[0003] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular relates to a washing sink and a tableware processing system. Background Art

[0004] In daily life, food ingredients often contain bacteria, viruses, pesticides, and hormone residues. If left untreated, these residues can accumulate over time and affect both health and children's growth and development. Therefore, food ingredients must be cleaned and disinfected before use.

[0005] In related technologies, an electrolysis device is integrated into a sink. This device electrolyzes water to produce electrolyzed water, which is then used to disinfect food. However, due to the low sterilization efficiency of electrolyzed water, the food processing time is prolonged. Furthermore, after prolonged use, the surface of the electrolysis device is prone to scaling and deposits, which reduces the service life of the electrodes. Therefore, the electrolysis device must be cleaned regularly. However, since the electrolysis device is fixed to the sink, cleaning it is very inconvenient.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0067] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0068] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present disclosure are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between various components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0069] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "connect," "fix," and the like should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fix" can refer to fixed or detachable connection, or integration; mechanical or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this disclosure based on specific circumstances.

[0070] In addition, in the present disclosure, descriptions such as "first" and "second" are for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present disclosure.

[0071] In daily life, food ingredients often contain bacteria, viruses, pesticides, and hormone residues. If left untreated, these residues can accumulate over time and affect both health and children's growth and development. Therefore, food ingredients must be cleaned and disinfected before use.

[0072] In related technologies, an electrolysis device is integrated into a water tank. This device electrolyzes water to form electrolyzed water, which is then used to disinfect food ingredients. The principle of electrolysis water disinfection is as follows: after electricity is applied to the water, it is electrolyzed through an electrolysis reaction module to produce a large number of active hydroxyl radicals. These hydroxyl radicals break the covalent bonds of organic compounds such as pesticides and destroy bacterial cell walls, rendering them inactive and purifying the pesticides or bacteria. After purification, compounds such as pesticide hormones are degraded into CO2, water, and inorganic salts, which are harmless to humans and the environment. The bacteria are then inactivated and no longer infectious.

[0073] However, the low sterilization efficiency of electrolyzed water slows down food cleaning. Furthermore, after prolonged use, scale and deposits easily form on the electrode surfaces of the electrolysis device, shortening its lifespan. Especially in environments with poor water quality, scale can form in about a month, leading to corrosion and shortening the lifespan of the electrolysis device's electrodes. Therefore, the electrolysis device must be cleaned regularly. However, since it is fixed to the sink, cleaning it is inconvenient.

[0074] this

[0075] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a washing sink and tableware processing system, which can at least to some extent solve the technical problem that the sterilization efficiency of electrolyzed water is low, resulting in a slow processing speed of food.

[0076] The technical solution of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0077] As shown in Figures 1 to 16, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cleaning sink 10. The cleaning sink 10 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure can disassemble the electrolysis device 200 and clean it separately, thereby greatly improving the cleaning convenience of the electrolysis device 200 and ensuring the service life of the electrolysis device 200.

[0078] As shown in Figures 1, 3, 7 and 8, the cleaning sink 10 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a sink body 100 and an electrolysis device 200. The sink body 100 includes an electrolytic cell 110 and an installation cavity 120 connected to the electrolytic cell 110. The electrolysis device 200 is installed in the installation cavity 120. The electrolysis device 200 includes an electrode assembly 210, a shell 220 and a fixing member 230. The electrode assembly 210 is installed on the shell 220, and the fixing member 230 is connected to the shell 220. The fixing member 230 is detachably connected to the installation cavity 120 through the connecting member 130.

[0079] The sink body 100 is the foundation of the washing sink 10, providing mounting and protection for at least the other components of the washing sink 10. The sink body 100 is integrated with a faucet to provide tap water. The electrolytic cell 110 holds food and tap water, and the electrolysis device 200 electrolyzes the tap water to generate active hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals, thereby disinfecting the food. Therefore, simply placing food in the electrolytic cell 110 disinfects it.

[0080] The mounting cavity 120 is a recessed cavity in the inner wall of the electrolytic cell 110. The electrolysis device 200 is installed within the mounting cavity 120, freeing up the cleaning space of the electrolytic cell 110 and allowing the cell 110 to accommodate more food at once. The mounting cavity 120 also provides some protection for the electrolysis device 200. The electrode assembly 210 generates current to electrolyze tap water, while the housing 220 provides mounting and protection for the electrode assembly 210.

[0081] In some embodiments, the connector 130 can be installed in the installation cavity 120 and removably connected to the installation cavity 120. Since the fixing member 230 is connected to the housing 220, and the fixing member 230 is removably connected to the installation cavity 120 via the connector 130, that is, the housing 220 is removably connected to the installation cavity 120 via the fixing member 230 and the connector 130, when the electrolysis device 200 needs to be cleaned, the fixing member 230 can be separated from the connector 130, and the housing 220 can be removed from the installation cavity 120 for cleaning. After cleaning, the electrolysis device 200 is placed in the installation cavity 120 and the fixing member 230 and the connector 130 are connected, thus reinstalling the electrolysis device 200 to the water tank body 100. Since the electrolysis device 200 can be removed and cleaned separately, the cleaning convenience of the electrolysis device 200 is greatly improved, and the service life of the electrolysis device 200 is guaranteed.

[0082] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 7 and 8, the housing 220 includes a mounting hole 221. The fixing member 230 is at least partially disposed in the mounting hole 221. The fixing member 230 is provided with an assembly hole 234. The connecting member 130 is detachably assembled in the assembly hole 234.

[0083] The fixing member 230 is connected to the housing 220 through the mounting hole 221. The connecting member 130 is removably assembled in the mounting hole 234 to achieve a removable connection with the fixing member 230. The mounting hole 234 may face the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 120, and the connecting member 130 is fixedly provided through the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 120 to mate with the mounting hole 234. Therefore, by separating the connecting member 130 from the mounting hole 234, the electrolysis device 200 can be removed for cleaning. After cleaning, the electrolysis device 200 is placed into the mounting cavity 120 and the connecting member 130 is assembled in the mounting hole 234, thereby reinstalling the electrolysis device 200 to the water tank body 100.

