[0002] As living standards improve, people's demands for a higher quality of life are becoming increasingly stringent, leading to higher expectations for the quality, performance, user-friendly use, and intelligent operation of daily necessities. Dishwashers, as a convenient daily necessity, have also become part of people's lives. In principle, a dishwasher is a device that uses a nozzle to spray high-pressure water to clean dishes. A dishwasher generally includes a dishwasher inner tank, which forms a washing chamber. A dishware insertion opening is located at the front of the inner tank, where a door is positioned. Inside the washing chamber, a dishware rack and a spray device are located. To achieve an ideal cleaning effect, existing dishwasher spray devices typically comprise rotatable spray arms rotatably connected to the inner tank body. The spray arms are connected to a water channel, through which water is sprayed to clean the dishes placed in the inner tank. However, because existing spray arms are located at the bottom of the dishwasher, wastewater after being sprayed and washed can fall into the spray arm, contaminating the clean water inside the spray arm and affecting subsequent cleaning. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a dishwasher spray arm that addresses these issues. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] Example 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a spray arm of a dishwasher is provided with a water storage chamber 2 in a spray arm body 1, a plurality of spray holes 3 are provided on the top of the spray arm body 1, and the plurality of spray holes 3 are evenly arranged on the spray arm body 1, wherein the spacing between two adjacent spray holes 3 is equal, a spray mechanism 4 is installed in the spray hole 3, a water inlet 5 is provided at the bottom of the spray arm body 1, and a water inlet pipe seat 6 is installed at the bottom of the water inlet 5 of the spray arm body 1. Aeration components 7 are also installed on both sides of the bottom of the spray arm body 1, and the output end of the aeration component 7 is connected to the water storage chamber 2.

[0020] In this embodiment, when in use, water is transported to the water storage chamber 2 in the spray arm body 1 through the water inlet pipe seat 6. At the same time, under the effect of the aeration component 7, bubbles are generated in the water, and pressurized in the water storage chamber 2, so that the water can be sprayed out from the spray mechanism 4 in the spray hole 3. When water mixed with bubbles is sprayed towards the dishes, the bubbles in the water flow burst when they come into contact with the dishes and generate a large impact force, thereby dispersing stubborn dirt on the dishes and achieving a better cleaning effect. After the spraying stops and the aeration component 7 stops working, the internal pressure of the water storage chamber 2 decreases, so that the spray mechanism 4 forms a closed state after its internal pressure decreases, preventing the water after the spraying from flowing back into the water storage chamber 2 again.

[0021] Example 2, as Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure on the basis of embodiment 1: the spray arm body 1 includes an upper arm plate 8 and a lower arm plate 9, and the upper arm plate 8 and the lower arm plate 9 are sealed together.
