Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Geschirrkorb einer Geschirrspülmaschine zur Aufnahme von Geschirrstücken mit einem Boden und mit den Boden umrahmenden Seitenteilen, wobei an dem Boden mindestens zwei im Wesentlichen parallel verlaufende Stachelreihen für die Halterung der Geschirrstücke angeordnet sind, welche jeweils aus mindestens einem Stachelbasisdraht und mindestens einer daran befestigten Stachelreihe aus einzelnen Stacheldrähten bestehen sowie eine Geschirrspülmaschine mit einem entsprechenden Geschirrkorb.The present invention relates to a crockery basket of a dishwasher for holding crockery pieces with a bottom and with the bottom framing side parts, wherein at least two substantially parallel rows of spikes for holding the crockery pieces are arranged on the bottom, each consisting of at least one spiked base wire and at least one attached sting row consist of individual barbed wires and a dishwasher with a corresponding crockery basket.

Aus der DE 72 35 591 U ist ein Geschirrkorb bekannt, welcher einen Boden aufweist, der von Seitenteilen umrahmt ist. Boden und Seitenteile bestehen aus einzelnen Drähten, die miteinander verbunden sind. Zur Aufnahme von Geschirrstücken sind am Boden des Geschirrkorbes parallel verlaufende Welldrähte vorgesehen, an welchen Stacheldrähte mit jeweils einem Ende fest angeordnet sind. Das andere Ende des jeweiligen Stacheldrahtes ragt frei in das Korbinnere hinein. Die Welldrähte dienen zusammen mit den Stacheldrähten zur Aufnahme von Geschirrstücken. Nachteilig bei dieser Ausführung eines Geschirrkorbes ist die aufwendige Fertigung des Geschirrkorbes aufgrund der Welldrähte. Die Welldrähte, welche sich im Bodenbereich befinden, haben den weiteren Nachteil, dass zwischen den Welldrähten und den Stacheldrähten aufgenommene Geschirrstücke, insbesondere kleine Teller, bis in einen Bereich unterhalb des Geschirrkorbes ragen. Hierdurch ist eine Beschädigung der Geschirrstücke durch einen häufig unterhalb des Geschirrkorbes angeordneten Sprüharm nicht auszuschließen. Außerdem ist durch die Gestaltung der Stacheldrähte eine Befüllung des Geschirrkorbes mit im Wesentlichen zylindrischen Geschirrstücken, wie zum Beispiel Gläsern schwierig. Die Gläser werden nur instabil aufgenommen und können dadurch beim Spülvorgang beschädigt werden.From the DE 72 35 591 U a crockery basket is known, which has a bottom, which is framed by side panels. Bottom and side panels consist of individual wires connected together. To accommodate pieces of crockery parallel corrugated wires are provided at the bottom of the crockery basket, are fixedly arranged on each barbed wires, each having one end. The other end of each barbed wire protrudes freely into the basket interior. The corrugated wires are used together with the barbed wires to accommodate pieces of crockery. A disadvantage of this embodiment of a dish rack is the complicated production of the dish rack due to the corrugated wires. The corrugated wires, which are located in the bottom area, have the further disadvantage that crockery pieces picked up between the corrugated wires and the barbed wires, in particular small plates, protrude into a region below the crockery basket. As a result, damage to the pieces of crockery can not be ruled out by a spray arm which is often arranged below the crockery basket. In addition, filling of the crockery basket with substantially cylindrical pieces of crockery, such as glasses, is difficult due to the design of the barbed wires. The glasses are only picked up unstable and can be damaged during the flushing process.

Aus der DE 299 21 601 U1 ist ein Geschirrkorb für Geschirrspülmaschinen bekannt, bei welchem am Boden eine Stachelreihe für die Halterung der Geschirrstücke angeordnet ist. Die Stachelreihe besteht aus einem Stachelbasisdraht und einer daran befestigten Stachelreihe aus einzelnen Stacheldrähten. Der Stachelbasisdraht liegt dabei auf dem Boden des Geschirrkorbes, welcher ein Drahtgitter ist, auf. Die Geschirrstücke werden durch zwei Stachelreihen zwischen jeweils zwei Stacheldrähten gehalten. Die Stachelreihen können bei Bedarf umgeklappt und an den Boden angelegt werden. Die Lagerung erfolgt mit zusätzlichen, gebogenen Drähten in der Basismatte des Geschirrkorbes, welche den Stachelbasisdraht umgreifen. Nachteilig ist hierbei, dass die Lagerstelle gleichzeitig auch die Stelle ist, an der das Geschirrstück zu halten ist. Eine stabile und schonende Halterung des Geschirrstückes ist damit nicht gewährleistet. Sind die Geschirrstücke beispielsweise kleine Teller oder Gläser, so ragen diese durch die Basismatte des Geschirrkorbes hindurch und können durch eine Bewegung eines Sprüharmes, welcher unterhalb des Gitterkorbes in der Geschirrspülmaschine angeordnet ist, beschädigt werden. Außerdem kann das Geschirrstück mit Drähten der Basismatte des Bodens des Geschirrkorbes in Berührung kommen, wodurch das Geschirrstück nur instabil gehalten wird und ebenfalls beschädigt werden kann. Zylindrische Geschirrstücke wie Gläser oder Becher werden durch die Stacheldrähte auch bei aufgestellten Stachelreihen nicht stabil gehalten und können dadurch beschädigt werden.From the DE 299 21 601 U1 a dish rack for dishwashers is known in which a row of spikes for holding the pieces of crockery is arranged at the bottom. The spine row consists of a spiked base wire and a row of spiked single barbed wires attached to it. The spiky base wire lies on the bottom of the dish rack, which is a wire mesh on. The pieces of crockery are separated by two rows of barbs between each two barbed wires held. The rows of barbs can be folded down as needed and put on the ground. The storage takes place with additional, curved wires in the base mat of the crockery basket, which surround the spiked base wire. The disadvantage here is that the bearing is at the same time also the point at which the piece of crockery is to be held. A stable and gentle holder of the piece of crockery is therefore not guaranteed. If the pieces of tableware are, for example, small plates or glasses, they protrude through the base mat of the dish rack and can be damaged by a movement of a spray arm, which is arranged underneath the grid basket in the dishwasher. In addition, the piece of tableware may come into contact with wires of the base mat of the bottom of the dish rack, whereby the piece of tableware is only kept unstable and can also be damaged. Cylindrical utensils such as glasses or cups are not held stable by the barbed wires, even when erected rows of spikes and can be damaged.

