Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of rinsing tank equipment for dishwashers, and more particularly to a foaming rinsing tank. Background Technology
[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to this application and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] The dishwasher's rinse tank provides clean water after the main wash cycle, avoiding the use of dirty water containing detergent or food residue for rinsing and ensuring a clean final rinse. Additionally, the rinse tank provides a measured amount of water to prevent waste and improve water efficiency. However, existing rinse tanks generally accumulate impurities over time, leading to poor performance. Furthermore, some rinse tanks have a heating function, but the heating is uneven. While the rinse tank can reduce water waste to some extent, its effectiveness is generally limited.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an improved rinsing tank to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Based on this, and in response to the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a foaming rinsing water tank.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this application to solve the problems existing in the prior art is:
[0007] This application proposes a foaming rinse water tank for a dishwasher, including a tank body, wherein the tank body is provided with an upper cavity, a middle cavity and a lower cavity from top to bottom;
[0008] The top of the tank is equipped with a water outlet, which is connected to the water outlet pipe; the bottom of the tank is equipped with a water inlet, which is connected to the water inlet pipe.
[0009] A lower partition is provided between the lower cavity and the middle cavity, and the lower partition is provided with several filter holes;
[0010] An upper partition is provided between the middle cavity and the upper cavity. Multiple mounting ports are provided above the upper partition. Foaming components are threaded to the outside of the mounting ports. Several foaming holes are provided on the foaming components.
[0011] Water entering the lower cavity through the inlet pipe passes through the filter holes on the lower partition and enters the middle cavity. It then enters the foaming component through the installation port, enters the upper cavity through the foaming holes, and finally enters the outlet pipe through the outlet.
[0012] Preferably,
[0013] The mounting port is a hollow cylindrical structure. The bottom of the mounting port is fixed to the upper partition plate and the middle part of the mounting port is connected to the middle cavity. The mounting port is provided with external threads.
[0014] The foaming component has a cap-shaped structure, and a foaming space is provided inside the foaming component. The bottom of the foaming space is located inside the foaming component and has an internal thread that mates with the external thread of the mounting port. The foaming component is connected to the mounting port thread through the internal thread. The foaming space is connected to the upper cavity through foaming holes.
[0015] Preferably,
[0016] A heating rod is provided in the lower cavity, and the heating rod is powered by an external power source.
[0017] Preferably,
[0018] The housing is equipped with a mounting component. One end of the mounting component is fixedly connected to the heating rod through a mounting hole on the housing and fixed to the housing. The other end of the mounting component is located outside the housing and is detachably connected to the cover. A wiring terminal is fixedly provided inside the mounting component and is electrically connected to the heating rod.
[0019] The cover is provided with a threading hole.
[0020] Preferably,
[0021] The lower partition is detachably installed inside the box.
[0022] Preferably,
[0023] The lower partition includes a plate body, one side of which is fixedly connected to an insert strip. The insert strip is engaged with a socket on the box body. A baffle is fixedly provided on the outside of the insert strip, and a handle is fixedly provided on the outside of the baffle.

Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The present application provides a foaming rinsing tank, which includes a tank body 1, and the tank body is provided with an upper cavity 12, a middle cavity 11 and a lower cavity 10 from top to bottom.
[0053] The top of the tank 1 is provided with a water outlet, which is connected to the water outlet pipe 2; the bottom of the tank 1 is provided with a water inlet, which is connected to the water inlet pipe 3.
[0054] A lower partition 7 is provided between the lower cavity 10 and the middle cavity 11, and the lower partition 7 is provided with a number of filter holes;
[0055] An upper partition 6 is provided between the middle cavity 11 and the upper cavity 12. Multiple mounting ports are provided above the upper partition 6. A foaming component 8 is threaded to the outside of the mounting port. The foaming component 8 is provided with several foaming holes.
[0056] refer to Figure 3During use, water entering the lower cavity 10 through the inlet pipe 3 passes through the filter holes on the lower partition 7 into the middle cavity 11, then enters the foaming element 8 through the installation port, and then enters the upper cavity 12 through the foaming holes, finally entering the outlet pipe 2 through the outlet. It should be noted that the water pressure provided in the inlet pipe 3 is greater than 0.1 MPa. In actual use, it can be connected to a tap water pipe or an external water pump for pressurization.
[0057] refer to Figure 3 The mounting port is a hollow columnar structure, with its bottom fixed to the upper partition plate 6 and its middle part connected to the middle cavity 11; the mounting port has an external thread; the foaming component 8 has a cap-shaped structure, with a foaming space inside, and the bottom of the foaming space is located inside the foaming component 8 and has an internal thread that mates with the external thread of the mounting port; the foaming component 8 is threaded to the mounting port through the internal thread; the foaming space is connected to the upper cavity 12 through foaming holes.
[0058] In some embodiments, a heating rod 50 is provided in the lower cavity 10, and the heating rod 50 is powered by an external power source. The external power source can be manually controlled for heating, or it can be connected to an external control device to heat the heating rod 10 under a set time period or specific conditions. For example, the heating rod 10 can be powered on after water flows out of the water outlet pipe 2. This is a common technical means used by those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0059] For example, in one embodiment, the housing 1 is provided with a mounting component 52. One end of the mounting component 52 is fixedly connected to the heating rod 50 through a mounting hole on the housing 1 and fixed to the housing 1. The other end of the mounting component 52 is located outside the housing 1 and is detachably connected to the cover 51. A wiring terminal is fixedly provided inside the mounting component 52 and is electrically connected to the heating rod 50. The cover 51 is provided with a wire hole.
[0060] In some embodiments, the lower partition 7 can be detachably installed inside the housing 1 for easy cleaning.

At this time, the water entering the foaming rinse water tank is not only filtered by the lower partition 7, but also preheated if the heating rod 50 is powered on.
[0063] On the other hand, the filter holes on the lower partition 7 also play a role in foaming to some extent;
[0064] Then the water in the middle cavity 11 is foamed by the foaming component 8 and enters the upper cavity 12; then it enters the subsequent spray device of the dishwasher through the water outlet pipe 2 to clean the dishes.
[0065] In some embodiments, the outer side of the housing 1 is further provided with an insulation layer, and an outer shell is provided outside the insulation layer for insulating the water inside the housing 1.
[0066] This application discloses a foaming rinse water tank for a dishwasher.
