[0061] The present utility model provides a dishwasher.

[0062] 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 partitioning 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 arranged on the body 100, and the door assembly 300 is used to movably open or close the opening 120. The partitioning assembly 200 is installed in the inner cavity 110, and the partitioning assembly 200 and the door assembly 300 cooperate with the body 100 to divide the inner cavity 110 into a plurality of mutually independent sub-chambers.

[0063] The body 100 is the main structure of the dishwasher 10, and the body 100 provides support and protection for other components of the dishwasher 10. An inner cavity 110 is formed in the body 100, and the inner cavity 110 is the space inside the dishwasher 10 for loading and washing tableware. Its size and shape determine the number 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, and 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.

[0064] The door body assembly 300 is movably installed on the machine body 100 and movably covers the opening 120 to control the opening or closing of the opening 120. Among them, the door body assembly 300 can be connected to the machine body 100 in the form of rotation, sliding or detachable, etc., and can be set according to specific actual needs, and no special limitation is made here.

[0065] 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 body assembly 300, the inner cavity 110 can be divided into multiple relatively airtight sub-chambers. It should be noted that for each sub-chamber corresponding to the partition, a spraying system 500 and a waterway system 400 that can perform separate washing are arranged inside. Users can select different sub-chambers to complete the washing according to their own needs.

[0066] In this application, by arranging the partition assembly 200 in the inner cavity 110 of the machine body 100, the inner cavity 110 is completely divided into multiple relatively independent and sealed washing sub-chambers through the partition assembly 200, the door panel assembly and the machine body 100. Users can select to use only one of the sub-chambers or use multiple sub-chambers simultaneously for washing according to the amount of tableware, meeting the different washing needs of users. At the same time, since the sub-chambers are relatively sealed from each other, the mutual influence between the sub-chambers can be reduced.

[0067] Refer to Figures 1 to 11 , according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the door body assembly 300 includes a plurality of door panels, and the partition assembly 200 cooperates with the machine body 100 to divide the opening 120 into a plurality of sub-openings. The plurality of sub-openings are respectively correspondingly communicated with different sub-chambers, and the plurality of door panels correspondingly control the opening or closing of the plurality of sub-openings.

[0068] It can be understood that the partition assembly 200 extends from the position of the opening 120 towards the chamber wall opposite to the position of the opening 120 in the inner cavity 110, thereby dividing the inner cavity 110 into a plurality of sub-chambers, and the opening 120 will also be correspondingly divided by the partition assembly 200 into a plurality of sub-openings 120 communicated with the sub-chambers. In order to facilitate the separate opening or separate closing of each sub-chamber, the door body assembly 300 in this embodiment includes a plurality of door panels corresponding to the sub-openings 120. These door panels are respectively used to separately 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 alone, only need to open the corresponding door panel to complete the target washing of the user, improving the convenience of use for the user.

[0069] Refer to Figures 12 to 17, in one embodiment, the door assembly 300 may also include a door panel, and one door panel corresponds to controlling the opening or closing of multiple sub-chambers, and can be set according to user requirements.

[0070] Referring to Figures 4 to 10 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the partition assembly 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 users to select the upper sub-chamber 111 when using the dishwasher 10 frequently, reduce the number of times users bend down, and improve user satisfaction.

[0071] In one embodiment, the partition assembly 200 may also include a vertical partition, and the vertical partition divides the inner cavity 110 to form a left sub-chamber 113 and a right sub-chamber 114. Of course, the partition assembly 200 may also include both a horizontal partition and a vertical partition, or multiple horizontal partitions or vertical partitions at the same time, so as to divide the inner cavity 110 into multiple sub-chambers arranged horizontally or vertically as required, and no special limitation is made here.

[0072] Referring to Figures 1 to 10 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the door assembly 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.

[0073] 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 wash using only the upper sub-chamber 111, 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 wash using only the lower sub-chamber 112, 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.

[0074] 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 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, and no special limitation is made here, and it can be set according to specific requirements.

