Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a dishwasher. Background Art

[0002] As people's living standards improve, dishwashers, as a cleaning device for washing tableware, are becoming more and more popular. Dishwashers wash tableware by passing cleaning liquid into the tableware inside the dishwasher, so that the tableware is washed by the cleaning liquid.

[0003] In the related art, in order to improve the cleaning effect of the dishwasher on the tableware, when the dishwasher washes the tableware, hot water of a certain temperature is usually used to clean the grease on the tableware and disinfect the tableware.

[0004] In this way, after the dishwasher finishes cleaning the dishes, there will be a certain amount of water vapor in the inner tank. As the temperature inside the inner tank drops, the water vapor will condense into water and remain in the inner tank, which will cause bacteria to grow in the inner tank and affect the cleaning effect of the dishwasher. Utility Model Content

[0005] An embodiment of the utility model provides a dishwasher, which is used to solve the problem that after the dishwasher finishes washing dishes, steam in an inner tank condenses and remains in the inner tank, causing bacteria to grow in the inner tank.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, in the first aspect of the present application, a dishwasher is provided, comprising a shell, an inner tank, a ventilation member and a power member. A accommodating cavity is formed in the shell. The inner tank is arranged in the accommodating cavity, and the inner tank is formed with a cavity and an air inlet and an air outlet connected to the cavity. The ventilation member is arranged in the accommodating cavity and connected to the inner tank, and an air inlet cavity and an air outlet cavity separated from each other are formed in the ventilation member, the air inlet cavity is connected to the air inlet hole, and the air outlet cavity is connected to the air outlet hole. The ventilation member is also formed with an air inlet channel connected to the air inlet cavity. The power member is arranged on the air inlet side of the air inlet channel, and is used to transport the air outside the inner tank to the air inlet cavity.

[0007] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, since the air inlet cavity of the ventilation member is connected with the air inlet hole, the air inlet channel of the ventilation member is connected with the air inlet cavity of the ventilation member, and the power member is located on the air inlet side of the air inlet channel, when the dishwasher completes cleaning of the dishes, the power member can be operated to transport the air outside the dishwasher to the air inlet cavity through the air inlet channel, and allow the air entering the air inlet cavity to enter the cavity of the inner tank through the air inlet hole.

[0008] At this time, since the air outlet cavity of the ventilation member is connected to the air outlet hole, the air entering the cavity of the inner liner will flow into the air outlet cavity through the air outlet hole. During the flow of air, the steam in the cavity of the inner liner can flow with it, so that the steam in the cavity enters the air outlet cavity from the air outlet hole, and then the steam is discharged to the outside of the inner liner.

[0009] In this way, with the continuous flow of air, the steam in the cavity will gradually decrease, which can prevent a large amount of steam from condensing in the cavity and forming residual condensed water, thereby preventing the residual condensed water from breeding bacteria in the cavity, thereby improving the dishwasher's cleaning effect on tableware.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present application, the dishwasher further comprises a base, which is disposed in the accommodating cavity and connected to one side of the inner container. A power member is connected to the base, and the power member comprises a housing and a fan, the interior of the housing is communicated with the exterior of the accommodating cavity, the fan is disposed in the housing, and the air inlet channel is communicated with the interior of the housing.

[0011] By arranging the power part on the base, the base can support the power part, so that the power part can be stably arranged in the accommodating cavity. Through the arrangement of the outer shell, when the fan sucks the air outside the dishwasher into the air inlet cavity, the air outside the dishwasher will first enter the outer shell, and then enter the air inlet cavity through the air inlet channel. In this way, the air will gather in the outer shell before entering the air inlet channel, thereby preventing the air from being diffused too much, so that more air can enter the air inlet channel, thereby ensuring the rate at which the fan introduces air into the air inlet cavity.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation member includes a body and a partition. An air guide cavity with an opening on one side is formed in the body, and the outer wall of the inner liner covers the opening of the air guide cavity and is connected to the body. The partition is located in the air guide cavity and is connected to the body to separate the air guide cavity into an air inlet cavity and an air outlet cavity.

