Description

7.3475 (2022P00084 TR) 1 TARIFF A DISHWASHER Technical Area The invention enables the controlled removal of moisture from the washing tank to the outside of the machine. This relates to a dishwasher that includes a flap system. State of the Art Modern dishwashers include a washing cycle consisting of: cold wash, 5 washes. with the main washing, rinsing and drying steps occurring in sequence The process is completed. Drying, which is one of the main steps of the dishwasher. water droplets remaining on the loads that were washed and cleaned in the step and The aim is to remove the deposits through filtration and evaporation. At the beginning of the drying step, there is a high amount of moisture inside the machine. and the water that evaporates from the loads during the drying step, inside It continuously increases the amount of moisture. This air with high relative humidity is able to trap the evaporating water and the machine moisture to prevent condensation in unwanted areas or on loads It needs to be removed in a controlled manner. 15 in high relative humidity. A drying method based on the principle of removing air from the control volume. The system is included in the state of the art (Natural Dry). In this system, moisture... A chimney is used to expel air. This is the chimney cleaning step. It also causes the moisture that forms during this process to be expelled, thus preventing energy loss. This occurs. Additionally, when the released moisture encounters a cold surface, it condenses and 20 It causes deformation in unwanted areas on the machine or in the kitchen. The humid air expelled from the chimney gets on the user's countertops, walls, and furniture. It will condense and deform over time. Explanation of the Figures Figure 1: Illustration of the flap system, the subject of the invention, in the open position. 25 Figure 2: Representation of the flap system, the subject of the invention, in the semi-open position. Figure 3: Illustration of the flap system, the subject of the invention, in the open position. 7.3475 (2022P00084 TR) 2 Figure 4a: Water drainage opening of the flap system: hole shape.

Water drainage opening Brief Description of the Invention The flap system described in this invention controls the amount of moisture inside the washing chamber. It was developed for conveying the liquid outwards in this way. Thanks to this flap system... Less moisture will be expelled from the cabin, and the wetness and humidity on the machine body will be reduced to 10. This will ensure that this does not happen. In this way, possible insulation deformations and This will prevent component failures. Through the chimney opening on the machine. The continuous release of heat and moisture to the outside will be prevented, thus reducing energy loss. will be reduced. Detailed Description of the Invention 15 The invention describes the drying process of a dishwasher that includes a ducted drying system. a system that is both low energy consuming and low cost in its phase It is explained that the invention involves creating an air infiltration opening through which air can be transmitted. In this system, reinforcement and controlled humid air exhaust are provided. Through the opening, the hot and humid air inside the machine is discharged to the outside. 20 fresh air is supplied into the machine through the air infiltration opening. This happens. The heated air inside the machine rises and exits through the chimney above. Air is expelled through the opening, while fresh air is supplied through the infiltration opening. This reduces the relative humidity inside the machine, resulting in better drying. performance is achieved. 25 7.3475 (2022P00084 TR) 3 The invention consists of a dishwasher with a body and washing machines located on the body. a washing tank in which the process takes place, located on the washing tank, at least one spray element that enables water to be delivered to the kitchen utensils, the housing a device located on top that heats the water sent over the dishes drying rack located near or on the ceiling of the heater and washing tank. When the next step is reached, the humid air provided by the hot water will circulate among the kitchen utensils. It includes at least one chimney that allows the air to be removed. The system and method described in this invention involves the controlled evacuation of humid air from the chimney. A flap system has been developed for partial or complete closure. This flap... The aim of the system is to wash in one complete cycle (cold wash, main wash, rinse and 10 (drying) the chimney opening that is constantly open during the main washing and rinsing step The goal is to prevent moist air from escaping by sealing it completely or partially. This will prevent energy loss. The valve system was developed based on the principle of buoyancy of water. It does not require energy. The damper system is located at the chimney opening (2) (Fan pocket 15 (3) a box placed under the hole) and the density placed inside the box a plate made of a substance smaller than water (4), water inside the box water inlet that provides the inlet and also allows the plate (4) to rise The opening (5) is located at the bottom of the box and allows water to drain from inside the box. It includes a drain opening (6). The flap plate (4) is protected from detergent and temperature by 20 It is manufactured from an unaffected material, preferably foam (styrofoam) even more so. It is preferably polystyrene foam or polyurethane foam. Located at the bottom of the box. opening (6) when the drying stage is reached, the water drains from inside the box (3) It provides. The opening (6) is preferably conical in the form of one or more holes. The holes may be in the form of holes (Figure 4a), or in the form of one or more slits, 25 It can preferably be in the form of a wing (Figure 4b). When the cycle starts, water circulation begins inside the machine (1) and drying This circulation continues until the next step. During the circulation inside, the chimney... We placed the box (3) under the opening (2), through the water inlet opening (5) water starts to fill and the flap plate, which is in its first position inside the box, 30 7.3475 (2022P00084 TR) 4 (4) it starts to rise upwards with the buoyancy of the water. The box (3) with the chimney opening (2) completely filled with water, the front of the chimney opening is completely or partially filled. Washing by bringing the flap plate (4) to its second position for closing In the next step, the humid air inside the machine exits through the chimney opening (2). This will be prevented. The first position of the flap plate (4) will allow water to fill into the box (3). The position before starting is the second position of the flap plate (4) is the box. (3) when the water filling process stops or (4) the plate rises further This is the position it reaches when it is blocked by a stopper. The stopper is the position of the plate. (4) located on at least one side parallel to the direction of ascent and the slot in the box (3) or thanks to the area with a bumpy structure, the plate (4) is prevented from rising 10 The nails can have a different structure, or they can be different. Drying step When passed through, the box has a water drain opening (6) located under the box (3). The water inside drains, the styrofoam goes down again and the front of the chimney opening (2) The box is opened. The water flow rate into the box is greater than the water flow rate out of the box. It must be large. This means that the water drainage opening (6) must be as small as possible. 15 This is achieved by retaining it. This prevents dirt from accumulating and clogging. It will be blocked. The flap box (3) is filled with washing water, but another preferred option is... In practice, water will be drawn directly from the water connection line into the box (3). The box can be continuously supplied with mains water via the line. Box (3) water connection 20 If the water line is directly supplied from the existing line, the flow rate problem will be eliminated. The number of water drainage openings (6) can be increased accordingly and the opening By enlarging it, it prevents clogging caused by dirt that might accumulate inside the box. It can be passed. The damper system is not only used in machines with a chimney-type drying system, but also in fan-type 25 It can also be used in machines. A flap system in front of the fan pocket opening. By installing them in this way, energy loss can also be prevented in machines with fans. In a preferred application of the invention, the flap plate (4) is inside the box (3). Two stoppers are placed on the sides of the plate (4) to prevent it from coming out. is being placed. 30 7.3475 (2022P00084 TR) The edges of the pool can be extended in an umbrella-like structure, allowing for more It is possible to fill it with a lot of water.
