[0044] The following examples are used to illustrate the present application, but the present application is not limited by these examples. Modifications to the specific embodiments of the present application or equivalent replacements to some technical features are made without departing from the spirit of the present application, which should be covered in the technical solution range claimed by the present application.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] Reference Figures 1-2 The present embodiment provides a spray arm mechanism, which comprises a first spray arm 1, two second spray arms and a drive assembly 6. The first spray arm 1 comprises a main spray arm 11 and a driving member (not shown in the figure). The main spray arm 11 is provided with a first flow channel (not shown in the figure), a first water inlet 111 and a plurality of first spray holes 112. The first flow channel is connected to the plurality of first spray holes 112. In the present embodiment, the first water inlet 111 is arranged at the middle of the top of the main spray arm 11 in the left-right direction. The plurality of first spray holes 112 are arranged at the top of the main spray arm 11 and are spaced apart along the length direction of the main spray arm 11. A spray arm shaft 41 is arranged vertically at the first water inlet 111 and is rotationally connected to the main spray arm 11. The driving member is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the main spray arm 11 and is coaxially arranged with the first water inlet 111. In this way, when the main spray arm 11 is rotated by the water flow, the driving member can be rotated synchronously. At the same time, the arrangement of the driving member can prevent the stability of the rotation of the main spray arm from being affected.

[0047] The two second spray arms 2 are arranged in parallel and in the same direction above the main spray arm 11 and are respectively located at the left and right outer sides of the driving member. The second spray arm 2 comprises a secondary spray arm 21 and a driven member 22. The secondary spray arm 21 is provided with a second flow channel 2103, a second water inlet 2101 and a plurality of second spray holes 2102. The second water inlet 2101 is connected to the plurality of second spray holes 2102 through the second flow channel 2103. The driven member 22 is fixedly connected to the secondary spray arm 21. The drive assembly 6 is arranged at the front side or the rear side of the driving member. The driving member is drivingly connected to the driven members 22 of the two second spray arms 2 through the drive assembly 6. In the present embodiment, the secondary spray arm 21 is preferably a circular spray arm. The two second spray arms 2 and the drive assembly 6 are surrounded to form an H-shaped structure. The distance between the two second spray arms 2 is greater than the diameter of the driving member.

[0048] When the main spray arm 11 is driven to rotate by water flow, the main member can be synchronously rotated, and the main member can be linked with the two secondary spray arms 21 to rotate at the same time through the transmission assembly 6, so that the spray water column formed by the main spray arm 11 and the two secondary spray arms 21 is crossed, the spray diversity is enriched, the flushing angle is increased, and the cleaning effect of the dishwasher is effectively improved. In addition, by arranging the transmission assembly 6, the size of the main member is not limited between the two secondary spray arms 2, the rotating force is transmitted to the farther side, and the spray effect of the four-corner position of the inner container is further improved.

[0049] Reference Figures 1-3 The main member is a first rotating disc 12, the first rotating disc 12 is connected and fixed at the top of the first spray arm 11 and coaxially arranged with the first water inlet 111, and a variable-pitch spiral rib 1201 is arranged on the top of the first rotating disc 12 along the circumferential direction thereof. The driven member 22 is a second gear. The transmission assembly 6 includes a connecting rod 61, a connecting gear 62 and two first gears 63. The connecting rod 61 is arranged on the front side or the rear side above the first rotating disc 12. The connecting gear 62 is fixedly connected to the middle part outside the connecting rod 61 and is engaged with the variable-pitch spiral rib 1201 to form a primary transmission. At this time, the cooperation between the connecting gear 62 and the variable-pitch spiral rib 1201 on the top of the first rotating disc 12 can be regarded as the cooperation of a cam mechanism, and the first rotating disc plays a role of reliably supporting the transmission assembly 6. The two first gears 63 are respectively fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the connecting rod 61 and are respectively engaged with the second gears of the two secondary spray arms 2 to form two secondary transmissions. In this embodiment, the first gear 63 and the second gear are preferably bevel gears. Thus, the cooperation of the variable-pitch spiral rib 1201, the connecting gear 62, the first gear 63 and the second gear forms a secondary transmission, the rotating force can be transmitted to the farther side, and the spray effect of the four-corner position is further improved, and the cleaning effect is further improved.

