The present invention relates to a polygonal automatic dishwashing apparatus particularly suitable for installing a conveyor having a long elliptical track in which a plurality of dish racks are installed at regular intervals in a narrow space (dishwasher) to the extent that it is difficult to accommodate.

As prior art documents known in the field of automatic dishwashers, there are ⓐ Korean Patent Publication No. 1998-65260 and ⓑ No. 1999-30438 ⓒ Registration No. 10-1052751.

The prior art ⓐ is that the tableware and the plate placed on the tableware input device installed such that a caterpillar consisting of the upper tableware input track and the lower no-load return track pass through the tableware separation device are separated into dishes and plates while passing through the tableware separation device. After that, the dishes and plates are separated and washed, dried, and taken out while passing through a washing device and a drying device sequentially through a separate transfer device for dishes and plates.

The prior art ⓑ is capable of washing not only tableware, but also fruit and vegetable roots, etc., and when the object to be washed on the conveyor belt is detected by the sensor, the conveyor belt is operated by the motor to drop the object to be washed on the deposit. It is a dishwasher that removes foreign substances from the surface of the object to be cleaned, sprays high-pressure water onto the object to be washed in a subsequent step, sterilizes it by rinsing with ozone water, and then carries out antibacterial treatment after drying with hot or cold air. .

These prior technologies are the structure of a conveyor belt, in which the conveying platform is a conventional caterpillar type, and the object to be cleaned is transported in a straight line from the input step to the discharge step, and the object to be washed falls downward in the discharge step. In order not to damage the object to be washed, or an auxiliary device to receive the object to be washed is required, and in order to re-wash incompletely washed dishes or plates, it is necessary to start over from the artificial input stage, which is actually cumbersome and inconvenient.

In addition, the entire conveying means from the input of dishes and plates to drying and taking out is of the endless track type. It is a simple operation that terminates the washing operation after leaving the upper trajectory used for the actual transport of dishes and plates. It is unsuitable for large dining rooms where large amounts of utensils must be washed quickly and continuously.

In addition, in a caterpillar with a tray installed for the purpose of transporting dishes or trays, it is not possible to lift the trays, so after washing the dishes or trays transferred on the trays, they fell to the bottom plate of the tracker during the drying process. Cleaning after washing is very inconvenient, as it is difficult to remove foreign substances.

In addition, these dishwashers are large in scale, making it difficult to manufacture and install, and from the perspective of consumers, the economic burden is also high.

The prior art ⓒ is a technology that has been previously applied by the applicant of the present application, and was invented to solve the problems encountered in the prior art ⓐ and ⓑ. The first and second washing parts, detergent spraying parts, and rinsing on a track type track It is based on an automatic dishwasher with a long elliptical track so that washing and additional washing and drying process by washing and detergent can be carried out in the order of washing and drying using hot air. Long ellipse that can continuously rotate the track as long as the track length is long and the placed dishes are not lifted out of the track carrying the rack orbit-It is made horizontally so that the object to be washed once placed on the dish rack can be repeatedly rotated and washed. After finishing the dishwashing by installing a foldable dish rack on an endless chain that revolves around a caterpillar on the track, fold the dish rack upright to clean foreign substances that have fallen on the bottom plate of the track. It is a comfortable, so-called round type automatic dishwasher.

According to the prior art, the long ellipse-horizontal track is suitable for a rectangular planar dishwasher (space) with a long straight track and a narrow track width.

However, the track width is the same as the above case, and the track turning direction is very short compared to the above case, and there is a problem that it is inappropriate and impossible to install the long ellipse-horizontal track structure in a narrow dishwasher. There is a need for improvement of a new technology structure that can be implemented in.
