  • Brine is provided in the salt container which is activated for regenerating the ion exchanger and the amount of salt in the brine decreases in the course of time.
  • a conductivity sensor detects the decrease of salt in the salt container and the user is warned to add salt into the salt container.
  • adding salt to the salt container is difficult for the user since it is not easy for the user to access the salt container disposed inside the body of the dishwasher.
  • funnel-shaped salt filling tools which facilitate pouring salt into the salt container are available. But said tools are stored outside the machine.
  • a salt filling means which provides ease of utilization for the user is necessary.

  • EP0855165 In the state of the art European Patent Application No. EP0855165 is disclosed a dishwasher comprising an improved filtering device.
  • a filtering device of a dishwasher especially relates to a filtering device which is arranged inside of a water collecting slot for containing washing water and is used for filtering dirts in the washing water.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of dishwasher wherein it is made easier for the user to access the salt container for filling in salt.
  • the dishwasher realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises a body, a washing tub which is disposed in the body, a draining element which is provided on the washing tub base, a filter which is detachably mounted onto the draining element and a salt container for adjusting the hardness of the water.
  • the washing process is performed in the washing tub.
  • the draining element provided on the washing tub base, the dirt removed from the dishes are held before entering the washing line.
  • the washing line is prevented from being clogged.
  • the salt added to the salt container the hardness of the water can be adjusted, thus improving the washing performance.
  • the filter is composed of a microfilter and a coarse filter. While the microfilter holds small particles of dirt, the coarse filter prevents large particles of dirt from entering the washing line.
  • the dishwasher of the present invention comprises the coarse filter which can be detached from the filter to be mounted onto the salt container.
  • the user can more easily access the salt container to fill in salt.
  • the conical shape of the coarse filter the salt can be easily filled into the salt container.
  • the dishwasher comprises a rotary element which is disposed on the coarse filter.
  • the rotary element is detachably mounted onto the coarse filter.
  • the rotary element can be easily detached and cleaned by the user.
  • the dishwasher comprises a plurality of first openings which are arranged on the coarse filter and a plurality of second openings which are arranged on the rotary element.
  • first opening and the second opening can overlap or be separated.

  • the dishwasher comprises at least two feet disposed on the coarse filter. While the coarse filter is on the microfilter, the feet extends away from the microfilter. By means of the feet, the coarse filter can be mounted onto the salt container.
  • the dishwasher comprises at least two claws disposed on the salt container and a groove arranged on the foot. By fitting the claws into the grooves, the coarse filter is fixed onto the salt container. Thus, salt can be filled into the salt container.
  • the dishwasher comprises the coarse filter which has a conical shape narrowing down towards the salt container when mounted on the salt container.
  • the coarse filter can be used as a funnel.
  • a dishwasher comprising a coarse filter which can be used for facilitating the access of the user to the salt container.
  • the dishwasher (1) comprises a body (2); a washing tub (3) which is disposed in the body (2) and wherein the washing process is carried out; a draining element (4) which is disposed on the base (T) of the washing tub (3); a filter (7) which is detachably mounted onto the draining element (4) and which has a microfilter (5) for holding dirt and a coarse filter (6) which can be detachably mounted onto the microfilter (5) and which holds dirt particles; and a salt container (8) wherein the salt used for adjusting the hardness of water is filled.
  • the draining element (4) By means of the draining element (4), the dirt removed from the dishes is prevented from entering the washing line.
  • the draining element (4) can be easily detached and washed by the user.
  • the filter (7) is composed of the microfilter (5) and the coarse filter (6).
  • the microfilter (5) and the coarse filter (6) are detachably mounted onto each other. During the washing process, the hardness of the water sprayed onto the dishes is reduced by means of the salt filled into the salt container (8). Thus, the washing performance is increased.
  • the dishwasher (1) of the present invention comprises the conical coarse filter (6) which has a first position (A) where the coarse filter (6) is placed onto the microfilter (5) and a second position where the coarse filter (6) is detached from the microfilter (5) and placed onto the salt container (8).
  • the coarse filter (6) In the first position (A) the coarse filter (6) is on the microfilter (5) and used for draining. After being detached from the microfilter (5), the coarse filter (6) is turned upside down to the second position (B). In the second position (B), the coarse filter (6) is mounted onto the salt container (8), thus enabling the user to fill salt into the salt container (8).
  • the dishwasher (1) comprises the filter (7) having a rotary element (9) which is detachably mounted onto the coarse filter (6) and which is used for adjusting the size of dirt particles which may pass through the coarse filter (6).
  • the rotary element (9) can be easily detached from the filter (7) to be cleaned by the user.
  • the dishwasher (1) comprises the filter (7) having a plurality of first openings (10) arranged on the coarse filter (6) and a plurality of second openings (11) arranged on the rotary element (9) so as to align with the first openings (10) wherein the first openings (10) and the second openings (11) are displaced with the rotation of the rotary element (9) being rotated over the coarse filter (6).
  • the rotary element (9) can be rotated over the coarse filter (6).
  • the second openings (11) on the rotary element (9) are displaced while the latter rotates.