Die WO 2005/107570 A1 offenbart einen Geschirrkorb gemäß Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1, wobei zusätzlich vorgesehen ist, dass die einzelnen Stachelreihen umklappbar sind, um die Flexibilität des Geschirrkorbes zu erhöhen.The WO 2005/107570 A1 discloses a crockery basket according to the preamble of claim 1, wherein it is additionally provided that the individual rows of barbs are foldable in order to increase the flexibility of the crockery basket.

Schließlich beschreibt die JP 10 033454 A einen Geschirrkorb einer Geschirrspülmaschine, bei dem lediglich U-förmige Geschirrhalter zum Einsatz kommen, deren Abkantungen einen besonders sicheren Halt des Geschirrs gewährleisten sollen.Finally, that describes JP 10 033454 A a dish rack of a dishwasher, in which only U-shaped tableware holders are used, the bends to ensure a particularly secure hold of the dishes.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, die oben beschriebenen Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine stabile Lage eines Geschirrstückes, insbesondere im Wesentlichen eines zylindrischen Geschirrstückes, in dem Geschirrkorb sicherzustellen, dabei Beschädigungen am Geschirrstück zu vermeiden und die Spülleistung und Trocknung zu verbessern. Der Geschirrkorb soll darüber hinaus flexibel in der Möglichkeit seiner Beladung sein.The object of the present invention is to avoid the disadvantages described above and to ensure a stable position of a piece of crockery, in particular substantially a cylindrical piece of crockery in the crockery basket, thereby avoiding damage to the piece of crockery and to improve the flushing performance and drying. The dish basket should also be flexible in the possibility of its loading.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch einen Geschirrkorb und eine Geschirrspülmaschine mit den Merkmalen der unabhängigen Patentansprüche.The object is achieved by a crockery basket and a dishwasher with the features of the independent claims.