[0050] Reference Figures 1-7 Specifically, the number of turns of the variable-pitch spiral rib 1201 is greater than 1 turn; the connecting gear 62 has teeth 621 uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction thereof, the distance Q1Q2 between adjacent two turns is n times of the arc length M1M2 between adjacent two teeth 621, so that the first rotating disc 12 rotates one turn following the main spray arm 11, and the connecting gear 62 rotates n teeth. It is particularly pointed out that Figure 4 The dashed line P1P2 is a ray on the first rotating disc 12, wherein Q1 and Q2 are the intersection points of the ray and the variable-pitch spiral rib 1201, and the distance between Q1 and Q2 is a specific distance; and Figure 7 The circular dashed line L is a division circle on the connecting gear 62, wherein M1 and M2 are respectively the intersection points of the middle points of adjacent two teeth 621 on the division circle of the connecting gear 62.

[0051] More specifically, the variable-pitch helical rib 1201 is equiangular and uniform variable-pitch, and / or n is 1-5. In the present embodiment, the variable-pitch helical rib 1201 has a winding number greater than 1 and less than 2, the gear teeth 621 are preferably straight teeth, and n is preferably 1, so that the distance Q1Q2 is equal to the arc length M1M2. In this case, the main spray arm 11 drives the first rotating disc 12 to rotate one full circle, and the connecting gear 62 rotates one gear tooth.

[0052] With reference to Figures 1-2 , the rotational axis of the second spray arm 2 is perpendicular to the rotational axis of the first spray arm 1, specifically, the rotational axis of the main spray arm 11 is perpendicular to the rotational axis of the auxiliary spray arm 21. The angle between the orientation of the first spray hole 112 and the rotational plane of the first spray arm 1 is in the range of 40-90°, preferably 45-90°; the angle between the orientation of the second spray hole 2102 and the rotational plane of the second spray arm 2 is in the range of 0-50°, preferably 0-45°, so that the spray water columns of the first spray arm 1 and the second spray arm 2 intersect, enriching the spray diversity and effectively enhancing the cleaning effect of the dishwasher. It is particularly noted that the rotational plane of the first spray arm 1 is a horizontal plane, which is perpendicular to the rotational axis of the first spray arm 1; the rotational plane of the second spray arm 2 is a similar vertical plane, which is perpendicular to the rotational axis of the second spray arm 2.

The outer ring 122 is arranged at the periphery of the inner ring 121, and the plurality of connecting ribs 123 are circumferentially spaced between the inner ring 121 and the outer ring 122. The opposite ends of the connecting rib 123 in the radial direction are fixedly connected to the inner ring 121 and the outer ring 122, respectively, so that the outer ring 122 and the inner ring 121 are fixedly connected as a whole by the connecting rib 123. The central hole 1203 is arranged at the center of the inner ring 121, and the variable-pitch helical rib 1201 is arranged on the side of the outer ring 122 away from the main spray arm 11. The bottom of the inner ring 121 is flush with the bottom of the outer ring 122, the top of the inner ring 121 is higher than the top of the outer ring 122, and the height of the connecting rib 123 gradually decreases from inside to outside, so that the rotating disc 12 is arranged with the middle part being higher and the outer edge being lower.

[0055] The reinforcing ribs 124 are connected between the adjacent connecting ribs 123, and the lattice holes 1204 are formed between the adjacent connecting ribs 123, so as to effectively reduce the overall weight of the rotating disc 12 and facilitate reduction of the influence of the rotating disc 12 on the rotation of the main spray arm 11. The mounting portions 1202 are arranged at two opposite lattice holes 1204, and the mounting portions 1202 are integrally formed on the inner ring radially inward. In addition, the empty portions 1205 are arranged at the positions of the inner ring 121 corresponding to the mounting portions 1202, so as to provide sufficient mounting space for the rotating disc, and facilitate detachable connection of the mounting portions 1202 on the rotating disc 12 with the top of the main spray arm 11 by the connecting members (such as screws).

[0056] Reference Figures 6-7 In the embodiment, the connecting rod 61 is a hollow rod, so as to reduce the weight and reduce the consumption.
