Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a water-conducting household appliance with a make suredosiersystem.
  • the majority of household dishwashers currently in use has an adding device for receiving one or more cleaning agents which are added to the washing liquor during the course of a washing cycle for cleaning the items to be sorted in the dishwasher.
  • the detergent stored in the adding device is completely discharged into the washing compartment during the rinsing cycle and mixed with the rinsing water circulated therein.
  • the addition device is sized in size so that just the required amount of detergent for a rinse cycle can be filled. The user of the dishwasher is therefore forced to fill in the adding device the amount of detergent required for the rinse cycle at the beginning of each rinse cycle. This handling is inconvenient for the user of the dishwasher.
  • such dishwashers have the problem that the amount of cleaning agent introduced into the adding device may vary from user to user, but also from one rinse to another.
  • an incorrectly metered amount of cleaning agent can lead to unsatisfactory scavenging results if the cleaning agents have been dispensed too low and, on the other hand, a waste of cleaning agents and thus environmental pollution if too large an amount of cleaning agent has been dispensed.
  • Addition devices which add the amount of cleaning agents stored therein at once to the rinsing liquor still do not permit the implementation of more complex rinsing programs. Thus, it may be useful, for example, in certain situations, to meter in the detergent at different times of the wash liquor. Addition devices configured to receive a single detergent dose can not support such complex rinse cycles.
  • the household dishwasher has the DE 10 2005 061 801 A1 a metering device for controlling the addition of adding substances, for.
  • a storage insert for adding substances eg cleaning and / or rinsing substances
  • the dosing device can be assigned an interface device for interaction with different storage inserts for different types of addition substances, for example tabs, powdery or liquid.
  • the interface device is preferably arranged on the metering device.
  • the cartridge according to the invention for use in a detergent dosing system of a water-conducting household appliance, in particular a domestic dishwasher, has at least one detergent dispenser with a receiving space for receiving at least one cartridge, wherein the cartridge having separate chambers for receiving at least one cleaning agent. It is provided according to the invention that the chambers are in communication with at least one openable and at least once again closable closure. Since the cartridge only has to be opened once when it is inserted into a detergent dosing system and only has to be closed once when it is removed from a detergent system, it is preferably provided that the closure is designed for a single opening and a one-time closure.
  • the closure for the automatic opening and closing during insertion or removal of the cartridge is formed in a a starsffendosiersystem.
  • the closure ensures that the detergent stored in the cartridge can not leak unintentionally.
  • the closure is opened at the moment in which the cartridge is inserted into the detergent dispenser of the detergent dosing system, so that a metered addition of the detergent to the rinsing liquor is possible during the further operation of the dishwasher.
  • the openable closure may e.g. in the direction of gravity below, i. be arranged at the bottom of the cartridge when the cartridge is in installation position in the detergent dosing. As a result, the complete emptying of the cartridge is facilitated in its installed position, whereby no detergent remains unused in the cartridge.
  • a constructively particularly simply constructed and inexpensive to produce cartridge results when the openable closure is formed by a membrane, a film or an elastomer. If the cartridge is e.g. made of a plastic, so the cartridge can be manufactured together with the openable closure by a two-component injection molding in one step.
  • a cartridge according to the invention has at least one closure which, with the cartridge inserted into the detergent dosing system, is arranged corresponding to an opening means of the detergent dosing system, so that the openable closure is brought into an open position, in which the cleaning agent, in particular by the detergent dosing system, in one Rinse cycle is zugebbar.
  • the cartridge according to the invention is provided with an openable closure which can be opened automatically on insertion into the detergent dosing system and can be automatically closed when removing the cartridge from the detergent dosing system.

  • the cannula is stationary in the detergent dosing system. In this way, cleaning agent can be introduced into the detergent dosing system via the cannula during a rinsing cycle and metered into the rinsing liquor by the latter.
  • the opening caused by the cannula closes due to the elastic properties of the openable closure, that an escape of possibly remaining residues of cleaning agent is prevented.
  • This is provided with the simplest means an at least once again closable closure.
  • the number of openable closures of the cartridge corresponds to the number of cleaning agents stored in the cartridge or to a number of chambers receiving the cleaning agents.
  • the at least one cleaning agent is stored in respective chambers of the cartridge, further comprising a venting chamber operatively connected to the chambers.
  • the storage of different cleaning agents in different chambers has the advantage that in a certain section of a rinsing cycle only that cleaning agent needs to be added, which is actually necessary for this rinsing section. Of course, it is possible that during a certain portion of a rinsing cycle, several of the cleaning agents are added simultaneously. Furthermore, it is possible to arrange a plurality of cleaning agents in a common chamber of the cartridge.
  • the ventilation chamber ensures that in the respective, detergent receiving chambers with increasing emptying no negative pressure can occur, which would be a detrimental to a dosing of detergent in the wash liquor.

  • the coding is designed such that the cartridge can be inserted into the detergent dispenser in only one way, the predetermined way. In this way it is ensured that the openable closure can be arranged corresponding to the opening means of the detergent dosing system.
  • the cartridge may have any suitable shape.
  • the housing of the cartridge has a longitudinal extent along a main axis.
  • This may be, for example, a quarter-basic body with a longitudinal axis, for example. Along the width, which is much longer than all other axes (along the depth and height). But it may also be a cone, truncated cone, cylinder, pyramid or truncated pyramidal basic body with a major axis.
  • the major axis be longer than minor axes of the housing with one of the above basic shape of the cartridge, e.g. by a factor of at least 1.5.
  • the base body may preferably have an extension along a first minor axis, e.g. along the height, and an extension along a second minor axis, e.g. along the depth, the extent along the first minor axis being substantially longer than the extent along the second minor axis, e.g. by a factor of 5 to 10, preferably 5.
  • a particularly good handling of the cartridge and a suitable volume of respective cleaning agents arise when the housing of the cartridge has a quarry-shaped basic shape with a depth of about 25 mm, a width of about 200 mm and a Height of about 125 mm.
