Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dishwasher technology, specifically to a cleaning machine for cleaning tableware, fruits and vegetables. Background Technology

[0002] Existing dishwashers typically have a detergent dispenser basket at the bottom of the water cup. During the washing process, this basket collects food residue and prevents it from entering the water system. After prolonged use, fine residue often accumulates on the filter screen of the basket, which cannot be removed by the water flow during the wash cycle. Users need to clean it themselves, otherwise, unpleasant odors may develop, affecting the user experience. Currently, several methods exist for cleaning the detergent dispenser basket: ① Blades crush the residue, which is then discharged from the chamber via a valve pump system; ② A drain pump creates a water flow to clean the basket; ③ An impeller is installed inside the basket, and the water flow during the wash cycle drives the impeller to rotate, preventing residue from adhering to the basket's surface.

[0003] The above-mentioned cleaning method for the slag collection basket has the following problems: ① The blade crushing method has regional limitations and is suitable for regions such as the Americas where meat is consumed frequently. It is not effective for regions such as Asia where meat intake is relatively low. ② The water flow from the drain pump is unstable and has a short duration, resulting in poor cleaning of residue in the dead corners of the slag basket. ③ The impeller inside the slag basket requires a water cup to provide a large space for the basket, which is not conducive to the arrangement and placement of other components.

[0004] Therefore, the current structure of the cleaning machine needs further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a cleaning machine with a simple structure that can rinse the slag collection basket in real time during the return water process, thereby improving the cleaning effect, 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 as follows:

[0007] A cleaning machine includes a water cup, a water pump disposed in the water cup, and a slag collection basket. The water pump has a water inlet at its bottom, and the slag collection basket is disposed beside the water pump. The water cup forms an arc-shaped guide wall around the outer wall of the slag collection basket at the corresponding outer wall. The guide wall is provided with a guide structure that extends laterally and can guide the water flow in its vicinity to flush the side wall of the slag collection basket.

[0008] With the above structure, during the water return process, the water flow on the side of the slag collection basket away from the water pump is guided by the flow guide structure to laterally flush the side wall of the slag collection basket. This causes the fine residues attached to the surface of the slag collection basket to enter the water body under the impact of the water flow and be discharged together after washing. The structure is simple, but it can flush the slag collection basket in real time during the water return process, thereby improving the flushing effect of the slag collection basket.

[0009] Preferably, the flow guiding structure includes multiple flow guiding ribs arranged at intervals. This structure is simple and easy to manufacture, yet it can achieve a good directional flow guiding effect.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the guide ribs are arranged in parallel vertically.

[0011] As another preferred embodiment, the guide ribs located in the lower part of the guide wall are arranged in parallel vertically, and the distance between at least one guide rib located in the upper part of the guide wall and its adjacent guide rib below it gradually decreases along its guiding direction.

[0012] Preferably, the water pump's suction port is positioned at a height corresponding to the filter screen in the middle of the slag collection basket. With this structure, during pump operation, a large amount of water falling from the top into the water cup preferentially enters the slag collection basket. After being filtered by the basket, it is drawn towards the suction port. The suction force from the pump's suction port, in conjunction with the flow guiding structure, directs the water flow between the outer side of the slag collection basket and the flow guiding wall, causing the water to laterally flush across the sidewall of the basket and be drawn to the suction port. This not only facilitates the formation of a directional water flow for flushing the slag collection basket but also improves the return water efficiency.

[0013] Preferably, the water cup has a recessed return water area, which is shaped into a triangular structure with a smooth transition at the corners. The water pump is arranged near the first corner of this triangular structure, the slag collection basket is arranged near the second corner, and the guide wall is formed at the second corner. This structure makes the arrangement of the functional components on the bottom wall of the water cup more rational and compact, reduces the volume of the return water area, thereby saving water consumption. The guide wall, designed with the shape of the return water area, further improves the assembly compactness between the side wall of the return water area and the slag collection basket, enhancing the return water guiding effect.

[0014] Preferably, the return water area includes a water intake area corresponding to the first corner and a slag collection area corresponding to the second corner. The depth of the slag collection area is greater than the depth of the water intake area, and the two areas transition smoothly at their junction. The height of the guide wall matches the depth of the slag collection area. This structure further improves the slag collection effect, return water efficiency, and flushing effect on the sidewalls of the slag collection basket.

[0015] Preferably, a heating zone corresponding to the third corner is formed in the return water area, and a heating element located in this heating zone is provided at the bottom of the water cup. The depth of the heating zone is less than the depth of the water absorption zone, and the two transition smoothly at the junction. This structure not only improves the heating effect and prevents residue from remaining on the heating element, but also facilitates the formation of directional water flow guidance, improves the compatibility between the water body and the flow guiding structure, and thus improves the flushing effect on the side wall of the slag collection basket.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This utility model sets the side wall of the water cup near the slag collection basket as an arc-shaped guide wall, and sets a guide structure on the guide wall that can directionally guide the water flow. During the return water process, the water flow on the side of the slag collection basket away from the water pump is guided by the guide structure to horizontally flush the side wall of the slag collection basket, causing the fine residues attached to the surface of the slag collection basket to enter the water body under the impact of the water flow and be discharged together after washing. The structure is simple, but it can rinse the slag collection basket in real time during the return water process, thereby improving the rinsing effect of the slag collection basket.

