[0030] In order to make the technical personnel in the art better understand the technical solutions of the present disclosure, the present disclosure will be described in detail, clearly and completely in combination with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present disclosure and do not limit the present disclosure.
[0031] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that in the disclosure of the present application, the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, therefore the above terms cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.
[0032] Please refer to Figures 1-3 As shown, the present application provides a spray arm structure for a dishwasher, comprising a spray arm, the spray arm is provided with a water inlet channel and a plurality of first spray assemblies 1, the first spray assembly 1 comprises a V-shaped flow guide groove, the cross section of the flow guide groove is V-shaped, and the flow guide groove is provided with a first water outlet hole 4 which is connected with the water inlet channel. Water enters the inside of the spray arm from the water inlet channel, and is sprayed out from the first water outlet hole 4 to clean the tableware. The cross section of the flow guide groove is V-shaped, which has a guiding effect on the water sprayed out from the first water outlet hole 4, so that the water is sprayed outward along the flow guide groove in a fan shape, which can effectively expand the spray range of the first water outlet hole 4, so that the spray arm has a wider cleaning range. It should be noted that the first spray assembly 1 can be integrally formed with the spray arm, or can be installed in the corresponding reserved mounting hole of the spray arm, and then the first spray assembly 1 is installed on the mounting hole.
[0033] Specifically, the flow guide groove is a long strip-shaped groove, which is provided with a first flow guide structure, the first flow guide structure comprises a first flow guide surface 2 and a second flow guide surface 3, and the first flow guide surface 2 and the second flow guide surface 3 are arranged in a V shape. Such arrangement makes the flow guide groove have an outward diffusion structure, and the water of the first water outlet hole 4 has a tendency to expand outward when sprayed along the first flow guide surface 2 and the second flow guide surface 3, thereby expanding the spray range.
[0034] In some embodiments, the first water outlet hole 4 is arranged on the first flow guide surface 2 or the second flow guide surface 3. If the first water outlet hole 4 is arranged on the first flow guide surface 2, since the first flow guide surface 2 is arranged obliquely, the water sprayed out from the first water outlet hole 4 will impact on the second flow guide surface 3, most of the water is sprayed outward along the second flow guide surface 3, and a small part of the water is sprayed outward along the first flow guide surface 2. Similarly, if the first water outlet hole 4 is arranged on the second flow guide surface 3, the water spray path is similar to the above. Arranging the first water outlet hole 4 only on the first flow guide surface 2 or only on the second flow guide surface 3 will cause the flow of water sprayed along the first flow guide surface 2 and the second flow guide surface 3 to be too different, and the flow of water diverging to both sides will be too different, which may cause the water flow on one side to be too small, affecting the spray stroke, so this embodiment is not preferred.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the first flow guide surface 2 is provided with a first notch, the second flow guide surface 3 is provided with a second notch, the first notch and the second notch are arranged oppositely, and the first water outlet hole 4 is surrounded by the first notch and the second notch. Specifically, the area of the first water outlet hole 4 on the first flow guide surface 2 and the second flow guide surface 3 can be the same or different. Preferably, the area of the first water outlet hole 4 on the first flow guide surface 2 and the second flow guide surface 3 is the same, so that the water can be relatively uniformly sprayed outward along the first flow guide surface 2 and the second flow guide surface 3, thereby effectively expanding the spray range.
[0036] It should be noted that the first gap and the second gap are arc-shaped. The two arc-shaped gaps are combined to make the first water injection hole 4 substantially elliptical, so that the water sprayed by the first water injection hole 4 spreads better along the first guide surface 2 and the second guide surface 3 and is sprayed to both sides.
[0037] As shown in Figures 5-8 particular, the back of the guide groove is provided with a spherical surface 6 protruding to one side of the guide groove, and the first water injection hole 4 penetrates the spherical surface 6 and communicates with the water inlet channel. The back of the guide groove faces the inner water pipe, and the back of the guide groove is provided with the spherical surface 6, which guides the water entering from the inner water pipe, so that the water enters the first water injection hole 4 along the spherical surface 6.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the guide groove is also provided with a second guide structure, and the second guide structure includes two third guide surfaces 5, which are respectively arranged at two ends of the first guide surface 2 and the second guide surface 3. Specifically, the first guide surface 2 and the second guide surface 3 are arranged along the length direction of the guide groove, and the third guide surface 5 is arranged along the width direction of the guide groove. The first guide structure and the second guide structure are arranged simultaneously in order to guide the water in the length direction and the width direction of the guide groove, so as to further expand the spraying range of the first water injection hole 4.
[0039] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As preferred, the spray arm is also provided with a plurality of second water injection holes 8, which are arranged on both sides of the first spray assembly 1. The second water injection hole 8 is a circular hole or an elliptical hole or a long strip-shaped hole. The second water injection hole 8 is a commonly used water injection hole in the prior art. The first spray assembly 1 is arranged at the middle position of the spray arm to expand the spraying range, and the second water injection hole 8 is arranged to improve the spraying distance. The spray arm is provided with the first water injection hole 4 and the second water injection hole 8 at the same time, which not only can expand the spraying range and avoid cleaning dead angles, but also can ensure a long spraying distance and a strong spraying intensity, so as to strongly remove dirt and ensure cleaning effect.
[0040] Please refer to Figures 9-11 The first spray assembly 1 and the second water injection hole 8 are arranged on the first side of the spray arm, and the second side of the spray arm is provided with a third water injection hole 9. When the water flow is sprayed from the third water injection hole 9, a reaction force will be generated on the spray arm. According to Newton's third law, the action of force is mutual, and the reaction force of water injection pushes the spray arm to rotate. In this way, the spray arm can rotate while spraying water, so that the water flow covers all areas inside the dishwasher, making the cleaning more uniform and efficient.
[0041] In addition, the second side of the spray arm is provided with a connecting head 7, which is used to connect the inner water pipe.
[0042] The above has been made a detailed introduction to the present application, the principle and implementation mode of the present application are described in this paper by applying specific examples, the above example is only used to help understand the present application and the core idea. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the principle of the present application, the present application can be improved and modified, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