[0075] Referring to Figures 3 to 5, according to an embodiment of the present utility model, 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, and the opening and closing frame 330 is adapted to control the opening and closing of the opening 120.

[0076] It can be understood that the opening and closing frame 330 is movably installed at the opening 120 of the body 100, so that the opening and closing frame 330 can rotate or move relative to the body 100, thereby controlling the opening and closing state of the opening 120. This makes the opening and closing frame 330 a key component connecting the door panel and the body 100. Both the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 are 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 control of the opening and closing 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.

[0077] When it is necessary to open the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 at the same time, 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 with the movement of the opening and closing frame 330, re-sealing the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112. And the upper door panel and the lower door panel can still be individually controlled to open and close their corresponding upper sealing chamber and lower sealing chamber. In this way, the operation steps of opening the entire door body assembly 300 can be reduced, and the operation efficiency can be improved.

[0078] Refer to Figures 3 to 5 , according to an embodiment of the present utility model, 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 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.

[0079] 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 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.

[0080] 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. It connects the upper door panel 310 and the lower door panel 320 together and allows the upper door panel 310 to move thereon.

[0081] 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 a slide rail, a hinge or other mechanical devices. Since the upper door panel 310 is movably installed, when the user frequently uses the upper sealing 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.

[0082] The lower door panel 320 is 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 along with the movement of the opening and closing frame 330 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 overall door body assembly 300 is improved.

[0083] Referring to Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, 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.

[0084] 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.

[0085] The waterway system 400 is communicated with the spray systems 500. The waterway system 400 can transport the clean water to each spray system 500 through connecting parts such as pipes or hoses. It ensures that the water can be accurately distributed to the sub-chambers that need to be cleaned.

[0086] The dishwasher 10 is equipped with multiple spray systems 500. 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 the cleaning agent 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.

[0087] Multiple spray systems 500 correspond one-to-one with multiple sub-chambers, and each spray system 500 can be independently controlled to meet more refined cleaning requirements.

[0088] The sub-chambers are areas inside the dishwasher 10 for placing tableware. They are designed to be independent of each other and well-sealed to prevent water splashing or cross-contamination during the cleaning process.

[0089] During the cleaning process of the dishwasher 10, the water circuit system 400 first supplies clean water and detergent to the spray system 500; then, the spray system 500 cleans the tableware in the corresponding sub-chamber through high-pressure water flow; finally, the cleaned water is discharged from the dishwasher 10 through the drainage mechanism 410.

[0090] Since each sub-chamber has an independent spray system 500 for cleaning, customized cleaning solutions can be developed 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.

[0091] Refer to Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the water circuit system 400 includes a drainage mechanism 410, and the drainage mechanism 410 includes an upper drainage component and a lower drainage component. The upper drainage component is integrated on the partition component 200, and the lower drainage component is integrated at the bottom of the inner cavity 110.

[0092] It can be understood that the upper drainage component is suitable for discharging the wastewater accumulated in the upper sub-chamber after the cleaning process. The upper drainage component is integrated on the partition component 200, and the partition component 200 is located at the bottom of the upper sub-chamber 111. Therefore, the position of the upper drainage component enables it to directly handle the wastewater from the upper sub-chamber. At the same time, integrating the upper drainage component on the partition component 200 can reduce the volume occupied by the upper drainage component when it is set separately, improve the space utilization rate of the inner cavity 110, and is conducive to reducing the flow path of the wastewater inside the dishwasher 10, reducing the risk of cross-contamination, and improving the drainage efficiency.

[0093] The lower drainage component is integrated at the bottom of the inner cavity 110 of the dishwasher 10. The lower drainage component is responsible for collecting and discharging the wastewater from the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0094] 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.

[0095] Refer to Figures 20 to 22, according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the partition assembly 200 is disposed obliquely upward from the side of the inner cavity 110 opposite to the opening 120 towards the opening 120, and an upper drain opening 210 is provided on the side of the partition assembly 200 away from the opening 120.

