Description

Spülgutaufnahme for a flat dishes in a dishwasher

The present invention relates to a Spülgutaufnahme for a flat ware in a dishwasher, in particular household dishwasher.

It is known to provide in a dishwasher a Spülgutaufnahme for flat ware, which a variety of vertical, rigid from the bottom of the

Spülgutaufnahme projecting support elements for the flat ware comprises. Further Spülgutaufnahmen for flat items to be washed in a dishwasher are known, the vertical, protruding from the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme support elements can be transferred manually into the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme. For reasons of user friendliness, in each case a large number of support elements is combined to form a comb-shaped unit, which can only be folded down as a whole.

Examples of this can be found in the document US Pat. No. 5,601,195 and the document WO 00/49935 A1. Before feeding flat ware a folded kammformige unit is therefore erect manually from the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme in a vertical support position. In the vertical support position, therefore, all the support units of a Spülgutaufnahme or a comb-shaped unit protrude into the space above the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme, even with only partial loading with flat ware. As a result, the loading of the Spülgutaufnahme is hindered with dishes of another format. Against this background, an object of the present invention is to provide an improved Spülgutaufnahme for flat ware in a dishwasher.

Accordingly, a Spülgutaufnahme for a flat ware in a dishwasher, in particular household dishwasher, proposed with a bottom and at least one support element for supporting the flat ware. The at least one support element is arranged between one in a plane of the Bodens arranged rest position and a towering from the level of the ground supporting position to be pivoted. In this case, this is at least one support element by a weight of the flat ware from the rest position to the support position

pivotable. In contrast to conventional Spülgutaufnahmen with rigid or comb-shaped combined support elements that is directed at least one support element of the proposed Spülgutaufnahme when needed, that is, when loaded with a flat ware, individually and automatically. There where that at least one

Support element is required, it fulfills its support function, while it does not interfere, where it is not needed, and thus free storage space for items other formats such as cups, bowls, pots and so on.

The Spülgutaufnahme may, for example, have a plastic-coated mesh basket in which optionally also various support elements for different types of items to be washed can be provided. In particular, the Spülgutaufnahme may include a lower basket, an upper basket or a cutlery drawer.

Flat ware is ware whose dimension in a third dimension is much smaller than its dimensions in the other two dimensions.

A dishwasher may in particular be a household dishwasher.

According to one embodiment, the at least one support element is pivotably articulated in the ground. In other words, a pivot axis of the at least one support element lies in the plane of the floor.

In contrast to conventional Spülgutaufnahmen the at least one support element is preferably hinged individually pivotable in the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme.

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element is pivotably articulated in the ground by a pin-and-socket joint. The pivot axis of the support element corresponds to the axis of rotation of the pin socket joint.

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element has a recess, which for the pivotable articulation of the at least one

Supporting element can be snapped onto a cylindrical rod member of the soil.

As an alternative to a pin-and-socket joint, the joint passing through the at least one support element, for example consisting of a recess and a cylindrical rod element of the base, can be replaced by at least one

Support element also pivotable in the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme.

A cylindrical rod element may, for example, be a straight wire element in the bottom of a washware receptacle designed as a grid basket. The pivot axis of the at least one support element corresponds to the axis of rotation of the joint, that is, the rotational axis of symmetry of the recess in the at least one support element.

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element has a lever extension, which is adapted to pivot the at least one support element when the flat ware is fed by the weight thereof from the rest position into the support position.

Preferably, the lever extension is designed so that it absorbs its weight when feeding the flat ware. For example, it can move vertically downwards. In this case, it leads to the formation of a torque about the pivot axis of the at least one support element, which erects the at least one support element.

Furthermore, the lever extension with respect to the pivot axis is preferably provided on that side of the at least one support element which lies opposite the center of gravity of the at least one support element. According to a further embodiment, the Spülgutaufnahme by a

Return spring for dividing the at least one support member from the support position in the rest position upon removal of the flat ware marked.

As a result, the pivot axis of the at least one support element can be provided close to or in its center of gravity.

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element is adapted to move back on removal of the flat ware due to a dead weight of the support member from the support position to the rest position.

Preferably, the pivot axis of the at least one support element is arranged outside of its center of gravity, that is at least one support element upon removal of the flat dishes in power imbalance and strives to take the weight following his rest position.

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element has a stop which is adapted to fix the rest position of the at least one support element. Preferably, the stop is formed as a projection on the at least one support element which in the rest position on a rod element of the bottom of the

Spülgutaufnahme rests and prevents the pivoting of the at least one support member beyond its rest position addition. Alternatively, the at least one support element also come to lie itself on a rod element of the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme and thereby form a stop.

According to a further embodiment, the Spülgutaufnahme is characterized by at least one support element for supporting a bottom edge of the flat dishes. By at least one support element of the ground level edge of the flat

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element is an element of the floor.

Preferably, an already structurally provided rod element of the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme, for example, a plastic-coated wire that forms at least one support element.

According to a further embodiment, the at least one support element is a hook extension of the at least one support element which is adapted to engage in the support position the resting on the ground edge of the flat ware.

In this case, the lever extension of the at least one support element is preferred

continued in a hook-shaped manner that he on the ground or on the

Lever extension set resting edge of the flat dishes. According to a further embodiment, the flat ware is a plate.

A plate is a mostly round and flat, that is flat, dishes.

An edge of the plate can be due to its curvature in the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme vertically lower than the contact points of the plate on the floor or the

Lever extensions.

Preferably, therefore, the lever extension of the at least one support member is provided so that it is actuated upon supply of the plate due to this positional difference. For example, the lever extension of the at least one support element can thereby be pivoted into or below the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme. Furthermore, this can be the at least one support element, if it is an element of the

Floor is, preferably as a straight, be formed with the bottom of the Spülgutaufnahme flush bar member.

According to a further embodiment, the Spülgutaufnahme comprises at least one additional support element, wherein the at least two support elements are adapted to receive its recess between lying or lying on supply of the plate.

The support member and the immediately adjacent and additional support member may be interconnected by means of their respective lever extension in forming a connecting web. The connecting web can, if the support element and the immediately adjacent and additional support element are retired, so are folded down about its pivot axis, at least on the upper side with a contoured

Surface, which may be variable in shape and / or size, be provided. For example, the contoured surface may be formed by teeth, wherein the shape of the teeth may in turn be wavy, triangular or semicircular. The teeth may have a respective height of 0.5 to 2 mm, preferably of 0.8 to 1, 5 mm, in particular of 1 mm, and a respective distance of 1 to 3 mm,
