Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dishwasher comprising a cleaning agent box.
  • the cleaning of items is performed by mixing detergents in powder, liquid/gel, or tablet form, as well as rinse aid and similar cleaning agents which prevent water stains etc. from remaining on the dishes, with water sprayed on the items.
  • cleaning agent boxes are placed on the inner surface of the door and comprise a lid such that the cleaning agents placed therein can be included in the washing process in a controlled manner.
  • the cleaning agent is introduced into the washing process at the appropriate time and amount according to the selected washing program.
  • German Patent Application No. DE102013113845 a dosing unit is disclosed, which is disposed on the washing rack of the dishwasher.
  • a movement mechanism which is disposed on the line through which the washing water is delivered from the mains to the washing tub and which has a piston one end of which gets into contact with a cleaning agent box where tablet detergent is used.
  • the movement mechanism which is activated when the water coming from the line moves the piston, the tablet detergent in the cleaning agent box is transferred to the washing tub.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a dishwasher having a cleaning agent box.
  • the dishwasher realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises a washing tub; at least one rack which carries the items placed therein; a water line which provides the delivery of water into the washing tub; a cylinder which is provided on the water line and through which the water in the water line flows; a piston which is disposed in the cylinder; further comprising a frame; a carrier which is fitted into the frame and which has at least one first hole on the base thereof; a dispenser which is attached to the base of the carrier, which has at least a second hole at the base thereof and which moves with the piston relative to the frame and the carrier; and a cleaning agent box which enables the cleaning agent to be carried when the first and second holes are not aligned, and enables the cleaning agent to be poured into the washing tub when the first and second holes are aligned.
  • the water passing into the cylinder with the pressure of the water flowing in the water line hits the piston and pushes the piston forward such that the dispenser is moved by the piston, and the carrier and the dispenser, which only serve to carry the cleaning agent placed thereon since the first and second holes are not aligned before the movement, enable the cleaning agent to be poured into the washing tub as the first and second holes are aligned.
  • the frame supporting the carrier and the dispenser has two side walls and is in the form of a U.
  • the dishwasher comprises two slides which are disposed on opposite side walls of the frame, in a horizontal plane along the side wall, whereon the edges of the carrier are seated.
  • the carrier moves by sliding back and forth relative to the frame. Consequently, the user is enabled to easily and quickly put the cleaning agent into the cleaning agent box by pulling the carrier towards himself/herself.
  • the carrier since the carrier does not contact the piston, the carrier does not move with the movement of the piston, but only moves back and forth relative to the frame as a result of the force applied by the user from outside.
  • the dishwasher comprises at least two first holders on top of each of the side walls of the frame, which enable the latter to be attached to the base wires of the rack.
  • the first holders enable the frame to be fixed to the rack and thus the cleaning agent box to be attached.
  • the dishwasher comprises two parallel side edges which are provided on the carrier, and a first base which is positioned between the side edges and which has at least one first hole thereon.
  • the dishwasher comprises at least two L-shaped second holders which are placed opposite to each other, which extend parallel to each other on the lower surface of the first base, and which enable the dispenser to be attached on the carrier and move back and forth.
  • the dishwasher comprises a wall which is provided on the side of the carrier facing the front side and a handle which is provided on said wall.
  • the handle is held by the user, thus enabling the carrier to move back and forth on the frame.
  • the carrier moves on the frame like a drawer.
  • the dishwasher comprises a second base in the form of a plate which is provided on the dispenser and which has at least one second hole thereon. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, there are a total of eight second holes placed in two rows, four in each row, on the second base.
  • the dishwasher comprises a contact surface which is provided on the dispenser, which extends perpendicular to the second base and where the piston contacts the dispenser.
  • the dishwasher comprises at least one stopper which is provided on the dispenser, which extends perpendicularly to the lower surface of the second base and which forms a protrusion on the lower surface of the second base.
  • the stopper, the carrier and the dispenser When pulled outwards by the user inside the frame, the stopper, the carrier and the dispenser are prevented from hitting the frame and from being pulled further to be detached from the frame.
  • the first and second holes are in the form of a quadrangle with rounded edges.
  • the dispenser is placed under the carrier by being slidably inserted into the second holders. Then, with the dispenser on the carrier, the two sides of the carrier are fitted onto the slides and slid on the frame.
  • the frame, the carrier and the dispenser are attached to the base of the rack by means of the first holders, and the cleaning agent box is fixed to the rack. In this case, the end of the piston contacts the contact surface.
  • the first and second holes are not aligned and are in the closed position.
  • the cleaning agent loaded into the cleaning agent box by the user is carried.
  • the washing program starts, the water coming from the water line passes into the cylinder and pushes the piston in the cylinder.
  • the piston contacting the dispenser through the contact surface pushes the dispenser and slides the same forward on the second holders relative to the carrier.
  • the first base and the second base move relative to each other and as a result of this movement, when the stopper hits the frame, the dispenser reaches its maximum position and the first hole and the second hole align with each other so as to shift to the open position, and the entire cleaning agent loaded into the cleaning agent box is poured into the washing tub. Dosing time is adjusted or gradual dosing is provided with the help of a spring placed on the piston.
  • the user pulls the handle and slides the carrier and the dispenser attached to the same forward on the frame. Since the first base and the second base do not move relative to each other in this position, the first and second holes are in the closed position and are not aligned.
  • the cleaning agent is loaded into the cleaning agent box by the user, the latter reaching the initial position by being pushed again by means of the handle with the cleaning agent loaded on the carrier and the dispenser. At the same time, the contact surface also bears against the piston.