[0096] It can be understood that the inclination of the partition assembly 200 causes the upper end surface of the partition assembly 200 not to be completely perpendicular to the horizontal plane, but to have a certain slope. The partition assembly 200 gradually rises 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 drain opening 210, thereby facilitating the discharge of the wastewater from the dishwasher 10 more easily. Secondly, the inclined partition assembly 200 can reduce the accumulation of wastewater in the upper sub-chamber 111 and reduce 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.

[0097] The upper drain opening 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. This enables the wastewater to naturally converge at the upper drain opening 210 when flowing along the inclined plane of the partition assembly 200.

[0098] The main function of the upper drain opening 210 is to discharge the wastewater accumulated above the partition assembly 200 from the dishwasher 10. Due to the inclined design of the partition assembly 200, the wastewater can flow smoothly towards and through the upper drain opening 210, thereby improving the drainage efficiency.

[0099] Refer to Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the partition assembly 200 includes a first partition portion 220 and a second partition portion 230, and the adjacent side of the first partition portion 220 and the second partition portion 230 is disposed obliquely downward. It can be understood that in this embodiment, a V-shaped structure is formed by disposing the adjacent side of the first partition portion 220 and the second partition portion 230 obliquely downward. When the wastewater flows through the upper end surface of the partition assembly 200, a confluence area will be formed at its low-lying position. At the same time, since the whole partition assembly 200 is inclined towards the side of the upper drain opening 210, therefore, under the guidance of the secondary inclination of the wastewater on the upper end surface of the partition assembly 200, the wastewater in the upper sub-chamber 111 can be discharged more quickly, improving the wastewater discharge efficiency.

[0100] In other embodiments, the cross-section of the partition assembly 200 parallel to the opening 120 may be provided in a W shape or an arc shape to form a confluence area on the upper end surface of the partition assembly 200.

[0101] Refer to Figures 20 to 22, according to an embodiment of the present utility model, a water collecting tank 240 is formed between the first partition portion 220 and the second partition portion 230. 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 filtering member 250 is covered at the notch of the water collecting tank 240.

[0102] It can be understood that the water collecting tank 240 is located between the first partition portion 220 and the second partition portion 230, and its shape and size are determined according to the specific design of the dishwasher 10. Generally, the water collecting tank 240 extends along the depth direction of the opening 120 so as to collect waste water and residues from the upper area.

[0103] The water collecting tank 240 is suitable for collecting and temporarily storing waste water 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 waste water 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 waste water can be discharged in a timely and effective manner, avoiding the accumulation and retention of waste water inside the dishwasher 10. Due to the existence of the water collecting tank 240, the waste water will be collected and temporarily stored in the water collecting tank 240 first during the discharge process, and then discharged through the upper drain port 210. It helps to reduce the splashing and overflow of waste water during the discharge process and improves the drainage efficiency.

[0104] The filtering member 250 is arranged 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 effect of the filtering member 250, it can be ensured that only waste water enters the water collecting tank 240 and the upper drain port 210, thus protecting the smooth operation of the drainage system.

[0105] Refer to Figures 20 to 22 , according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the filtering 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 filtering 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 grasp, such as a groove, a protrusion or a handle, etc. When the filtering member 250 accumulates too many impurities and affects the drainage effect, the user can easily take out the filtering member 250 through the handle and clean it. After cleaning, the filtering member 250 can be put back in place through the handle.

[0106] 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.

[0107] It can be understood that the slag discharging system is applicable to automatically or manually discharge the food residues accumulated at the bottom of the sub-chamber outside the dishwasher 10 after the dishwasher 10 completes the cleaning process. This can prevent the residues from accumulating inside the dishwasher 10, which may lead to the growth of bacteria, the generation of odors, and the impact on the subsequent cleaning effect.

[0108] 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 connected to the spraying system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111 or the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0109] It can be understood that the upper water inlet assembly is connected to the spraying system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111 of the dishwasher 10. When it is necessary to clean the tableware on the upper part, the upper water inlet assembly will supply cleaning water to the spraying system 500. The main function of the upper water inlet assembly is to provide stable and appropriate cleaning water for the spraying system 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111. These cleaning waters are sprayed onto the tableware through the spraying system 500 to remove stains and food residues. The lower water inlet assembly is connected to the spraying 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.

