Abstract
The present invention relates to a dishwasher (1) comprising a tub (2) wherein the washing process is realized; a sump (3) wherein the washing water is collected; an upper rack (4) and a lower rack (5) that are disposed in the tub (2) and whereon the items to be washed are placed; a spray arm (7) that is disposed at the underside of the upper rack (4) and that has nozzles (6) providing the delivery of water mostly onto the items to be washed in the upper rack (4) and partially onto the items to be washed in the lower rack (5), and a circulation pump (8) that delivers the water in the sump (3) to the spray arm (7).
Description
The present invention relates to a dishwasher with decreased water consumption.
In dishwashers, the washing process is generally realized by spraying water from the spray arms disposed under the racks onto the items placed into the upper and lower racks. The component spraying water is called spray arm in the state of the art. Washing water delivered from the circulation pump to the spray arms with a certain pressure and flow rate is spray from the spray arm nozzles as water jet, thus providing the rotation of the spray arms and the washing of the dishes. In widely used spray arms, the spray arm of the lower rack washes the lower rack while the spray arm of the upper rack washes the upper rack. In some embodiments, nozzles are provided at the underside of the spray arm of the upper rack and thus, the spray arm of the upper rack contributes to the washing of the dishes in the lower rack. The amount of water sent to the upper spray arm so as to support the washing in the lower rack can be controlled only by decreasing the number of lower nozzles; however, delivery of excessive water to the lower rack with the effect of gravity cannot be prevented. More than the amount of water required for washing the upper rack with the desired performance is delivered to the upper spray arm, thus increasing water consumption.
In the United States Patent Application No. US2015090306 (A1), a spray control assembly in a dishwasher is disclosed.
In the European Patent Application No. EP2974644 (A1), a dishwasher comprising a spray arm composed of different partitions is disclosed.
In the International Patent Application No. WO2015009916 (A1), a dishwasher is disclosed, wherein the washing and rinsing steps are realized by means of the washing water flow supplied from two different channels on the single spray arm.
The aim of the present invention is the realization of a dishwasher with improved washing efficiency wherein the washing water is delivered to the spray arm in a controlled manner, thus providing savings in water consumption.
In the dishwasher realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, the spray arm spraying water onto the upper rack and partially onto the lower rack so as to provide the washing of the dishes is divided into two partitions, wherein the water does not mix, as an upper receptacle and a lower receptacle by means of a partition wall. The water sent to the spray arm by means of the circulation pump is guided by a valve. The valve enables the water sent to the spray arm to be guided one by one in predetermined times and amounts to the upper receptacle for washing the upper rack and to the lower receptacle for washing the lower rack.
The washing water guided by the valve is delivered to the upper and lower receptacles of the spray arm by means of a water delivery line composed of a vertical supply tube and a horizontal connection tube. The water delivery line comprises ducts that are disposed one within the other or side by side and that extend from inside the supply tube and the connection tube up to the spray arm. The water is delivered to the upper receptacle by means of the first duct and to the lower receptacle by means of the second duct. The valve is designed so as to separately guide water to the above-mentioned ducts positioned one within the other or side by side.
In the dishwasher of the present invention, by separating the water delivered to the spray arm and washing the upper rack from the water washing the lower rack, washing performance is increased, providing savings in water consumption.