[0013] In this way, when processing the air inlet cavity and the air outlet cavity, the air guide cavity can be processed on the main body first, and then the partition can be connected to the main body and to the inner liner, so that the partition can separate the air guide cavity into the air inlet cavity and the air outlet cavity. This can facilitate the processing of the main body, thereby facilitating the formation of the air inlet cavity and the air outlet cavity.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, the partition includes a first sub-partition and a second sub-partition. The first sub-partition is connected between the outer wall of the inner liner and the bottom wall of the air guide cavity, and along the first direction, one end of the first sub-partition is connected to one side wall of the air guide cavity. The first direction is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the inner liner and the base, and perpendicular to the depth direction of the air guide cavity. The second sub-partition is connected between the outer wall of the inner liner and the bottom wall of the air guide cavity, and along the arrangement direction of the inner liner and the base, one end of the second sub-partition is connected to the side wall of the air guide cavity close to the base, and the other end of the second sub-partition is connected to the other end of the first sub-partition in the first direction.

[0015] Through the above arrangement, along the first direction, the two sides of the second sub-partition are the air inlet cavity and the air outlet cavity respectively. Since the power member is connected to the base, the power member is located at the lower side of the ventilation member. In this way, when the air inlet cavity is connected to the inside of the shell, a through hole can be directly opened on one of the multiple side plates close to the base, and the through hole is connected to the air inlet channel, so that the length of the air inlet channel connecting the air inlet cavity and the inside of the shell can be reduced, thereby facilitating the connection between the ventilation member and the power member.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, the body includes a cover plate and a plurality of side plates. Along the depth direction of the air guide cavity, the cover plate is arranged opposite to the outer side wall of the inner liner. The plurality of side plates are arranged around the depth direction of the air guide cavity and are connected end to end in sequence. The plurality of side plates are connected between the cover plate and the outer side wall of the inner liner to enclose the air guide cavity with the cover plate and the outer side wall of the inner liner.

[0017] In this way, the space volume of the air guide cavity formed by the multiple side panels and the cover plate is larger, so when the air flows into the air guide cavity, it can flow more smoothly inside the air guide cavity.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, the inner container has a first side wall in the horizontal direction, the first side wall covers the opening of the air guide cavity and is connected to the body. The air inlet and the air outlet are opened on the first side wall, and along the depth direction of the air guide cavity, the air inlet overlaps with the air inlet cavity, and the air outlet overlaps with the air outlet cavity.

[0019] In this way, when processing the ventilation member, the body can be set to a shape corresponding to the first side wall, and the opening of the air guide cavity can be set on a side surface of the body, which can facilitate the processing of the body. At the same time, because the air inlet hole overlaps with the air inlet cavity, and the air outlet hole overlaps with the air outlet cavity, the air inlet hole can be directly connected to the air inlet cavity through the opening of the air guide cavity, and the air outlet hole can be directly connected to the air outlet cavity through the opening of the air guide cavity, so there is no need to set a connecting pipe to connect the air inlet hole and the air inlet cavity, and there is no need to set a connecting pipe to connect the air outlet hole and the air outlet cavity, which can facilitate the installation of the ventilation member.

[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, the air inlet is located on a side of the air outlet close to the base.

[0021] Through the above arrangement, since the air inlet is located on the side of the air outlet close to the base, the air outside the dishwasher can flow directly to the lower part of the cavity after entering the cavity, thereby avoiding too thorough mixing with the steam in the cavity during the sinking process of the air, thereby reducing the heat exchange between air and steam, thereby reducing the amount of steam condensation in the cavity, and further reducing the amount of condensed water in the cavity.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation member further includes a drainage pipe. The water inlet end of the drainage pipe is connected to the air outlet cavity, and the water outlet end of the drainage pipe is connected to the waste liquid pipe of the dishwasher. And / or, the ventilation member further includes an exhaust pipe, the water inlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the air outlet cavity, and the water outlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the interior of the housing.

[0023] Through the above arrangement, the condensed water in the air outlet cavity can enter the waste liquid pipe of the dishwasher, so that the waste liquid pipe of the dishwasher discharges the condensed water in the air outlet cavity from the air outlet cavity to the outside of the dishwasher, thereby preventing the condensed water generated by steam from accumulating in the air outlet cavity. And because the housing is connected to the outside of the dishwasher, the air outlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the inside of the housing, so that the air in the air outlet cavity can be discharged from the air outlet cavity to the outside of the dishwasher through the housing.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation member further comprises a drainage pipe and an exhaust pipe, one end of the drainage pipe and one end of the exhaust pipe are both connected to the air outlet cavity, and the other end of the drainage pipe and the other end of the exhaust pipe are both connected to the outside of the dishwasher. The exhaust pipe is located on a side of the drainage pipe away from the second sub-partition.