[0110] During the cleaning process of the dishwasher 10, the upper water inlet assembly and the lower water inlet assembly will work together. According to the control program of the dishwasher 10 and the user settings, they respectively supply appropriate cleaning water to the spraying systems 500 in the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 to ensure that all the tableware inside the entire dishwasher 10 can be fully cleaned.

[0111] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the dishwasher 10 further includes at least one drying system. The drying system includes a drying module and an air duct. Upper drying openings and lower drying openings 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 openings and the lower drying openings.

[0112] It can be understood that the drying system is an additional function in the dishwasher 10, which is designed to dry tableware and other items after washing to remove the residual moisture and prevent the growth of bacteria.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present utility model, 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 convey the hot air or hot air to all corners inside the washing chamber 110.

[0114] Specifically, on the inner walls of the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, an upper drying port and a lower drying port communicating with the air duct are respectively provided. 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 items such as tableware.

[0115] 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 respectively through the upper drying port and the lower drying port to dry items such as tableware in the chamber.

[0116] By setting up the drying system, it is possible to automatically dry items such as tableware after washing, avoiding the tediousness of manual wiping and the possibility of secondary pollution. The design of the air duct and the drying port ensures that the hot air or hot air can be evenly delivered to every corner of the washing chamber, improving the drying efficiency and quality.

[0117] In some embodiments, the drying module can be arranged 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.

[0118] Refer to Figures 18 to 19 , in one embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a partitioning component 200 and a driving component. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110; the partitioning component 200 is arranged in the inner cavity 110 to divide the inner cavity 110 into at least two mutually independent sub-chambers; the driving component is connected to the partitioning component 200, and the driving component is adapted to drive the partitioning component 200 to move along the first direction of the inner cavity 110 to dynamically adjust the volume ratio of two adjacent sub-chambers.

[0119] In this embodiment, the driving component is closely connected to the partitioning component 200, and its function is to drive the partitioning 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 driving component, the user can easily adjust the volume ratio of two adjacent sub-chambers according to the quantity 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 quantities 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 quantity 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 quantity of the sub-chambers according to their actual needs and enjoy a more convenient and efficient cleaning experience.

[0120] Among them, the driving 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 partitioning component 200 can move smoothly and precisely.

[0121] 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 for illustration, and other embodiments can be implemented with reference to this embodiment.

[0122] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a sealing component, which is disposed between the partitioning component 200 and the cavity wall of the inner cavity 110.

[0123] It can be understood that the sealing component is arranged between the partitioning component 200 and the cavity wall of the inner cavity 110, and is suitable for filling the tiny gap between the two to prevent water, steam, detergent or other cleaning media from leaking into the 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.

[0124] Optionally, the sealing component may include forms such as sealing strips, sealing rings or gaskets, and the specific form can be selected according to the design of the specific dishwasher 10 and the shape of the partitioning component 200, and no special limitation is made here.

[0125] In some embodiments, the cavity wall of the inner cavity 110 and the outer peripheral wall of the partitioning component 200 are arranged flush with each other.

[0126] It can be understood that setting the cavity wall of the inner cavity 110 flush with the outer peripheral wall of the partition assembly 200 is more conducive to the driving assembly driving the partition assembly 200 to move along the first direction of the inner cavity 110, while enabling the sealing assembly to better fit between the two to maintain the sealing performance of adjacent sub-chambers.

[0127] In one 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 communicated with the water circuit system 400.

[0128] 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 cleaning agent on 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 the upper spray system and the lower spray system to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, both the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 can be used separately. Users can choose to use either one alone for washing according to their needs, or wash simultaneously, improving the applicability and user satisfaction of the dishwasher 10.

[0129] In some embodiments, the upper spray system is arranged on the partition assembly 200 and can move with the partition assembly 200.

