Definitions
- the invention relates to a household dishwasher with a housing in which a washing compartment is arranged and with at least one dosing device arranged inside the housing for the program-controlled addition of an active substance into the washing compartment.
- the invention relates to a method for dosing cleaning agent and bleach into the washing compartment of a household dishwasher with a housing and with at least one dosing device arranged inside the housing for separate storage and dispensing of the liquid or paste-like cleaning agent and the liquid or paste-like bleaching agent, the dosing device being equipped with storage containers for this purpose, which have a capacity that exceeds the amount of cleaning agent or bleaching agent required for a single washing process and the capacity of the supply tanks are different.
- Household dishwashers are generally known ( EP 1 329 187 A2 ), whose dosing systems are suitable for storing a large amount of liquid rinse aid, with a fraction of this amount then being dosed into the wash tub in each wash program.
- dosing systems are known ( DE 199 28 040 A1 ), in which liquid aftertreatment agents can also be stored. These dosing systems also have a receiving chamber into which detergent in the form of powder or tablets is filled for each wash cycle and which is then emptied into the wash tub by the program control during the corresponding program step.
- Another disadvantage is that the dosage of the cleaner is made by the user himself with a rough estimate of the amount actually required (when using powder) or without any possibility of variable dosage (when using tablets).
- a dishwasher with a dosing device in which larger amounts of so-called basic chemicals can be stored.
- the bleaching agent required for the rinsing process is produced here in the form of gaseous active chlorine in a microreactor.
- the use of chlorine gas leads to an unpleasant odor development, and chlorine gas is even poisonous in large quantities.
- the dosing chamber has a variable volume.
- the EP 0423044 B1 describes a distributor for a liquid product with a reservoir arranged, for example, on the door of a dishwasher.
- the U.S. 2002/0088502 discloses a dosing device for dosing a liquid product into a dishwasher with a reservoir.
- the WO 03/027377 A1 describes a storage metering device for installation in a washing machine or a dishwasher, which has a plurality of storage containers.
- the invention therefore addresses the problem of disclosing a household dishwasher of the type mentioned, which allows for the storage of larger amounts of detergent and thus, if necessary, their automatic dosing with improved handling Domestic dishwasher allowed. According to the invention, this problem is solved by a household dishwasher having the features of claim 1.
- the invention also faces the problem of disclosing a method for dosing such a cleaning agent, in which the refilling process is simplified. According to the invention, this problem is solved by a method having the features of claim 10.
- the advantages that can be achieved with the invention consist, in addition to a simplification of the operating process, in the fact that the amount of detergent can be automatically adapted to the degree of soiling of the dishes, the degree of filling and/or the washing program selected in each case.
- the separate storage of the cleaning and bleaching components offers the advantage that they can be added at different times and in different quantities and can then develop their optimum effect in the respective program section.
- the reservoirs are arranged in the upper area of an appliance door that closes the washing compartment. This facilitates their filling.
- the storage containers are thermally insulated from the rinsing container. This prevents the components from being too exposed to the temperature fluctuations in the washing tank, which could impair their effectiveness.
- dosing chambers are connected to the reservoir, the transition openings between the reservoir and the dosing chamber being separable from one another by first sealing elements. By opening these sealing elements, a defined amount is admitted into the dosing chambers, which is then emptied through outlet openings in the dosing chambers by opening second sealing elements. It is particularly advantageous if the first and second sealing element are each coupled to one another in such a way that closing a transition opening causes an outlet opening to open and opening a transition opening causes an outlet opening to close. As a result, only one actuator per reservoir is required to move the first and second sealing element. There is even the possibility of coupling the sealing elements of both reservoirs to one another and thereby saving a further actuator. However, this has the disadvantage that metering of the two components that is independent of time or quantity has to be dispensed with.
- the sealing elements can expediently be moved by an electric motor or electromagnetically.
- the second sealing elements are arranged in the impingement area of the liquid jet. This achieves cleaning of the sealing elements and thus ensures their tight fit.
- the capacity of a metering chamber is a fraction of the maximum amount of active ingredient metered in a washing program.
- the storage containers have different capacities. In this way, account can be taken of the fact that less bleach than cleaning agent is required in a rinsing process.
- the method for dosing cleaning agent and bleaching agent according to claim 11 is used here in an advantageous manner.
- the fact that the cleaning agent and the bleach are dosed in amounts within a washing program, the ratio of which corresponds to the ratio of the capacity of the reservoirs, ensures that both reservoirs are always empty at the same time and can therefore be refilled in a single step.
- FIG 1 the front side of a household dishwasher 1 is shown. In a known manner, this has a washing container 2 which is open towards the front and can therefore be closed by a pivoting appliance door 3 .
- the figure shows the machine with the door 3 closed, which is why the in figure 2 indicated flush tank 2 in figure 1 not is visible.
- the upper area of the door 3 can carry a control panel 4, in which there are rotary selector switches 5 and/or pushbuttons 6 for selecting a program and also display devices 7 for displaying user information.
- the device control 8 and other electrical and electronic components are arranged inside the control panel, which is symbolized by the dashed box.
