[0001] Cross-reference to Related Applications
[0002] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202411311345.9, filed on September 19, 2024, with the Chinese Patent Office, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of dishwashers, in particular to a sludge collecting and filtering device and a dishwasher. BACKGROUND
[0004] The dishwasher applies internal circulating water for jet washing, so as to reduce water consumption. During the washing process, food residues enter the water, and are filtered through the filter screen. As the food residues accumulate, the holes on the filter screen are gradually blocked by large particles, the water inlet of the water pump is gradually reduced, the water jet intensity of the washing is affected, and the tableware is not washed clean. In order to ensure the washing effect of the dishwasher, the user must clean the filter screen regularly.
[0005] In the existing internal circulation system, the residues are always flushed by the circulating water, and small particles of residues can enter the cleaning water and be brought to the tableware, causing secondary pollution of the tableware. In order to ensure the washing effect of the dishwasher, the following solutions are usually used: 1) increasing the filter screen area to reduce the frequency of cleaning the filter screen; 2) using a scraper to clean the side where the residues accumulate on the filter screen.
[0006] However, increasing the filter screen area increases the cost of the filter screen; when the scraper is used for cleaning, the residues are squeezed and penetrate the filter screen into the water pump, causing secondary pollution, affecting the cleaning effect, affecting the performance and service life of the filter screen, and increasing the secondary pollution and affecting the cleaning effect. In addition, the residues adhere to the filter screen, and the residues are difficult to discharge.

[0042] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0043] As shown in Figures 1 to 10, this application provides a residue collection and filtration device 10, which can be used in a dishwasher. The residue collection and filtration device 10 includes a water collection chamber 101, a filter chamber 102, and a residue collection chamber 103. The water collection chamber 101 is used to collect washing water, the filter chamber 102 is used to separate residue and water from the washing water, and the residue collection chamber 103 is used to collect the residue separated by the filter chamber 102.
[0044] Specifically, during the operation of the dishwasher, the circulating pump 12 can drive the washing water to flow from the residue collecting and filtering device 10 to the components such as the spray arm for cleaning the tableware, and the tableware is cleaned by the washing water; then the washing water flows into the residue collecting and filtering device 10 and converges to the water collecting cavity 101; then the washing water in the water collecting cavity 101 flows into the filtering cavity 102, and the washing water in the filtering cavity 102 is subjected to residue-water separation; most of the separated water flows into the circulating pump 12 and is pumped to the components such as the spray arm for cleaning the tableware by the circulating pump 12, and the separated residue flows into the residue collecting cavity 103.
[0045] According to the residue collecting and filtering device 10 of the embodiment of the present application, the washing water can be filtered by the filtering cavity 102, and the residue can be collected by the residue collecting cavity 103, so that the residue can be stored in the residue collecting cavity 103, the residue collection during the washing process is facilitated, and the residue stored in the filtering cavity 102 does not affect the residue-water separation of the washing water in the filtering cavity 102, so that the filtering effect of the residue collecting and filtering device 10 is improved. In addition, after the residue is collected by the residue collecting cavity 103, the residue can be discharged by manual or automatic mode, and since the residue is relatively concentrated, the residue can be conveniently discharged.
[0046] As shown in FIGS. 3 and 10, the filtering cavity 102 can have a first inlet 1021 and a first outlet 1022, the first inlet 1021 is communicated with the water collecting cavity 101, and the first outlet 1022 is used for discharging the separated water, and the filtering cavity 102 is provided with a first filter screen 163. The first inlet 1021 and the second inlet 1031 are arranged on one side of the first filter screen 163, and the first outlet 1022 is arranged on the other side of the first filter screen 163. Specifically, the washing water enters the filtering cavity 102 through the first inlet 1021, the water in the washing water flows to the first outlet 1022 through the first filter screen 163, and is finally pumped for cleaning the tableware. The residue in the washing water is discharged from the filtering cavity 102 through the second inlet 1031 and flows to the residue collecting cavity 103, so that the residue is separated by the residue collecting cavity 103. The residue-water separation of the filtering cavity 102 is facilitated, the filtering efficiency and filtering effect of the filtering cavity 102 are improved, the first filter screen 163 is prevented from being blocked, and the stability of the residue collecting and filtering device 10 is improved. Of course, the first filter screen 163 in the present application can also be arranged outside the filtering cavity 102.
