Dishwasher with sorption stretched device in substructure group

Abstract

In a dishwasher (GS) with at least one washing compartment (SB) and at least one drying device (TE) for drying cleaned dishes, which has at least one sorption container (SOR) for holding reversibly dehydratable sorption material, especially zeolite (ZEO), and with at least one connecting air duct (VK) for conducting air being connected to the washing compartment (SB) for creating an exchange of air between the washing compartment (SB) and the sorption container (BEH), reversibly dehydratable sorption material for absorbing an amount of moisture transported by the exchange of air is provided in the sorption container (BEH). The sorption container (BEH) is accommodated in an underfloor module (BG) below the floor of the washing compartment (SB).

1 - 13 . (canceled) 
     
     
         14 . A dishwasher comprising:
 a washing compartment;   a drying device for drying cleaned dishes comprising a sorption container in an underfloor module below a floor of the washing compartment for holding reversibly dehydratable sorption material; and   an air duct conducting air between the drying device and the washing compartment for generating an exchange of air between the washing compartment and the sorption container.   
     
     
         15 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein the reversibly dehydratable sorption material comprises zeolite. 
     
     
         16 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein a weight of the reversibly dehydratable sorption material is such that an amount of moisture absorbed by the sorption material is less than an amount of liquid applied to the dishes. 
     
     
         17 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein the amount of liquid applied to the dishes comprises an amount of liquid applied during a rinsing. 
     
     
         18 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein a weight of the reversibly dehydratable sorption material is such that an amount of moisture absorbed by the reversibly dehydratable sorption material essentially corresponds to an amount of wetting with which the dishes are wetted after the end of a rinsing. 
     
     
         19 . The dishwasher of  claim 18 , wherein the absorbed amount of moisture corresponds to between 4 and 25% of the amount of liquid applied to the dishes. 
     
     
         20 . The dishwasher of  claim 18 , wherein the absorbed amount of moisture corresponds to between 5 and 15% of the amount of liquid applied to the dishes. 
     
     
         21 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein a weight of the reversibly dehydratable sorption material is between 0.2 and 5 kg. 
     
     
         22 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein a weight of the reversibly dehydratable sorption material is between 0.3 and 3 kg. 
     
     
         23 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein a weight of the reversibly dehydratable sorption material is between 0.5 and 5 kg. 
     
     
         24 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , wherein the drying device is connected via an air duct an outlet and to an inlet of the washing compartment. 
     
     
         25 . The dishwasher of  claim 24 , wherein the air duct is largely arranged outside the washing compartment. 
     
     
         26 . The dishwasher of  claim 24 , wherein an outlet-side section of the air duct is connected to an inlet of the washing compartment in an area close to a floor of the washing compartment. 
     
     
         27 . The dishwasher of  claim 24 , wherein an inlet-side section of the air duct is connected to an outlet of the washing compartment above a floor of the washing compartment. 
     
     
         28 . The dishwasher of  claim 24 , wherein an inlet-side section of the air duct is connected to an outlet of the washing compartment in an area close to a roof of the washing compartment. 
     
     
         29 . The dishwasher of  claim 24 , wherein an inlet-side section of the air duct comes out in the sorption container of the drying device in an area close to a floor such that its inflow direction is diverted by around 90° in the through flow direction of the sorption container. 
     
     
         30 . The dishwasher of  claim 14 , further comprising a fan for creating an air flow before the drying device in a flow direction of the air flow. 
     
     
         31 . The dishwasher of  claim 30 , further comprising a heating element for desorption between the fan and the drying device in a direction of flow. 
     
     
         32 . The dishwasher of  claim 31 , wherein the sorption container comprises the heating element in front of the reversibly dehydratable sorption material in a direction of flow.