[0084] In some embodiments, the connector 130 can be threadedly engaged with the assembly hole 234 to enable the connector 130 to be detachably assembled in the assembly hole 234. That is, the connector 130 has an external thread, and the assembly hole 234 has an internal thread that matches the external thread. By twisting or untwisting the connector 130 or the fixing member 230, the threaded transmission between the connector 130 and the assembly hole 234 can be achieved to achieve disassembly or connection.

[0085] The connecting member 130 can also extend out of the installation cavity 120, and the extended portion of the connecting member 130 also has an external thread. A locking nut can be provided on the extended portion to lock the connecting member 130 so that the connecting member 130 can be detachably connected to the installation cavity 120.

[0086] In other embodiments, the connector 130 and the assembly hole 234 may also be connected in a detachable manner such as snap-fitting or plug-in connection, which is not limited thereto.

[0087] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG9 , the fixing member 230 includes a fixing portion 231 and a triggering portion 232. The fixing portion 231 is fixedly connected to the triggering portion 232. The fixing portion 231 is mounted within the mounting hole 221. The triggering portion 232 is partially located outside the mounting hole 221. The fixing portion 231 is detachably connected to the connector 130.

[0088] The fixing portion 231 is installed in the mounting hole 221 to connect the fixing member 230 to the housing 220. The trigger portion 232 is disposed on the side of the fixing portion 231 that is closer to the inside of the electrolytic cell 110. That is, the trigger portion 232 is located outside the mounting hole 221 and inside the electrolytic cell 110. Therefore, the user can rotate the fixing portion 231 relative to the connecting member 130 by twisting the trigger portion 232 outside the mounting hole 221, thereby separating or connecting the fixing member 230 from the connecting member 130.

[0089] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG9 , the trigger portion 232 includes a trigger section 232a and a mounting section 232b. The trigger section 232a protrudes from the mounting section 232b and is partially located outside the mounting hole 221. The mounting section 232b has a fixing groove 232d on a side away from the trigger section 232a, and the fixing portion 231 is fixedly mounted in the fixing groove 232d.

[0090] The fixing portion 231 is fixedly mounted within the fixing slot 232d, thereby connecting the fixing portion 231 to the trigger portion 232. The trigger segment 232a is partially located outside the mounting hole 221, making it easy for the user to twist the trigger segment 232a to rotate the fixing portion 231 relative to the connector 130, thereby separating or connecting the fixing portion 230 from the connector 130. The trigger portion 232 can be a strip-shaped raised structure, making it easy for the user to pinch the sides of the trigger portion 232 with their fingers to twist the trigger portion 232.

[0091] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, a clamping groove 221a is provided on the side wall of the mounting hole 221, and a clamping portion 232c is protruded from the mounting section 232b. The clamping portion 232c is clamped into the clamping groove 221a to enable the trigger portion 232 to be assembled in the mounting hole 221.

[0092] Because the triggering section 232a must be twisted to rotate the mounting section 232b, thereby rotating the fixing member 230, the cross-sections of the retaining groove 221a and the retaining portion 232c are both circular, meaning that both the mounting hole 221 and the mounting section 232b are circular. The retaining groove 221a is formed around the inner wall of the mounting hole 221, and the retaining portion 232c is correspondingly formed around the side wall of the mounting section 232b, allowing the retaining portion 232c to rotate within the retaining groove 221a.

[0093] In some embodiments, the retaining groove 221a has a first side surface 221b and a second side surface 221c spaced apart along the axis of the mounting hole 221. The retaining portion 232c is disposed between the first side surface 221b and the second side surface 221c, and the distance between the first side surface 221b and the second side surface 221c is greater than the length of the retaining portion 232c along the axis of the mounting hole 221.

[0094] The distance between the first side surface 221b and the second side surface 221c is greater than the length of the retaining portion 232c in the axial direction of the mounting hole 221, i.e., the retaining portion 232c is clearance-matched with the retaining slot 221a, thereby allowing the retaining portion 232c to be rotatably disposed in the retaining slot 221a. The retaining portion 232c can be positioned closer to the first side surface 221b / second side surface 221c with a larger clearance between the retaining portion 232c and the second side surface 221c / first side surface 221b, or the retaining portion 232c can be equidistant from the first side surface 221b and the second side surface 221c, without limitation.

[0095] In some embodiments, due to the clearance between the retaining portion 232c and the retaining groove 221a, when the electrolytic cell 110 is in use, water in the electrolytic cell 110 can easily enter the mounting hole 221 through the gap between the retaining portion 232c and the retaining groove 221a, causing corrosion to the fixing member 230 and the connecting member 130. Therefore, a sealing ring is further provided between the retaining portion 232c and the bottom wall of the retaining groove 221a to seal the retaining portion 232c and the bottom wall of the retaining groove 221a, thereby preventing water from entering the mounting hole 221.

[0096] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG8 , the fixing member 230 further includes a baffle 233 . The baffle 233 is clamped in the mounting hole 221 , and the fixing portion 231 is disposed between the trigger portion 232 and the baffle 233 .

[0097] When the fixing portion 231 is separated from the connecting member 130, the fixing member 230 is removed from the mounting hole 221, exposing the mounting hole 221 to the interior of the electrolytic cell 110. Water within the electrolytic cell 110 could potentially enter the mounting hole 221 and flow out of the electrolytic cell 110, causing leakage in the washing sink 10. This inconveniences the user and wastes water. Therefore, a baffle 233 is provided in the mounting hole 221 to partially block water from flowing into the mounting hole 221. The fixing portion 231 is disposed between the triggering portion 232 and the baffle 233, i.e., the baffle 233 is disposed on the side of the fixing portion 231 away from the triggering portion 232. Therefore, the baffle 233 does not interfere with the triggering portion 232 or the fixing portion 231. The baffle 233 does not affect the rotation of the triggering portion 232 or the removal and connection of the fixing portion 231 to the connecting member 130.

