[0046] In order to further understand the content, features and effects of the present invention, the following embodiments are given as examples and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0047] The capsule dishwasher of this embodiment is designed and developed to meet the requirement of small dishwashers taking up small space. Figures 1 to 5 and Figure 7The capsule dishwasher includes an inner tank 1, a base 2, a spray assembly 3, an external water channel 4, a heating water channel 5, a door assembly 6 and a water tank 7. The inner tank 1 has a washing cavity, and the depth of the inner tank 1 is 1.5-2 times its width; the base 2 is adapted to the bottom size of the inner tank 1 and is connected to the bottom of the inner tank 1, and a water tank 21 is provided on the upper surface of the base 2; the spray assembly 3 is provided on the upper surface of the base 2 and is located in the washing cavity; the external water channel 4 is integrated with the lower surface of the base 2 and is integrally formed with the base 2, and the external water channel 4 is connected to the spray assembly 3 and the washing cavity The base 2 is connected to the outer water channel 4 and is used to supply washing water to the spray assembly 3 and discharge the sewage in the washing chamber. The heating water channel 5 is integrated into the lower surface of the base 2 and is used to heat the washing water output by the external water channel 4 and then supply it to the spray assembly 3. The lower end of the door assembly 6 is hinged to the base 2 and is used to seal the opening in front of the inner tank 1. The door assembly 6 is provided with an air duct assembly 61, and the air duct assembly 61 is provided with a fan 62 for drying the washing chamber. The water tank 7 is connected to the external water channel 4 and is used to store washing water and sewage discharged from the washing chamber. When the capsule dishwasher of the present invention is in operation, tableware is placed in the washing chamber and then the capsule dishwasher is started. The external water channel 4 begins to draw water from the water tank 7. The water drawn by the external water channel 4 enters the heating water channel 5, and after being heated by the heating water channel 5, it enters the spray assembly 3. The spray assembly 3 sprays water and washes the tableware in the washing chamber. When the tableware is washed, the external water channel 4 draws the sewage in the washing chamber and discharges it into the water tank 7. If the capsule dishwasher is placed on the stove, the side of the inner tank 1 perpendicular to the stove in the vertical direction is called the height of the inner tank 1, the side of the inner tank 1 parallel to the length direction of the stove is called the width of the inner tank 1, and the side of the inner tank 1 parallel to the depth (width direction) of the stove is called the length of the inner tank 1. Compared with the prior art, the depth of the washing cavity of the capsule dishwasher of this embodiment is 1.5-2 times its width, that is, the depth (length) of the inner tank 1 is much greater than its width. In this way, when the capsule dishwasher is placed on the stove, the depth (length) of the capsule dishwasher can fully utilize the depth (width) of the stove, and the width of the inner tank 1 will not take up a lot of stove space; at the same time, the capsule dishwasher is equipped with a special The heating water channel 5 separates the heater from the external water channel 4, which can reduce the space occupied by the external water channel 4 on the base 2 and enable the external water channel 4 to adapt to the size of the base 2, without increasing the overall size of the dishwasher, especially the width of the dishwasher. In addition, the capsule dishwasher has an external water tank 7. When the use site is not provided with a water inlet joint and a drainage joint, the dishwasher can also supply washing water through the water tank 7 when working, and can also store sewage after washing through the water tank 7, so that the capsule dishwasher can be used in a variety of places without water inlet pipes and drainage pipes, such as outdoors, RVs, offices and exhibitions, and is more likely to be popularized.

[0048] In this embodiment, the capsule dishwasher is equipped with a water tank 7, which is equipped with a partition that divides the water tank 7 into two independent parts: one part is used to store washing water, and the other part is used to store wastewater discharged from the washing chamber. Thus, when the capsule dishwasher is operating, the external water channel 4 draws clean water from the washing water portion of the water tank 7 for use as washing water. After the dishes are washed, the external water channel 4 discharges the wastewater in the washing chamber into the wastewater portion of the water tank 7.

[0049] Of course, in other embodiments, the capsule dishwasher is equipped with two water tanks 7, one of which is used to store washing water, and the other is used to store sewage discharged from the washing chamber. In this way, when the capsule dishwasher is working, the external water channel 4 draws clean water stored in the water tank 7 for storing washing water for use as washing water. When the dishes are washed, the external water channel 4 discharges the sewage into the other water tank 7 for storing sewage.

