Abstract:
1. A dishwasher, comprising: a washing compartment; an air-guiding channel; and a sorption drying system to dry items to be washed, the sorption drying system having a sorption compartment with reversibly dehydratable sorption drying material, wherein the sorption compartment is connected to the washing compartment by the air-guiding channel for passage of an air flow; wherein: the sorption compartment has a sorption unit having the sorption drying material; the sorption compartment has a geometric shape such that the sorption unit is provided with a default through-flow direction for the air flow substantially in or against the direction of gravity; and the air-guiding channel is coupled to the sorption compartment such that the air flow opens into the sorption compartment with an inflow direction and switches to the default through-flow direction prior to the sorption drying material due at least in part to a surface within the sorption compartment, angled between horizontal and vertical, that deflects the air flow.
