BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0012] Fig. 1 It is a structural schematic view of the dishwasher base in the embodiment;

[0013] Fig. 2 It is a side view of the adjusting assembly in the embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] In order to deepen the understanding of the present application, the present application will be further described in combination with the embodiments and the drawings, and the embodiments are only used to explain the present application and do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present application.

[0015] Please refer to Figs. 1-2 The present application provides a steam amount adjustable structure of a dishwasher steam system, which comprises a water inlet pipe 1, an adjusting assembly, a steam generator 2 and steam nozzles 3. The number of steam nozzles 3 in the embodiment is two or more, and the steam nozzles are fixedly installed on the inner tank wall of the dishwasher. The water inlet pipe is connected with the input end of the steam generator. The output end of the steam generator is connected with the steam nozzles through a steam pipe 4. The adjusting assembly comprises a sliding seat 5, a sliding block 6 and a driving source 7. The sliding block is slidingly connected to the sliding seat, and a pipe arrangement area 8 is formed between the bottom of the sliding block 6 and the sliding seat. The water inlet pipe 1 passes through the pipe arrangement area. The sliding block 6 can slide relative to the sliding seat 5 to adjust the size of the pipe arrangement area 8. The driving source is used to drive the sliding block to slide. By controlling the driving source to drive the sliding block to move, the size of the pipe arrangement area is adjusted, and the water amount input into the steam generator is controlled. Specifically, when the pipe arrangement area becomes smaller, the water inlet pipe is extruded and flattened by the sliding block, so that the water amount passing through is reduced.

[0016] The driving source 7 is a driving motor, and a gear 9 is connected to the rotating shaft of the driving motor. A rack structure 10 is distributed on the sliding block. The gear is engaged with the rack structure. Under the cooperation of the gear and the rack structure, when the gear rotates, the sliding block slides relative to the sliding seat. In order to ensure that the sliding block can slide stably, slide grooves 11 are arranged on the inner sides of the sliding seat. The two sides of the sliding block are provided with slide steps 12 which are slidingly connected with the slide grooves. Under the cooperation of the slide steps and the slide grooves, the stability of the sliding block during sliding can be ensured.

[0017] The slider 6 in the embodiment set is arranged obliquely, and the pipe arranging area 8 gradually increases when the slider slides to the first end of the slide base 5, and gradually decreases when the slider slides to the second end of the slide base.

[0018] The dishwasher further comprises a dishwasher base 13, and a double-head water inlet valve 14 is arranged on the dishwasher base; the water inlet pipe 1 is connected with a first water outlet end of the double-head water inlet valve, and a second water outlet end of the double-head water inlet valve is connected with a dishwasher breather for normal water supply and spraying. The steam water and the spraying cleaning water are arranged to be independently supplied, so as to avoid mutual influence of the two water supply ways.

[0019] The steam generator 2 is provided with a temperature control switch 15, which is used for controlling the heating device on the steam generator, and is used for monitoring the temperature of the steam generator; when the temperature is too high, the power supply of the heating device is switched immediately, so as to avoid dry burning.

[0020] In addition, in the scheme, the steam nozzle can be used as a water spraying nozzle for cleaning dishes when the steam generator is not used.

[0021] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, but any equivalent modification or change made by the ordinary skilled in the art according to the disclosed content of the present application shall be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
