[0057] The present utility model provides a dishwasher.

[0058] In the embodiments of the utility model, with reference to Figures 1 to 17 , the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a door assembly 300, and a partition assembly 200. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110 and an opening 120 communicating with the inner cavity 110. The door assembly 300 is movably disposed on the body 100, and the door assembly 300 is used to movably open or close the opening 120. The partition assembly 200 is installed in the inner cavity 110, and the partition assembly 200 and the door assembly 300 cooperate with the body 100 to divide the inner cavity 110 into a plurality of independent sub-chambers.

[0059] The body 100 is the main structure of the dishwasher 10, providing support and protection for other components of the dishwasher 10. An inner cavity 110 is formed within the body 100. The inner cavity 110 is the space inside the dishwasher 10 for loading and washing tableware. Its size and shape determine the quantity and types of tableware that the dishwasher 10 can accommodate. An opening 120 communicating with the inner cavity 110 is provided on one side of the body 100. The opening 120 is provided to facilitate the user to put the tableware and kitchen utensils to be cleaned into the inner cavity 110 for cleaning.

[0060] The door assembly 300 is movably installed on the body 100 and movably covers the opening 120 to control the opening or closing of the opening 120. Among them, the door assembly 300 can be connected to the body 100 in forms such as rotation, sliding, or detachable, and can be set according to specific actual requirements, without special limitation here.

[0061] The partition assembly 200 is a key feature in the dishwasher 10. By fixedly or movably arranging the partition assembly 200 in the inner cavity 110 and cooperating with the door assembly 300, the inner cavity 110 can be divided into multiple relatively airtight sub-chambers. It should be noted that for each sub-chamber formed by partitioning, a spraying system 500 and a water circuit system 400 that can perform independent washing are provided inside. The user can select different sub-chambers to complete the washing according to their own needs.

[0062] In this application, by arranging the partition assembly 200 in the inner cavity 110 of the body 100, the inner cavity 110 is completely divided into multiple relatively independent and sealed washing sub-chambers through the cooperation of the partition assembly 200, the door panel assembly, and the body 100. The user can select to use only one of the sub-chambers or use multiple sub-chambers simultaneously for washing according to the quantity of tableware, meeting the different washing needs of the user. At the same time, since the sub-chambers are relatively sealed from each other, the mutual influence between the sub-chambers can be reduced.

[0063] Refer to Figures 1 to 11 , according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the door assembly 300 includes multiple door panels. The partition assembly 200 cooperates with the body 100 to divide the opening 120 into multiple sub-openings, and the multiple sub-openings respectively communicate with different sub-chambers. The multiple door panels correspondingly control the opening or closing of the multiple sub-openings.

[0064] It can be understood that the partition component 200 extends from the position of the opening 120 towards the cavity wall opposite to the opening 120 in the inner cavity 110, thereby dividing the inner cavity 110 into multiple sub-chambers. The opening 120 will also be correspondingly divided by the partition component 200 into multiple sub-openings 120 communicating with the sub-chambers. In order to facilitate the independent opening or closing of each sub-chamber, the door body component 300 in this embodiment includes multiple door panels corresponding to the sub-openings 120. These door panels are respectively used to independently control the opening or closing of each corresponding sub-opening 120 to ensure the independence and tightness of each sub-chamber. When the user uses only one of the multiple sub-chambers, the user only needs to open the corresponding door panel to complete the target washing, improving the user's convenience of use.

[0065] Referring to Figures 12 to 17 , in one embodiment, the door body component 300 may also include a single door panel, and the single door panel corresponds to controlling the opening or closing of multiple sub-chambers, which can be set according to the user's needs.

[0066] Referring to Figures 4 to 10 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the partition component 200 includes a horizontal partition, and the horizontal partition is arranged along the horizontal direction of the inner cavity 110 to divide the inner cavity 110 into an upper sub-chamber 111 and a lower sub-chamber 112. That is, multiple sub-chambers are arranged in the height direction, which can facilitate the user to select the upper sub-chamber 111 when using the dishwasher 10 frequently, reducing the number of times the user bends down and improving user satisfaction.

[0067] In one embodiment, the partition component 200 may also include a vertical partition, and the vertical partition divides the inner cavity 110 into a left sub-chamber 113 and a right sub-chamber 114. Of course, the partition component 200 may also include both a horizontal partition and a vertical partition, or multiple horizontal partitions or vertical partitions at the same time, to divide the inner cavity 110 into multiple sub-chambers arranged horizontally or vertically as required, and no special limitation is made here.

