Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliances, and in particular to a water distribution structure and a dishwasher. Background Technology

[0002] In a dishwasher's water distribution valve, the baffle plate needs to withstand the strong impact of water flow. Prolonged exposure to such an environment can easily cause the baffle plate to deform or even break. However, current technology generally lacks a structure to protect the baffle plate. This design deficiency not only significantly shortens the baffle plate's lifespan, leading to frequent replacements that increase user costs and maintenance hassles, but also may cause premature damage to the water distribution valve, resulting in uneven water distribution, reduced cleaning effectiveness, and incomplete removal of stains from dishes. In severe cases, it can even drastically reduce the overall washing performance of the dishwasher, negatively impacting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a water distribution structure and a dishwasher to address the issue of dishwashers not having a protective baffle structure for the water distribution valve body.

[0004] A water distribution structure includes: a base assembly having an inlet, a water distribution chamber, and multiple outlets, the inlet communicating with the water distribution chamber; a motor mounted on the base assembly; a water distribution valve body mounted on the motor and located within the water distribution chamber, the valve body being rotatable relative to the base assembly and controlling one or more outlets to communicate with the water distribution chamber; and a support assembly mounted on the valve body.

[0005] The above-disclosed water distribution structure features a support component securely mounted on the water distribution valve body, providing comprehensive and reliable support. During water flow through the water distribution chamber, impact forces are inevitably generated, and the water distribution valve body, as the core component controlling water flow distribution, directly bears the pressure from these impacts. In traditional structures, the baffles, lacking effective support, are prone to deformation and breakage due to uneven stress after prolonged exposure to impact forces. However, in this water distribution structure, the support component evenly distributes the impact forces borne by the water distribution valve body, altering its stress state and preventing breakage due to excessive local stress. The water distribution valve body, located within the water distribution chamber, is connected to a motor, which precisely controls its operation and guides the water flow direction. Throughout this process, the support component continuously provides stable support to the water distribution valve body, ensuring stable operation even in complex water flow environments. Combined with the stable inlet and outlet structure provided by the base component, the water distribution valve body can flexibly control the connection between different outlets and the water distribution chamber, achieving efficient water distribution. The smooth connection between the cover plate and multiple outlets and piping components ensures the stability of water output. Overall, the strong support of the support components for the water distribution valve body significantly improves the durability and reliability of the water distribution structure, laying a solid foundation for the efficient and stable operation of the entire system.

[0006] In one embodiment, the water distribution valve body includes a water distribution component and a water blocking component. The water distribution component is mounted on the motor, and there are multiple water blocking components arranged circumferentially along the water distribution component to block or open one or more water outlets. A support component is sleeved on the water distribution component and abuts against the multiple water blocking components. The water distribution component has a water outlet that can communicate with one or more water outlets. By arranging multiple water blocking components circumferentially along the water distribution component, a foundation for efficient water distribution is laid. The motor drives the water distribution component to operate, allowing for flexible adjustment of the water outlet's connection to one or more water outlets, achieving precise water distribution and meeting the water flow distribution needs of different scenarios. The support component, sleeved on the water distribution component and abutting against the water blocking components, ensures that the water blocking component can withstand the impact force of the water flow. When water flows into the water distribution chamber at high speed, it generates a strong impact force, which often causes the baffles in traditional structures to deform and break due to their inability to withstand it. However, the support component plays a crucial role in this structure. It evenly distributes the impact force, preventing excessive localized stress on the water distribution and baffle components. On one hand, it ensures stable rotation of the water distribution component, maintaining uninterrupted communication between the water inlet and outlet, and guaranteeing accurate water distribution. On the other hand, it provides reliable support for the baffle component, significantly reducing the risk of damage due to uneven stress. This ensures the dishwasher functions properly and extends its lifespan.

[0007] In one embodiment, the water-blocking assembly includes a first water-blocking plate with a first groove, and the support assembly is inserted into the first groove. By inserting the support assembly into the first groove of the first water-blocking plate, the connection stability between the water-blocking assembly and the support assembly is enhanced. When the dishwasher is running and high-pressure water flows into the water distribution chamber, the first water-blocking plate needs to withstand a large impact force. After the support assembly is inserted into the first groove, it provides reliable support for the first water-blocking plate, effectively dispersing the impact force of the water flow and preventing the first water-blocking plate from deforming or breaking due to uneven stress, thus significantly improving its service life. At the same time, the stable connection makes the first water-blocking plate more precise in controlling the connection between the water outlet and the water distribution chamber. During the water distribution process, even a slight deviation in the position of the first water-blocking plate may affect the water distribution effect. The insertion of the support assembly ensures that it is stably in a reasonable position, ensuring precise connection between the water distribution port and the water outlet, achieving efficient and stable water distribution operation, providing a stable and demanding water flow to each cleaning area of ​​the dishwasher, and improving the cleaning performance of the dishwasher.

[0008] In one embodiment, the support assembly includes a first support and a first fixing member. The first support is sleeved on the water distribution assembly, and there are multiple first fixing members arranged circumferentially along the first support. Each first fixing member has a first support block that engages with the first groove. By sleeved on the water distribution assembly, the multiple first fixing members arranged circumferentially with first support blocks engage with the first groove of the first water baffle, playing multiple key roles in the dishwasher's water distribution structure. The first support provides a stable framework for the entire support assembly, and its sleeved design allows it to be closely connected with other components of the water distribution structure, laying the foundation for subsequent component installation and collaborative operation. The multiple first fixing members distributed circumferentially along the first support enhance the overall strength and stability of the support assembly, enabling it to withstand the external forces caused by water flow impact in the complex working environment of the dishwasher. The first support block on the first fixing member engages with the first groove of the first water baffle, forming a stable connection. When the dishwasher is running, the high-pressure water jet impacts the water distribution chamber. The first support block penetrates into the first groove and firmly fixes the first water baffle, effectively dispersing the impact force of the water jet and preventing the first water baffle from deforming, shifting or breaking due to uneven force, thus greatly improving its durability and reliability.