[0025] Through the above arrangement, since the air inlet cavity and the air outlet cavity are located on both sides of the second sub-partition in the first direction, during the condensation of steam in the air outlet cavity, a large amount of condensed water generated by the steam will adhere to the surface of one side of the second sub-partition close to the air outlet cavity, and then flow to one of the multiple side panels close to the base under the action of gravity. Since the exhaust duct is located on the side of the drainage duct away from the second sub-partition, when the condensed water flows on one of the multiple side panels close to the base, the condensed water will first flow into the drainage duct, thus preventing a large amount of condensed water from entering the exhaust duct, thereby reducing the amount of condensed water entering the shell, thereby ensuring the normal function of the fan.

[0026] In a second aspect of the present application, a dishwasher is provided, comprising a housing, an inner tank, and a ventilation assembly. A receiving cavity is formed in the housing. The inner tank is arranged in the receiving cavity, and the inner tank is formed with a cavity and an air inlet and an air outlet communicated with the cavity. The ventilation assembly is arranged in the receiving cavity, the ventilation assembly is connected to the inner tank, and the ventilation assembly is communicated with the air inlet, and is used to transport the air outside the inner tank to the inner tank through the air inlet, and transport the medium in the inner tank to the outside of the inner tank through the air outlet.

[0027] The dishwasher provided in the second aspect of the present application can achieve the same beneficial effects as the above technical solution, so it will not be described in detail here. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplarily" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0054] As people's living standards improve, dishwashers, as a cleaning device for washing tableware, are becoming more and more popular. Dishwashers wash tableware by passing cleaning liquid into the tableware inside the dishwasher, so that the tableware is washed by the cleaning liquid.

[0055] Based on this, the present application provides a dishwasher, which includes a housing. A receiving cavity and a first opening communicating with the receiving cavity are formed in the housing. Exemplarily, the first opening is opened on one side of the housing in the horizontal direction.

[0056] like Figure 1As shown, the dishwasher 01 further includes an inner tank 1. The inner tank 1 is disposed in the accommodating cavity and connected to the housing. The inner tank 1 is used to place dishes to be washed. Specifically, the inner tank 1 is formed with a cavity 11 and a second opening connected to the cavity 11. The dishes to be washed can be placed in the cavity 11 through the second opening.

[0057] The second opening and the first opening are oriented in the same direction, so that dishes to be washed can be placed into the cavity 11 through the first opening and the second opening. Exemplarily, the plane where the first opening is located coincides with the plane where the second opening is located. Exemplarily, the plane where the first opening is located is parallel to the plane where the second opening is located. In this case, the distance between the plane where the first opening is located and the plane where the second opening is located is small, and the plane where the second opening is located is located on the side of the plane where the first opening is located close to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity.

[0058] The dishwasher 01 further includes a door body, which is connected to the first opening and is used to open or close the first opening.

[0059] When the dishes to be washed need to be washed, the user can open the door of the dishwasher 01, put the dishes to be washed into the cavity 11, then close the door, and start the corresponding program on the dishwasher 01, so that the dishwasher 01 can wash the dishes.

[0060] like Figure 2 As shown, the dishwasher 01 further includes a base 2, which is disposed in the accommodating cavity and connected to one side of the inner pot 1. Specifically, the base 2 is disposed on the lower side of the inner pot 1, and the base 2 is used to provide support for the inner pot 1, so that the inner pot 1 can be stably disposed in the accommodating cavity.

[0061] In some examples, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 2 includes a bottom plate 21 and a plurality of brackets 22. The bottom plate 21 is located at the lower side of the inner pot 1 and is spaced apart from the inner pot 1. The plurality of brackets 22 are connected between the bottom plate 21 and the inner pot 1 and are connected to both the bottom plate 21 and the inner pot 1.

[0062] In this way, a certain space is formed between the bottom plate 21 and the inner tank 1, so that the working parts of the dishwasher 01 can be arranged in the space.

[0063] In some examples, the working parts include a water outlet pipe, a water inlet pipe and a water pump, and the water outlet pipe, the water inlet pipe and the motor are all arranged between the bottom plate 21 and the inner tank 1.