[0047] The slag collecting cavity 103 can have a second inlet 1031, a second outlet 1032 and a slag outlet 1033. The second inlet 1031 is connected to the filtering cavity 102. The second outlet 1032 is used for draining water. The slag outlet 1033 is used for discharging slag. The slag collecting cavity 103 is provided with a second filter screen 164. The second inlet 1031 and the slag outlet 1033 are arranged on one side of the second filter screen 164. The second outlet 1032 is arranged on the other side of the second filter screen 164. Specifically, the separated slag and part of the water after passing through the filtering cavity 102 are introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103 through the second inlet 1031. Under the filtering effect of the second filter screen 164, the water is sent out from the second outlet 1032 and is sent to the component for washing the tableware under the driving effect of the circulating pump 12. The remaining slag after filtering is stored in the slag collecting cavity 103 and can be discharged through the slag outlet 1033. The slag collecting cavity 103 can separate the water and the slag introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103. Therefore, part of the water in the filtering cavity 102 can be introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103. Thus, the water flow can be used to carry the slag in the filtering cavity 102 into the slag collecting cavity 103, so as to facilitate the slag collecting cavity 103 to collect the slag. In addition, the water introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103 is sent out after being filtered, which can avoid the backflow of the slag-water mixture in the slag collecting cavity 103 to the filtering cavity 102. Of course, the second filter screen 164 in the present application can also be arranged outside the slag collecting cavity 103.
[0048] In addition, the slag filtering device 10 further comprises a circulating pump 12 and a drainage pump 13. The circulating pump 12 is connected to the first outlet 1022 and the second outlet 1032. The drainage pump 13 is connected to the slag outlet 1033.
[0049] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 10, in some embodiments, the water collecting cavity 101 and the filtering cavity 102 are arranged side by side. The first inlet 1021 is arranged between the water collecting cavity 101 and the filtering cavity 102. This can facilitate the washing water in the water collecting cavity 101 to flow into the filtering cavity 102, thereby improving the filtering efficiency and filtering flow of the slag filtering device 10 to meet the pumping demand of the circulating pump 12 and the washing water demand of the dishwasher.
[0050] Optionally, an air vent 1023 is further arranged between the water collecting cavity 101 and the filtering cavity 102. The air vent 1023 is connected to the external space of the slag filtering device 10 for balancing the air pressure inside and outside the filtering cavity 102. The air vent 1023 can be arranged on the upper end of the peripheral wall of the filtering cavity 102. This can facilitate the washing water to be discharged into the filtering cavity 102, which is beneficial to filtering the washing water through the slag filtering device 10 and effectively improves the filtering efficiency and effect. In addition, the air vent 1023 is higher than the first inlet 1021 and / or the air vent 1023 is not lower than the second inlet 1031, which can reduce the possibility of the air vent 1023 being blocked.
[0051] In some embodiments, the filtering cavity 102 and the slag collecting cavity 103 are arranged side by side, and the second inlet 1031 is arranged between the filtering cavity 102 and the slag collecting cavity 103. The washing water with residues in the filtering cavity 102 can be conveniently introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103, and the filtering efficiency and effect of the slag filtering device 10 are improved.
[0052] Alternatively, the second inlet 1031 is higher than the bottom of the filtering cavity 102 and the bottom of the slag collecting cavity 103. The fluid in the filtering cavity 102 can be prevented from flowing into the slag collecting cavity 103 without resistance, most of the washing water is filtered in the filtering cavity 102, the amount of washing water introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103 is small, the impact on the residues in the slag collecting cavity 103 is reduced, in addition, the backflow of the residues in the slag collecting cavity 103 is also avoided. In addition, the slag collecting cavity 103 is closed except for the second inlet 1031 and the second outlet 1032 during the filtering of the slag filtering device 10, a relatively high pressure environment can be conveniently formed in the slag collecting cavity 103, so as to reduce the water introduced into the slag collecting cavity 103, the residues can be retained in the slag collecting cavity 103, and the filtering efficiency and effect of the slag filtering device 10 are improved.
