In addition, the rear end of the door is hinged to the upper surface of the main body to rotate and open and close the upper opening, the nozzle bracket is installed on the lower surface of the upper door is characterized in that it rotates with the upper door.

In addition, the nozzle bracket is characterized in that the circulation hose for circulating the water to be sprayed through the upper injection nozzle is disposed.

In addition, the nozzle bracket includes a fixing portion fixed to the rear of the washing tank, and a protrusion protruding forward from the fixing portion to install the upper injection nozzle in the front end, the nozzle bracket is the fixing portion and the protrusion It is characterized in that the connection portion is formed of an elastically deformable material to be bent.

In addition, the dishwasher according to the present invention is provided with a washing tank for storing the dishes therein, the upper surface of the main body is provided with an upper surface, the upper door for opening and closing the upper opening, and the lower surface of the upper door is installed in the washing tank It characterized in that it comprises a jet nozzle for spraying water to the tableware.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 and 2, the dishwasher according to the present invention includes a main body 10 provided with a washing tank 11, which is configured to wash the dishes therein, and has a washing tank on the front surface of the main body 10, as shown in FIGS. A front opening 10a is provided to store the dishes in the 11 or to pull out the dishes from the washing tank 11, and a lower end of the main body 10 is hinged to open and close the front opening 10a. The front door 12F is coupled to rotate and open and close the front opening 10a.

In the washing tank 11, a pair of dish baskets 13 for storing dishes are installed on the upper and lower portions of the washing tank 11 so as to move forward and backward, and are rotatable in the upper, lower and middle portions of the two baskets 13. The spray nozzles 14U, 14L, and 14M are installed to rotate, rotate, and spray water to wash the dishes contained in the dish basket 13, respectively. At this time, the injection nozzles 14U, 14L, 14M are an upper injection nozzle 14U disposed above the washing tank 11, a lower injection nozzle 14L disposed below the washing tank 11, and two dish baskets ( 13) an intermediate injection nozzle 14M disposed in the space therebetween.

In the upper part of the washing tank 11, a water supply pipe 15 having a water supply valve 16 is disposed in the middle to supply water into the washing tank 11, and the water in the washing tank 11 is disposed below the washing tank 11. A water collecting portion 11a is formed to be concave downward so as to be collected. The collecting part 11a is provided with a filter 17 to filter the dirt washed from the dishes, and is connected to the spray nozzles 14U, 14L and 14M to spray the water collected in the collecting part 11a with the spray nozzles 14U and 14L. , 14M) is connected to a sewer such as a circulation pipe 18 and a sink (not shown) for circulating the water collected in the water collecting unit 11a to the washing tank 11 to collect the water collected in the water collecting unit 11a. The drain pipes 20 for guiding to be discharged to the outside through each are connected. In addition, a washing pump 19 and a drain pump 21 are installed to allow water to flow along the circulation pipe 18 and the drain pipe 20. Therefore, the water supplied through the water supply pipe 15 and the water supply valve 16 is sprayed into the injection nozzles 14U, 14L, 14M by the circulation pipe 18 and the washing pump 19 to wash the dirt on the dishes. After the washing is completed, the drain pump 21 and the drain pipe 20 are discharged to the sewer.

In addition, the dishwasher according to the present invention, even if the main body 10 is installed in a narrow space can not fully open the front door 12F, the main body so that the dish can be stored and withdrawn through the upper surface of the main body 10 The upper surface of 10 is opened, and the upper surface opening 10b is provided, and the upper surface door 12U for opening and closing the upper surface opening 10b is provided. In the present embodiment, the upper door 12U is rotated by the rear end hinged to the upper rear side of the main body 10 to open and close the upper surface of the main body 10.

Therefore, even when the dishwasher is installed in a narrow space where the front door 12F cannot be fully opened and the dishes cannot be withdrawn and stored through the front opening 10a, the main body 10 is provided via the top door 12U. Opening the upper surface opening (10b) provided on the upper surface of the to be able to take out the dishes from the washing tank 11 through the upper surface opening (10b) or to accommodate the dishes in the washing tank (11).

In addition, the dishwasher according to the present invention, the rear end of the washing tank 11 is installed on the rear of the washing tank 11 so that the upper injection nozzle 14U can be installed on the upper portion of the washing tank 11 nozzle bracket ( 22 is protruded so that the upper injection nozzle 14U is provided at the front end of the nozzle bracket 22.

The nozzle bracket 22 has a circulation pipe 18 disposed therein and is formed vertically long and fixed to the rear side of the washing tank 11, and is fixed to the rear side of the washing tank 11 and from the upper end of the fixing portion 22a to the front side. It includes a protrusion 22b that protrudes and the upper injection nozzle 14U is installed.

At this time, since the upper injection nozzle 14U is provided at the center side of the upper opening 10b, the tableware is caught by the upper injection nozzle 14U and the nozzle bracket 22 when storing and withdrawing the tableware. And withdrawal is inconvenient.

Accordingly, the dishwasher according to the present invention is rotatably installed at the rear end of the washing tank 11 so that the rear end of the protrusion 22b of the nozzle bracket 22 can be easily stored and taken out through the upper opening 10b. And the upper injection nozzle 14U is moved upward and rearward to move away from the upper surface opening 10b. In this embodiment, the portion where the fixing portion 22a and the protrusion 22b are connected to each other is bent and the nozzle bracket 22 is formed of an elastically deformable material so that the protrusion 22b can rotate.

In addition, in this embodiment, the protrusion 22b of the nozzle bracket 22 is fixed to the upper door 12U so that when the upper door 12U rotates and opens the upper opening 10b, the upper door 12U It rotates with the upper injection nozzle 14U, and it is designed to move back upward. Accordingly, when the upper door 12U is rotated to store or withdraw the dishes through the upper opening 10b, the upper injection nozzle 14U moves together with the upper door 12U toward the rear upper side, and the upper opening 12b moves from the upper opening 10b. Since it is separated, the tableware can be easily stored and withdrawn through the open top opening 10b.

In the present embodiment, the upper injection nozzle 14U is configured such that the upper injection nozzle 14U is installed through the nozzle bracket 22 having the rear end of the upper injection nozzle 14U, but is not limited thereto. By allowing the upper injection nozzle 14U to be installed directly on the upper door 12U, the upper injection nozzle 14U rotates together with the upper door 12U to disengage from the upper opening 10b and the tableware through the upper opening 10b. It is also possible to facilitate the storage and withdrawal of.

As described in detail above, the dishwasher according to the present invention is provided with an upper surface opening on the upper surface of the main body, and has an upper surface door for opening and closing the upper surface opening to store and withdraw dishes through the upper side of the main body through the upper surface opening. Because of this, there is an effect that can be used to install the dishwasher in a narrow space.

In addition, the dishwasher according to the present invention is installed through the nozzle bracket that the rear end is rotatably installed on the wall surface of the washing tank can be separated from the upper opening nozzle from the upper opening, the storage and withdrawal of the dish more There is an effect that can be easily made.
