Description
- The present invention relates to a pump that is used in a dishwasher or other machines handling liquid. Particularly, the present invention relates to a pump that has one inlet and two outlets communicating a pump chamber, and delivers fluid from one of the two outlets in accordance with a rotation direction of an impeller that is placed in the pump chamber.
- Usually, a pump that is used in a dishwasher is required to have a function of supplying washing water into a dishwashing bath and a function of draining waste water after dishwashing. Conventionally, there is a dishwasher having one pump that has the two functions, in which a pump motor is switched between forward rotation and reverse rotation, so that a transportation path of fluid using the pump is switched between a washing water supplying pipe and a waste water draining pipe.
- This type of pump is disclosed in Japanese unexamined patent publication No. 10-43121, as shown in Fig. 7, for example. This pump has two
outlets pump casing 101 that houses animpeller 103 that is rotated by amotor 105. The pump also has oneinlet 106 that is common to the two outlets. The pump further has aswitching valve device 115 for opening and closing one of the washing water outlet and the waste water outlet selectively. Thisswitching valve device 115 includes aslidable valve plate 104 that closes the waste water outlet when opening the washing water outlet, while opens the waste water outlet when closing the washing water outlet. This valve plate is provided with a forward flowpressure receiving surface 119 for receiving water flow when the motor rotates forwardly and a reverse flowpressure receiving surface 121 for receiving water flow when the motor rotates reversely. When the motor rotates forwardly, the forward flowpressure receiving surface 119 of thevalve plate 104 is pressed by water flow from the impeller so that the valve plate slides. Then, one of the washing water outlet and the waste water outlet is closed while the other is opened. When the motor rotates reversely, the action opposite to the above-explained action is performed. - However, in the above-mentioned structure in which a sliding valve element is provided with the forward flow
pressure receiving surface 119 and the reverse flowpressure receiving surface 121, when operating the switch valve device inside the pump in accordance with the forward rotation or the reverse operation of the motor so that the open/close states of two outlets are switched, the position of the pressure receiving surface moves in the stage where the valve element is moved to slide by the water flow. Therefore, the pressure that the pressure receiving surface receives from water flow is continuously changing. For this reason, the sliding movement of the valve element may be unstable, malfunction of the switching operation may occur easily, and switching of two outlets may not be performed smoothly. In addition, the switching may be performed insufficiently, the two outlets may open insufficiently, and both the outlets may deliver water. Furthermore, the structure of theswitch valve device 115 may be complicated, which may cause increase of cost. - This type of pump is also disclosed in German unexamined patent DE 197.45 737 A1, wherein the above-mentioned comments could be raised in a uniform manner.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a pump that has one inlet and two outlets for delivering fluid from one of the two outlets in accordance with an operation direction of a pump motor, i.e.; forward rotation or reverse rotation and that can switch one of the two outlets securely and smoothly.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a pump in which a structure of a switch valve for opening one of the two outlets and closing the other can be simplified.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide a pump having high reliability with a stable switching operation of the two outlets.
The above objects are solved by a pump having the features ofclaim 1. Some preferred embodiments are defined in the dependant claims.

- An embodiment of a pump according to the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.