[0050] See also Figure 3 In this embodiment, a filter assembly 22 is further provided within the base 2. This filter assembly 22 is located within the sink 21. When the spray assembly 3 washes dishes, the water sprayed from the spray assembly 3 falls into the washing chamber, then passes through the filter assembly 22 and enters the sink 21. This allows the filter assembly 22 to remove food residue from the water in the washing chamber when the external waterway 4 drains the wastewater, preventing it from clogging the external waterway 4. In specific applications, a mounting step 211 is provided on the inner wall of the sink 21, and the filter assembly 22 is mounted on this step 211. The upper surface of the filter assembly 22 is tangent to the upper surface of the base 2. Usually, in order to facilitate the filter assembly 22 to filter the water in the inner tank 1, the height of the center of the upper surface of the filter assembly 22 is usually lower than the height of the edge of the filter assembly 22. After the filter assembly 22 is installed on the installation step 211, the upper surface of the filter assembly 22 is tangent to the upper surface of the base 2, that is, the thickness at the edge of the filter assembly 22 is adapted to the height of the installation step 211. In this way, after the filter assembly 22 is installed on the installation step 211, the filter assembly 22 can be kept smoothly connected to the upper surface of the base 2, so that the accumulated water in the base 2 can smoothly enter the filter assembly 22.

[0051] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the spray assembly 3 includes a spray arm seat 31 and a spray arm 32. The spray arm seat 31 is detachably connected to the upper surface of the base 2. The spray arm seat 31 has a water inlet end and a water outlet end. The spray arm 32 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the spray arm seat 31 and is connected to the water outlet end of the spray arm seat 31. The water inlet end of the spray arm seat 31 is connected to the water outlet end of the heating water circuit 5.

[0052] Since the depth of the washing chamber is greater than its width, if the spray assembly 3 is set in the middle of the base 2, if the spray range of the spray assembly 3 is adapted to the width of the washing chamber, the spray range of the spray assembly 3 will be smaller than the depth of the washing chamber, so the dishes in the washing chamber will not be fully cleaned. Please refer to Figures 2 to 4 Therefore, in this embodiment, the number of the spray assemblies 3 is two, and the two spray assemblies 3 are arranged in the base 2 in the front and back along the depth direction of the base 2. In this way, when the capsule dishwasher is working, the spray assembly 3 near the inside of the washing cavity and the spray assembly 3 near the outside of the washing cavity wash the tableware in the washing cavity at the same time, and the tableware is discharged along the depth direction of the washing cavity and can be fully cleaned.

