Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2215953A1] A dishwashing machine is described (10) comprising at least one pre-wash area (12), provided with means (20, 24, 28, 32) for pre-washing dishes, at least one wash area (14), provided with means (22, 26, 30, 34) for washing dishes, at least one rinse area (16), provided with means (36, 38, 40, 42) for rinsing dishes, and at least one drying area (46), provided with means (48) for drying dishes. Such areas (12, 14, 16, 46) are arranged in series and are crossed by means (18) for transporting dishes. The drying area (46) comprises at least one dehumidifying device (50) which is able to dehumidify the air conveyed by the drying means (48) onto the dishes passing through the drying area (46). The drying area (46) also comprises a plurality of closed ducts (54), that is to say without any type of openings that allow the air to be exchanged with outside, which are able to convey dry air, coming from the dehumidifying device (50), towards the dishes passing through such a drying area (46). The drying area (46) is thus able to carry out the drying of the dishes by blowing completely recycled dry air, at high speed, onto the dishes themselves.