Erfindungsgemäß weist ein Geschirrkorb einer Geschirrspülmaschine zur Aufnahme von Geschirrstücken einen Boden sowie Seitenteile auf, welche den Boden umrahmen. An dem Boden sind mindestens zwei im Wesentlichen parallel verlaufende Stachelreihen für die Halterung der Geschirrstücke angeordnet. Jede Stachelreihe besteht aus mindestens einem Stachelbasisdraht und mindestens einer daran befestigten Stachelreihe aus einzelnen Stacheldrähten. Zumindest zwei benachbarte Stacheldrähte einer Stachelreihe weisen eine in Richtung auf die zweite Stachelreihe gerichtete Abkantung auf. Die einzelnen Stacheldrähte sind in einem Abstand von dem Stachelbasisdraht mit einem Verbindungsdraht verbunden. Die Abkantung ist im aufgestellten Zustand der Stachelreihe vom Boden beabstandet. Durch die Abkantung ergibt sich eine Auflagerstelle für das insbesondere zylindrische Geschirrstück, beispielsweise einen Becher oder ein Trinkglas. Der Rand des Geschirrstückes wird dabei auf der Abkantung aufgelegt und der von dem Rand beabstandete Teil des Geschirrstückes stützt sich an der benachbarten Stachelreihe ab. Das Geschirrstück liegt hierdurch schräg zwischen den beiden Stachelreihen und ist dennoch stabil gehalten. Eine Beschädigung des Geschirrstückes wird hierdurch zuverlässig vermieden. Alternativ zu den Gläsern können Teller zwischen vier Stacheldrähten zweier benachbarter Stachelreihen aufgenommen werden. Vorzugsweise ist zumindest ein Ende des Stachelbasisdrahtes gekantet, das heißt gebogen und an dem Boden drehbar gelagert. Die Befestigung des Stachelbasisdrahtes an dem Boden erzeugt eine gegenüber dem Boden klappbare Stachelreihe in dem Geschirrkorb. Der Geschirrkorb selbst wird hierdurch vielseitig einsetzbar. Bei aufgestellten Stachelreihen können beispielsweise Teller oder Schälchen und durch die Abkantung der Stacheldrähte auch Gläser geordnet und zur besseren Reinigung und Vermeidung von Beschädigungen beabstandet zwischen den Stacheldrähten aufgenommen werden. Zur Reinigung von größeren Geschirrstücken kann die Stachelreihe weggeklappt werden und somit Platz zur Aufnahme von beispielsweise Töpfen schaffen.
Mit dem erfindungsgemäß konstruierten Geschirrkorb wird die sichere Positionierung insbesondere eines zylindrischen Geschirrstückes, zum Beispiel eines Glases oder einer Tasse in einer Stachelreihe ermöglicht, die ursprünglich für Teller und Schälchen ausgelegt ist. Die Halterung des Geschirrstückes wird zwischen den Stacheldrähten ohne Zusatzdrähte oder Zusatzteile auf eine einfache und kostengünstige Weise und mit einem Abstand eines Geschirrstückes von dem Boden eines Geschirrkorbes bewirkt. Die zylindrischen Geschirrstücke werden gemäß der Erfindung nicht in der Ebene des Bodens gehalten, sondern in einer darüber liegenden Ebene, wodurch nach unten ragende Teile der Geschirrstücke in vorteilhafter Weise innerhalb des Geschirrkorbes verbleiben. Hierdurch wird sowohl eine stabile Lagerung der Geschirrstücke und damit wiederum Schutz vor Beschädigung erzielt als auch vermieden, dass die Geschirrstücke außerhalb des Geschirrkorbes durch bewegte Teile innerhalb der Geschirrspülmaschine beschädigt werden. Außerdem wird vermieden, dass die Geschirrstücke beim Aus- und Einschieben des Geschirrkorbes in bzw. aus der Geschirrspülmaschine an Gehäuseteilen der Geschirrspülmaschine anstoßen und hierdurch beschädigt werden könnten.
Die erfindungsgemäße Halterung der Geschirrstücke in den Stachelreihen wird ohne wesentlichen zusätzlichen Aufwand bei der Herstellung des Geschirrkorbes erzielt. Durch die Abkantung der Stacheldrähte wird die Stelle, an welcher die Geschirrstücke gehalten werden, gegenüber dem Boden abgehoben. Werden die zylindrischen Geschirrstücke zumindest teilweise auf der Abkantung der Stacheldrähte aufgestellt und gehalten, so ragen diese Geschirrstücke, insbesondere Trinkgläser, Becher oder Tassen, in den Bereich zwischen Abkantung und Stachelbasisdraht bzw. Boden, aber nicht bis unterhalb des Bodens. Sie sind somit gegen eine Beschädigung von unten geschützt. Üblicherweise können in Stachelreihen, die für Teller ausgelegt sind, nur flache Gegenstände positioniert werden. Für Gläser oder Tassen würde ein ungünstiger Ablagewinkel entstehen und sie können daher nicht optimal in dem Geschirrkorb angeordnet werden. Im Gegensatz dazu ermöglicht die Halterung eines Geschirrstücks zwischen mindestens zwei benachbarten Stachelreihen, die nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Prinzip konstruiert sind, in einer Stachelreihe für Teller und Schälchen auch zylindrische Geschirrstücke in für das Spülergebnis und die Trocknung idealen Situation anzuordnen. Dadurch wird eine höhere Flexibilität des Geschirrkorbes für den Kunden erreicht.
Idealerweise werden die Geschirrstücke durch zwei gleichartig ausgebildete Stachelreihen gehalten. Die zylindrischen Geschirrteile können dadurch an der einen oder der anderen, parallel dazu verlaufenden Stachelreihe an deren Abkantung aufgelegt werden. Jedes einzelne Geschirrstück ist insbesondere an zwei parallel verlaufenden Stachelreihen und zwischen insgesamt vier Stacheldrähten angeordnet. Das Geschirrstück wird somit vorzugsweise oberhalb des Bodens gehalten. Ist die Stachelreihe ggf. zweckmäßigerweise zusätzlich drehbar gelagert, so wird eine flexible Einteilung des Geschirrkorbes erreicht.According to the invention, a crockery basket of a dishwasher for holding crockery pieces has a base and side parts which frame the floor. At least two substantially parallel rows of spikes for holding the pieces of tableware are arranged on the floor. Each spine row consists of at least one spiked base wire and at least one spiked row of single barbed wires attached thereto. At least two adjacent barbed wires of a row of barbs have a directed towards the second row of barbs fold. The individual barbed wires are connected to a connecting wire at a distance from the barbed base wire. The fold is spaced in the erected state of the spiked row from the ground. The fold results in a bearing point for the particular cylindrical piece of crockery, such as a mug or a drinking glass. The edge of the piece of crockery is placed on the fold and the distance from the edge of the piece of crockery is supported on the adjacent row of barbs. The piece of tableware is thereby obliquely between the two rows of spikes and is still held stable. Damage to the piece of tableware is thereby reliably avoided. As an alternative to the glasses, plates can be picked up between four barbed wires of two adjacent spikes. Preferably, at least one end of the spiked base wire is folded, that is bent and rotatably mounted on the ground. The attachment of the spiked base wire to the floor creates a spiked row of spikes in the dish rack. The crockery basket itself becomes versatile. When erecting rows of stingers, for example plates or bowls and arranged by the bending of the barbed wires and glasses and spaced for better cleaning and avoiding damage between the barbed wires can be added. To clean larger pieces of crockery, the row of barbs can be folded away and thus create space for receiving pots, for example.
With the crockery basket constructed according to the invention, the secure positioning of, in particular, a cylindrical piece of crockery, for example a glass or a cup, in a row of barbs is made possible, which is originally designed for plates and bowls. The holder of the piece of crockery is effected between the barbed wires without additional wires or accessories in a simple and cost effective manner and with a distance of a piece of crockery from the bottom of a crockery basket. The cylindrical utensils are according to the invention is not held in the plane of the ground, but in an overlying plane, whereby downwardly projecting parts of the pieces of crockery advantageously remain within the crockery basket. As a result, both a stable storage of the pieces of crockery and thus protection against damage is achieved and avoided that the pieces of crockery outside the crockery basket are damaged by moving parts inside the dishwasher. In addition, it is avoided that the utensils pieces during removal and insertion of the dish rack in or out of the dishwasher abut housing parts of the dishwasher and thereby could be damaged.
The inventive holder of the pieces of crockery in the rows of barbs is achieved without significant additional effort in the manufacture of the crockery basket. By bending the barbed wires, the point at which the pieces of crockery are held, lifted off the ground. If the cylindrical pieces of crockery are placed and held at least partially on the barbed wire barbs, these crockery pieces, in particular drinking glasses, cups or cups, protrude into the area between the fold and the barbed wire or ground, but not below the floor. They are thus protected against damage from below. Typically, in spiked rows that are designed for plates, only flat objects can be positioned. For glasses or cups would create an unfavorable shelf angle and therefore they can not be optimally placed in the dish rack. In contrast, the holder of a piece of tableware between at least two adjacent row of spikes, which are constructed according to the principle of the invention in a row of spikes for plates and bowls also cylindrical pieces of crockery in ideal for the dishwashing result and drying situation to arrange. As a result, a higher flexibility of the dish rack for the customer is achieved.
Ideally, the pieces of crockery are held by two similar trained rows of spikes. The cylindrical crockery parts can be placed at one or the other, parallel thereto spiked row at the fold. Each piece of tableware is arranged in particular on two parallel rows of spikes and between a total of four barbed wires. The piece of tableware is thus preferably held above the floor. Is the Spiked row optionally expediently additionally rotatably mounted, a flexible division of the dish rack is achieved.

Vorteilhafterweise besteht der Boden aus einer Basismatte aus Draht. Diese Basismatte, welche im Wesentlichen einem Drahtgitter entspricht, ist kostengünstig herstellbar und gewährleistet eine gute Zugänglichkeit an das Geschirrstück für die Reinigungsflüssigkeit sowie eine gute Trocknung des Geschirrstückes. Die Basismatte aus Draht ermöglicht eine gute Stabilität des Geschirrkorbes bei geringst möglicher Abdeckung des Geschirrstückes gegenüber der Reinigungsflüssigkeit sowie bestmöglicher Abtropfung des trocknenden Geschirrstückes.Advantageously, the floor consists of a base mat of wire. This base mat, which essentially corresponds to a wire mesh, is inexpensive to produce and ensures good accessibility to the piece of tableware for the cleaning fluid and a good drying of the piece of crockery. The base mat made of wire allows a good stability of the crockery basket with the least possible coverage of the piece of crockery compared to the cleaning liquid and the best possible dripping of the drying piece of crockery.

