Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Geschirrspüler, insbesondere einen Haushaltsgeschirrspüler, sowie ein Verfahren gemäss dem Oberbegriff der unabhängigen Ansprüche. Der Geschirrspüler umfasst einen Bottich zur Aufnahme von Geschirr und eine Heizvorrichtung zur Erwärmung von Prozesswasser. Weiter umfasst der Geschirrspüler eine Steuerung aufweisend ein Kurzreinigungsprogramm mit einer Heizphase zur Reinigung des Geschirrs.The invention relates to a dishwasher, in particular a household dishwasher, and a method according to the preamble of the independent claims. The dishwasher includes a tub for holding dishes and a heater for heating process water. The dishwasher also includes a controller having a short cleaning program with a heating phase for cleaning the dishes.
In einem Einpersonenhaushalt können mehrere Tage vergehen bis der Geschirrspüler mit Geschirr vollständig beladen ist, sodass der Benutzer das Reinigungsprogramm auslöst. Bei einer solch langen Zeitspanne führt angeschmutztes Geschirr zu hygienischen Problemen. Im Allgemeinen zeigt sich, dass nach ca. zwei Tagen die mikrobielle Aktivität soweit fortgeschritten ist, dass deutliche Geruchsbildung entsteht und Schimmelbildung langsam sichtbar werden kann. Diesem Problem kann teilweise abgeholfen werden, indem der Benutzer die Türe des Geschirrspülers geöffnet lässt, damit ein Luftaustausch mit dem Raum stattfindet. Dies kann allerdings auch vergessen gehen oder gewisse Benutzer schliessen die Türe nach dem Einfüllen von neuem verschmutztem Geschirr immer.In a one-person household, it can take several days for the dishwasher to be fully loaded with dishes so that the user initiates the cleaning program. With such a long period of time, soiled dishes lead to hygienic problems. In general, it can be seen that after about two days the microbial activity has progressed to such an extent that a clear odor develops and mold formation can slowly become visible. This problem can be partially solved by allowing the user to leave the dishwasher door open to allow air exchange with the dishwasher space takes place. However, this can also be forgotten or certain users always close the door after loading new dirty dishes.
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, in einem Geschirrspüler eine geeignete Massnahme zur Verbesserung der Hygiene vorzusehen.The object of the invention is to provide a suitable measure for improving hygiene in a dishwasher.
Diese Aufgabe wird vom Geschirrspüler gemäss dem unabhängigen Vorrichtungsanspruch erfüllt. Demgemäss umfasst der Geschirrspüler einen Bottich zur Aufnahme von Geschirr, eine Heizvorrichtung zum Heizen von Prozesswasser und eine Steuerung aufweisend ein Kurzreinigungsprogramm mit einer Heizphase zur Reinigung des Geschirrs. Die Steuerung ist dazu ausgestaltet, während des gesamten Kurzreinigungsprogramms das Prozesswasser nicht zu ersetzen und mittels der Heizvorrichtung das Prozesswasser während der Heizphase zu heizen. Die Steuerung ist dazu ausgestaltet, das Prozesswasser in der Heizphase zumindest teilweise auf mindestens 35°C aufzuheizen.This task is fulfilled by the dishwasher according to the independent device claim. Accordingly, the dishwasher includes a tub for accommodating dishes, a heating device for heating process water and a controller having a short cleaning program with a heating phase for cleaning the dishes. The controller is designed not to replace the process water during the entire short cleaning program and to heat the process water during the heating phase by means of the heating device. The controller is designed to at least partially heat the process water to at least 35° C. during the heating phase.
Unter einem Programm ist eine in sich geschlossene Einheit einer Folge von Anweisungen zu verstehen. Bei einem Geschirrspüler wird ein Programm insbesondere durch den Benutzer ausgelöst. Ein Programm stellt somit nicht eine Phase eines längeren und übergeordneten Programms dar. Vor und nach der Durchführung des Programms steht der Geschirrspüler normalerweise still.A program is a self-contained unit of a sequence of instructions. In a dishwasher, a program is triggered in particular by the user. A program is therefore not a phase of a longer and higher-level program. Before and after the program has been carried out, the dishwasher is normally idle.
