Description

具有无线动力喷洒组件的洗碗器具 技术领域
本主题总体上涉及洗碗器具，并且更具体地说，涉及用于洗碗器具的喷洒组件。
背景技术
洗碗器具通常包括限定洗涤室或隔间的桶，一个或更多个搁架组件定位在其中，各种物品可以装载到该搁架组件中用于清洁。每个搁架可以包括比如举例来说尖齿的特征，该尖齿保持和定向物品以在清洁过程期间接收洗涤和冲洗流体的喷洒。待清洁的物品可以包括各种碗碟、银器和其他物件。
洗碗器具通常还设有一个或更多个喷洒组件，该喷洒组件可以将洗涤流体朝向设置在搁架组件内的物品上施加或引导，以便清洁这些物品。喷洒组件可以包括在洗涤隔间的底部处安装到桶上的下部喷洒组件、安装到上部搁架组件上的中间高度喷洒臂组件、以及在洗涤隔间的顶部处安装到桶上的顶部喷洒组件。
通常，这种喷洒组件相对于洗涤室旋转。更具体地，喷洒组件通常包括一个或更多个孔口或喷嘴，流体在压力下流过这些孔口或喷嘴，以在洗涤或冲洗循环期间向物品上提供喷洒。喷嘴的取向与排出流体的作用和反作用力相结合，致使喷洒组件的喷洒臂相对于洗涤室旋转360度，只要向喷洒臂供应充足量的一定压力的流体。
因为传统喷洒组件的运动由流体压力控制，所以很难(如果不是不可能的话)改变喷洒组件的运动路径或速度，而不影响从喷洒组件引导的流体的力。这可能会存在喷洒组件获得充足覆盖的问题。此外，因为摩擦需要被最小化以准许由流体压力控制的运动，因此喷洒组件很容易被无意中堵塞，从而防止了 运动。这对于安装在一个或更多个搁架上方的喷洒组件来说尤其如此。
因此，提供一种用于增强对覆盖或运动的控制的器具或喷洒组件将是有用的。特别地，如果能够提供这种器具或组件，而不引入额外的潜在泄漏点，这将是有利的，这种泄漏点可能是通过桶的额外机械连接而创建的。

现将详细参考本发明的实施例，其一个或更多个示例在附图中示出。每个示例是为解释本发明而提供，而不是限制本发明。事实上，对于本领域中的那些技术人员来说显而易见的是，在不脱离本发明的范围的情况下，可以在本发明中进行各种修改和变化。例如，作为一个实施例的一部分示出或描述的特征可以与另一实施例一起使用，以产生又一实施例。因此，本发明旨在覆盖落入所附权利要求及其等同物的范围内的这种修改和变化。
如本文中使用的，术语“或者”通常旨在是包含性的(即，“A或者B”是旨在意味着“A或者B或者两者”)。术语“第一”、“第二”和“第三”可以互换使用，以将一个部件与另一部件区分开来，并且不旨在表示各个部件的位置或重要性。术语“上游”和“下游”指代相对于流体路径中的流体流动的相对流动方向。例如，“上游”指代流体从其流动的流动方向，并且“下游”指代流体流向其的流动方向。
图1和2描绘了根据本公开的示例性实施例的洗碗器具100。如图1中显示，洗碗器具100包括机柜102。机柜102在其中具有桶104，该桶限定了洗涤隔间106。桶104还限定了前开口(未显示)。洗碗器具100包括门120，所述门120铰接在门120的底部122处，用于在常闭的竖直位置(图1和2中显示)和水平的打开位置之间运动，在常闭的竖直位置中，洗涤隔间106被密封关闭用于洗涤操作，水平的打开位置用于从洗碗器具100装载和卸载物品。在一些实施 例中，闩锁123用于锁定和解锁门120以用于进入洗涤隔间106。桶104还包括集液槽170，该集液槽邻近桶104的底部部分112定位，并且配置为用于在洗碗器具100的操作期间接收液体洗涤流体(例如，水、洗涤剂、洗涤流体或任何其他合适的流体)。
在某些实施例中，喷管160邻近洗碗器具100的集液槽170定位。喷管160被配置为用于将液体引导到集液槽170中。喷管160可以从例如水源(未显示)或任何其他合适的源接收液体。在替代实施例中，喷管160可以定位在洗碗器具100内的任何合适的位置(例如，使得喷管160将液体引导到桶104中)处。喷管160可以包括阀(未显示)，使得液体可以选择性地被引导到桶104中。因此，例如，在下面描述的循环期间，喷管160可以根据洗碗器具100的当前循环的要求，选择性地将水或洗涤流体引导到集液槽170中。
