Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen utensils technology, specifically to an integrated cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] To improve kitchen space utilization, integrated cleaning devices have emerged in household kitchens. For example, the Chinese invention patent "Integrated Dishwasher" disclosed in patent application number CN202310352709.7 (publication number CN116369809A) mainly includes a sink, an overflow component, and the dishwasher body. The integrated dishwasher also includes an exhaust fan installed within an exhaust duct. The exhaust duct includes a return water section located near the cleaning chamber, with the exhaust fan positioned on the side of the return water section away from the cleaning chamber. The return water section guides the condensate back into the cleaning chamber. The exhaust fan can be installed within a guide section, and the return water section can be angled downwards or vertically. Hot, humid air flows upwards along the return water section, easily forming condensate during this flow. This condensate flows downwards along the return water section and back into the cleaning chamber to prevent leakage.

[0003] Condensation is easily generated during airflow in the exhaust pipe; therefore, the exhaust duct of this patent has a water return section. Figure 1 As can be seen, the vent and overflow holes of the sink are both located on the right side of the dishwasher body. This allows for the connection between the sink and the dishwasher body with a shorter exhaust pipe, and also makes it easier for condensate to flow back into the dishwasher body.

[0004] However, for some integrated dishwashers, the vent and overflow holes of the dishwasher body are located on different sides of the dishwasher body in the left-right direction. This requires the exhaust duct to be relatively long and have bends to connect the dishwasher body and the sink. Although this patent makes the end of the exhaust duct near the vent as the return section, with a long exhaust duct and bends, the condensate inside is difficult to flow back to the dishwasher body along the exhaust duct. This causes the airflow to impact the condensate during the flow, producing bubbling and rattling noises in the exhaust duct, especially at the bends of the exhaust duct, where this phenomenon is more obvious. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an integrated cleaning device that prevents bubbling noises caused by the accumulation of condensate inside the exhaust pipe, in light of the current state of the technology.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is: an integrated cleaning device, including a water tank, wherein the water tank is provided with an air inlet that communicates with its interior;

[0007] A dishwasher, wherein the dishwasher is provided with an exhaust vent that communicates with its interior;

[0008] Exhaust duct, used to connect the exhaust port and the air inlet port;

[0009] The feature is that the air inlet and the air outlet are located on different sides of the central axis of the dishwasher in the left-right direction, and the exhaust pipe has at least one bend for connecting in the vertical and horizontal directions;

[0010] At least one of the bends is provided with an exhaust transition structure that is larger than the airflow area of ​​the exhaust pipe. The exhaust transition structure is provided with an air inlet, an air outlet and a water outlet for condensate to flow out, and the exhaust transition structure is provided with a guide slope that is inclined from the air inlet to the air outlet.

[0011] The airflow area of ​​the exhaust transition structure is larger than that of the exhaust duct. When the airflow passes through this area, the flow area increases, which reduces the airflow velocity and the condensation velocity of the airflow in the vertical extension of the exhaust duct. At the same time, it makes it easier for the condensate in the vertical exhaust duct to flow down, thereby reducing the abnormal noise caused by excessive wind speed blowing up the condensate. In addition, the increased airflow area of ​​the exhaust transition structure makes the exhaust smooth and reduces the internal pressure of the dishwasher. Otherwise, if the internal pressure of the dishwasher is too high, the airflow will leak out from the door gap.

[0012] Preferably, the air inlet is located on the side wall of the exhaust transition structure, the air outlet is located on the top wall of the exhaust transition structure, and the water outlet is located on the bottom wall of the exhaust transition structure. The water outlet and the air outlet are vertically offset to reduce airflow backflow.

[0013] To facilitate the discharge of condensate, the exhaust transition structure is partially recessed to form a concave region. The water outlet is located in the concave region. The concave region increases the condensation area of ​​the airflow, causing moisture to condense preferentially before the exhaust transition structure. Under the action of gravity, the condensate will flow towards the concave region and eventually be discharged.

[0014] Preferably, the exhaust transition structure is internally divided into a first part and a second part. The air inlet is located in the first part, and the air outlet and water outlet are located in the second part. The bottom wall of the first part is a first inclined surface that slopes downwards towards the second part; this first inclined surface is the guide inclined surface. The bottom wall of the second part is a stepped structure with the height decreasing sequentially from the air outlet to the water outlet; the lowest point of the bottom wall of the second part is the recessed area. The arrangement of the first inclined surface and the stepped structure of the second part increases the condensation area and accelerates the discharge of condensate.