Unter dem Merkmal "das Prozesswasser nicht zu ersetzen" ist grundsätzlich gemeint, dass sobald Prozesswasser aus dem Prozesswasserkreislauf abgelassen wird, darf kein neues Prozesswasser dem Prozesswasserkreislauf zugeführt werden. Wenn hiervon in geringen Wassermengen abgewichen wird, ist das Merkmal trotzdem noch erfüllt.The feature "not to replace the process water" basically means that as soon as process water is drained from the process water cycle, no new process water may be added to the process water cycle. If there is a deviation from this in small amounts of water, the feature is still fulfilled.
Die Heizphase entspricht derjenigen Phase, während derer die Heizvorrichtung aktiviert ist. Sie ist Bestandteil des Kurzreiniungsprogramms.The heating phase corresponds to the phase during which the heating device is activated. It is part of the short cleaning program.
Mittels diesem Kurzreinigungsprogramm kann die Hygiene im Geschirrspüler verbessert werden. Ohne dass ein umfassendes Reinigungsprogramm durchlaufen werden muss, kann das Geschirr von Zeit zu Zeit mit aufgeheiztem Wasser grob abgewaschen werden, sodass der grösste Teil des Schmutzes mit verhältnismässig geringem Energieaufwand entfernt werden kann. Der Benutzer kann dieses Programm beispielsweise im Abstand von zwei bis drei Tagen durchführen, wobei das Geschirr nach Beendigung des Kurzreinigungsprogramms im Bottich verbleibt. Das umfassende, energieaufwändige Reinigungsprogramm führt der Benutzer erst dann durch, wenn der Geschirrspüler vollständig mit Geschirr beladen ist. Das Heizen des Prozesswassers ermöglicht auch, hartnäckigeren Schmutz vom Geschirr zu lösen.This short cleaning program can improve hygiene in the dishwasher. Without having to go through a comprehensive cleaning program, the dishes can be roughly washed with heated water from time to time, so that most of the dirt can be removed with relatively little energy expenditure. The user can carry out this program, for example, at intervals of two to three days, with the dishes remaining in the tub after the end of the short cleaning program. The user only carries out the comprehensive, energy-intensive cleaning program when the dishwasher is fully loaded with dishes. Heating the process water also makes it possible to loosen more stubborn dirt from the dishes.
Das Prozesswasser wird während des Kurzreinigungsprogramms nicht ausgewechselt. Damit handelt es sich um ein sogenanntes Ein-Bad Verfahren.The process water is not replaced during the short cleaning program. This is a so-called one-bath process.
Auf eine nachgeschaltete Klarspülphase mit frischem Prozesswasser wird beim Kurzreinigungsprogramm verzichtet. Die Verschmutzung am Geschirr kann deshalb nicht vollständig entfernt werden. Dies ist auch nicht nötig, zumal das Kurzreinigungsprogramm lediglich dazu dient, den groben Schmutz vom Geschirr zu entfernen, um Geruchsbildungen im Bottich möglichst zu verhindern. Das Kurzreinigungsprogramm ist dafür im Verhältnis zum umfassenden Reinigungsprogramm energiesparender.There is no subsequent rinsing phase with fresh process water in the short cleaning program. The dirt on the dishes can therefore not be completely removed. This is also not necessary, especially since the short cleaning program only serves to remove the coarse dirt from the dishes in order to prevent odors from forming in the tub as far as possible. The short cleaning program is more energy-efficient than the comprehensive cleaning program.
Die Steuerung ist dazu ausgestaltet, das Prozesswasser in der Heizphase zumindest teilweise auf mindestens 35°C, insbesondere mindestens 45°C, insbesondere mindestens 50°C, aufzuheizen. Je höher die Temperatur gewählt wird, umso einfacher lassen sich auch Fette am Geschirr entfernen. Dadurch kann die Geruchs- und Schimmelbildung noch besser vermieden werden.The controller is designed to the process water in the heating phase at least partially to at least 35 ° C, in particular at least 45 ° C, in particular at least 50°C. The higher the temperature selected, the easier it is to remove grease from the dishes. As a result, the formation of odors and mold can be avoided even better.