[0009] In one embodiment, the support assembly includes a first fixing member, the first water baffle is provided with a positioning post, and the first fixing member is provided with a first fixing hole, in which the positioning post is inserted. By engaging the first fixing hole of the first fixing member with the positioning post of the first water baffle, the stability of the connection between the two is significantly enhanced. During dishwasher operation, the water flow in the water distribution chamber is turbulent, and the first water baffle needs to withstand a strong water flow impact force. After the positioning post is inserted into the first fixing hole, a stable limiting structure is formed, which can effectively limit the displacement of the first water baffle under force, so that the first water baffle is firmly fixed in a reasonable position. At the same time, this structure can evenly distribute the water flow impact force to the support assembly, avoiding excessive local stress on the first water baffle, greatly reducing the risk of deformation and breakage due to uneven stress, and extending the service life of the first water baffle. The first water baffle controls the connection between the water outlet and the water distribution chamber, and even a slight deviation in its position will affect the water flow distribution. The tight fit between the positioning post and the first fixing hole ensures that the first water baffle plate can stably perform its water distribution function, and makes the water distribution port and the water outlet precisely connect, providing a stable and suitable water flow for different cleaning areas of the dishwasher, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the dishwasher.

[0010] In one embodiment, a housing is also included, and a buffer member is provided on the support assembly, the buffer member abutting against the housing. By utilizing the buffer member mounted on the support assembly and abutting against the housing, excellent cushioning and shock absorption can be achieved during dishwasher operation. When the dishwasher is running, factors such as the impact of water flow in the water distribution chamber and the vibration of the motor generate complex external forces. The buffer member can effectively absorb these vibrational energies, reducing displacement or loosening of the support assembly and connected components due to vibration, avoiding wear caused by vibration friction between components, and extending the overall service life of the water distribution structure.

[0011] In one embodiment, the plurality of water outlets are designated as a first water outlet, a second water outlet, a third water outlet, a first sidewall water outlet, and a second sidewall water outlet. By dividing the plurality of water outlets into a first water outlet, a second water outlet, a third water outlet, a first sidewall water outlet, and a second sidewall water outlet, the water distribution valve body can be flexibly adjusted to control the on / off state of different water outlets according to actual usage requirements. When only the first outlet is open, assuming the rotation angle of the water distribution valve body is degrees, when the rotation angle is degrees, the first outlet, the second outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the second outlet is open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the second outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the second outlet, the third outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the third outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the third outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the first outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open.

[0012] In one embodiment, the connecting cover includes a cover body and a connecting pipe. The cover body is disposed on the base assembly, and the connecting pipe is disposed on the cover body and extends away from the cover body. The connecting pipe communicates with multiple water outlets, and the pipe assembly is disposed on the connecting pipe and communicates with the connecting pipe. By securely mounting the cover body on the base assembly, a solid foundation is provided for the entire connection structure. The connecting pipe, disposed on the cover body and extending outward, reduces the risk of water pressure leakage, while communicating with multiple water outlets; this design greatly optimizes the water flow path. Water can smoothly flow from the water distribution chamber through the second and third water outlets into the connecting pipe, avoiding the risk of congestion and leakage during water flow transmission, ensuring the efficiency and stability of the water distribution process. The pipe assembly is tightly connected to the connecting pipe, further ensuring the integrity of water flow transmission. The seamless connection between the connecting pipe and the pipe assembly allows water to be accurately delivered to each water-using part, providing sufficient and stable water flow for efficient cleaning of the dishwasher.

[0013] In one embodiment, the piping assembly includes a pipe body, a first outlet, a second outlet, a fixing bracket, and a sealing ring. The pipe body is disposed on and communicates with the connecting cover plate. The portion of the pipe body connected to the connecting cover plate extends towards the connecting cover plate. The pipe body has a first outlet and a second outlet. The first outlet is fitted onto the pipe body and located at the first outlet. The second outlet is disposed on the pipe body and located at the second outlet. Multiple fixing brackets are disposed on the pipe body. The cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the pipe body located around the first outlet and between the multiple fixing brackets is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the remaining portion of the pipe body. The sealing ring is sandwiched between the pipe body and the first outlet. By utilizing the connection method between the pipe body and the connecting cover plate, with the connecting portion extending towards the connecting cover plate, the resistance when water flows into the piping assembly is greatly reduced. Water flows more smoothly from the connecting cover into the pipe body, which not only improves water transmission efficiency but also reduces energy loss caused by poor water flow, ensuring the high efficiency of the water distribution process. The pipe body has a first outlet and a second outlet, which are respectively adapted to install the first water outlet component and the second water outlet component. The first water outlet component tightly covers the first outlet, with a sealing ring sandwiched between them. This design effectively prevents water leakage, ensures the stability and sealing of the water output, avoids water waste, and improves the dishwasher's cleaning effect. The second water outlet component is precisely installed at the second outlet, further improving the water distribution function and meeting the water needs of different cleaning areas of the dishwasher. Multiple fixed brackets are set on the pipe body to serve as backups. At the same time, the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe body is increased around the first outlet and between the multiple fixed brackets. This unique design enhances the structural strength of the pipeline body, enabling it to remain stable and less prone to deformation under the impact of high-pressure water flow. On the other hand, the increased cross-sectional area helps to better buffer and distribute the water flow in this area, optimizing the process of water flow from the pipeline body to the first outlet, and further improving the stability and uniformity of water output.

[0014] A second aspect of this application discloses a water distribution structure, comprising: a base assembly having an inlet, a water distribution chamber, and multiple outlets, the inlet communicating with the water distribution chamber; a motor mounted on the base assembly; a water distribution valve body mounted on the motor and located within the water distribution chamber, the valve body being rotatable relative to the base assembly and controlling one or more outlets to communicate with the water distribution chamber; a support assembly mounted on the valve body; a connecting cover plate mounted on the base assembly and communicating with the multiple outlets; and a pipeline assembly mounted on the connecting cover plate and communicating with the connecting cover plate.

[0015] The second aspect disclosed above discloses a water distribution structure in which a support component is stably mounted on the water distribution valve body, providing comprehensive and reliable support. During the flow of water through the water distribution chamber, impact forces are inevitably generated, and the water distribution valve body, as the core component controlling water flow distribution, directly bears the pressure from these impacts. In traditional structures, the baffles, lacking effective support, are easily deformed and broken due to uneven stress after prolonged exposure to impact forces. However, in this water distribution structure, the support component can evenly distribute the impact forces borne by the water distribution valve body, changing its stress state and preventing the valve body from breaking due to excessive local stress. The water distribution valve body is located in the water distribution chamber and connected to a motor, which precisely controls its operation and rationally guides the water flow direction. During this process, the support component continuously provides stable support to the water distribution valve body, ensuring its stable operation even in complex water flow environments. Combined with the stable water inlet and distribution architecture provided by the base component, the water distribution valve body can flexibly control the connection between different outlets and the water distribution chamber, achieving efficient water distribution. The smooth connection between the cover plate and multiple outlets and piping components ensures the stability of water output. Overall, the strong support of the support components for the water distribution valve body significantly improves the durability and reliability of the water distribution structure, laying a solid foundation for the efficient and stable operation of the entire system.

