Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for dispensing cleaning agents according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Dosing devices are already known in dishwashers in which an intermediate chamber or dosing chamber is connected downstream of a storage chamber for rinse aid.
  • a double valve tappet actuates the valve function in the opening between the storage chamber and the metering chamber and the outlet opening of the metering chamber into the washing area of the dishwasher in an opposite manner. This means that when the electromagnetic valve provided for actuation is energized once, the opening between the storage chamber and the metering chamber is opened and the outlet opening of the metering chamber is closed.
  • the metering chamber When changing over to the currentless state, the metering chamber is then closed off from the storage chamber and the outlet opening is opened so that the rinse aid flows into the washing compartment.
  • This arrangement of the two chambers serves to specify a fixed dosing volume with the aid of the predetermined volume of the dosing chamber, rinse aid also being fed into the washing area of the dishwasher each time current is applied to the electromagnetic coil.
  • Dosing devices of this type are usually combined with a chamber or store for receiving or storing cleaning agents.
  • This chamber or this store is opened for adding the cleaning agent into the rinsing process with the aid of a flap or a lid which is locked in the closed position and is opened by spring pressure after an unlocking. Unlocking takes place with the same electromagnetic coil with which the rinse aid dosage is carried out in order to save costs.
  • dosing devices for dishwashers which have a sliding cover instead of a flap as a closure cover, which carries out a linear movement to a plane parallel to the boundary wall of the liquid cleaner container, but at the end of the closing process, a lowering for sealing the Lid completed (cf. EP 0780 087 B1 ).
  • these dosing devices avoid narrowing the storage space in the dishwasher due to the movement space of the flap to be kept free.
  • a disadvantage of the latter devices is, among other things, that a comparatively complex and fault-prone, in particular canting or hooking, guidance of the sliding cover and a relatively large metering device are realized.
  • a metering device which comprises a pivotable rotating lid (cf. DE 102 44 678 ), which pivots about an axis of rotation approximately parallel to the housing or to the door, a lowering being provided at the end of the closing process to seal the accumulator.
  • a pivotable rotating lid cf. DE 102 44 678
  • the rotating lid is relatively easily impaired or damaged during operation. Users also find the twisting to operate the rotating lid less ergonomic and aesthetically pleasing compared to the above sliding lid.
  • a dosing device according to the preamble of claim 1 is ready DE 10 2005 025 391 A1 known.
  • At least one water guiding element for guiding and / or guiding water in and / or in the reservoir and in particular to the base wall of the reservoir is arranged in the device.
  • water in particular the spray arm (s) of the dishwasher, not only reaches / flies through the opening of the reservoir directly to the base wall of the reservoir, but is caught by an advantageous part or a collecting surface of the device and by means of the water guiding element is guided / guided into the store and / or in the store preferably along the side wall towards the base wall.
  • wash-out water is additionally generated / usable, so that the cleaner is better washed out / dissolved.
  • less soluble cleaning agents can also be used and / or shorter washing-out times or phases can be realized.
  • water in particular splash water, spray arm water or operating / cleaning water
  • water is advantageously collected or collected and guided / guided to an advantageous location by means of the water guiding element according to the invention, so that the cleaning agent, in particular Solids cleaner or a cleaning tab or the like, is washed out / rinsed out of the device according to the invention from the store and enters the interior or cleaning space of the dishwasher.
  • the cleaning agent is completely washed out or dissolved and, by means of the advantageous pump system, is sprayed or sprayed to the dishes, in particular is sprayed.
  • the water guiding element is designed as a funnel and / or comprises two water guiding elements / structures arranged at an acute angle to one another, which act like a funnel or conduct water from a larger cross section to a smaller cross section or to an outlet.
  • a water inlet or an opening or recess is arranged on the side wall of the reservoir, so that in particular (captured / collected or directed according to the invention) water is advantageously fed to the reservoir, especially the side wall of the reservoir.
  • the devices are arranged in the door so that the operating / washing-out position is realized when the door is closed, i.e. the base wall is arranged / aligned essentially vertically.
  • Detergent is usually filled in with the door open, so that in this filling position the base wall is / are arranged in the bottom or essentially in a horizontal orientation and the side wall / side walls are arranged laterally.
  • this water inlet of the side wall of the reservoir in the operating position or in the washing-out position of the device is arranged on an upper side or an upper side wall of the reservoir.
  • the water inlet in the operating or washing-out position or with the door closed, is arranged at the top or an upper side wall in the vertical direction, or this side wall comprises the water inlet, to which the water is advantageously supplied by means of the water guiding element.
