The washing assembly 4 comprises a first spraying device 41 and a second spraying device 42 which are in communication with the waterway 6, and a water pump (not shown in the figure) is also arranged in the housing 1. The water pump is used to drive the washing water in the waterway 6 to flow to the first spraying device 41 and / or the second spraying device 42, and to spray the washing water from the first spraying device 41 and / or the second spraying device 42 at a certain pressure to wash the washing objects.

[0047] In combination with Figures 9 to 13The first spraying device 41 is configured to spray washing water to the washing object in a rotating manner, and preferably, the first spraying device 41 is a first spraying arm 411 which is rotatably mounted on the water channel housing 5, and specifically, the center of the first spraying arm 411 is connected to the water channel housing 5 through a rotating joint 412 and communicates with the water channel 6, and a plurality of nozzles are arranged on the first spraying arm 411 in a certain pattern, and the reaction force of the water flow sprayed from the nozzles drives the first spraying arm 411 to rotate.

[0048] The second spraying device 42 is connected to the water channel housing 5 through a detachable joint 423, and the second spraying device 42 comprises a passage housing which is fixedly arranged relative to the housing 1, and a protruding portion 424 arranged on the upper surface of the passage housing and used for extending into the inside of the bottle 7 to be cleaned. The top end of the protruding portion 424 is provided with a nozzle for spraying water into the inside of the bottle, and the height of the protruding portion 424 is preferably 5-15 cm, and the outer diameter of the protruding portion 424 is less than the inner diameter of the bottle mouth, so that there is no contact between the protruding portion 424 and the bottle during cleaning to avoid the dead angle caused by the contact.

[0049] Preferably, the shelf 3 is further provided with a bowl and dish placing area, and the first spraying arm 411 is arranged on the lower side of the passage housing, and the first spraying arm 411 sprays washing water to the washing object placed on the bowl and dish placing area and the hanging arm 323.

[0050] The bottle fixing structure fixes the bottle 7 to be cleaned at a position where the protruding portion 424 extends into the inside of the bottle, and specifically, the bottle fixing structure comprises a grid structure 325 used for contacting the bottle mouth of the bottle 7 to be cleaned to support the weight of the bottle, a positioning column 326 connected to the grid structure 325 and extending upward to a certain height, and a spherical body formed on the upper end of the positioning column 326 and used for contacting the outer side surface of the bottle 7 to be cleaned, and the positioning column 326 is at least three, and arranged around the bottle, and the three positioning columns 326 are configured to contact the bottle in a clamping manner to limit the movement of the bottle.

[0051] Preferably, the positioning column 326 is multiple, and matched at different heights to facilitate the fixing of the bottle.

[0052] The grid structure 325 is composed of transverse and longitudinal connecting ribs, and the surface of the grid structure 325 which contacts the bottle is arranged in an inclined manner to make the bottle inclined at a certain angle to facilitate the collection and flow of water droplets in the bottle.

[0053] Preferably, the second injection device 42 further includes a second injection arm 426 rotatably mounted on the channel housing. The second injection arm 426 is disposed on a side away from the first injection device 41 and is also configured to inject washing water toward the washing object in a rotational manner. The second injection arm 426 is mainly used to spray water onto the outer side of the bottle body 7 to be cleaned, so as to clean the outer surface of the bottle body.

[0054] Preferably, the second injection arm 426 is detachably mounted on the channel housing. An installation opening is formed on the channel housing. The bottom of the second injection arm 426 is provided with a socket inserted into the inner side of the installation opening and a claw 4261 stuck on the outer side of the installation opening. An annular flange 4211 is provided on the outer side of the installation opening to cooperate with the claw 4261. The claw 4261 is stuck on the annular flange 4211 to limit the second injection arm 426 on the channel housing. The socket and the installation opening are in rotational sealing fit. A plurality of nozzles inclined according to a certain rule are also provided on the second injection arm 426. The water flow ejected from the nozzles generates a reaction force to drive the second injection arm 426 to rotate.

[0055] To make full use of the space inside the housing 1, the channel housing includes an intermediate channel 421, a first transverse channel 422 and a second transverse channel 423 that horizontally penetrate and communicate with the intermediate channel 421. The first transverse channel 422 and the second transverse channel 423 are parallel and arranged at a certain distance. Among them, the intermediate channel 421, the first transverse channel 422 and the second transverse channel 423 together form a "plus" - shaped structure. Specifically, the first transverse channel 422 is located at the middle position of the intermediate channel 421, and the second transverse channel 423 is located at one end of the intermediate channel 421, and this end is close to the first injection device 41. The second injection arm 426 is located at the other end of the intermediate channel 421.

[0056] The raised portions 424 are multiple and are respectively disposed on the upper surfaces of the first transverse channel 422 and the second transverse channel 423. The adjacent raised portions 424 are spaced at a certain distance to prevent the bottle bodies from colliding with each other.

[0057] Preferably, the detachable joint 423 is connected to the bottom of the intermediate channel 421. The detachable joint 423 is connected to the installation opening provided on the water channel housing 5 by means of rotational engagement. Rotating arms 428 for facilitating the rotation of the joint are further provided on both sides of the detachable joint 423. The rotating arms 428 and the detachable joint 423 are of an integral structure.

[0058] Preferably, the protruding part 424 is a cylindrical structure formed by extending upward from the upper surface of the channel housing to a certain height, and has a flow channel inside in communication with the inside of the channel housing. The nozzle is configured to spray water flow at least to the sidewall of the bottle 7 to be cleaned. Specifically, the nozzle is an arc-shaped cutout and is arranged upwardly inclined at an angle relative to the horizontal plane. The angle of the nozzle needs to ensure that the water flow impacts the sidewall of the bottle and then revolves to clean the inside of the bottle thoroughly.

[0059] The bottle 7 to be cleaned is preferably a feeding bottle. The barb structure 327 is used to fix the nipple 8 matched with the feeding bottle. The barb structure 327 is at least three and press-fits the nipple 8 on the grid structure 325.

[0060] Preferably, the channel housing is further provided with a plurality of auxiliary nozzles 427. The height of the auxiliary nozzles 427 is lower than that of the protruding part 424, and the auxiliary nozzles 427 are arranged spaced apart from the protruding part 424. The auxiliary nozzles 427 are used to spray washing water to the outside of the bottle and the nipple 8.

[0061] The use method of the present application is as follows: in use, the feeding bottle or other bottle 7 to be cleaned is inserted between the positioning columns 326 with the opening downward, so that the bottle opening is in contact with the grid structure 325, and the protruding part 424 is inserted into the bottle. The nipple 8 is clamped under the barb structure 327, the baby toothpaste is hung on the hanging arm 323, and the dishes are placed in the dish placing area of the dish rack 3. Then, the door 2 of the dishwasher is closed, and the dishwasher is started.