[0015] To ensure effective condensation and drainage of condensate in the exhaust transition structure, the exhaust duct includes a first pipe body and a second pipe body. The inlet end of the first pipe body is connected to the exhaust port, and the exhaust end of the second pipe body is connected to the inlet port. The exhaust transition structure is located between the outlet end of the first pipe body and the inlet end of the second pipe body. The air inlet is connected to the first pipe body, and the air outlet is connected to the second pipe body. The length of the first pipe body is greater than the length of the second pipe body. Since the airflow is relatively cool after passing through the first pipe body, condensate is easily formed; therefore, the exhaust transition structure is provided at the outlet end of the first pipe body.

[0016] Preferably, the first pipe body and / or the exhaust transition structure are at least partially attached to the side wall of the dishwasher, so that the temperature of the dishwasher can be transferred to the first pipe body and / or the exhaust transition structure, thereby reducing the generation of condensate during the exhaust process.

[0017] In the above scheme, the first pipe body includes a horizontally extending transverse section and a vertically extending vertical section. The lower end of the vertical section is connected to the exhaust port, and the upper end of the vertical section is connected to the transverse section. The transverse section extends left and right and is located between the top wall of the dishwasher and the bottom wall of the sink. The second pipe body extends vertically, with its lower end connected to the transverse section and its upper end connected to the air inlet. A bend is formed between the second pipe body and the transverse section, where an exhaust transition structure is installed. This structural form of the first pipe body allows for smooth airflow, minimizes the number of bends in the exhaust pipe, and keeps the exhaust pipe as short as possible.

[0018] Preferably, the exhaust transition structure is integrally formed with the exhaust pipe or designed separately. The integral forming ensures a firm connection between the exhaust transition structure and the exhaust pipe, while the separate design facilitates processing, packaging, transportation, and subsequent installation and maintenance. Before the integrated cleaning device is assembled, the exhaust pipe and the exhaust transition structure can be designed separately, and then connected when assembly is required.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: The air inlet on the sink and the exhaust port on the dishwasher are located on different sides of the dishwasher in the left-right direction. This requires a longer exhaust pipe path with bends to connect the air inlet and exhaust port. Condensation is most likely to accumulate at the bends. Therefore, this application provides an exhaust transition structure at at least one bend in the exhaust pipe. The increased airflow area of ​​the exhaust transition structure is to reduce the airflow condensation speed in the vertical extension of the exhaust pipe by adjusting the wind speed. At the same time, it is to prevent the condensate from being blown up by the gas and falling down, thereby reducing bubbling noise. The guide slope is to increase the condensation area in the exhaust transition structure, so that the moisture condenses as much as possible in the exhaust transition structure, thereby further reducing its accumulation in the vertical extension of the exhaust pipe. That is, by adjusting the airflow area and designing the guide slope, the two work together to ensure that the condensate falls down and is discharged in time when there is airflow, thereby preventing bubbling noise.

[0031] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the integrated cleaning device of this preferred embodiment includes a water tank 1, a dishwasher 2, an exhaust pipe, and an exhaust transition structure 5.

[0034] The sink 1 has an air inlet 11 that communicates with its interior, and the dishwasher 2 has an exhaust vent that communicates with its interior. An exhaust pipe connects the exhaust vent and the air inlet 11. In this embodiment, the air inlet 11 is located on the rear side wall of the sink 1, and the dishwasher 2 is located directly below the sink 1.

[0035] The air inlet 11 and the exhaust port are located on different sides of the central axis of the dishwasher 2 in the left-right direction (the central axis refers to the axis that passes through the central part of the dishwasher 2 vertically). The exhaust pipe is partially located between the top wall of the dishwasher 2 and the bottom wall of the sink 1. The exhaust pipe has at least one bend for connection in the vertical and horizontal directions. At least one bend is provided with an exhaust transition structure 5 that is larger than the airflow area of ​​the exhaust pipe. The exhaust transition structure 5 is provided with an air inlet 51, an air outlet 52 and a water outlet 53 for condensate to flow out. In this embodiment, the exhaust transition structure 5 is box-shaped.

[0036] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figure 5, the exhaust pipe includes a first pipe body 3 and a second pipe body 4. The air inlet end of the first pipe body 3 is connected to the exhaust port, and the exhaust end of the second pipe body 4 is connected to the air inlet 11. The exhaust transition structure 5 is located between the air outlet end of the first pipe body 3 and the air inlet end of the second pipe body 4. The air inlet 51 is connected to the first pipe body 3, and the air outlet 52 is connected to the second pipe body 4.

