Abstract
A machine for cleaning and sanitizing contains an outlet, a flow selector, a hydraulic circuit, a pump, a first three-way hydraulic fitting, a detergent injector, a second three-way fitting, at least one air compressor, and a fourth three-way fitting. The hydraulic circuit contains a first branch, a second branch, and a third branch. The outlet of the machine is adapted to mount a foam or rinse water dispenser, which is adapted to emit foam from the first branch or water from the second branch. The air compressor is in flow communication with the third branch. The flow selector is adapted to divert either the foam from the first branch or the water from the second branch towards the outlet of the machine.
Claims20
A machine for cleaning and sanitizing, the machine comprising:
- a hydraulic circuit comprising a first branch, a second branch and a third branch,
- a pump introducing water into said hydraulic circuit at a predefined pressure,
- a first outlet adapted to mount a foam or rinse water dispenser, which is adapted to emit foam from said first branch or water from said second branch,
- at least one flow selector adapted to divert either the foam from the first branch or the water from the second branch towards said first outlet of the machine,
- a first three-way hydraulic fitting comprising an inlet in flow communication with said pump, a first outlet connected in flow communication with said first branch and a second outlet connected in flow communication with said second branch,
- a detergent injector introducing a detergent into the first branch of the hydraulic circuit, wherein said detergent injector is mounted in flow communication with said first branch, said detergent injector comprises a first inlet connected in flow communication with the first outlet of the first three-way hydraulic fitting, a second inlet in flow communication with a detergent tank containing the detergent, an outlet, and a mixing chamber in flow communication with the first inlet, the second inlet and the outlet of the detergent injector, and said mixing chamber is adapted to mix water with the detergent,
- a second three-way fitting comprising a first inlet mounted in flow communication with the outlet of said detergent injector, a second inlet mounted in flow communication with said third branch, an outlet, and a mixing chamber in flow communication with said first inlet, said second inlet and said outlet (328) of the second three-way fitting,
- at least one air compressor in flow communication with said third branch, and
- a fourth three-way fitting comprising a first inlet connected in flow communication with said outlet of the second three-way fitting, a second inlet connected with the second outlet of the first three-way hydraulic fitting, and an outlet connected to the first outlet of the machine.
