Definitions

  • the present invention relates to cutlery baskets for dishwashers, and in particular to a basket with internal mobile partitions which greatly enhance its possibilities of use.
  • a cutlery basket wherein the cutlery is held in a substantially vertical position.
  • the conventional basket generally has a grid-like structure (or perforated in some way) of parallelepiped shape, the internal volume being divided into smaller areas by vertical dividing partitions to keep the cutlery upright.
  • a top handle is provided to make it easy to be introduced into and removed from the rack, so as to be able to load and unload it conveniently outside the dishwasher.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a cutlery basket which overcomes the above-mentioned limits. This object is achieved by means of a cutlery basket provided with internal mobile partitions which can take either a vertical or horizontal position, and in the latter case even partially cantilevered outside the basket. Other advantageous features of the present cutlery basket are specified in the dependent claims.
  • the main advantage of the present basket is that it is even possible to arrange cutlery outside the parallelepiped structure by inserting it in the cantilever horizontal shelves, so as to increase the basket capacity.
  • Another advantage is that of having the maximum flexibility of use, in that the mobile partitions allow it to take a conventional configuration with vertical partitions, or with horizontal shelves inside or outside the basket in addition to any intermediate configuration (e.g. a vertical partition and a horizontal cantilever shelf).
  • Still another advantage stems from the fact that the mobile partitions can be made integral with the basket structure, whereby the user is guided in their positioning through suitable guiding slots and the partitions can not be removed and get lost.
  • the present basket is made up of a containing body S of parallelepiped shape open at the top in which there are inserted a central fixed partition F with a handle H and two mobile partitions M, M'. More specifically, partition F in inserted into a vertical guide L formed between two central ribs and is snap-coupled to container S, whereas the mobile partitions M, M' are provided at the bottom end with lateral pins P which slide along guide slots G formed in the sides of container S.
  • These guides G are substantially shaped as an inverted L, with the horizontal leg extending toward the basket center but also extending outward in the opposite direction slightly beyond the point where the vertical leg branches out.
  • the mobile partitions M, M' are also provided at their top end with lateral teeth N, and at mid-height with recesses R orthogonal to the plane of the mobile partition and formed in the sides extending on the face facing outward. Teeth N can be inserted into corresponding vertical seats V formed in raised portions of the top edge E of container S, while recesses R are shaped to fit over said top edge E.
  • All the above-mentioned elements S, F, M and M' have a grid-like structure, i.e. a plurality of holes arranged in regular rows to allow the passage of water.
  • M' holes A are sized to insert therein the handles of cutlery and/or the blades of knives.
  • the mobile partitions M, M' can be positioned either vertically to act as dividing walls, or horizontally to act as shelves for inserting cutlery therein. In this second use they can be arranged inside container S as in fig.2, or in a cantilevered manner so as to project halfway outside container S as in fig.3.
  • pins P reach the inner end of the horizontal leg of guide G, whereas in the second case they reach the outer end of said leg and recesses R are fit over edge E of container S.
  • the basket height is greater than half its length, whereby when the mobile partition is arranged vertically it does not touch the basket bottom. Therefore solid ribs D are preferably provided on the basket bottom at seats V, so as to obtain a continuous vertical partition from edge E to the bottom. Moreover there is also preferably provided a solid rib D', still of small height, which longitudinally divides in half the basket inner volume.
  • each mobile partition has 24 holes A, to house from a minimum of 48 spaced pieces of cutlery (fig.2) to a maximum of 48 spaced pieces of cutlery plus all the cutlery which can be contained between the two horizontal cantilever shelves and the central partition F. It should be noted that in this latter case 24 spaced pieces of cutlery are hanging outside container S, thus achieving a substantial increase in the basket capacity.
  • the above-described and illustrated embodiment of the cutlery basket according to the invention is just an example susceptible of various modifications.
  • the number of mobile partitions may be greater or lower than two, and the shape of the mobile partitions and the number and arrangement of holes A formed therein may change as well.
  • the number of recesses R could be greater than one per side, so as to increase the possibilities of adjustment of the shelf portion projecting from container S. In this case, as a consequence, guide G would take in practice a T shape.
  • the coupling mechanisms between the mobile partitions and container S may be different from the above-described couplings pin P/guide G, tooth N/seat V and recess R/edge E.
  • the partitions could be vertically inserted into lateral guides same as the central partition F, and then horizontally arranged in similar guides formed in edge E. In this case the partitions would no longer be integral with container S, but it would be possible to adjust at will the extent of the cantilever portion taking the increase in the basket capacity to the maximum.