Ist der Basisdraht mit seinen Enden an dem Boden bzw. an der Basismatte insbesondere mittels jeweils einem Drehlagerelement angeordnet, so wird eine besonders einfache Verbindung zwischen Basismatte des Bodens und Stachelbasisdraht der Stachelreihe erzielt. Das Drehlagerelement kann entweder vorzugsweise durch die Formgebung der Drähte zueinander erfolgen, oder es wird insbesondere ein separates Drehlagerelement verwendet, welches mit dem Boden bzw. der Basismatte verbunden wird und den Stachelbasisdraht drehbar führt. Die Stachelreihe wird damit flexibel in dem Geschirrkorb angeordnet und ermöglicht somit einerseits eine stabile Halterung der Geschirrstücke und andererseits die Schaffung eines großvolumigen Raumes ohne Einteilung, in welchem auch große Geschirrstücke gelagert und gereinigt werden können.If the base wire is arranged with its ends on the floor or on the base mat, in particular by means of a respective rotary bearing element, then a particularly simple connection between base mat of the floor and spiked base wire of the row of spikes is achieved. The rotary bearing element can either be effected preferably by the shaping of the wires relative to one another, or in particular a separate rotary bearing element is used, which is connected to the base or the base mat and rotatably guides the spine base wire. The spiked row is thus arranged flexibly in the dish rack and thus allows on the one hand a stable mounting of the dishes and on the other hand the creation of a large volume without disposition in which even large pieces of tableware can be stored and cleaned.

Ist eines der Lagerelemente zur drehbaren Lagerung der Stachelreihe insbesondere ein Loslager und das andere Lagerelement vorzugsweise ein Festlager für den Basisdraht, so können entstehende Fertigungstoleranzen der Lagerelemente, der Befestigungsstellen der Lagerelemente am Boden bzw. der Basismatte und der Stachelreihe mit dem Stachelbasisdraht in vorteilhafter Weise einfach ausgeglichen werden.If one of the bearing elements for rotatably supporting the row of spines is in particular a movable bearing and the other bearing element is preferably a fixed bearing for the base wire, then resulting manufacturing tolerances of the bearing elements, the fastening points of the bearing elements on the bottom or the base mat and the spiked row with the spiked base wire advantageously simple be compensated.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist die Abkantung zudem vom Boden beabstandet angeordnet. Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, dass auch bei einer Schrägstellung des zylindrischen Geschirrstückes kein Teil des Geschirrstückes in den Bereich des Bodens des Geschirrkorbes gelangt oder sogar durch diesen hindurch ragt. Eine Beschädigung des Geschirrstückes wird damit verhindert und eine stabile Lagerung des Geschirrstückes gewährleistet.According to the invention, the fold is also arranged spaced from the ground. This ensures that even with an inclined position of the cylindrical piece of crockery no part of the piece of crockery reaches the area of the bottom of the crockery basket or even protrudes through it. Damage to the piece of crockery is thus prevented and stable storage of the piece of crockery guaranteed.

Weist das Lagerelement in vorteilhafter Weise eine Raste für das Ende des Basisstacheldrahtes auf, so wird die Stachelreihe in der entsprechenden Position, insbesondere in der aufrechten Stellung gehalten. Die Geschirrstücke können dadurch gut in die Stachelreihen eingeführt werden, ohne dass diese versuchen, wegzuklappen. Nur bei einer beabsichtigten Drehung der Stachelreihe ist diese durch eine etwas höhere Krafteinwirkung aus der ersten gerasteten Stellung in die andere Stellung zu bewegen.If the bearing element advantageously has a catch for the end of the base barbed wire, the row of barbs is held in the corresponding position, in particular in the upright position. The pieces of crockery can thus be easily inserted into the rows of barbs without them trying to fold away. Only with an intended rotation of the spiked row is this move by a slightly higher force from the first latched position to the other position.

Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Abkantung insbesondere eine Doppelkantung ist. Bereits hierdurch entsteht eine Auflagerstelle für zylindrische Geschirrstücke. Die Abkantung soll so erfolgen, dass sie in Richtung auf die zweite Stachelreihe hin zeigt. Der Zwischenraum zwischen den beiden Stachelreihen wird dadurch verengt und bildet eine Aufnahmestelle für das zylindrische Geschirrstück. Die beiden Endstücke des Stacheldrahtes verlaufen bei einer Herstellung der Abkantung mittels einer Doppelkantung nicht parallel. Soll die Parallelität der Enden des Stacheldrahtes gewahrt bleiben, so ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Abkantung durch eine Dreifachkantung erzielt wird. Die Abkantung ist dabei in Form eines U gebildet. Auf dem zum freien Ende des Stacheldrahtes hin zeigenden Schenkel wird das Geschirrstück aufgelegt.It is advantageous if the fold is in particular a double edge. This already creates a bearing for cylindrical pieces of crockery. The fold should be made so that it points in the direction of the second row of barbs. The space between the two rows of spikes is thereby narrowed and forms a receiving point for the cylindrical piece of tableware. The two end pieces of the barbed wire run in a production of the fold by means of a double edge not parallel. If the parallelism of the ends of the barbed wire is to be maintained, it is advantageous if the fold is achieved by a triple fold. The fold is formed in the form of a U. The piece of crockery is placed on the leg pointing towards the free end of the barbed wire.

Vorteilhafterweise weisen die beiden Enden des Stachelbasisdrahtes fluchtend zueinander verlaufende Bereiche auf, welche die Drehachse der Stachelreihe bilden. Besondere Bauteile oder Maßnahmen sind hierdurch nicht mehr erforderlich. Die Drehung der Stachelreihen ist vorteilhaft schon durch die Formgebung des Basisdrahtes möglich.Advantageously, the two ends of the spiked base wire have mutually aligned areas which form the axis of rotation of the spiked row. Special components or measures are no longer required. The rotation of the rows of barbs is advantageous even by the shape of the base wire possible.

Ist die Abkantung, wie im Rahmen der Erfindung vorgesehen, in einem Abstand vom Basisdraht bzw. von dem Boden des Geschirrkorbes angeordnet, so führt dies zu einem entsprechenden Abstand der Halterungsstellen für das Geschirrstück. Das zylindrische Geschirrstück wird dabei zwischen zwei Stachelreihen aufgenommen, befindet sich zwischen insgesamt vier Stacheldrähten und liegt auf den beiden Abkantungen der ersten Stachelreihe sowie an den Spitzen der zweiten Stachelreihe auf. Das Geschirrstück wird hierdurch stabil aufgenommen und zudem vor Beschädigung geschützt.If the fold, as provided in the context of the invention, is arranged at a distance from the base wire or from the bottom of the dish rack, this leads to a corresponding spacing of the holding points for the piece of tableware. The cylindrical piece of crockery is picked up between two rows of spikes, is located between a total of four barbed wires and rests on the two bends of the first row of spikes and on the tips of the second row of spikes. The piece of crockery is thereby stably absorbed and also protected from damage.