[0016] In one embodiment, the water distribution valve body includes a water distribution component and a water blocking component. The water distribution component is mounted on the motor, and there are multiple water blocking components arranged circumferentially along the water distribution component. A support component is fitted onto the water distribution component and abuts against the multiple water blocking components. The water distribution component has a water outlet that can communicate with one or more water outlets. By arranging multiple water blocking components circumferentially along the water distribution component, a foundation for efficient water distribution is laid. The motor drives the water distribution component to operate, allowing for flexible adjustment of the water outlet's connection to one or more water outlets, achieving precise water distribution and meeting the water flow distribution needs of different scenarios. The support component, fitted onto the water distribution component and abutting against the water blocking components, ensures that the water blocking component can withstand the impact force of the water flow. When water flows into the water distribution chamber at high speed, it generates a strong impact force, which often causes the baffles in traditional structures to deform and break due to their inability to withstand it. However, in this structure, the support component plays a crucial role, as it can evenly distribute the impact force and prevent excessive local stress on the water distribution component and the water blocking component. On the one hand, it ensures the stable rotation of the water distribution component, preventing interference with the connection between the water inlet and outlet and guaranteeing accurate water distribution; on the other hand, it provides reliable support for the water-blocking component, greatly reducing the risk of damage due to uneven stress. This ensures the dishwasher functions properly and extends its lifespan.

[0017] In one embodiment, the water-blocking assembly includes a second fixing plate and a second water-blocking plate. The second fixing plate is disposed on the water-distributing assembly and the second water-blocking plate is detachably mounted on the second fixing plate. The support assembly is sleeved on the water-distributing assembly, abutting against the second fixing plate. A movable space is formed between the second water-blocking plate and the second fixing plate, and the second water-blocking plate can control the connection or disconnection between the water outlet and the water-distributing chamber. By utilizing the water-blocking assembly composed of the second fixing plate and the second water-blocking plate, which works closely with the support assembly, the water distribution process is greatly optimized. The second fixing plate is securely mounted on the water-distributing assembly, providing a solid support for the second water-blocking plate. The support assembly is sleeved on the water-distributing assembly and abuts tightly against the second fixing plate. When the dishwasher is running and high-pressure water rushes into the water-distributing chamber, the support assembly can effectively disperse the impact force, reduce the risk of excessive local stress on the second fixing plate and the second water-blocking plate, and extend the service life of the components. Initially, the second baffle plate is relaxed against the inner wall of the water distribution chamber when the dishwasher starts operating. As the water pressure gradually increases, the second baffle plate gradually transitions from a relaxed state to a state of close contact with the inner wall of the water distribution chamber, creating space for movement. This adaptive change allows the water distribution device to effectively avoid water leakage without relying on excessively high manufacturing precision. Even if there are certain tolerances in the manufacturing process of the components, the second baffle plate can flexibly adjust under water pressure to fit tightly against the inner wall. This makes the water distribution process more stable and efficient, ensuring that the water flows precisely to the corresponding outlet, perfectly adapting to the stringent water flow requirements of the dishwasher's diverse washing modes. This greatly improves the washing performance of the equipment, providing a solid guarantee for the stable and efficient operation of the dishwasher and comprehensively enhancing the user experience.

[0018] In one embodiment, the second water-blocking plate includes a water-blocking body and a fixing ear. The fixing ear has a groove, and the second fixing plate is inserted into the groove, with a movable space within the groove. By utilizing the insertion and engagement of the second water-blocking plate with the fixing ear through the groove, and reserving the movable space, when the water pressure increases, the second water-blocking plate will slide along the groove and tightly adhere to the inner wall of the water distribution chamber under the water pressure, effectively blocking the water flow and ensuring that the water flow is accurately directed to the target area. This avoids uneven cleaning caused by erratic water flow, greatly improving the accuracy of water distribution and cleaning effect. At the same time, the movable space effectively buffers the impact of the water flow on the second water-blocking plate, preventing it from deforming or being damaged due to instantaneous high pressure. The insertion and engagement of the second fixing plate with the groove provides a stable support foundation for the second water-blocking plate. The two work together to ensure the flexible adjustment of the second water-blocking plate while maintaining the overall stability of the structure and extending the service life of the components. This design achieves dynamic and precise control of water flow and enhances the reliability of the water distribution structure, providing a strong guarantee for the efficient and stable operation of the dishwasher and improving the user experience.

[0019] In one embodiment, the support component includes a second support and a second locking block. The second support is sleeved on the water distribution component. Multiple second locking blocks are arranged circumferentially along the second support. The second fixing plate has locking holes, and the second locking blocks are engaged with the locking holes. By securely sleeved onto the water distribution component, a solid framework is built for the entire support system. The multiple second locking blocks distributed circumferentially along the second support and precisely engaging with the locking holes on the second fixing plate not only enhance the connection stability between the second fixing plate and the support component but also effectively disperse the impact force generated by the high-pressure water flow entering the water distribution chamber during dishwasher operation. When the water flow impacts, the second locking blocks provide strong support to the second fixing plate, preventing displacement and reducing the risk of excessive local stress, thereby extending the service life of the water-blocking component.

[0020] In one embodiment, the second support includes a disc-shaped base and multiple connecting beams arranged circumferentially along the disc-shaped base. Multiple second locking blocks are located at the ends of the connecting beams and engage with the locking holes. By fitting the disc-shaped base onto the water distribution assembly, a stable foundation platform is provided for the entire support assembly. Its large contact area can evenly distribute the pressure from the water distribution assembly and water flow, ensuring the support assembly is securely installed and reducing shaking during operation. The multiple connecting beams distributed circumferentially along the disc-shaped base not only enhance the overall structural strength of the second support but also provide reliable support points for the second locking blocks. When the dishwasher is running and the water flow in the water distribution chamber generates a strong impact force, the connecting beams can effectively transmit and disperse these external forces, avoiding localized stress concentration and improving the durability of the support assembly. The second locking blocks at the ends of the connecting beams engage with the locking holes on the second fixing plate, forming a robust limiting structure. Under the impact of water flow, the second fixing plate can be tightly locked, preventing displacement or loosening and ensuring the second water baffle plate stably performs its water distribution function. Precise fastening ensures the accuracy of each component's position during water distribution, allowing the water inlet and outlet to connect precisely, achieving efficient and stable water distribution. This provides a stable and suitable water flow to each cleaning area of ​​the dishwasher, improving cleaning performance.

