Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a dishwasher rack comprising pivoting/folding supports.
- As it is known, the positioning of medium/large pots and pans in the rack of a dishwasher is difficult: the positioning of pots with the bottom facing up causes the horizontal surface to be considerably occupied thus reducing the loading capacity of the dishwasher, while the wrong positioning of pots and pans, that is with the axis perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to that of the washing jets, leads to a reduction of the washing and/or drying efficacy.
- The problem of positioning pots and pans inside a dishwasher rack has been already discussed in patent
IT1289748 - In this prior art document, the problem has been overcome by using rotatable supports, which however have some drawbacks: the supports are difficult to be accomplished when the rack is partially or totally full, making it necessary to put them in the raised position before beginning the rack loading step, thus making this step difficult for the user.
- The handling of the supports requires two movements: a first upward coupling or uncoupling movement and a second upward or downward side movement.
- In addition to that, these supports require sliding guides comprising wires that form the dishwasher rack, and that therefore are statically constrained in a predetermined position, making it impossible to re-position and/or remove them to the detriment of the loading flexibility of the dishwashing machine.
- The present invention provides to solve these and other problems by making available a dishwasher rack comprising pivoting supports, preferably for positioning pots and pans, as in the annexed claim 1.
- The idea at the base of the present invention is a pair of supports both being folding/pivoting ones, wherein the first is positioned at one side of the rack and the second at the bottom thereof, allowing one or more pots to be supported in an optimal washing/drying position in a dishwasher rack, further allowing the inner volume of the washing tank of the dishwasher to be better exploited.
- Further advantageous characteristics of the present invention are the object of the annexed claims.
- The characteristics of the invention, the effects deriving therefrom and the advantages obtained, will be more clear from the description of a preferred and non-exclusive embodiment of the invention, shown in the annexed drawings wherein:
-
fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the dishwasher rack comprising the supports for pots and pans, wherein the first support (a frame) is in the raised position; -
fig. 2 shows a perspective view of the dishwasher rack offig. 1 , wherein the first support (a frame) is in the lowered position; -
fig. 3 shows a detailed perspective view of the first support for pots and pans positioned on the bottom of the dishwasher rack; -
fig. 4 shows an horizontal view of a corrugated strip for pots and pans comprised in the first support; -
fig. 5 shows a vertical view of the component offig. 4 ; -
fig. 6 shows a perspective view of a variant of the strip offig. 4 . - With reference to
fig.1 , a dishwasher rack 1 will be now described. This rack 1 has a substantially parallelepiped shape, it is made of metal wires suitably shaped and welded together and it comprises abottom 30 from which a plurality ofwalls first support 3 for pots and pans (that for more clarity will be denoted by the term frame) and asecond support 2. - The combined action of these two supports 2,3 allows pots and pans (such as pans, frying pans, over-proof dishes, etc.) to be positioned inside a washing tub of a dishwasher (not shown in the figures) in an inclined manner.
- Both these
supports wires - The
support 2 comprises acontainer 6, preferably having a parallelepiped shape, from which a supportingelement 7 protrudes, which is preferably made of the same material as the wire forming the rack 1, and has a shape similar to an elongated omega, wherein the two ends (not shown in the figures) are contained into thecontainer 6. - This shape allows the two ends of the supporting
element 7 to act as guide elements by sliding into sliding guides (not shown in the figures) comprised in thecontainer 7. - The top of the
container 6 is closed bywalls 8, thus acting as end-of-travel element upon the deployment of the supportingelement 7 due to the interference between the two ends of theelement 7 and the inner parts ofsaid walls 8. - It is possible, for a person skilled in the art, to accomplish the connection between the
container 6 and the rack 1 by alternative means than those just described, without anyway departing from the teaching of the present patent. - As regards the operation of the
support 2,figs. 1 and2 show three supports 2 in three possible positions (from left to the right): - non-operating position, with the supporting
element 7 completely arranged into an housing seat (not shown in the figures) inside thecontainer 6 and away from the inside of the rack 1; - intermediate position, with the supporting
element 7 completely deployed from its housing seat in a vertical position; - operating position, with the supporting
element 7 completely deployed from its housing seat in a locked horizontal position, and extended to the inside of the rack 1 such to allow objects to be supported. - The locking, in this last position, is accomplished by the action of a pair of
housings 11 comprising constraint side walls 12, each of them comprising a coupling tooth 13; these teeth 13 lock the supportingelement 7 when it is in the operating position, preventing it from accidentally moving upwardly. - When the supporting
element 7 is reaching the operating position, it is elastically deformed by compression by the coupling teeth 13, then it extends, once it reaches the operating position; this elastic deformation action by compression of the supportingelement 7 is repeated during the release operation. - The release occurs by applying a force from the bottom to the top in a point of the supporting
element 7; this force has to have a modulus value sufficient for compressing and deforming the supportingelement 7 for allowing it to pass beyond the coupling teeth 13. - The procedure for deploying and folding the
support 2 occurs by moving the supportingelement 7 in the positions listed above, in the direct and opposite order described above and repeated here: non-operating position, intermediate position, operating position, or, operating position, intermediate position, non-operating position. - When a load (for example pots and pans) is put on the supporting
element 7, thesupport 7 behaves like a lever whose fulcrum is the portion of thesupport 7 positioned in thehousings 11, the first arm is the portion of thesupport 7 upon which the load can be placed, and the second arm is the portion of thesupport 7 comprised between thehousings 11 and thewalls 8. - It is clear that the force applied on the supporting