[0098] 8 and 9 , the cleaning tank 10 further includes a sealing member 140 . A portion of the sealing member 140 is disposed within the mounting hole 221 and is located on a side of the fixing member 230 away from the electrolytic cell 110 .

[0099] Seal 140 seals mounting hole 221, preventing water within electrolytic cell 110 from flowing out of electrolytic cell 110 through mounting hole 221. Seal 140 can be made of rubber and fits snugly within mounting hole 221. That is, baffle 233 blocks most water and impurities, while any water that enters mounting hole 221 through baffle 233 is prevented from flowing out by seal 140, thereby ensuring the sealing of mounting hole 221.

[0100] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8 and 9 , a plurality of abutting portions 142 are protruding from the outer wall of the sealing member 140 along the axial direction of the mounting hole 221. The abutting portions 142 abut against the inner wall of the mounting hole 221, i.e., multiple abutting points are formed between the sealant and the inner wall of the mounting hole 221, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the sealing member 140 on the mounting hole 221.

[0101] In some embodiments, the mounting cavity 120 has a fixing hole 121, and the sealing member 140 is snapped into the fixing hole 121, so that a portion of the sealing member 140 is located inside the mounting cavity 120 and a portion of the sealing member 140 is located outside the mounting cavity 120. The sealing member 140 has a transition hole 141. The connecting member 130 is disposed in the transition hole 141 and extends out of the mounting cavity 120.

[0102] The seal 140 is snapped into the fixing hole 121, securing the seal 140 to the sink body 100. Abutment 142 is provided in the portion of the sealant located within the mounting cavity 120, abutting against the inner wall of the mounting hole 221. The connector 130 is inserted into the transition hole 141 of the seal 140, and the extension of the connector 130 is locked with a lock nut, thereby securing the connector 130 to the sink body 100.

[0103] In some embodiments, there are multiple fixing members 230 , each of which is mounted on the housing 220 and arranged around the electrode assembly 210 .

[0104] Multiple fixing members 230 are provided to strengthen the connection between the housing 220 and the water tank body 100, making the entire electrolysis device 200 more securely installed in the installation cavity 120. A corresponding number of connecting members 130 are also provided. Multiple fixing members 230 are arranged around the electrode assembly 210, thereby preventing interference between the fixing members 230 and the electrode assembly 210 and further stabilizing the installation of the electrode assembly 210.

[0105] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1 , the mounting cavity 120 is disposed on a side wall of the electrolytic cell 110 , that is, the electrolysis device 200 is located on the side wall of the electrolytic cell 110 .

[0106] During the process of washing food in the electrolytic cell 110, a lot of food residue is removed. If the mounting cavity 120 is located at the bottom of the electrolytic cell 110, since the mounting cavity 120 is recessed into the inner wall of the electrolytic cell 110, food residue will accumulate in the mounting cavity 120, causing the electrode assembly 210 to be covered by the food residue, thereby affecting the electrolysis effect of the electrolysis device 200. However, if the mounting cavity 120 is located on the side wall of the electrolytic cell 110, the amount of food residue that enters the mounting cavity 120 can be reduced, thereby ensuring the electrolysis effect of the electrolysis device 200.

[0107] 2 , the cleaning sink 10 provided by the present disclosure further includes a water pump 700. The sink body 100 has a water inlet 122 and a water outlet 123 communicating with the installation cavity 120, and the water pump 700 is communicated with the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123, respectively.

[0108] As shown in Figures 1 to 16, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cleaning sink 10. The cleaning sink 10 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure can promote water circulation, accelerate the flow rate of water, and enable the hydroxyl radicals, active free radicals and hypochlorous acid generated by electrolysis to diffuse quickly, thereby accelerating the processing speed of food.

[0109] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cleaning sink 10, comprising a sink body 100, an electrolysis device 200, and a water pump 700. The sink body 100 comprises an electrolysis cell 110, a mounting cavity 120 communicating with the electrolysis cell 110, and a water inlet 122 and a water outlet 123 communicating with the mounting cavity 120. The electrolysis device 200 is disposed within the mounting cavity 120, and the water pump 700 is communicated with the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123, respectively.

[0110] The sink body 100 is the foundation of the washing sink 10, providing mounting and protection for at least the other components of the washing sink 10. The sink body 100 is integrated with a faucet to provide tap water. The mounting cavity 120 provides some protection for the electrolysis device 200. The electrolytic cell 110 is used to accommodate food and tap water. The electrolysis device 200 electrolyzes the tap water to produce active hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals, thereby disinfecting the food. Therefore, simply placing food in the electrolytic cell 110 disinfects the food.

[0111] The water pump 700 is a machine for conveying liquid or pressurizing liquid, and can transfer the mechanical energy of the prime mover or other external energy to the liquid to increase the liquid energy. The water pump 700 can be any existing water pump, and will not be described in detail here.

[0112] Because the water pump 700 is connected to the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123, respectively, the water pump 700 can input tap water into the electrolytic cell 110 through the water inlet 122 for electrolysis, and output the used tap water through the water outlet 123. That is, under the power of the water pump 700, the tap water in the electrolytic cell 110 is electrolyzed and circulated, creating an "undercurrent" effect in the water, thereby accelerating the flow of water and allowing the hydroxyl radicals, active free radicals, and hypochlorous acid generated by electrolysis to diffuse rapidly, thereby improving the electrolysis efficiency of the water and accelerating the sterilization of food.

[0113] As the water flow rate is accelerated, small vortices are formed, which can increase the contact area between food and electrolyzed water, thereby accelerating the sterilization efficiency of food.

[0114] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 and 3-5, the electrolysis device 200 includes a positive electrode connection terminal 240 and a negative electrode connection terminal 250 disposed opposite each other. The water outlet 123 is disposed near the positive electrode connection terminal 240. The water inlet 122 is disposed near the negative electrode connection terminal 250.

