Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a conveyor type dishwashing machine (also known as a "tunnel dishwasher”).
  • the invention relates to a professional and/or industrial conveyor type dishwashing machine (to be used, for example, in restaurants, hotels, nursing homes, hospitals, etc.), in which the objects to be washed go through some areas sequentially, said areas being constituted by one or more pre-washing zones, one or more washing zones, one or more rinse zones and one or more drying zones.
  • the known professional dishwashers usually employ one or more washing nozzles, which are arranged within a washing chamber or tank and which are connected to some pumps for supplying the water coming from the water plant, one or more fixed, sliding or rotating baskets or shelves for placing the tools to be washed and one or more removable trays, which contain detergents, rinse agents and/or other cleaning and/or sanitizing agents.
  • a conveyor-type dishwashing machine having the technical features of the preamble of the enclosed claim 1 is known from DE102011083179A1 .
  • the potable water is loaded in the pre-washing tanks L2, in the washing tanks L1 and in the rinsing tanks R, starting from the rinsing zone R where the injector 10 is placed.
  • the water goes through the rinsing zone, the pre-rinsing tanks VR1, the washing tanks V1 and the pre-washing tanks V2 by means a decanting system.
  • the injector 10 fills the pre-rinsing tank VR1 and when the water has reached a certain level within the pre-rinsing tank VR1 begins to fill the washing tank V1; when two or more washing tanks are provided, said washing tanks, being connected by means of said decanting system, are filled one after the other up to the cold pre-washing tank V2.
  • water decanting occurs in a direction opposite to the direction of transport of the dishes; said decanting phase allows for regenerating the washing tank V1 and the pre-washing tank V2 with the water introduced into the dishwasher in the rinsing zone R.
  • the dishes that are put into the dishwasher firstly go through a cold pre-washing area or zone L2 having a washing tank V2, within which said dishes are wet, by means of the washing pump PL and the arms 6, with a recirculation liquid (water) at a temperature of about 45°C.
  • said pre-washing phase is performed when it is expected that the above mentioned food residues can remain on dishes.
  • the liquid (water) coming from the washing zones (for example L1) which is at a temperature above 45°C and which therefore raises the temperature of the liquid contained in the pre-washing tank V2, regularly flows into the cold pre-washing tank V2, which is equipped with a surface filter F2.
  • low temperature water which is supplied from the mains, is entered, for example through the injector 13, into the dishwasher by means of suitable mains filters F1, solenoid valves EL1, EL2, EL4, and flow switches FL.
  • the dishes are conveyed into one or more washing areas or zones L1, each equipped with a special tank V1 with a surface filter F2, where they are wet, through the washing pump PL and by means of the arms 5, with recirculation liquid (water) in which a cleansing substance is added; in the washing zones L1 the temperature of the liquid is always preferably greater than 50°C.
  • the dishes are then passed through a rinsing area or zone R, where the cleansing substance or detergent is removed; the rinsing phase takes place by wetting the dishes, by means of the pre-rinsing pump P1 and a possible rinsing pump (which can be a proportional-type pump) P2 (which takes water from an intermediate or break tank 12) and by means of the arms 2 of a first pre-rinsing phase, the possible arms 3 of a second pre-rinsing phase and the arms 1 of a final rinsing phase.
  • P1 pre-rinsing pump
  • P2 which takes water from an intermediate or break tank 12
  • the pre-rinsing arms 2, 3 are fed with a recirculation liquid coming from the tank VR1 of the pre-rinsing area PR, while the rinsing arms 1 are fed with mains water with added rinsing agent at a temperature of about 85°C.
  • the liquid is sent into the discharge conduit SC, possibly by means of the discharge valve SV or through a drain pump.
  • the pre-washing liquid has to maintain a temperature below 45°C, in order to make an efficient removal of food residues, low temperature water coming from the water mains is usually entered, through a special injector, into the pre-washing zone.