[0064] The water inlet pipe is connected to the cavity 11 of the inner tank 1 and is used to introduce cleaning water into the cavity 11 of the inner tank 1. The water outlet pipe is connected to the cavity 11 of the inner tank 1 and is used to discharge the sewage in the inner tank 1 from the inner tank 1 after the dishwasher 01 finishes cleaning the dishes. The water pump is connected to the water inlet pipe and is used to generate water pressure to make the cleaning water flow in the water inlet pipe.

[0065] In order to improve the cleaning effect of the dishwasher 01 on the tableware, when the dishwasher 01 cleans the tableware, the cleaning water introduced into the cavity 11 is usually heated so that the hot water can be used to clean the grease on the tableware and disinfect the tableware.

[0066] In this way, after the dishwasher 01 finishes cleaning the dishes, there will be a certain amount of water vapor in the inner tank 1. As the temperature in the inner tank 1 decreases, the water vapor will condense into water and remain in the inner tank 1, which will cause bacteria to grow in the inner tank 1 and affect the cleaning effect of the dishwasher 01.

[0067] In order to avoid the above problems, in some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the inner tank 1 is formed with an air inlet 1A and an air outlet 1B connected to the cavity 11. The dishwasher 01 also includes a ventilation assembly 3, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity. The ventilation assembly 3 is connected to the inner tank 1, and the ventilation assembly 3 is connected to the air inlet 1A, and is used to transport the air outside the inner tank 1 to the inner tank 1 through the air inlet 1A, and transport the medium in the inner tank 1 to the outside of the inner tank 1 through the air outlet 1B. The medium in the inner tank 1 includes the air in the cavity 11 and the steam generated during the dishwashing process.

[0068] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the ventilation assembly 3 includes a ventilation member 31 and a power member 32. The ventilation member 31 is disposed in the accommodating cavity and connected to the inner liner 1. The ventilation member 31 is formed with an air inlet cavity 3A and an air outlet cavity 3B separated from each other. The air inlet cavity 3A is connected to the air inlet hole 1A, and the air outlet cavity 3B is connected to the air outlet hole 1B.

[0069] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the ventilation member 31 is also formed with an air inlet passage 33 communicating with the air inlet cavity 3A. The power member 32 is arranged at the air inlet side of the air inlet passage 33, and is used to transport the air outside the inner liner 1 to the air inlet cavity 3A.

[0070] Exemplarily, the ventilation member 31 may be disposed in the cavity 11 on the inner side of the inner liner 1 , or may be disposed on the outer side of the inner liner 1 .

[0071] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, since the air inlet chamber 3A of the ventilation member 31 is connected with the air inlet hole 1A, the air inlet channel 33 of the ventilation member 31 is connected with the air inlet chamber 3A of the ventilation member 31, and the power member 32 is located on the air inlet side of the air inlet channel 33, when the dishwasher 01 completes cleaning of the dishes, the power member 32 can be operated to transport the air outside the dishwasher 01 to the air inlet chamber 3A through the air inlet channel 33, and allow the air entering the air inlet chamber 3A to enter the cavity 11 of the inner tank 1 through the air inlet hole 1A.

[0072] At this time, since the air outlet cavity 3B of the ventilation member 31 is connected to the air outlet hole 1B, the air entering the cavity 11 of the inner liner 1 will flow into the air outlet cavity 3B through the air outlet hole 1B. During the flow of air, the steam in the cavity 11 of the inner liner 1 can be driven to flow with it, so that the steam in the cavity 11 enters the air outlet cavity 3B from the air outlet hole 1B, and the steam is discharged to the outside of the inner liner 1.

[0073] In this way, as the air continues to flow, the steam in the cavity 11 will gradually decrease, which can prevent a large amount of steam from condensing in the cavity 11 and forming residual condensed water, thereby preventing the residual condensed water from breeding bacteria in the cavity 11, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the dishwasher 01 on tableware.

[0074] At the same time, when the air outside the dishwasher 01 enters the cavity 11 under the action of the power member 32, it can drive the air inside the cavity 11 to flow around the tableware, which can accelerate the drying process of the tableware.

[0075] Since the temperature of the air outside the dishwasher 01 is lower than the temperature of the steam in the cavity 11, the density of the air outside the dishwasher 01 will be greater than the density of the steam in the cavity 11. When the air outside the dishwasher 01 enters the cavity 11, the air outside the dishwasher 01 will sink to the lower part of the cavity 11, while the steam inside the dishwasher 01 will gather at the upper part of the cavity 11.

