Um bei wasserführenden Haushaltsgeräten, wie beispielsweise Geschirrspülmaschinen zu verhindern, dass das Leitungssystem, in dem Spülflotte umgewälzt wird, durch Schmutzpartikel verschmutzt wird, wird ein Filtersystem eingesetzt, das ein Grobsieb, ein Feinsieb und ein Mikrosieb umfassen kann. Dabei dient das Grobsieb dazu, Schmutzpartikel zurückzuhalten, die zu einer Blockade der Laugenpumpe führen können. Mit einem Feinsieb werden Partikel mit einer Partikelgröße größer ca. 1 mm und mit einem Mikrosieb werden Partikel mit einer Partikelgröße größer ca. 0,15 mm zurückgehalten.In order to prevent water in household appliances, such as dishwashers, that the conduit system is circulated in the wash liquor is polluted by dirt particles, a filter system is used, which may include a coarse filter, a fine sieve and a micro sieve. The coarse screen is used to retain dirt particles that can lead to a blockage of the drain pump. With a fine sieve, particles with a particle size greater than approx. 1 mm are retained and with a micro sieve particles with a particle size greater than approx. 0.15 mm are retained.
Ein wasserführendes Haushaltsgerät wie z.B. eine Geschirrspülmaschine weist eine Laugenpumpe auf, mit der am Ende eines Spülgangs verschmutzte Spülflotte aus dem Geschirrspüler heraus in ein hausseitiges Abwasserentsorgungssystem gefördert werden kann. Derartige Laugenpumpen sind derart ausgelegt, dass sie größere Partikelgrößen ungehindert fördern können und es zu keiner Blockade der Laugenpumpe kommt. Daher sind Laugenpumpen derart angeordnet, dass verschmutzte Spülflotte bei Abpumpen nur grob gefiltert wird.A water-conducting household appliance such. a dishwashing machine has a drain pump, with which at the end of a wash cycle soiled wash liquor can be conveyed out of the dishwasher into a house-side wastewater disposal system. Such lye pumps are designed so that they can promote larger particle sizes unhindered and there is no blockage of the drain pump. Therefore, lye pumps are arranged in such a way that polluted rinsing liquor is only roughly filtered during pumping.
Ferner weist eine Geschirrspülmaschine eine Umwälzpumpe auf, mit der während eines Reinigungsvorgangs Spülflotte umgewälzt werden kann, d.h., sich im Pumpensumpf einer Geschirrspülmaschine sammelnde Flüssigkeit wird mittels der Umwälzpumpe durch ein Hydrauliksystem im Inneren des Spülbehälters angeordneten Sprüharmen zugeführt, mit denen eine gleichmäßige Beaufschlagung des Spülguts mit Spülflotte erfolgt. Die Sprüharme weisen verhältnismäßig kleine Öffnungen auf, sodass es erforderlich ist, die umgewälzte Spülflotte durch das Fein- und Mikrosieb zu führen, damit auch kleinste Partikel zurückgehalten werden und die Austrittsöffnungen der Sprüharme nicht verstopfen können. Entsprechend ist die Umwälzpumpe bezüglich der Partikelgrößentoleranz ausgebildet.Furthermore, a dishwasher has a circulation pump with which rinsing liquor can be circulated during a cleaning operation, ie, in the sump of a dishwasher collecting liquid is supplied by the circulation pump by a hydraulic system in the interior of the Spülbehälters arranged spray arms, with which a uniform loading of the dishes with Rinsing carried out. The spray arms have relatively small openings, so it is necessary to guide the circulated rinsing liquor through the fine and micro sieve, so that even the smallest particles are retained and the outlet openings of the spray arms can not clog. Accordingly, the circulation pump is designed with respect to the particle size tolerance.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, ein wasserführendes Haushaltsgerät, insbesondere eine Geschirrspül- oder Waschmaschine, bereitzustellen, deren Filter eine gesteigerte Zuverlässigkeit aufweisen.The object of the invention is to provide a water-conducting domestic appliance, in particular a dishwasher or washing machine, whose filters have an increased reliability.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen offenbart.The object of the invention is solved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are disclosed in the subclaims.
