A ratio of a maximum inner diameter of the annular cavity 170 to an inner diameter of the throat channel 810 may be selected and constructed based on actual requirements.
  • the annular cavity 170 is formed at the periphery of the throat portion 800. In this way, after a water flow flows into the throat channel 810 from the first channel 110, a pressure of the water flow at the throat channel 810 is increased and a flow rate thereof is decreased. After the water flow flows into the annular cavity 170, the pressure of the water flow is decreased instantaneously and the flow rate thereof is increased. Therefore, a negative pressure is generated in the annular cavity 170. In this way, the residual water at the residual water outlet is sucked into the annular cavity 170 through the flow diverting channel 120 under the negative pressure, and therefore the residual water flows into the water drainage channel 410 along with the tap water to be discharged from the water drainage pipe.
  • the annular cavity 170 is formed at the periphery of the throat portion 800, and therefore the flow diverting channel 120 is in communication with the annular cavity 170, and the negative pressure is generated in the annular cavity 170.
  • the ratio of the maximum inner diameter of the annular cavity 170 to the inner diameter of the throat channel 810 is greater than or equal to 2, and is smaller than or equal to 5. In this way, the negative pressure generated in the annular cavity 170 and the capacity of the residual water can be improved to the greatest extent.
  • the efficiency and effect of adsorbing the residual water by the residual water removal apparatus 10 are improved to the greatest extent.
  • the annular cavity 170 is formed in the water inlet body 100.
  • the flow diverting channel 120 and the throat channel 810 are also formed in the water inlet body 100.
  • the annular cavity 170, the flow diverting channel 120 and the throat channel 810 may be disposed in the water drainage body 200.
  • the annular cavity 170 comprises a tapered section 171, and the tapered section 171 has an inner diameter gradually decreasing from the first channel 110 towards the second channel 210. Therefore, the annular cavity 170 is formed as the tapered section 171 as a whole, and the annular cavity 170 has an inner diameter gradually decreasing from the first channel 110 towards the second channel 210. A part of the annular cavity 170 may be formed as the tapered section 171. In an embodiment, a section of the annular cavity 170 close to the second channel 210 is formed as the tapered section 171. The annular cavity 170 comprises the tapered section 171, and therefore the tapered section 171 is configured to guide the residual water and tap water in the annular cavity 170. Thus, a flow rate of the water flow flowing from the annular cavity 170 to the second channel 210 is accelerated, to further improve the efficiency of removing the residual water by the residual water device 10.
  • the present disclosure further provides a dishwasher.
  • the dishwasher comprises a water drainage device and the residual water removal apparatus 10.
  • the water drainage device comprises a water cup, and the cup has a water inlet and a residual water outlet.
  • the specific structure of the residual water removal apparatus 10 refers to the above embodiments.
  • the water inlet body 100 of the residual water removal apparatus 10 is in communication with the water inlet, and the communication between the first channel 110 and the second channel 210 of the residual water removal apparatus 10 is in communication with the residual water outlet through the flow diverting channel 120. Since all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments are used in the dishwasher, the dishwasher has at least all the beneficial effects of the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated herein.
  • the dishwasher further comprises a body.
  • the body comprises an inner container configured to mount a bowl.
  • a water outlet groove is defined by the inner container.
  • the water cup is disposed at a bottom of the water outlet groove, and is configured to collect sewage after the bowl is cleaned.
  • a residual water outlet is provided at a bottom of the water cup.
  • the residual water outlet is connected to a water drainage pipe, and the water drainage joint connector of the residual water removal apparatus 10 may be in communication with the water drainage pipe.
  • a drainage pump is provided, and has an end connected to the water drainage pipe and another end in communication with the residual water outlet of the water cup. After dishes are washed by the dishwasher, the sewage enters the water cup.
  • the drainage pump starts to operate, and water in the water cup is directly discharged through the water drainage pipe.
  • the drainage pump cannot completely discharge the water in the water cup, and a small amount of residual water remains in the water cup.
  • the drainage pump stops operating.
  • the water inlet pipe is arranged towards the water inlet connector 300. After the water flow passes through the water inlet connector 300, the water inlet body 100, the water drainage connector 400, and the water drainage body 200, the negative pressure generated at the communication between the first channel 110 and the second channel 210 can suck away the residual water through the flow diverting 120.
  • the residual water between the drainage pump and the bottom of the water cup can be thoroughly removed.