[0115] Positive terminal 240 is connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and negative terminal 250 is connected to the negative pole of the power supply. At positive terminal 240, hydroxide ions in the water lose electrons, generating oxygen and hydrogen ions. At negative terminal 250, hydrogen ions and chloride ions in the water gain electrons, generating hydrogen, hypochlorite, and hydroxyl radicals. Hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals are precisely the substances used for disinfection. Therefore, water inlet 122 is located near negative terminal 250, allowing water pump 700 to transport water to negative terminal 250. The flow of water at negative terminal 250 accelerates the diffusion of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals generated at negative terminal 250, thereby accelerating the sterilization of food. Since hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals are negative ions, they tend to migrate toward the positive electrode connection terminal 240. Since the water outlet 123 is located near the positive electrode connection terminal 240, the water circulation in the electrolytic cell 110 flows from the negative electrode connection terminal 250 to the positive electrode connection terminal. Therefore, the migration trend of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals themselves is superimposed on the flow direction of water, which can increase the diffusion rate of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals.

[0116] In some embodiments, the water outlet 123 is located between the positive electrode connection terminal 240 and the negative electrode connection terminal 250 .

[0117] Specifically, water outlet 123 is located on the side of positive electrode connection terminal 240 near negative electrode connection terminal 250. Since water pump 700 is fixed in position, a distance between water inlet 122 and water outlet 123 would result in a long pipe between water pump 700 and water inlet 122 or water outlet 123, slowing water circulation and, consequently, the diffusion of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals. Therefore, locating water outlet 123 between positive electrode connection terminal 240 and negative electrode connection terminal 250 shortens the pipe between water pump 700 and water inlet 122 or water outlet 123, thereby accelerating water circulation.

[0118] The distance between the water outlet 123 and the negative electrode connection terminal 250 is 50 mm to 90 mm. The distance between the water outlet 123 and the negative electrode connection terminal 250 can be 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, or 90 mm.

[0119] In some embodiments, the water inlet 122 is located on a side of the negative electrode connection terminal 250 away from the positive electrode connection terminal 240 .

[0120] To ensure a wide diffusion range for hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals, the distance between the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123 cannot be too close. Therefore, the water inlet 122 is located on the side of the negative electrode connection terminal 250 away from the positive electrode connection terminal 240. This allows for a certain distance between the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123, thereby increasing the diffusion range of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals and improving the sterilization efficiency of food.

[0121] In some embodiments, the distance between the positive electrode connection terminal 240 and the negative electrode connection terminal 250 is 90 mm to 130 mm.

[0122] The length between the positive terminal 240 and the negative terminal 250 is the effective length for electrolysis. If this length is too short, the electrolysis effect on tap water will be poor, resulting in insufficient food disinfection. If this length is too long, the limited size of the mounting cavity 120 will make it difficult to install the electrolysis device 200. Therefore, a distance between the positive terminal 240 and the negative terminal 250 of 90 mm to 130 mm satisfies installation requirements and ensures a sufficient electrolysis output.

[0123] In some embodiments, the distance between the positive electrode connection terminal 240 and the negative electrode connection terminal 250 may be 90 mm, 100 mm, 110 mm, 120 mm, or 130 mm.

[0124] In some embodiments, the distance between the water outlet 123 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is greater than the distance between the water inlet 122 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 .

[0125] The electrolytic cell 110 has an opening for the user to place food into the electrolytic cell 110 through the opening, and the bottom of the electrolytic cell 110 refers to the side of the electrolytic cell 110 away from the opening. The distance between the water outlet 123 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is greater than the distance between the water inlet 122 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110. In the actual use scenario of the electrolytic cell 110, the water outlet 123 is located above the water inlet 122. Since the height of the water outlet 123 determines the height of the liquid level, it can be ensured that the water circulation starts only after the liquid level in the electrolytic cell 110 reaches a certain height, thereby avoiding the situation where water is discharged from the water outlet 123 when the liquid level is low, resulting in insufficient amount of electrolyzed water, which affects the sterilization efficiency of the food.

[0126] In some embodiments, the distance between the water outlet 123 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is greater than 35 mm.

[0127] The machining of the water outlet 123 on the mounting cavity 120 requires a mold, such as a bending knife. If the distance between the water outlet 123 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is too small, the mold will be inconvenient to operate. Therefore, a certain distance must be set between the water outlet 123 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110. This distance also allows the electrolyzed water to flow, accelerating water circulation.

[0128] In some embodiments, the distance between the water outlet 123 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 may be 35 mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, 50 mm, or 55 mm.

[0129] In some embodiments, the distance between the water inlet 122 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is greater than 25 mm.

[0130] The water inlet 122 is machined on the mounting cavity 120 using a mold. If the distance between the water inlet 122 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is too small, the mold will be inconvenient to operate. Therefore, a certain distance must be set between the water inlet 122 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110.

[0131] In some embodiments, the distance between the water inlet 122 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 may be 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, 40 mm, or 45 mm.

[0132] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2 , the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123 are located above the water pump 700 .

[0133] The water pump 700 is connected to the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123 through pipes, and the water pump 700 is located below the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123. When the water pump 700 is not working, due to the gravity of the water, there will always be water in the pipes, so that when the water pump 700 is emptied, it will not suck in air, which will affect the water circulation efficiency.

[0134] In some embodiments, the height distance between the water inlet 122 and the water pump 700 is greater than or equal to 15 mm.

[0135] As mentioned above, the water inlet 122 must be located above the water pump 700 to ensure that there is always water in the pipeline and prevent air from being sucked back when the water pump 700 is emptied. If the height distance between the water inlet and the water pump 700 is too small, the pipeline between the water inlet and the water pump 700 will be too short, resulting in insufficient water in the pipeline and failing to prevent air from being sucked back. Therefore, the height distance between the water inlet 122 and the water pump 700 should be greater than or equal to 15 mm.

[0136] In some embodiments, the distance between the water inlet 122 and the water pump 700 in the height direction may be 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, or 35 mm.

[0137] In some embodiments, the water pump 700 is located outside the electrolysis cell 110 .

[0138] In order to prevent the water pump 700 from occupying the internal space of the electrolytic tank 110, the water pump 700 is disposed outside the electrolytic tank 110. The water pump 700 can be disposed on the side, bottom, etc. of the electrolytic tank 110, and is not limited thereto.