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

[0022] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the cleaning machine of this embodiment includes a water cup 1, a water pump 2 and a slag collection basket 3 disposed in the water cup 1. The water pump 2 has a water inlet 21 at the bottom. The slag collection basket 3 is disposed on the side of the water pump 2. The water cup 1 forms an arc-shaped guide wall 11 around the outer wall of the slag collection basket 3 at the corresponding outer wall. The guide wall 11 is provided with a guide structure that extends laterally and can guide the water flow in its vicinity to flush the side wall of the slag collection basket 3.

[0023] With the above structure, during the water return process, the water flow on the side of the slag collection basket 3 away from the water pump 2 is guided by the flow guide structure to horizontally flush the side wall of the slag collection basket 3, causing the fine residues attached to the surface of the slag collection basket 3 to enter the water body under the impact of the water flow and be discharged together after washing. The structure is simple, but it can flush the slag collection basket 3 in real time during the water return process, thereby improving the flushing effect of the slag collection basket 3.

[0024] The flow guiding structure includes multiple vertically spaced flow guiding ribs 12. This structure is simple and easy to manufacture, yet it can achieve a good directional flow guiding effect.

[0025] As a preferred method, each guide rib 12 is arranged in parallel vertically.

[0026] As another preferred embodiment, the guide ribs 12 located in the lower part of the guide wall 11 are arranged in parallel vertically, and the distance between at least one guide rib 12 located in the upper part of the guide wall 11 and its adjacent guide rib 12 below it gradually decreases along its guiding direction.

[0027] The suction port 21 of the water pump 2 is positioned at a height corresponding to the filter screen 31 in the middle of the sludge collection basket 3. With this structure, when the water pump 2 is running, a large amount of water falling from the top into the water cup 1 will preferentially enter the sludge collection basket 3. After being filtered by the sludge collection basket 3, it will be sucked towards the suction port 21. The suction force from the suction port 21 of the water pump 2 will work in conjunction with the flow guiding structure to directionally guide the water between the outer side of the sludge collection basket 3 and the flow guiding wall 11, so that the water here will be horizontally flushed over the side wall of the sludge collection basket 3 and sucked to the suction port 21. This not only helps to form a directional water flow for flushing the sludge collection basket 3, but also helps to improve the return water efficiency.

[0028] The water cup 1 has a recessed water return area 13, which is shaped into a triangular structure with a smooth transition at the corner. The water pump 2 is arranged near the first corner of this triangular structure, and the slag collection basket 3 is arranged near the second corner. The guide wall 11 is formed at the second corner. This structure makes the arrangement of the functional components on the bottom wall of the water cup 1 more reasonable and compact, reduces the volume of the water return area 13, thus saving water consumption. The guide wall 11, designed around the shape of the water return area 13, further improves the compactness of the assembly between the side wall of the water return area 13 and the slag collection basket 3, enhancing the water return flow effect.

[0029] The return water zone 13 includes a water intake zone 131 corresponding to the first corner and a slag collection zone 132 corresponding to the second corner. The depth of the slag collection zone 132 is greater than the depth of the water intake zone 131, and the two zones smoothly transition at their junction. The height of the guide wall 11 matches the depth of the slag collection zone 132. This structure further improves the slag collection effect, return water efficiency, and flushing effect on the sidewalls of the slag collection basket 3.

[0030] A heating zone 133 is formed in the return water zone 13, corresponding to the third corner arrangement. A heating element 4 is provided at the bottom of the water cup 1 in the heating zone 133. The depth of the heating zone 133 is less than the depth of the water absorption zone 131, and the two transition smoothly at the junction. This structure not only helps to improve the heating effect and avoid residue retention on the heating element, but also helps to further guide the directional water flow, improve the coordination between the water body and the flow guiding structure, and thus improve the rinsing effect on the side wall of the slag collection basket 3.

[0031] A drainage component 5 is provided at the bottom of the water cup 1, and the inlet of the drainage component 5 is connected to the bottom of the slag collection area 132.

[0032] In this embodiment, the side wall of the water cup 1 near the slag collection basket 3 is set as an arc-shaped guide wall 11, and a guide structure that can directionally guide the water flow is set on the guide wall 11. During the return water process, the water flow on the side of the slag collection basket 3 away from the water pump 2 is guided by the guide structure to horizontally flush the side wall of the slag collection basket 3, causing the fine residues attached to the surface of the slag collection basket 3 to enter the water body under the impact of the water flow and be discharged together after washing. The structure is simple, but it can rinse the slag collection basket 3 in real time during the return water process, thereby improving the rinsing effect of the slag collection basket 3.