- Figs. 1-4 are plan views showing a
pump chamber 10 of apump 1 according to this embodiment. Fig. 1 shows a pump stop state. Fig. 2 shows a start of a pump forward operation. Fig. 3 shows a pump forward operation. Fig. 4 shows a pump reverse operation. - The
pump 1 includes apump casing 11 that defines thepump chamber 10 and a reversible motor M that is placed below thepump casing 11. Thecasing 11 comprises a circumference wall portion 11-1 having a cylindrical shape, a part of which is swelled in the circumferential direction, an upper wall portion (not shown) that closes an upper face opening of the circumference wall portion 11-1 and a lower wall portion 11-2 that closes an lower face opening of the circumference wall portion 11-1. Arotation shaft 14 of the motor M passes through the lower wall portion 11-2 of thecasing 11 substantially at the middle portion and is led into thepump chamber 10. A portion of thecasing 11 where therotation shaft 14 of the lower wall portion 11-2 penetrate is shielded so as to prevent water in thepump chamber 10 from leaking while securing that therotation shaft 14 can rotate. Thepump chamber 10 houses animpeller 15 having a plurality ofvanes 16 substantially in a radial manner. The distal end of therotation shaft 14 that is led into thepump chamber 10 is linked to the rotation center of theimpeller 15, so that the motor M can rotate theimpeller 15. Theimpeller 15 is arranged coaxially with a cylindrical wall portion of the circumference wall portion 11-1. Between theimpeller 15 and the swelled portion of the circumference wall portion 11-1. there is a space larger than that between theimpeller 15 and the cylindrical wall portion. - The swelled portion of the circumference wall portion 11-1 of the
casing 11 is provided with afirst outlet 12 and asecond outlet 13 arranged in parallel and opening to thepump chamber 10. In addition, the position of the upper wall portion of thecasing 11 corresponding to theimpeller 15 is provided with an inlet 18 (shown by a dot-dashed line). Therotation shaft 14 of the motor (M) is located on a pump center line (L) that passes the center of the twooutlets pump chamber 10. Achannel 40 is formed between the rim of theimpeller 15 and the circumference wall of thecasing 11. - A
switch valve 2 for closing one of thefirst outlet 12 and thesecond outlet 13 and opening the other is provided between the rim of theimpeller 15 and each of the twooutlets pump chamber 10, i.e., in the above-mentioned relatively large space. Thisswitch valve 2 includes asector valve element 20 having anarc circumference surface 21 andvalve lid portions end surfaces arc circumference surface 21 of thevalve element 20. Apivot shaft 26 is provided at the cross line between two end surfaces of the sector and is disposed on the pump center line (L) in a rotative manner. Thesector valve element 20 can swing along with thearc circumference surface 21 facing theimpeller 15. Regardless of a rotation position of thevalve element 20, a distance (D) is constantly maintained between thearc circumference surface 21 and the rim of theimpeller 15. - The
valve lid portion 24 disposed at theend surface 22 of thesector valve element 20 faces thefirst outlet 12, while thevalve lid portion 25 disposed at theend surface 23 faces thesecond outlet 13. When thevalve element 20 swings in one direction or in the other direction, thevalve lid portion 24 and thevalve lid portion 25 close thefirst outlet 12 and thesecond outlet 13, respectively. The sector shape of thevalve element 20 is set so that thevalve lid portion 25 opens thesecond outlet 13 largely when thevalve lid portion 24 closes thefirst outlet 12, while thevalve lid portion 24 opens thefirst outlet 12 largely when thevalve lid portion 25 closes thesecond outlet 13. - The pump I having the above-mentioned structure works as follows. When the
impeller 15 is driven by the motor (M) and rotates, fluid is sucked into thepump chamber 10 through theinlet 18. In accordance with the rotation direction of theimpeller 15, a spiral flow of the fluid is generated in thechannel 40 in the forward or reverse rotation direction, when the fluid flows in thepump chamber 10. - At start of the forward operation of the
pump 1, as shown in Fig. 2, the motor (M) rotates theimpeller 15 in the clockwise direction as shown by the arrow al. Apart 42 of the fluid 41 flowing in thepump chamber 10 flows into the space between thecircumference surface 21 of theswitch valve 2 and theimpeller 15. Thearc circumference surface 21 receives the fluid 42, and viscosity of the fluid 42 generates a torque, which is transmitted to the entire of theswitch valve 2. Then, theswitch valve 2 is swinged around thepivot shaft 26 as shown by the arrow b1 in the direction of closing thesecond outlet 13. In this operation, thechannel 43 to thefirst outlet 12 is gradually opened, and it starts to deliver the fluid 41 through theoutlet 12. Since the distance (D) between thearc circumference surface 21 and the rim of theimpeller 15 is maintained at a constant value during the operation of theswitch valve 2, the torque due to the viscosity of the fluid 42 is generated continuously, so that the switching operation of theswitch valve 2 can be performed smoothly. - When the