Im Weiteren kann das Kurzreinigungsprogramm eine einzige Heizphase aufweisen. D.h. die Heizvorrichtung wird während des Kurzreinigungsprogramm nur einmal an- und ausgeschaltet. Kurze Unterbrechungen sind möglich. Dadurch wird das Prozesswasser mit einem möglichst geringen Energieaufwand geheizt.Furthermore, the short cleaning program can have a single heating phase. This means that the heating device is only switched on and off once during the short cleaning program. Brief interruptions are possible. As a result, the process water is heated with as little energy as possible.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung kann die Steuerung derart ausgestaltet sein, dass während der Heizphase eine Temperatur des Prozesswassers monoton, insbesondere streng monoton, erhöht wird.In a preferred embodiment, the controller can be designed in such a way that a temperature of the process water is increased monotonically, in particular strictly monotonically, during the heating phase.
Mit Vorteil kann die Steuerung dazu ausgestaltet sein, dem Prozesswasser im Kurzreinigungsprogramm Reinigungsmittel zuzusetzen. Dadurch kann die Verschmutzung des Geschirrs noch besser entfernt werden.Advantageously, the controller can be designed to add cleaning agents to the process water in the short cleaning program. This allows the dirt on the dishes to be removed even better.
Im Weiteren kann das Kurzreinigungsprogramm eine Betriebslänge von maximal 20 Minuten, insbesondere maximal 15 Minuten, insbesondere maximal 10 Minuten, aufweisen, und/oder die Steuerung kann dazu ausgestaltet sein, die Heizvorrichtung im Kurzreinigungsprogramm während mindestens 5 Minuten, insbesondere mindestens 7 Minuten, und/oder während maximal 10 Minuten, insbesondere maximal 8 Minuten zu betreiben. Aufgrund der kurzen Betriebslänge und durch den kurzen Betrieb der Heizvorrichtung verbraucht das Kurzreinigungsprogramm verhältnismässig wenig Energie.Furthermore, the short cleaning program can have an operating length of a maximum of 20 minutes, in particular a maximum of 15 minutes, in particular a maximum of 10 minutes, and/or the controller can be designed to switch the heating device on in the short cleaning program for at least 5 minutes, in particular at least 7 minutes, and/or or to operate for a maximum of 10 minutes, in particular a maximum of 8 minutes. Due to the short operating time and the short operation of the heating device, the short cleaning program consumes relatively little energy.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung kann der Geschirrspüler eine Frischwasserzufuhr aufweisen, wobei die Steuerung derart ausgestaltet ist, dass die Frischwasserzufuhr im Kurzreinigungsprogramm während eines einzigen Zeitabschnitts, insbesondere zu Beginn des Kurzreinigungsprogramms, geöffnet ist.In a preferred embodiment, the dishwasher can have a fresh water supply, with the controller being designed in such a way that the fresh water supply is open during a single time segment in the short cleaning program, in particular at the beginning of the short cleaning program.
Mit Vorteil kann der Geschirrspüler eine Türe mit einem Türaufstosser aufweisen, wobei die Steuerung dazu ausgestaltet ist, die Türe unmittelbar oder mittelbar nach Beendigung der Heizphase mittels dem Türaufstosser aufzustossen, und/oder wobei die Steuerung dazu ausgestaltet ist, im Kurzreinigungsprogramm nur einen Bodenbereich zu reinigen.Advantageously, the dishwasher can have a door with a door opener, the controller is designed to push open the door immediately or indirectly after the end of the heating phase by means of the door opener, and/or wherein the controller is designed to clean only one floor area in the short cleaning program.