搁架组件130和132可以可滑动地安装在洗涤隔间106内。在一些实施例中，每个搁架组件130和132被制造成包括多个细长构件134的网格结构。搁架组件130和132中的每个搁架通常适于在延伸的装载位置(未显示)和缩回位置(图1和2中显示)之间运动，在延伸的装载位置，搁架基本上定位在洗涤隔间106外侧，在缩回位置，搁架位于洗涤隔间106内侧。银器篮(未显示)可以可移除地附接到搁架组件132，用于放置银器、用具等，否则这些银器、用具等太小而不能被搁架130和132容纳。
应当理解，本文中公开的主题不限于洗碗器具的任何特定样式、型号或配置，并且附图中描绘的实施例仅用于说明性目的。例如，代替图1中描绘的搁架130和132，洗碗器具100可以是已知的构造，该已知的构造利用从机柜中拉出的抽屉，并且可从顶部接近，用于装载和卸载物品。
在某些实施例中，洗碗器具100包括下部喷洒组件144，该下部喷洒组件可旋转地安装在洗涤隔间106的下部区域146内，并且在集液槽170上方，以便相对紧密地靠近搁架组件132旋转。附加地或替代地，中层喷洒组件148可以位于洗涤隔间106的上部区域，并且可以定位成紧密靠近上部搁架130。此外， 附加地或替代地，上部喷洒组件150可以位于上部搁架130上方。
在示例性实施例中，下部和中层喷洒组件144和148以及上部喷洒组件150由用于在桶104中循环水和洗碗机流体的流体循环组件152供给。流体循环组件152包括一个或更多个流体泵(例如，由电动泵电机242驱动的循环泵154或横流/排水泵156)。一些实施例包括至少部分地定位在集液槽170内的循环泵154和定位在循环泵154下方与集液槽170流体连通的排水泵156。此外，排水泵156可以被配置用于当被启动时促使洗涤流体从集液槽170流向排水管158。相比之下，循环泵154可以被配置为用于在启动时通过一个或更多个循环管道226将洗涤流体的流动从集液槽170供应到喷洒组件144、148和150。此外，过滤器组件也可以至少部分地定位在集液槽170中，用于在这种洗涤流体流到循环泵154之前，从洗涤流体中过滤食物颗粒或其它碎屑(本文中通常称为污物)。
喷洒组件144、148和150包括排放喷嘴或孔口的布置，用于将洗涤流体引导到位于搁架组件130和132中的碗碟或其他物品上。如下文将更详细描述的，器具100的一个或更多个喷洒组件(例如，喷洒组件144、148或150)可以作为动力喷洒臂300提供，该动力喷洒臂具有电动机310和与电动机310电气连通(例如，有线连通以交换电流或电压)的无线动力接收器314。
通常，电动机310与喷洒臂300机械连通以使喷洒臂300运动(例如，旋转、平移等)——或者以其他方式引导喷洒臂300的喷洒位置(例如，在洗涤或冲洗循环期间)。为此，提供电动机310作为任何合适的电机。可选地，电动机310是被配置成接收DC电压的直流(DC)电机。值得注意的是，在一些这种实施例中，电动机是相对低功率的电机，比如具有额定功率小于或等于50瓦(例如，40瓦)的电机。因此，为了满足各种政府效率或功率消耗要求的目的，向电机310功率传输的效率可能不太相关。
在使用期间，电动机310可以控制对应的喷洒臂310在洗涤室106内引导或喷洒洗涤流体的位置。换句话说，电动机310可以控制对应的喷洒臂300的 运动，以提供对相邻搁架(例如，搁架130)内的物品的覆盖。动力喷洒臂300的运动可以与通常可能的运动(例如，用传统喷洒臂)不同。例如，动力喷洒臂300可以通过电动机310沿一路径运动，该路径是可变的、洗涤区相关的，或者可能比典型的流体压力相关组件更慢。有利的是，电动机310可以控制动力喷洒臂300的位置，而不需要延伸通过桶104的内壁的机械连杆或传动系，否则这可能产生潜在的故障或泄漏点。
