Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flexible support accessory which can be coupled to at least one rigid support comprised in a dishwasher rack.
  • a dishwasher rack (not shown in the drawings) comprises at least one rigid support (such as a rake) and at least one flexible support accessory 2,3,4 according to the invention, the latter being coupled to at least one of said rigid supports, i.e. being in an operating condition.
  • the rigid support comprises a rake 1, at least made up of segments 11 and a crosspiece 12, which are made integral with each other, preferably by electric welding.
  • the segment 11 comprises a base end 11a and a head 11b.
  • the base ends 11a are constrained to the crosspiece 12, so that the rotation of the crosspiece 12 about its own axis moves the heads 11b of the segments 11 along a circular trajectory.
  • the support accessories 2,3,4 according to the invention may have different lengths, so as to better meet the users' needs and to increase the dishwasher's loading flexibility; in the idle condition, these support accessories 2,3,4 will preferably have a cylindrical shape. Objects to be washed having different dimensions can be laid against the support accessories 2,3,4 without risking that said objects might get scratched or be subject to any kind of shock, in that the supports 2,3,4 can keep them at a distance from the segments 11, which are made of a rigid material and may therefore cause damage in the event that an object to be washed strikes or slides against them.
  • the support accessories 2,3,4 may also act as load holder belts by securing the objects to the rack.
  • the material of the support accessories 2,3,4 is flexible, such as rubber or the like (e.g. suitably charged TPE).
  • a support 3 comprises two coupling ends 31 and a flexible central part 32.
  • the internal portion of the end 31 comprises an outward-facing cavity 33 having a substantially cylindrical shape compatible with the head 11b of the segment 11, whereas the external portion of the end 31 comprises elastic ribs 34 that are necessary to keep it coupled to the head 11b when the support accessory 3 is in the operating condition.
  • the apertures of the cavity 33 are located at the outer ends of the support accessory 3, so that, in the operating condition, the axis of the end 31 of the support accessory 3 coincides with that of the segment 11.
  • central part 32 there may be a central channel, so that it can be more easily flexed.
  • the support 3 may have a solid central part, so that it can be more easily molded.
  • the end portion 31 facing the central part 32 comprises a membrane 36 that prevents a washing liquid from getting into the central part 32 and allows to create a suction cup effect between the end 31 and the head 11b of the segment 11. This advantageously prevents the wash liquid from stagnating inside the central channel 35 and ensures a correct coupling between the two components.
  • the support 3 according to the present invention although it has been conceived mainly for use in association with one or more rakes, is well suited to any application on a dishwasher rack for the purpose of increasing its loading capacity and flexibility.
  • the rigid support i.e. the lower part, is secured by interference with a pair of parallel wires of the rack bottom.
  • FIG. 3 A further application is shown in Fig. 3 , wherein the rigid support consists of a removable base 5 that comprises a pair of segments 51 consisting of angle-bent wires, fitted with ends 51a for coupling them to the rack wires.
  • the segments 51 support a fork 52 with vertically-oriented prongs 52a: the flexible accessory 3 according to the invention is applied to the free ends of the latter.
  • the base 5 of this variant of the support according to the invention can be applied to a dishwasher rack, as shown in Fig. 4 : it can therefore be easily understood that this variant can be used as an alternative to rakes for applying the support accessory 3.
  • the removable rigid support 5 and in particular the coupling ends 51a are so shaped as to also engage with the crosspieces 13 of two rakes 1, so that, when the rakes are lowered, it is possible to use some base wires of the rakes in order to secure the rigid support 5.
  • the material of the removable rigid support 5 is preferably a metallic one, coated with a layer of insulating material, such as Rilsan, which prevents any contact between the metal and the washing liquid, thus avoiding the onset of any corrosion phenomena.
  • the fork 52 may however consist of a pair of vertically-oriented parallel pegs, positioned on a frame comprising one or more horizontally-oriented small bars, preferably two, to which the pegs and both beams are coupled.
  • the beams are orthogonal and coplanar to the small bars; at the ends of the beams there are hooks for securing them to the rack.
  • the rigid support i.e. the base 5
  • the rigid support is secured by interference with a pair of parallel wires of the rack bottom.