[0021] In one embodiment, the second support has a second groove, and the second fixing piece abuts against the second support and is located within the second groove. By embedding the second fixing piece into the second groove of the second support, the two are tightly abutted. This design allows the support component to better fit the water-blocking component, further enhancing the structural stability. Under the impact of water flow, the second support and the second fixing piece work together to distribute the impact force evenly, ensuring the stable operation of the water-dividing component.

[0022] In one embodiment, a housing is also included, and a buffer member is provided on the support assembly, the buffer member abutting against the housing. By utilizing the buffer member mounted on the support assembly and abutting against the housing, excellent cushioning and shock absorption can be achieved during dishwasher operation. When the dishwasher is running, factors such as the impact of water flow in the water distribution chamber and the vibration of the motor generate complex external forces. The buffer member can effectively absorb these vibrational energies, reducing displacement or loosening of the support assembly and connected components due to vibration, avoiding wear caused by vibration friction between components, and extending the overall service life of the water distribution structure.

[0023] In one embodiment, the plurality of water outlets are designated as a first water outlet, a second water outlet, a third water outlet, a first sidewall water outlet, and a second sidewall water outlet. By dividing the plurality of water outlets into a first water outlet, a second water outlet, a third water outlet, a first sidewall water outlet, and a second sidewall water outlet, the water distribution valve body can be flexibly adjusted to control the on / off state of different water outlets according to actual usage requirements. When only the first outlet is open, assuming the rotation angle of the water distribution valve body is degrees, when the rotation angle is degrees, the first outlet, the second outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the second outlet is open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the second outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the second outlet, the third outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the third outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the third outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open. When the rotation angle is degrees, the first outlet, the first side wall outlet, and the second side wall outlet are open.

[0024] In one embodiment, the connecting cover includes a cover body and a connecting pipe. The cover body is disposed on the base assembly, and the connecting pipe is disposed on the cover body and extends away from the cover body. The connecting pipe communicates with multiple water outlets, and the pipe assembly is disposed on the connecting pipe and communicates with the connecting pipe. By securely mounting the cover body on the base assembly, a solid foundation is provided for the entire connection structure. The connecting pipe, disposed on the cover body and extending outward, reduces the risk of water pressure leakage, while communicating with multiple water outlets; this design greatly optimizes the water flow path. Water can smoothly flow from the water distribution chamber through the second and third water outlets into the connecting pipe, avoiding the risk of congestion and leakage during water flow transmission, ensuring the efficiency and stability of the water distribution process. The pipe assembly is tightly connected to the connecting pipe, further ensuring the integrity of water flow transmission. The seamless connection between the connecting pipe and the pipe assembly allows water to be accurately delivered to each water-using part, providing sufficient and stable water flow for efficient cleaning of the dishwasher.

[0025] In one embodiment, the piping assembly includes a pipe body, a first outlet, a second outlet, a fixing bracket, and a sealing ring. The pipe body is disposed on and communicates with the connecting cover plate. The portion of the pipe body connected to the connecting cover plate extends towards the connecting cover plate. The pipe body has a first outlet and a second outlet. The first outlet is fitted onto the pipe body and located at the first outlet. The second outlet is disposed on the pipe body and located at the second outlet. Multiple fixing brackets are disposed on the pipe body. The cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the pipe body located around the first outlet and between the multiple fixing brackets is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the remaining portion of the pipe body.

Multiple fixed brackets are set on the pipe body to serve as backups. At the same time, the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe body is increased around the first outlet and between the multiple fixed brackets. This unique design enhances the structural strength of the pipeline body, enabling it to remain stable and less prone to deformation under the impact of high-pressure water flow. On the other hand, the increased cross-sectional area helps to better buffer and distribute the water flow in this area, optimizing the process of water flow from the pipeline body to the first outlet, and further improving the stability and uniformity of water output.

[0026] A third aspect of this application discloses a dishwasher, which includes: the aforementioned water distribution structure; and a dishwasher body, wherein the water distribution structure is disposed on the dishwasher body.

[0027] The third aspect of this application discloses a dishwasher in which the aforementioned water distribution structure is set on the dishwasher body. Because the water distribution valve body is supported by the supporting components, it is not easy to deform or break due to water flow impact. This not only reduces the number of equipment failures and repairs, but also extends the service life of the dishwasher, saving users operating costs. Attached Figure Description

[0059] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0060] The following describes some embodiments of the water-dividing structure and dishwasher of this utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0061] Example 1

[0062] like Figures 1 to 8 , Figures 18 to 22 As shown, this embodiment discloses a water distribution structure, including: a base assembly 1, which has an inlet 101, a water distribution chamber 102 and multiple outlets, with the inlet 101 communicating with the water distribution chamber 102; a motor 2, which is mounted on the base assembly 1; a water distribution valve body 3, which is mounted on the motor 2 and located in the water distribution chamber 102, and can rotate relative to the base assembly 1 and control one or more outlets to communicate with the water distribution chamber 102; and a support assembly 4, which is mounted on the water distribution valve body 3.

[0063] This application discloses a water distribution structure in which a support component 4 is securely mounted on the water distribution valve body 3, providing comprehensive and reliable support for the valve body 3. During the flow of water through the water distribution chamber 102, impact forces are inevitably generated, and the water distribution valve body 3, as the core component controlling water flow distribution, directly bears the pressure from these impacts. In traditional structures, the baffle plate, lacking effective support, is easily deformed and broken due to uneven stress after prolonged exposure to impact forces. However, in this water distribution structure, the support component 4 can evenly distribute the impact forces borne by the water distribution valve body 3, changing its stress state and preventing the valve body 3 from breaking due to excessive local stress. The water distribution valve body 3 is located in the water distribution chamber 102 and connected to the motor 2, which precisely controls its operation and rationally guides the water flow direction. During this process, the support component 4 continuously provides stable support to the water distribution valve body 3, ensuring its stable operation even in complex water flow environments. Combined with the stable water inlet and distribution architecture provided by the base assembly 1, the water distribution valve body 3 can flexibly control the connection between different outlets and the water distribution chamber 102, achieving efficient water distribution. The smooth connection between the connecting cover plate 6 and multiple outlets and the pipeline assembly 7 ensures the stability of the water flow output. Overall, the strong support of the support assembly 4 for the water distribution valve body 3 significantly improves the durability and reliability of the water distribution structure, laying a solid foundation for the efficient and stable operation of the entire system.

