Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0752232A1] A dishwashing machine (1) is described, of the type comprising a washing chamber (2) within which the dishes are contained, contained in one or more baskets. The dishwashing machine according to the invention is equipped with a natural air circulation system in the washing chamber (2), with the aims of favouring the elimination of the steam and the drying of the dishes. The system comprises in particular two mouths (5,10) that place in communication the interior of the chamber (2) with the external environment; the first mouth (10), which functions as an entrance for the air flow (16), is realised in the lower zone of the chamber (2), while the second mouth (5), which functions as the exit for the air-steam mixture, is realised in the upper zone of the chamber (2). The structure of the two mouths (10,5) is realised so as that they offer appropriate resistance to the incoming and exiting flows, in such a way as to optimise the air recirculation capacity. <IMAGE>