[0053] See also Figure 7 and Figure 9In this embodiment, the external water circuit 4 includes a water cup 41, a connecting pipe 42, a washing pump 43 and a drain pump 44. The water cup 41 and the connecting pipe 42 are integrally formed with the base 2 and are arranged on the lower surface of the base 2. The opening of the water cup 41 is connected to the water sink 21. The water cup 41 is provided with a drain pump connector 411 and a water outlet pipe connector 412. The drain pump 44 is connected to the drain pump connector 411. The water outlet pipe connector 412 is connected to the water tank 7 through a pipe fitting. One end of the connecting pipe 42 is connected to the water cup 41, and the other end of the connecting pipe 42 is provided with a washing pump connector 421. The washing pump 43 is connected to the washing pump connector 421. The washing pump connector 421 is provided with a water outlet hole 422 and a water inlet 423. The water outlet hole 422 is connected to the heating water circuit 5, and the water inlet 423 is connected to the water tank 7 through a pipe fitting. In the capsule dishwasher of this embodiment, the water flow in the external water channel 4 has three flow directions. Direction 1: The water for washing is the water in the water tank 7. The water in the water tank 7 enters the connecting pipe 42 through the water inlet 423 on the washing pump connector 421, is then pumped by the washing pump 43 and discharged through the water outlet 422 on the washing pump connector 421. The water in the water tank 7 flows out through the water outlet 422 on the washing pump connector 421 and enters the heating water channel 5. The heating water channel 5 heats the water and then sends it into the spray arm seat 31 of the spray assembly 3. The water then enters the spray arm 32 from the water outlet end of the spray arm seat 31. The process of entering the spray arm 32 and being sprayed out from the spray hole on the spray arm 32 drives the spray arm 32 to move around the spray arm seat 31. The water sprayed by the spray arm 32 falls on the upper surface of the base 2 and enters the water tank 21. ; Flow direction two: The washing water is the water entering the water cup 41 from the washing chamber, so the washing pump 43 draws the water in the water cup 41 and discharges the washing water from the water outlet 422 on the washing pump connector 421. The washing water flows out through the water outlet 422 on the washing pump connector 421 and enters the heating water path 5. The heating water path 5 heats the water and then sends it into the spray arm seat 31 of the spray assembly 3. Then, the water enters the spray arm 32 from the water outlet end of the spray arm seat 31. The process of entering the spray arm 32 and being sprayed out from the spray hole on the spray arm 32 drives the spray arm 32 to rotate around the spray arm seat 31. The water sprayed by the spray arm 32 falls onto the upper surface of the base 2 and enters the water tank 21. Flow direction three: At the end of washing, the drain pump 44 starts and discharges the water entering the water cup 41 from the water outlet pipe connector 412.No matter where the washing water comes from, the heating water circuit 5 heats the water discharged from the water outlet 422 on the washing pump connector 421. That is to say, before entering the spray assembly 3, the washing water must pass through a heating water circuit 5 independent of the external water circuit 4, rather than being heated when entering the washing pump 43 and then discharged from the water outlet end of the washing pump 43. This design allows the heating water circuit 5 to heat the water entering the spray assembly 3 more fully. In addition, the heater can be separated from the washing pump 43, which can reduce the size of the washing pump 43. When the washing pump 43 is installed on the washing pump connector 421, the washing pump 43 can be reduced on the base 2. Occupied space; in addition, the water cup 41 and the connecting pipe 42 are integrally formed with the base 2, which can reduce the size of the base 2. After the inner tank 1 of the base 2 is connected, the space occupied by the capsule dishwasher can be reduced. At the same time, the drain pump 44 is directly connected to the drain pump connector 411 on the water cup 41 to be fixed on the base 2, and the washing pump 43 is directly connected to the washing pump connector 421 at the other end of the connecting pipe 42 to be fixed on the base 2. The water cup 41 and the connecting pipe 42 are directly connected to each other, which can save the pipes used to connect the water cup 41 and the washing pump 43, reduce the connecting joints, reduce the probability of water leakage, and simplify the assembly process.

[0054] Since the capsule dishwasher has the function of circulating washing, circulating washing means that the external water channel 4 extracts the water in the washing chamber as washing water and delivers it to the spray assembly 3, which can save water. In order to make the water in the washing chamber easier to gather, please refer to Figure 5 In this embodiment, a water trough 21 is located on one side of the base 2 along the depth of the base 2 and is connected to the external water channel 4. Two spray assemblies 3 are located on the other side of the base 2 along the depth of the base 2. This allows water sprayed by the spray assemblies 3 during dishwashing to be collected in the water trough 21. During the capsule dishwasher's cycle wash cycle, the external water channel draws water from the water trough 21 as wash water and delivers it to the spray assemblies 3, allowing the capsule dishwasher to recycle the wash water. Furthermore, the water trough 21 and the two spray assemblies 3 are located on either side of the base 2 in the width direction. This not only allows the water trough 21 to fully utilize the depth of the base 2 but also facilitates the collection of water from the washing chamber into the water trough 21. In specific applications, the base 2's upper surface on the side where the water trough 21 is located has a lower base surface than the base 2's upper surface on the side where the spray assemblies 3 are located.

[0055] See also Figure 7In this embodiment, the projection of the external water channel 4 onto the base 2 is located within the projection of the water tank 21 onto the base 2. This ensures that the length and width of the external water channel 4, after being mounted on the lower surface of the base 2, do not exceed the length and width of the water tank 21. When the water tank 21 is located on the upper surface of the base 2 along the length direction of the base 2, the length of the external water channel 4 will not exceed the length of the base 2. The length and width of the base 2 are the depth and width of the capsule dishwasher. After the external water channel 4 is mounted on the base 2, the size of the capsule dishwasher will not be expanded.

[0056] See also Figures 7 to 9 In this embodiment, the heating water path 5 includes a first heater mounting seat 51, a heater 52, and a second heater mounting seat 53. The first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53 are arranged on the lower surface of the base 2 along the length direction of the base 2 and are integrally formed with the base 2. The first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53 are each connected to a spray assembly 3, and at least one of the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53 is connected to the external water path 4. The heater 52 is a flow-through heater, and its two ends are respectively connected to the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53, and are used to connect the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53. The first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53 are arranged on the lower surface of the base 2 along the length direction of the base 2 and are integrally formed with the base 2. This not only reduces the assembly process, but also reduces the number of pipes for the heater 52, reduces the risk of water leakage, and can fully utilize the length of the base 2. When the external water channel 4 supplies water to the heating water channel 5, the water enters from the first heater mounting seat 51 or the second heater mounting seat 53 connected to the external water channel 4, and after being heated by the heater 52, enters the spray arm seat 31 of the corresponding spray assembly, and then enters the corresponding spray arm 32 from the spray arm seat 31.