[0064] like Figures 2 to 6As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the water distribution valve body 3 includes a water distribution component 31 and a water blocking component 32. The water distribution component 31 is mounted on the motor 2, and there are multiple water blocking components 32 arranged circumferentially along the water distribution component 31 to block or open one or more of the water outlets. A support component 4 is sleeved on the water distribution component 31 and abuts against the multiple water blocking components 32. The water distribution component 31 has a water distribution port 301, which can communicate with one or more water outlets. By arranging multiple water blocking components 32 circumferentially along the water distribution component 31, a foundation for efficient water distribution is laid. The motor 2 drives the water distribution component 31 to operate, and the connection between the water distribution port 301 and one or more water outlets can be flexibly adjusted to achieve precise water distribution and meet the water flow distribution needs of different scenarios. The support component 4 is sleeved on the water distribution component 31 and abuts against the water blocking components 32, ensuring that the water blocking components 32 can withstand the impact force of the water flow. When water rushes into the water distribution chamber 102 at high speed, it generates a strong impact force, which often causes the baffles in traditional structures to deform and break due to their inability to withstand it. However, in this structure, the support component 4 plays a crucial role. It can evenly distribute the impact force, preventing excessive local stress on the water distribution component 31 and the water blocking component 32. On the one hand, it ensures the stable rotation of the water distribution component 31, ensuring uninterrupted communication between the water outlet 301 and the water outlet, thus guaranteeing accurate water distribution. On the other hand, it provides reliable support for the water blocking component 32. When the water blocking component 32 blocks the water outlet, the support component 4 greatly reduces the risk of damage to the water blocking component 32 due to uneven stress. This ensures the dishwasher can be used normally and extends its service life.

[0065] like Figures 3 to 8 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the water-blocking component 3 includes a first water-blocking plate 31, the first water-blocking plate 31 is provided with a first groove 302, and the support component 4 is inserted into the first groove 302. By inserting the support component 4 into the first groove 302 of the first water-blocking plate 31, the connection stability between the water-blocking component 3 and the support component 4 is strengthened. When the dishwasher is running and high-pressure water flows into the water distribution chamber 102, the first water-blocking plate 321 needs to withstand a large impact force. After the support component 4 is inserted into the first groove 302, it provides reliable support for the first water-blocking plate 321, effectively disperses the impact force of the water flow, and avoids the first water-blocking plate 321 from deforming or breaking due to uneven force, significantly improving its service life. At the same time, the stable connection makes the first water-blocking plate 321 more precise in controlling the connection between the water outlet and the water distribution chamber 102. During the water distribution process, even a slight offset in the position of the first water baffle 321 may affect the water distribution effect. The insertion of the support component 4 ensures that it is stably in a reasonable position, ensuring that the water outlet 301 is precisely connected with multiple water outlets, achieving efficient and stable water distribution operation, providing a stable and demand-compliant water flow to each cleaning area of ​​the dishwasher, and improving the cleaning performance of the dishwasher.

[0066] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the support component 4 includes a first support 41 and a first fixing member 42. The first support 41 is sleeved on the water distribution component 31, and there are multiple first fixing members 42 arranged circumferentially along the first support 41; the first fixing member 42 is provided with a first support block 43 that is inserted into the first groove 302. By sleeved on the water distribution component 31, multiple first fixing members 42 arranged circumferentially and equipped with first support blocks 43 are inserted into the first groove 302 of the first water baffle 321, playing multiple key roles in the water distribution structure of the dishwasher. The first support 41 provides a stable frame for the entire support component 4, and its design of being sleeved on the water distribution component 31 allows it to be closely connected with other components of the water distribution structure, laying the foundation for subsequent component installation and collaborative work. Multiple first fixing members 42 are distributed circumferentially along the first support 41, enhancing the overall strength and stability of the support assembly 4, enabling it to withstand the external force caused by water flow impact in the complex working environment of the dishwasher. The first support block 43 on the first fixing member 42 is inserted into the first groove 302 of the first water baffle 321 to form a stable connection. When the dishwasher is running and the high-pressure water flow impacts the water distribution chamber 102, the first support block 43 penetrates into the first groove 302, firmly fixing the first water baffle 321, effectively dispersing the water flow impact force, and preventing the first water baffle 321 from deforming, shifting, or breaking due to uneven force, greatly improving its durability and reliability.

[0067] like Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the support component 4 includes a first fixing member 42, the first water baffle 321 is provided with a positioning post 3211, the first fixing member 42 is provided with a first fixing hole 401, and the positioning post 3211 is inserted into the first fixing hole 401. By connecting the first fixing hole 401 of the first fixing member 42 with the positioning post 3211 of the first water baffle 321, the stability of the connection between the two is significantly enhanced. When the dishwasher is running, the water flow in the water distribution chamber 102 is rapid, and the first water baffle 321 needs to withstand the strong impact force of the water flow. After the positioning post 3211 is inserted into the first fixing hole 401, a stable limiting structure is formed, which can effectively limit the displacement of the first water baffle 321 when subjected to force, so that the first water baffle 321 is firmly fixed in a reasonable position. Meanwhile, this structure can evenly distribute the water flow impact force onto the support component 4, avoiding excessive local stress on the first water baffle 321, greatly reducing the risk of deformation and breakage due to uneven stress, and extending the service life of the first water baffle 321. The first water baffle 321 controls the connection between the water outlet and the water distribution chamber 102, and even a slight deviation in its position will affect the water flow distribution. The tight fit between the positioning post 3211 and the first fixing hole 401 ensures that the first water baffle 321 stably performs its water distribution function, allowing the water distribution chamber 102 to accurately connect with multiple water outlets, providing a stable and suitable water flow for different cleaning areas of the dishwasher, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the dishwasher.

[0068] like Figure 4 and Figure 17 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes a housing 5, and a buffer 46 is provided on the support assembly 4, with the buffer 46 abutting against the housing 5. By utilizing the buffer 46 installed on the support assembly 4 and abutting against the housing 5, it can play an excellent role in buffering and shock absorption during the operation of the dishwasher. When the dishwasher is running, the impact of water flow in the water distribution chamber 102, the vibration of the motor, and other factors will generate complex external forces. The buffer 46 can effectively absorb these vibration energies, reduce the displacement or loosening of the support assembly 4 and connected components due to vibration, avoid wear caused by vibration friction between components, and extend the overall service life of the water distribution structure.