[0139] It should be noted that, in order to ensure the speed of water circulation, the distance between the water pump 700 and the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123 should not be too long, so the water pump 700 cannot be too far away from the electrolytic cell 110.

[0140] In some embodiments, the installation cavity 120 is protruded from the electrolytic cell 110 , and the installation cavity 120 and the water pump 700 are arranged side by side and staggered.

[0141] Specifically, the mounting cavity 120 is recessed into the inner wall of the electrolytic cell 110, and the electrolysis device 200 is installed within the mounting cavity 120. This eliminates the need to clean the electrolytic cell 110, allowing the electrolytic cell 110 to accommodate more food at once. Since both the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123 are located within the mounting cavity 120, the mounting cavity 120 and the water pump 700 are positioned side by side, allowing the water pump 700 to be closer to the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123, thereby accelerating water circulation. Furthermore, the staggered positioning of the mounting cavity 120 and the water pump 700 prevents interference between the mounting cavity 120 and the water pump 700.

[0142] In some embodiments, of the water inlet 122 and the water outlet 123 , the water pump 700 is disposed near the water inlet 122 .

[0143] That is, the distance between the water pump 700 and the water inlet 122 is shorter, and the water pump 700 inputs water into the water inlet 122 faster. Since the water inlet 122 is arranged close to the negative electrode connection terminal 250, the diffusion of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals generated at the negative electrode connection terminal 250 can be accelerated, thereby accelerating the sterilization speed of food.

[0144] In some embodiments, the water inlet 122 is disposed on a side wall of the installation cavity 120 , and the water outlet 123 is disposed on a bottom wall of the installation cavity 120 .

[0145] It should be noted that mounting cavity 120 has an opening communicating with electrolytic cell 110. The bottom wall of mounting cavity 120 is the inner wall opposite the opening, and the side walls of mounting cavity 120 are the inner walls disposed around the bottom wall. Water inlet 122 is disposed on the side wall of mounting cavity 120, and water outlet 123 is disposed on the bottom wall of mounting cavity 120. This allows for a closer distance between water inlet 122 and water outlet 123. Since water pump 700 is fixed in position, the distance between water pump 700 and water inlet 122 and water outlet 123 can be closer, thereby accelerating water circulation in electrolytic cell 110, thereby accelerating the diffusion of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals, and improving the disinfection efficiency of food.

[0146] Because the water pump 700 is located near the water inlet 122, it is also located near a sidewall of the mounting chamber 120. The water inlet is located on one of the sidewalls of the mounting chamber. Therefore, the water outlet is located on the bottom wall of the mounting chamber 120. This allows the pipe between the water outlet and the water pump 700 to bend only once, thereby increasing the speed of water circulation and promoting the diffusion of hypochlorite and hydroxyl radicals.

[0147] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6 , the cleaning tank 10 further includes a filter 300 , which is disposed at an opening where the installation cavity 120 communicates with the electrolytic tank 110 .

[0148] During the cleaning process of food in the electrolytic cell 110, a large amount of food residue is generated. Once this food residue enters the installation cavity 120, it will affect the electrolysis effect and efficiency of the electrolysis device 200, resulting in a decrease in the disinfection efficiency of the food. Therefore, a filter 300 is installed at the opening connecting the installation cavity 120 and the electrolytic cell 110 to block out a large amount of food residue, greatly reducing the impact of food residue on the electrolysis device 200 and ensuring the disinfection efficiency of the food.

[0149] In some embodiments, the depth of the mounting cavity 120 is 23 mm to 40 mm.

[0150] The mounting cavity 120 is formed by stamping on the side wall of the electrolytic cell, and the minimum length that can be stamped by the stamping die set is 23 mm. The depth of the mounting cavity 120 can be 23 mm, 25 mm, 27 mm, 29 mm, or 40 mm.

[0151] In some embodiments, the mounting cavity 120 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 .

[0152] Under the action of gravity, food residues will accumulate on the bottom wall of electrolytic cell 110. The installation cavity 120 can be spaced apart from the bottom wall of electrolytic cell 110 to reduce food residues entering the installation cavity 120, thereby ensuring the electrolysis effect of electrolysis device 200.

[0153] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , the sidewall of the electrolytic cell 110 has a guide surface 111 . The guide surface 111 is inclined from the mounting cavity 120 toward the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 .

[0154] The water entering through the water inlet 122 will flow toward the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110. Since the water inlet 122 is arranged in the installation cavity 120, and the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 are spaced apart, the guide surface 111 is inclined from the installation cavity 120 toward the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110, that is, the guide surface 111 is arranged in the gap between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110, and the guide surface 111 can guide the flow of water entering through the water inlet 122 to speed up the flow rate of water, thereby speeding up water circulation.

[0155] Since the guide surface 111 is set at an angle, in order to avoid the guide surface 111 forming sharp corners on the outer wall of the electrolytic cell 110 and causing harm to the user, the guide surface 111 can be set as an arc surface, that is, a rounded corner can be processed between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 to form the guide surface 111.

[0156] In some embodiments, the spacing distance between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 is less than or equal to 20 mm.

[0157] Since a guide slope is provided between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110, machining the guide slope requires a gap between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110. The guide slope can be machined by setting the gap between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 to be less than or equal to 20 mm.

[0158] In some embodiments, the spacing distance between the installation cavity 120 and the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 110 may be 12 mm, 14 mm, 16 mm, 18 mm, or 20 mm.

[0159] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 3, 7, and 8, an electrolysis device 200 may include an electrode assembly 210, a housing 220, and a fixing member 230. The electrode assembly 210 is mounted on the housing 220, and the fixing member 230 is connected to the housing 220. The water tank body 100 is provided with a connecting member 130. The fixing member 230 is detachably connected to the connecting member 130.

[0160] The electrode assembly 210 is used to generate current to electrolyze tap water, and the housing 220 provides installation and protection for the electrode assembly 210 .