[0076] Under the above conditions, in some embodiments, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the air inlet 1A is located on a side of the air outlet 1B close to the base 2 .

[0077] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, since the air inlet 1A is located on the side of the air outlet 1B close to the base 2, the air outside the dishwasher 01 can flow directly to the lower part of the cavity 11 after entering the cavity 11, thereby avoiding too thorough mixing of the air with the steam in the cavity 11 during the sinking process, thereby reducing the heat exchange between air and steam, thereby reducing the condensation amount of steam in the cavity 11, and further reducing the amount of condensed water in the cavity 11.

[0078] Furthermore, the air outlet 1B is located on the side of the air inlet 1A away from the base 2. When the air flows toward the air outlet 1B, a large amount of steam will be driven into the air outlet 1B first, and then discharged from the air outlet 1B to the outside of the cavity 11. In this way, the steam can be quickly discharged from the cavity 11 to further reduce the amount of steam condensation in the cavity 11, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the dishwasher 01.

[0079] Based on the above, in some embodiments, such as Fig. 9As shown, the power component 32 is connected to the base 2, and the power component 32 includes a shell 321 and a fan (not shown in the figure). The interior of the shell 321 is connected to the outside of the accommodating cavity, the fan is arranged in the shell 321, and the air inlet channel 33 is connected to the interior of the shell 321.

[0080] Exemplarily, the fan may be an axial flow fan, a diagonal flow fan, or the like.

[0081] Through the above arrangement, after the dishwasher 01 completes the cleaning work, the fan will rotate to suck the air outside the dishwasher 01 into the outer shell 321, and blow the air in the outer shell 321 into the air inlet cavity 3A through the air inlet channel 33, so that the air in the air inlet cavity 3A can enter the cavity 11 of the inner tank 1 and flow in the cavity 11 to discharge the steam in the cavity 11 to the outside of the cavity 11.

[0082] Through the setting of the housing 321, when the fan sucks the air outside the dishwasher 01 into the air inlet chamber 3A, the air outside the dishwasher 01 will first enter the housing 321, and then enter the air inlet chamber 3A through the air inlet passage 33. In this way, the air will gather in the housing 321 before entering the air inlet passage 33, thereby preventing the air from being excessively diffused, so that more air can enter the air inlet passage 33, thereby ensuring the speed at which the fan introduces air into the air inlet chamber 3A.

[0083] At the same time, by setting the power component 32 on the base 2, the base 2 can support the power component 32, so that the power component 32 can be stably set in the accommodating cavity, and the space on the base 2 can be fully used, thereby improving the utilization rate of the internal space of the dishwasher 01.

[0084] In some embodiments, the ventilation member 31 includes a mounting shell, which is connected to the outer wall of the inner liner 1, and an air inlet cavity 3A and an air outlet cavity 3B separated from each other are formed inside the mounting shell.

[0085] The mounting shell is formed with a first through hole communicating with the air inlet cavity 3A, and the first through hole is communicated with the air inlet hole 1A on the inner liner 1. The mounting shell is also formed with a second through hole communicating with the air outlet cavity 3B, and the second through hole is communicated with the air outlet hole 1B on the inner liner 1.

[0086] In other embodiments, Fig.10 , Fig.11 As shown, the ventilation member 31 includes a main body 311 , in which an air guide cavity 3C with an opening on one side is formed, and the outer wall of the inner liner 1 covers the opening of the air guide cavity 3C and is connected to the main body 311 .

[0087] Specifically, the body 311 includes a cover plate 3111 and a plurality of side plates 3112. Along the depth direction of the air guiding cavity 3C, the cover plate 3111 is arranged opposite to the outer side wall of the liner 1. The plurality of side plates 3112 are arranged around the depth direction of the air guiding cavity 3C and are connected end to end in sequence. The plurality of side plates 3112 are all connected between the cover plate 3111 and the outer side wall of the liner 1 to enclose the air guiding cavity 3C with the cover plate 3111 and the outer side wall of the liner 1.

[0088] Exemplarily, the plurality of side panels 3112 may be an integrally formed structure or a split structure.

[0089] Exemplarily, the plurality of side panels 3112 and the inner liner 1 may be an integrally formed structure or a separate structure.