[0069] like Figures 2 to 5As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the multiple water outlets are a first water outlet 103, a second water outlet 104, a third water outlet 105, a first sidewall water outlet 106, and a second sidewall water outlet 107. By dividing the multiple water outlets into the first water outlet 103, the second water outlet 104, the third water outlet 105, the first sidewall water outlet 106, and the second sidewall water outlet 107, the water distribution valve body 3 can be flexibly adjusted to control the on / off state of different water outlets according to actual usage requirements. When only the first outlet 103 is open, assuming the rotation angle of the water distribution valve body 3 is 0 degrees, when the rotation angle is 50 degrees, the first outlet 103, the second outlet 104, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are open. When the rotation angle is 99 degrees, the second outlet 104 is open. When the rotation angle is 129 degrees, the second outlet 104, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are open. When the rotation angle is 169 degrees, the first... The second outlet 104, the third outlet 105, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened. When the rotation angle is 209 degrees, the third outlet 105 and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened. When the rotation angle is 237 degrees, the third outlet 105, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened. When the rotation angle is 330 degrees, the first outlet 103, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened.

[0070] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 18 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the connecting cover plate 6 includes a cover plate body 61 and a connecting pipe 62. The cover plate body 61 is disposed on the base assembly 1, and the connecting pipe 62 is disposed on the cover plate body 61 and extends in a direction away from the cover plate body 61. The connecting pipe 62 communicates with multiple water outlets, and the pipe assembly 7 is disposed on the connecting pipe 62 and communicates with the connecting pipe 62. By firmly installing the cover plate body 61 on the base assembly 1, a solid foundation is provided for the entire connection structure. The connecting pipe 62 is disposed on the cover plate body 61 and extends outward, reducing the risk of water pressure leakage. At the same time, it communicates with multiple water outlets, and this design greatly optimizes the water flow transmission path. Water can flow smoothly from the water distribution chamber 102 through the second water outlet 104 and the third water outlet 105 into the connecting pipe, avoiding the risk of congestion and leakage during water flow transmission, and ensuring the efficiency and stability of the water distribution process. The pipe assembly 7 is tightly connected to the connecting pipe 62, further ensuring the integrity of water flow transmission. The seamless connection between the connecting pipe 62 and the pipe assembly 7 allows water to be precisely delivered to each water-using part, providing a sufficient and stable water flow for the dishwasher's efficient cleaning.

[0071] like Figures 18 to 22 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the pipeline assembly 7 includes a pipeline body 71, a first water outlet 72, a second water outlet 73, a fixing bracket 74, and a sealing ring 75. The pipeline body 71 is disposed on and communicates with the connecting cover plate 6. The portion of the pipeline body 71 connected to the connecting cover plate 6 extends toward the direction close to the connecting cover plate 6. The pipeline body 71 is provided with a first outlet 701 and a second outlet 702. The first water outlet 72 is adapted to cover the pipeline body 71 and is located at the first outlet 701. The second water outlet 73 is disposed on the pipeline body 71 and is located at the second outlet 702. There are multiple fixing brackets 74. Multiple fixing brackets 74 are disposed on the pipeline body 71. The cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the pipeline body 71 located around the first outlet 701 and between the multiple fixing brackets 74 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the rest of the pipeline body 71. The sealing ring 75 is sandwiched between the pipeline body 71 and the first water outlet 72. By utilizing the connection method between the pipe body 71 and the connecting cover plate 6, the connection portion extends towards the connecting cover plate 6, greatly reducing the resistance when water flows into the pipe assembly 7. Water can flow more smoothly from the connecting cover plate 6 into the pipe body 71, which not only improves water transmission efficiency but also reduces energy loss caused by poor water flow, ensuring the high efficiency of the water distribution process. The pipe body 71 has a first outlet 701 and a second outlet 702, which are respectively fitted with a first water outlet component 72 and a second water outlet component 73. The first water outlet component 72 tightly covers the first outlet 701, with a sealing ring 75 sandwiched between them. This design effectively prevents water leakage, ensures the stability and sealing of the water output, avoids water waste, and improves the dishwasher's cleaning effect. The second water outlet component 73 is precisely installed at the second outlet 702, further improving the water distribution function and meeting the water needs of different cleaning areas of the dishwasher. Multiple fixed supports 74 are installed on the pipe body 71 to serve as backups. Meanwhile, the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe body portion surrounding the first outlet 701 and between the multiple fixed supports 74 is increased. This unique design enhances the structural strength of the pipe body 71, ensuring its stability and preventing deformation under high-pressure water flow. Furthermore, the increased cross-sectional area helps to better buffer and distribute water flow in this area, optimizing the flow from the pipe body 71 to the first outlet 72 and further improving the stability and uniformity of the water output.

[0072] Example 2

[0073] like Figures 1 to 5 , Figures 9 to 22As shown, this embodiment discloses a water distribution structure, including: a base assembly 1, which has an inlet 101, a water distribution chamber 102 and multiple outlets, with the inlet 101 communicating with the water distribution chamber 102; a motor 2, which is mounted on the base assembly 1; a water distribution valve body 3, which is mounted on the motor 2 and located in the water distribution chamber 102, and can rotate relative to the base assembly 1 and control one or more outlets to communicate with the water distribution chamber 102; and a support assembly 4, which is mounted on the water distribution valve body 3.

[0074] The second aspect of this application discloses a water distribution structure in which a support component 4 is securely mounted on the water distribution valve body 3, providing comprehensive and reliable support for the water distribution valve body 3. During the flow of water through the water distribution chamber 102, impact forces are inevitably generated, and the water distribution valve body 3, as the core component controlling water flow distribution, directly bears the pressure brought by the water flow impact. In traditional structures, the baffle plate, lacking effective support, is easily deformed and broken due to uneven stress after prolonged exposure to impact forces. However, in this water distribution structure, the support component 4 can evenly distribute the impact force borne by the water distribution valve body 3, changing its stress state and preventing the water distribution valve body 3 from facing the risk of breakage due to excessive local stress. The water distribution valve body 3 is located in the water distribution chamber 102 and connected to the motor 2, which precisely controls its operation and rationally guides the water flow direction. During this process, the support component 4 continuously provides stable support for the water distribution valve body 3, ensuring its stable operation even in complex water flow environments. Combined with the stable water inlet and distribution architecture provided by the base assembly 1, the water distribution valve body 3 can flexibly control the connection between different outlets and the water distribution chamber 102, achieving efficient water distribution. The smooth connection between the connecting cover plate 6 and multiple outlets and the pipeline assembly 7 ensures the stability of the water flow output. Overall, the strong support of the support assembly 4 for the water distribution valve body 3 significantly improves the durability and reliability of the water distribution structure, laying a solid foundation for the efficient and stable operation of the entire system.