[0068] Referring to Figures 1 to 10 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the door body component 300 includes an upper door panel 310 and a lower door panel 320. The upper door panel 310 is arranged corresponding to the upper sub-chamber 111, and the upper door panel is suitable for independently controlling the opening and closing of the upper sub-chamber 111; the lower door panel 320 is arranged corresponding to the lower sub-chamber 112, and the lower door panel is suitable for independently controlling the opening and closing of the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0069] It can be understood that the upper door panel 310 can independently control the opening and closing of the upper sub-chamber 111. When it is necessary to use the upper sub-chamber 111 alone for washing, only the upper door panel 310 can be opened, while the lower sub-chamber 112 remains closed, so as to maintain the environmental stability or safety of the lower sub-chamber 112. Similarly, when it is necessary to use the lower sub-chamber 112 alone for washing, only the lower door panel 320 can be opened, while the upper sub-chamber 111 remains closed, so as to maintain the environmental stability or safety of the upper sub-chamber 111.

[0070] Referring to Figure 11 , in one embodiment, the inner cavity 110 is divided into a left sub-chamber 113 and a right sub-chamber 114, and the door body assembly 300 includes a left door panel 340 and a right door panel 350. Among them, the left door panel 340 and the right door panel 350 can be arranged in the form of parallel doors or middle-opening doors, which are not specifically limited here and can be set according to specific requirements.

[0071] Referring to Figures 3 to 5 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the door body assembly 300 further includes an opening and closing frame 330. The opening and closing frame 330 is movably installed at the opening 120. The upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 are connected to the opening and closing frame 330 to correspondingly control the opening and closing of the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. The opening and closing frame 330 is suitable for controlling the opening and closing of the opening 120.

[0072] It can be understood that the opening and closing frame 330 is movably installed at the opening 120 of the machine body 100, so that the opening and closing frame 330 can rotate or move relative to the machine body 100, thereby controlling the opening and closing state of the opening 120. The opening and closing frame 330 becomes a key component connecting the door panel and the machine body 100. The upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 are both connected to the opening and closing frame 330. So that the door panel moves with the movement of the opening and closing frame 330, thereby realizing the control of the opening and closing states of the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. The opening and closing frame 330 not only provides a support and connection platform for the door panel, but also directly participates in the opening and closing control of the opening 120. By controlling the movement of the opening and closing frame 330, the opening and closing of the entire opening 120 can be realized, and at the same time, the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 are driven to perform corresponding actions.

[0073] When it is necessary to open the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 simultaneously, the opening and closing frame 330 can be operated to move to one side, thereby opening the opening 120. At this time, the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 rotate or move together with the opening and closing frame 330 to expose the corresponding sub-chambers. When it is necessary to close all the sub-chambers, the opening and closing frame 330 can be pushed back to its original position to close the opening 120. During this process, the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 will also close as the opening and closing frame 330 moves, re-sealing the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. Moreover, the upper door panel and the lower door panel can still independently control the opening and closing of their corresponding upper and lower sealed chambers. In this way, the operation steps for opening the entire door body assembly 300 can be reduced, and the operation efficiency can be improved.

[0074] Referring to Figures 3 to 5 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the door body assembly 300 further includes an opening and closing frame 330, which is movably installed at the opening 120. The upper door panel 310 is movably installed on the opening and closing frame 330, and the lower door panel 320 is fixedly connected to the opening and closing frame 330.

[0075] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the opening and closing frame 330 is designed to be movable relative to the body 100, such as being realized by means of slide rails, hinges, etc., so as to allow it to move within a certain range to control the opening and closing of the opening 120.

[0076] The opening and closing frame 330 not only provides an installation basis for the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320, but also ensures the relative positional relationship between them. Connects the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 together and allows the upper door panel 310 to move thereon.

[0077] The upper door panel 310 can be movably installed relative to the opening and closing frame 330, and it can be independently opened or closed to control the opening and closing state of the upper sub-chamber 111. The upper door panel 310 can be realized by means of slide rails, hinges or other mechanical devices. Since the upper door panel 310 is movably installed, when the user frequently uses the upper sealed chamber, it can be independently opened or closed without affecting the state of the lower door panel 320 or the entire opening and closing frame 330. Greater flexibility and control accuracy are provided.

[0078] Different from the upper door panel 310, the lower door panel 320 is fixedly connected to the opening and closing frame 330. The lower door panel 320 will move as the opening and closing frame 330 moves and cannot be independently opened or closed. When the opening and closing frame 330 is opened or closed, the lower door panel 320 will also be opened or closed accordingly to control the opening and closing state of the lower sub-chamber 112. The opening and closing efficiency of the entire door body assembly 300 is improved.

[0079] Referring to Figures 20 to 22, According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the dishwasher 10 includes at least one set of waterway system 400 and multiple spray systems 500. The multiple spray systems 500 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with multiple sub-chambers, and the waterway system 400 is communicated with the spray systems 500.

[0080] It can be understood that the waterway system 400 is one of the core parts of the dishwasher 10, which is suitable for providing the water flow, pressure required for cleaning, and the discharge of waste water, etc. This system may include components such as water pumps, water tanks, filters, heaters, etc., to ensure that the cleanliness, temperature, and flow rate of the water meet the cleaning requirements.

[0081] The waterway system 400 is communicated with the spray systems 500. The waterway system 400 can convey clean water to each spray system 500 through connectors such as pipes or hoses, ensuring that the water can be accurately distributed to the sub-chambers that need to be cleaned.