element 7 is released on the inside of thewall 8 from the bottom to the top, and due to the rigidity of thesupport 2 and the provision of the snap-on capture mechanism 14 (acting as a further fulcrum for the support 2) it is possible to note how the force is released mainly on the snap-on clips 10 and so on thelower wire 4, with horizontal direction and sense faced to the outside of the rack 1. - The
support 2 is preferably placed on therear wall 33 of the rack 1, but obviously it is possible, for the person skilled in the art, to find a place suitable for meeting the design requirements by placing thissupport 2 on one of theother walls -
Figs. 1 and2 show threesupports 2 coupled to the rack 1, but it is again possible for the person skilled in the art to select the number ofsupports 2 to be included in said rack 1 such to better meet the loading flexibility requirements, necessary for achieving the design objects. - Now the frame 3 (or first support) will be described with reference to
figs. 1-2 and4-6 .Figures 1 and2 show twoframes 3, eachframe 3 comprises the following parts: - a
base wire 16 comprisingbent ends 17; -
wire segments 18 arranged parallel to each other and welded to the base wire preferably uniformly spaced and with a predetermined angle with respect to thebase wire 16; - a
corrugated strip 19. - The
frame 3 pivots between a raised position, wherein thesegments 18 are faced to the inside of the rack 1 while thecorrugated strip 19 is substantially parallel to thebottom 30, and a lowered position, wherein thesegments 18 are substantially parallel to thebottom 30 while thecorrugated strip 19 is substantially vertical. - The
corrugated strip 19 serves for advantageously preventing pots and pans from slipping by means ofloops 20 in an horizontal position, thus facilitating the proper positioning already described above; thisstrip 19 is integral with thebase wire 16, and therefore, also with segments 18 (with which it forms a right angle) by fastening means that comprise snap-onhooks base wire 16 and thesegments 18 respectively. -
Figure 6 shows a corrugated strip 19' similar to thecorrugated strip 19 just described; this strip 19' is different than the previous one for the used fastening means. Instead ofhooks frame 3. - Snap-on seats 21' match with the
base wire 16, while the slots 22' match with thesegments 18 of theframe 3. Sliding thesegments 18 inside said slots 22', until snap-on seats 21' are coupled with thebase wire 16, makes possible to accomplish a firm coupling between the strip 19' and theframe 3. - It is possible, for a person skilled in the art, to accomplish the coupling between the
corrugated strip 19,19', thebase wire 16, and therefore also thesegments 18 by alternative means than those just described, without departing anyway from the teaching of the present patent. - The
bottom 30 of the rack 1 comprises a plurality of constraints suitable for eliminating all the degrees of freedom of theframe 3 except for the rotation about the axis of thebase wire 16. Particularly thebottom 30 comprises to this end a plurality ofsemi-circular seats 24, formed by wire portions and arranged along the extension of thebase wire 16 with such a shape to stably house thebase wire 16, only allowing it to rotate about its own axis. The free rotation of thebase wire 16 is limited by the provision of thebent ends 17, which are shaped so as to act as end-of-travel elements by interfering with awire 25, which is comprised in thebottom 30 of the rack 1, when theframe 3 is in a raised position. Eachbent end 17 comprises a groove in which thewire 25 stably is housed thus guaranteeing the interference necessary for firmly keeping theframe 3 in the raised position and for releasing on the rack 1 the weight of the dishes supported onsegments 18, without the need of tensioning thebase wire 16. - It is clear that all the parts comprised in the first support or
frame 3 are integral with each other. - In
fig.1 it is possible to see theframe 3 in the raised position, that is with thesegments 18 in a nearly vertical position, which is suitable for positioning the dishes (such as flat dishes) in a proper washing position, which is with the axis of symmetry at an angle of some degrees with respect to the horizontal, such to allow a washing liquid sprayed from a sprayer arm (not shown in the figures) to reach the inside of the cavities of the dishes, thus allowing this liquid to drain by gravity. - In this position, the
corrugated strip 19,19' is in a substantially horizontal position and parallel to thebottom 30; said strip, in addition, comprisesorifices 23 such to advantageously increase the flow of the washing fluid directly reaching the dishes arranged on theframe 3 and to facilitate the subsequent drainage in the drying step. -
Fig.2 shows twoframes 3, in the lowered position, with thecorrugated strips 19,19' in a nearly vertical position, in this position it is possible to easily position pans and pots exploiting also at least one of thesupports 2, thus increasing the washing efficiency of the dishwasher, since (as already said above) it is possible to better wash more frying pans or pots than a dishwasher equipped with a conventional rack. In each one of theframes 3, this position is made stable by thesegments 18 acting as end-of-travel elements by interfering with the wires of the rack 1 and/or by a particular shape of thebent ends 17 allowing them to act as end-of-travel elements even in the lowered position of therack 3. - In this position, the
segments 18 of the twoframes 3 are arranged on the bottom of the rack 1 at a very close distance one another, such to form an almost supporting surface upon which it is possible to put not only pots and pans but also objects having a certain length (e.g. knives, ladles, etc.). - Therefore, it is clear, for the person skilled in the art, how the combined action of these two supports 2 and 3 of the movable type, allows pots and pans to be properly positioned, that is having the axis of symmetry of said pots and pans with an angle of some tens of degrees with respect to the horizontal. By using such advantageous positioning, it is possible, for the dishwasher to perform a more efficient washing cycle and at the same time to increase the loading flexibility thereof.
- Moreover, it has to be pointed out the possibility of using two or
more supports 2 in the operating position for supporting objects having a certain length (e.g. knives, ladles, etc.) by using the supportingelements 7 as stands. - Finally, it has to be pointed out how in the example shown in
figs. 1 and2 , theframes 3 extend for all the width of the rack 1, but as an alternative these frames can occupy only a portion of the rack width.