[0075] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 9As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the water distribution valve body 3 includes a water distribution component 31 and a water blocking component 32. The water distribution component 31 is mounted on the motor 2, and there are multiple water blocking components 32 arranged circumferentially along the water distribution component 31. A support component 4 is fitted onto the water distribution component 31 and abuts against the multiple water blocking components 32. The water distribution component 31 has a water outlet 301, which can communicate with one or more water outlets. By arranging multiple water blocking components 32 circumferentially along the water distribution component 31, a foundation for efficient water distribution is laid. The motor 2 drives the water distribution component 31 to operate, and the connection between the water outlet 301 and one or more water outlets can be flexibly adjusted to achieve precise water distribution and meet the water flow distribution needs of different scenarios. The support component 4 is fitted onto the water distribution component 31 and abuts against the water blocking components 32, ensuring that the water blocking components 32 can withstand the impact force of the water flow. When water rushes into the water distribution chamber 102 at high speed, it generates a strong impact force, which often causes the baffles in traditional structures to deform and break due to their inability to withstand it. However, in this structure, the support component 4 plays a crucial role. It can evenly distribute the impact force, preventing excessive local stress on the water distribution component 31 and the water baffle component 32. On the one hand, it ensures the stable rotation of the water distribution component 31, ensuring uninterrupted communication between the water outlet 301 and the water outlet, and guaranteeing accurate water distribution. On the other hand, it provides reliable support for the water baffle component 32, greatly reducing the risk of damage due to uneven stress. This ensures the dishwasher can be used normally and extends its service life.

[0076] like Figure 4 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the water-blocking component 32 includes a second fixing plate 322 and a second water-blocking plate 323. The second fixing plate 322 is disposed on the water-dividing component 31, and the second water-blocking plate 323 is detachably disposed on the second fixing plate 322. The support component 4 is sleeved on the water-dividing component 31, and the support component 4 abuts against the second fixing plate 322. An active space 303 is formed between the second water-blocking plate 323 and the second fixing plate 322. The second water-blocking plate 323 controls the connection or disconnection between the water outlet and the water-dividing chamber 102. By utilizing the water-blocking component 32 composed of the second fixing plate 322 and the second water-blocking plate 323, which closely cooperates with the support component 4, the water-dividing process is greatly optimized. The second fixing plate 322 is stably installed on the water-dividing component 31, providing a solid support for the second water-blocking plate 323. The support component 4 is fitted onto the water distribution component 31 and tightly abuts against the second fixing plate 322. When the dishwasher is running and high-pressure water rushes into the water distribution chamber 102, the support component 4 can effectively disperse the impact force, reducing the risk of excessive local stress on the second fixing plate 322 and the second water baffle 323, and extending the service life of the components. At the initial stage of dishwasher operation, the second water baffle 323 is in a relaxed state against the inner wall of the water distribution chamber 102. As the water pressure gradually increases, under the action of the water pressure, the second water baffle 323 gradually changes from a relaxed state to a state of close contact with the inner wall of the water distribution chamber 102, forming a movable space 303. This adaptive change allows the water distribution device to effectively avoid water leakage without relying on excessively high manufacturing precision. Because even if there are certain tolerances in the manufacturing process, the second water baffle 323 can flexibly adjust under water pressure and tightly fit the inner wall. In this way, the water distribution process is more stable and efficient, ensuring that the water flow is accurately directed to the corresponding outlet. This perfectly matches the stringent requirements of the dishwasher's diverse cleaning modes for water distribution, greatly improving the washing performance of the equipment and providing a solid guarantee for the stable and efficient operation of the dishwasher, thus comprehensively enhancing the user experience.

[0077] like Figures 10 to 13As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the second water-blocking plate 323 includes a water-blocking body 3231 and a fixing ear 3232. The fixing ear 3232 is provided with a sliding groove 304, and the second fixing plate 322 is inserted into the sliding groove 304, and the second fixing plate 322 has a movable space 303 within the sliding groove 304. By utilizing the second water-blocking plate 323 to engage with the second fixing plate 322 through the sliding groove 304 of the fixing ear 3231, and reserving the movable space 303, when the water pressure increases, the second water-blocking plate 323 will slide in the movable space 303 under the action of water pressure and closely adhere to the inner wall of the water distribution chamber 102, effectively blocking the water flow and ensuring that the water flow accurately flows to the target area, avoiding uneven cleaning caused by the erratic flow of water, and greatly improving the accuracy of water distribution and cleaning effect. At the same time, the existence of the movable space 303 effectively buffers the impact force of the water flow on the second water-blocking plate 323, preventing it from being deformed or damaged due to instantaneous high pressure. The insertion and engagement of the second fixing plate 322 with the sliding groove 304 provides a stable support foundation for the second water baffle 322. Their synergistic action ensures flexible adjustment of the second water baffle 323 while maintaining overall structural stability and extending component lifespan. This design achieves dynamic and precise water flow control and enhances the reliability of the water distribution structure, providing strong support for the efficient and stable operation of the dishwasher and improving the user experience.

[0078] like Figure 10 and Figure 14 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the support component 4 includes a second support 44 and a second locking block 45, the second support 44 being sleeved on the water distribution component 31; the number of second locking blocks 45 is multiple, and the multiple second locking blocks 45 are arranged circumferentially along the second support 44, the second fixing plate 322 is provided with locking holes 305, and the second locking blocks 45 are fastened into the locking holes 305. By securely sleeved the second support 44 on the water distribution component 31, a solid framework is built for the entire support system. The multiple second locking blocks 45 are distributed circumferentially along the second support 44 and precisely cooperate with the locking holes 305 on the second fixing plate 322, which not only enhances the connection stability between the second fixing plate 322 and the support component 4, but also effectively disperses the impact force generated by the high-pressure water flow entering the water distribution chamber during dishwasher operation. When water flows, the second locking block 45 provides strong support to the second fixing plate 322, preventing the second fixing plate 322 from shifting, reducing the risk of excessive local stress, and thus extending the service life of the water-blocking component 32.

[0079] like Figure 14 and Figure 15As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the second support includes a disc-shaped base 441 and connecting beams 442. Multiple connecting beams 442 are arranged circumferentially along the disc-shaped base 441. Multiple second locking blocks 45 are located at the ends of the connecting beams 442 and engage with locking holes 305. By fitting the disc-shaped base 441 onto the water distribution assembly 31, a stable foundation platform is provided for the entire support assembly 4. Its large contact area can evenly distribute the pressure from the water distribution assembly 31 and the water flow, ensuring the support assembly 4 is securely installed and reducing shaking during operation. The multiple connecting beams 442 distributed circumferentially along the disc-shaped base 441 not only enhance the overall structural strength of the second support 44 but also provide reliable support points for the second locking blocks 45. When the dishwasher is running and the water flow in the water distribution chamber 102 generates a strong impact force, the connecting beams 442 can effectively transmit and disperse these external forces, avoiding localized stress concentration and improving the durability of the support assembly 4. The second locking block 45 at the end of the connecting beam 442 engages with the locking hole 305 on the second fixing plate 322, forming a robust limiting structure. Under the impact of water flow, it can tightly lock the second fixing plate 322, preventing it from shifting or loosening, and ensuring that the second water baffle 322 stably performs its water-distributing function. The precise engagement also ensures the accuracy of the position of each component during water distribution, allowing the water distribution chamber 102 to precisely align with multiple water outlets, achieving efficient and stable water distribution operation, providing a stable and demanding water flow to each cleaning area of ​​the dishwasher, and improving the cleaning effect.