Die Erfindung geht aus von einem wasserführendes Haushaltsgerät, insbesondere Geschirrspül- oder Waschmaschine, mit einem Hydraulikkreislauf, in dem Spülflüssigkeit umwälzbar ist und in dem wenigstens ein Zusatzfilter zur Filterung umgewälzter Spülflotte vorgesehen ist. Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass in dem Hydraulikkreislauf wenigstens ein Zusatzfilter zur Filterung umgewälzte Spülflotte vorgesehen ist, das in einem Bereich des Hydraulikkreislaufs angeordnet ist, in dem umgewälzte Spülflotte eine Rotation aufweist. Die Rotation der umgewälzten Spülflotte bzw. ihre turbulente Strömung bewirkt dabei, das sich die Filterfläche des Zusatzfilter nicht durch Filterkuchenbildung zusetzt, sondern einen ungehinderter Durchtritt von Spülflüssigkeit bzw. Spülflotte gewährleistet ist. Dabei kann es sich um eine vollständige Rotation oder nur um eine abschnittweise kreis- bzw. bogenförmige Dreh- bzw. Umlenkbewegung handeln, die bspw. durch Umlenkmittel wie Leitbleche oder eine Kanalführung hervorgerufen wird.The invention is based on a water-conducting domestic appliance, in particular dishwashing or washing machine, with a hydraulic circuit in which rinsing liquid can be recirculated and in which at least one additional filter is provided for filtering circulated rinsing liquor. The solution according to the invention is characterized in that at least one additional filter for filtering circulated rinsing liquor is provided in the hydraulic circuit, which is arranged in a region of the hydraulic circuit in which recirculated rinsing fluid has a rotation. The rotation of the circulating rinsing liquor or its turbulent flow in this case causes the filter surface of the additional filter is not clogged by forming a filter cake, but an unhindered passage of rinsing liquid or rinsing liquor is guaranteed. This may be a complete rotation or only a partially circular or arcuate rotary or deflection movement, which is caused, for example, by deflecting means such as baffles or a channel guide.
Hierzu sind erfindungsgemäß in dem Bereich des Hydraulikkreislaufs eine Rotation umgewälzter Spülflotte erzeugende Mittel vorgesehen. Es kann sich hierbei um ortsfeste Leitbleche oder -schaufeln handeln, die strömender Spülflüssigkeit eine Rotation aufprägen. Jedoch ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die eine Rotation umgewälzter Spülflotte erzeugende Mittel eine Umwälzpumpe zur Umwälzung von Spülflüssigkeit umfassen.For this purpose, according to the invention, a rotation of circulated rinsing liquor generating means is provided in the area of the hydraulic circuit. These may be stationary baffles or vanes that impart rotation to flowing rinse liquid. However, it is provided according to the invention that the means for generating a rotation of circulated rinsing agent comprise a circulating pump for circulating rinsing liquid.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass in der Umwälzpumpe das Zusatzfilter angeordnet ist. Gegebenenfalls kann somit die üblicher Weise vorgesehene Filterkombination in der Geschirrspülmaschine um den Zusatzfilter erweitert werden. Alternativ kann auch auf einen, im Pumpentopf angeordneten Filter verzichtet werden, wodurch der Pumpentopf kleiner dimensionierbar ist und damit auch die zu erwärmende Totwassermenge im Pumpentopf vorteilig reduzierbar ist.According to the invention, it is provided that the additional filter is arranged in the circulation pump. Optionally, thus the usual way provided filter combination can be extended in the dishwasher to the additional filter. Alternatively, it is also possible to dispense with a filter arranged in the pump pot, as a result of which the pump pot can be made smaller and thus also the amount of dead water to be heated in the pump pot can advantageously be reduced.
Dem Zusatzfilter ist in Strömungsrichtung der Spülflüssigkeit die im Pumpentopf angeordnete Siebkombination vorgelagert, die zumindest eine Grob- und/oder Feinfiltration vornehmen kann. Die dem Zusatzfilter zugeführte Spülflüssigkeit ist somit bereits vorgeklärt, so dass der Zusatzfilter als ein Mikrofilter ausführbar ist, der speziell zur Abfilterung von im Wasser fein dispergierten Schmutzpartikeln ausgelegt ist.The additional filter is preceded by the sieve combination arranged in the sump in the flow direction of the rinsing liquid, which can carry out at least one coarse and / or fine filtration. The rinsing liquid supplied to the additional filter is thus already precleared, so that the additional filter can be embodied as a microfilter, which is specially designed for filtering off dirt particles which are finely dispersed in the water.