[0037] Specifically, the first pipe body 3 includes a horizontally extending transverse section 31 and a vertically extending vertical section 32. The lower end of the vertical section 32 is connected to the exhaust port, and the upper end of the vertical section 32 is connected to the transverse section 31. The transverse section 31 extends left and right and is located between the top wall of the dishwasher 2 and the bottom wall of the sink 1. The second pipe body 4 extends vertically (this means that the two ends of the second pipe body 4 are at different heights, and it is not required that the second pipe body 4 extends strictly along the vertical line). The lower end of the second pipe body 4 is connected to the transverse section 31, and the upper end is connected to the air inlet 11. A bend is formed between the second pipe body 4 and the transverse section 31, where the exhaust transition structure 5 is installed.

[0038] This structural form of the first pipe body 3 ensures smooth airflow, minimizes bends in the exhaust pipe, and keeps the exhaust pipe as short as possible. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the length of the first pipe body 3 is greater than the length of the second pipe body 4. Since the airflow is somewhat cooler after passing through the first pipe body 3, condensation is easily formed; therefore, an exhaust transition structure 5 is provided at the outlet end of the first pipe body 3.

[0039] Furthermore, the first pipe body 3 is at least partially and / or the exhaust transition structure 5 is at least partially attached to the side wall of the dishwasher 2. In other words, the portion of the exhaust transition structure 5 and / or the exhaust pipe located at the top of the dishwasher 2 is at least partially attached to the wall of the dishwasher 2. This not only makes the structure compact, but also allows the heat from the dishwasher 2 to be transferred to the exhaust transition structure 5 and the exhaust pipe, reducing the amount of condensate generated during the exhaust process. The water outlet 53 is connected to the drain pipe 7, and the water outlet end of the drain pipe 7 is connected to the base of the dishwasher 2, allowing the condensate to evaporate in the base. Alternatively, the water outlet end of the drain pipe 7 can be connected to the washing chamber of the dishwasher 2.

[0040] Preferably, the airflow area of ​​the exhaust transition structure 5 is larger than that of the exhaust duct. When the airflow passes through this area, the flow area increases, which reduces the airflow velocity and thus the condensation velocity in the vertical extension of the exhaust duct. This also makes it easier for condensate to flow down in the vertical extension of the exhaust duct, thereby reducing the noise caused by excessive wind speed blowing up condensate. The vertical extension of the exhaust duct is, for example, the second pipe body 4.

[0041] In addition, the increased airflow area of ​​the exhaust transition structure 5 makes the exhaust smooth and reduces the internal pressure of the dishwasher 2. Otherwise, if the internal pressure of the dishwasher 2 is too high, the airflow will leak out from the door gap.

[0042] In this embodiment, from Figure 6 As can be seen, the air inlet 51 is located on the side wall of the exhaust transition structure 5, the air outlet 52 is located on the top wall of the exhaust transition structure 5, and the water outlet 53 is located on the bottom wall of the exhaust transition structure 5. The water outlet 53 and the air outlet 52 are vertically offset to reduce airflow backflow. For better airflow discharge, preferably, as follows... Figure 7 As shown, the plane where the air outlet end face of the air inlet 51 is located is taken as the reference plane, and the straight line that intersects the center line L1 of the air inlet 51 and is parallel to the reference plane is taken as the reference line L2. The intersection point of the reference line L2 and the center line L1 of the air inlet 51 is called the first point. The point where the center line L3 of the air outlet 52 is located on the air outlet end face of the air outlet 52 is called the second point. The angle α between the line L4 connecting the first point and the second point and the reference line L2 is between 45° and 135°.

[0043] The centerline L1 of the air inlet 51 refers to the straight line passing through the center of the air inlet 51 along the direction of airflow, and the centerline L3 of the air outlet 52 refers to the straight line passing through the center of the air outlet 52 along the direction of airflow.

[0044] The bottom wall of the exhaust transition structure 5 is partially recessed to form a recessed area 54. The water outlet 53 is located in the recessed area 54. The recessed area increases the condensation area of ​​the airflow, so that the moisture condenses preferentially before the exhaust transition structure. The condensate will flow towards the recessed area 54 under the action of gravity and eventually be discharged from the water outlet 53.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the exhaust transition structure 5 is internally divided into a first part and a second part. An air inlet 51 is provided corresponding to the first part, and an air outlet 52 and a water outlet 53 are provided corresponding to the second part. The bottom wall of the first part is a first inclined surface 55 that slopes downwards towards the second part. This first inclined surface 55 is a guide slope that slopes from the air inlet 51 towards the air outlet 52. The bottom wall of the second part is a stepped structure with the height decreasing sequentially from the air outlet 52 to the water outlet 53. The lowest point of the bottom wall of the second part is the recessed area 54. The arrangement of the first inclined surface 55 and the stepped structure of the second part increases the condensation area and accelerates the discharge of condensate.

