DISHWASHER AND CONTROLLING METHOD OF DISHWASHER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240122440 titled 'DISHWASHER AND CONTROLLING METHOD OF DISHWASHER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a dishwasher with two blowers positioned on opposite sides of the tub, one to discharge air outside the tub to lower humidity and the other to circulate air inside the tub.
- The first blower is positioned at one side of the tub to discharge air outside the tub through the opening when the door is open.
- The second blower is positioned at the other side of the tub to circulate air inside the tub that is not discharged by the first blower.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied to other appliances that require controlled air circulation and humidity levels, such as refrigerators or food storage containers.
Problems Solved
This innovation solves the problem of high humidity levels inside dishwashers, which can lead to mold growth and unpleasant odors.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved air circulation, reduced humidity levels, and a more hygienic environment inside the dishwasher.
Potential Commercial Applications
A potential commercial application of this technology could be in industrial dishwashers used in restaurants or catering facilities, where maintaining a clean and hygienic environment is crucial.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be dishwashers with single blowers for air circulation, but not specifically designed to discharge air outside the tub to lower humidity levels.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact energy consumption in the dishwasher?
The patent application does not provide information on how the use of two blowers affects the energy consumption of the dishwasher.
The patent application does not address any safety concerns that may arise from the discharge of air outside the dishwasher tub.
Original Abstract Submitted
a dishwasher including a tub including an opening; a door configured to open and close the opening; a first blower positioned at a first side of the tub; and a second blower positioned at a second side of the tub; wherein the first blower is configured to, while the door is positioned to open the opening, discharge a portion of air inside of the tub through the opening to outside of the tub so as to lower humidity inside of the tub, and the second blower is configured to, while the door is positioned to open the opening, circulate air inside of the tub that is not discharged by the first blower.