[0090] Exemplarily, the plurality of side panels 3112 and the cover panel 3111 may be an integrally formed structure or a separate structure.

[0091] In this way, the space volume of the air guide cavity 3C formed by the multiple side panels 3112 and the cover plate 3111 is larger, so when the air flows into the air guide cavity 3C, it can flow more smoothly inside the air guide cavity 3C.

[0092] For example, Fig.12 , Fig.13 As shown, the air outlet 1B and the air inlet 1A are located on two different side walls of the inner liner 1. For example, the air outlet 1B and the air inlet 1A are located on two adjacent side walls of the inner liner 1, the body 311 of the ventilation member 31 is an L-shaped structure, the opening of the air guide cavity 3C is also L-shaped, and the body 311 covers the two side walls of the inner liner 1 at the same time.

[0093] Exemplarily, the air outlet 1B and the air inlet 1A are located on the same side wall of the inner liner 1. Specifically, Fig.14 As shown, along the horizontal direction, the inner container 1 has a first side wall 12 , and the first side wall 12 covers the opening of the air guide cavity 3C and is connected to the body 311 .

[0094] The first side wall 12 may be one of the two side walls on the inner container 1 that are adjacent to the second opening, or may be a side wall on the inner container 1 that is opposite to the second opening.

[0095] The air inlet 1A and the air outlet 1B are formed on the first side wall 12 . Along the depth direction of the air guiding cavity 3C, the air inlet 1A overlaps with the air inlet cavity 3A, and the air outlet 1B overlaps with the air outlet cavity 3B.

[0096] In this way, when processing the ventilation member 31 , the main body 311 can be set to a shape corresponding to the first side wall 12 , and the opening of the air guide cavity 3C can be set on a side surface of the main body 311 , which can facilitate the processing of the main body 311 .

[0097] like Fig.15 As shown, the ventilation member 31 further includes a partition 312, which is located in the air guiding cavity 3C and connected to the body 311 to separate the air guiding cavity 3C into an air inlet cavity 3A and an air outlet cavity 3B.

[0098] Specifically, the side of the partition 312 close to the inner liner 1 is connected to the inner liner 1, and the side of the partition 312 away from the inner liner 1 is connected to the cover plate 3111. Along the direction perpendicular to the depth direction of the air guide cavity 3C, both ends of the partition 312 are respectively connected to at least one of the multiple side plates 3112.

[0099] Exemplarily, both ends of the partition 312 are connected to one of the plurality of side plates 3112. At this time, the partition 312 includes a first partition plate and a second partition plate, one end of the first partition plate and one end of the second partition plate are both connected to one of the plurality of side plates 3112, and the other end of the first partition plate is connected to the other end of the second partition plate.

[0100] Exemplarily, both ends of the partition 312 are connected to two of the plurality of side panels 3112. For example, both ends of the partition 312 are connected to two adjacent ones of the plurality of side panels 3112. For example, both ends of the partition 312 are connected to two opposite ones of the plurality of side panels 3112. At this time, the partition 312 includes a first partition plate, and the plurality of side panels 3112 include a first sub-side panel and a second sub-side panel that are arranged opposite to each other, one end of the first partition plate is connected to the first sub-side panel, and the other end of the first partition plate is connected to the second sub-side panel.

[0101] Exemplarily, the partition 312 and the body 311 may be an integrally formed structure or a separate structure.

[0102] In this way, when processing the air inlet cavity 3A and the air outlet cavity 3B, the air guide cavity 3C can be processed on the main body 311 first, and then the air guide cavity 3C can be separated by the partition plate 312 to form the air inlet cavity 3A and the air outlet cavity 3B.

[0103] Since the air inlet hole 1A overlaps with the air inlet cavity 3A, and the air outlet hole 1B overlaps with the air outlet cavity 3B, the air inlet hole 1A can be directly connected with the air inlet cavity 3A through the opening of the air guide cavity 3C, and the air outlet hole 1B can be directly connected with the air outlet cavity 3B through the opening of the air guide cavity 3C. Therefore, there is no need to set a connecting pipe to connect the air inlet hole 1A and the air inlet cavity 3A, and there is no need to set a connecting pipe to connect the air outlet hole 1B and the air outlet cavity 3B. This facilitates the installation of the ventilation component 31.

