to a manifold 39 (figure 2) which extends up to a side of the washing chamber to receive the spray jet coming out of one of the two nozzles 40, 41, arranged at different heights, on the side of the washing chamber, corresponding to the two different installation positions of the rack and activated simultaneously in a predetermined step of the wash cycle.
  • a manifold 38 (figure 1) arranged parallel to the manifold 21, separated from this and fed independently or else, alternatively, to a manifold 39 (figure 2) which extends up to a side of the washing chamber to receive the spray jet coming out of one of the two nozzles 40, 41, arranged at different heights, on the side of the washing chamber, corresponding to the two different installation positions of the rack and activated simultaneously in a predetermined step of the wash cycle.
  • Figure 6 represents, in a vertical central section view, a draw designed for the use of liquid detergent which differs from the previous one in that the discharge openings 36, 37 are not included and are replaced by two inverted siphons 38, 39.
  • the base of the two compartments is slightly raised, to ensure a good draft of the siphons, with an outlet arm which extends beyond the base.
  • a vertical diaphragm 40 separates the compartment 28 from the wall 35 in which there is the opening 34 for coupling with the nozzle 33 and prevents the escape of liquid detergent from the opening 34, whatever the vertical position of said opening.
  • the draw can be adapted to receive both solid and liquid detergent also in combination, according to whether or not auxiliary containers, also by choice, are present.
  • Figures 7, 8 and 9 respectively represent, in a front partial section view, in a composite vertical section view, according to the view II-II of figure 7, and in a view from above, a preferred embodiment of a measuring/dispensing device for rinse aid additives, already shown schematically in figures 1 and 2 (where it is specified by reference numerals 12,13), to be housed in the interspace between one side of the washing chamber and the corresponding outer wall of the encasement.
  • the device essentially comprises a reservoir 41, preferably obtained by the welding of two plastic shells 42, 43 which also form a small discharge chamber 44, in communication with the inside of the reservoir 41 through an opening 45 which can be shut.
  • the reservoir 41 is equipped with an inlet pipe coupling 46, formed integral with the shell 43 and threaded externally, which inserts into an opening of the side 47 of the washing chamber, upon the insertion of a gasket 48.
  • a threaded locking ring 49 screwed onto the pipe coupling 46, locks sealed the reservoir 41 against the side 47.
  • an elbow pipe coupling 50 equipped with a removable closing cap 51 of the screw or bayonet type.
  • the inclination of the rotational axis of the pipe coupling 50, relative to the plane of the side 47, ensures that the pipe coupling is arranged flush with the wall of the washing chamber which can be equipped, by drawing, with a suitable recess (54 in figure 9) for at least partially housing the pipe coupling, so that it occupies a minimum volume of the washing chamber and does not interfere with the crockery housed here.
  • the pin shutter device can be replaced in a known manner by a volumetric piston pump.
  • the discharge chamber 44 is equipped with a pipe coupling 57 which inserts, upon the insertion onto the pipe coupling of a gasket 58, into an aperture of the wall 47.
  • a ring nut 59 screwed onto the pipe coupling, ensures the seal between pipe coupling and wall and constitutes a further anchoring of the reservoir to the wall.
  • said discharge chamber 44 can conveniently be equipped with a bayonet type cap 60 with a small peripheral port for the discharge of the additives in the washing chamber.
  • the discharge chamber 44 can carry out the function of volumetric measuring chamber.
  • control and programming devices essentially consist of one or two electronic boards which also function as a support for control buttons and visualisation devices, normally of the LED type.
  • control buttons and the visualisation devices are identified by the reference numeral 61.
  • control devices can be wholly or partly arranged in the interspace between the top of the washing chamber and the corresponding upper wall of the encasement.
  • the controls are easily accessible even only with a limited opening of the loading door, as already takes place in machines foreseen for built-in and fold-away installation.
  • the safety microswitch usually mounted in the loading door, can be moved into the body of the machine, so as to free the loading door from any device which requires an electrical supply.
  • figure 10 is an overall view of the hydraulic diagram of a dishwasher machine of the prior art.
  • the machine is fed from the water mains 91 through an electrovalve 62.
  • the flow of water passes through an anti-backflow device 63 (which prevents a reverse sucking flow in the case of a drop into depression of the water mains) and is conveyed by tubing 64 to a resin decalcifier 65.
  • the supply flow also feeds a container 66 for storing regeneration water, equipped with a discharge 67 for releasing the excess water, opening onto the washing chamber.
  • the decalcified flow leaving the decalcifier is let into the washing chamber 68, crossing a filter 72 in countercurrent with respect to the circulation flow, considered later on.
  • the discharge pipe 80 from the decalcifier to the washing chamber, is split into two pipes 80 and 81, respectively controlled by two electrovalves 76, 69 to avoid the washing liquid crossing the filter 72. This is crossed in countercurrent, as shall be seen later on, only by regeneration water of the decalcifier.
  • a pressure switch interrupts the flow which fills the washing chamber, closing the electrovalve 62 for a predetermined filling level of the washing chamber.
