Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dishwashers, and more specifically to a drying device for a dishwasher. Background Art

[0002] The cleaning efficiency and convenience of a dishwasher are beyond doubt. Whether it is ordinary soup and oil stains, or dried meat sauce and rice grains, the dishwasher can easily clean them. During the cleaning process, the dishwasher uses high-pressure water flow to flush, high-temperature heat to dissolve, and active agents to decompose oil stains, completely cleaning the tableware.

[0003] There are many types of dishwashers, but the common dishwashers on the market still have the following problems when cleaning tableware, especially when cleaning chopsticks in tableware: because chopsticks are stuck with oil stains, vegetable residues, rice residues, etc. during use, the chopsticks will stick together after being placed in the dishwasher. Due to the large number of chopsticks, the sticky positions of the chopsticks are still difficult to clean during the cleaning process inside the dishwasher, resulting in poor cleaning effect. Due to the poor cleaning effect, the chopsticks are still stuck together during the drying process, and the moisture drying efficiency at the sticky positions is low. In view of this, we propose a dishwasher drying device. Utility Model Content

[0034] See also Figure 1-8 The utility model provides a technical solution: a dishwasher drying device, including a dishwasher body 1, which can be a conventional dishwasher. This is a prior art, so it will not be described in detail here. A heater 2 is installed on the side wall of the dishwasher body 1. In this embodiment, the heater 2 adopts a PCT heater in the art. After the dishwasher body 1 finishes washing the tableware, hot air will be generated inside the PCT heater to blow to the washed tableware, thereby accelerating the drying of the tableware. A plurality of material baskets 3 are installed on the inner side of the dishwasher body 1 for placing the tableware to be washed. A chopstick drying tube 4 is embedded in the material basket 3. The chopstick drying tube 4 is specifically used for placing chopsticks. The chopsticks are placed vertically from top to bottom in the chopstick drying tube 4.

[0035] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 3-5The chopstick drying tube 4 in this embodiment is specifically described. The chopstick drying tube 4 includes a tube wall 41 fixedly mounted on the material basket 3. The tube wall 41 is configured to be a trumpet shape with a large top and a small bottom, and the side walls of the tube wall 41 are configured to be mesh-shaped to facilitate the cleaning of the chopsticks inside. A plurality of chopsticks are placed inside the tube wall 41, and the chopsticks are placed vertically. The bottom of the tube wall 41 extends downward to the middle to form a bottom wall. A plurality of chopstick holes 42 are distributed in a circular array in the middle of the bottom wall. The inner diameter of the chopstick hole 42 is slightly larger than the end of the chopstick. The chopsticks are generally large at one end and small at the other end. 42 is slightly larger than the larger end of the chopsticks, and a sealed and rotatable conical cylinder 43 is installed in the middle of the inner cavity of the bottom wall. In this example, the conical cylinder 43 is sealed and rotatably connected to the inner side of the bottom wall of the cylinder wall 41 in the form of a sealed bearing. One side of the conical cylinder 43 is fixedly connected to a guide wall 44. The guide wall 44 extends around the outer circumference of the conical cylinder 43 to form a guide pad 45. A side wall of the guide wall 44 away from the guide pad 45 is set to a smooth inclined surface. The outer arc wall of the guide wall 44 fits with the edge of the bottom wall, and uncleaned chopsticks are placed above the guide pad 45.

[0036] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 4-6 A sealed box 5 is installed below the chopstick drying cylinder 4. The top wall of the sealed box 5 is connected to the inner side wall of the bottom wall of the cylinder wall 41. A driving assembly 6 is installed inside the sealed box 5. The driving assembly 6 in this embodiment is specifically described. The driving assembly 6 includes a driven shaft 61. The top end of the driven shaft 61 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the conical cylinder 43. The bottom end of the driven shaft 61 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the sealed box 5. A worm gear 62 is sleeved on the outside of the driven shaft 61. A worm 63 is provided on one side of the worm gear 62. The structures of the worm gear 62 and the worm 63 are adapted. One end of the worm 63 is connected to a driving shaft 64. The driving shaft 64 passes through the inner side wall of the sealed box 5 and extends outward to connect to the servo motor. The machine 10 starts the servo motor 10. The servo motor 10 drives the worm 63 to rotate through the driving shaft 64. The worm 63 drives the worm wheel 62 to rotate, and then drives the driven shaft 61 to rotate. Since the driven shaft 61 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the conical cylinder 43, the conical cylinder 43 will rotate therewith, thereby driving the guide wall 44 and the guide pad 45 to rotate inside the cylinder wall 41. When the guide pad 45 moves forward, the chopsticks above the guide pad 45 will fall down, and the ends of the chopsticks will fall into the chopstick holes 42, thereby separating the chopsticks one by one to facilitate the cleaning and drying process, and preventing the chopsticks from sticking together due to oil, rice residue, etc., resulting in poor cleaning and poor drying effect.