Wird im Kurzreinigungsprogramm nur der Bodenbereich des Geschirrspülers gereinigt, so wird darauf verzichtet, das Geschirr über Sprüharme zu besprühen. Dabei wird davon ausgegangen, dass der grösste Teil der Verschmutzung von selbst vom Geschirr abfällt und im Bodenbereich landet. Deshalb genügt eine Reinigung des Bodenbereichs, um die Geruchs- und Schimmelbildung möglichst zu verhindern.If only the bottom area of the dishwasher is cleaned in the short cleaning program, the dishes are not sprayed with spray arms. It is assumed that most of the dirt falls off the dishes by itself and ends up on the floor. It is therefore sufficient to clean the floor area in order to prevent the formation of odors and mold as much as possible.
Im Weiteren kann die Steuerung dazu ausgestaltet sein, über eine Ausgabevorrichtung in Abhängigkeit einer Anzahl registrierter Türöffnungen, einer gemessenen Zeitdauer seit einem letzten Betrieb eines Geschirrspülprogramms, insbesondere des Kurzreinigungsprogramms, und/oder eines mittels einer Geruchssensorik detektierten Geruchsniveaus, eine Empfehlung zum Starten des Kurzreinigungsprogramms auszugeben. Beispielsweise wird dem Benutzer über eine optische Anzeige mitgeteilt, dass er das Kurzreinigungsprogramm durchführen soll. Optional ist es auch möglich, dass das Kurzreinigungsprogramm von der Steuerung automatisch gestartet wird.Furthermore, the controller can be configured to output a recommendation for starting the short cleaning program via an output device depending on a number of registered door openings, a measured length of time since the last operation of a dishwashing program, in particular the short cleaning program, and/or an odor level detected by means of an odor sensor system . For example, the user is informed via a visual display that he should carry out the short cleaning program. Optionally, it is also possible for the short cleaning program to be started automatically by the control.
In einer besonderen Ausführung kann die Steuerung neben dem Kurzreinigungsprogramm ein Hauptreinigungsprogramm aufweisen, welches eine Hauptreinigungsphase und eine Klarspülphase umfasst. Die Steuerung ist dazu ausgestaltet, zwischen Hauptreinigungsphase und Klarspülphase das Prozesswasser zu ersetzen, und insbesondere während der Klarspülphase dem Prozesswasser Klarspülmittel beizumischen.In a special embodiment, the controller can have a main cleaning program in addition to the short cleaning program, which includes a main cleaning phase and a final-rinse phase. The controller is designed to replace the process water between the main cleaning phase and the final-rinse phase, and in particular to add final-rinse agent to the process water during the final-rinse phase.
Im Weiteren kann die Steuerung dazu ausgestaltet sein, in einem letzten Schritt im Kurzreinigungsprogramm mittels einer Trocknungsvorrichtung zu trocknen.Furthermore, the controller can be designed to dry in a last step in the short cleaning program using a drying device.
Die eingangs erwähnte Aufgabe wird auch von einem Verfahren gemäss dem unabhängigen Verfahrensanspruch gelöst. Demgemäss handelt es sich um ein Verfahren zur Reinigung von Geschirr in einem Geschirrspüler. Das Verfahren umfasst einen Bottich zur Aufnahme des Geschirrs, eine Heizvorrichtung zum Heizen von Prozesswasser und eine Steuerung aufweisend ein Kurzreinigungsprogramm zur Reinigung des Geschirrs. Das Prozesswasser wird während des gesamten Kurzreinigungsprogramms nicht ersetzt und es wird mittels der Heizvorrichtung während einer Heizphase geheizt. Das Prozesswasser wird im Kurzreinigungsprogramm während der Heizphase zumindest teilweise auf mindestens 35° geheizt.The object mentioned at the outset is also achieved by a method according to the independent method claim. Accordingly, it is a method for cleaning dishes in a dishwasher. The method includes a tub for accommodating the dishes, a heating device for heating process water and a controller having a short cleaning program for cleaning the dishes. The process water is not replaced during the entire short cleaning program and it is heated by the heating device during a heating phase. In the short cleaning program, the process water is at least partially heated to at least 35° during the heating phase.