[0104] In order to facilitate the air flow in the air inlet cavity 3A and the air outlet cavity 3B, in some embodiments, as Fig.16 As shown, the partition 312 includes a first sub-partition plate 3121 and a second sub-partition plate 3122 .

[0105] The first sub-partition 3121 is connected between the outer wall of the inner container 1 and the bottom wall of the air guide cavity 3C, and extends along the first direction ( Fig.16 The first direction is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the inner container 1 and the base 2, and perpendicular to the depth direction of the air guiding cavity 3C.

[0106] The second sub-partition 3122 is connected between the outer wall of the inner liner 1 and the bottom wall of the air guide cavity 3C, and along the arrangement direction of the inner liner 1 and the base 2, one end of the second sub-partition 3122 is connected to the side wall of the air guide cavity 3C close to the base 2, and the other end of the second sub-partition 3122 is connected to the other end of the first sub-partition 3121 in the first direction.

[0107] For example, Fig.16 As shown, the first sub-partition 3121 and the second sub-partition 3122 separate the air guide cavity 3C into a first cavity M and a second cavity N.

[0108] Specifically, the plurality of side panels 3112 include a first sub-panel 31A, a second sub-panel 31B, a third sub-panel 31C and a fourth sub-panel 31D.

[0109] The thickness direction of the first sub-plate 31A is consistent with the arrangement direction of the inner liner and the base, and is connected to the side of the second sub-plate 3122 close to the base. Along the arrangement direction of the inner liner and the base, the second sub-plate 31B is arranged opposite to the first sub-plate 31A, and is located on the side of the first sub-plate 31A away from the base. The third sub-plate 31C is connected between the first sub-plate 31A and the second sub-plate 31B, and along the first direction, the third sub-plate 31C is located on the side of the second sub-plate 3122 away from the first sub-plate 3121. The fourth sub-plate 31D is connected to the side of the first sub-plate 31A away from the third sub-plate 31C, and is arranged opposite to the third sub-plate 31C, and the side of the fourth sub-plate 31D close to the third sub-plate 31C is connected to the first sub-plate 3121.

[0110] The first sub-plate 31A includes a first plate segment 31A1 and a second plate segment 31A2. The first plate segment 31A1 is located on a side of the second sub-plate 3122 close to the third sub-plate 31C, and is connected to both the second sub-plate 3122 and the third sub-plate 31C. The second plate segment 31A2 is located on a side of the second sub-plate 3122 close to the fourth sub-plate 31D, and is connected to both the second sub-plate 3122 and the fourth sub-plate 31D.

[0111] The fourth sub-plate 31D includes a third plate segment 31B1 and a fourth plate segment 31B2. The third plate segment 31B1 is located on a side of the first sub-plate 3121 close to the first sub-plate 31A, and is connected to both the first sub-plate 3121 and the first sub-plate 31A. The fourth plate segment 31B2 is located on a side of the first sub-plate 3121 close to the second sub-plate 31B, and is connected to both the first sub-plate 3121 and the second sub-plate 31B.

[0112] The first plate segment 31A1, the third sub-plate 31C, the second sub-plate 31B, the fourth plate segment 31B2, the first sub-partition 3121 and the second sub-partition 3122 are sequentially connected and enclose a first cavity M. The second sub-partition 3122, the first sub-partition 3121, the third plate segment 31B1 and the second plate segment 31A2 are sequentially connected and enclose a second cavity N.

[0113] Among them, Fig.16 As shown, the first cavity M may be an air inlet cavity 3A, and the second cavity N may be an air outlet cavity 3B. Fig.17 As shown, the first cavity M may be the air outlet cavity 3B, and the second cavity N may be the air inlet cavity 3A.

[0114] Through the above arrangement, along the first direction, the two sides of the second sub-partition 3122 are the air inlet chamber 3A and the air outlet chamber 3B respectively. Since the power member 32 is connected to the base 2, the power member 32 is located at the lower side of the ventilation member 31. In this way, when the air inlet chamber 3A is connected to the inside of the shell 321, a through hole can be directly opened on one of the multiple side plates 3112 close to the base 2, and the through hole is connected to the air inlet channel 33. In this way, the length of the air inlet channel 33 connecting the air inlet chamber 3A and the inside of the shell 321 can be reduced, thereby facilitating the connection between the ventilation member 31 and the power member 32.