[0161] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 , the electrode assembly 210 includes a plurality of positive electrode sheets 211 and a plurality of negative electrode sheets 212 , and the plurality of positive electrode sheets 211 and the plurality of negative electrode sheets 212 are alternately arranged.

[0162] The positive electrode sheet 211 and the negative electrode sheet 212 are the basic electrochemical reaction components of the battery cell. A current is generated between the positive electrode sheet 211 and the negative electrode sheet 212 to electrolyze tap water. Because multiple positive electrode sheets 211 and multiple negative electrode sheets 212 are arranged alternately, that is, the positive electrode sheets 211 and the negative electrode sheets 212 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, adjacent positive electrode sheets 211 and negative electrode sheets 212 form a pair.

[0163] A pair of positive and negative electrodes 211 and 212 can generate an electrolysis power of 7.5W. The greater the number of positive and negative electrodes 211 and 212, the greater the total electrolysis power and the stronger the electrolysis effect. Consequently, the more active hydroxyl radicals generated by electrolysis and the better the sterilization effect, the greater the number of positive and negative electrodes 211 and 212. The number of positive and negative electrodes 211 and 212 can be set as needed and is not limited thereto.

[0164] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 10-14 , the washing sink 10 provided by the present disclosure further includes a mounting structure 400, an electrical control unit 500, and a fastener 600. The mounting structure 400 is mounted on the outside of the sink body 100. The electrical control unit 500 includes an electrical control box 510 and an electrical control component 520. The electrical control component 520 is mounted within the electrical control box 510, which is disposed outside the sink body 100. The fastener 600 detachably connects the electrical control box 510 to the mounting structure 400.

[0165] The sink body 100 is connected to the electrical control box 510 via the mounting structure 400. The mounting structure 400 is used to mount the electrical control box 510 and can be installed on any external side of the sink body 100. The electrical control components 520, which include various circuit boards, controllers, and other components, are used to control the electrical equipment in the washing sink 10. The electrical control box 510 provides protection for the electrical control components 520.

[0166] The electric control box 510 and the mounting structure 400 are detachably connected by fasteners 600. Therefore, when the electric control box 510 needs to be replaced or repaired, the operator operates the fasteners 600 to separate the electric control box 510 and the mounting structure 400, and then the electric control box 510 can be removed from the sink body 100. After the replacement or repair of the electric control box 510 is completed, the electric control box 510 is placed on the mounting structure 400 and connected to the mounting structure 400 by the fasteners 600. Moreover, since the mounting structure 400 and the electric control box 510 are both arranged outside the sink body 100, it is convenient for the operator to operate the fasteners 600, thereby improving the convenience of replacing or repairing the electric control box 510.

[0167] In some embodiments, the mounting structure 400 has a first connection hole 410 , the electric control box 510 has a second connection hole 420 , and the fastener 600 is passed through the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 , so that the electric control box 510 and the mounting structure 400 are detachably connected.

[0168] Specifically, the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 are correspondingly provided, and the fastener 600 is detachably inserted through the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420. When the fastener 600 is inserted through the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420, the electric control box 510 is connected to the mounting structure 400. When the fastener 600 is separated from the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420, the electric control box 510 is disconnected from the mounting structure 400, thereby allowing the electric control box 510 to be removed from the sink body. A plurality of fasteners 600 may be provided, and the same number of first connection holes 410 and second connection holes 420 are provided to improve the connection strength between the electric control box 510 and the mounting structure 400, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the electric control box 510.

[0169] The first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 can be threadedly matched with the fastener 600 to achieve connection or separation of the fastener 600 from the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420. That is, the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 are screw holes, and the fastener 600 is a bolt. By screwing the fastener 600, the fastener 600 can be connected to or separated from the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420.

[0170] In other embodiments, the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 may be connected to the fastener 600 in a detachable manner such as snap-fitting or plug-in connection, which is not limited thereto.

[0171] In some embodiments, the mounting structure 400 is provided with a limiting hole 430 . The electric control box 510 is provided with a limiting portion 511 , which is passed through the limiting hole 430 .

[0172] The cooperation between the limiting portion 511 and the limiting hole 430 allows the electric control box 510 to be accurately positioned, so that the first connection hole 410 of the mounting structure 400 and the second connection hole 420 of the electric control box 510 can correspond. Specifically, when installing the electric control box 510, the limiting portion 511 is first inserted into the limiting hole 430 to accurately position the electric control box 510. After ensuring that the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 are aligned, the fastener 600 is then inserted into the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420 to connect the electric control box 510 to the mounting structure 400. When disassembling the electric control box 510, the fastener 600 is first removed from the first connection hole 410 and the second connection hole 420, and then the limiting portion 511 is separated from the limiting hole 430.

[0173] A plurality of limiting holes 430 may be provided, and the plurality of limiting holes 430 are evenly distributed on the mounting structure 400 to improve the positioning effect of the electric control box 510 , and a plurality of limiting portions 511 are also provided correspondingly.

[0174] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 14 , the limiting portion 511 includes an inlet section 511a and an overlap section 511b. The inlet section 511a extends from the top to the bottom of the sink body 100. The inlet section 511a and the electrical control box 510 are located on either side of the limiting hole 430. The overlap section 511b extends through the limiting hole 430.

[0175] The limiting portion 511 is integrally connected to the electrical control box 510, while the lead-in section 511a and the electrical control box 510 are located on either side of the limiting hole 430, respectively. The lead-in section 511a extends from the top to the bottom surface of the sink body 100. Therefore, the lead-in section 511a is tilted relative to the electrical control box 510. The inclined surface of the lead-in section 511a guides the installation of the limiting portion 511 in the limiting hole 430, thereby improving the positioning efficiency of the electrical control box 510. Specifically, when installing the electrical control box 510, the lead-in section 511a is first inserted into the limiting hole 430. The inclined surface of the lead-in section 511a guides the limiting portion 511 into position within the limiting hole 430. At this point, the overlapping section 511b passes through the limiting hole 430 and overlaps the electrical control box 510, thereby positioning the electrical control box 510 on the mounting structure 400.