[0130] 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. Ensuring that the spray system 500 can effectively clean the tableware in the upper sub-chamber 111.

[0131] Since the upper spray system can move 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.

[0132] 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 cleaning agent can directly act on the surface of the tableware, improving the cleaning effect.

[0133] Of course, in other embodiments, the upper spray assembly may also be fixedly disposed at the top of the upper sub-chamber 111, or spray systems 500 may be provided at both the top and bottom of the upper sub-chamber 111. No special limitation is made herein.

[0134] In some embodiments, the water circuit 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 in communication with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0135] It can be understood that the water inlet mechanism 420 is adapted to provide 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 in communication with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through specific pipes or connectors. During the cleaning process, the water inlet mechanism 420 supplies an appropriate amount of water flow and cleaning agent to the corresponding sub-chamber according to a preset cleaning program.

[0136] The drainage mechanism 410 is adapted to drain 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 pipe, and a drainage valve, and can quickly and effectively drain the wastewater outside the dishwasher 10. The drainage mechanism 410 is also respectively in communication with the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through specific pipes or connectors. During the drainage process, the drainage mechanism 410 opens the corresponding drainage valve and starts the drainage pump to pump out the wastewater from the sub-chamber and drain it out of the dishwasher 10.

[0137] 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, enhancing the flexibility and practicality of the dishwasher 10.

[0138] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a heating system. The heating system is connected to the water circuit system 400, and the heating system is adapted to heat the washing water in the water circuit system 400.

[0139] It can be understood that the heating system is usually integrated into the water circuit system 400 and is connected to the water inlet mechanism 420 and the washing chamber through pipes 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 rises, the activity of the detergent also increases, 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 the tableware. This is of great significance for maintaining the hygiene of the tableware and preventing the growth of bacteria. At a higher temperature, stains and grease are more easily washed away by the water flow, thus reducing the cleaning time and energy consumption.

[0140] In one embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a door assembly 300, and a partition assembly

[0141] 200. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110 and an opening 120 communicating with the inner cavity 110; the door assembly 300 is used to open or close the opening 120 movably; the partition assembly

[0142] 200 is adapted to divide the inner cavity 110 into an upper sub-chamber 111 and a lower sub-chamber 112 that are independent of each other; wherein, the dishwasher 10 includes at least one working mode. In the first working mode, the upper sub-chamber 111 is washed alone and the lower sub-chamber 112 is not started.

[0143] In this embodiment, the inner cavity 110 of the body 100 is divided into two independent upper sub-chamber 111 and lower sub-chamber 112 by the partition assembly. The user can select the operating mode of the dishwasher 10 according to the needs. In the first working mode, only the upper sub-chamber 111 performs a separate washing program, while the lower sub-chamber 112 does not operate, so as to realize the separate use of the upper sub-chamber 111. In the scenario where the user is less and uses it frequently, the washing efficiency and energy conservation can be improved while reducing the number of times the user bends down. Moreover, in other cases, the tableware in the upper and lower chambers can be cleaned simultaneously. The user can select a suitable cleaning method according to the actual needs, thus improving the flexibility and convenience of using the dishwasher 10.

[0144] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a water circuit system 400, an upper spraying system 500, and a lower spraying system 500. The water circuit system 400 is separately communicated with the upper spraying system 500 and the lower spraying system 500.

[0145] It can be understood that the dishwasher 10 includes a waterway system 400, and the waterway system 400 is separately and independently connected to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 respectively. The waterway system 400 is responsible for supplying water, draining water, and providing washing liquid, etc. to each sub-chamber of the dishwasher 10. The waterway system 400 may include a complex network composed of water pumps, pipelines, valves, etc., for controlling the direction and flow rate of water flow.

[0146] The upper spray system 500 is provided corresponding to the upper sub-chamber 111 for completing the spray washing program of the upper sub-chamber 111.