Sind der erste Abstand der Abkantung vom Boden und ein weiterer Abstand der Abkantung von den Spitzen der zugeordneten Stacheldrähte der benachbarten zweiten Stachelreihe insbesondere derart aufeinander abgestimmt, dass zur Aufnahme vorgesehene Gläser in einem Winkel von vorzugsweise mindestens 20°, bevorzugt in einem Winkel von etwa 30° gehalten sind, so wird bewirkt, dass sich keine Wasserflecken beim Trocknen der Geschirrstücke ergeben. Das Wasser kann rechtzeitig ablaufen und staut sich nicht. Das Trocknungsergebnis ist hierdurch sehr gut.If the first distance of the fold from the bottom and a further distance of the fold from the tips of the associated barbed wires of the adjacent second row of barbs are in particular matched to one another such that provided for receiving glasses at an angle of preferably at least 20 °, preferably at an angle of about 30 °, it is ensured that no water stains arise when drying the pieces of tableware. The water can drain in time and does not build up. The drying result is very good.

Sind der erste Abstand und der weitere Abstand der Abkantung von den Spitzen der zugeordneten Stacheldrähte der benachbarten zweiten Stachelreihe in vorteilhafter Weise derart aufeinander abgestimmt, dass zur Aufnahme vorgesehene Gläser nicht durch den Boden des Geschirrkorbes ragen oder die Drähte der Basismatte berühren, so wird eine Beschädigung der Geschirrstücke beim Einschieben des Geschirrkorbes in die Spülmaschine oder durch den Sprüharm wirkungsvoll vermieden.If the first distance and the further distance of the fold from the tips of the associated barbed wires of the adjacent second row of barbs are matched to one another in an advantageous manner such that glasses intended for holding do not protrude through the bottom of the crockery basket or touch the wires of the base mat, then damage occurs the utensils effectively avoided when inserting the dish rack in the dishwasher or by the spray.

Vorzugsweise sind die Stacheldrähte in Bezug auf den Basisdraht schräg ausgerichtet. Hierdurch wird die Aufnahme von voluminösen Geschirrstücken erleichtert und durch eine Schrägstellung der Geschirrstücke sowohl die Reinigung als auch die Trocknung der Geschirrstücke verbessert. Durch die Schrägstellung der Geschirrstücke entstehen keine oder nur wenige Stellen an dem Geschirrstück, welche horizontal verlaufen, so dass das Wasser schnell und ohne Trockenspuren zu hinterlassen ablaufen kann.Preferably, the barbed wires are obliquely aligned with respect to the base wire. As a result, the inclusion of voluminous pieces of crockery is facilitated and improved by an inclination of the crockery both the cleaning and the drying of the crockery. The skewing of the pieces of crockery creates no or only a few places on the piece of crockery, which run horizontally, so that the water can drain off quickly and without leaving any traces of dry.

Eine Geschirrspülmaschine mit mindestens einem oben beschriebenen Geschirrkorb ist kostengünstig herstellbar und liefert ein sehr gutes Reinigungs- und Trocknungsergebnis der darin befindlichen Geschirrstücke.A dishwasher with at least one crockery basket described above is inexpensive to produce and provides a very good cleaning and drying results of the crockery contained therein.

Durch die vorliegende Erfindung wird durch Herstellen einer erfindungsgemäßen Abkantung der Stacheldrähte eine vielfältige Befüllung des Geschirrkorbes mit verschiedenen Geschirrstücken ermöglicht und außerdem durch einen Abstand von der Basismatte eines Geschirrkorbes vermieden, dass am Geschirrstück undefinierte Anlagestellen entstehen, wodurch die Spülleistung und Trocknung verbessert wird.By the present invention, by producing a barbed wire according to the invention a diverse filling of the dish rack with different pieces of crockery allows and also avoided by a distance from the base mat of a crockery basket that create undefined contact points on the piece of crockery, whereby the rinsing and drying is improved.

Während bei vergleichbaren Geschirrspülmaschinen in Stachelreihen, die für Teller ausgelegt sind, nur flache Gegenstände positioniert werden, können Gläser und Tassen aufgrund des ungünstigen Anlagewinkels nicht optimal positioniert werden. Mit der Erfindung ist es möglich, in Stachelreihen für Teller und Schälchen auch zylindrische Geschirrstücke in für das Spülergebnis und die Trocknung idealen Situation anzuordnen.While only flat objects are positioned on comparable dishwashers in rows of spikes that are designed for plates, glasses and cups can not be optimally positioned due to the unfavorable angle of contact. With the invention, it is possible to arrange in cylindrical rows of dishes for plates and bowl and cylindrical dishes in ideal for the dishwashing result and drying situation.

Sonstige Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen wiedergegeben.Other developments of the invention are given in the dependent claims.

Die Erfindung und ihre Weiterbildungen sowie deren weitere Vorteile werden nachfolgend anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert.The invention and its developments and further advantages thereof are explained in more detail below with reference to drawings.

Es zeigen schematisch:

Figur 1
einen Schnitt durch einen Geschirrkorb, und
Figur 2
einen Schnitt durch zwei parallel verlaufende Stachelreihen.
They show schematically:
FIG. 1
a section through a crockery basket, and
FIG. 2
a section through two parallel rows of spikes.

Figur 1 ist ein schematisch dargestellter Schnitt durch einen erfindungsgemäß konstruierten Geschirrkorb 1. Der Geschirrkorb 1 besteht aus einer Basismatte 2, welche den Boden des Gitterkorbes 1 bildet. Der Boden ist von Seitenteilen 3.1, 3.2 und 3.3 umrahmt. Ein viertes Seitenteil ist nicht dargestellt. Die Seitenteile 3.1, 3.2 und 3.3 bestehen ebenso wie die Basismatte 2 des Bodens aus kreuzweise miteinander verbundenen Drähten. Diese Drähte bewirken eine geringe Abschirmung der zu reinigenden Geschirrstücke und dadurch auch eine sehr gute Trocknung der Geschirrstücke, da sich kein Stauwasser bildet. Ein Geschirrstück 4 ist schematisch in dem Geschirrkorb 1 dargestellt. FIG. 1 is a schematically illustrated section through an inventively constructed crockery basket 1. The crockery basket 1 consists of a base mat 2, which forms the bottom of the mesh basket 1. The floor is framed by side panels 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3. A fourth side part is not shown. The side parts 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 are made as well as the base mat 2 of the floor of cross-connected wires. These wires cause little shielding of the dishes to be cleaned and thus a very good drying of the dishes, since no backwater forms. A piece of tableware 4 is shown schematically in the dish rack 1.