[0082] The dishwasher 10 is equipped with multiple spray systems 500, and the spray systems 500 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with multiple sub-chambers. Each spray system 500 is designed for a specific sub-chamber to ensure that it can comprehensively cover and effectively clean the tableware in this area. The spray system 500 sprays out cleaning agents and water mist through high-pressure water flow to wash and clean the tableware. The spray system 500 may include different types of nozzles such as rotating spray arms and fixed nozzles to provide diverse cleaning modes.

[0083] The multiple spray systems 500 are in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple sub-chambers, and each spray system 500 can be independently controlled to meet more refined cleaning requirements.

[0084] The sub-chambers are areas inside the dishwasher 10 for placing tableware. They are designed to be independent of each other and have good sealing to prevent water splashing or cross-contamination during the cleaning process.

[0085] During the cleaning process of the dishwasher 10, the waterway system 400 first provides clean water and cleaning agents to the spray systems 500; then, the spray systems 500 wash the tableware in the corresponding sub-chambers through high-pressure water flow; finally, the washed water is discharged from the dishwasher 10 through the drainage mechanism 410.

[0086] Since each sub-chamber has an independent spray system 500 for cleaning, customized cleaning solutions can be formulated for different types of tableware or different cleaning requirements. At the same time, the independence of the sub-chambers also avoids the problem of cross-contamination during the cleaning process.

[0087] Refer to Figures 20 to 22, According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the waterway system 400 includes a drainage mechanism 410, and the drainage mechanism 410 includes an upper drainage assembly and a lower drainage assembly. The upper drainage assembly is integrated on the partition assembly 200, and the lower drainage assembly is integrated at the bottom of the inner cavity 110.

[0088] It can be understood that the upper drainage assembly is suitable for discharging the wastewater accumulated in the upper sub-chamber after the cleaning process ends. The upper drainage assembly is integrated on the partition assembly 200, and the partition assembly 200 is located at the bottom of the upper sub-chamber 111. Therefore, the position of the upper drainage assembly enables it to directly handle the wastewater from the upper sub-chamber. At the same time, integrating the upper drainage assembly on the partition assembly 200 can reduce the volume occupied by the upper drainage assembly when it is set separately, improve the space utilization rate of the inner cavity 110, facilitate reducing the flow path of the wastewater inside the dishwasher 10, reduce the risk of cross-contamination, and improve the drainage efficiency.

[0089] The lower drainage assembly is integrated at the bottom of the inner cavity 110 of the dishwasher 10. The lower drainage assembly is responsible for collecting and discharging the wastewater from the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0090] In this way, the drainage efficiency and effect of the dishwasher 10 are improved through the design of regional drainage. By separately treating the wastewater from the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, the residence time of the wastewater inside the dishwasher 10 can be reduced, the risk of cross-contamination can be lowered, and the speed of the entire drainage process can be accelerated.

[0091] Refer to Figures 20 to 22 , According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the partition assembly 200 is inclined upward from the side of the inner cavity 110 opposite to the opening 120 towards the opening 120, and an upper drainage port 210 is provided on the side of the partition assembly 200 away from the opening 120.

[0092] It can be understood that the inclination of the partition assembly 200 makes the upper end surface of the partition assembly 200 not completely perpendicular to the horizontal plane, but has a certain slope, causing the partition assembly 200 to gradually rise in the direction towards the opening 120, forming an inclined plane. This helps to guide the wastewater to flow along the inclined plane towards the upper drainage port 210, thus making it easier to discharge the dishwasher 10. Secondly, the inclined partition assembly 200 can reduce the accumulation of wastewater in the upper sub-chamber 111 and lower the risk of cross-contamination. In addition, the inclined design may also help to reduce the cleaning dead corners inside the dishwasher 10 and make the cleaning work easier.

[0093] The upper drainage port 210 is provided on the side of the partition assembly 200 away from the opening 120, that is, at a lower position of the partition assembly 200, so that the wastewater can naturally gather at the upper drainage port 210 when flowing along the inclined plane of the partition assembly 200.

[0094] The main function of the upper drain port 210 is to drain the wastewater accumulated above the partition component 200 out of the dishwasher 10. Due to the inclined design of the partition component 200, the wastewater can smoothly flow towards and pass through the upper drain port 210, thus improving the drainage efficiency.

[0095] Referring Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the partition component 200 includes a first partition part 220 and a second partition part 230, and one side where the first partition part 220 and the second partition part 230 are adjacent is inclined downward. It can be understood that in this embodiment, a V-shaped structure is formed by inclining one side where the first partition part 220 and the second partition part 230 are adjacent downward. When the wastewater flows through the upper end surface of the partition component 200, a confluence area will be formed at its low-lying position. At the same time, since the whole partition component 200 is inclined towards the side of the upper drain port 210, therefore, under the guidance of the secondary inclination of the upper end surface of the partition component 200, the wastewater can be discharged from the upper sub-chamber 111 faster, improving the wastewater discharge efficiency.

