Definitions

  • the present invention is a dishwasher with a spray device and an associated method
  • Known spraying devices e.g. for dishwashers, have rotary arms, is pumped through the spray liquid and the rotational movement is generated by the reaction force of the exiting liquid.
  • These so-called spray arms are supplied with flushing fluid via a pump. Since, conventionally, the rinsing container has a rectangular outline, the corner regions of the rinsing container are insufficiently reached by the spray arms, which traverse a substantially circular path. This disadvantage is avoided for example by so-called spray floors, which have the disadvantage of being able to spray only point-like areas and thus the items to be cleaned can not be sufficiently wetted with the rinsing liquid at all points.
  • FR 1 492 249 A discloses a dishwasher gem. the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a spraying apparatus and method which makes it possible to optimally utilize the scarcely dimensioned space resources in the washing container of a dishwasher and also to provide a spraying or spraying pattern which essentially permits items to be arranged in a dish rack completely wet.
  • the spraying device consists of at least one tubular pipe having two ends with spray openings for spraying a liquid, wherein according to the invention the two ends of the pipe-like pipe are connected to means which are designed such that the liquid is under a predetermined pressure optionally through the first and / or second end in the tubular conduit and flows out through the spray openings.
  • the means are designed as pumps, which are respectively connected to the ends of the tubular conduit.
  • the pumps are connected to each other via a program control unit and are controlled accordingly in the program control unit stored program sequences.
  • the means are formed as a pump and a control unit, said control unit divides the respective liquid portions to the two ends of the tubular conduit via a rotary member.
  • the rotary element is designed as a rotary distributor, so that over the rotational speed of the rotary distributor, the spray behavior of the liquid can be influenced and thus controlled.
  • the pressure p 2 builds up according to the equation of continuity and the correspondingly pressurized liquid portions endeavor to leave the pipe section 11 through spray openings.
  • the outlet direction of the pressurized fluid fractions depends essentially on the force ratios of v 1 and v 2 in the respective fluid sections, wherein the exit angle can be determined according to vector equations.
  • specific spray patterns can be created, for example, by means of corresponding program sequences which are stored in the program control unit.
  • a FIG. 2 To produce trained spray pattern in which abut at both ends of the tubular conduit corresponding amounts of liquid at the same pressure values, so that cancel approximately in the middle of the tubular conduit, the velocity vectors of the liquid in the tube of the value and only a corresponding pressure value is applied, so that the water jet emerging from the tube-like conduit leaves the spray opening substantially at right angles.
  • Different pressure progression programs are stored in the control unit in order to allow different spray profiles and spray patterns, for example zone rinses, in accordance with the choice of the rinse programs.
  • a multiplicity of the tube-like lines with spray openings are provided in a dishwashing machine, so that a corresponding cross-sectional area in the washing compartment can be reliably charged with appropriate spraying jets.
  • the spray device has the following advantages:
  • the outlet angles and the location of the maximum volume flow of the individual spray jets emerging from the openings can be precisely controlled by means of the pressure and speed control of the liquid, so that individual areas (zone rinses) can be intensively exposed to rinsing liquid with a specific spray pattern.
  • the device according to the invention requires no moving parts, such as rotatable nozzle heads, so that both the production and the assembly over conventional spray systems is less expensive or more efficient.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic sectional view through a tubular conduit 1 of a spray device with the respective sections I, I *, II, III * and III, wherein spray holes 2 are provided only in section II.
  • the sections I and III serve only to transport the liquid 3, the thickness of the arrows representing the respective static pressure state and the length of the arrows representing the velocity vector.
  • the liquid has a relatively high pressure, so that according to the Bernoulli equation, the velocity of the liquid 3 is relatively low.
  • the transition region I * which corresponds to a throttle causes a tapering of the cross-sectional area, so that in the region II is a relatively high speed, but the fluid pressure is low. This state ensures that no liquid emerges from the spray openings 2.
  • the speed is again reduced according to the Bernoulli equation and a higher pressure builds up in the liquid 3.
  • this speed reduction can be effected in each region of the section II of the tube 1, wherein the location of the speed reduction can be controlled by appropriate means, such as pumps.
  • FIG. 3 a schematic representation of the spraying device is shown, wherein wash items 7 are shown schematically, which is wetted by liquid jets (represented by arrows).
  • the respective spray direction or spray patterns can be controlled, for example, by a rotary distributor 4, wherein the rotational speed of the rotary element significantly influences the spray pattern.
  • the spray openings 2 of the spray device are formed in the illustrated embodiments as nozzle openings, but may alternatively be formed as at least one longitudinal slot.
  • the exit angle and the location of the maximum outflows of the individual spray streams are precisely controllable via the pressure and speed control of the liquid, so that individual areas (zone rinsing) can be intensively charged with rinsing liquid with a specific spray pattern ,
  • the sprayer does not require any moving parts, such as rotatable die heads, so that both fabrication and assembly are more cost effective and efficient over conventional spray systems.
  • An unspecified dishwasher has at least one of the spraying devices explained above. These spraying devices can alternatively be arranged below at least one dish rack but also in at least one dish rack or at the bottom of a dishwashing container of the dishwasher or in the bottom. Of course, combinations of these arrangement options are possible.
