In addition, descriptions involving terms “first,” “second” and the like in the present disclosure are only for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or the number of features referred to. Therefore, the features defined with “first” and “second” may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

The present disclosure proposes a spraying apparatus that is mainly applied in dishwashers to improve the water utilization rate of the dishwasher and the cleaning efficiency for tableware. The spraying apparatus includes a spray pipe 20. The spray pipe 20 is provided with a water spray hole 203 and a water spray groove 202 at the same time, and the water spray hole 203 is in communication with the water spray groove 202, so that water sprayed from the spray pipe 20 is sectorial, and when the spray pipe 20 rotates along a rotating shaft in its length direction, a cleaning plane is formed on a top of the spray pipe 20, improving the cleaning efficiency. By setting a variety of rotation modes of the spray pipe 20, working states of the spray pipe 20 can correspond to different cleaning modes to deal with different working conditions, to greatly improve the cleaning efficiency and adaptability of cleaning equipment.
A structure of the spraying apparatus will be described below.
Referring to
Since the dishwasher proposed by the present disclosure uses the spray pipe 20 instead of spray arms, and the spray pipe 20 rotates around an axis to change a spray angle and in turn a washing range, at least two beneficial effects as below can be achieved. First, the spray pipe 20 is small in size and occupies a small space, so a sink dishwasher has a large accommodating space. In addition, because the spray pipe 20 rotates around its axis, the space occupied by the spray pipe 20 is equal to its actual volume, ensuring that the sink dishwasher has a large accommodating space. Second, since the spray pipe 20 is controlled by the drive device 30, a rotation angle of the spray pipe 20 can be accurately controlled, so that a washing angle and a washing range of the spray pipe 20 can be accurately controlled, avoiding a dead angle of cleaning, and washing the tableware thoroughly.
The drive device 30 of the present disclosure can drive the spray pipe 20 to rotate, and therefore can actively control the washing angle of the spray pipe 20 to avoid the dead angle of cleaning and wash the tableware thoroughly, improving a cleaning effect of the spray pipe.
In one embodiment, as shown in
The driven gear 220 may be directly fitted over the transmission end 2012. In some embodiments, a driven rotating shaft may also be provided at the transmission end 2012, and the driven gear 220 may be fitted over the driven rotating shaft. A rotation axis of the driven gear 220 is collinear with an axial axis of the spray pipe 20. The driving gear 210 meshes with the driven gear 220, and its position relative to the driven gear 220 can be variable, for example, it may be located above, below, on the left or on the right of the driven gear. For example, the driving gear is arranged below the driven gear 220. In an example where a water spraying direction is upward, by arranging the driving gear 210 in the below, it is possible to avoid interfering with the cleaning of tableware and the like. For example, the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220 are both spur gears. The number of driven gears 220 is multiple, and may be two, three, or even more. In an example of two driven gears, the driving gear 210 is arranged below and between the two driven gears. The driving gear 210 meshes with the two driven gears 220 at the same time. When the driving gear 210 is working, rotation directions of the two driven gears 220 are the same, so that the two driven gears 220 rotate in the same direction, and rotation directions of spray pipes 20 connected with the two driven gears 220 are the same. In this way, a plurality of spray pipes 20 driven by the same driving gear 210 can work in unison, making a cleaning pace of the spray pipes 20 consistent and improving the cleaning efficiency.
The drive mechanism 300 can have many forms, such as a motor, an impeller, a fuel engine, etc. The drive mechanism 300 has a drive shaft, and the drive shaft is directly inserted into the driving gear 210 or is connected to the driving gear 210 after being decelerated by a transmission structure. The driving gear 210 rotates with the drive shaft as a rotating shaft. The drive mechanism 300 takes a drive motor as an example, and the driving gear 210 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft of the drive motor.
In this embodiment, a drive force of the drive mechanism 300 is transmitted to the spray pipe 20 through the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220, so that the spray pipe 20 rotates along its axial axis, and water is sprayed from the water spray hole 203 on the spray pipe 20. During the rotation of the spray pipe 20, a spraying area is formed. Since the spray pipe 20 is driven by a gear structure, the rotation and power transmission of the spray pipe 20 are very stable and reliable. At the same time, the rotation angle of the spray pipe 20 can be controlled very accurately, to control a change in the spraying area. As a result, the spraying apparatus can accurately control the spraying area, which is beneficial to improving the accuracy of spray-washing of the spraying apparatus for the tableware and enhancing the water utilization rate and the cleaning efficiency. Since the plurality of driven gears 220 are driven by a single driving gear 210 simultaneously, a single drive mechanism 300 can drive the plurality of spray pipes 20 at the same time, which improves the utilization rate of the drive mechanism 300, simplifies the transmission mechanism 200, saves space, enhances compactness of the drive and transmission structures of the spray pipe 20, and improves the stability of driving of the spray pipe 20.
