Definitions

  • the present invention refers in general to a dishwashing machine and, more in particular, to a system for drying dishes for a dishwashing machine.
  • dishwashing machines of the so called "tunnel" type.
  • These dishwashing machines generally comprise a plurality of operation areas, or modules, arranged in series that are crossed, during the operation of the machine, by the dishes to be washed placed on suitable transport means, such as conveyor belts or mobile baskets.
  • a tunnel type dishwashing machine normally comprises, in order, a pre-washing area of the dishes, an actual wash area, a rinse area and a drying area of the dishes themselves.
  • the dish transport means can be actuated according to at least two operation speeds, which can be selected depending on the type and on the number of dishes, as well as depending on how dirty they are.
  • the variation of the speed of such transport means is, clearly, in inverse proportion to the variation of time the dishes have been subjected to the water jets in the pre-washing and washing areas of the machine.
  • the drying of the dishes is commonly carried out within modules provided with one or more fans, which recirculate the air from the drying area itself and take a portion of air from outside to convey it onto the dishes passing through.
  • Suitable heating means thus provide for increasing the temperature of the air conveyed by the fans, so as to ensure a more effective drying of the dishes.
  • the drying module sucks in a portion of air from outside, recycling the remaining part of air from inside the module itself. This causes hot air to come out into the surrounding area, increasing the tunnel effect and uselessly heating the dishes.
  • the dishes accumulate heat while passing within the tunnel.
  • the quantity of heat accumulated is related to the material such dishes are made from.
  • the heat accumulated by the dishes is let off into the area surrounding the machine, thus reducing the energy efficiency of the machine itself.
  • the purpose of the present invention is, therefore, that of solving the problems of tunnel type dishwashers according to the prior art, by providing a dishwashing machine and a relative system for drying dishes that make it possible to carry out the drying step of the dishes themselves in an effective manner, independently from the outside conditions in which the dishwashing machine is operating.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is that of providing a dishwashing machine and a relative system for drying dishes which make it possible to optimize the electric energy used to carry out the treatment of the dishes.
  • a further purpose of the present invention is that of providing a dishwashing machine and a relative system for drying dishes which do not negatively affect the surrounding environment in which the machine is operating, i.e. limiting the emissions of heat and of moist air by the machine itself.
  • a dishwashing machine is shown according to the present invention, in particular of the so called tunnel type, wholly indicated with reference numeral 10.
  • the dishwashing machine 10 comprises, in a per se known manner, at least one pre-washing area or module 12, at least one washing area or module 14 and at least one rinsing area or module 16 that are crossed, during the operation of the machine 10, by the dishes to be washed, placed on suitable transport means 18 such as, for example, conveyor belts or baskets.
  • the pre-washing module 12 and the washing module 14 respectively have a pre-wash tank 20 and a wash tank 22, operatively connected to one another, and at least one pump 24, 26 adapted to supply pre-washing/washing liquid to a plurality of spray nozzles, upper 28, 30 and lower 32, 34, with respect to the transport means 18 of the dishes.
  • the rinsing module 16 can comprise a pump 36 adapted to supply the rinse water, contained in a tank 38, to a series of spray nozzles, upper 40 and lower 42, with respect to the transport means 18 of the dishes. It can also be foreseen for there to be at least one boiler 44, or an equivalent heating device, which is able to heat the water to be supplied during the rinsing of the dishes within the rinsing module 16.
  • the machine 10 finally comprises at least one drying area or module 46, positioned downstream of the rinsing module 16.
  • the drying module 46 also has at least one dehumidifying device 50 which is able to dehumidify the air conveyed by the fans 48 onto the dishes passing through the drying module 46 itself. Therefore, thanks to the use of the dehumidifying device 50, the drying module 46 of the dishwashing machine 10 is able to carry out the drying of the dishes by blowing dry air onto them, at high speed.
  • the drying module 46 is provided with a plurality of closed ducts 54, that is to say without any type of openings that allow air to be exchanged with outside, which are able to convey the dry air, coming from the dehumidifying device 50, towards the dishes passing through the drying module 46 itself.
  • the air used in the drying module 46 of the dishwashing machine 10 is completely recycled and there is no addition of air from outside.
  • the temperature and humidity conditions of the air that licks the dishes is such as to absorb the drops of water on the dishes themselves while simultaneously absorbing their heat, bringing them back to a temperature that is close to room temperature.
  • the dehumidifying device 50 of the drying module 46 is made up of a heat pump, provided with an evaporator/condenser group 52 that in turn comprises a pair of evaporator elements and a pair of condenser elements.
  • the dry air, dehumidified by the heat pump, hits the dishes passing through on the transport means 18 and makes the residual water present on the dishes themselves evaporate, becoming humid.
  • the moist air is thus sucked in by suitable suction means present in the drying module 46 and it is passed through the evaporator of the evaporator/condenser group 52, in such a manner that the moisture contained in it condensates and is able to be discharged.
  • the dehumidified air finally continues its path within one of the condensers of the evaporator/condenser group 52, thus returning to the initial temperature and humidity values.
  • the possible excess energy of the refrigerating cycle which is carried out inside the heat pump, is given up to the water of one of the tanks 20, 22 and/or 38 through the other condenser of the evaporator/condenser group 52.
  • the dehumidifying device 50 on the dishwashing machine 10 it is thus possible to efficiently eliminate the water from all the dishes passing through the machine 10 itself for numerous types of operative conditions.
  • the following table shows the amount of water (in grams per single dish) that it is possible to eliminate from some dishes based upon the supplying conditions (in dishes per hour) of the dishwashing machine 10. Dishes Amount of water eliminated [gldish] Number of dishes introduced into the machine [dish / h] dishes (porcelain, polycarbonate) 7.96 1800 ⁇ 9500 trays (melamine, various plastic materials) 23.27 500 ⁇ 4750 glasses (glass) 8.83 2500 ⁇ 7500
  • the dehumidifying device 50 By using the dehumidifying device 50 on the dishwashing machine 10 it is also possible to obtain, as shown in figure 2 , an almost zero exchange air flowrate between the machine 10 itself and the outside, to the benefit of the operative conditions of the working personnel. At the same time it is ensured that the dishes come out from the machine 10 at room temperature once they have been washed and dried, so as to be able to be used again immediately. Finally, it can be noted how the energy recovered from the dishes, and the energy introduced by the compressor of the dehumidifying device 50 and by the fans 48, can be given up to a tank containing water that can be heated up to 70°C, with obvious advantages in terms of energy saving.
  • the dishwashing machine and the relative system for drying dishes of the present invention thus conceived can in any case undergo numerous modifications and variants, all covered by the same inventive concept; moreover, all the details can be replaced by technically equivalent elements.
  • the materials used, as well as the shapes and sizes, can be any according to the technical requirements.
