Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dishwasher technology, and in particular to a drying device for a dishwasher solid detergent dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] Some dishwashers on the market have a dispenser on the door for adding solid detergent into the inner drum. The dispenser has a feeding port and a discharge port at the top and bottom, respectively, and contains a conveying channel and a discharge channel. The feeding port, conveying channel, discharge channel, and discharge port are connected in sequence. Users can put solid detergent into the dispenser through the feeding port. The solid detergent is stored in the conveying channel. A pushing device pushes the solid detergent in the conveying channel to the discharge channel, and then the solid detergent falls to the discharge port and into the dishwasher's inner drum. Since the discharge channel is connected to the inner drum, moisture from the inner drum will enter the discharge channel, resulting in a large amount of moisture in the discharge channel. Some of this moisture will reach the solid detergent in the conveying channel, which can easily cause the solid detergent to dissolve.

[0003] Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] See Figures 1-5 The drying device of the solid detergent dispenser of this dishwasher includes a discharge channel 2 installed in the main body 1 of the dispenser and a fan 3 installed at the upper end of the discharge channel 2. The lower end of the discharge channel 2 is provided with a discharge port 4. The air outlet 5 of the fan 3, the discharge channel 2 and the discharge port 4 are connected in sequence. The discharge port 4 is connected to the inner tub of the dishwasher. The air outlet 5 of the fan 3 generates air that blows towards the discharge channel 2 and reaches the discharge port 4, which can blow the moisture on the discharge channel 2 out of the dispenser through the discharge port 4 and the moisture returns to the inner tub.

[0023] The air outlet 5 of the blower 3 is directly opposite the discharge channel 2 and the discharge port 4. The air outlet 5 of the blower 3, the discharge channel 2 and the discharge port 4 are on the same straight line, so that the air generated by the air outlet 5 of the blower 3 can blow directly into the discharge channel 2, thereby quickly expelling the moisture on the discharge channel 2 and improving the drying effect.

[0024] An opening 6 is provided at the upper end of the discharge channel 2, and the air outlet 5 of the blower 3 is located on the opening 6, which can ensure that the air generated by the air outlet 5 of the blower 3 can basically enter the discharge channel 2, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0025] The side of the feeder body 1 is provided with an air inlet 7 that connects to the outside. The air inlet 16 of the blower 3 is connected to the air inlet 7. The outside air reaches the air inlet 16 of the blower 3 through the air inlet 7, and then is blown out to the discharge channel 2 through the air outlet 5 of the blower 3.

[0026] The feeder body 1 is provided with an air duct cavity 8, the blower 3 is installed on the air duct cavity 8, the air inlet 7 is located on one side of the air duct cavity 8, and the air inlet 7 is connected to the air duct cavity 8.

[0027] The upper end of the discharge channel 2 is provided with a limiting part 9, which is located on both sides of the opening 6. The two sides of the air outlet 5 are respectively provided with limiting mating parts 10. The limiting mating parts 10 abut against the limiting part 9, that is, the limiting mating parts 10 are supported on the limiting part 9, so that the air outlet 5 and the discharge channel 2 are sealed, ensuring that the air blown out of the air outlet 5 can only reach the discharge channel 2 and will not leak to other places.

[0028] A positioning post 11 is provided on the air duct cavity 8, and a positioning hole 12 is provided on the fan 3. The positioning post 11 is inserted into the positioning hole 12, thereby positioning the fan 3 on the air duct cavity 8, ensuring that the limiting mating part 10 can abut against the limiting part 9.

[0029] The main body 1 of the feeder is equipped with an electric control board 13, which is electrically connected to the fan 3 and can control the start and stop of the fan 3.

[0030] The main body 1 of the feeder is provided with a conveying channel 15 for conveying solid detergent 14. The solid detergent 14 is arranged vertically on the conveying channel 15, and the conveying channel 15 is connected to the discharge channel 2.

[0031] A pushing device 16 is provided between the conveying channel 15 and the discharge channel 2. The pushing device 16 pushes the solid detergent 14 on the conveying channel 15 laterally to the discharge channel 2.

[0032] The feeder body 1 includes a first housing 17 and a second housing 18 that cover each other. A conveying channel 15, a discharge channel 2 and an air duct cavity 8 are formed between the first housing 17 and the second housing 18. An air inlet 7 is provided on the second housing 18.

[0033] The feeder includes a feeding port 19 and a conveying channel 20 located above the feeder body 1. The upper end of the conveying channel 20 is connected to the feeding port 19, and the lower end of the conveying channel 20 is connected to the feeder body 1. The feeding port 19, the conveying channel 20, and the conveying channel 15 are connected in sequence. After the solid detergent 14 is put into the feeder through the feeding port 19, the solid detergent 14 is stored on the conveying channel 20 and the conveying channel 15, and the solid detergent 14 is arranged vertically. When the pushing device 16 pushes the solid detergent 14 located at the bottom of the conveying channel 15 to the discharge channel 2, the solid detergent 14 will fall downwards. The solid detergent 14 falls through the discharge channel 2 to the discharge port 4 and then into the inner drum of the dishwasher.

[0034] The feeder body 1 is installed on the door 21 of the dishwasher.