[0176] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 12 , the mounting structure 400 has a stopper 440 , and the electric control box 510 has a stopper surface 513 . The stopper surface 513 can abut against the stopper 440 , and the stopper surface 513 is located above the stopper 440 .

[0177] The electrical box 510 is heavy and tends to move downward under gravity. If the fasteners 600's connection force is insufficient, the electrical box 510 could become detached from the mounting bracket, causing it to fall. The stopper 440 abuts against the underside of the stop surface 513, which can be considered as supporting the mounting structure 400 on the electrical box 510. That is, the mounting structure 400 and the electrical box 510 are connected via the fasteners 600, and the mounting structure 400 also supports the electrical box 510, thereby enhancing the installation stability of the electrical box 510.

[0178] Because the stop surface 513 is located above the stop portion 440, the overlapping section 511b is inserted into the limiting hole 430, and the inlet section 511a extends from the top surface to the bottom surface of the sink body 100, when the electric control box 510 needs to be removed, after removing the fastener 600, the electric control box 510 can be gently lifted upward to disengage the stop surface 513. The overlapping section 511b and the inlet section 511a are separated from the limiting hole 430, thereby completely separating the electric control box 510 from the mounting structure 400 and improving the ease of disassembly of the electric control box 510. The inclined surface of the inlet section 511a also provides a guide for the upward movement of the electric control box 510, thereby improving the efficiency of disassembly of the electric control box 510. When the electric control box 510 needs to be reinstalled, the limiting portion 511 is aligned with the limiting hole 430, and the stop surface 513 is aligned with the stop portion 440. Under the guidance of the introduction section 511a, the electric control box 510 is moved downward, even if the electric control box 510 is installed on the mounting structure 400, and then the electric control box 510 and the mounting structure 400 are connected by the fastener 600.

[0179] The stop surface 513 is located on the stop portion 440. In some embodiments, the electric control box 510 has a stop groove 512. The stop surface 513 is disposed in the stop groove 512.

[0180] The stop surface 513 is set in the stop groove 512, so the stop part 440 needs to be inserted into the stop groove 512 to abut against the stop surface 513, and the inner wall of the stop groove 512 can limit the stop part 440, so that the stop part 440 is not easily separated from the stop surface 513, thereby strengthening the abutment effect between the stop part 440 and the stop surface 513, thereby strengthening the support effect on the electric control box 510.

[0181] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 12 and 13, the electric control box 510 includes a base plate 514 and a box body 515. The electric control component 520 is installed on the base plate 514. The box body 515 covers the electric control component 520 and is detachably connected to the base plate 514. The base plate 514 is detachably connected to the mounting structure 400 via fasteners 600.

[0182] The base plate 514 provides a mounting base for the electronic control components 520, while the housing 515 protects the electronic control components 520 from corrosion caused by external impurities and moisture. The housing 515 is detachably connected to the base plate 514, allowing for easy opening of the housing 515 for maintenance of the electronic control components 520. The housing 515 and base plate 514 can be connected using a detachable connection method such as screwing, snapping, or plugging, without limitation.

[0183] In some embodiments, the base plate 514 includes a first connecting plate 514a, a second connecting plate 514b and at least two third connecting plates 514c, the third connecting plate 514c connects the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b, and the two adjacent third connecting plates 514c are arranged at intervals, the first connecting plate 514a is detachably connected to the box body 515, and the second connecting plate 514b is detachably connected to the mounting structure 400 via a fastener 600.

[0184] The first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b can be arranged in parallel, so that the mounting structure 400 and the electric control box 510 are also arranged in parallel, making the installation of the electric control box 510 more neat and beautiful. Two or more third connecting plates 514c can be provided to ensure the connection strength between the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b. The two adjacent third connecting plates 514c are arranged at intervals to make the connection strength between the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b more uniform, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the bottom plate 514 and providing a better installation foundation for the electric control component 520.

[0185] In some embodiments, the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b are spaced apart from each other.

[0186] Because the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b are spaced apart, the third connecting plate 514c is connected and disposed between the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b. At least two third connecting plates 514c are provided. Thus, the first connecting plate 514a, the second connecting plate 514b, and the third connecting plate 514c together form a cavity structure, which improves the overall structural strength of the base plate 514 and ensures a more secure installation of the electronic control component 520 on the base plate 514.

[0187] In some embodiments, two third connecting plates 514c may be provided. The two third connecting plates 514c are respectively provided at both ends of the first connecting plate 514a and the second connecting plate 514b to form a rectangular cavity structure to ensure the overall structural strength of the bottom plate 514.

[0188] In some embodiments, one of the first connecting plate 514a and the box body 515 has a first slot 516 , and the other of the first connecting plate 514a and the box body 515 has a first engaging portion 517 inserted into the first slot 516 .

[0189] The first connecting plate 514a may have a first latching slot 516 and the box body 515 may have a first latching portion 517, or the box body 515 may have a first latching slot 516 and the first connecting plate 514a may have a first latching portion 517, without limitation. The first latching portion 517 is inserted into the first latching slot 516, thereby achieving a detachable connection between the first connecting plate 514a and the box body 515. Multiple first latching slots 516 may be provided, and multiple first latching portions 517 may be provided accordingly to strengthen the connection between the first connecting plate 514a and the box body 515, thereby providing protection for the electronic control component 520.

[0190] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 10 and 11 , the mounting structure 400 is located on the back of the sink body 100. The electric control box 510 is disposed on a side of the mounting structure 400 away from the sink body 100.

[0191] It should be noted that the "back" here refers to the side of the sink body 100 facing away from the user when the sink body 100 is in use. Because the mounting structure 400 is located on the back of the sink body 100, the user cannot see the electronic control box 510 when using the sink body 100, thereby improving the overall aesthetics of the washing sink 10. The sink body 100 also provides a certain degree of protection for the mounting structure 400 and the electronic control box 510, preventing the user from accidentally touching the mounting structure 400 or the electronic control box 510 and damaging them.

