Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of operating a water-circulating household appliance such as e.g. a dishwasher or a washing machine, and to a water-circulating household appliance as such.
  • a water-circulating household appliance such as e.g. a dishwasher or a washing machine
  • WO 2000/028878 discloses a circulating pump for a water-circulating household appliance, such as a dishwasher or washing machine, which is provided with a wash tub and an electric heating device for heating the wash-water, as well as a pump housing which is flange-mounted on the motor housing of the pump and has suction and pressure stubs for the liquid to be circulated and heated in the circular flow.
  • the heating device is removably mounted on the pump housing in the water circuit of the pump. The combination of heating device and pump and the positioning of same in the water circuit of said pump, preferably in the pump housing, permits rapid and loss-free transfer of heat to the circulating wash-water.
  • GB 1002532 discloses a dishwashing machine comprising a rotary spray head disposed beneath a rack for holding dishes, tanks below the head for washing and rinsing liquids, respectively, a pump located between the tanks, and a valve operable to connect the required tank to the pump for the washing or rinsing operation.
  • the valve is first set to interconnect the tanks, and water is introduced by a hose into one of the tanks to a level slightly above a pipe interconnecting the tanks.
  • An immersion heater in one of the tanks is then energized to heat the water in both tanks, and subsequently the pump motor and the motor for rotating the spray head are started.
  • the soiled liquid returns to one of the tanks through a filter.
  • the heater may be omitted if the tanks are to be filled initially with hot water.
  • DE 90 10 254 U1 discloses a dishwasher with a pump motor, where the heat loss from the motor is used for heating the washing liquid.
  • the electric motor is driven with a higher electrical power input than required for circulating the washing liquid through the washing liquid circuit with the pump rotating in the primary direction of rotation, over a time period longer than 1 minute, the electric motor intentionally is driven with low efficiency, i.e. more electric power is input than required for simple pumping of washing liquid, excess electric energy input to the electric motor is transformed to heat in the windings of the electric motor. Moreover, since a portion of the washing liquid circuit is arranged in thermal communication with the electric motor, the heat is transferred to the washing liquid in this portion of the washing liquid circuit. As a result, the above mentioned object is achieved.
  • a heating element may be altogether omitted in a water-circulating household appliance, such as a dishwasher or a washing machine, wherein a portion of the washing liquid circuit is arranged in thermal communication with the electric motor and the electric motor is driven in accordance with the above defined method.
  • a compartment for the heater may be omitted in the washing liquid circuit, for instance if the thermal communication is arranged between a housing of the pump and the electric motor, the total washing liquid volume in the water-circulating household appliance may be reduced.
  • water may be saved and the amount of washing liquid requiring heating may be reduced, which saves energy.
  • the present invention revolves around the idea of intentionally driving the electric motor with low efficiency and utilizing excess heat from driving the electric motor to heat the washing liquid.
  • the water-circulating household appliance may for instance be a dishwasher or a washing machine.
  • the washing liquid circuit may for instance comprise, beside the pump, conduits for the washing liquid, a trough for collecting washing liquid, a washing liquid tank or reservoir, a washing arm or other means of distributing the washing liquid to elements being cleaned in the water-circulating household appliance.
  • the washing liquid may be water or water with an added detergent, other cleaning agent, or other additive.
  • Various different washing liquids may be used during one full washing operation of elements in the water-circulating household appliance.
  • the portion of the washing liquid circuit arranged in thermal communication with the electric motor may for instance be a housing of the pump, a washing liquid inlet to the pump extending through a rotor axle of the electric motor, a length of conduit extending around at least a portion of the electric motor, a washing liquid tank or reservoir of the water-circulating household appliance against which, or inside which, the electric motor is arranged, or any other similar arrangement.
  • the primary direction of rotation of the pump is the direction of rotation, in which the pump is designed to be rotated in order to provide an efficient pumping of the washing liquid.
  • the step of driving the electric motor, over a time period longer than 1 minute, with a higher electrical power input than required for circulating the washing liquid through the washing liquid circuit with the pump rotating in the primary direction of rotation, provides an intentional low efficiency during pumping the washing liquid.
  • the low efficiency may be created mechanically or dynamically in connection with the pump, or electrically in connection with the electric motor.
  • the excessive electric power input generates heat in the windings of the electric motor, which is transferred to the washing liquid in the portion of the washing liquid circuit arranged in thermal communication with the electric motor.
  • the time period longer than 1 minute may be longer than 10 minutes, longer than 20 minutes, or longer than 30 minutes.
  • the step of driving the electric motor may comprise a step of rotating the electric motor in the second direction of rotation to rotate the pump in a direction opposite to the primary direction of rotation. In this manner the pump is driven with low efficiency and electrical power is transferred into heat in the electric motor.
  • the pump may be for instance a centrifugal pump.
  • a centrifugal pump has a central fluid inlet and a peripheral fluid outlet.
  • An impeller of the centrifugal pump is provided with blades, which pump the fluid from the central inlet to the peripheral outlet.
  • a centrifugal pump is commonly designed with curved blades thus, providing a primary direction of rotation of the centrifugal pump, in which primary direction of rotation the pump is most efficient.
  • fluid may also be pumped however, with lower efficiency. That is, in the opposite direction of rotation a higher number of revolutions per time unit and/or a higher momentum is required to create a desired flow rate of fluid at the outlet of the pump. Such higher number of revolutions and/or higher momentum will require a higher electrical input, which generates heat in the electric motor.
  • the method may comprise a step of measuring a temperature of the washing liquid. In this manner it may be decided whether the washing liquid has reached a desired temperature.
  • the method may comprise a step of rotating the electric motor in the first direction of rotation and rotating the pump in the primary direction of rotation.
  • the washing liquid may be circulated in the water-circulating household appliance in an energy efficient manner once the washing liquid has reached a desired temperature.
  • a water-circulating household appliance comprising an electric motor and a washing liquid circuit, the washing liquid circuit comprising a pump driven by the electric motor and arranged to circulate washing liquid through the washing liquid circuit.

  • the pump 8 may be a centrifugal pump.
  • the washing liquid circuit 6 further comprises conduits 10, rotating arms 12 provided with nozzles, and a trough 14.
  • the pump 8 pumps the washing liquid to the rotating arms 12, wherein the washing liquid is distributed in a washing compartment 16.
  • two trays 18 are provided for holding dishes to be washed.
  • the washing liquid distributed in the washing compartment 16 is collected in the trough 14, from where it is led back to the pump 8.
  • the electric motor 4 is arranged to drive the pump 8.
  • the electric motor 4 has a first direction of rotation and a second direction of rotation.
  • the pump 8 has a primary direction of rotation corresponding to the first direction of rotation of the electric motor 4.

  • the water supplied to the water-circulating household appliance 2 may be warm water thus, requiring less heating than if cold water were to be supplied. Mentioned purely as an example, circulating the washing liquid through the water-circulating household appliance 2 may require 60 - 90 W of electrical power.
