Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a regulation device for the upper rack of a dishwasher.
  • the regulating plate is defined by a prismatic track which is provided with a catching element for each operational position, while the selecting element is defined by a slide which is connected in sliding fashion to the track, and is provided with an elastic tongue which is suitable for being snap engaged in the catching elements and is also suitable for being manually disengaged in the case that it is necessary to regulate the height of the rack.
  • the aim of the present invention is to produce a regulation device for the upper rack of a dishwasher, which will be free of the above-descried disadvantages.
  • a regulation device for the upper rack of a dishwasher which is suitable for regulating an operating position of the upper rack itself and comprising at least one regulating plate defining a number of operational washing positions of the rack itself; and at least one selecting element, which is integral with the rack and is coupled in selectively disengageable fashion to the regulation plate in order to permit the selective regulation of each operational washing position;
  • the regulation device being characterised by the fact of comprising, in addition, at least one vertical guide track which is coupled in sliding fashion to the said selecting element, and one or more revolving elements which are interposed between the vertical guide track and the selecting element themelves.
  • the American patent No. US 6,974,040 describes a regulation device for the upper rack which comprises two regulating plates which are arranged parallel to each other at a determined distance from one another, a selecting element for each plate, and a control lever, which is connected to the two selecting elements in order to disengage the selecting elemento from the relative plates and permit the regulation of the height of the upper rack.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to produce a regulation device for the upper rack of a dishwasher which will provide an easy, stable mobility of the upper rack, even when the upper rack itself is loaded, and which will be both robust and cost-effective to produce.
  • the above-defined regulation device will thus, preferably, comprise two guide tracks which are parallel to each other and which are engaged in respective housings obtained through the selecting element; each housing defining a respective housing for the said revolving elements.
  • the number 1 indicates a regulation device for the upper rack 2 of a dishwasher in its entirety, of which only two horizontal tracks for the extraction of the upper rack 2 itelf are illustrated for reasons of simplicity.
  • the device 1 is interposed between the tracks 3 and the rack 2 in order to regular an operating position of the rack 2 itself, or rather to regulate the height of the rack 2 in relation to the tracks 3, and comprising, in the form of embodiment which is illustrated, a support frame 4 and, for each side of the rack 2, a regulating plate 5 which is integral with the frame 4 and which defines a number of operational washing positions of the rack 2 itself.
  • the frame 4 is coupled in extractable fashion to the tracks 3 by means of at least two rollers 6 for each side of the rack 2, and comprises a transverse rear bar 7 and, for each side of the rack 2, a bracket 8 which is integral with and transverse to the bar 7.
  • Each racket 8 is parallel to the relative track 3, and is integral with the relative plate 5, which extends transversely towards the top of the bracket 8 itself, and presents a number of catching elements 9 which are arranged vertically spaced from each other in order to each define a relative operating position of the upper rack 2.
  • the frame 4 comprises, in addition, for each side of the rack 2, two vertical guide tracks 10, which are integral with the relative bracket 8 and which extend transervsely towards the top of the bracket 8 itself, and are arranged parallel to each other opposite the relative plate 5 and at a determined distance from the plate 5 itself.
  • Each guide track 10 presents a substantially flattened shape in a direction which is parallel to the tracks 3, and comprises, in addition, two longitudinal shaped grooves 11, which are obtained opposite the track 10 itself as well as opposite the relative plate 5, and which extend for the whole of the length of the track 10.
  • the device 1 comprises, in addition, for each side of the rack 2, a selecting element 20, which is integral with the rack 2 and which is coupled in selectively disengageable fashion to the regulating plate 5 in order to permit the selective regulation of each operational washing position.
  • Each selecting element 20 comprises a central body 21 and two arms 22, which extend in opposite directions from the central body 21 itself and present, at the respective free ends 23, a respective tubular housing 30 which is engaged by a relative track 10.
  • the selecting element 20 is provided with a number of clips 25 which are distributed along the body 21 and the arms 22 in order to be snap hooked to the mesh elements which make up the rack 2.
  • each housing 30 presents a base wall 31 which is provided with a hole 32 which is shaped substantially like the external profile of the relative track 10, two lateral walls 33 which are arranged facing and parallel to the relative grooves 11, and an upper opening 34, which is also engaged by the relative track 10 but which, unlike the hole 32, is not shaped like the external profile of the track 10 itself in that, in correspondence with each groove 11, a passage 35 of defined dimensions is left.
  • each housing 30 comprises a plate 36, which is engaged and crossed by the relative track 10, and is arranged in such a way as to close the relative opening 34.
  • each device 1 comprises a number of revolving bodies 50, which are preferably but not necessarily spherical bodies, and which are housed inside the housings 30 in such a way as to form a row 51 for each groove 11 inside each housing 30.
  • each row 51 is substantially compressed between a relative wall 30 and a relative groove 11, and is suitable for sliding inside the relative groove 11 in order to permit a gentle, but at the same time stable, movement of the rack 2 from one operating position to another.
  • the revolving bodies 50 are inserted into the housings 30 by means of the passages 35, and are closed inside the housings 30 themselves by means of the mounting of the plates 36.
  • each row 51 is made up of three revolving bodies: it is obvious, however, that the number of revolving bodies 50 in each row 51 may be varied from one particular case to another and is used here purely as an illustration.
  • each track 10 may present a single groove 11, just as, in addition, each bracket 8 may be provided with a single track 10, which would then co-operate with the track 10 of the other bracket 8 in order to maintain and support the rack 2 in the correct operating position.
  • the device 1 comprises, in addition, an elastic element 60 which is mounted in rotatable fashion on the body 21, and mounted in passing fashion through a window 61 which is obtained in the body 21 itself in order to be snap inserted into inside one of the catching elements 9.
  • each elastic element 60 into a relative catching element 9 determines the positioning of the rack 2 in a relative operating position and, more particularly, the raising of the rack 2 occurs by simply pulling the rack 2 itself and thus causing the progressive insertion and disinsertion of the elastic elements 60 in the various catching elements 9, while the lowering of the rack 2 occurs by preventively disengaging each elastic element 60 from the relative catching element 9 and maintaining it in a disengaged state against the elastic return action of the elastic element 60 itself for the entire operation of lowering the rack 2 itself.
  • the device 1 comprises, finally, a hydraulic coupling 70 which is supported by the bar 7 opposite the rack 2 in order to connect the rotor 71 to a hydraulic circuit of the dishwasher, and a flexible coupling 72 which is interposed between the rotor 71 and the hydraulic coupling 70 in order to permit the regulation of the upper rack itself.
  • the hydraulic coupling 70 is defined by a cone which tapers towards the outside of the bar 7 and which is suitable for being connected to a fixed water supply inlet for the dishwasher, while the coupling 72 is connected on one side to the hydraulic coupling 70, and on the opposite side to a tube 73 which is made of rigid plastic material, which extends below the rack 2 until the point where it meets the entry of the rotor 71.
  • a shield 74 has been planned, which is of a substantially conical shape and inside of which the coupling 72 itself may move freely during any operations which regulate the rack 2.
  • the above-described device other than permitting a simple, easy movement and vertical regulation of the rack 2, also means that the regulation can be carried out with precision and that this operation can be performed with ease while maintaining an optimum rigidity of the rack 2 when it is fully loaded.
  • the device 1 may also be mounted onto a frame which is similar to the frame 4, but which is an integral part of the dishwasher and not of the device 1 itself.
  • the device 1 may only comprise a single regulating plate 5 mounted in correspondence to a relative side of the rack 2, and to a single track 10 for each side of the rack 2 themselves.