- Door 3 is as in figure 2 recognizable, formed from an outer door panel 9 and an inner door panel 10 .
- the inner door panel 10 is provided with a beveled edge 11 so that a closed hollow body 12 is formed by joining the outer panel 9 and inner panel 10 .
- the dosing devices or reservoirs described below are arranged in this hollow body 12 and are therefore indicated by dashed structures; the valves, hose connections, electrical lines or similar that are also required. are not the subject of the invention and are therefore not shown here.
- a so-called combi-dosing device 13 which is suitable for receiving powdered or tablet-shaped detergent for one wash cycle and for receiving rinse aid for several wash cycles.
- a salt container can be provided, which accommodates the regeneration salt required for regenerating a softening device.
- a further dosing device 15 is arranged in the upper left half of the appliance door 3 .
- the other dosing device 15 is for the program-controlled dispensing of liquid or pasty cleaning agent 16 and liquid or pasty bleaching agent 17 (see Fig. Figure 3a and b ) suitable.
- the active ingredient components are stored separately from one another in two different containers 18 and 19 .
- the components enzyme/alkalinity and bleaching agent that are incompatible with one another in liquid and/or pasty formulations are only mixed in the washing container and can develop their full effect there.
- the further dosing device is provided as a supplement to the combination dosing device 13, so that the user can choose between conventional powder or tablet cleaning agents and liquid components.
- a less convenient embodiment can dispense with the combination dosing device 13, in which case the dosing device 15 must then be expanded to include a chamber for rinse aid (not shown).
- the dosing device 15 consists, as in figure 3 can be seen from the two reservoirs 18 and 19 with molded dosing chambers 20 and 21, each of which is associated with a closure device 22 and 23 respectively. It can be manufactured as a one-piece plastic component, in which case a common housing 24 is divided into the two containers 18 and 19 by means of a partition 25 . Alternatively, a separate construction of both containers 18 and 19 is possible.
- the dosing device 15 is in the cavity 12 between the outer panel 9 and the inner panel 10 deployed.
- the reservoirs 18 and 19 are surrounded by a thermal insulation layer 26 at least on the side facing the washing compartment 2 .
- all container walls can be made of a heat insulating material (not shown).
- the outlet openings 27 and 28 for dosing the media 16 and 17 are designed as channels 29 (see Fig. figure 2 ), which penetrate the inner door panel 10 approximately at the level of the access flaps 30 to 32 of the salt container 14 and the combination dosing device 13.
- the filling openings are also designed as channels 33 and protrude through the folded edge 11 of the inner door panel 10, so that the containers 18 and 19 can be easily filled when the appliance door 3 is slightly open. A mechanism not shown in the drawings can ensure that the door is held in this slightly open position, so that the user has both hands free for filling.
- the closure means consist of pushers 34 and 35 connecting respectively rods 36 and 37 of electromagnets 38 and 39 between a first, in Figure 3a shown position and a second, in Figure 3b shown position are movable.
- the upper ends 34.1 and 35.1 of the tappets 34 and 35 are rounded and thus form upper sealing surfaces through which the transition openings 40 and 41 between the storage containers 18 and 19 and the metering chambers 20 and 21 can be closed, as in Figure 3b shown.
- the lower ends 34.2 and 35.2 are also rounded and form lower sealing surfaces with which the inlets of the channels 29 and thus the outlet openings 27 and 28 to the washing container 2 can be closed, see FIG Figure 3a .
- the plunger 34 remains lowered and closes the outlet opening 27 with its lower sealing surface 34.2.
- the reservoir 18 is open to the dosing chamber 20 and the dosing chamber 20 is consequently filled.
- the plunger 34 is then raised so that the upper sealing surface 34.1 closes the transition opening 40 and prevents the medium 16 from running into the dosing chamber 27. At the same time, this removes the lower sealing surface 34.2 from the channel inlet and releases the outlet opening 27.
- the supply of cleaning agent 16 in the dosing chamber 20 is thus emptied into the washing container 2 .
- the dosing of bleach 17 from the reservoir 19 by means of the closure device 23 is analogous.
- the outlet openings 27 and 28 should be placed so that they are hit by a spray jet through one of the spray arms (e.g. the middle one, not shown), which gives the possibility that the spray jets can clean the sealing seat between outlet and metering chamber 20 or 21.
- the spray jets can even partially wash out the dosing chamber 20 or 21 .
- the metering chambers 20 and 21 are also dimensioned in such a way that their capacity is only a fraction of the maximum amount of active substance metered in a washing program. In this way, such a fraction can be dosed several times in the course of a washing program.
- the metered amount of cleaning agent either as a function of the program set and/or as a function of parameters of the items to be washed and/or the washing liquid determined by sensors.
- the detergent consumption can thus be optimized depending on the load, the level of dirt or the program, for example by measuring the turbidity of the suds using a corresponding turbidity sensor (not shown).
- the subsets can be supplied to the washing container at different time intervals of the washing program.
- higher dosages can also be used as the level in the reservoirs 18 and 19 decreases.
- at least one level sensor (not shown in the drawings) or a device for detecting that the container is empty or that the container is full is required, with the latter also having to count the number of meterings that have already taken place.