[0096] In other embodiments, the cross-section of the partition component 200 parallel to the opening 120 can be arranged in a W shape or an arc shape to form a water confluence area on the upper end surface of the partition component 200.

[0097] Referring Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, a water collecting tank 240 is formed between the first partition and the second partition. The water collecting tank 240 extends along the depth direction of the opening 120. The water collecting tank 240 is communicated with the upper drain port 210, and a filter element 250 is covered at the notch of the water collecting tank 240.

[0098] It can be understood that the water collecting tank 240 is located between the first partition and the second partition, and its shape and size are determined according to the specific design of the dishwasher 10. Generally, the water collecting tank 240 will extend along the depth direction of the opening 120 so as to be able to collect the wastewater and residues from the upper area.

[0099] The water collecting tank 240 is suitable for collecting and temporarily storing wastewater to keep the inside of the dishwasher 10 clean and hygienic. The water collecting tank 240 is communicated with the upper drain port 210, so that the wastewater collected in the water collecting tank 240 can be smoothly discharged from the dishwasher 10 through the upper drain port 210. It ensures that the wastewater can be discharged in a timely and effective manner, avoiding the accumulation and retention of wastewater inside the dishwasher 10. Due to the existence of the water collecting tank 240, the wastewater will be first collected and temporarily stored in the water collecting tank 240 during the discharge process, and then discharged through the upper drain port 210. It helps to reduce the splashing and overflow of wastewater during the discharge process and improves the drainage efficiency.

[0100] The filter member 250 is provided at the notch of the water collecting tank 240. It is located between the water collecting tank 240 and the upper area and is used to block large food residues, grease and other impurities from entering the water collecting tank 240. Through the filtering function of the filter member 250, it can ensure that only the waste water enters the water collecting tank 240 and the upper drain port 210, thus protecting the smooth operation of the drainage system.

[0101] Referring to Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the filter member 250 is provided with a handle at one end of the opening 120. It can be understood that the handle is located at the edge or near the edge of the filter member 250 at one end of the opening 120, so that the user can easily reach and operate it. The handle is usually designed in a shape that is easy to grip, such as a groove, a protrusion or a handle, etc. When the filter member 250 accumulates too many impurities and affects the drainage effect, the user can easily take out the filter member 250 through the handle and clean it. After cleaning, the filter member 250 can be put back in place through the handle.

[0102] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a slag discharging system. A slag discharging port is provided at the bottom of the sub-chamber, and the slag discharging system is communicated with the sub-chamber through the slag discharging port.

[0103] It can be understood that the slag discharging system is suitable for automatically or manually discharging the food residues accumulated at the bottom of the sub-chamber outside the dishwasher 10 after the dishwasher 10 completes the cleaning process. It can avoid the accumulation of residues inside the dishwasher 10, resulting in the growth of bacteria, the generation of odors and the influence on the subsequent cleaning effect.

[0104] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the water circuit system 400 further includes a water inlet mechanism 420. The water inlet mechanism 420 includes an upper water inlet assembly and a lower water inlet assembly. The upper water inlet assembly and the lower water inlet assembly are respectively communicated with the spray system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111 or the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0105] It can be understood that the upper water inlet assembly is connected to the spray system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111 of the dishwasher 10. When it is necessary to clean the tableware in the upper part, the upper water inlet assembly will supply cleaning water to the spray system 500. The main function of the upper water inlet assembly is to provide stable and appropriate cleaning water for the spray system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111. These cleaning waters are sprayed onto the tableware through the spray system 500 to remove stains and food residues. The lower water inlet assembly is connected to the spray system 500 in the lower sub-chamber 112 of the dishwasher 10. Similar to the upper water inlet assembly, the lower water inlet assembly is responsible for providing cleaning water for the tableware in the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0106] During the cleaning process of the dishwasher 10, the upper water inlet assembly and the lower water inlet assembly work together. According to the control program of the dishwasher 10 and the user's settings, they respectively supply an appropriate amount of cleaning water to the spraying system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 to ensure that the tableware inside the entire dishwasher 10 can be fully cleaned.

[0107] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the dishwasher 10 further includes at least one drying system. The drying system includes a drying module and an air duct. Upper drying ports and lower drying ports communicating with the air duct are provided on the inner walls of the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. The drying module dries the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through the upper drying ports and the lower drying ports.

[0108] It can be understood that the drying system is an additional function in the dishwasher 10, aiming to dry tableware and other items after washing to remove residual moisture and prevent bacteria from breeding.

[0109] In the embodiment of the present invention, the drying system includes a drying module and an air duct. The drying module is the main part that generates hot air or hot air, and the air duct is used to transport the hot air or hot air to all corners in the washing chamber 110.

[0110] Specifically, upper drying ports and lower drying ports communicating with the air duct are respectively provided on the inner walls of the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. The function of these two drying ports is to evenly introduce the hot air or hot air generated by the drying module into the two sub-chambers to dry tableware and other items.

