Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dishwashing machine.
  • the operation of known dishwashing machines provides for the user to insert into a loading basket a set of crockery of various kinds, such as dishes, glasses, cutlery, pots and the like, then to start the washing program and lastly to withdraw the washed crockery from the same basket, after a certain period of time (which is generally in the order of minutes or tens of minutes).
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a dishwashing machine that enables dishes to be washed in an extremely shortened time, electrical energy consumption to be reduced and dishes to be washed at different times according to requirements.
  • the invention is based on the idea of producing a dishwashing machine comprising a first and a second washing section, respectively intended for washing individual dishes and other crockery, in which the first washing section includes a first degreasing unit comprising a pair of spraying devices provided with nozzles for spraying a degreasing liquid, between which spraying devices a single dish to be washed can be inserted each time, a second rinsing unit comprising a pair of spraying devices provided with nozzles for spraying a rinsing liquid, between which spraying devices a single dish to be rinsed can be inserted each time, and a conveyor device adapted to transfer each time a dish from the degreasing unit to the rinsing unit.
  • the first washing section includes a first degreasing unit comprising a pair of spraying devices provided with nozzles for spraying a degreasing liquid, between which spraying devices a single dish to be washed can be inserted each time,
  • the dishwashing machine enables the user to wash a single dish at a time in an extremely short time, in the order of a few seconds.
  • the capability to wash a single dish and the use, both in the degreasing unit and in the rinsing unit, of a pair of spraying devices that act on the opposite sides of the dish enable in fact the time required to execute the cycle for washing a dish to be minimized.
  • the dishwashing machine is preferably constructed in the form of a wall unit, on whose front face are provided a first slot through which the dish to be washed is inserted between the spraying devices of the degreasing unit and a second slot through which the washed and rinsed dish is withdrawn from the rinsing unit.
  • the two degreasing and rinsing units are positioned one after the other along an inclined direction, so as to exploit the weight force of the dish to transfer the dish from the degreasing unit to the rinsing unit.
  • the rinsing unit is arranged to dry the dish after rinsing it.
  • the second washing section features a basket for the crockery to be washed (in particular cups, glasses, cutlery and possibly also pots), below and above which are positioned a series of spraying devices provided with nozzles for spraying the degreasing liquid and the rinsing liquid.
  • the spraying devices are preferably constructed in the form of rotors, but they can also be fixed.
  • programming means are provided which enable the user to set the washing cycle according to the type of crockery introduced in the basket, e.g. providing a shorter washing cycle in the case of glasses, cups and cutlery and a longer washing cycle in the case of pots and the like.
  • a dishwashing machine according to the invention is generally indicated 10 and, in the illustrated constructive example, is constructed in the form of a wall unit able to be installed with its rear face 10a against a wall (not shown).
  • the dishwashing machine 10 fundamentally comprises a first upper washing section 12, intended to wash individual dishes, and a second lower washing section 14, intended to wash the other crockery, such as cups, glasses, cutlery and possibly also pots and the like.
  • both washing sections 12 and 14 are of the kind with spraying nozzles positioned on spraying devices (constructed in the form of rotors in the illustrated embodiment) and with housing compartments or baskets in which crockery to be washed is positioned stationary to be subjected to the action of jets of degreasing and rinsing liquid emitted by the nozzles.
  • a housing area 16 is provided in which are installed various components of the dishwashing machine 10, all per se well known to the person skilled in the art and thus not described in detail herein, such as in particular a pump 18, a filter 20, a pressure switch 22, a water inlet connector 24, a water discharge connector 26, a salt container 28 and a decalcifying device 30.
  • the first washing section 12 (dishes only) includes a degreasing unit 32 and a rinsing unit 34.
  • the degreasing unit 32 comprises a pair of spraying devices 36 and 38, respectively upper and lower, which are preferably made as rotors and are each provided with spraying nozzles (per se known and not shown) through which jets of a degreasing liquid, generally water and detergent, are emitted.
  • the two spraying devices 36 and 38 are positioned facing each other and mutually spaced apart so as to define between them a free space in which a single dish P to be washed can be accommodated.
  • a first slot 40 is provided, preferably aligned with the free space between the two spraying devices 36 and 38, through which the dish to be washed P can be inserted between the two spraying devices 36 and 38 of the degreasing unit 32.
  • the rinsing unit 34 comprises a pair of spraying devices 42 and 44, respectively upper and lower, which are also preferably made as rotors and are each provided with spraying nozzles (per se known and not shown) through which jets of a rinsing liquid, generally water are emitted.
  • the two spraying devices 42 and 44 are arranged facing each other and mutually spaced apart so as to define between them a free space in which the plate P coming from the degreasing unit 32 can be accommodated.
  • a second slot 46 is provided, preferably aligned with the free space between the two spraying devices 42 and 44, through which the dish P can be withdrawn from the machine at the end of the washing cycle.
  • the second unit 34 can obviously be arranged to perform, after the rinsing operation, also the drying of the dish P. To this end, it is sufficient that after the rinsing operation the two spraying devices 42 and 44 emit air jets through the respective spraying nozzles.
  • a conveyor device 48 for transferring the dish P each time from the degreasing unit 32 to the rinsing unit 34 is provided.
  • the two units are advantageously positioned one after the other along an inclined direction. In this way, the dish P tends to move by gravity from the degreasing unit 32 to the rinsing unit 34.
  • the second washing section 14 is a conventional washing section, with a collecting basket 50 for the crockery to be washed (in particular cups, glasses, cutlery and possibly pots as well), and with a series of spraying devices 52, 54 and 56, preferably made as rotors and provided with spraying nozzles (per se known and not shown) for spraying the degreasing liquid and the rinsing liquid.
  • a pair of lower spraying devices 52 and 54 and a single upper spraying device 56 respectively positioned above and below the collecting basket 50, are provided.
  • the collecting basket 50 is accessible through a front opening in the second washing section 14, which can be opened and closed by means of a door 58.
  • the dishwashing machine 10 is provided with an electronic programming unit (per se known and not shown) which enables the user to set, through a control panel 60, the washing cycle to be executed according to the type of crockery introduced into the basket.
  • an electronic programming unit per se known and not shown
  • a shorter washing cycle will generally be provided for glasses, cups and cutlery and a longer washing cycle for pots and crockery of similar sizes.
  • the dishwashing machine according to the invention can clearly also be constructed as a normal dishwashing unit, floor-mountable or able to be built into a modular kitchen.