[0057] See also Figure 8In specific applications, the first heater mounting base 51 is provided with a first water inlet joint 511 and a first water outlet 512. The first water outlet 512 passes through the upper surface of the base 2 and is connected to one of the spray components 3. The first water inlet joint 511 is connected to the water outlet end of the heater 52. The second heater mounting base 53 is a three-way joint, including an external water inlet joint 531, a heater water inlet joint 532 and a second water outlet 533. The external water inlet joint 531 is connected to the water outlet hole 422. The second water outlet 533 passes through the upper surface of the base 2 and is connected to another spray component 3. The water inlet end of the heater 52 is connected to the heater water inlet joint 532. That is to say, the second heater mounting seat 53 is connected to the water outlet 422 of the external water channel 4, and the two ends of the heater 52 are respectively connected to the first water inlet joint 511 of the first heater mounting seat 51 and the heater water inlet joint 532 of the second heater mounting seat 53, that is, part of the water entering the second heater mounting seat 53 will directly enter the corresponding spray assembly 3, and the other part will enter the heater 52 and flow along the heater 52 to be heated. Finally, the heated water enters the first heater mounting seat 51, and then enters the corresponding spray assembly 3 from the first heater mounting seat 51, and is drawn into the water tank 7 by the washing pump 43. When the water in the washing chamber is used as washing water, the spray assembly 3 corresponding to the first heater mounting seat 51 uses hot water to wash the items to be washed, and the spray assembly 3 corresponding to the second heater mounting seat 53 uses cold water to wash the items to be washed. When the capsule dishwasher uses circulating water for washing, that is, when the washing pump 43 extracts water in the washing chamber as washing water, the water sent by the washing pump 43 to the second heater mounting seat 53 is hot water. At this time, the power of the heater 52 can be turned off or reduced, and the spray arm assembly corresponding to the first heater mounting seat 51 and the spray assembly 3 corresponding to the second heater mounting seat 53 both use hot water to wash the items to be washed.

[0058] See also Figure 8 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11The internal water channel structure of this embodiment further includes a diverter 534, which is arranged in the second heater mounting base 53. The diverter 534 is provided with a first opening 5341, a second opening 5342, a third opening 5343 and a water outlet 5344. The first opening 5341 is closely attached to the bottom wall of the second heater mounting base 53 and is sealed with the bottom wall. The second opening 5342 is closely attached to the side wall of the second heater mounting base 53 provided with the external water inlet joint 531 and is sealed with the side wall. The third opening 5343 is closely attached to the second heater mounting base 53. The heater mounting seat 53 is provided with a side wall of the heater water inlet joint 532 and is sealedly connected to the side wall. The water outlet hole 5344 is provided on the upper surface of the diverter 534 body. The diverter 534 is used to allow the washing water output from the external water circuit to only enter the body of the diverter 534, and then enter the heater water inlet joint 532 through the third opening 5343, and enter the second heater mounting seat 53 through the water outlet hole 5344 to balance the amount of washing water output from the external water circuit entering the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53. That is to say, since the washing water enters the second heater mounting seat 53 through the external water channel 4, the second heater mounting seat 53 is relatively close to the water outlet end of the external water channel. If the diverter 534 is not provided, the water output and water pressure of the second water outlet 533 of the second heater mounting seat 53 will be greater than the water output of the first water outlet 512 of the first heater mounting seat 51, which will affect the washing effect of the spray assembly 3 corresponding to the first water outlet 512 of the first heater mounting seat 51. By providing the diverter 534 in the second heater mounting seat 53, the water of the external water channel 4 first enters the body of the diverter 534, and then is discharged by the third opening of the diverter 534. The water flows from the outlet 5343 to the heater water inlet joint 532, and then flows to the heater 52, and then flows to the first heater mounting seat 51 through the heater 52. The water in the body of the diverter 534 enters the second heater mounting seat 53 through the water outlet 5344, and then enters the corresponding spray assembly 3 from the second heater mounting seat 53. The water is diverted by the diverter 534 body and enters the second heater mounting seat 53, which can reduce the water output and water pressure of the second water outlet 533 of the second heater mounting seat 53, so that the water output and water pressure of the second water outlet 533 are balanced with the water output and water pressure of the first water outlet 512, so that the washing effects of the two spray assemblies 3 are consistent.