It should be noted that, in order to ensure a range of a water delivery area, as shown in
It should be noted that regarding the deflection angle of the spray pipe 20, the angle is a central angle, i.e., an angular range where the water spray hole 203 swings by taking the axial axis of the spray pipe 20 as a center line of a circle and a distance from the water spray hole 203 to the center line as a radius. Within the deflection angle range where the water spray hole 203 swings, the water flow can always pass, and within a maximum height reached by the water flow. Taking a vertical plane that passes through the center line and bisects the water spray hole 203 as a reference plane, the deflection angle is halved by the reference plane. Taking the deflection angle of 150° as an example and taking the center line of the circle as an axis of rotation, the reference plane is deflected by 75° in left and right directions separately to form two inclined planes. An included angle between the two inclined planes is 150°, and an area between the two inclined planes is an area where the spray pipe 20 sprays water.
It should be noted that the spray pipe 20 is only a name of the pipe and is not only be used for spraying water. It can be understood that the spray pipe 20 can also spray cleaning liquid, oil and other fluids.
Regarding the positional arrangement of the driving gear 210, the driven gear 220, and the drive mechanism 300, as shown in
In this embodiment, a water pump and other water supply components of the cleaning equipment (take the dishwasher as an example) are arranged under an inner container or a washing tank, and the spray pipe 20 is arranged in the inner container or the washing tank, that is, the water pump and other water supply components are arranged below the spray pipe 20. When the driving gear 210 and the drive mechanism 300 are also arranged below the spray pipe 20, the space is fully utilized, the height of the entire cleaning equipment will not be increased, and the structural compactness can be enhanced. Likewise, the drive mechanism 300 is arranged on the side of the driving gear 210 facing the water spray hole 203, so that the installation position of the drive mechanism 300 additionally increases the width of the cleaning equipment, which fully and reasonably utilizes the space and is beneficial to improving the structural compactness.
In some embodiments, as shown in
However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiment, as shown in
In one embodiment, as shown in
In some embodiments, in order to ensure that the spray pipe 20 rotates within a preset angle area to ensure the accuracy of the cleaning area, the driving gear 210 or the driven gear 220 is provided with a limiting structure that may be a mechanical structure. Through this mechanical structure, the rotation of the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220 is physically restricted to achieve a purpose of controlling the deflection area (of the spray pipe 20) rotated by the driven gear 220. The limiting structure can be an electronically controlled sensor structure, and the sensor can be a pressure sensor, an optical sensor, a micro-control switch, etc. The sensor structure converts detected changes into voltage or current signals and transmits them to a main control circuit of the spraying apparatus. The main control circuit performs control over the drive mechanism 300 according to the received electrical signals. Here are a few examples to illustrate:
Mechanical limiting mechanism: a limiting block is provided on a periphery of the driving gear 210 and/or the driven gear 220 to limit a deflection angle range of the driven gear 220 and the spray pipe 20. The limiting block is arranged on the periphery of the driving gear 210 or the driven gear 220 and may be a square block or a special-shaped block, as long as the limiting block cannot mesh with normal teeth. In one embodiment, when the limiting block is in contact with the teeth, the teeth cannot pass over the limiting block, and instead, the teeth should be blocked by the limiting block, to restrict the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220 from continuing to rotate relative to each other. The position of the limiting block is set according to the preset deflection angle range of the spray pipe 20. When the teeth on the driving gear 210 abut against the limiting block on the driven gear 220 (taking the limiting block arranged on the driven gear 220 as an example), the deflection angle of the spray pipe 20 at this time is a maximum deflection angle.
In one embodiment, as shown in
Micro-control switch for position limitation: a micro-control switch is provided on a periphery of the driving gear 210 and/or the driven gear 220. The micro-control switch is connected to the main control circuit of the spraying apparatus, and the main control circuit is electrically connected to the drive mechanism 300. During the meshing process of the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220, when the driving gear 210 or the driven gear 220 touches or squeezes the micro-control switch, the micro-control switch can directly disconnect the power supply of the drive mechanism 300 (at this time, the micro-control switch is connected to a control circuit of the drive mechanism 300); the micro-controller can also send a disconnection signal to the main control circuit, and the main control circuit cuts off the power to the drive mechanism 300 after receiving the disconnection signal, to prevent the driven gear 220 from continuing to rotate.
Sensors for position limitation: a pressure sensor is provided on a periphery of the driving gear 210 and/or the driven gear 220. The pressure sensor is connected to the main control circuit of the spraying apparatus, and the main control circuit is electrically connected to the drive mechanism 300. The pressure sensor is connected to the main control circuit. During the meshing process of the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220, when the teeth of the driving gear 210 or the driven gear 220 touch or squeeze the pressure sensor, the resistance of the pressure sensor changes. As a result, the current passing through the pressure sensor and the voltage loaded on the pressure sensor are changed. After an active circuit monitors such changes, the voltage of the drive mechanism 300 is cut off through a trigger circuit or a disconnection circuit, preventing the spray pipe 20 from continuing to rotate.
