Definitions

  • the present invention relates to dishwasher baskets, and in particular to a basket provided with a mobile front drop-tray.
  • a dishwasher basket according to the preamble of independent claim 1 is for example disclosed in US 2002/148493.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a basket which overcomes the above-mentioned drawbacks.
  • the main advantage of the dishwasher basket according to the present invention is that of being able to be pulled out even beyond the top edge of the door, to have the greatest ease of loading yet without risks of floor soiling or of creating dirt build-up areas on the door internal surface.
  • a second advantage of this dishwasher basket is that of providing the automatic movement of the drop-tray without requiring an intervention by the user.
  • a further advantage of the present basket stems from the mobility of the drop-tray which is not an obstacle to the washing jets in the washing phase.
  • Still another advantage of this basket is given by its simple, cheap and reliable structure which does not require any change to the dishwasher, whereby it can be applied as replacement basket to an existing dishwasher.
  • a dishwasher basket according to the invention conventionally includes a structure C of metallic wire, provided with wheels W for a smooth sliding along the guides formed in the washing tank and on the door.
  • the novel aspect of the present basket is given by the presence of a front drop-tray D, extending below the front portion of the basket with a width substantially equal to the width of structure C.
  • the drop-tray D is mobile along lateral arcuate guides G, secured to structure C, extending over an arc of about 90° so that it can move between a substantially vertical position (figs.1, 2, 5) and a substantially horizontal position (fig.4).
  • the concave profile of the drop-tray D is capable of properly retaining the drops and rests falling from the dishes loaded in the front portion of the basket. Therefore even if this portion is located beyond the top edge of the door there is no risk of soiling the floor or the door in the area not reached by the washing jets.
  • the means which provide the automatic movement of the drop-tray D are a central longitudinal rod R and a return spring S.
  • the rod R a little shorter than the basket, is pivoted on the drop-tray D and slidably mounted on suitable supports H secured to the basket structure C, while spring S is secured between the drop-tray D (or rod R) and structure C.
  • a conventional basket introduced into a dishwasher having an internal height Y of door K which is significantly smaller than the basket length L can not be pulled out beyond limit E. In this position the basket remains for a significant length LI inside the washing tank T, while only the external length LE is easily accessible for the user (fig.3).
  • a basket according to the invention introduced in the same dishwasher can on the contrary be pulled out beyond limit E up to a new limit E', well beyond the edge of door K, thanks to the drop-tray D which covers the underlying area.
  • the increase F of the pull-out length which is added to the external length leads to a new external length LE' greater than the previous one, while the internal length LI' is correspondingly reduced. This results in a greater accessibility to the rear portion of the basket and therefore a greater ease of loading for the user (fig.4).
  • rod R projects from the rear of the basket in that spring S has pulled the drop-tray D into abutment against the rear end of guides G, so that it is arranged horizontally below the front portion of the basket to cover the area between limits E and E'.
  • washing jets J properly reach the dishes located in the front portion of the basket, and they also provide the cleaning of the drop-tray D.
  • the driving means could also carry out the function of supporting the drop-tray D so that the lateral guides G can be dispensed with.
  • the driving means could also carry out the function of supporting the drop-tray D so that the lateral guides G can be dispensed with.