  • the above procedure causes a considerable consumption of water, which, combined with the significant consumption of electric energy which is necessary for supplying the drying system, determines an obvious drawback for an efficient use of the dishwashing machine.
  • the conveyor type dishwashing machine which is the object of the present invention, allows to efficiently wash the dishes and has, at the same time, very low consumptions of water, electric energy and cleansing agents, with respect to the known conveyor type dishwashing machines which are still in use.
  • the dishwashing machine according to the invention has a very low consumption of water and energy, with respect to the prior art, for equal loading and washing cycles, and still obtains a good washing result, thanks to the extended time action of the water and the cleansing agents or detergents.
  • said machine comprises:
  • the water passes from the rinsing zones R into the different tanks VR1, V1 and V2 through a decanting system, so that said tanks being filled one after the other up to the pre-washing tank V2; in the same manner, during operation of the dishwashing machine, a liquid decanting occurs in a direction opposite to the passage direction of the dishes, so as to regenerate the washing tank V1 and the pre-washing tank V2 with the water used during the rinsing phase.
  • the dishwashing machine of the present invention it is possible to add a further pre-rinsing zone PR, with pre-rinsing arms 3 and a respective collection tank VR2, which uses, for rinsing the dishes, the pressure of the pump P1, which thus supplies simultaneously the pre-rinsing arms 2 and the pre-rinsing arms 3.
  • the additional pre-rinsing zone or area PR that uses the arms 3 can have an upstream subdivider or tap 11, which provides for delivering a determined amount of liquid to the arms 3; moreover, always using the above mentioned decanting system, the liquid which is contained into the tank VR2 (water + rinsing agents + detergent residues) may be added, in the washing tank V1, to the liquid coming from the tank VR1, as well as can be directly sent into the discharge conduit SC.
  • the liquid which is contained into the tank VR2 water + rinsing agents + detergent residues
  • Said liquid portion to be sent into the pre-washing tank V2 is carried out as follows: the pump P1, equipped with a relative flow switch FL, which feeds the pre-rinsing arms 2 (and possibly the additional arms 3), has a further supply branch or duct 16, possibly equipped with a restrictor 17, which is able to reduce the liquid amount suitable for regenerating the different washing tanks V1 and pre-washing tanks V2, by sending part of the liquid contained in the tank VR1 into the pre-washing area or zone L2 and, therefore, into the pre-washing tank V2, via the conduit 18 and the injector 4 (such a detergent saving system is known as "detergent economizer" or "ecodet"); furthermore, if the pre-washing area or zone L2 is not present, the liquid contained in the branch 16 and in the duct 18 is sent to the discharge conduit SC.
  • the pump P1 equipped with a relative flow switch FL, which feeds the pre-rinsing arms 2 (and possibly the additional arms 3)
  • the liquid in excess in pre-rinsing area PR which comes from the collection tanks VR1 and/or VR2, depending on the configuration of the rinsing zone R, and which is sent into the branch 16, is used to pre-heat the incoming air in the dishes drying zone or area; therefore, the liquid in excess, before arriving into the duct 18, into the injector 4 or into the discharge conduit SC, is sent over a heat exchanger 7 and transfers the heat to the air (coming also from the outside and then conveyed to the fan 8 and heated by the resistors 9a), which is used for drying.
  • the advantage is therefore double, as you get both a pre-heating of the incoming air in the drying zone and a reduction in temperature of the water which is sent sent in the discharge conduit SC or in the pre-washing area L2.
  • the above mentioned technical solution also allows to achieve many other advantages, such as to provide a soaking cold, entering the liquid coming from the heat exchanger 7 into the collection tank V2 of the pre-washing area L2 through the injector 4.
  • drying air taken from the outside, when it exits from the heat exchanger 7, is also dehumidified before being sucked by the fan 8.
  • the power of the resistors 9a can be significantly decreased, with respect to the prior art, since the air sucked by the fan 8 is already pre-heated.
