  • the collecting pot of the dishwasher has for this purpose a fresh water inlet, which is fluidically connected to the fresh water discharge point, for example by means of a hose. Once the collecting pot is filled with sufficient fresh water for proper operation of the circulation pump, the circulation pump is put into operation, as a result of which the spray arms of the spraying device are charged with washing liquor.

  • the construction according to the invention therefore ensures that the leakage opening is only opened when a fresh water discharge takes place below a certain pressure level, which is typically the case when introducing fresh water for flushing through the leachate and / or chloride line.
  • a pressure which is above this pressure level is formed in the circulated washing liquor, which leads to an automatic closure of the leakage opening.
  • the embodiment of the invention also has the advantage of a very short distance in the case of flushing.
  • the circulating pump discontinued fresh water passes directly to the fluidic connection between the circulation pump and the spray arm, so that then on the inventively provided leakage point a comparatively short return flow is given in the collecting pot.
  • the inventive design is suitable not only for the case of flushing the lye and / or chloride route, but also for other applications, according to the shortest possible route is preferred.

  • the suction-side connection to the circulating pump is preferably formed in the region of the suction mouth of the circulating pump, that is, the suction mouth side.
  • the "suction-mouth-side" design of the fresh-water inlet in the sense of the invention means that a fresh-water inlet takes place directly into the circulating pump without the incoming fresh water entering other regions of the collection pot.
  • a suction-suction-side design in this sense is present, in particular, when the fresh-water inlet is formed within the fluidic connection between the collecting pot and the circulating pump.
  • the pump housing of the circulation pump, the fluidic connection to the spray arm and the collecting pot of fresh water flows through, which leads to the removal of any lye and / or chloride residues.
  • the collecting pot drain pump which arrives in the collecting pot fresh water is pumped, resulting in a cleaning of the pump housing of the drain pump and the fluidic connection between collecting pot and drain pump.
  • the embodiment of the invention allows a complete flushing of the lye and / or chloride route, ie the circulation pump, the collecting pot and leading from the circulation pump via the collecting pot leading to the drain line path, so that there located residual fluids can be expelled as much as possible, so that no unwanted alkali and / or Chloridverschleppung takes place in a subsequent washing program.
  • an admission of the circulation pump with fresh water via the suction side takes place, whereby a flushing does not take place without pumpless, but rather in pump operation. That of the circulation pump on the pressure side dispensed fresh water is not delivered via the spray nozzles of the pump connected to the circulation pump spray arm, but via a leakage opening.
  • the leakage opening is either provided by the spray arm or it is formed in the fluidic connection between the circulation pump and the spray arm.
  • the embodiment of the invention is compared to the prior art construction according to the EP 2 759 244 B1 especially with regard to two aspects of advantage.
  • the machine-side construction costs are reduced. It is only needed a fresh water inlet, which is formed on the suction side of the circulation pump. About this fresh water inlet is a supply of fresh water both in Spülprogrammfall and for the purpose of flushing by the method according to the invention instead.

  • the embodiment according to the invention enables a process implementation that is more effective in the flushing result. Because the construction according to the invention requires that fresh water introduced into the circulation pump on the suction side is pumped via the leakage opening into the flushing space and / or the collecting pot, depending on whether the leakage opening is provided by the spray arm or formed in the fluidic connection between the circulation pump and the spray arm. In any case, however, causes the discharge of fresh water through the leakage opening that the collecting pot is not acted upon in contrast to the configuration of the prior art via a lateral access with fresh water, but with the interposition of the leakage opening from above. This leads advantageously to the fact that due to the density differences between fresh water and residual water increased compared to the prior art displacement of residual water through the Introduced fresh water results. This, too, contributes overall to an improved process result.
  • the introduced fresh water is sucked in when the circulating pump and spent on the pressure side of the circulation pump, where it enters the fluidic connection to the spray arm, wherein the spray arm is preferably the lower spray arm. This is because the fluidic connection to the lower spray arm is guided by the collecting pot.

  • the drain pump is turned on, so that takes place with or at the latest with the promotion of the circulating pump of fresh water pumped into the collecting pot pumping out of the lye and / or chloride contaminated residual water.
  • the leakage opening is provided by the fluidic connection between the circulation pump and the spray arm.
  • no loading of the spray arm takes place.
  • the guided through the collecting pot fluid connection between the circulation pump and spray arm gives the introduced fresh water much more about the leakage opening, before it can reach the spray arm. It therefore finds without fluidic interposition of the washing container direct application of the collecting pot with fresh water instead. In the manner described above can then be pumped by switching on the drain pump located in the collecting pot under certain circumstances residual water.
  • the construction according to the invention is suitable not only in the previously described manner to effect a flushing of the alkali and / or chloride range. Rather, the flow circuit provided by the design can also be used to heat up the fresh water introduced into the dishwasher as optimally as possible, for example by means of a heater integrated in the circulating pump. In this case, pumping by means of the drain pump would not take place. Rather, a continued circulation of the introduced fresh water would be done by means of the circulation pump until the desired target temperature is reached.
  • the inventively provided leakage opening closes rinsing liquid depending. It is thus possible to distinguish between a flushing operation on the one hand and a flushing program operation on the other hand.
  • the circulation pump In the purging operation, the circulation pump is operated at low speed, for example at idle speed. At such a low speed, only a small pump pressure sets in, which keeps the leakage opening open. It can then be done in the manner described above, a delivery of fresh water through the leakage opening.

  • the rinse liquor dispensed to the pipe stub and thus also to the spray arm terminates as intended via the nozzles provided by the spray arm, so that an intended washing program can be run through.
  • the spray arm moves following the weight force in relation to the bearing bush down, so that due to the then spaced arrangement of bearing bush and spray arm, a gap between the sealing surface on the one hand and contact surface on the other hand arises.
  • This gap space provides the previously described leakage opening, so that flushing liquor introduced via the pipe socket can flow through the gap between the sealing surface and the contact surface and can flow away in the direction of the collecting pot.

  • the pipe socket 48 is equipped with a connection piece not shown in the figures. At these the first supply line 49 is connected, which opens into the fresh water line 21.
  • the circulation pump 11 suction mouth fresh water can be given by fresh water via the lines 21 and 28 and the connecting piece in the serving as a suction mouth 19 pipe socket 48 passes.
  • a negative pressure is created in the pipe socket 48. This leads to an intake of standing in the fresh water line 21 air, which interferes with the proper operation of the circulation pump 11.
  • the already mentioned at the beginning bypass line 27 is provided, as can be seen in particular from the illustration Fig. 2 results. Via this bypass line 27, a pressure equalization takes place or can be sucked in the collecting pot 10 befindliches rinse water.