Die Basismatte 2 besteht aus Längsdrähten 2.1 und Querdrähten 2.2a bis 2.2d. Zur Aufnahme von Geschirrstücken 4.1 und 4.2 sind mindestens zwei Stachelreihen 5 vorgesehen, von welchen in dieser Darstellung nur eine zu sehen ist. Jede Stachelreihe 5 besteht aus einer Vielzahl von Stacheldrähten 5.1, welche an einem Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 befestigt sind. Der Stacheldraht 5.1 ist im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel schräg an dem Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 befestigt, insbesondere angeschweißt. Der Stacheldraht kann auch rechtwinkelig an dem Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 befestigt sein und im weiteren Verlauf abgewinkelt sein. Durch die Abwinkelung wird bewirkt, dass das Geschirrstück 4.1, welches im vorliegenden Fall ein Teller ist, schräg gehaltert wird, so dass sich kein Stauwasser an dem Geschirrstück 4.1 bildet und somit keine Trocknungsflecken entstehen. Vorzugsweise sind alle wesentlichen Flächen des gehaltenen Geschirrstückes 4.1 um einen Winkel von ca. 30° gegenüber der Horizontalen geneigt, so dass das Wasser gut von dem Geschirrstück 4.1 abfließen kann. Das Geschirrstück 4.1 ist zwischen zwei Stacheldrähten 5.1 einer Stachelreihe 5 gehalten. Es stützt sich dabei weiterhin auf dem Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 ab, der die Reihe der Stacheldrähte 5.1 miteinander verbindet.The base mat 2 consists of longitudinal wires 2.1 and cross wires 2.2a to 2.2d. To accommodate pieces of tableware 4.1 and 4.2 at least two rows of spikes 5 are provided, of which only one can be seen in this illustration. Each spine row 5 consists of a plurality of barbed wires 5.1, which are attached to a spine base wire 5.2. The barbed wire 5.1 is obliquely attached to the spine base wire 5.2 in the present embodiment, in particular welded. The barbed wire can also be attached at right angles to the barbed base wire 5.2 and be angled in the further course. The angling causes the piece of tableware 4.1, which in the present case is a plate, to be held obliquely, so that no back-up water forms on the piece of tableware 4.1 and thus no drying spots are produced. Preferably, all essential surfaces of the held piece of tableware 4.1 are inclined at an angle of about 30 ° relative to the horizontal, so that the water can drain well from the piece of tableware 4.1. The piece of tableware 4.1 is held between two barbed wires 5.1 of a row of spikes 5. It continues to rely on the barbed base wire 5.2 connecting the row of barbed wires 5.1.

Der Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 ist an einem Ende gekantet. Die Enden sind ihrerseits an dem Boden über Lagerelemente 6.1 und 6.2 drehbar gelagert. Das Lagerelement 6.2 ist als Festlager und das Lagerelement 6.1 ist als Loslager ausgebildet.The spine base wire 5.2 is canted at one end. The ends are in turn rotatably mounted on the floor via bearing elements 6.1 and 6.2. The bearing element 6.2 is a fixed bearing and the bearing element 6.1 is designed as a floating bearing.

Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel endet der Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 an seinem linken Endstück 5.2a geradlinig. Das Endstück 5.2a ist in dem Loslager 6.1 drehbar und längs beweglich gelagert. Hierdurch sind Fertigungstoleranzen der einzelnen Teile des Geschirrkorbes 1 ausgleichbar. Das Lagerelement 6.1 besteht aus einer dreifachen Kantung des Querdrahtes 2.2a der Basismatte 2, welcher hierdurch eine Öse erzeugt, in die das Endstück 5.2a gesteckt ist. Das Endstück 5.2a ist in der Öse drehbar gelagert.In the present embodiment, the spiked base wire 5.2 ends straight at its left end piece 5.2a. The end piece 5.2a is rotatably mounted in the floating bearing 6.1 and longitudinally movable. As a result, manufacturing tolerances of the individual parts of the dish rack 1 can be compensated. The bearing element 6.1 consists of a triple edging of the transverse wire 2.2a of the base mat 2, which thereby produces an eyelet into which the end piece 5.2a is inserted. The end piece 5.2a is rotatably mounted in the eyelet.

Am anderen Ende des Stachelbasisdrahtes 5.2 befindet sich bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel eine Einfachkantung. Der Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 vor dem Endstück 5.2b bildet eine Drehachse für die Stachelreihe 5. Es ist in einem Festlager 6.2 drehbar angeordnet und positioniert dadurch die Stachelreihe 5 in Längsrichtung. Das Lagerelement 6.2 ist mit dem Boden, hier mit dem Querdraht 2.2d der Basismatte 2, verbunden, insbesondere eingeklippst. Durch diese Bauweise mit einem Loslager 6.1 und einem Festlager 6.2 können Toleranzen von mehreren Millimetern ausgeglichen werden, welche für die Funktion der Stachelreihe 5 nicht wesentlich sind, die Fertigung des Geschirrkorbes 1 und der Stachelreihe 5 allerdings wesentlich vereinfacht und kostengünstiger durchführen lässt.At the other end of the spiked base wire 5.2 is in the present embodiment, a single bend. The spiked base wire 5.2 in front of the end piece 5.2b forms an axis of rotation for the spiked row 5. It is rotatably arranged in a fixed bearing 6.2 and thereby positions the spiked row 5 in the longitudinal direction. The bearing element 6.2 is connected to the ground, here with the transverse wire 2.2d of the base mat 2, in particular clipped. By this design with a floating bearing 6.1 and a bearing 6.2 tolerances of several millimeters can be compensated, which are not essential for the function of the row of spikes 5, however, makes the manufacture of the dish rack 1 and the spiked row 5 much simpler and cheaper.

Die Kantung, welche in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel in einer Ebene rechtwinkelig zu der Ebene der Stacheldrähte 5.1 erfolgt, bewirkt, dass das Endstück 5.2b aus der Zeichenebene heraus gebogen ist. In aufgestellter Position der Stachelreihe 5 liegt das Endstück 5.2e auf einer Auflage des Lagerelementes 6.2 auf und bildet einen Anschlag 7. Die Stachelreihe 5 kann nur soweit aufgestellt werden, wie es der Anschlag 7 und das Endstück 5.2b zulassen. Ein Klappen der Stachelreihe 5 ist nur in einer Richtung möglich wenn das Endstück 5.2b sich von dem Anschlag 7 an dem Lagerelement 6.2 weg bewegt. Damit ist gewährleistet, dass ein zu weites Aufklappen der Stachelreihe 5 vermieden wird.The edging, which in this embodiment in a plane perpendicular to the level of the barbed wires 5.1 is effected causes the end piece 5.2b is bent out of the plane of the drawing. In the erected position of the row of spikes 5, the end piece 5.2e rests on a support of the bearing element 6.2 and forms a stop 7. The spiked row 5 can only be set up as far as the stop 7 and the end piece 5.2b allow. A flaps of the row of spikes 5 is possible only in one direction when the end piece 5.2b moves away from the stop 7 on the bearing element 6.2. This ensures that too wide unfolding of the row of barbs 5 is avoided.