In some embodiments, referring to
However, the design of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the positions of the hexagonal drive shaft and the hexagonal hole can be reversed, that is, the transmission mechanism 200 is provided with a hexagonal hole, and the transmission end 2012 of the spray pipe 20 is provided with a hexagonal drive shaft. In addition, the structure of the transmission part is not limited to a hexagonal transmission shaft, but can also be a transmission shaft with a rectangular cross section, a transmission shaft with a triangular cross section, and the like. In this embodiment, a stepped shaft is also arranged between the hexagonal transmission shaft and the gear, so that the stable connection between the hexagonal transmission shaft and the gear can be ensured.

After the first fixing holes are aligned with the second fixing holes, the front housing 110 and the rear housing 120 are detachably connected by screws or rivets.
Further, positioning posts 111 are arranged on and protrude from an inner wall surface of the front housing 110 close to the rear housing 120, the driving gear 210 and the driven gears are provided with mounting holes corresponding to the positioning posts 111, and the positioning posts 111 are in clearance fit with the mounting holes. The alignment of the positioning posts 111 and the mounting holes can facilitate the installation of the driving gear 210 and the driven gears.
Regarding the structure of the spray pipe 20, a detailed description will be given below with reference to
A spray pipe 20 includes a pipe body 201 having a water intake end 2011 and provided with a water spray hole 203 in its pipe wall; and a water spray groove 202 formed in the spray pipe 20 at a position corresponding to the water spray hole 203. The water spray hole 203 is in communication with the water spray groove 202, and a diameter of the water spray hole 203 is larger than a width of the water spray groove 202.
In this embodiment, the pipe body 201 exhibits a columnar shape. For the structure, reference can be made to the description of the spray pipe 20 in the above embodiments, and the description herein will focus on the shapes and positions of the spray pipe 20 and the water spray groove 202. The water spray hole 203 penetrates a groove wall of the pipe body 201 so that the water in the pipe body 201 can flow out from the water spray hole 203.
A cross section of the pipe body 201 can have many shapes, such as a circle, an ellipse, a triangle, and other polygons. A circular configuration is taken as an example. A cross section of the water spray hole 203 can have many shapes, such as a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, etc., and a circular shape is taken as an example. A cross section of the water spray groove 202 can also have many shapes, such as U-shaped, trapezoidal, V-shaped, and rectangular. In the case of a water pressure and water spray hole 203, the shape of the water spray groove 202 affects the amounted of water sprayed. The water output in a case of the V-shaped water spray groove is the smallest, the water output in a case of the trapezoidal water spray groove is medium, and the water output in a case of the rectangular water spray groove is the largest. The shape of the cross section of the water spray groove 202 is set to be one of a V-shape, a trapezoid and a rectangle, and a long base of the trapezoid is close to a groove opening. That is, an end with a larger opening corresponds to the groove opening. By setting the cross section of the water spray groove 202 in a variety of shapes, the spray pipe 20 can provide different amounts of water sprayed to adapt to different working conditions, improving the adaptability of the spray pipe 20. The water spray groove 202 is arranged in an elongated shape, and the water spray groove 202 may extend along a length direction of the pipe body 201. As an example, a length direction of the water spray groove 202 is parallel to the length direction of the pipe body 201. A bottom of the water spray groove 202 is in communication with the water spray hole 203. During the operation of the spray pipe 20, the water in the pipe body 201 passes through the water spray hole 203, then enters the water spray groove 202, and spreads and is sprayed along the length direction of the water spray groove 202. In the process of water spraying, the water flow first passes through a water spray hole 203 with a large sectional area under the action of water pressure, then through an extremely narrow region (a junction between the water spray hole 203 and the water tank, and an area at this junction is smaller than an area of the water spray hole 203), and spreads in the water spray groove 202. Such a flow process causes the water flow to form a scattered water flow on an interface, and the resulting water flow resembles a sector. A projection of the sector on the pipe body 201 is parallel to the water spray groove 202 or an extension direction of the water spray groove 202, which determines a deflection angle between the sector and the length direction of the pipe body 201. If the water spray groove 202 is parallel to the length direction of the pipe body 201, a chord length of the sector is also parallel to the pipe body 201. When a plurality of water spray holes 203 and water spray grooves 202 are arranged in the length direction of the spray pipe 20, a water wall like a water jet will be formed on an interface, so that the cleaning area of the spray pipe 20 can be greatly increased. Thus, an internal section of the dishwasher will be completely covered, to achieve a comprehensive cleaning effect.