[0037] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 6-8, the knocking ball 8 in this embodiment is specifically described. Two groups of reset components 7 are respectively installed on both sides of the driving component 6. The driving component 6 drives the two groups of reset components 7 to move up and down alternately. The top of the reset component 7 is connected to the knocking ball 8. The side wall of the conical cylinder 43 is provided with a receiving groove 9 corresponding to the position of the knocking ball 8. The receiving groove 9 is distributed in a circular array around the conical cylinder 43 and is integrated with the conical cylinder 43. The worm 63 rotates to drive the reset component 7 to move up and down. The reset component 7 moves upward to drive the knocking ball 8 to the inside of the receiving groove 9 and knock the inner wall of the receiving groove 9. Therefore, the entire conical cylinder 43 will generate a small vibration, and the chopsticks with the corners of the end of the chopsticks stuck on the leakage hole will detach from the leakage hole, thereby detaching from the guide pad 45.

[0038] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 8 , the reset assembly 7 in this embodiment is specifically described. The reset assembly 7 includes a lifting plate 71 and a half gear 73. The half gear 73 is installed at the end of the worm 63. A spur plate 72 is correspondingly arranged at the position of the lower end of the lifting plate 71 close to the half gear 73. The spur plate 72 and the half gear 73 are adapted. The bottom end of the spur plate 72 is connected to a connecting rod 74. The connecting rod 74 passes through the sealing box 5 from top to bottom, and the bottom end is connected to a baffle 75. A reset spring 76 is installed at a position where the connecting rod 74 is located inside the sealing box 5. The top end of the reset spring 76 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the spur plate 72, and the bottom end of the reset spring 76 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the sealing box 5. The two half gears 73 in the two sets of reset assemblies 7 are respectively installed at the two ends of the worm 63, and the teeth of the two half gears 73 are arranged in opposite directions.

[0039] The worm 63 rotates one circle in two steps, the first 180° and the second 180°:

[0040] During the first 180° rotation of the worm 63, the first half gear 73 rotates and meshes with the first spur plate 72, driving the first spur plate 72 to move downward, and the first connecting rod 74 moves toward the bottom of the sealing box 5, thereby squeezing the first return spring 76. At this time, the height of the second spur plate 72 remains unchanged, and the knocking ball 8 on the lifting plate 71 is located in the receiving groove 9 and is only stored without knocking.

[0041] The worm 63 continues to rotate to the next 180°, and the first spur plate 72 is reset under the action of the reset spring 76, thereby moving upward, causing the knocking ball 8 to knock on the receiving groove 9, causing the conical cylinder 43 to vibrate. At the same time, the second half gear 73 engages with the second spur plate 72, driving the second spur plate 72 to move downward, squeezing the second reset spring 76. The process of the second set of reset components 7 is the same as that of the first set of reset components 7.

[0042] The specific working process is as follows: the user first puts the chopsticks to be cleaned vertically on the guide pad 45 inside the cylinder wall 41. Since the smaller end of the chopsticks in the leaking hole wall is even smaller, it will not get stuck. Then start the servo motor 10. The servo motor 10 drives the worm 63 to rotate through the driving shaft 64. The worm 63 engages with the worm wheel 62, thereby driving the driven shaft 61 to rotate, and further driving the conical cylinder 43 to rotate, thereby driving the guide wall 44 and the guide pad 45 to rotate. During the rotation of the guide pad 45, the chopsticks above the guide pad 45 will gradually fall onto the bottom wall of the cylinder wall 41, and since the chopstick holes 42 on the bottom wall of the cylinder wall 41 are slightly larger than the large ends of the chopsticks, and the gaps between the chopstick holes 42 and the chopstick holes 42 are smaller, the ends of the chopsticks are small. Therefore, one end of each chopstick just falls onto a certain chopstick hole 42, thereby realizing the process of separating multiple chopsticks, so as to facilitate cleaning and subsequent drying by the heat generated by the basket 3.

[0043] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model.
