Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular relates to a filter system for a dishwasher and a dishwasher having the filter system. Background Art

[0002] Currently, most dishwasher filters consist of two parts: a coarse filter and a fine filter. These two parts are cylindrical in shape, with different diameters. The coarse filter is assembled into the fine filter through an assembly structure. However, the fine filter currently lacks any filtration structure at the bottom, connecting directly to the interior of the pump. This allows a large amount of particulate matter to pass through the coarse filter and enter the drain pump directly, preventing the pump from completely removing it. This can lead to particulate matter accumulation and blockage. When a dishwasher is washing dishes and vegetables containing large amounts of particulate matter, the water flowing through the coarse filter directly reaches the drain pump inlet. This large amount of particulate matter entering the drain pump increases the pump's load, and some particulate matter that cannot be discharged in time accumulates in the dishwasher's sump, causing drainage problems.

[0003] Chinese patent application number CN201810302070.0 discloses a dishwasher and its filtration system, wherein the dishwasher includes a water collection cup and a washing pump, wherein the washing pump is used to pump water from the water collection cup. The filtration system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a planar filter component, wherein the planar filter component is arranged above the water collection cup; and a cylindrical filter component, wherein the cylindrical filter component is cylindrically configured and rotatably arranged in the water collection cup, and the cylindrical filter component rotates when the washing pump pumps water.

[0004] Chinese patent application number CN201810302061.1 discloses a dishwasher and its filtration system. The dishwasher includes a water collection cup, and the filtration system comprises a cylindrical filter element rotatably disposed within the water collection cup, and a motor for rotating the cylindrical filter element.

[0005] Although the above-mentioned prior art proposes a solution for a dishwasher filtration system, which solves the problem of the washing water in the dishwasher forming circulating spray water through a washing pump to wash the items to be washed in the dishwasher, there is still a problem that during the filtration process, excessive food residues such as particulate matter are mixed into the washing water and eventually accumulate in the filtration system. When the dishwasher is draining, a large amount of food residues such as particulate matter directly enters the drain pump, making it impossible for the drain pump to completely remove the waste, resulting in the accumulation of particulate matter and clogging the drain pump.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the shortcomings and defects of the existing technology and provide a filtering system for a dishwasher and a dishwasher with the filtering system. By setting a three-layer filtering system with a filtering structure at the bottom, the problem of clogging the drainage pump when the dishwasher is washing tableware and vegetables containing a large amount of particulate matter can be effectively solved, thereby improving the overall life of the dishwasher; at the same time, it can directly collect particulate matter that cannot be removed by the drainage pump, facilitate cleaning, and improve the cleanliness of the inside of the dishwasher.

[0057] It should be noted that these drawings and textual descriptions are not intended to limit the conceptual scope of the present invention in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of the present invention for those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0058] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0059] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0060] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they may refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; and direct or indirect connections through an intermediary. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0061] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the axial side of the filtration system structure of the present invention. Figure 1 The axial structure of the filter system of the dishwasher of the present invention can be seen in the figure. The first filter part 1 is placed inside the second filter part 2. A plurality of strip-shaped rib-shaped filter structures are arranged at intervals on the side wall of the first filter part 1. After the washing water filled with particulate matter in the dishwasher passes through the first filter part 1, the particulate matter is retained in the first filter part 1. The washing water filtered by the filter structure enters the second filter part 2. Figure 1 It can be seen that the side wall of the second filter part 2 is provided with a filtering structure composed of vertical ribs. The filtering structure of the second filter part 2 is relatively sparsely distributed than the filtering structure of the first filter part 1. The particulate matter is mainly collected by the first filter part 1, and the washing water passing through the second filter part 2 can be directly circulated back to the dishwasher from the washing pump 4; in addition, a third filter part 3 is also provided at the bottom of the second filter part 2. Since the washing water filtered out of the first filter part 1 still contains a certain degree of particulate matter, during the drainage process, a large amount of particulate matter will directly enter the drainage pump 5 after coarse filtration, making it impossible for the drainage pump 5 to completely eliminate the particulate matter, resulting in the accumulation of particulate matter and clogging the drainage pump 5. Therefore, the present invention provides a third filter part 3 to address this phenomenon.

