Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cutlery rack for dishwashers.
  • Dishwashers are generally equipped with a cutlery rack which is most of the time made up of a removable basket with skeleton, this basket being compartmentalized and only open on top.
  • Such a cutlery basket is for example divided into six or eight compartments of the same dimensions, each compartment being capable of receiving a dozen cutlery in the "standing" position.
  • the user places the cutlery in each of these compartments in a standing position, so that the handle of each cutlery, or at least most of it, is inside the skeleton compartment, while its head is that is to say in fact its really dirty part, protrudes from the upper free face of this compartment.
  • the cutlery of each compartment is freely placed one against the other, so that it sometimes happens that they fit into each other, or stick together. to each other, either during installation or during washing, this which is even more penalizing as regards the pressure drop of the washing water stream, and finally as regards the quality of the washing carried out.
  • the invention aims to remedy these drawbacks.
  • the cutlery rack for dishwasher according to the invention is of the openwork type and is characterized in that it is arranged in such a way that at least one of its large lateral faces is at least partially open, or can at least partially open, and in that its upper part is provided with corridors intended to trap cutlery, each corridor being open on the open or openable side of the large side face, the forks or spoons being trapped at their collar that separates their sleeve from their head.
  • each corridor has at least one semi-rigid strip or spike to trap the cutlery.
  • FIG. 1 it is a cutlery rack openwork, generally parallelepiped shape, and provided, as is often the case for cutlery racks for washing dishes, a handle 1.
  • This rack is special in that its two large side faces are open. Furthermore, its upper part 2, which includes the upper face of the parallelepiped, is provided with a fairly large number (twenty six in this case) of rows of strips 3 at a free end, or pins. These strips, or pins, 3 are semi-rigid, and together they define thirteen lanes 4, parallel to each other, located in the plane of the upper face of the rack and parallel to its short sides 5.
  • the strips 3 of each lane 4 are arranged so as to define between them aligned boxes of imprisonment one by one of the covers 6, so that each corridor 4, which is open, as can be seen in the drawing, on the side of the large lateral face 7 closest to the observer, is capable of receive a maximum of four place settings 6 placed one behind the other.
  • cutlery 6 are introduced one by one through the free entrance of each corridor 4, and each of them is then trapped, at the level of the neck 8 separating their sleeve 9 from their head 10 (in the case of forks or spoons, and not kitchen knives which do not have, as for them, no neck), in all four slats 3 defining between them a compartment for receiving a cutlery 6.
  • Each pair of slats 3 in vis- vis-à-vis is consequently separated from the following, in the same corridor 4, by a relative spacing capable of allowing each cover 6 to be trapped, and only one, all along this corridor 4.
  • each cover 6 in the rack is carried out laterally, by the wide open face 7.
  • the user then naturally holds this cover by its handle 9, and not by its dirty part and sharp, or pungent.
  • Each cutlery is trapped at its neck 8, and it is physically clearly separated from the other cutlery.
  • the cutlery is therefore spaced from each other, which provides effective washing.
  • the two large side faces of the rack being open, the washing water can easily circulate, which improves the washing efficiency all the more.
  • at least one retaining bar 11, shown in phantom in the drawing can advantageously be provided on the large rear lateral face of this rasp-tie.
  • This rack can be used as a conventional cutlery rack for dishwashers, finding its place in the upright position ( Figure 1) in a place in the lower (or upper) basket of the dishwasher, this place being provided for this purpose. It is capable of being produced in very numerous variants, some of which are remarkable in that they make it very practical for the user to fix the rack in the dishwasher so that it can be tilted horizontally for loading and unloading operations.
  • the rack in Figure 2 differs from that previously described in that its large rear side face 12, opposite the open face 7 above, is fully screened, so that it supports the sleeves 9 of cutlery 6 if the as in this FIG. 2, the rack is placed in a horizontal position, with its face 7 facing upwards.
  • Two side buttons 14 are provided to allow the rack to be hooked to the top of hairpin fasteners 15 provided for this purpose in the dishwasher.
  • This rack can therefore be easily tilted horizontally for loading and unloading cutlery, washing is obviously and conventionally carried out with the rack in the standing position.
  • the rack of FIG. 2 is such that its lanes 4 are each made up of a single row of strips 3, and not of two rows of strips facing each other, as for the rack of FIG. 1: a cover cell is only delimited in this case by two strips 3 instead of four.
  • the rack of Figure 3 which is shown placed on a work table of a fitted kitchen, by example very close to the cutlery storage drawer, is similar to that of figure 2. Compared to the latter, it nevertheless presents two small improvements: . Its large screened rear face 12 is provided with walls or walls 16 which are orthogonal to the aforementioned corridors 4; these low walls 16 give a better hold to the rack and provide better separation of the cutlery. . The aforementioned large front face 7 can receive a sliding closing grid 17, which is, moreover, in this example completely removable.
  • the rack in Figure 4 has two interesting features: . the strips 3 and the corridors 4 with the aforementioned compartments are produced by a removable grid 18, molded in one piece; . a flexible closing bar 19 is provided in order to oppose the lateral extraction of the cutlery during washing; this bar 19 could be replaced by a removable belt surrounding the upper face of the rack, and playing both a solid holding role of the grid 18 and a role of trapping cutlery.
  • the rack in Figure 5 differs from that in Figure 4 in that its handle 1 is sliding, so as to take up less space in height in the dishwasher and possibly allow it to be stored directly in a drawer, and by the fact that it is provided with side buttons 14 which are arranged, in combination with the associated fasteners 15, to allow not only the tilting of the rack horizontally, but also its extraction by lifting when it is in a standing position (i.e. in a vertical position).
  • a last embodiment is shown in Figures 6 to 8. It is a rack which is arranged to be fixed, tiltably and removably, on the front face of the upper or lower basket 20 of the dishwasher. It is provided for this purpose an auxiliary support 21 which is fixed on the basket 20 by means of hooks 22 provided for molding for this purpose.
  • a lumen 24 in the form of a frying pan which cooperates with a slender lateral bulge 25 of the rack for: - maintain the rack in a vertical position ( Figure 6); - ensure, after tilting anti-clockwise and slight traction towards the user, maintaining the rack in a horizontal position ( Figure 7); - Allow, after rotating a quarter turn clockwise a part 26 for closing the light 24, the extraction of the rack, that is to say its separation from the basket 20 ( Figure 8).
  • this rack is provided with a sliding grid 17 for closing the large side face by which the introduction and removal of cutlery.
  • this sliding grid 17 is provided with a grip handle 27.
  • Its opposite side is provided with a flat retaining bar 28 which, as can be seen in FIG. 6, opposes the opening of this grid 27 when the rack is placed on its support 21 in a vertical position (due to the complementary shape of this support 21).
  • FIG. 7 it is possible to open this grid 17, when this same rack is tilted and locked in the horizontal high position.
  • Figures 9 to 12 show how the tilting and opening of this rack are carried out very quickly, for example after washing for unloading cutlery, or before washing for loading.
  • the user first of all conventionally slides, by pulling it towards him, the basket 20 towards the outside of the dishwasher tank. Then he grasps the aforementioned lower handle 27 (FIG. 10), and tilt the rack horizontally (Figure 11). He then pulls this handle to him to slide the grid 17 and thus open the rack (Figure 12).
