Description

  • The present invention relates to a dishwasher comprising a detergent dispenser.
  • In dishwashers, the cleaning process is realized by mixing the water and the detergent so as to be sprayed onto the dirty kitchen items. The kitchen items are placed onto the racks by the user. Generally, detergent in liquid or solid form is loaded into a detergent box provided on the door. The detergent boxes comprise a lid in order to prevent the uncontrolled scattering of the detergent into the washing tub. Thus, the user closes the lid of the detergent box after adding the detergent. During the washing process, the lid is opened so as to deliver the detergent into the washing tub. It is electronically determined when to open the lid and when to deliver the detergent into the washing tub. At a predetermined time of the washing program, the detergent box is energized by electrical components such as solenoid coil or thermal pusher/puller provided thereon. Thus, the lid of the detergent box is opened and the detergent is delivered into the washing tub at the correct time. However, the use of electrical components increases both the costs and the risk of malfunction. Moreover, the detergent boxes used on the door directly face the rack when the door is closed. This causes the rack area to decrease when the size of the detergent box is increased. Therefore, the loading volume decreases, causing inconvenience of use.