Das Pumpengehäuse der Umwälzpumpe weist erfindungsgemäß einen Schaufelradraum mit einem die Spülflüssigkeit fördernden Schaufelrad und einen stromab davon angeordneten Druckraum auf, in den die vom Schaufelrad geförderte Spülflüssigkeit in hoher Strömungsgeschwindigkeit einströmt. Der Druckraum kann in Strömungsrichtung in einen Strömungskanal übergehen, der die Spülflüssigkeit zu einem auslassseitigen Druckstutzen der Umwälzpumpe führt. Erfindungsgemäß ist der Zusatzfilter im Druckraum angeordnet, wodurch dessen Filteroberfläche auf Grund der hohen Turbulenzen der in den Druckraum einströmenden Spülflüssigkeit ständig freigespült wird und damit nicht von Filterrückständen zugesetzt werden kann.According to the invention, the pump housing of the circulating pump has a paddle wheel space with a paddle wheel conveying the rinsing fluid and a pressure chamber arranged downstream thereof, into which the rinsing fluid delivered by the paddle wheel flows in a high flow rate. The pressure chamber can transition in the flow direction into a flow channel, which leads the rinsing liquid to an outlet-side discharge nozzle of the circulation pump. According to the additional filter is arranged in the pressure chamber, whereby the filter surface is constantly flushed due to the high turbulence of the inflowing into the pressure chamber rinsing liquid and thus can not be added by filter residues.
Der Druckraum erstreckt sich erfindungsgemäß ringförmig um eine Mittelachse der Umwälzpumpe. Bei einer entsprechenden Strömungsausrichtung kann die Spülflüssigkeit den Druckraum in einer Rotationsbewegung, d. h. tangential zu einer den Druckraum begrenzenden Pumpengehäusewand, durchströmen. Die Strömungsrichtung kann entsprechend durch ein erfindungsgemäß zwischen dem Schaufelradraum und dem Druckraum geschaltetes Strömungsleitelement, etwa ein Leitrad, entsprechend in Umfangsrichtung ausgelegt werden. Eine solche kreisförmige Querströmung im Druckraum gewährleistet eine erhöhte Verweildauer der Spülflüssigkeit im Druckraum sowie eine vollständige Überströmung der gesamten Filteroberfläche des Zusatzfilters.The pressure chamber according to the invention extends annularly around a central axis of the circulation pump. With a corresponding flow orientation, the rinsing liquid can move the pressure space in a rotational movement, i. H. tangential to a pressure chamber bounding the pump housing wall, flow through. The flow direction can be correspondingly designed by a according to the invention between the Schaufelradraum and the pressure chamber flow guide, such as a stator, according to the circumferential direction. Such a circular cross-flow in the pressure chamber ensures an increased residence time of the rinsing liquid in the pressure chamber and a complete overflow of the entire filter surface of the additional filter.
Für eine hohe Filterleistung ist eine vollständige Durchströmung der umgewälzten Spülflüssigkeit durch den Zusatzfilter zu gewährleisten. Hierzu kann der durchströmte Druckraum vom Zusatzfilter erfindungsgemäß in eine Einlasskammer, in der die Spülflüssigkeit einströmt, und in eine Auslasskammer aufgeteilt werden, aus der die Spülflüssigkeit zu einem auslassseitigen Druckstutzen der Umwälzpumpe strömt. Strömungstechnisch günstig ist es, wenn die Einlasskammer des Druckraums mit Bezug auf die Mittelachse der Umwälzpumpe radial außerhalb der Auslasskammer des Druckraums liegt. Die Spülflüssigkeit kann somit in Rotationsbewegung entlang einer radialen Außenwandung des Pumpengehäuses den Zusatzfilter überströmen.For a high filter performance, a complete flow through the circulating rinsing liquid through the additional filter is to be ensured. For this purpose, the flow-through pressure chamber from the additional filter according to the invention in an inlet chamber in which the rinsing liquid flows, and are divided into an outlet chamber from which the rinsing liquid flows to an outlet side discharge nozzle of the circulation pump. In terms of flow technology, it is favorable if the inlet chamber of the pressure chamber is located radially outside the outlet chamber of the pressure chamber with respect to the center axis of the circulation pump. The flushing liquid can thus flow over the additional filter in rotational movement along a radial outer wall of the pump housing.
