technical field

The utility model relates to a tableware washing machine, which is provided with a device for placing washing articles, in particular for placing tableware pieces.

Background technique

It is known to place the rinse items in the rinse container of a dishwasher in one or more crockery baskets. These crockery baskets usually have a plastic-coated wire braid and are usually movably supported on the side wall of the rinsing container, so that when the front door of a floor-standing dishwasher (Unterbau-Geschirrspülmaschine) is opened, the crockery basket can be Pull from rinse container. For placing the cutlery pieces, a separate module in the form of a cutlery basket is usually provided in the lower crockery basket, which module can usually be removed from the crockery basket. A disadvantage of this known cutlery basket is that it is arranged in a bottom crockery basket and is therefore inconvenient and user-unfriendly for loading.

In another known device for storing crockery, a crockery drawer is provided in the upper region of the rinsing container for storing crockery besides the crockery basket, which can be inserted into the rinsing container of a dishwasher and removed from the out of which. However, such a cutlery drawer has the disadvantage that it requires a relatively large space in the rinsing container, which is lost when other rinsing items are placed; in addition, the dishwashing is improved by providing an additional cutlery drawer. machine production costs.

A separate cutlery storage device is known from document DE 199 25 312, which is placed on a crockery basket and is movably supported on a longitudinal support. The displacement movement of the cutlery storage device is limited by a stop, so that it is ensured that the drawn cutlery storage device cannot tip over. A disadvantage of this crockery storage device is that, due to the arrangement above the crockery basket, the storage space in and above the crockery storage device is limited either by the movement space of a rotating spray arm, the upper crockery basket or by the cover of the rinsing container. up. Thus according to DE 199 25 312 larger cutlery pieces cannot be placed in the cutlery storage device and even smaller cutlery pieces can only be placed in the lying position. Furthermore, by arranging the cutlery storage device above the crockery basket, the storage space in the crockery basket is restricted upwards and the handling of pieces of crockery or cutlery arranged in the crockery basket is hindered.

Utility model content

The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a dishwasher with a rinsing container, at least one crockery basket with a substantially horizontal main storage plane, and a separate storage device for storing rinsing items, in particular a A cutlery basket for storing cutlery pieces, wherein the separate storage device or cutlery basket is at least partially integrated in the main storage plane of the crockery basket and is mounted displaceably on the crockery basket between an insertion position and a loading position .

The dishwasher according to the invention has at least one crockery basket with a substantially horizontal main storage plane and a separate storage device for storing items to be rinsed, in particular a crockery basket for storing crockery pieces, wherein The separate storage device or cutlery basket described above is at least partially integrated into the main storage plane of the crockery basket and is mounted on the crockery basket so that it can move between a loading position and an insertion position. The integration of the cutlery basket into the main storage plane of the crockery basket means that at least part of the bottom of the separate storage device or the cutlery basket occupies a certain part of the main storage plane of the crockery basket, wherein the main storage plane corresponds to the crockery basket. The base or storage surface of the basket, which is bounded by the edges or side walls of the crockery basket.

With the dishwasher according to the invention, the advantage is obtained that the separate storage device or the crockery basket can be independent of the crockery basket of the dishwasher because the separate storage device or crockery basket is movably mounted on the crockery basket Therefore, the separate storage device can be withdrawn from the crockery basket without the crockery basket itself having to move. The separate storage device is thus preferably withdrawn forwards out of the crockery basket and thus out of the rinsing container of the dishwasher, which makes it possible to load and remove crockery from the separate storage device pieces or cutlery pieces made easy.

With the aid of the dishwasher according to the invention, the advantage is also obtained that, in addition to the crockery basket, no additional drawers, which are supported on the side walls of the rinsing container, are required for placing crockery pieces, and the resulting crockery drawer is not lost. comfort. According to the invention, the displaceable mounting of the crockery basket in the crockery basket makes it possible to better differentiate between standard models and special versions of dishwashers or crockery baskets both functionally and visually. Further advantages of the dishwasher according to the invention emerge from the following description of preferred embodiments.

In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the separate storage device or crockery basket is integrated in an upper crockery basket of the dishwasher. The accessibility of the crockery or cutlery pieces placed in the separate storage device or cutlery basket is thus improved compared to an arrangement in the lower crockery basket.

The crockery in the separate storage device or the tableware in the cutlery basket can thus be easily accessed in the dishwasher of the invention, especially if the separate storage device or the cutlery basket is arranged on a movably supported On the end wall of the crockery basket through which it can be drawn out of the rinsing container of a floor-standing dishwasher.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the separate storage device or cutlery basket is arranged in a corner region of the crockery basket, so that in the inserted position the two adjacent side walls of the cutlery basket are each substantially parallel Oriented to the end wall and one side wall of the crockery basket. By arranging the separate storage device or crockery basket in a corner area of the crockery basket, on the one hand the crockery basket can be easily handled, and on the other hand the inner area of the crockery basket can be used exclusively for storing other washing items.

Furthermore, the separate storage device or cutlery basket is arranged in an outer region of the crockery basket in such a way that at least one side wall of the crockery basket in the inserted position is at least partially a side wall, preferably at least part of an end wall, of the crockery basket . For this purpose, the cutlery basket is preferably configured and arranged on the crockery basket such that at least one side wall of the cutlery basket is aligned with a side wall of the crockery basket, in particular an end wall of the crockery basket, in the inserted position.

The separate storage device or cutlery basket can be arranged in a corner region of the crockery basket such that at least two mutually adjacent side walls of the crockery basket in the inserted position are at least part of an end wall of the crockery basket and are in each case at least a portion of one side wall. For this purpose, the cutlery basket is preferably formed and arranged on the crockery basket in such a way that at least two mutually adjacent side walls of the cutlery basket are aligned with an end wall and at least one side wall of the crockery basket in the inserted position. In this way, in addition to comfortable handling, a pleasing appearance of the crockery basket with the integrated cutlery basket can also be achieved.

A further advantage is obtained when the separate storage device or cutlery basket is detachably mounted on the crockery basket. The crockery basket can thus be withdrawn or replaced from its holding position on the crockery basket in order to easily load or unload crockery or cutlery. It is expedient if the separate storage device or the cutlery basket is equipped with a handle which preferably extends upwards beyond the height of the cutlery basket and by means of which the cutlery basket can be moved or can be pulled out of the crockery basket. Alternatively or additionally, the cutlery basket is also provided with a handle which projects at least partially horizontally beyond the side wall of the crockery basket and by means of which the cutlery basket can be pulled out of the crockery basket or the rinsing container.

According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the separate storage device or cutlery basket is equipped with auxiliary means for the proper placement and support of specific crockery pieces, in particular in the cutlery basket, This facilitates the separation of the pieces of crockery or crockery and their cleaning during the rinsing process of the dishwasher. Furthermore, a clear arrangement of the cutlery at a specific position in the device is thereby achieved and contact of the cutlery is prevented, which prevents damage to the cutlery and noise generation during the rinsing process. As an alternative to the cutlery basket, a separate storage device can also be arranged on the crockery basket in the manner described above according to the invention, which is suitable for storing any other crockery.

The dishwashing machine according to the invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and allows crockery and tableware to be inserted into the rinsing container in an easily accessible, space-saving and gentle manner.