[0059] See also Figure 8In this embodiment, the first water inlet joint 511 is set vertically, the heater water inlet joint 532 is set horizontally, and the heater 52 is set horizontally. The water outlet end of the heater 52 is connected to the first water inlet joint 511 through the elbow joint 521, and the water inlet end of the heater 52 is connected to the heater water inlet joint 532 through the straight pipe joint 522. Because the heater 52 is connected between the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53, if the first water inlet joint 511 on the first heater mounting seat 51 and the heater water inlet joint 532 on the second heater mounting seat 53 are both set horizontally, this will increase the difficulty of installing the heater 52. Therefore, in this embodiment, it is necessary to set one of the first water inlet joint 511 and the heater water inlet joint 532 horizontally and the other vertically, and then connect the vertically set one to the heater 52 through the elbow joint 521. This can facilitate the installation of the heater 52. The seat 53 is a three-way joint, so the depth of its part located below the base 2 is greater than the depth of the part of the first heater mounting seat 51 located below the base 2. Therefore, only by setting the first water inlet joint 511 vertically and the heater water inlet joint 532 horizontally can this height difference be reduced, so that the heater 52 can remain horizontal after being connected between the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53, and the water pressure of the water entering the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53 can be kept basically the same, which can also ensure that the rotation speed and water output of the two spray assemblies 3 are the same when working.

[0060] See also Figure 5 and Figure 8In this embodiment, two mounting grooves 23 are provided on the upper surface of the base 2, and the mounting grooves 23 surround the first water outlet 512 and the second water outlet 533. The two spray arm seats 31 are respectively connected to one mounting groove 23, and the first water outlet 512 and the second water outlet 533 are respectively connected to the water inlet end of one spray arm seat 31. When the spray arm seat 31 is connected to the mounting groove 23, the water inlet end of one spray arm seat 31 is aligned with the first water inlet joint 511 and the first water inlet joint 511 is sealed in the corresponding mounting groove 23, and the water inlet end of the other spray arm seat 31 is aligned with the second water outlet 533, and the second water outlet 533 is sealed in the corresponding mounting groove 23, so that the water in the first heater mounting seat 51 can only enter the corresponding spray arm seat 31 through the first water outlet 512, and the water in the second heater mounting seat 53 can only enter the corresponding spray arm seat 31 through the second water outlet 533, thereby avoiding water leakage from the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53, affecting the flow rate and water volume of the water entering the corresponding spray arm seat 31, and then affecting the rotation speed of the corresponding spray arm 32. In specific application, a fixing column 513 with a screw hole is provided in the first heater mounting seat 51 and the second heater mounting seat 53, and a seat body 311 is provided at one end of the spray arm seat 31 connected to the mounting groove 23. A mounting hole 312 is provided on the seat body 311. The thickness of the seat body 311 is adapted to the depth of the mounting groove 23. When the seat body 311 is installed in the mounting groove 23, the seat body 311 is placed at the upper end of the first water outlet 512, and the mounting hole 312 is aligned with the screw hole on the fixing column 513. That is to say, the seat body 311 is formed by extending outward from the outer contour of the spray arm seat 31. When the spray arm seat 31 is installed in the mounting groove 23, the seat body 311 is just completely placed in the mounting groove 23 and is supported by the upper end of the first water outlet 512 or the second water outlet 533. The upper surface of the seat body 311 is flush with the upper surface of the base 2, and the lower surface of the seat body 311 is covered on the first water outlet 512 or the second water outlet 533. The seat body 311 can be fixed to the mounting groove 23 by passing the screws through the mounting holes 312 on the seat body 311 and the screw holes on the fixing columns 513.

[0061] See also Figure 5 and Figure 11 In this embodiment, a connecting piece 5345 is further provided on the main body of the diverter 534. The side of the connecting piece 5345 close to the fixing column 513 is adapted to the shape of the fixing column 513. A fixing portion with a hole is provided at the top of the connecting piece 5345. The fixing portion is placed at the top of the fixing column 513. When the corresponding spray arm assembly is installed in the mounting groove 23, the seat body 311 is pressed onto the fixing portion and connected to the fixing column 513.

