Dishwasher with sorption dryer device

摘要

A dishwasher having a washing container, a sorption dryer device connected to the washing container in an air-conducting fashion, and at least one flow-conditioning device to homogenize a flow cross-section profile of an airflow as the airflow flows through the sorption dryer device. The flow-conditioning device is provided for the sorption unit between at least one heating element and the sorption unit of the sorption dryer device when viewed in the direction of the airflow such that essentially every point of an intake cross-section area of the sorption unit of the sorption dryer device is permeated by a volumetric airflow with essentially the same intake temperature.

主权项

1. A dishwasher, comprising:
a washing container; a sorption dryer device connected to the washing container in an air-conducting fashion, the sorption dryer device including at least one sorption unit with reversibly dehydratable drying material, and a plurality of screens or gratings in which the dehydratable drying material is interspaced; at least one heating element; at least one blower disposed upstream of the at least one heating element in a direction of flow, the direction of flow being that which an airflow flows from the washing container; and at least one flow-conditioning device disposed upstream of the sorption dryer device in the direction of flow and independent of the at least one heating element, wherein the at least one flow-conditioning device is arranged at least one of between the at least one blower and the at least one heating element when viewed in the direction of the airflow and between the at least one heating element and the sorption dryer device when viewed in the direction of the airflow, and wherein the at least one flow-conditioning device includes at least one plate, grating, or pipe wall, the at least one flow-conditioning device having a plurality of apertures configured to vary the airflow at different portions of the at least one flow-conditioning device to thereby homogenize a flow cross-section profile of the airflow as the airflow flows through the sorption dryer device.