Insbesondere wird das Prozesswasser im Kurzreinigungsprogramm während der Heizphase zumindest teilweise auf mindestens 45°C, insbesondere mindestens 50°C, aufgeheizt.In particular, the process water in the short cleaning program is at least partially heated to at least 45°C, in particular at least 50°C, during the heating phase.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform kann das Kurzreinigungsprogramm eine einzige Heizphase aufweisen und/oder wobei während der Heizphase eine Temperatur des Prozesswassers monoton, insbesondere streng monoton, erhöht wird.In a preferred embodiment, the short cleaning program can have a single heating phase and/or a temperature of the process water being increased monotonically, in particular strictly monotonically, during the heating phase.
Im Weiteren kann das Kurzreinigungsprogramm maximal 20 Minuten, insbesondere maximal 15 Minuten, insbesondere maximal 10 Minuten, dauern und/oder die Heizvorrichtung kann im Kurzreinigungsprogramm während mindestens 5 Minuten, insbesondere mindestens 7 Minuten, und/oder während maximal 10 Minuten, insbesondere maximal 8 Minuten betrieben werden.Furthermore, the short cleaning program can last a maximum of 20 minutes, in particular a maximum of 15 minutes, in particular a maximum of 10 minutes, and/or the heating device can be used in the short cleaning program for at least 5 minutes, in particular at least 7 minutes, and/or for a maximum of 10 minutes, in particular a maximum of 8 minutes operate.

Frischwasserzufuhr 11 zugeführt. Die Gesamtwassermenge beträgt beispielsweise zwischen 2.5bis 6 Liter. - Sobald das Prozesswasser fertig eingelassen wurde, aktiviert die
Steuerung 9die Heizvorrichtung 7, um das Prozesswasser zu heizen. Gleichzeitig pumpt diePumpe 5 das Prozesswasser im Prozesswasserkreislauf, sodass das Prozesswasser einerseits ander Heizvorrichtung 7 vorbeigeführt wird und andererseits das Prozesswasser auf das Geschirr 2, 3, 4 aufgesprüht wird. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt kann auch vom Reinigungsmitteltank 13 dem Prozesswasser Reinigungsmittel zugeführt werden.mittels den Sprühmitteln - Das Prozesswasser wird ca.
während 8bis 10 Minuten geheizt bis eine Prozesswassertemperatur von 50°C erreicht ist. Die Prozesswassertemperatur wird dabei monoton bzw. kontinuierlich erhöht. - Unmittelbar nach Erreichen der Maximaltemperatur aktiviert die
Steuerung 9die Ablaufpumpe 8, um das Prozesswasser aus dem Bottich abzulassen. - Nachdem das Prozesswasser vollständig abgelassen wurde, wird die Türe des Geschirrspülers aufgestossen und das Kurzreinigungsprogramm ist beendet. Alternativ könnte die Türe auch geschlossen bleiben und das Geschirr würde mittels einer Trocknungsvorrichtung getrocknet werden.
- In a first phase of the short cleaning program, approximately during the first minute, the process water is fed to the tub via the
fresh water supply 11 . The total amount of water is between 2.5 and 6 liters, for example. - Once the process water has finished being admitted, the
controller 9 activates theheater 7 to heat the process water. At the same time, thepump 5 pumps the process water in the process water circuit so that the process water is guided past theheating device 7 on the one hand and the process water is sprayed onto the dishes by the spray means 2, 3, 4 on the other. At this point in time, cleaning agent can also be supplied to the process water from thecleaning agent tank 13 . - The process water is heated for approx. 8 to 10 minutes until a process water temperature of 50°C is reached. The process water temperature is increased monotonically or continuously.
- Immediately after reaching the maximum temperature, the
controller 9 activates thedrain pump 8 to drain the process water from the tub. - After the process water has been completely drained, the dishwasher door is pushed open and the short cleaning program ends. Alternatively, the door could remain closed and that Dishes would be dried by means of a drying device.
In einer besonderen Ausführung des Geschirrspülers, bei welchem während des Kurzreinigungsprogramms nur der Bodenbereich 6, aber nicht das Geschirr, gereinigt wird, kann das Prozesswasser mit geringer Geschwindigkeit lediglich durch das untere Sprühmittel 2 geführt werden.In a special embodiment of the dishwasher, in which only the
