DISH WASHER AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17950652 titled 'DISH WASHER AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a dishwasher with various components and features. Here are the bullet points explaining the patent/innovation:
- The dishwasher consists of a cabinet, tub, sump, case brake, water supply valve, filter assembly, and a processor.
- The tub is located inside the cabinet, and the sump is positioned underneath it.
- The case brake is connected to the side wall of the tub and also linked to the sump.
- A water supply valve is connected to an external water supply source.
- A filter assembly is placed between the water supply valve and the case brake.
- The filter assembly includes multiple flow path valves that can open or close different flow paths.
- These flow path valves guide water from the external supply source to the case brake.
- The processor is programmed to control the opening and closing of the water supply valve and one of the flow path valves at different times.
- This allows for the sequential supply and cessation of water during the dishwasher's operation.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Household dishwashers in residential kitchens.
- Commercial dishwashers in restaurants, hotels, and other food service establishments.
- Industrial dishwashers used in large-scale food production facilities.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient water supply management during the dishwasher's operation.
- Controlled and timed water flow to ensure proper cleaning and rinsing.
- Preventing water wastage by opening and closing valves at specific points.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved water usage efficiency.
- Enhanced cleaning performance due to controlled water flow.
- Reduced water wastage, leading to cost savings and environmental benefits.