[0111] When the dishwasher 10 completes the washing process, the drying module starts to work and generates hot air or hot air. These hot air or hot air pass through the air duct and enter the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through the upper drying ports and the lower drying ports respectively to dry the tableware and other items in the chambers.

[0112] By setting the drying system, the tableware and other items can be automatically dried after washing, avoiding the tediousness of manual wiping and the possibility of secondary pollution. The design of the air duct and the drying ports ensures that the hot air or hot air can be evenly transported to all corners in the washing chamber, improving the drying efficiency and quality.

[0113] In some embodiments, the drying module can be set in the form of one for multiple sub-chambers or one for one sub-chamber, that is, one drying module corresponds to and communicates with multiple sub-chambers, or one drying module corresponds to one sub-chamber. There is no special limitation here.

[0114] Refer to Figures 18 to 19, in one embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a partition component 200 and a drive component. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110; the partition component 200 is disposed in the inner cavity 110 to divide the inner cavity 110 into at least two independent sub-chambers; the drive component is connected to the partition component 200, and the drive component is adapted to drive the partition component 200 to move along a first direction of the inner cavity 110 to dynamically adjust the volume ratio of two adjacent sub-chambers.

[0115] In this embodiment, the drive component is closely connected to the partition component 200, and its function is to drive the partition component 200 to move along the first direction of the inner cavity 110. This first direction is usually preset and can be adjusted according to the specific design of the dishwasher 10. Through the precise control of the drive component, the user can easily adjust the volume ratio of two adjacent sub-chambers according to the amount or size of the tableware to meet different cleaning requirements. By dynamically adjusting the volume ratio of two adjacent sub-chambers, the dishwasher 10 can more flexibly handle different numbers and types of tableware, which helps to optimize the water flow distribution and spraying angle during the cleaning process, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and quality. When the number of tableware is small, the user can reduce the volume of the corresponding sub-chamber to reduce the water and energy consumption during the cleaning process. This energy-saving design meets the modern family's pursuit of environmental protection and energy conservation. The function of dynamically adjusting the volume ratio makes the dishwasher 10 more intelligent and user-friendly. The user can freely adjust the size and number of sub-chambers according to their actual needs and enjoy a more convenient and efficient cleaning experience.

[0116] Among them, the drive component may adopt various forms such as a motor, a gear transmission mechanism, a lead screw transmission mechanism, etc. These components work together under the command of the control system to ensure that the partition component 200 can move smoothly and precisely.

[0117] It can be understood that the first direction can be the horizontal direction or the vertical direction of the inner cavity 110, and no special limitation is made here. This embodiment mainly takes the first direction as the vertical direction as an example for elaboration, and other embodiments can be implemented with reference to this embodiment.

[0118] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a sealing component, and the sealing component is disposed between the partition component 200 and the wall of the inner cavity 110.

[0119] It can be understood that the sealing component is disposed between the partition component 200 and the wall of the inner cavity 110, and is adapted to fill the tiny gap between the two to prevent water, steam, detergent or other cleaning media from leaking into adjacent sub-chambers or outside the dishwasher 10 during the cleaning process. To ensure the independent cleaning environment inside each sub-chamber and protect the internal components of the dishwasher 10 from damage.

[0120] Optionally, the sealing component may be in the form of a sealing strip, a sealing ring, a gasket, etc., and the specific form may be selected according to the design of the specific dishwasher 10 and the shape of the partition component 200, and no special limitation is made here.

[0121] In some embodiments, the cavity wall of the inner cavity 110 and the outer peripheral wall of the partition component 200 are arranged flush with each other.

[0122] It can be understood that arranging the cavity wall of the inner cavity 110 and the outer peripheral wall of the partition component 200 flush with each other can be more conducive to the driving component driving the partition component 200 to move along the first direction of the inner cavity 110, while enabling the sealing component to better fit between the two to maintain the sealing performance of adjacent sub-chambers.

[0123] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes at least one of a water circuit system 400, a heating system, a drying system, and a disinfection system, and multiple sub-chambers share at least one of the water circuit system 400, the heating system, the drying system, and the disinfection system.

[0124] Among them, the water circuit system 400 is used to introduce water into the machine, distribute it to each spray system, and perform effective cleaning and drainage. Optionally, the water circuit system 400 may include components such as a water pump, a washing pump, a water cup tank, a filter, a ventilator, etc., to ensure that the cleanliness, temperature, and flow rate of the water meet the cleaning requirements.

[0125] The heating system is used to heat the washing water to enhance the cleaning effect and dry the tableware with the remaining heat after the washing is completed. Optionally, the heating system may include components such as a heater, a heating pump, and a thermostat. The heating pump is usually installed in the water tank at the bottom of the water path of the dishwasher 10 to accurately measure the water temperature and heat the washing water according to the demand.

