Abstract
An ozone laundry system that injects ozone into the chemical injection system in order to allow the system to inject ozone as other cleaning chemicals are injected into the washer. This allows ozone to be injected through the wash cycle rather than just during the initial fill phase and additional avoids the expense and maintenance of adding ozone recirculation plumping to an ozone laundry system. Accordingly, ozone levels may be maintained at superior levels throughout the wash cycle.
Claims20
An ozone laundry system comprising:
- a wash drum configured to received soiled laundry therein;
- a first water supply line configured to deliver water to the wash drum;
- a flush manifold configured to receive water from a second water supply line and chemicals from one or more chemical containers, thereby forming a mixture of water and chemicals therein;
- an ozone generator in fluid communication with an outlet line of the flush manifold and being configured to introduce ozone directly into the mixture of water and chemicals in the flush manifold outlet line;
- and
- a chemical supply line configured to deliver the mixture of water, chemicals, and ozone to the wash drum
- a controller configured to trigger initiation of pumping chemicals from the one or more chemical containers into the flush manifold.

An ozone laundry system comprising:
- a wash drum;
- a first water supply line configured to deliver water to the wash drum;
- a flush manifold coupled to one or more chemical containers, the flush manifold configured to receive chemicals from the one or more chemical containers;
- an ozone generator in fluid communication with an inlet of the flush manifold and a second water supply line, the ozone generator being configured to:
- introduce ozone directly into water received from the second water supply line, and
- provide the mixture of water and ozone to the inlet of the flush manifold, the flush manifold thereby forming a mixture of water, chemicals, and ozone therein;
- a chemical supply line coupled to an outlet of the flush manifold configured to deliver the mixture of water, chemicals, and ozone to the wash drum;
- and
- a controller configured to trigger initiation of pumping chemicals from the one or more chemical containers into the flush manifold.