Zur weiteren Steigerung der Filterleistung ist es von Vorteil, wenn der Zusatzfilter zumindest ein, vorzugsweise scheibenförmiges Filtermittel aufweist, dass auf einem hohl zylindrischen Filtermittel-Träger sitzt, der den Druckraum in die bereits erwähnten Einlass- und Auslasskammer aufteilt. Für eine möglichst große Filteroberfläche kann das auf dem Filtermittel-Träger vorgesehene Filtermittel in die Einlasskammer einragen. Der Außenrand des Filtermittels ist hierbei bevorzugt jedoch nicht in Anlage mit einer radial gegenüberliegenden Pumpengehäuse-Wandung, sondern von dieser über einen Strömungsspalt beabstandet, um eine größtmögliche Umströmung des Filtermittels zu gewährleisten.To further increase the filter performance, it is advantageous if the additional filter has at least one, preferably disc-shaped filter means that on a hollow cylindrical filter medium carrier sits, which divides the pressure chamber in the aforementioned inlet and outlet chamber. For the largest possible filter surface, the filter medium provided on the filter medium carrier can protrude into the inlet chamber. However, the outer edge of the filter means is preferably not in contact with a radially opposite pump housing wall, but spaced therefrom by a flow gap in order to ensure the greatest possible flow around the filter medium.
Bevorzugt sitzen eine Anzahl von über Filterräume beabstandete Filtermittel auf dem hohlzylindrischen Filtermittel-Träger. Die scheibenförmigen Filtermittel erstrecken sich daher zusammen mit diesen Filterräumen ringförmig um die Mittelachse der Umwälzpumpe innerhalb des Druckraums. Bei einer in Rotationsbewegung durch den Druckraum geführten Flüssigkeitsströmung erfolgt daher innerhalb dieser Filterräume eine großflächige Überströmung der Filteroberflächen, wodurch die Filteroberflächen ständig freigespült bleiben und Filterrückstände die Filteroberflächen nicht zusetzen können. Die Reinigung des Zusatzfilters, d. h. die Reinigung der dem Zusatzfilter vorgelagerten Einlasskammer kann durch eine Strömungsumkehr bzw. einen Rückspülen von Spülflüssigkeit erfolgen, wodurch die Filterrückstände in den Pumpentopf rückgeführt werden. Alternativ können die sich an einer Seitenwand des Druckraumes sammelnden Filterrückstände über einen separaten, ventilgesteuerten Kanal in den Pumpentopf abgeleitet werden, von wo sie mittels einer Laugenpumpe in das Abwassersystem geleitet werden können. Zur Unterstützung einer Abtragung von, die Filteroberflächen der Filtermittel zusetzenden Rückstände kann in den oben erwähnten Filterräumen zumindest ein frei bewegbarer Reinigungskörper vorgesehen sein, der durch die kreisförmige Querströmung der Spülflüssigkeit frei in den Filterräumen bewegbar ist.Preferably, a number of filter media spaced filter media sit on the hollow cylindrical filter media carrier. The disc-shaped filter means therefore extend together with these filter spaces in an annular manner about the center axis of the circulation pump within the pressure chamber. In a guided in rotational movement through the pressure chamber liquid flow therefore takes place within these filter chambers, a large surface overflow of the filter surfaces, whereby the filter surfaces are constantly flushed and filter residues can not clog the filter surfaces. The cleaning of the additional filter, d. H. the cleaning of the additional filter upstream inlet chamber can be done by a flow reversal or a backwashing of rinsing liquid, whereby the filter residues are returned to the sump. Alternatively, the filter residues collecting on a side wall of the pressure chamber can be discharged into the pump pot via a separate, valve-controlled channel, from where they can be conducted into the sewage system by means of a drain pump. To support a removal of, the filter surfaces zusetzenenden filter residues can be provided in the above-mentioned filter spaces at least one freely movable cleaning body, which is freely movable in the filter chambers by the circular cross-flow of the rinsing liquid.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist dem Druckraum der Umwälzpumpe ein Heizelement zur Erwärmung der Spülflüssigkeit zugeordnet. In der Druckkammer ist somit nicht nur der Zusatzfilter angeordnet sondern wird darüber hinaus in Doppelfunktion auch die Spülflüssigkeit erwärmt. Insbesondere auf Grund der hohen Turbulenzen der mit hoher Strömungsgeschwindigkeit in den Druckraum einströmenden Spülflüssigkeit wird die im Hydraulikkreislauf umgewälzte Spülflüssigkeit im Druckraum beschleunigt erwärmt.In a preferred embodiment, the pressure chamber of the circulation pump is assigned a heating element for heating the rinsing liquid. In the pressure chamber thus not only the additional filter is arranged but also in dual function beyond heats the rinsing liquid. In particular, due to the high turbulence of the high flow rate flowing into the pressure chamber rinsing liquid, the circulating in the hydraulic circuit rinsing liquid is heated accelerated in the pressure chamber.