In this embodiment, through the arrangement of the water spray holes 203 and the water spray grooves 202, under the action of water pressure, the water flow enters the pipe body 201 under the action of the water pressure, and flows in the pipe body 201. When passing through the water spray holes 203, under the action of water pressure, the water enters the water spray holes 203, and enters the water spray grooves 202 after passing through the water spray holes 203. In this process, the water flow first passes through a water spray hole 203 with a larger size and then through a water spray groove 202 with a smaller size, and spreads and is sprayed in the length direction of the water spray groove 202, so that the water flow forms a water wall like a sector after being sprayed from the water spray groove 202, to form a surface cleaning along with the rotation of the spray pipe, which significantly improve the cleaning effect of the spray pipe 20 compared with the existing linear cleaning area.
As shown in
In order to further improve the cleaning effect of the water spray hole 203 and the water spray groove 202, a ratio of a length L of the water spray groove 202 to the diameter Φ of the water spray hole 203 is greater than or equal to 2.5˜3.5, and as an example, the value of the ratio is greater than or equal to 3. The water flow enters the water spray groove 202 from the water spray hole 203. The diameter of the water spray hole 203 and the length of the water spray groove 202 are related to the change of water pressure. When the water flow enters the water spray groove 202 from the water spray hole 203 having a large area, the water pressure increases, and as the water flow spreads in the water spray groove along its length direction, the water pressure decreases. The proportional relationship between the diameter and the groove length relates to the reasonable release of water energy and affects the angle of the water jet. When L/Φ is too small, the groove length is not long enough for the spreading of water enters the water spray groove 202 from the water spray hole 203, so that a coverage angle of the water stream sprayed is reduced (the central angle of the sector becomes smaller), which is not conducive to spray washing of the spray pipe 20.
It should be noted that the water flow rate, spray angle and distance of the water spray groove 202 are positively correlated with the diameter of the water spray hole 203 within a range. The depth of the water spray hole 203 has an effect on the spray distance. A hole of a depth can convert energy of a lateral flow in the pipe into energy of a vertical flow, which is beneficial to long-distance spraying; for the same reason, a hole depth will increase a flow velocity sprayed, increasing a diffusion angle.
As shown in
In order to meet the requirements of different working conditions, different shapes of water spray grooves 202 can be arranged on the same spray pipe 20, which will be described in detail below.
A plurality of the water spray holes 203 and a plurality of the water spray grooves 202 are provided and correspondingly arranged, and the cross-sectional shapes of the plurality of water spray grooves 202 are set to be one or more kinds of a V shape, a trapezoid shape and a rectangular shape. In this embodiment, the water spray holes 203 and the water spray grooves 202 are in one-to-one correspondence. In some embodiments, one water spray groove 202 may correspond to the plurality of water spray holes 203, that is, the water spray groove 202 is a long groove, and the plurality of water spray holes 203 are arranged at the bottom of the water spray groove 202. The shape of the cross section of the water spray groove 202 can have various forms in the same spray pipe 20, that is, the angle between the groove wall surface of the water spray groove 202 and the plane where the groove opening is located can take various values. In some working conditions, the amount of water and flushing intensity required for different positions are different, which at this time can be achieved by changing the shape of the water spray groove 202 or adjusting the angle β.
In some embodiments, it is necessary to distinguish among strong, medium, and weak spraying areas to clean the objects to be cleaned with different degrees of cleanliness and improve cleaning efficiency. The cross section of the water spray groove 202 in the middle of the spray pipe 20 is rectangular or trapezoidal; and the cross sections of the water spray grooves 202 at both ends of the spray pipe 20 are trapezoidal or V-shaped. In such a case, the middle part is a strong cleaning zone, and the two ends of the spray pipe 20 are medium cleaning zones or weak cleaning zones. Thus, it is beneficial to efficiently cleaning the tableware to be cleaned with different cleanliness levels at the same time.
In some embodiments, as the water is sprayed, the water pressure at the water intake end 2011 of the spray pipe 20 is different from that at the transmission end 2012 thereof, resulting in different water spraying effects at both ends. In order to make the water spraying effects at different positions of the spray pipe 20 uniform, the cross section of the water spray groove 202 close to the water intake end 2011 of the spray pipe 20 is V-shaped, the cross section of the water spray groove 202 in the middle of the spray pipe 20 is trapezoidal, and the water spray groove 202 far away from the water intake end 2011 of the spray pipe 20 is rectangular. In this way, the water spray groove 202 farther from the water intake end 2011 can also spray a larger amount of water flow.
In order to make full and reasonable use of water energy and further improve the spraying effect, as shown in
In some embodiments, in order to further increase the spraying effect, as shown in
In the transition process, in order to avoid energy loss due to large friction and collision between the water flow and the hole wall, an inner wall of the transition segment 205 transitions from the water intake segment 204 to a groove wall of the water spray groove 202 in an arc shape. In this way, when the water flow enters the transition segment 205 from the water intake segment 204, and enters the water spray groove 202 from the transition segment 205, the water flow is smoothly guided, which is beneficial to retaining the water energy.
