Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dishwashers, in particular to a washing machine used for washing tableware, fruits and vegetables. Background Art

[0002] As a common household appliance, dishwashers are increasingly used in our lives.

[0003] Dishwashers are generally equipped with a detergent dispenser for storing a certain amount of detergent and automatically distributing the amount of detergent. Most existing detergent dispensers are installed on the door of the dishwasher, and are generally driven by a motor to drive the impeller to rotate to distribute the detergent. In specific applications, the following shortcomings are generally present: (1) Due to the limitation of the door space, the size of the detergent dispenser can only be designed to be small, so that the volume of the detergent dispenser for storing detergent is small, so that the user needs to frequently add detergent to the detergent dispenser during the use of the dishwasher, which makes the operation of the user more cumbersome during the use of the dishwasher; (2) The motor drive structure is costly, and the noise generated during the rotation of the impeller is relatively loud, which seriously affects the user experience.

When the valve stem (521) opens the outer port of the channel (512), a flushing path is formed among the water pipe (3), the channel (512), the flow guide cavity (5111), the water guide port (5112), the distribution cavity (42), the second opening (422), and the delivery port (10).

7. The cleaning machine according to claim 6, characterized in that: The axial length of the matching portion (511) is L1, the axial length of the first section (501) is L2, the end edge of the water-conducting section (31) is aligned with the outer edge of the second opening (422), and L2 = (2-3) L1.

8. The cleaning machine according to claim 6, characterized in that: A first inclined surface (4221) is formed at the inner edge of the second opening (422) and is inclined radially outward and inward along the direction of water flow. The edge of the inner end of the matching portion (511) forms a convex ring extending outward, and the convex ring is formed with a second inclined surface (5114) that matches the first inclined surface (4221).

9. The cleaning machine according to claim 6, characterized in that: The second end of the plug (52) is formed with a conical surface that can cooperate with the first opening (421) for sealing, and the end of the second section (502) extends outward to form a limiting ring. The plug (52) is provided with a clamping ring that extends from the edge of the conical surface to the limiting ring and forms a clamping limit with the limiting ring.

10. The cleaning machine according to claim 9, characterized in that: An assembly chamber is enclosed between the clamping ring and the conical surface, and the second elastic member (54) is sleeved on the periphery of the valve stem (521) and is located in the assembly chamber.

11. The cleaning machine according to claim 5, characterized in that: The first elastic member (53) is arranged in the distribution cavity (42) and the first end thereof corresponds to the periphery of the first opening (421) and abuts against the first end surface of the distribution cavity (42), and the second end of the first elastic member (53) abuts against the matching portion (511).