[0053] In some embodiments, the slag filtering device 10 further comprises a drainage cavity 104, the drainage cavity 104 is arranged below the water collecting cavity 101 and communicates with the water collecting cavity 101 and the slag discharge port 1033, and the drainage pump 13 communicates with the drainage cavity 104. The residues can be discharged by using the drainage cavity 104, and the automatic slag discharge of the slag filtering device 10 is facilitated. Specifically, during use, the washing water flows into the slag collecting cavity 103, wherein the water enters the filtering cavity 102 from the first inlet 1021, most of the water flows into the first outlet 1022 after passing through the first filter screen 163, a small amount of water flows into the slag collecting cavity 103 and flows into the second outlet 1032 after passing through the second filter screen 164; part of the residues flow into the drainage cavity 104 from the water collecting cavity 101, part of the residues enter the filtering cavity 102 from the water collecting cavity 101, flow into the first outlet 1022 after filtering, enter the slag collecting cavity 103, and remain in the slag collecting cavity 103 after passing through the second filter screen 164; during slag discharge or water discharge, the residues in the slag collecting cavity 103 enter the drainage cavity 104 and are discharged from the slag filtering device 10 together with the residues in the drainage cavity 104.
[0054] Optionally, the residue discharge port 1033 is provided with a one-way valve 17, which opens the residue discharge port 1033 to communicate with the drainage cavity 104. The one-way valve 17 is configured to open the residue discharge port 1033 in the residue discharge direction of the residue collection cavity 103. In addition, the residue discharge port 1033 can communicate with the drainage pump 13. During the filtration process, the drainage pump 13 is closed, the air pressure at the inlet of the drainage pump 13 is relatively high, and the air pressure in the residue collection cavity 103 is relatively low, so that the one-way valve 17 is in a closed state. During the residue discharge process, the drainage pump 13 is running, the air pressure at the inlet of the drainage pump 13 is relatively low, and the air pressure in the residue collection cavity 103 is relatively high, so that the one-way valve 17 is in an open state, so as to discharge the residue in the residue collection cavity 103.
[0055] The aforementioned one-way valve 17 can include a cover plate, a rubber cap, a support, and a third sealing ring, etc., and mainly realizes the opening and closing functions of the residue discharge port 1033.

[0106] The application also provides a dishwasher comprising the aforementioned slag collecting and filtering device 10.
[0107] In combination with FIGS. 1-10, the slag collecting and filtering device 10 of the application can comprise a water collecting cavity 101, a filtering cavity 102, a slag collecting cavity 103, a circulating pump 12, a drain pump 13, a water distribution valve 1111, etc. The device has a multi-stage filtering function. The main multi-stage filtering is performed by the planar filter screen 161, the filter cup 162, the first filter screen 163, the second filter screen 164, the circulating pump 12, the driving member 14, the transmission assembly 15, etc.
[0108] Specifically, the first-stage filtering system comprises the planar filter screen 161 and the filter cup 162. During the cleaning process, after the water washes the surface of the tableware, the water carries the residues to the bottom of the cleaning cavity, flows through the planar filter screen 161, and collects in the water collecting cavity 101. The residues smaller than the aperture size of the planar filter screen 161 (0.5-2 mm) enter the filtering cavity 102. The residues larger than the aperture size of the planar filter screen 161 enter the filter cup 162.
[0109] The filter cup 162 has two aperture sizes. The aperture size of the side surface of the filter cup 162 can be set to 0.5-3 mm. The aperture size of the bottom of the filter cup 162 can be set to 5-10 mm. The residues larger than the aperture size of the bottom of the filter cup 162 need to be cleaned manually. The residues smaller than the aperture size of the side surface of the filter cup 162 and larger than the aperture size of the bottom of the filter cup 162 are discharged by the drain pump 13 during the water drainage. The residues smaller than the aperture size of the side surface of the filter cup 162 enter the filtering cavity 102. The first-stage filtering realizes the filtering of the residues larger than 3 mm.
