The first water inlet pipe 21 is installed on the base 10 of the dishwasher tub, and the second water inlet pipe 22 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the dishwasher tub, located above the first water inlet pipe 21 and extending upward.

[0025] The sprayer 30 is divided into three layers, including an upper sprayer 31, a middle sprayer 32, and a lower sprayer 33. The upper sprayer 31, the middle sprayer 32, and the lower sprayer 33 are arranged from top to bottom. The upper sprayer 31 is installed on the first water inlet pipe 21, and the middle sprayer 32 and the lower sprayer 33 are installed on the second water inlet pipe 22.

[0026] There is one upper sprayer 31, located at the top center of the dishwasher inner tub; there are two middle sprayers 32 and two lower sprayers 33. The two middle sprayers 32 are arranged roughly side by side, and the two lower sprayers 33 are also arranged roughly side by side, for a total of five sprayers 30 spraying the dishwasher inner tub together.

[0027] To increase the coverage area of ​​the spray, the two lower sprayers 33 can be slightly staggered vertically, and the length of the spray arm of the lower sprayer 33 can be appropriately extended, thereby improving the coverage rate of the spray. (Refer to...) Figure 4 As shown.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 As shown, a mounting groove 11 is provided on the upper side of the base 10. The mounting groove 11 is adapted to the shape of the first water inlet pipe 21, and the first water inlet pipe 21 is at least partially embedded in the mounting groove 11. By embedding the first water inlet pipe 21, the bottom of the dishwasher can be kept basically flat.

[0029] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the first water inlet pipe 21 is open, and the mounting groove 11 can seal and cover the bottom of the first water inlet pipe 21. A seal can be installed at the connection to maintain the seal.

[0030] The base 10 has a first water outlet 12 and a second water outlet 13. The first water outlet 12 is connected to the second water inlet pipe 22, and the second water outlet 13 is also connected to the second water inlet pipe 22.

A valve plate 42 is rotatably connected to the water distributor 40 and can be driven to rotate by a motor. The valve plate 42 has four control positions arranged in a circumferential array, three of which have through holes 421, while the other is closed.

[0035] By rotating the regulating valve plate 42, when two of the through holes 421 of the valve plate 42 are connected to the first water outlet 12 and the second water outlet 13, the two water inlet pipes 20 can be connected together, and the three spray layers 30 can spray simultaneously. When the closed position of the valve plate 42 is opposite to the first water outlet 12 and one of the through holes 421 of the valve plate 42 is opposite to the second water outlet 13, the first water inlet pipe 21 can be connected and the second water inlet pipe 22 can be closed, allowing the upper sprayer 31 and the middle sprayer 32 to spray while the lower sprayer 33 is paused. When the closed position of the valve plate 42 is opposite to the second water outlet 13 and one of the through holes 421 of the valve plate 42 is opposite to the first water outlet 12, the second water inlet pipe 22 can be connected and the first water inlet pipe 21 can be closed, allowing the lower sprayer 33 to spray while the upper sprayer 31 and the middle sprayer 32 are paused.

[0036] The base 10 is integrally formed with a water cup 15, and the water distributor 40 has a water inlet hole 41 on its outer periphery. The water inlet hole 41 is connected to the inner cavity of the water distributor 40 and is used to supply water to the water distributor 40.