pump 1 moves to a full operation, theswitch valve 2 closes thesecond outlet 13 completely by thevalve lid portion 25 as shown in Fig. 3. Themajor portion 44 of the fluid 41 flowing in thepump chamber 10 is delivered from thepump chamber 10 through thefirst outlet 12. Since apartial flow 45 of the fluid 41 flows into the space between thecircumference surface 21 of the switch valve and theimpeller 15, the torque is generated continuously. In addition, since the fluid 44 pushes thevalve lid portion 24 and flows into thefirst outlet 12, theswitch valve 2 keeps the sate where theoutlet 13 is closed, so that the delivering operation is performed only through thefirst outlet 12. - In addition, the distance (D) between the
arc circumference surface 21 and the rim of theimpeller 15 can be a small gap that is sufficient for the fluid turning in thepump chamber 10 to flow into the space between them so as to generate a torque of the fluid. Therefore, when theswitch valve 2 closes the channel to thesecond outlet 13 almost completely in the forward operation, quantity of flow in the direction to theoutlet 13 can he controlled to a minimum value necessary for generating the above-mentioned torque, so that quantity of delivering flow through thefirst outlet 12 can be secured and the delivering efficiency can be improved. - When the operation of the pump I is stopped, the
switch valve 2 becomes the state leaning to thesecond outlet 13 side as shown in Fig. 3. In this case, it is possible to apply a force to theswitch valve 2 to be always in the state as shown in Fig. 1. In addition, if thepump 1 is positioned horizontally so that theswitch valve 2 is located directly above theimpeller 15, theswitch valve 2 will fall to the position as shown in Fig. 1 due to a weight thereof when the operation is stopped. In any case, since there is a certain distance (D) between thecircumference surface 21 of theswitch valve 2 and theimpeller 15, new fluid can be led to thearc circumference surface 21 by restarting the operation so that the restart can be performed easily. - When the
pump 1 is in the reverse operation, theswitch valve 2 performs the action as shown in Fig. 4, in the direction opposite to the case of Fig. 2 or 3. Theswitch valve 2 closes thefirst outlet 12, andfluid 46 in thepump chamber 10 is delivered only through thesecond outlet 13. - The above-explained
switch valve 2 is made of a resin or a metal such as an aluminum alloy. Thevalve lid portions - Therefore, according to the above-explained
pump 1 of the present invention, a torque due to viscosity of fluid that is generated between thearc circumference surface 21 of theswitch valve 2 and theimpeller 16 is utilized for operating theswitch valve 2 having a simple structure with asector valve element 20. Accordingly, a pump can be realized that has little possibility of trouble such as a malfunction or an operational error of theswitch valve 2. In accordance with the operation direction of thepump 1, one of the outlets is closed while fluid is delivered only through the other outlet, so that high reliability can be realized. - In addition since the structure and the principle of operational of switch valve are simple, a complicated structure as the conventional one is not required. Since electric means such as a solenoid valve are not required, the structure of the pump itself can be simplified, so that cost reduction of the pump can be realized.
- Furthermore, the
arc circumference surface 21 of theswitch valve 2 can be processed by machine on the surface, e.g., projections and depressions of a stripe pattern as shown in Fig. 5 can be formed. Thisuneven portion 27 of thecircumference surface 21 enhances friction with fluid so as to receive the fluid easily and to generate a torque easily due to viscosity of the fluid. Thus, the operation of theswitch valve 2 can be secured and performed smoothly. Thisuneven portion 27 can be formed by a knurl process if thecircumference surface 21 is made of a metal, for example. Alternatively, ifcircumference surface 21 is made of a resin, theuneven portion 27 can be formed by injection modeling. - If the above-mentioned uneven portion is formed to have plural steps, it is preferable to form the uneven portion 28 like a hound's tooth check as shown in Fig. 6. Thus, distribution of the viscosity torque of the fluid that is generated on the
arc circumference surface 21 can be equalized, the operation of theswitch valve 2 can be stabilized, and switching between opening and closing of the outlet can be performed more smoothly.