[0062] See also Figure 8In this embodiment, the lower surface of the seat body 311 is provided with a rib. The rib's shape matches the interior shape of the first heater mount 51 and includes a clearance area for the fixing post 513. When the seat body 311 is installed in the mounting groove 23, the rib abuts against the inner wall of the first heater mount 51. This strengthens the connection between the spray arm seat 31 and the mounting groove 23 and allows the seat body 311 to tightly seal the first heater mount 51, preventing water within the first heater mount 51 from escaping through the gap between the seat body 311 and the mounting groove 23. Similarly, the spray arm seat 31 of the spray arm assembly corresponding to the second heater mount 53 also seals the second heater mount 53 in the same manner, preventing water within the second heater mount 53 from escaping through the gap between the seat body 311 and the mounting groove 23.

[0063] See also Figure 4 In this embodiment, the base 2 also includes a cover plate 24. The connecting pipe 42 is formed by the downward depression of the bottom of the water tank 21 and protrudes from the lower surface of the base 2. The upper surface of the cover plate 24 is adapted to the portion of the connecting pipe 42 located on the bottom of the water tank 21. The cover plate 24 is connected to the bottom of the water tank 21 and the connecting pipe 42 is located on the portion of the bottom of the water tank 21, so that the water on the upper surface of the base 2 can only enter the water cup 41 from the water tank 21. Since the connecting pipe 42 is formed by the downward depression of the bottom of the sink 21, the portion of the connecting pipe 42 located at the bottom of the sink 21 is an open structure. If the portion of the connecting pipe 42 located at the sink 21 is not covered by the cover plate 24, the connecting pipe 42 is equivalent to an extension of the bottom of the sink 21 and can be said to be an integral structure with the sink 21. In this way, the connecting pipe 42 is connected to the entire upper surface of the base 2. When the washing pump draws water from the external water supply into the connecting pipe 42, the water pressure in the connecting pipe 42 is relatively low, and the water will directly enter the upper surface of the base 2 through the sink 21, thereby reducing the water flow at the water inlet end of the internal water circuit of the washing machine through the water inlet 423, thereby reducing the flow rate and pressure of the water sprayed by the spray arm of the washing machine. Figure 6In this embodiment, the cover plate 24 includes a cover plate body 241 and a cover plate sidewall 242 extending along the contour edge of the cover plate body 241 toward the lower surface of the cover plate body 241. When the cover plate 24 is installed on the portion of the connecting pipe 42 located at the bottom of the water tank 21, the cover plate sidewall 242 extends into the connecting pipe 42 and is pressed against the inner wall of the connecting pipe 42. The cover plate body 241 is positioned on the portion of the connecting pipe 42 located at the bottom of the water tank 21 and is flush with the bottom of the water tank 21. The waterway structure on the base of this embodiment, by providing the cover plate 24, allows the connecting pipe 42 to remain a tubular joint, and the water inlet 423 is provided at the washing pump joint 421. When the washing pump is started, external water supply can directly enter the water inlet 423 provided at the washing pump joint 421 and enter the water inlet end of the internal waterway of the washing machine without affecting the water flow rate and water pressure at the water inlet 423.

[0064] Referring to Figure 6 , in this embodiment, the height of the portion of the cover sidewall 242 near the upper opening of the water cup 41 is greater than the height of the remaining portion and is lower than the depth of the connecting pipe 42 at the upper opening of the water cup 41. The gap between the end of the connecting pipe 42 near the upper opening of the water cup 41 and the end of the cover sidewall 242 near the upper opening of the water cup 41 forms a communication hole between the connecting pipe 42 and the water cup 41. This communication hole is smaller than the diameter of the connecting pipe 42. As a result, when the washer pump draws water from the water cup 41 into the connecting pipe 42, the water pressure at the communication hole is higher, accelerating the flow of water from the water cup 41 into the connecting pipe 42.