[0046] Because of the integrated cleaning device, the components are arranged compactly. Therefore, the exhaust pipe at the top of the dishwasher 2 and / or the exhaust transition structure 5 are both flat. The exhaust transition structure 5 is located at the edge of the dishwasher 2. In this embodiment, the exhaust transition structure 5 is located at the corner of the dishwasher 2 and at the top of the dishwasher 2.

[0047] The exhaust transition structure 5 is formed by two half-shells joined together, and each half-shell has a concave slope 56 that fits the top wall of the dishwasher 2 and the bottom wall of the sink 1. This allows the entire exhaust transition structure 5 to fit snugly against the sink 1 and the dishwasher 2, while the concave upper shell facilitates the installation of the exhaust pipe and reduces the overall height of the dishwasher 2.

[0048] The exhaust transition structure 5 can be integrally formed with the exhaust duct or designed separately. Integral forming ensures a secure connection between the exhaust transition structure 5 and the exhaust duct, while a separate design facilitates processing, packaging, transportation, and subsequent installation and maintenance. Alternatively, the exhaust duct and exhaust transition structure 5 can be designed separately and connected only when assembly is required, prior to the assembly of the integrated cleaning device. Preferably, the exhaust transition structure 5 and the exhaust duct can be detachably connected, for example, through a threaded connection.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] like Figures 8-11 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that:

[0051] 1. In this embodiment, the exhaust transition structure 5 is located on the side of the air inlet 11 of the dishwasher 2, that is, the exhaust transition structure 5 is located on the side of the dishwasher 2, and the exhaust transition structure 5 is located at the corner of the top of the dishwasher 2. This makes the overall structure compact; and the exhaust transition structure 5 is located at the bend on the side adjacent to the air inlet 11, where the airflow has already flowed in the exhaust pipe for a period of time and is more likely to generate condensate, so the condensation structure is located here to facilitate the collection of condensate.

[0052] 2. The internal structure of the exhaust transition structure 5 in this embodiment differs from that in embodiment 1, such as... Figure 9 As shown, the exhaust transition structure 5 of this embodiment is provided with a vertically extending vertical rib 57 and an inclined rib 58 extending from top to bottom. The vertical rib 57 extends vertically and has a gap between its lower end and the bottom wall of the exhaust transition structure 5. The upper end of the inclined rib 58 is connected to the side wall of the exhaust transition structure 5, and the lower end is connected to the upper end of the vertical rib 57. The inclined rib 58 and the vertical rib 57 work together to divide the interior of the exhaust transition structure 5 into a first region 501 and a second region 502. The air inlet 51 and the air outlet 52 are located in the first region 501, and the water outlet 53 is located in the second region 502. By setting the air outlet 52 and the water outlet 53 in the first region 501 and the second region 502 respectively, the airflow entering from the air inlet 51 will preferentially flow to the air outlet 52 instead of flowing directly to the water outlet 53. The condensate formed during the airflow will flow through the gap between the vertical rib 57 and the exhaust transition structure 5 to the second region 502 and finally flow out from the water outlet 53.

[0053] In addition, the lower end of the inclined rib 58 continues to extend downward toward the air outlet 52 to form an extension rib 59. The lower end of the extension rib 59 faces the air outlet 52 or extends into the air outlet 52. The extension rib 59 and the inclined rib 58 together constitute a guide rib that guides the airflow from the air inlet 51 toward the air outlet 52. The wall surface of the guide rib is a guide slope that is inclined from the air inlet 51 toward the air outlet 52.

[0054] 3. For example Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, an air inlet seat 6 is provided at the air inlet hole 11 of the water tank 1. The air inlet seat 6 includes a groove that is connected to the air inlet hole 11. The air inlet seat 6 also has an air inlet channel 61 that is connected to the second pipe body 4. The air inlet channel 61 and the groove are vertically offset. The top of the groove is through to form an air outlet 62 that is connected to the air inlet channel 61.

[0055] To prevent water in the water tank 1 from overflowing from the top opening, the water tank 1 is also provided with an overflow hole. When the water level exceeds the overflow hole, it will enter the overflow pipe from the overflow hole and eventually be discharged. In this application, the overflow hole and the air inlet 11 are at the same height. In order to prevent water from overflowing from the air inlet 11 into the exhaust pipe, the air inlet channel 61 is provided with a vertically extending limiting rib 63 that bends toward the air inlet 62 on the side of the air outlet 62. The limiting rib 63 plays a role in blocking the water flow.

[0056] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

For example, "upper" and "lower" are not necessarily limited to directions opposite to or consistent with the direction of gravity.