[0126] The drying system is used to evaporate or blow dry the moisture on the tableware after the washing is completed, avoid water stains remaining, and improve the drying effect of the tableware. The drying system can be in the way of hot air drying. The hot air drying system includes a heater, a fan, and a duct, etc. The heater can heat the internal air to promote moisture evaporation; the fan can accelerate the drying process by blowing hot air, circulate the hot air inside the dishwasher 10, and ensure uniform drying to dry the tableware. In some cases, the drying system can adopt the way of adsorption drying. The adsorption drying system can include a fan, an adsorption module, and a duct, etc. The fan guides the air inside the dishwasher 10 to the adsorption module to absorb moisture and dry the tableware.

[0127] The disinfection system is used to achieve an effective disinfection effect through high temperature or other disinfection technologies. The disinfection system can disinfect each sub-chamber in one or a combination of two or more modes such as high temperature disinfection, ultraviolet disinfection, plasma disinfection, or ozone disinfection.

[0128] It should be noted that the sharing of systems between each sub-chamber means that there is an intersection in function and hardware when each sub-chamber uses these systems, and at least some components in the system can provide work for each sub-chamber and can work together to improve the dishwashing effect and efficiency.

[0129] For example, taking the waterway system 400 as an example, in the waterway system 400, through the design of the waterway pipeline, the waterways between each sub-chamber can be connected, and the same washing pump can be used to supply water. The washing water in the same water tank can flow into each sub-chamber through different pipelines;

[0130] Another example is the hot air drying system in the drying system. In the drying system, through the design of the air duct, the air ducts between each sub-chamber can be connected, and the same wave of hot air can be blown into each sub-chamber respectively. The air can be heated by the same set of heaters, and the heaters are respectively connected to each sub-chamber through different air ducts.

[0131] Another example is in the disinfection system. Each sub-chamber can be disinfected by the same set of disinfection modules.

[0132] Another example is the detergent dispensing system. Each sub-chamber can dispense detergent through the same set of detergent dispensers. The detergent dispensers are respectively connected to each sub-chamber through different pipelines, or the detergent dispensed by the detergent dispensers is respectively connected to the water supply pipelines of each sub-chamber through different pipelines. Optionally, it can be that two sub-chambers correspond to one set of systems or three sub-chambers correspond to one set of systems, etc. There is no special limitation here and it can be set according to needs.

[0133] In an embodiment, at least two sub-chambers include an upper sub-chamber 111 and a lower sub-chamber 112. The dishwasher 10 includes an upper spray system and a lower spray system. The upper spray system is correspondingly arranged in the upper sub-chamber 111, and the lower spray system is correspondingly arranged in the lower sub-chamber 112. The upper spray system and the lower spray system are respectively connected to the waterway system 400.

[0134] It can be understood that the upper sub-chamber 111 is located in the upper part of the inner cavity 110 of the dishwasher 10, and the upper spray system is correspondingly arranged in the upper sub-chamber 111, spraying water flow and detergent onto the tableware in this area through multiple spray arms or nozzles. The lower sub-chamber 112 is located in the lower part of the inner cavity 110 of the dishwasher 10, and the lower spray system is correspondingly arranged in the lower sub-chamber 112, performing a cleaning task similar to that of the upper spray system. In this way, by separately corresponding to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 to set the upper spray system and the lower spray system, both the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 can be used separately, and the user can choose to use either one alone for washing according to needs, or wash simultaneously, improving the applicability and user satisfaction of the dishwasher 10.

[0135] In some embodiments, the upper spray system is arranged on the partition assembly 200 and can move along with the partition assembly 200.

[0136] Furthermore, the upper spray system can be arranged in the basket of the upper sub-chamber 111.

[0137] It can be understood that the upper spray system is directly installed on the partition assembly 200, so that when the partition assembly 200 moves in the inner cavity 110 to adjust the volume ratio of the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, the upper spray system will also move accordingly. It ensures that the spray system 500 can effectively clean the tableware in the upper sub-chamber 111.

[0138] Since the upper spray system can move along with the partition assembly 200, it can dynamically adjust the cleaning area according to the position of the partition assembly 200. Thus, no matter how the partition assembly 200 moves, the upper spray system can ensure a comprehensive and uniform cleaning of the tableware in the upper sub-chamber 111.

[0139] Since the upper spray system is closely combined with the partition assembly 200, it can more precisely control the spray direction and spray intensity, thus ensuring that the water flow and detergent can directly act on the surface of the tableware, improving the cleaning effect.

[0140] Of course, in other embodiments, the upper spray system can also be fixedly arranged at the top of the upper sub-chamber 111, or spray systems 500 are arranged at both the top and the bottom of the upper sub-chamber 111, which is not specially limited herein.

[0141] In some embodiments, the water circuit system 400 includes a water inlet mechanism 420 and a drainage mechanism 410, and the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410 are respectively communicated with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0142] It can be understood that the water inlet mechanism 420 is suitable for providing the water flow and cleaning agent required for cleaning to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. The water inlet mechanism 420 is respectively communicated with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through specific pipelines or connectors. During the cleaning process, the water inlet mechanism 420 will supply an appropriate amount of water flow and cleaning agent to the corresponding sub-chamber according to the preset cleaning program.

