Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a dishwashing machine provided with an extractable functional unit that makes the use thereof particularly convenient and rational.
  • the present invention refers to a dishwashing machine featuring an innovatory architecture, as described for instance in WO 00/72741, comprising a front loading door which is made in the form of a drawer-like structure, i.e. capable of being pulled out horizontally, and is joined, on its lower side, with a pan forming the bottom of the washing vessel of the machine, so as to draw such a pan with it when pulled out.
  • a front loading door which is made in the form of a drawer-like structure, i.e. capable of being pulled out horizontally, and is joined, on its lower side, with a pan forming the bottom of the washing vessel of the machine, so as to draw such a pan with it when pulled out.
  • a horizontal partition wall divides the washing vessel of the machine into a lower compartment, which accommodates said pan along with washload-support means attached to the door, and an upper compartment that accommodates further extractable washload-support means. Closing the door into a pushed-in, i.e. retracted position automatically causes all washload-support means, which are associated to respective rotating spray arms, to slide into position inside the washing
  • a dishwashing machine of the above described kind offers a number of advantages in terms of both convenience and operational flexibility.
  • the partition wall - which is joined to, i.e. integral with the washing vessel and performs mainly as a dripping pan, for the washload items arranged thereabove, when the door is pulled out jointly with the bottom of the same washing vessel - also has a number of practical drawbacks, i.e.:
  • the dishwashing machine mainly comprises, inside an outer casing, a washing vessel 1, a bottom portion 2 of which is firmly joined to a front loading door 3 of the extractable drawer type.
  • the door 3 is adapted to slide horizontally with the aid of (per se known and not shown) runners between two positions, i.e. a retracted position, illustrated in Figure 1, in which the door frontally closes the washing vessel 1 that is in this way coupled on its lower side with the bottom 2 thereof, and an extracted or pulled-out position, illustrated in Figure 2, in which also the bottom 2 of the washing vessel 1 is correspondingly pulled out and separated from the remaining portion of the washing vessel itself.
  • the washing vessel 1 is adapted to accommodate at least an upper dish rack 4 which, in a per se known manner, is capable of being pulled out from the front side of the machine, by sliding on appropriate runners, and is associated to at least a respective rotating spray arm 5.
  • the washing vessel 1 is adapted to accommodate at least a lower dish rack 6 that is firmly joined to the door 3 and, therefore, is pulled out jointly with it, and is in turn associated to at least a respective rating spray arm 7.
  • the partition wall 8 when the door 3 slides into the extracted position shown in Figure 2, the partition wall 8 is adapted to extend transversally across the washing vessel 1, thereby dividing the interior of the machine into substantially separate compartments 9, 10, whereas, when the door 3, is caused to slide into its retracted, closed position, the partition wall 8 is adapted to retract into a compact condition taking up just a very small space, so as to enable the compartments 9, 10 to be in substantial communication with each other inside the washing vessel of the machine.
  • the partition wall 8 is preferably made with a plurality of sectors 11, 11', 11" interconnected with each other by means of respective sliding connections 12, so as to form, when the door 3 is in its extracted position, a composite structure that extends telescopically from a position adjacent to the rear wall 13 of the washing vessel 1 to a rear edge 14 of the bottom portion 2 of the same washing vessel.
  • the structure 8 is connected to the side walls of the washing vessel, in the above mentioned position adjacent to the rear wall 13 thereof, at a higher level with respect to the connection of the structure 8 with the rear edge 14 of the bottom portion 2 of the washing vessel, in such a manner as to form a dripping wall that is inclined downwards frontally when the door 3 is open.
  • the composite structure 8 is adapted to shrink into the above-mentioned compact condition, thereby forming just a small-sized "pack" adjacent to the rear wall 13 of the washing vessel.
  • the structure 8 is hinged on the rear, at 15, on to the washing vessel 1 through a sector 11', whereas it is hinged on the front, at 14, on to the functional unit through a sector 11".
  • the structure 8 is packed together as shown in Figure 1 through a combined telescopic sliding and rotational movement of the sectors 11 as determined by the fulcra 14, 15.
  • said partition wall 8 substantially "disappears" when the door 3 is closed, thereby ensuring the advantageous condition that enables the dishwashing machine to operate in an optimum manner under a very low generation of water-induced noise and a highest possible effectiveness of the rotating spray arms 5 and 7.
  • the wall 8 does not create any substantial encumbrance inside the washing vessel when the machine is closed.
  • the sectors 11 dispose themselves in a mutually adjacent, juxtaposed arrangement in a substantially vertical position when the door 3 is closed. This most advantageously enables the partition wall 8 to be automatically flushed, i.e. washed in its compacted position during each washing cycle performed by the machine.