In order to further improve the water spraying effect of the water spray groove 202, a groove width at an intersection of the top of the transition segment 205 and the water spray groove 202 is k, and the aperture diameter d is greater than or equal to twice the k. In this embodiment, by setting the aperture diameter d to be greater than or equal to twice the groove width k, a change in the water pressure from the transition segment 205 into the water spray groove 202 can be guaranteed, the pressure difference is ensured, and the water flow can enter the water spray groove 202 more stably, reliably and efficiently, and extend and be sprayed along the length of the water spray groove 202, which is beneficial to increasing the spray distance and spray angle.
There are many ways to form the water spray groove 202. The water spray groove 202 can be formed directly on the pipe body 201 or can be formed by arranging other structures on the pipe body 201, which will be elaborated below.
The water spray groove 202 is opened on an outer side wall of the pipe body 201. The water spray groove 202 is directly opened on the outer side wall of the pipe body 201, and the water spray groove 202 extends along the length direction of the pipe body 201. This arrangement simplifies the formation process of the water spray groove 202, does not require additional components, and reduces the assembly process. At the same time, the water spray groove 202 sinks into the pipe body 201, so that external environmental factors are difficult to affect the operation of the water spray groove 202, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the water spray groove 202 in operation.
In some other embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, in order to make more reasonable use of water energy, prevent water jets from adjacent water spray grooves 202 from colliding and avoid wasting water energy, the number of water spray grooves 202 is multiple, and the water spray grooves 202 extend along the length direction of the pipe body 201. The plurality of water spray grooves 202 are arranged in an S shape along the length direction of the pipe body 201, as shown in
It should be noted that the number of water spray grooves 202 arranged in an S shape is not limited, and may be three, four, five, etc., that is, there may be only one S shape on the spray pipe 20, or a plurality of S shapes may appear at the same time. That is, a connecting line of two adjacent water spray holes 203 is neither consistent with the length direction of the pipe body 201, and nor consistent with the length direction of the water spray groove 202. With this arrangement, when the deflection angle range of the water spray groove 202 is large, the projections of the two adjacent sectorial spraying areas on the pipe body 201 are not collinear, so that the water sprayed from the two adjacent water spray grooves 202 will not intersect, avoiding the collision of the water sprayed by two adjacent water spray grooves 202 and causing water energy loss. In this way, when the deflection angle of water sprayed by each water spray groove 202 is large enough, some cleaning areas of the spray pipe 20 will undergo secondary washing, that is, during a single one-way rotation of the spray pipe 20, there will be two water walls to wash the same area, which can greatly improve the cleaning efficiency of the spray pipe 20.
It can be understood that the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in
As shown in
A distance between adjacent a first water spray hole 203 and a second water spray hole 203 is greater than 0 and is less than or equal to: h1 tan(α1/2)+h2 tan(α2/2).
Regarding the positional relationship between adjacent spray pipes, it is not only applicable to this embodiment, but also applicable to other embodiments.
Among them, α1 and α2, as well as h1 and h2, are affected by factors such as processing, manufacturing and assembling of the water spray hole 203 and the water spray groove 202, an included angle with the pipe body 201, and a distance from the water intake end 2011 of the pipe body 201. When α1=α2 and h1=h2, the distance between two adjacent water spray holes 203 is less than or equal to: 2h1 tan(α1/2) or 2h2 tan(α2/2).
By setting the distance between two adjacent water spray holes 203 in this way, it can be ensured that adjacent cleaning areas intersect, and hence the cleaning plane formed when the spray pipe 20 rotates is a continuous plane, to achieve no dead-angle cleaning.
Regarding the distance between the first water spray hole 203 and the second water spray hole 203, the actual situation has different actual parameters, and the parameters can be adjusted according to the actual disclosure. Some embodiment of the parameters are described below. In some embodiments, the distance between the first water spray hole 203 and the second water spray hole 203 is 20 mm to 30 mm. Similarly, the number of water spray holes 203 on each spray pipe 20 should also be determined according to actual conditions. In some embodiments, the number of water spray holes 203 on each spray pipe 20 is eight to ten.
In some embodiments, in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the spray pipe 20, if the total circulating water volume is M, the flow velocity of the water in the water spray holes 203 is V, the total number of water spray holes 203 is N, and the cross-sectional area of the water spray hole 203 is S, then M*V≥N*S/2. That is, M≥N*S/(2 V). When the spraying apparatus is formed, the total number N of water spray holes 203 and the cross-sectional area of the water spray hole 203 are fixed, and the total circulating water volume can be set according to the required water velocity.
Among them, V≥(N*S/2)/M, and M/N is the water spray volume of a single spray pipe. The flow velocity of V≥½ (m/s) is taken as an example.