[0143] The drainage mechanism 410 is suitable for draining the wastewater in the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 out of the dishwasher 10 after the cleaning is completed. It generally includes components such as a drainage pump, a drainage pipeline, and a drainage valve, and can quickly and effectively drain the wastewater outside the dishwasher 10. The drainage mechanism 410 is also respectively communicated with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through specific pipelines or connectors. During the drainage process, the drainage mechanism 410 will open the corresponding drainage valve, start the drainage pump, and pump the wastewater out of the sub-chamber and drain it out of the dishwasher 10.

[0144] By respectively communicating the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410 with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, the dishwasher 10 can achieve independent cleaning of the two sub-chambers. This enhances the flexibility and practicality of the dishwasher 10.

[0145] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a heating system, and the heating system is connected to the water circuit system 400. The heating system is suitable for heating the washing water in the water circuit system 400.

[0146] It can be understood that the heating system is usually integrated in the water circuit system 400 and is connected to the water inlet mechanism 420 and the washing chamber through pipelines and valves. During the cleaning process, when it is necessary to heat the washing water, the heating system will start and heat the cold water in the water flow, and then transport the heated washing water to the washing chamber for cleaning. As the temperature of the washing water increases, the activity of the cleaning agent will also increase, making it easier to penetrate into the stains and decompose them. Therefore, the heating system can significantly improve the stain removal ability of the dishwasher 10 and make the tableware cleaner. The high-temperature washing water not only helps to remove stains but also can sterilize and disinfect the tableware. This is of great significance for maintaining the hygiene of the tableware and preventing the growth of bacteria. At a higher temperature, the stains and grease are more easily washed away by the water flow, thus reducing the cleaning time and energy consumption.

[0147] In one embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes at least two working modes. In the first mode, the upper sub-chamber 111 is washed alone; in the second mode, the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 are washed separately.

[0148] It can be understood that in the first mode, when the user performs a small amount of washing, only the upper sub-chamber 111 needs to be opened for washing, which can reduce the energy consumption such as water volume, detergent, and electricity, and at the same time, can reduce the number of times the user bends down during frequent washing, improving the comfort of user use.

[0149] In the second mode, the user performs separate-chamber washing according to different tableware or different degrees of oil stains, and customizes different washing durations or conditions; and since the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 are relatively sealed, the washing process is completely independent and there will be no cross-contamination.

[0150] In an embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a door assembly 300, a partition assembly 200, and a water circuit system 400. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110 and an opening 120 communicating with the inner cavity 110; the door assembly 300 is movably arranged on the body 100, and the door assembly 300 is used to movably open or close the opening 120; the partition assembly 200 is installed in the inner cavity 110, and the partition assembly 200 is adapted to divide the inner cavity 110 into independent upper and lower sub-chambers 111 and 112. An upper spray system is arranged in the upper sub-chamber 111, and a lower spray system is arranged in the lower sub-chamber 112; the water circuit system 400 is respectively communicated with the upper spray system and the lower spray system; wherein, the water circuit system 400 has a first working mode of separately supplying water to the upper spray system or the lower spray system and a second working mode of simultaneously supplying water to the upper spray arm and the lower spray arm.

[0151] In this embodiment, the inner cavity 110 of the body 100 is divided into two independent sub-chambers by the partition assembly, and each sub-chamber is equipped with an independent spray system 500. The water circuit system 400 is separately communicated with each spray system 500. In this way, the separate use of each sub-chamber can be realized. The user can select the dishwasher 10 to operate in the first working mode or the second working mode according to the needs. In the first working mode, the user can choose to supply water to only one of the upper spray system or the lower spray system to clean the tableware in the corresponding sub-chamber. In the second working mode, the water circuit system 400 will simultaneously supply water to the upper spray system and the lower spray system, allowing the tableware in the upper and lower chambers to be cleaned simultaneously. It is suitable for scenarios where a large number of tableware need to be cleaned at the same time, and can significantly improve the cleaning efficiency. The user can select a suitable cleaning method according to the actual needs, improving the flexibility and convenience of using the dishwasher 10.

[0152] In some embodiments, the water circuit system 400 includes a washing pump and a water distribution valve, and the washing pump is communicated with the upper spray system and the lower spray system through the water distribution valve.

[0153] It can be understood that the washing pump provides a power source for the entire water circuit system 400 and is responsible for pressurizing and sending out the stored washing water. The water distribution valve is a key control component. It is located between the washing pump and the spraying system 500 and is responsible for precisely distributing the washing water to the upper spraying system and the lower spraying system. The water distribution valve usually contains multiple channels and valve structures inside. By controlling the opening and closing states of the valves, precise control of the water flow direction and flow rate can be achieved. When the user selects different cleaning modes, the control system of the dishwasher 10 will correspondingly adjust the state of the water distribution valve to meet the water supply requirements of different spraying systems 500.