[0080] like Figure 10 and Figure 14 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the second support 44 is provided with a second groove 402, and the second fixing piece 322 abuts against the second support 44 and is located in the second groove 402. By embedding the second fixing piece 322 into the second groove 402 of the second support 44, the two abut tightly. This design allows the support component 4 to better fit the water-blocking component 32, further improving the stability of the structure. Under the impact of water flow, the second support 44 and the second fixing piece 322 work together to distribute the impact force evenly, ensuring the stable operation of the water-dividing component.

[0081] like Figure 14 and Figure 17As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes a housing 5, and a buffer 46 is provided on the support assembly 4, with the buffer 46 abutting against the housing 5. By utilizing the buffer 46 installed on the support assembly 4 and abutting against the housing 5, it can play an excellent role in buffering and shock absorption during the operation of the dishwasher. When the dishwasher is running, the impact of water flow in the water distribution chamber 102, the vibration of the motor, and other factors will generate complex external forces. The buffer 46 can effectively absorb these vibration energies, reduce the displacement or loosening of the support assembly and connected parts caused by vibration, avoid wear caused by vibration friction between parts, and extend the overall service life of the water distribution structure.

[0082] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the multiple water outlets are a first water outlet 103, a second water outlet 104, a third water outlet 105, a first sidewall water outlet 106, and a second sidewall water outlet 107. By dividing the multiple water outlets into the first water outlet 103, the second water outlet 104, the third water outlet 105, the first sidewall water outlet 106, and the second sidewall water outlet 107, the water distribution valve body 3 can be flexibly adjusted to control the on / off state of different water outlets according to actual usage requirements. When only the first outlet 103 is open, assuming the rotation angle of the water distribution valve body 3 is 0 degrees, when the rotation angle is 50 degrees, the first outlet 103, the second outlet 104, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are open. When the rotation angle is 99 degrees, the second outlet 104 is open. When the rotation angle is 129 degrees, the second outlet 104, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are open. When the rotation angle is 169 degrees, the first... The second outlet 104, the third outlet 105, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened. When the rotation angle is 209 degrees, the third outlet 105 and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened. When the rotation angle is 237 degrees, the third outlet 105, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened. When the rotation angle is 330 degrees, the first outlet 103, the first side wall outlet 106, and the second side wall outlet 107 are opened.

[0083] like Figure 2 and Figure 18As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the connecting cover plate 6 includes a cover plate body 61 and a connecting pipe 62. The cover plate body 61 is disposed on the base assembly 1, and the connecting pipe 62 is disposed on the cover plate body 61 and extends in a direction away from the cover plate body 61. The connecting pipe 62 communicates with multiple water outlets, and the pipe assembly 7 is disposed on the connecting pipe 62 and communicates with the connecting pipe 62. By firmly installing the cover plate body 61 on the base assembly 1, a solid foundation is provided for the entire connection structure. The connecting pipe 62 is disposed on the cover plate body 61 and extends outward, reducing the risk of water pressure leakage. At the same time, it communicates with multiple water outlets, and this design greatly optimizes the water flow transmission path. Water can flow smoothly from the water distribution chamber 102 through the second water outlet 104 and the third water outlet 105 into the connecting pipe, avoiding the risk of congestion and leakage during water flow transmission, and ensuring the efficiency and stability of the water distribution process. The pipe assembly 7 is tightly connected to the connecting pipe 62, further ensuring the integrity of water flow transmission. The seamless connection between the connecting pipe 62 and the pipe assembly 7 allows water to be precisely delivered to each water-using part, providing a sufficient and stable water flow for the dishwasher's efficient cleaning.

[0084] like Figures 18 to 22As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the pipeline assembly 7 includes a pipeline body 71, a first water outlet 72, a second water outlet 73, a fixing bracket 74, and a sealing ring 75. The pipeline body 71 is disposed on and communicates with the connecting cover plate 6. The portion of the pipeline body 71 connected to the connecting cover plate 6 extends toward the direction close to the connecting cover plate 6. The pipeline body 71 is provided with a first outlet 701 and a second outlet 702. The first water outlet 72 is adapted to cover the pipeline body 71 and is located at the first outlet 701. The second water outlet 73 is disposed on the pipeline body 71 and is located at the second outlet 702. There are multiple fixing brackets 74. Multiple fixing brackets 74 are disposed on the pipeline body 71. The cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the pipeline body 71 located around the first outlet 701 and between the multiple fixing brackets 74 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the rest of the pipeline body 71. The sealing ring 75 is sandwiched between the pipeline body 71 and the first water outlet 72. By utilizing the connection method between the pipe body 71 and the connecting cover plate 6, the connection portion extends towards the connecting cover plate 6, greatly reducing the resistance when water flows into the pipe assembly 7. Water can flow more smoothly from the connecting cover plate 6 into the pipe body 71, which not only improves water transmission efficiency but also reduces energy loss caused by poor water flow, ensuring the high efficiency of the water distribution process. The pipe body 71 has a first outlet 701 and a second outlet 702, which are respectively fitted with a first water outlet component 72 and a second water outlet component 73. The first water outlet component 72 tightly covers the first outlet 701, with a sealing ring 75 sandwiched between them. This design effectively prevents water leakage, ensures the stability and sealing of the water output, avoids water waste, and improves the dishwasher's cleaning effect. The second water outlet component 73 is precisely installed at the second outlet 702, further improving the water distribution function and meeting the water needs of different cleaning areas of the dishwasher. Multiple fixed supports 74 are installed on the pipe body 71 to serve as backups. Meanwhile, the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe body portion surrounding the first outlet 701 and between the multiple fixed supports 74 is increased. This unique design enhances the structural strength of the pipe body 71, ensuring its stability and preventing deformation under high-pressure water flow. Furthermore, the increased cross-sectional area helps to better buffer and distribute water flow in this area, optimizing the flow from the pipe body 71 to the first outlet 72 and further improving the stability and uniformity of the water output.