可选地，一个或更多个其他喷洒组件(即，除了动力喷洒臂300之外)可以包括排放喷嘴的布置，该排放喷嘴借助于流动通过排放端口的洗涤流体来提供旋转力。这种喷洒组件的最终旋转利用洗涤流体的喷洒来提供对碗碟和其他洗碗机内容物的覆盖。
洗碗器具100进一步配备有控制器137，以调节洗碗器具100的操作。控制器137可以包括存储器(例如，非瞬时介质)和微处理器，比如可操作为执行与洗涤操作相关联的编程指令或微控制代码的通用或专用微处理器。存储器可以表示比如DRAM的随机存取存储器，或者比如ROM或FLASH只读存储器。在一个实施例中，处理器执行储存在存储器中的编程指令。存储器可以是与处理器分离的部件，或者可以被包括在处理器内的板上。可选地，控制器137可以在不使用微处理器(例如，使用离散模拟和/或数字逻辑电路(比如开关、放大器、积分器、比较器、触发器、和门等)的组合)的情况下构造，以执行控制功能，而不依赖软件。
控制器137可以定位在整个洗碗器具100的各个位置中。具体而言，控制器137可以与洗涤室106间隔开或者另外地位于该洗涤室的外侧。在所示的实施例中，控制器137位于门120的控制面板区域121内，如图所示。在这种实施例中，输入/输出(“I/O”)信号可以沿着线束在控制器137和洗碗器具100的各种操作部件之间路由，所述线束可以穿过门120的底部122。通常，控制器137包括用户接口面板136，用户可以通过该面板选择各种操作特征和模式，并且监测洗碗器具100的进程。在一个实施例中，用户接口136可以表示通用I/O (“GPIO”)设备或功能块。在一个实施例中，用户接口136可以包括输入部件，比如包括旋转刻度盘、按钮和触摸板的各种电气、机械或机电输入设备中的一个或更多个。用户接口136可以包括显示部件，比如被设计成向用户提供操作反馈的数字或模拟显示设备。用户接口136可以经由一条或更多条信号线或共享通信总线与控制器137通信(例如，电气通信)。
在一些实施例中，提供无线功率发射器312以向洗碗器具100内的一个或更多个电动设备供电。特别地，无线功率发射器312可以安装在机柜102上或安装在该机柜内。此外，无线功率发射器312可以与无线功率接收器314可操作地通信(例如，无线或无接触通信)，以向其发射电磁场，该电磁场然后可以在对应的动力喷洒臂300(例如，喷洒臂148)处为电动机310供电。
如图所示，无线功率发射器312和无线功率接收器314可以在洗碗器具100的离散部分处物理地间隔开。当组装时，无线功率发射器312和无线功率接收器314因此可以无线耦接，而不会直接接触或电气接触。继而，两者之间可以维持气隙。在一些实施例中，无线功率接收器314可以安装或设置在洗涤室106内，而无线功率发射器312安装或设置在洗涤室106的外侧。例如，桶104的内衬可以是电气密封的，使得没有电线或总线穿过桶104。有利的是，可以避免潜在的故障或泄漏点，同时仍然准许向连接到无线功率接收器314的电气部件供电。
当组装时，电动机310可以设置在洗涤室106内。在一些这种实施例中，电动机310可以安装在动力喷洒臂300上，或者相对于该动力喷洒臂固定。例如，如图所示，动力喷洒臂300可以设置在喷洒臂148处或作为该喷洒臂提供。当组装时，动力喷洒臂300可以沿着竖直方向V设置在下部搁架132上方(例如，以为上部搁架130或下部搁架132提供喷洒)。值得注意的是，动力喷洒臂300可以避免复杂的机械连杆或传动系，该复杂的机械连杆或传动系否则可能有被上部搁架130内的物品损坏的风险。