[0065] See also Figures 12 to 14 In this embodiment, the door assembly 6 includes an inner door 63 and an outer door 64. The inner door 63 is connected to the inner side of the outer door 64. The lower end of the outer door 64 is hinged to the base 2 via a door hinge, and the upper end of the outer door 64 is connected to the inner container 1 via a door cord. The fan 62 is located on the inner side of the outer door 64. The air duct assembly 61 is located between the inner door 63 and the outer door 64. The fan 62 is located within the air duct assembly 61. The inner door 63 is provided with an air outlet 631 that communicates with the air duct assembly 61, and the outer door 64 is provided with an air inlet 641 that communicates with the air duct assembly 61. After the capsule dishwasher cleans the dishes, the fan 62 is activated to draw air from the outside into the air duct and then blow it into the inner container 1. The air blown into the inner container 1 by the fan 62 is hot air, which can dry the dishes in the inner container 1 and also perform high-temperature sterilization on the dishes.

[0066] See also Figure 13In this embodiment, the air duct assembly 61 includes an air duct 611 and an air duct cover 612. The air duct 611 is located on the side of the inner door 63 near the outer door 64. The air duct cover 612 is connected to the air duct 611. The fan 62 is located on the air duct 611. When the fan 62 is started, the outside air is sucked into the chamber formed by the air duct 611 and the air duct cover 612 by the fan, and is heated and then discharged into the inner tank 1. Please refer to 13 and Figure 14 In specific applications, the air duct 611 includes an air inlet duct 6111, a fan cavity 6112 and an air outlet cavity 6113. The air inlet duct 6111, the fan cavity 6112 and the air outlet cavity 6113 are connected to each other in sequence. The air inlet end of the air inlet duct 6111 is aligned with the air inlet 641 on the outer door 64. The air outlet 631 is provided on the air outlet cavity 6113 and is located on the side of the inner door 63 away from the outer door 64. The contour of the air duct cover 612 is adapted to the contour of the air inlet duct 6111 and the fan cavity 6112. The air duct cover 612 is connected to the air duct 611 to seal the air duct assembly 61 relative to the chamber between the inner door 63 and the outer door 64. When the fan 62 is started, outside air enters the air inlet duct 6111 through the air inlet 641, then enters the fan 62 through the air inlet duct 6111, is heated, and then enters the air outlet chamber 6113. The air outlet 631 connected to the air outlet chamber 6113 then enters the inner container 1. The inner container 1 is connected only to the chamber enclosed by the air duct 611 and the air duct cover 612, and not to the chamber between the inner door 63 and the outer door 64. This prevents moisture in the inner container 1 from entering the space between the inner and outer doors 63 and 64 when the capsule dishwasher is operating, thereby affecting the performance of other electrical components installed between the inner and outer doors 63 and 64.

[0067] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 15 and Figure 16The capsule dishwasher of the present invention further includes a housing 8, which covers the inner container 1 and the base 2 therein. The housing 8 includes a bottom plate 81, a left side plate 82, a right side plate 83, a top plate 84, and a back plate 85. The top plate 84 is connected to the top of the inner container 1, the bottom plate 81 is connected to the base 2, the upper ends of the left side plate 82 and the right side plate 83 are respectively plugged into the left and right sides of the top plate 84, and the lower ends of the left side plate 82 and the right side plate 83 are respectively plugged into the left and right sides of the bottom plate 81. The upper end of the back plate 85 is plugged into the top plate 84, and the lower end of the back plate 85 is plugged into the bottom plate 81. The left and right sides of the back plate 85 are respectively snap-fitted to the rear sides of the left side plate 82 and the rear sides of the right side plate 83. When assembling the capsule dishwasher, first connect the base 2 to the bottom plate 81 of the shell 8, then install the inner tank 1 on the base 2, and then plug the lower end of the left side plate 82 and the lower end of the right side plate 83 into the left and right sides of the bottom plate 81 respectively. Then, connect the lower end of the back plate 85 to the bottom plate 81, and clamp the left and right sides of the back plate 85 to the rear side of the right side plate 83 and the rear side of the right side plate 83 respectively. Finally, clamp the left, right and rear sides of the top plate 84 to the upper end of the left side plate 82, the upper end of the right side plate 83 and the upper end of the back plate 85 respectively. During the assembly of the dishwasher, once the spray assembly 3, external water channel 4, heating water channel 5 are connected to the base 2, the base 2 is connected to the bottom plate 81, and the inner tank 1 is connected to the base 2, there is no need to rotate the inner tank 1 or lie down during the installation of the left side panel 82, the right side panel 83, the top panel 84 and the back panel 85. This can prevent other surfaces of the shell 8 from being crushed during assembly and makes assembly easier.