  • the water guiding element is arranged on the side wall and / or base wall on the side wall and / or base wall. In this way it can be achieved that the water supplied to the side of the storage does not drip into the cleaning room, but rather flows / is guided / guided along the side wall or along the wall / surface into the storage, preferably along the side wall to the base wall and also along the base wall is directed.
  • a flow path can be defined or guided almost completely by means of the water guiding element, the flow path according to the invention from the point of impact to the surface of the device or from the point of collecting / catching the water (as continuously as possible) to preferably the base wall is trained.
  • the cleaning agent or tab / solid-state cleaner to which this usually adheres / sticks, was placed on the base wall.
  • the cleaner, particularly the tab is advantageously dissolved or washed out with a relatively large amount of water by the water guide element (s).
  • At least one spacing element is preferably arranged for at least partially spacing the cleaning agent from the wall, in particular the base wall, so that in particular at least partially there is a cavity between the wall and the cleaning agent. This ensures that water flows / flows "behind” or “below” the cleaner, especially the tab, and, if necessary, detachably / rinses off the detergent / tab that is stuck on.
  • the side wall and / or base wall advantageously comprises at least the water guiding element and / or the spacer element.
  • at least the base wall and / or the upper and lower side wall in the operating / washing-out position or with the door closed, ie above and below on the side each comprise a water guide element and / or a largely continuous water guide element.
  • the side wall is preferably angled at an acute angle / inclined and an advantageous supply / supply can be realized and below or the lower side wall with the water guide element / spacer element in the event that the cleaner / tab falls / slides down on this side wall, that water the cleaner / tab in advantageously washed and thus washed out / dissolves.
  • the spacer element is preferably at least partially designed as a water guiding element, in particular on the “lower” side wall and / or the base wall.
  • water guiding elements and / or several spacing elements are provided, in particular several water guiding elements and / or spacing elements are at least partially as ribs and / or knobs and / or dams and / or elevations and / or (open or closed) Channels and / or grooves and / or grooves and / or depressions formed.
  • This is e.g. the surface tension and / or capillary force of the water are advantageously used for conduction or adhesion.
  • the water guiding element is at least partially designed as a projection of the reservoir and / or the side wall.
  • Water which flows / flows largely vertically from above to the reservoir is “caught” and diverted in an advantageous manner, in particular into the reservoir or directed to / along the side wall.
  • the side wall and / or base wall and at least one or two spacer elements and the cleaning agent at least partially form a closed water channel for the passage of water. This advantageously removes the cleaner / tab from below or loosens the bond.
  • a device according to the invention is shown, wherein a memory 1 is provided for receiving cleaning agents.
  • This detergent is in the dishwasher during the cleaning phase Cleaning space for the dishes is added in a controlled manner.
  • a cover not shown, is opened so that the cleaning agent can run out of the reservoir 1 or be rinsed out.
  • a latching device or a rotary latch not shown, is actuated for this purpose, so that a tension spring or the like effects the opening movement of the cover.
  • the memory has a base wall 8 and side walls 7.
  • an inlet 6 is provided on an upper side or an upper side wall 7 of the reservoir 1 for water flowing down or flowing vertically from above.
  • a funnel 4 is provided on the upper side or above the upper side wall 7 of the store 1; this is realized by means of a housing wall with two dams 5 or water guiding elements 5 or elevations 5. Water that sprays / flies from the spray arms to the device or into the store 1 and additionally above the store 1 onto the device is collected and supplied to the store 1 in an advantageous manner.
  • the base wall 8 in turn has knobs 9 or a profile / elevations, so that the water of the upper side wall 7 can flow "behind” a cleaning tab and can rinse / dissolve it from "behind". Due to the small contact area, ie "tips" of the knobs 9 or ribs 9 of the Base wall 8, a very quick dissolution takes place, even when the tab is glued on.
  • the knobs 9 or ribs 9 of the base wall 8 are advantageously arranged or aligned so that the water is advantageously distributed.
  • FIG 3 three separate flow paths of water are indicated by way of example, which is collected according to the invention (point of impact), is led / guided to / in the store 1 and flows out (with dissolved cleaning agent) (arrowhead).
  • water flowing down the door that is to say water flowing down from above and flowing to the device, can be collected to and from the funnel 4 and can be passed to the reservoir 1 in an advantageous manner.
  • water is also collected which strikes the wall / door outside the device, which means a significant increase in the amount of water for detaching / washing out the cleaner / tab.