[0062] Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first and second schematic diagrams of the main cross-sectional view of the filtration system structure of the present invention are shown in FIG. Figure 3 Most of the filtering structures in the first filter part 1 are omitted to facilitate observation of the overall structure of the filtering system. Figure 2 and Figure 3As can be seen, a receiving groove 101 and a protruding structure 102 are provided in the first filter part 1. The receiving groove 101 forms a space for accommodating particulate matter, and the protruding structure 102 can prevent a large amount of particulate matter in the washing water from clogging the filter structure. The protruding structure 102 effectively diverts the particulate matter entering from the water inlet end of the first filter part 1 to the side wall of the first filter part 1, and at the same time raises the water level of the filter structure to prevent the particulate matter from burying the filter structure. In addition, a protruding claw 301 and a guide structure 6 are also provided on the third filter part 3, and the third filter part 3 provided at the bottom of the second filter part 2 can rotate, so that when too much particulate matter clogs the filter structure, the third filter part 3 can stir the particulate matter by rotation to avoid clogging, and the guide structure 6 prevents too much particulate matter from falling out of the first filter part 1, causing problems such as clogging in the gap where the equipment is connected. At the same time, the guide structure 6 also has the function of introducing impurities such as particulate matter to the drainage pump 5.

[0063] Figure 4 、 5 6 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first filter part 1, the second filter part 2 and the third filter part 3 of the present invention, which is mainly used to separately display the first filter part 1, the second filter part 2 and the third filter part 3 of the present invention. Figure 6 The protruding claws 301 and the guiding structure 6 provided on the third filter portion 3 can be seen more clearly in the figure. Figure 6 In the illustrated solution, two protruding claws 301 are symmetrically arranged on the third filter portion 3 , and the guiding structure 6 is arranged in a trend of being inclined from the periphery of the third filter portion 3 toward the center.

[0064] In general, the present invention can effectively solve the problem of clogging the drain pump 5 when the dishwasher is washing tableware and vegetables containing a large amount of particulate matter by adding a bottom filter device to the bottom of the filter structure of the dishwasher, thereby improving the overall life of the dishwasher; at the same time, it can directly collect particulate matter that cannot be removed by the drain pump 5, facilitate cleaning, and improve the cleanliness of the inside of the dishwasher; a raised structure 102 is provided in the first filter part 1, which can avoid the situation where a large amount of particulate matter in the washing water clogs the filter structure. The raised structure 102 effectively diverts the particulate matter entering from the water inlet end of the first filter part 1 to the side wall of the first filter part 1, and at the same time raises the water level of the filter structure , to prevent particles from burying the filter structure; the third filter part 3 arranged at the bottom of the second filter part 2 can rotate, so that when too much particulate matter blocks the filter structure, the third filter part 3 can stir the particulate matter by rotation, thereby avoiding clogging; a guide structure 6 is provided on the periphery of the third filter part 3 to prevent excessive particulate matter from falling out of the first filter part 1, causing problems such as clogging in the gaps where the equipment is connected. At the same time, the guide structure 6 also has the function of introducing impurities such as particles into the drainage pump 5; the first, second and third filter parts are connected by a detachable structure, and the detachable structure is snap-fit ​​or magnetic, which is convenient for users to disassemble and clean, and improves the user experience.

After the washing water filled with particulate matter in the dishwasher passes through the first filter part 1, the particulate matter is retained in the first filter part 1. The washing water filtered by the filter structure enters the second filter part 2. Figure 1 It can be seen that the side wall of the second filter part 2 is provided with a filtering structure composed of vertical ribs. The filtering structure of the second filter part 2 is relatively sparsely distributed than the filtering structure of the first filter part 1. The particulate matter is mainly collected by the first filter part 1, and the washing water passing through the second filter part 2 can be directly circulated back to the dishwasher from the washing pump 4; in addition, a third filter part 3 is also provided at the bottom of the second filter part 2. Since the washing water filtered out of the first filter part 1 still contains a certain degree of particulate matter, during the drainage process, a large amount of particulate matter will directly enter the drainage pump 5 after coarse filtration, making it impossible for the drainage pump 5 to completely eliminate the particulate matter, resulting in the accumulation of particulate matter and clogging the drainage pump 5. Therefore, the present invention provides a third filter part 3 to address this phenomenon.