Das Endstück 5.2b ist in der Position, in der es an dem Anschlag 7 anliegt, mittels einer Raste 8 gesichert. Nur durch eine bewusste Kraftaufbringung überwindet das Endstück 5.2b diese Raste 8 und erlaubt das Klappen der Stachelreihe 5.The end piece 5.2 b is secured in the position in which it bears against the stop 7 by means of a catch 8. Only by a deliberate application of force over the end piece 5.2b this catch 8 and allows the folding of the row of spines. 5

Der Stacheldraht 5.1 weist eine Dreifachkantung 5.3 auf. Hierdurch wird ein Absatz erzeugt, welcher als Auflager für Geschirrstücke 4.2 dienen kann, welche nicht zwischen den oben beschriebenen vier Stacheldrähten 5.1 aufgenommen werden können, welche also nicht so dünn wie beispielsweise Teller sind. Die Dreifachkantung 5.3 ist so jedem Stacheldraht 5.1 angeordnet, dass sie in einem Abstand A von dem Boden bzw. der Basismatte 2 verläuft. Insbesondere durch den Abstand A zu dem Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 wird bewirkt, dass Geschirrstücke 4.2, welche zur Aufnahme in der Stachelreihe 5 vorgesehen sind, keinen Kontakt mit der Basismatte 2 bzw. dem Boden erhalten und auch nicht durch die Basismatte 2 bzw. den Boden hindurchragen. Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, dass zum Beispiel Sprüharme, welche sich unterhalb der Basismatte 2 bewegen, nicht in Kontakt mit dem Geschirrstück 4.2 geraten und damit zu einer Beschädigung des Geschirrstückes 4.2 führen könnten. Außerdem wird durch die Verwendung zweier parallel angeordneter Stachelreihen 5 eine stabile Aufnahme des Geschirrstückes 4.2 bewirkt, wie in den folgenden Figuren noch näher ausgeführt werden wird.The barbed wire 5.1 has a triple edge 5.3. As a result, a paragraph is generated, which can serve as a support for tableware 4.2, which can not be included between the four barbed wires described above 5.1, which are therefore not as thin as, for example, plates. The triple edge 5.3 is arranged so each barbed wire 5.1 that it extends at a distance A from the bottom or the base mat 2. In particular, by the distance A to the spine base wire 5.2 is caused that pieces of tableware 4.2, which are intended to be included in the spiked row 5, get in contact with the base mat 2 and the floor and also do not protrude through the base mat 2 and the ground. This ensures that, for example, spray arms that move below the base mat 2, do not get in contact with the piece of tableware 4.2 and thus could lead to damage of the piece of tableware 4.2. In addition, a stable reception of the piece of tableware 4.2 is effected by the use of two parallel rows of spikes 5, as will be explained in more detail in the following figures.

Das Geschirrstück 4.2, hier ein Trinkglas, liegt mit seinem Rand auf zwei Dreifachkantungen 5.3 auf. Die Reinigung des Glases kann von unten durch einen nicht dargestellten Sprüharm erfolgen. Es stützt sich auf der parallel verlaufenden Stachelreihe 5 ab und liegt dadurch schräg in dem Geschirrkorb 1. Idealerweise sind ebene Flächen, wie zum Beispiel der Boden des Geschirrstückes 4.2 in einem Winkel zur Horizontalen geneigt. Vorzugsweise ist der Winkel für die vorgesehenen Geschirrstücke mindestens 20°, idealerweise etwa 30°. Der Abstand A und ein weiterer Abstand B der Abkantung von den Spitzen der zugeordneten Stacheldrähte 5.1 der benachbarten zweiten Stachelreihe 5 sind derart aufeinander abgestimmt, dass zur Aufnahme vorgesehene Gläser nicht durch den Boden des Geschirrkorbes 1 ragen oder die Drähte 2.1 und 2.2 der Basismatte berühren.The tableware 4.2, here a drinking glass, lies with its edge on two triple edged 5.3. The cleaning of the glass can be done from below by a spray arm, not shown. It rests on the parallel spiked row 5 and thereby lies obliquely in the dish rack 1. Ideally, flat surfaces, such as the bottom of the piece of tableware 4.2 are inclined at an angle to the horizontal. Preferably, the angle is for the intended pieces of crockery at least 20 °, ideally about 30 °. The distance A and a further distance B of the bend from the tips of the associated barbed wires 5.1 of the adjacent second row of barbs 5 are matched to one another such that glasses provided for receiving do not protrude through the bottom of the dish rack 1 or touch the wires 2.1 and 2.2 of the base mat.

In Figur 2 ist dementsprechend eine Ansicht quer zur Darstellung der Figur 1 in einem Ausschnitt dargestellt. Es ist dabei das runde Geschirrstück 4.1, hier ein Teller, und ein im Wesentlichen zylindrisches Geschirrstück 4.2, hier ein Trinkglas, gezeigt. Das Geschirrstück 4.2 stützt sich an den Stacheldrähten 5.1 der beiden Stachelreihen 5 ab. Der Glasrand befindet sich dabei an der Dreifachkantung 5.3 und der Zylindermantel an der gegenüberliegenden Stachelreihe 5 an zwei weiteren Stacheldrähten 5.1. Die Dreifachkantung 5.3 befindet sich im Abstand A von dem Stachelbasisdraht 5.2, um zu vermeiden, dass das Geschirrstück 4 in Kontakt mit dem Querdraht 2.2d gerät. Der Abstand kann je nach Ausführung und Anordnung der Stachelreihe 5 in Bezug auf die Querdrähte 2.2a bis 2.2d bzw. den Längsdrähten 2.1 als Abstand zwischen dem Verbindungsdraht 5.3 und dem Längsdraht 2.1 oder als Abstand zwischen dem Verbindungsdraht 5.3 und dem Querdraht 2.2a bis 2.2d bestimmt sein. Vorteilhaft ist in jedem Fall, dass kein Kontakt zwischen dem vorgesehenen Geschirrstück 4.2 und einem der Längsdrähte und Querdrähte 2.1, 2.2 erfolgt.In FIG. 2 is accordingly a view across the representation of FIG. 1 shown in a section. It is the round piece of tableware 4.1, here a plate, and a substantially cylindrical piece of tableware 4.2, here a drinking glass, shown. The piece of tableware 4.2 is supported on the barbed wires 5.1 of the two rows of spikes 5. The glass rim is located at the triple edging 5.3 and the cylinder jacket at the opposite spike row 5 at two other barbed wires 5.1. The triple edge 5.3 is located at a distance A from the spine base wire 5.2 to prevent the piece of tableware 4 from coming into contact with the cross wire 2.2d. The distance may, depending on the design and arrangement of the row of spikes 5 with respect to the transverse wires 2.2a to 2.2d or the longitudinal wires 2.1 as a distance between the connecting wire 5.3 and the longitudinal wire 2.1 or as a distance between the connecting wire 5.3 and the transverse wire 2.2a to 2.2 d be determined. It is advantageous in any case that no contact between the intended piece of tableware 4.2 and one of the longitudinal wires and transverse wires 2.1, 2.2 takes place.