[0192] In other embodiments, the mounting structure 400 may also be located on the front or side of the sink body 100. When the electric control box 510 needs to be repaired or replaced, it is convenient for the operator to remove the electric control box 510 from the mounting structure 400.

[0193] In some embodiments, the tank body 100 includes a cleaning tank 150 and an electrolytic tank 110 connected to each other. The mounting structure 400 is connected to the cleaning tank 150.

[0194] The electrolytic tank 110 is provided with an electrolysis device 200 for electrolyzing tap water to sterilize food. In the cleaning tank 150, only tap water is used to perform ordinary cleaning on food. Users can put food into the electrolytic tank 110 or the cleaning tank 150 for cleaning according to their needs. The cleaning tank 150 and the electrolytic tank 110 can be arranged side by side. Since the cleaning tank 150 has a wider range of usage scenarios and in order to save the power of the electrolytic tank 110, the size of the cleaning tank 150 can be larger than that of the electrolytic tank 110. Therefore, the connection between the mounting structure 400 and the cleaning tank 150 can make the connection area between the mounting structure 400 and the sink body 100 larger, thereby strengthening the connection strength between the mounting structure 400 and the sink body 100, and further strengthening the installation stability of the electrical control box 510.

[0195] In other embodiments, the mounting structure 400 may also be connected to the electrolytic cell 110 , which is not limited thereto.

[0196] In some embodiments, the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 is lower than the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110 , so that the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 and the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110 form a gap 160 , and a portion of the electric control box 510 is arranged corresponding to the gap 160 .

[0197] The bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 is lower than the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110. If the top surfaces are flush, that is, the depth of the cleaning tank 150 can be deeper than that of the electrolytic tank 110, resulting in a larger size of the cleaning tank 150 than the electrolytic tank 110. Because the mounting structure 400 and the electrical control box 510 are located on the back of the sink body 100, and a portion of the electrical control box 510 is positioned corresponding to the notch 160, that is, a portion of the electrical control box 510 is exposed through the notch 160. Therefore, when the electrical control box 510 needs to be replaced or repaired, the operator can directly remove it from the front through the notch 160 without moving the sink body 100, greatly improving the convenience of removing the electrical control box 510.

[0198] As shown in Figures 15 and 16 , the present disclosure also provides a dishware processing system 1, comprising a dishware processing device 20 and the aforementioned washing sink 10, wherein the dishware processing device 20 is located below the sink body 100. The beneficial effects of the dishware processing system 1 provided in the present disclosure are consistent with those of the aforementioned washing sink 10 and are not further described herein.

[0199] In some embodiments, the dishware processing device 20 may be a dishwasher, a disinfection cabinet, or the like. This disclosure uses a dishwasher as an example for illustration; similar applications may be made when the dishware processing device is another device. A dishwasher is used to wash dishes. Because it is significantly larger and heavier than the sink 10, and to facilitate the user's handling of food in the sink 10, the dishwasher is positioned below the sink 10. This provides some support for the sink 10, allowing the integrated dishwasher to combine both dishwashing and food cleaning functions, providing a more comprehensive functionality and greater convenience for the user.

[0200] In some embodiments, the depth of the cleaning tank 150 is greater than the depth of the electrolytic tank 110 , and the dishwasher 20 is located at least below the electrolytic tank 110 .

[0201] In the washing tank 150, only tap water is used to wash the food. Users can wash food in either the electrolytic tank 110 or the washing tank 150 according to their needs. The washing tank 150 and the electrolytic tank 110 can be arranged side by side. Because the washing tank 150 has a wider range of uses and to save power, the depth of the washing tank 150 can be greater than that of the electrolytic tank 110, thus providing a larger storage space for the washing tank 150 than the electrolytic tank 110. The dishwasher 20 can be located entirely or partially below the electrolytic tank 110, without limitation.

[0202] In some embodiments, a portion of the dishwasher 20 is located below the cleaning tank 150 , and a portion of the dishwasher 20 is located below the electrolytic tank 110 .

[0203] Because the electrolytic tank 110 is relatively narrow, the dishwasher 20 is relatively wide. This allows the dishwasher 20 to occupy the entire space below the electrolytic tank 110 and then be partially installed below the cleaning tank 150. Furthermore, the area below the cleaning tank 150, away from the electrolytic tank 110, is left empty, making it easier to arrange the drainage pipe for the cleaning tank 150.

[0204] That is to say, the drain pipe of the cleaning tank 150 and the dishwasher 20 are arranged side by side and staggered. This arrangement can make the internal space of the cleaning tank 150 large enough, thereby improving the utilization rate of the cleaning tank 150.

[0205] In some embodiments, a gap 160 is formed between the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 and the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110 ; the integrated dishwasher 1 further includes an electrical control unit 500 , and a portion of the electrical control unit 500 is exposed in the gap 160 .

[0206] The cleaning tank 150 and the upper surface of the electrolytic tank 110 can be set flush, making the overall appearance of the cleaning tank 10 more tidy, and because the depth of the cleaning tank 150 is greater than the depth of the electrolytic tank 110, that is, the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 is located below the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110, a gap 160 is formed between the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 and the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110.

[0207] Part of the electrical control unit 500 is exposed in the notch 160 , so that an operator can easily remove the electrical control unit 500 from the integrated dishwasher 1 through the notch, thereby providing convenience for the maintenance and replacement of the electrical control unit 500 .

[0208] In other embodiments, the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110 may be located below the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 150 to form the gap 160 , which is not limited to this.

[0209] In some embodiments, the electrical control unit 500 is located above the dishwasher 20 , that is, the electrical control unit 500 and the dishwasher 20 are installed in a way that avoids interference with each other, thereby preventing the dishwasher 20 from interfering with the assembly and disassembly of the electrical control unit 500 .

[0210] In other embodiments, since the dishwasher 20 is installed below the electrolytic tank 110 , the position of the notch allows a certain distance between the bottom surface of the electrolytic tank 110 and the top surface of the dishwasher 20 , thereby facilitating the arrangement of the drainage pipe of the electrolytic tank 110 .