There are many types of cleaning equipment, such as dishwashers, fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment, etc. The cleaning equipment includes an inner container 10 and a spraying apparatus. The structure of the spraying apparatus refers to the above-mentioned embodiments. Since the cleaning equipment adopts the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects caused by the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

In some embodiments, referring to
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the inner container 10 includes a plurality of tank bodies that are portioned from each other, and each of the tank bodies forms one washing zone. In this embodiment, the inner container 10 includes a first tank body 11 and a second tank body 12 that are arranged in a partitioned manner. A first washing zone is formed in the first tank body 11, and a second washing zone is formed in the second tank body 12. The water supply systems include a first water supply system 40 and a second water supply system 50. The first water supply system 40 is arranged corresponding to the first washing zone, and the second water supply system 50 is arranged corresponding to the second washing zone.
The first washing zone can be set as a normal washing zone, and the second washing zone can be set as a strong washing zone. The water supply system may be a dual waterway system, and in the dual waterway system, the strength of the first water supply system 40 and the strength of the second water supply system 50 are set differently. Therefore, partition of strong and weak zones can be realized in a single washing process, so that users can clean tableware with different degrees of dirtiness in a targeted manner.
In addition, the tableware can also be washed in different degrees through successively passing washing zones of different strengths. In one embodiment, the tableware to be cleaned can first enter the strong washing zone for washing to flush away food residues, and then enter the normal washing zone for washing to clean oil stains thoroughly.
However, the design of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the first tank body 11 and the second tank body 12 may also be arranged in communication with each other, so that the tableware can be conveniently transferred from the strong washing zone to the normal washing zone.

In one embodiment, the water supply system further includes a pressure holding pipe communicating the motor pump and the water supply pipe. A diameter of the pressure holding pipe is larger than a diameter of the water supply pipe, so that the water pressure of the water supply pipe can be more stable.
In order to meet people's needs, some control methods adapted to different working conditions will be disclosed below, and refer to the following embodiments.
A control method for a spraying apparatus is provided. The spraying apparatus includes a spray pipe 20. Several water spray holes 203 are arranged on a pipe wall of the spray pipe 20. A water flow enters the spray pipe 20 from a water intake end 2011 of the spray pipe 20 and is sprayed from a water spray hole 203 of the spray pipe 20. The control method for the spraying apparatus includes: obtain a cleaning instruction.
There are many ways to obtain the cleaning instruction. For example, a user sends a cleaning instruction through a mobile terminal or presses a button manually, or the cleaning equipment can be triggered to send the cleaning instruction automatically when a condition is satisfied during a working process. Among them, the condition may be that the washing cavity is detected as having objects to be cleaned, and there are various detection methods, such as infrared sensors, gravity sensors and so on. In some embodiments, in order to improve the control accuracy, it is possible to detect, before cleaning, whether the cleanliness of the objects to be cleaned meets the cleanliness standards of tableware.
The control method for the spraying apparatus includes: obtaining a cleaning mode according to the cleaning instruction.
The cleaning instruction can be a single start instruction or an instruction carrying mode information. When the instruction is an instruction carrying mode information, the spraying apparatus searches in a corresponding mapping table according to the corresponding mode to perform control based on parameters acquired in the mapping table. The mapping table is a preset relation table between the modes and working references of the spraying apparatus. When there is no mode information in the cleaning instruction, a detection device can detect a current working condition, or the current time can be obtained, to control the working parameters according to a detection result or control the working parameters according to the current time information. The cleaning modes corresponds to the cleaning conditions, which can be fixedly set to be strong wash, weak wash, and medium wash, or can be a cleaning mode set to improve the cleaning effect.
According to the cleaning mode, the spray pipe 20 is controlled to rotate along its axial axis within a preset rotation angle range.
The spray pipe 20 rotates along its longitudinal axis, and the axial axis of the spray pipe 20 passes through the interior of the spray pipe 20. As an example, the axial axis passes through a center of its cross section. For the preset rotation angle range, please refer to the deflection angle mentioned in the above embodiments. The preset rotation angle range is 0˜150°, and 120° is taken as an example for description. As an example, a plane passing through a center line of a circle and the water spray hole 203 bisects the rotation angle range, and a range of rotation angle of 60° is on each side of the plane, that is, the water spray hole 203 can be rotated in two ranges of 60° on the left and on the right, or rather an included angle between an orientation of the water spray hole 203 and the plane can be any value from −60° to 60° during the working process.