[0068] The present invention also discloses the assembly process of the housing 8, please refer to Figure 15 and Figure 16 In a specific application, the bottom plate 81 is U-shaped, with two side edges extending upward from the left and right sides of the bottom plate 81. The two side edges are integrally formed with the main body of the bottom plate 81 and smoothly connected. The inner walls of the two side edges protrude upward and are composed of a plurality of first plug-in portions 811. The lower ends of the left and right panels 82 and 83 are provided with first slots 821 adapted to the first plug-in portions 811. When the left and right panels 82 and 83 are connected to the bottom plate 81, the lower end of the left panel 82 is connected to the side edge extending from the left side of the bottom plate 81, and the first plug-in portion 811 on the side edge extending from the left side of the bottom plate 81 is inserted into the first slot 821 at the lower end of the left panel 82. The lower end of the right panel 83 is then connected to the side edge extending from the right side of the bottom plate 81, and the first plug-in portion 811 on the side edge extending from the right side of the bottom plate 81 is inserted into the first slot 821 at the lower end of the right panel 83. In this way, the left and right panels 82 and 83 are connected to the bottom plate 81.

[0069] In this embodiment, the rear edges of the bottom plate 81, left side plate 82, and right side plate 83 are provided with support grooves 812 recessed toward the washing chamber. A plurality of first clips 822 are provided inside the support grooves 812 on the rear sides of the left side plate 82 and right side plate 83. The left and right sides of the back plate 85 are provided with a plurality of second clips 851 that mate with the first clips 822. When assembling the back plate 85, the back plate 85 is installed from top to bottom, with the edges of the back plate 85 sliding down along the support grooves 812 on the left side plate 82 and right side plate 83 until the lower end of the back plate 85 slides into the support groove 812 at the rear end of the bottom plate 81. At this point, the first clips 822 and the second clips 851 are fastened together. This completes the assembly of the back plate 85.

[0070] In this embodiment, a first support portion 823 perpendicular to the left and right panels 82 and 83 is extended from the inner side of the upper end of the left and right panels 82 and 83. A second clip 824 parallel to the left and right panels 82 and 83 is extended upward from the side of the first support portion 823 away from the left and right panels 82 and 83. The upper end of the back panel 85 is provided with a second plug-in portion 852. The top panel 84 is U-shaped, and side edges are extended downward on the left and right sides of the top panel 84. The lower end of the side edges is provided with a clip portion 84. 1. A second slot 842 is provided at the lower rear end of the top plate 84. When assembling the top plate 84, the left and right clamping portions 841 of the top plate 84 are respectively inserted into the second clamping portions 824 of the left and right plates 82 and 83. The lower ends of the left and right clamping portions 841 of the top plate 84 are supported by the first supporting portions 823. At the same time, the second slot 842 provided at the lower rear end of the top plate 84 is inserted into the second plugging portion 852 at the upper end of the back plate 85. This completes the assembly of the top plate 84.

[0071] In this embodiment, the top surface of the top plate 84 is provided with a downwardly recessed mounting groove, within which is a handle 9. The handle 9 extends through the top plate 84 and connects to the inner container 1. The upper surface of the handle 9 is flush with the upper surface of the top plate 84. To move the capsule dishwasher, the user lifts the handle to move it to a suitable location. Furthermore, the handle 9 is connected to the inner container 1. When the handle 9 is lifted, it pulls the inner container 1 rather than the top plate 84, thus preventing the top plate 84 from being pulled down. The capsule dishwasher of this embodiment is provided with a handle 9. By applying force to the handle 9, the capsule dishwasher can be moved, allowing it to be placed in any desired location as needed.

[0072] In the capsule dishwasher of the present invention, the depth of the washing cavity is greater than its width, that is, the length of the inner tank 1 is greater than its width. In this way, when the capsule dishwasher is placed on the stove, the length of the capsule dishwasher can fully utilize the depth (width) of the stove, and the width of the inner tank will not occupy a large stove space; at the same time, the capsule dishwasher is provided with a special heating water channel 5, which separates the heater from the external water channel 4, thereby reducing the position occupied by the external water channel 4 on the base 2, so that the external water channel 4 can also adapt to the size of the base 2, without increasing the overall size of the dishwasher, especially the size in the width direction of the dishwasher; in addition, the capsule dishwasher has an external water tank 7. When the use site is not provided with a water inlet joint and a drainage joint, the dishwasher can also supply washing water through the water tank 7 when working, and can also store sewage after washing through the water tank 7, so that the capsule dishwasher can be used in more occasions and more easily popularized.

[0073] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