Der Stachelbasisdraht 5.2 ist an seinem Ende abgekantet und bildet dadurch einen Lagerbolzen für das Lagerelement 6.2 und ein Endstück 5.2b für den Anschlag 7 aus. Der Anschlag 7 wirkt mit dem Endstück 5.2b in aufgeklappter Position der Stachelreihe 5 zusammen. In gestrichelter Darstellung ist die rechte Stachelreihe 5 in nicht vollständig geklappter Position dargestellt. Das Endstück 5.2b wandert dabei aus einer horizontalen in eine vertikale Position, während die Stacheldrähte 5.1 horizontal zu liegen kommen. Eine Raste 8 kann für eine feste Endstellung sowohl in aufgeklappter als auch in abgeklappter Position vorgesehen sein.The spiked base wire 5.2 is bent at its end and thereby forms a bearing pin for the bearing element 6.2 and an end piece 5.2b for the stop 7. The stopper 7 cooperates with the end piece 5.2b in the unfolded position of the row of spikes 5. In dashed line the right row of spikes 5 is shown in not fully folded position. The tail 5.2b migrates from a horizontal to a vertical position, while the barbed wires 5.1 come to lie horizontally. A catch 8 can be provided for a fixed end position both in the unfolded and in the folded-down position.

Die Enden des Stachelbasisdrahtes 5.2 sind auf einer Seite mit einer Kantung versehen und laufen auf der anderen Seite gerade aus. Hierdurch wird auf der Seite der Einfachkantung ein Anschlag in horizontaler Richtung durch das Zusammenwirken mit dem Festlager 6.2 und auf der anderen Seite mittels des geraden Endes eine längenveränderliche Befestigung durch das Loslager 6.1, welche eine Öse des Querdrahtes 2.2a ist, erzeugt. Fertigungstoleranzen werden durch diese beiden unterschiedlichen Lagerungen 6.1 und 6.2 ausgeglichen. Das Lagerelement 6.2 ist vorzugsweise im Kreuzungspunkt der Querdrähte 2.2d und der Längsdrähte 2.1 angeordnet. Hierdurch wird eine stabile Befestigung der Lagerungen in dem Geschirrkorb 1 erhalten. Die Endstücke 5.2b sind in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel beidseitig von dem Festlagerelement 6.2 geführt. Mittels der Raste 8 sind sie in ihrer Lage gehalten.The ends of the spine base wire 5.2 are edged on one side and straight on the other side. As a result, a stop in the horizontal direction by the interaction with the fixed bearing 6.2 and on the other side by means of the straight end on the side of the single edge a variable-length attachment by the floating bearing 6.1, which is an eyelet of the transverse wire 2.2a generated. Manufacturing tolerances are compensated by these two different bearings 6.1 and 6.2. The bearing element 6.2 is preferably arranged at the crossing point of the transverse wires 2.2d and the longitudinal wires 2.1. As a result, a stable attachment of the bearings in the dish rack 1 is obtained. The end pieces 5.2b are guided on both sides of the fixed bearing element 6.2 in this embodiment. By means of the catch 8 they are held in position.

Die Stachelreihe 5 wird flexibel am Boden, hier an der Basismatte 2, angeordnet. Zwischen zwei Stachelreihen 5 ist das Geschirrstück 4 durch die Stacheldrähte 5.1 gehalten. Ein Kontakt mit dem Boden des Geschirrkorbes 1 wird durch den Abstand der Dreifachkantung 5.3 vom Boden des Geschirrkorbes 1 bei Verwendung der vorgesehenen Geschirrstücke 4.2 vermieden.The spiked row 5 is flexibly arranged on the ground, here on the base mat 2. Between two rows of spikes 5, the piece of tableware 4 is held by the barbed wires 5.1. Contact with the bottom of the dish rack 1 is avoided by the distance of the triple edging 5.3 from the bottom of the dish rack 1 when using the provided pieces of tableware 4.2.

Die vorliegende Erfindung ist nicht auf die dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt. Insbesondere sind auch Doppelkantungen an den Stacheldrähten möglich. Die Befestigung an dem Stachelbasisdraht erfolgt dabei unter einem Winkel. Vorteilhaft ist insbesondere, dass kein zusätzlicher gebogener oder gekanteter Draht erforderlich ist. Hierdurch wird eine einfache Herstellung, welche voll- oder teilautomatisiert in die Stachelfertigung integriert ist, bei nur geringem Zeitaufwand zum Kanten bzw. Biegen der Drähte und damit eine deutliche Kostenersparnis im Vergleich zu bekannten Stachelreihen erreicht. Die Stachelreihen können auch anders aufgebaut sein, insbesondere können sie mit einem anderen Schwenkmechanismus ausgestattet sein oder auch fest und damit undrehbar an dem Boden des Gitterkorbes befestigt sein.The present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments. In particular, double bends on the barbed wires are possible. The attachment to the spiked base wire takes place at an angle. It is particularly advantageous that no additional bent or folded wire is required. As a result, a simple production, which is fully or partially automated integrated into the sting production, with only a small amount of time to edge or bending of the wires and thus a significant cost savings compared to known rows of spikes achieved. The rows of barbs can also be constructed differently, in particular they can be equipped with a different pivoting mechanism or fixed and thus non-rotatably attached to the bottom of the mesh basket.