In this embodiment, the cleaning instruction is first obtained, then the cleaning mode is obtained according to the cleaning instruction, and the spray pipe 20 is controlled to rotate along its axial axis within a preset rotation angle range according to the cleaning mode, so that the rotation of the spray pipe 20 is limited to the preset range, avoiding idle work of the spray pipe 20 (that is, the water sprayed by the spray pipe 20 is not sprayed on the objects to be cleaned or a designated washing zone), and improving the cleaning efficiency of the spray pipe 20. Since the spray pipe 20 is configured to rotate along its axial axis, the space required for the rotation of the spray pipe 20 is very small, and the phenomenon of jamming will not easily occur, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the spray pipe 20. For a non-circular washing cavity, the spray pipes 20 can be arranged according to the shape of the washing cavity. Compared with the water spray of the rotating spray arm, the self-rotating water spray of the spray pipe 20 is beneficial to increasing the coverage area and cleaning dead corners, to improve the cleaning effect.
The process of washing the objects to be cleaned includes several stages. Much dirt exists at the first stage. At this time, high-frequency washing is required to clean most of the dirt, leaving only the dirt that is more difficult to clean. At the second the stage, for the dirt that is more difficult to clean, continuous long-term washing is required. For the dirt that is more difficult to clean, continuous long-term washing is more conducive to improving the cleaning effect. In one embodiment, the step that the spray pipe 20 is controlled to rotate within the preset angle range according to the cleaning mode includes: rotating the spray pipe 20 at a first speed within first preset duration since the spray pipe 20 starts working; and rotating the spray pipe 20 at a second speed within second preset duration after the first preset duration, in which the first speed is greater than the second speed.
The rotation speed of the spray pipe 20 is 10˜60 r/min (revolution per minute, that is, the number of revolutions in one minute), and 10˜40 r/min is taken as an example. During the first preset duration at the beginning of cleaning, the first preset duration lasts 5˜10 minutes as an example, the spray pipe 20 rotates at a first speed, and the first speed is 40 r/min as an example; during the second preset duration that lasts 6˜8 minutes for example, the spray pipe 20 rotates at a speed of 20 r/min. A large amount of dirt is first cleared by high-frequency rotation and then dirt that is more difficult to clean is cleared by long-term washing, so that the cleaning effect of the spraying apparatus can be improved.
In some embodiments, in order to improve the cleaning effect, the preset rotation angle range is equally divided into N cleaning zones in an angular aspect. The step of controlling the spray pipe 20 to rotate within the preset rotation angle range according to the cleaning mode includes: obtaining a current cleaning zone corresponding to the spray pipe 20; acquiring preset spray duration at a current location according to the current cleaning zone; and controlling the spray pipe 20 to be deflected to a next cleaning zone after the preset spray duration in the current cleaning zone.
In this embodiment, the rotation angle range is first divided into a plurality of cleaning zones. The range of each cleaning zone is determined by a rotation angle. The range of each cleaning zone can be the same or different, and can be set according to the actual situations. For example, the rotation angle range is 120°, and a plurality of cleaning zones are provided. The rotation angle range of 120° is divided into 30 equal parts for example, and each equal part corresponds to one cleaning zone, and a central angle corresponding to a range of each cleaning zone is 4°.
The spray duration of the spray pipe 20 in each cleaning zone can be the same or different according to actual needs. For example, the spray duration of each cleaning zone is the same and lasts 4-6 seconds (e.g., 5 seconds). When the spray duration of each cleaning zone is not necessarily the same, it is first necessary to obtain a current position of the spray pipe 20, i.e., the corresponding cleaning zone or the deflection angle, and then the accurate cleaning duration is acquired based on the angle information or the information on the cleaning zone. In one embodiment, the angle range and position included in each cleaning zone, and the corresponding cleaning duration can be pre-stored in a storage device of the spraying apparatus in the form of a mapping table. After the spray pipe 20 stays for a period of time corresponding to the corresponding cleaning zone, the spray pipe continues to rotate and rotate to the next cleaning zone to perform cleaning in the next cleaning zone.
In the above cleaning process, it can be understood that when cleaning a cleaning zone, the spray pipe 20 can be controlled to rotate or stand still according to the actual situations. In some embodiments, the spray pipe 20 can be controlled to shift back and forth within a small cleaning zone. This situation usually occurs when a cleaning range of a single cleaning position of the spray pipe 20 cannot cover the entire cleaning zone.
In some embodiments, in order to ensure the cleaning effect, considering that the deflection angle of the spray pipe 20 is different, the water delivery distance and the cleaning intensity of the spray pipe 20 will change. A cleaning zone corresponding to the water spray hole 203 in a vertically upward direction is a first cleaning zone, and within the preset deflection angle range, a cleaning zone corresponding to a position where the angle between a depth direction of the water spray hole 203 and the vertical direction is the largest is a second cleaning zone.
The preset spray duration corresponding to the cleaning zone gradually increases from the first cleaning zone to the second cleaning zone.