[0147] The lower spray system 500 is provided corresponding to the lower sub-chamber 112 for completing the spray washing program of the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0148] The waterway system 400 is separately connected to the upper spray system 500 and the lower spray system 500 to realize the independent water supply to the upper spray system 500 and the lower spray system 500 through the waterway system 400. Thus, through the independent control of the upper spray system 500 and the lower spray system 500, the separate use of the upper sub-chamber 111 or the lower sub-chamber 112 can be realized. At the same time, one set of waterway system 400 corresponds to multiple sub-chambers, which can simplify the setting of the waterway system 400 and reduce the overall volume of the dishwasher 10.

[0149] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes a second working mode. In the second working mode, the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 are separately washed.

[0150] In the second working 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.

[0151] In some embodiments, the waterway system 400 includes a washing pump and a water distribution valve, and the washing pump is connected to the upper spray system and the lower spray system through the water distribution valve.

[0152] It can be understood that the washing pump provides a power source for the entire waterway 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 spray system 500 and is responsible for precisely distributing the washing water to the upper spray system and the lower spray 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 spray systems 500.

[0153] The upper spray system and the lower spray 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 spray system and the lower spray 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 realize independent or simultaneous water supply to the upper spray system and the lower spray system, so as to meet different cleaning needs.

[0154] In one embodiment, the dishwasher 10 includes a body 100, a partition assembly 200, a water circuit system 400 and a dispenser. The body 100 has an inner cavity 110; the partition assembly 200 is installed in the inner cavity 110 to divide the inner cavity 110 into relatively independent upper and lower sub-chambers 111 and 112; the 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 connected to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 through the dispenser to separately control the water supply and drainage of the water circuit system 400 to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0155] In this embodiment, the inner cavity 110 of the body 100 is divided into two independent sub-chambers by the partition assembly. The water circuit system 400 is separately connected to each sub-chamber through the dispenser to realize the independent water inlet and drainage of each sub-chamber. Users 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 users 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.

[0156] In some embodiments, the water circuit 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 connected to the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, and the dispenser is respectively connected to the water inlet mechanism 420 and the drainage mechanism 410.

[0157] It can be understood that the water inlet mechanism 420 is adapted to provide the water source required for cleaning the dishwasher 10. It usually includes components such as water pumps, filters, heaters, etc., as well as a series of connecting pipelines for transporting clean water to various parts of the dishwasher 10. In this embodiment, the water inlet mechanism 420 is not only directly connected to 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 supply an appropriate amount of clean water to the upper and lower sub-chambers simultaneously or separately as needed.

[0158] The drainage mechanism 410 is suitable for draining 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 drained after the cleaning is completed. Since the dispenser is in communication with both 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 accurate drainage control, such as indirectly affecting the drainage speed and efficiency by adjusting the water inlet flow rate.

[0159] 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 a preset cleaning program or a user's instruction. At the same time, it can also assist in adjusting the drainage speed and direction during the drainage stage to achieve a more efficient and energy-saving cleaning process.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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 internal space of 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 water circuit 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.

[0162] In some embodiments, the dishwasher 10 further includes at least one set of disinfection systems for disinfecting the tableware in the upper sub-chamber 111 or the lower sub-chamber 112.

[0163] It can be understood that in this embodiment, one set of disinfection systems can be set to disinfect the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112, so that the internal space of the machine body 100 occupied by setting multiple sets of disinfection systems can be reduced. Of course, in other embodiments, one set of disinfection systems can also be separately set for the upper sub-chamber 111 and the lower sub-chamber 112 respectively.

[0164] Optionally, the disinfection system can disinfect the sub-chamber in one or a combination of more than two modes such as high-temperature disinfection, ultraviolet disinfection, or ozone disinfection.

[0165] In some embodiments, the water circuit system 400 further includes a water circulation system connected between the sub-chamber and the spray system 500.

[0166] It can be understood that the water circulation system can collect and filter the washing water sprayed by the inlet spray system 500 in the sub-chamber during the washing or rinsing process, and then spray it again through the spray system 500 onto the tableware in the sub-chamber, which can effectively save water resources.

[0167] 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.
