Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dishwasher, which has a washing at least water leading rinsing container for cleaning of inserted Good, wherein the washing compartment is made in several parts and at least one single or multi-piece ground unit and a single or multi-piece, connected to the ground unit in the mounted position Hood unit, wherein the hood unit forms a molded from a first sheet U-shaped portal with side walls and an upper wall and is preferably welded to a used between the side walls rear wall to a complete hood unit and wherein the bottom unit and hood unit are sealed from each other.
  • the processing rooms for introduced Good such as crockery, cutlery, glasses and the like form to produce a total of stainless steel, the Spül actuallyer example, with a rear wall, an upper and lower wall and two side walls total to one Assembly unit welded and closed at the front by a movable door.
  • rinsing containers are often composed of a plurality of structural units, wherein a floor unit, which may also comprise lower parts of a rear wall or of side walls as upstanding flange areas, for example for reasons of material and weight saving made of a plastic and on this floor unit a hood unit, which is formed for example of stainless steel, is placed during assembly.
  • the hood unit may have approximately the shape of an inverted "U" and include the two side walls and an upper wall, so that the rear wall must then be fitted separately.
  • the hood unit can also include the rear wall, so that only the assembly step of assembling the two named units, hood unit and floor unit is to be carried out for a final assembly of the washing container.
  • the publication US 2006/054195 A1 discloses a dishwasher comprising a housing, a container provided in the housing for receiving dishes to be washed, a bottom provided on the container for receiving the wash liquor having an upper end which does not protrude above the lower surface of the container, and a spray arranged in the container for spraying crockery with rinsing liquor taken from the sump.

  • the rinsing container 2 is in operation with water and optionally with cleaning agents and / or rinse aid, excipients and / or additives such as salts added water, that is generally called rinsing liquor or rinse S, acted upon, for example, via spray arms 3, 4 introduced be and act on the Spülkörben 5, 6 held dishes.
  • the size of the washing container 2, the number of washing baskets and spray arms and the respective geometry are variable.
  • the washing container 2 is designed here as a sealed inner container in an outer housing. However, this is not mandatory, since the outer housing can at least largely be omitted in built-in appliances.
  • the rinsing container 2 is composed of several units, here of a bottom unit 7 and a hood unit 8, wherein these units 7, 8 may each be constructed in one piece or in several pieces.
  • the hood unit can form a U-shaped portal formed from a first sheet with side walls 9, 10 and an upper wall 11 and welded to a complete hood unit 8 with a rear wall 12 inserted between the side walls 9, 10.
  • a hood unit 8 consists essentially of stainless steel
  • the bottom unit 7 is often made of plastic for weight and cost savings.
  • the hood unit 8 and the bottom unit 7 are fixed and sealed against each other to form a washing container 2 connected to each other.
  • the rinsing container 2 can be closed by a front door pivotable about a horizontal axis 13a, which has an inner wall 14 facing the interior of the rinsing container 2 and movable with the door 13.
  • this can for example also close the washing container 2 on the top.
  • the dishwasher 1 further comprises a supply device for fresh water FW, can be introduced via the supplied fresh water from outside FW in the washing compartment 2.
  • the water from the washing container 2 collects due to its gravity as a rinse S in a collecting pot 15, which is in the lower part of the washing container 2 as a recess in its bottom, which is also referred to as a washing tub 16 and here in the embodiment part of the bottom unit 7 , is located.
  • a washing tub 16 which is also referred to as a washing tub 16 and here in the embodiment part of the bottom unit 7 , is located.
  • a total designated 17 screening device can also be a total designated 17 screening device.
  • the collecting pot 15 is followed by a circulating pump, by means of which the rinsing liquor or rinsing liquor liquid S can be pumped during a circulation phase of a rinsing from the collecting pot 15 via a heater to a distribution space for re-introduction into the, preferably rotatably mounted, spray arms 3, 4.
  • a suds pump is furthermore provided which is connected on the suction side to the collection pot 15 and on the outlet side to a waste water connection line.
  • the seal 18 here has a horizontal, in plan view approximately U-shaped course and surrounds the hood unit 8 circumferentially outside in its lower region.
  • the seal 18 may be held firmly in different ways on the hood unit 8, for example, glued to this, welded and / or bolted.
  • the seal 18 is held at least mechanically fixed to the hood unit 8. An additional attachment, such as gluing, is possible.