  • the washing or rinsing water contained in the chamber passes through a filter 72, is made to circulate by a circulation pump 70 and feeds the spraying rotors (usually two), housed in the washing chamber, one of which is represented in figure 10 and is identified by the reference numeral 71.
  • the washing/rinsing liquid is discharged by a discharge pump 73 and the washing/rinsing water in the chamber is reintegrated to carry out the subsequent step with the opening of the electrovalve 62 and of the electrovalve 69, if present.
  • the wash cycle is completed by a regeneration step of the decalcifying resin: the hard water contained in the container 66 is discharged, by activating an electrovalve 74, into a reservoir of regeneration salts 75, communicating with the decalcifier 65 and conveyed into the filter 72 with the activation of the electrovalve 76, if present.
  • Figure 11 represents the hydraulic diagram of the dishwasher machine of the present invention which allows these aims to be realised and at the same time takes care of the withdrawal of the detergent in the appropriate step.
  • the difference consists of the fact that the electrovalve 76 is necessarily present and the decalcified water coming out of the decalcifier 65, instead of being discharged directly into the washing chamber, feeds the compartment 28 for the washing detergent through a pipe 81, the electrovalve 69 and the manifold 38, already shown in figure 1 (or the equivalent manifold 39 of figure 2).
  • a wash cycle comprises, essentially in order, the cold prewash, cold rinse, hot wash, 1st cold rinse, 2nd hot rinse with drying of the crockery and regeneration steps:
  • the prewash liquid is discharged by the pump 73.
  • the electrovalve 62 is again opened and together with this also the electrovalve 69 is made to open.
  • the decalcified water before discharging into the chamber, withdraws the detergent from the compartment 28. Then it is heated, made to circulate and finally discharged.
  • the opening of the only electrovalve 62 determines the loading of hard rinsing water coming from the container 66, which is then discharged.
  • the electrovalves 74 and 76 are opened jointly and, simultaneously or successively, the discharge pump is activated: the hard water contained in the container 66 passing into the reservoir 75 and into the decalcifier 65, takes care of the regeneration of the resins and at the same time of the washing in countercurrent of the filter 72.
  • the feeding of the washing chamber with hard water instead of coming out of the container 66, can be obtained in a faster manner (the partialisation hole of the anti-backflow device substantially limits the flow rate) with an electrovalve 77, connected to the water mains, which allows entry directly into the washing chamber above the maximum filling level of the washing chamber.
  • the anti-backflow device is not necessary: it is the washing chamber which carries out this function.
  • a switch valve 78 arranged on the pipe 64, which sends the hard water to the decalcifier or directly into the washing chamber.
  • the same function of the switch valve can be carried out by two distinct electrovalves, commanded to open alternately.
  • the reservoir 75 for the regeneration salts can be at least partly housed in the interspace between the side wall of the washing chamber, opposite the one which the additive measurer/dispenser faces, and the corresponding outer wall.
  • the reservoir for the regeneration salts can be equipped with a loading pipe coupling which is similar or identical to that of the reservoir for the additives.
  • Figure 12 schematically represents a front partial section view of the body of a dishwasher machine which advantageously incorporates all of the aspects indicated above.
  • the measuring/dispensing device 15 is arranged in the washing chamber and is supported by the upper rack 16, so as to be easily accessible.
  • the reservoir 12 for the rinse aid additives, with the relative measurer, is housed in the interspace between a side of the washing chamber and the corresponding outer wall of the encasement.
  • the loading pipe coupling 50 of the reservoir 12 opens on one side of the washing chamber, in an easily accessible position.
  • the reservoir 75 for containing the regeneration salts, already having a per se reduced size, together with that of the decalcifier 65, for the selective use of decalcified water and the consequent reduction in the decalcification and regeneration operations, is equipped with a pipe 85, which constitutes an upward extension thereof with the consequent increase in the volumetric capacity, housed in the interspace between the other side of the washing chamber (opposite the one in which the pipe coupling 50 opens) and the corresponding outer wall.
  • the pipe 85 opens into the washing chamber with a loading pipe coupling 86, similar to the pipe coupling 50 and easily accessible from the front of the machine, with the loading door open.
  • the pipe 85 itself, to a large extent, constitutes a container of regeneration salts which allows a reduction in the size of the reservoir 75, arranged below the washing chamber and, unlike that which is foreseen in the prior art, without a loading pipe coupling arranged on the base of the washing chamber, which involves, as is known, a certain vertical size and a constructive limitation, since it must not interfere with the lower rotor.
  • the smaller size of the reservoir 75 and the absence of a loading pipe coupling on the base of the washing chamber allow the base of the washing chamber, as well as the lower spraying rotor 82, the protective filter grill 83, the heating resistance 84 and the lower rack 87 to be lowered to the great advantage of the useful volume of the washing chamber.
  • the base of the washing chamber can be lowered with an increase in the useful volume of the washing chamber in its lower part.
  • the different devices which require a manual intervention are more easily accessible, since they are equipped with loading openings arranged substantially half way up (40-50 cm from the floor) the body of the machine, unlike that which takes place in the dishwasher machines of the prior art.