[0154] The upper spraying system and the lower spraying system are respectively responsible for cleaning the tableware in the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. They spray high-pressure water flow and detergent onto the surface of the tableware through the spray arms, and use the impact force of the water flow and the chemical action of the detergent to remove stains and grease. Since the upper spraying system and the lower spraying system respectively correspond to different chambers, they can work independently or simultaneously to meet different cleaning requirements. Through the coordinated work of the washing pump and the water distribution valve, the water circuit system 400 can achieve independent or simultaneous water supply to the upper spraying system and the lower spraying system, thereby meeting different cleaning requirements.

[0155] In an embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a partitioning assembly 200, a water circuit system 400, and a dispenser. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110; the partitioning assembly 200 is installed in the inner cavity 110 to partition the inner cavity 110 into relatively independent upper and lower sub-chambers 111 and 112; a drainage mechanism 410 is adapted to supply and drain water to and from the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112; the dispenser is connected to the water circuit system 400, and the water circuit system 400 is communicated with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through the dispenser to independently control the water supply and drainage of the water circuit system 400 to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0156] In this embodiment, the inner cavity 110 of the body 100 is partitioned into two independent sub-chambers by the partition assembly. The water circuit system 400 is separately communicated with each sub-chamber through the dispenser to realize the independence of the water inlet and drainage of each sub-chamber. The user can flexibly choose to only clean the upper sub-chamber 111, the lower sub-chamber 112, or clean both chambers simultaneously according to the type of tableware, the degree of oil stain, and the cleaning requirements. In this way, not only the cleaning efficiency is improved, but also the personalized needs of the user for tableware cleaning are met. At the same time, since the cleaning processes of the two sub-chambers are independent of each other, the risk of cross-contamination is also reduced, ensuring the hygienic safety of the tableware.

[0157] In some embodiments, the waterway system 400 includes a water inlet mechanism 420 and a drainage mechanism 410. The water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410 are respectively communicated with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, and the dispenser is respectively communicated with the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410.

[0158] It can be understood that the water inlet mechanism 420 is suitable for providing the water source required for cleaning for the dishwasher 10. It generally includes components such as a water pump, a filter, a heater, etc., as well as a series of connecting pipelines for delivering clean water to various parts of the dishwasher 10. In this embodiment, the water inlet mechanism 420 is not only directly communicated with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, but also precisely distributes the water flow through the dispenser. So that the water inlet mechanism 420 can provide an appropriate amount of clean water to the upper and lower sub-chambers simultaneously or respectively as needed.

[0159] The drainage mechanism 410 is suitable for discharging the sewage generated during the cleaning process from the dishwasher 10. It generally includes a drainage pump, a drainage pipeline, a backflow prevention device, etc. In this embodiment, the drainage mechanism 410 is also in communication with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 to ensure that the sewage in the two chambers can be quickly and effectively discharged after the cleaning is completed. Since the dispenser is communicated with the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410 at the same time, the dispenser can assist the drainage mechanism 410 to achieve more precise drainage control, such as indirectly affecting the drainage speed and efficiency by adjusting the water inlet flow rate.

[0160] The dispenser can precisely adjust the water flow rate and water pressure entering the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 according to the preset cleaning program or the user's instructions, and can also assist in adjusting the drainage speed and direction during the drainage stage to achieve a more efficient and energy-saving cleaning process.

[0161] In some embodiments, the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410 communicating with the upper sub-chamber 111 are attached to the wall of the inner cavity 110.

[0162] It can be understood that attaching the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410 to the wall of the inner cavity 110 can maximize the space saving inside the dishwasher 10. The space inside the dishwasher 10 is limited, and the placement of tableware, the swing of the spray arm, and the dispensing of detergent all require a certain amount of space. Therefore, attaching the components of the waterway system 400 (such as the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410) to the wall can leave more space for the cleaning of tableware and the movement of the spray arm, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and effect.

[0163] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes at least one set of disinfection system for disinfecting the tableware in the upper sub-chamber 111 or the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0164] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, a set of disinfection systems can be provided to correspond to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 for disinfection, so that the internal space of the body 100 occupied by setting multiple sets of disinfection systems can be reduced. Of course, in other embodiments, a set of disinfection systems can also be separately provided corresponding to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 respectively.

[0165] Optionally, the disinfection system can disinfect the sub-chamber in one or a combination of more than two of high-temperature disinfection, ultraviolet disinfection, ozone disinfection, etc.

[0166] In some embodiments, the water circuit system 400 further includes a water circulation system, and the water circulation system is connected between the sub-chamber and the spraying system 500.

[0167] It can be understood that the water circulation system can collect and filter the washing water sprayed by the spraying system 500 in the sub-chamber during the washing or rinsing process, and then spray it again through the spraying system 500 onto the tableware in the sub-chamber, which can effectively save water resources.

[0168] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that various combinations, modifications, or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present invention do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