[0110] The secondary filtering system is composed of the first filter screen 163 and the second filter screen 164. The first filter screen 163 and the second filter screen 164 can have the same or different aperture diameters. The water and the residue entering the filtering cavity 102 are filtered by the first filter screen 163, and the tiny particles smaller than the first filter screen 163 can pass through the filter screen and enter the circulating pump 12 with the water. The residue larger than the first filter screen 163 (with a size of 0.1-3 mm) enters the residue collecting cavity 103. When draining water, the residue in the residue collecting cavity 103 is discharged by the drainage pump 13.
[0111] The first filter screen 163 and the second filter screen 164 of the secondary filtering are driven to rotate by the driving member 14 and the transmission assembly 15. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the residue is separated from the filter screen.
[0112] In the application, the first filter screen 163 and / or the second filter screen 164 can be rotatable and utilize centrifugal separation.
[0113] Specifically, the water filtered by the primary filtering enters the filtering cavity 102, and the first filter screen 163 rotates at high speed under the driving of the driving member 14 (such as a motor). Through the high-speed rotation of the first filter screen 163, the contamination adhered to the outer surface of the first filter screen 163 is separated from the filter screen, so that the first filter screen 163 has better water permeability. The first filter screen 163 is provided with first blades, the rotation of the first blades pushes the water to flush the surface of the first filter screen 163, accelerates the separation of the residue from the filter screen, and makes the filter screen cleaning more thorough. In addition, the first inlet 1021 is arranged on the peripheral surface of the filtering cavity 102, the first outlet 1022 is arranged on the bottom surface of the filtering cavity 102, and the second inlet 1031 is arranged on the peripheral surface of the filtering cavity 102. When the circulating pump 12 works, the water is sucked from the filtering cavity 102 into the pump cavity of the circulating pump 12. A low-pressure area is formed at the first outlet 1022, the outer side of the filter screen of the filtering cavity 102 is a relatively high-pressure area, and the position of the first inlet 1021 is a relatively high-pressure area; a low-pressure area is formed at the second outlet 1032, and the position of the second inlet 1031 is a relatively high-pressure area. Therefore, part of the water enters the second outlet 1032 through the residue collecting cavity 103. The contamination on the outer side of the first filter screen 163 is pushed towards the second inlet 1031 by the water flow, and enters the residue collecting cavity 103 through the second inlet 1031. Since the water flow in the residue collecting cavity 103 is slow, and the second filter screen 164 is arranged at the second outlet 1032, the contamination is collected in the residue collecting cavity 103, the residue collecting function is realized, the contamination is separated from the circulating water, therefore, the water for cleaning tableware is always clean water, and the secondary pollution of the tableware is avoided. In addition, the application also provides a cleaning module for cleaning the first filter screen 163, and the circulating water micro-filtration function and the centrifugal cleaning filter screen function are used to clean the first filter screen 163.
[0114] In addition, during the cleaning process, the water filtered by the first filter enters the slag collection chamber 103 from the second inlet 1031 through the filter chamber 102, and the slag is collected in the slag collection chamber 103 and separated from the main circulating water, so as to realize slag-water separation. In order to solve the problem of slag blocking the second filter screen 164, a second blade is arranged at the bottom of the second filter screen 164. The second filter screen 164 is driven to rotate by the motor, and the water flow driven by the second blade scours the surface of the filter screen, so that the slag is separated from the surface of the filter screen. When draining, the second filter screen 164 rotates, and the second flow disturbing member 1641 agitates the water in the slag collection chamber 103 to make the slag move with the water, and the slag is discharged through the slag discharge port 1033 of the slag collection chamber 103. The slag collection chamber 103 can realize the functions of slag collection and slag-water separation.
[0115] The slag collection and filtration device 10 of the present application can separate the slag from the circulating water, realize clean water cleaning, avoid secondary pollution, automatically clean the filter screen through centrifugal separation, and the filter screen does not need to be maintained by people, can ensure the stability of the water pump output, improve the working efficiency of the water pump, and make the slag more easily discharged after aggregation. All filter screens can be easily taken out and maintained.