附加地或替代地，动力喷洒臂300可以安装在可运动的搁架上，比如上部 搁架130。例如，动力喷洒臂300可以相对于上部搁架130固定，以与其一起滑动。电动机310还可以被支撑在相同搁架(例如，上部搁架130)上或相对于其固定。可选地，无线功率接收器314可以支撑在电动机310上或相对于该电动机固定。有利的是，电动机310和无线功率接收器314可以与上部搁架130一起运动或在该上部搁架上运动，而不影响或干扰任何电气连接。
通常，无线功率发射器312和无线功率接收器314可以被配置成交换产生电流的电磁场。例如，无线功率发射器312可以发射在无线功率接收器314处接收的电磁场(例如，由控制器137启用的电磁场)。在无线功率接收器314处，可以产生电流或电压，并且随后被发射到电动机310(例如，通过板上整流电路或激活电路)。例如，电磁场可以在无线功率接收器314处感应电流。因此，无线功率发射器312和无线功率接收器314可以是匹配的一对谐振感应线圈。然而，应当理解，可以使用任何其他合适的无线功率传输方法(例如，电感耦合、电容耦合等)。
在某些实施例中，动力喷洒臂300的运动至少部分地由控制器137控制。例如，控制器137可以与动力喷洒臂300可操作地通信，并且被配置成在动力喷洒臂300处启动机动喷洒运动。动力喷洒臂300和控制器137之间的可操作通信可以是直接的(例如，经由无线数据连接)或间接的(例如，经由从无线功率发射器312供应的电磁场通信)。机动喷洒运动可以显著地与来自任何流体泵(例如，泵154)的流体流速分离。因此，动力喷洒臂300的运动的路径(例如，旋转)或运动的速度(例如，旋转速率)可以不受来自上游泵(例如，循环泵154)的流速或压力的影响。
在可选的实施例中，在控制器137处启动的机动喷洒运动可以包括将信号或电压引导到无线功率发射器312，以便从其产生电磁场。在一些这种实施例中，电动机310的激活完全由引导到该电动机的电流控制。或者，辅助控制器320可以安装在动力喷洒臂300(例如，与电动机310一起)上。辅助控制器320可以被配置成当向动力喷洒臂300提供电力(例如，来自无线功率接收器314处 感应的电流)时，控制该动力喷洒臂的运动或路径(例如，通过控制电动机310的旋转方向或速度)。因此，电动机310可以与控制器137通信隔离。值得注意的是，可以避免从控制器137到电动机310的数据信号的复杂传输。
在附加的或替代的实施例中，喷洒臂300的机动喷洒运动可以取决于一个或更多个编程限制条件，比如门120处于关闭位置。当门120处于关闭位置时(例如，如在与门120接合的任何位置传感器或闩锁组件处所确定的)，控制器137可以引导或准许无线功率发射器312启用从其发射的电磁场。发射的电磁场然后可以被无线功率接收器314接收，以产生对应的电流，该电流可以启动电动机310。相比之下，当门120处于关闭位置时，控制器137可以限制电磁场从无线功率发射器312的传输(例如，通过暂停无线功率发射器312的任何电流或电压)。因此，在门120的打开位置，无线功率发射器312和无线功率接收器314之间的通信受到限制。可选地，动力喷洒臂300可以是电气绝缘组件。特别地，动力喷洒臂300可以是电气绝缘的，使得其上不提供电力储存(例如，电池或超级电容器)。因此，在缺乏与无线功率发射器312的无线通信的情况下，动力喷洒臂300可以没有电流或电压从其通过，有利地防止非预期的操作(例如，当门120处于打开位置时)。
该书面描述使用示例来公开本发明，包括最佳模式，并且还使本领域的任何技术人员能够实践本发明，包括制作和使用任何设备或系统以及执行任何结合的方法。本发明的可专利范围由权利要求限定，并且可以包括本领域中的技术人员想到的其他示例。如果这种其他示例包括与权利要求的字面语言没有不同的结构元件，或者如果它们包括与权利要求的字面语言没有实质不同的等同结构元件，则这种其他示例是旨在权利要求的范围内的。
