Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dishwasher and a control method thereof, in which the dishes kept waiting to be washed are prevented from producing an irritating odor.
  • an odor eliminating chemical substance is put inside a casing with a shutter, arranged within the dishwasher and the shutter is opened when required by a driving device to release the odor eliminating substance over the dishes.
  • the washing water is electrolyzed by utilizing an electrolysis device situated inside a dishwasher and the washing performance is enhanced.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a dishwasher and the control method thereof, in which the dishes kept waiting prior to washing are prevented to produce an irritating odor with a very small amount of energy consumption.
  • FIG. 1 is the schematic view of a dishwasher.
  • Control unit 7 Control unit 7 .
  • the dishwasher ( 1 ) comprises a tub ( 2 ) into which dishes to be washed are placed, a sump ( 3 ) where wash water is collected, a heater ( 4 ) utilized to heat the wash water, a circulation pump ( 5 ) which provides the circulation of the wash water, a discharge pump ( 6 ) which drains the wash water at the end of the washing process and a control unit ( 7 ).
  • the control unit starts the main washing program (A) comprising of cold-hot washing, rinsing and drying steps and a short term odor eliminating washing program ( 13 ) starts independent from the main washing program (A) either upon user's demand for preventing the heavy odor produced when dishes are kept waiting for a long time or automatically when the developing odor level rises.
  • the odor eliminating washing program (B) is a mini-washing program that performs all or some of the steps of the main washing program (A) for shorter periods and at lower temperatures.
  • the complete odor eliminating washing program (B) is short-term, for example 5 minutes, and only removes the dirt of the dishes kept waiting in the dishwasher that can produce an odor with a minimum amount of energy consumption.
  • the dishwasher ( 1 ) comprises a starting button ( 8 ) to allow the odor eliminating washing program (B) to be started by the user.
  • the dishwasher ( 1 ) comprises an odor detector ( 9 ) that detects the odor spreading from the dishes kept waiting in the tub ( 2 ) and an indicator ( 11 ) which gives off an audio and/or visual warning if the odor amount detected by the odor detector ( 9 ) exceeds a preset limit.
  • the indicator ( 11 ) when the odor amount detected by the odor detector ( 9 ) exceeds a preset limit, the indicator ( 11 ) is enabled by the control unit ( 7 ) to give off an audio and/or visual warning. Upon receiving the warning from the indicator ( 11 ), the odor eliminating washing program (B) is initiated by the user pressing on the starting button ( 8 ).
  • the dishwasher ( 1 ) comprises a measuring chamber ( 10 ) where the odor detector ( 9 ) is positioned, convenient for gathering a measurement sample of the medium air inside the tub ( 2 ).
  • the odor eliminating washing program (B) is automatically started by the control unit ( 7 ) when the odor amount detected by the odor detector ( 9 ) exceeds a preset limit, warning the user by the indicator ( 11 ) or without warning given via the indicator ( 11 ).
  • the information on time periods of expensive and cheap rates of electric consumption costs is loaded to the control unit ( 11 ) as input and when the automatic starting of the odor eliminating program (B) corresponds to the expensive rate period, the odor eliminating program (B) does not start but is postponed until the following cheap rate period.
  • the control unit ( 11 ) comprises a clock circuit ( 13 ) having timing information.
  • the irritating odors produced by the dishes kept waiting for a long time prior to washing in the dishwasher ( 1 ) are detected by the odor detector ( 9 ) and a signal is sent to the indicator ( 11 ) warning the user in the manually started implementation.
  • the user when warned by the indicator ( 11 ), will start the odor eliminating program (B) by pressing on the starting button ( 8 ) if so desired.
  • the odor eliminating program (B) starts automatically when the odor amount detected by the odor detector ( 9 ) is above a preset limit. If the automatic starting time is within the expensive rate time period input in advance in the control unit ( 7 ), the odor eliminating program (B) does not start but starts automatically in the next cheap rate time period.
  • the dishwasher ( 1 ) comprises an odor eliminating substance chamber ( 12 ) into which odor eliminating chemical substances are put.
  • the odor eliminating washing program (B) comprises the steps of taking in water, preferably into the sump ( 3 ), opening the odor eliminating substance chamber ( 12 ) to mix the odor eliminating substance with the wash water, heating the wash water to a low temperature by the heater ( 4 ), circulating with the circulation pump ( 5 ) and draining the wash water with the discharge pump ( 6 ).
  • the dishwasher ( 1 ) When the odor eliminating washing program (B), started by the user or automatically, is completed, the dishwasher ( 1 ) again goes into the pause mode; the user has to start the main washing program (A) when the dishes are desired to be washed.
  • the odor eliminating washing program (B) is employed to prevent the dishes that are kept waiting from producing a heavy odor.
  • a better washing performance is achieved by the main washing program (A) when the odor eliminating washing program (B) is employed since the heavy dirt on the dishes are removed before drying up.