[0115] In some examples, such as Fig.17 As shown, the second cavity N is the air inlet cavity 3A, the first cavity M is the air outlet cavity 3B, the air inlet hole 1A is opened on the side of the first sub-partition 3121 close to the base 2, and the air outlet hole 1B is opened on the side of the first sub-partition 3121 away from the base 2.

[0116] Since the two sides of the second sub-partition 3122 along the first direction are the air inlet chamber 3A and the air outlet chamber 3B respectively, when the steam in the cavity 11 is discharged to the outside of the dishwasher 01 through the fan, the steam on one side of the second sub-partition 3122 will exchange heat with the air on the other side of the second sub-partition 3122, and the heat in the steam will be transferred to the air on the other side of the second sub-partition 3122.

[0117] In this way, part of the steam will condense into water droplets and adhere to one side of the second sub-partition 3122, and then flow along the second sub-partition 3122 to the first plate segment 31A1, thereby accumulating in the air outlet cavity 3B.

[0118] In order to avoid the above problems, in some embodiments, Fig.18 , Fig.19 As shown, the ventilation member 31 also includes a drainage pipe 34 and an exhaust pipe 35, one end of the drainage pipe 34 and one end of the exhaust pipe 35 are both connected to the air outlet chamber 3B, and the other end of the drainage pipe 34 and the other end of the exhaust pipe 35 are both connected to the outside of the dishwasher 01.

[0119] For example, the water inlet of the drainage pipe 34 is connected to the air outlet chamber 3B, and the water outlet of the drainage pipe 34 is connected to the waste liquid pipe of the dishwasher 01. In this way, the condensed water in the air outlet chamber 3B can be discharged from the air outlet chamber 3B to the outside of the dishwasher 01 through the waste liquid pipe of the dishwasher 01, thereby preventing the condensed water generated by the steam from accumulating in the air outlet chamber 3B.

[0120] Exemplarily, the air inlet end of the exhaust duct 35 is in communication with the air outlet cavity 3B, and the air outlet end of the exhaust duct 35 is in communication with the interior of the housing 321. Since the housing 321 is in communication with the exterior of the dishwasher 01, the air outlet end of the exhaust duct 35 is in communication with the interior of the housing 321, so that the air in the air outlet cavity 3B can be discharged from the air outlet cavity 3B to the outside of the dishwasher 01 through the housing 321.

[0121] like Fig.19 , Fig. 20 As shown, the exhaust pipe 35 is located on the side of the drain pipe 34 away from the second sub-partition 3122.

[0122] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, since the air inlet chamber 3A and the air outlet chamber 3B are located on both sides of the second sub-partition 3122 in the first direction, during the condensation of steam in the air outlet chamber 3B, a large amount of condensed water generated by the steam will adhere to the surface of one side of the second sub-partition 3122 close to the air outlet chamber 3B, and then flow to a side plate 3112 close to the base 2 among the multiple side plates 3112 under the action of gravity.

[0123] Since the exhaust duct 35 is located on the side of the drain duct 34 away from the second sub-partition 3122, when the condensed water flows on a side plate 3112 close to the base 2 among the multiple side plates 3112, the condensed water will first flow into the drain duct 34. This can prevent a large amount of condensed water from entering the exhaust duct 35, thereby reducing the amount of condensed water entering the interior of the outer shell 321, thereby ensuring the normal function of the fan.

[0124] When the air in the air outlet chamber 3B is discharged to the outside of the dishwasher 01 through the outer shell 321, some steam will remain in the outer shell 321. Since the fan is arranged in the outer shell 321, the residual steam in the outer shell 321 may be sucked into the air inlet chamber 3A by the fan, and then re-enter the cavity 11, which will affect the rate at which the steam in the cavity 11 is discharged from the cavity 11.

[0125] To avoid the above problems, in some examples, the volume of the air inlet cavity 3A is smaller than the volume of the air outlet cavity 3B.

[0126] In this way, during the flow of steam in the air outlet chamber 3B, the steam in the air outlet chamber 3B can more fully exchange heat with the air in the air inlet chamber 3A, so that the steam in the air outlet chamber 3B can more fully condense into condensed water, and then be discharged from the drainage pipe 34. This can reduce the amount of steam entering the outer shell 321, thereby reducing the amount of steam re-entering the cavity 11, so as to ensure the rate at which the steam in the cavity 11 is discharged from the cavity 11.