In this embodiment, the parameters of the above embodiment are taken as an example for further illustration. For example, an angler range covered by the cleaning zone in the vertically upward direction (i.e., the first cleaning zone) is −2˜2°, then an angler range covered by the second cleaning zone (two zones with the largest deflection angle) is 56˜60° or −56˜−60°. There are many ways to increase the spray duration, such as increasing linearly, increasing according to a preset curve, and the like. In this embodiment, the spray duration for each cleaning zone is increased by 0.05 to 0.3 seconds, for example, by 0.1 second. If the length of stay in the first cleaning zone is 4 seconds, the spray duration in the cleaning zone adjacent to the first cleaning zone is 4.1 seconds, so calculated, the spray duration in the second cleaning zone is 4+15*0.1 second, which is 5.5 seconds. In this embodiment, the spray duration is increased when the deflection angle is large, to ensure the cleaning effect of each cleaning zone, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect of the spraying apparatus.
In some embodiments, in order to improve the working stability of the spray pipe 20, the step of controlling the spray pipe 20 to rotate within the preset rotation angle range according to the cleaning mode includes: obtaining a preset deflection speed according to a current cleaning mode; and rotating the spray pipe 20 reciprocally at the preset deflection speed within the preset rotation angle range.
In this embodiment, the deflection speed serves as a working parameter of the spray pipe 20, which corresponds to the cleaning mode. The working conditions involved in different cleaning modes are different, and different deflection speeds are also required, which is not limited herein and is 10˜40 r/min for example. In the range of −60˜60°, the spray pipe rotates differently, deflecting from 0° in the vertically upward direction to a position of 60°, then rotating from the position of 60° to 0°, then to a position of −60°, and so on. This arrangement makes the rotation rule of the spray pipe 20 very simple and the operation of the spray pipe 20 very stable.
In some embodiments, in order to obtain an initial position of the spray pipe 20 more accurately, and ensure the normal operation of the spraying apparatus, the spraying apparatus further includes a driving gear 210 and a driven gear 220, the driving gear 210 is connected to a drive device, and the driven gear 220 is connected to the spray pipe 20. A position detection device is arranged on the driving gear 210 and/or the driven gear 220.
Before the step of controlling the spray pipe 20 to rotate within the preset rotation angle range according to the cleaning mode, the control method further includes: detecting a current deflection angle of the spray pipe 20; comparing the deflection angle with a preset initial angle; and adjusting the deflection angle of the spray pipe 20 when a difference between the current deflection angle and the preset initial angle is greater than zero or less than zero, to make the difference between the current deflection angle and the preset initial angle be zero.
In this embodiment, the initial position is 0 degree when the water spray hole 203 of the spray pipe 20 is oriented vertically upward. There are many ways to detect the current deflection angle of the spray pipe 20, which can be realized through a mechanical structure, or through a sensor or a micro-control switch. That is, the detection device can be a mechanical limiting mechanism, or a pressure sensor, an infrared sensor, an optical sensor or micro-control switch, etc.
The mechanical detection will be first introduced. A limiting block is arranged on a peripheral side of the driving gear 210 and/or the driven gear 220. When the teeth abut against the limiting block, relative rotation of the driving gear 210 and the driven gear 220 stops. The limiting block can be arranged at a position corresponding to the initial position, or at a maximum position of the preset deflection angle range. According to the parameters in the above embodiments, it can be arranged at 0°, 60°, or −60°. The stability of the mechanical detection is very reliable.
The micro-control switch is arranged on a peripheral side of the driving gear 210 and/or the driven gear 220. When the driving gear 210 meshes with the driven gear 220, they squeeze the micro-control switch, and the micro-control switch sends a position signal to a main control circuit of the spraying apparatus. The micro-control switch can be arranged in many positions, for example positions of 0°, 60°, or −60°. Pressure sensors, optical sensors and the like can directly detect the current deflection angle of the spray pipe 20 to directly obtain the deflection angle. Micro-control switches and sensors can get the current deflection angle, which can respond quickly.
After being obtained, the current deflection angle is compared with the preset initial angle. For example, the initial angle is 0°. In some embodiments, the initial position can be set to a non-zero degree, such as 30°, 15°, −15. °, −30° and etc. When the current angle differs from the preset initial angle by 15°, the spray pipe 20 can be deflected by 15° by the drive motor.
It should be noted that the relationship between the deflection angle and deflection speed of the drive motor and the spray pipe 20 will be described by an example below. In this embodiment, the motor adopts a stepping motor, and the deflection speed of the spray pipe 20 is determined by a pulse frequency of the drive motor. The higher the pulse frequency is, the greater the rotation speed of the spray pipe 20 is. The operating angle of the spray pipe 20 is determined by the number of pulses. Different pulse numbers correspond to different operating angles, that is, different deflection angles. The greater the number of pulses is, the larger the deflection angle is (during a single-pass drive). The rotation speed and rotation position of the spray pipe 20 can be controlled by controlling the pulse frequency and the number of pulses of the drive motor.
