Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of dishwashers, and more particularly to a dual-waterway structure for adding salt to a dishwasher. Background Technology

[0002] In existing dishwashers, when adding softening salt to the salt chamber located on the side wall of the dishwasher's inner drum, the addition port on the dispenser is located on the side wall of the dispenser. This requires the door to be completely folded down to a horizontal position before adding the salt, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a salt cavity with a filling port located at the top and having a dual water passage structure.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0005] A dual-waterway structure for adding salt to a dishwasher includes a soft water chamber and a waterway chamber. The waterway chamber has an inlet that communicates with the inner tank. The waterway chamber is divided into an independent direct waterway and a soft waterway. The soft waterway connects the inlet I at the bottom of the respirator to the soft water chamber and the soft water chamber to the inlet. The direct waterway connects the inlet II at the bottom of the respirator to the inlet. The soft water chamber is divided into a storage chamber and a softening chamber. The storage chamber has a salt-adding port at its top. The storage chamber and the softening chamber are connected by an inlet hole.

[0006] As a preferred option, the direct waterway is divided into a V-shaped waterway and an L-shaped waterway, and the V-shaped waterway and the L-shaped waterway are connected by a bend.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the soft water channel is located on the back side of the respirator and forms a protrusion.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the direct water path and the soft water path are connected to the mixing water path cavity at the top of the inlet; the mixing water path cavity is divided into an upper cavity and a lower cavity that are interconnected; the upper cavity is triangular in shape, and the top of the upper cavity has a notch that connects to the direct water path, and a through hole that connects to the soft water path is provided at one corner of the bottom of the upper cavity; the lower cavity has a through hole II that connects to the inlet.

[0009] As a preferred option, the through hole II is equipped with an electromagnetic control valve.

[0010] As a preferred option, the water inlet I is equipped with an electromagnetic control valve.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the storage cavity is provided with a grid plate.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are: the salt chamber has a filling port at the top, so softening salt can be added after opening the dishwasher door; it is simple and convenient to use, and has a dual water path design, which allows different water paths to be selected according to different usage needs, so that this structure has the advantages of saving softening salt and reducing power consumption.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-4 A dual-waterway structure for adding salt to a dishwasher includes a soft water chamber 1 and a waterway chamber 2. The waterway chamber 2 has an inlet 3 connected to the inner tank. The soft water chamber 1 softens tap water, reducing its hardness and preventing scale buildup at high temperatures that could clog the spray arms. The waterway chamber 2 is divided into two independent waterways: a direct waterway 21 and a soft waterway 22. When using the washing pump spray system, tap water from the soft waterway 22 can be selected. The soft waterway 22 connects the inlet I101 at the bottom of the respirator to the soft water chamber 1 and the soft water chamber 1 to the inlet 3. An electromagnetic control valve 5 is installed on the inlet I101 to control the water flow. When using the ultrasonic function, tap water from the direct waterway 21 is selected. The water supply is provided by the direct water path 21, which connects the water inlet II 102 at the bottom of the respirator to the water inlet 3. The water softening chamber 1 is divided into a storage chamber 11 and a softening chamber 12. The storage chamber 11 is provided with a salt inlet 13 at the top, through which softened salt is added into the storage chamber 11. At the same time, the softened salt can be diluted with water and enter the water through the water inlet 14. Meanwhile, a grid plate 15 is provided at the bottom of the storage chamber 11 to prevent undissolved softened salt from clogging the water inlet 14. This allows the softened salt to be added into the storage chamber 11 as soon as the dishwasher door is opened, avoiding the need to open the dishwasher door to a horizontal position before adding softened salt. This makes adding softened salt very convenient and quick. Different tap water can be selected from different water paths depending on the environment, which saves on the use of softened salt and reduces the power consumption of the dishwasher.

[0019] The aforementioned direct water passage 21 is divided into a V-shaped water passage 211 and an L-shaped water passage 212. The V-shaped water passage 211 and the L-shaped water passage 212 are connected by a bend 213. The V-shaped water passage 211 and the L-shaped water passage 212 reduce the space occupied by the direct water passage 21, making the structure more compact and reducing the volume of the respirator. The soft water passage 22 is located on the back side of the respirator and forms a protrusion. Since the respirator has a soft water cavity 1, and the thickness of the soft water cavity 1 is greater than the thickness of the water passage cavity 2, the back side of the respirator is stepped. The soft water passage 22 is located on the back side, which can make full use of space and reduce space waste.

[0020] The direct water path 21 and the soft water path 22 are connected to the mixing water path cavity 4 at the top of the inlet 3. The mixing water path cavity 4 is divided into an upper cavity 41 and a lower cavity 42 that are interconnected. The upper cavity 41 is triangular in shape. The top of the upper cavity 41 is provided with a notch 43 that is connected to the direct water path 21. One corner of the bottom of the upper cavity 41 is provided with a through hole 44 that is connected to the soft water path 22. The lower cavity 42 is provided with a through hole II 45 that is connected to the inlet 3. During use, the water passing through the direct water path 21 and the soft water path 22 is collected in the upper cavity 41 and flows into the lower cavity 42 through the upper cavity 41. It then enters the inlet 3 through the through hole II 45. In order to control the water flow through the through hole II 45, an electromagnetic control valve 5 is provided on the through hole II 45.

[0021] Based on the above principles, the present invention can also make appropriate changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
