The dishwasher illustrated in the accompanying drawings comprises a customary enclosing cabinet 10 having a movable panel 1 1 in the form of a front door normally closing an access opening 12 but capable of being lowered to open position as shown in FIG. 1 about side hinges 13.
The interior of the cabinet 10 is provided with the customary spaced dish retaining racks 14 and a bottom rotatable spray arm 15 serving as a source of projected washing liquid for washing the dishes in the customary manner.
The panel 11 has a front surface 16 facing the interior 17 of the dishwasher tub 18 in which the racks l4 and spray arm 15 are located. The front surface 16 of the panel 11 is recessed as illustrated by the recess 19 in FIG. 4 and this recess contains a dishwasher basket 20 releasably mounted therein.
The basket 20 is provided with side or end walls 21, a water pervious front wall 22, a water pervious bottom wall 23 and a water pervious back wall 24. The back wall 24 is provided with a plurality of raised spacer means here embodied in spaced vertical ribs 25 of which six are used in this embodiment for holding the back of the basket away from the front surface 16 of the panel to facilitate drainage of washing liquid at the back of the basket. The openwork front, bottom and back also aids rapid and complete drying of the contained silverware.
In the illustrated embodiment the side walls 21, bottom wall 23, back wall 24 and spaced ribs 25 are all integral and made from a molded rigid but flexible plastic. These walls each comprise a lattice of integral crossed sets of spaced strips, some of which are arranged generally horizontally. Thus in the bottom wall the horizontal strips 26 cross at right angles to the other set of strips 27. In this embodiment the set of cross strips 27 are inclined forwardly and downwardly as illustrated most clearly in FIGS. 4 and 5. The horizontal strips 26 have tapered sharp lower edges 28 facing the source of projected washing liquid or rotatable spray arm 15 to facilitate entry of this liquid through the openings between the crossed strips.
The back wall 24 of the basket is provided with a plurality, here shown as three, of horizontally aligned vertically extending keyhole type openings 29 that are narrower at the top 30. These openings are designed to receive plastic flanged buttons 31 that are mounted on the front surface recess 19 so as to releasably retain the basket within the recess during the dishwashing operation. The locating of the basket in a recess 19 provides more space in the racks 14.
The front wall 22 is hingedly attached at its lower edge 32 to the forward edge 33 of the bottom wall 23 so that the front wall may be opened forwardly and downwardly from the position shown in FIG. 2 to the position shown in FIG. 3 to facilitate loading the basket with silverware before mounting it in the panel 1 l in the manner just described. In a similar manner, the basket may be loaded with the front wall 22 in an opened position with the basket mounted on panel 11. The hinge structure comprises a plurality of pins 34 that are spaced from each other and that are aligned generally parallel to the bottom wall forward edge 33 as shown most clearly in FIG. 7. At the intersection of pins 34 and edge 33 fillets as at 65 may be provided to strengthen the hinge structure. The hinge structure also comprises loop portions 35 on the lower edge 32 of the front wall 22 each of which receives a hinge portion of a pin 34 so as to provide the hinging action. One of the end loop portions 35 is engaged by a horizontal pin 36 that extends toward the other pins 34 to complete the hinge structure. This pin 36 has a supplemental pin 37 adjacent to it and extending toward it but spaced to provide a gap as shown in FIG. 7 so that this end loop portion 35 may be snapped between the pins 36 and 37 in attaching or removing the front wall 22.
The hinged front wall 22 like the other walls comprises a flexible plastic member having a top edge 38 that is opposite the hinge structure. This top edge being normally flexible is provided with an enclosing reinforcing strip 39 which may be of thin sheet metal. The reinforcing strip 39 serves two purposes in that it reinforces the flexible top edge from end-toend so that the weight of the contained silverware cannot distort the front wall enough to permit escape of pieces of silverware and also provides a decorative appearance to the basket.
The front wall 22 is provided with raised side ribs 40 and 60 and a bottom rib 41 that extend toward the back wall 24 when the front wall is in closed position as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4-6. As shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 9, ribs 40 and 41 are located adjacent and inwardly of the side walls 21 and the bottom wall 23 and are used not only to reinforce the basket at the areas of the walls but also to inhibit thin bladed knives and the like extending from the basket in the space between the front wall 22 and the side walls 21 and bottom wall 23. Rib 60 is located adjacent and outwardly of the side walls 21 to give additional dimensional stability between the front wall 22 and the side walls 21.
The bottom wall 23 slopes forwardly and downwardly toward the tub interior when the door 11 is closed as illustrated most clearly in FIGS. 4 and 5. The bottom wall is provided with spaced ribs 42 each having a flat generally horizontal upper surface 43 with these surfaces being substantially coplanar. The ribs 42 are primarily used to keep the silverware in the basket separated from each other for more efficient washing. Each rib 42 has a notched stepped forward end 44 (FIG. 5) to provide room for the bottom rib 41 when the front wall 22 is in closed position.
The back wall 24 of the basket extends above the front wall 22 when this front wall is closed and is provided with a plurality of vertical partitions 45 and 46 that extend from the closed front wall 22 to the rear wall 24 to divide the basket into sideby-side separated compartments. The partition 46 is located centrally of the basket and is provided adjacent its upper end with a large opening 47 so that it also serves as a handle for transporting the basket and its contents. The vertical partitions 45 and 46 are provided with rear edge openings 48 and 49 so as to permit liquid to pass from one compartment to another through the partitions. As can be seen in FIGS. 4 and 5 these openings 48 and 49 are elongated in a generally horizontal direction so as to facilitate the passage of this liquid.
The front wall 22 is provided with the above-described lattice of integral plastic strips some of which 50 are arranged horizontally and some of which 61 are arranged vertically. These strips 50 are also provided with sharp forward edges 51 that are also facing the source 15 of projected liquid to facilitate entry of this liquid through the front wall 22 and onto the contained silverware.
In order to retain the front wall 22 in closed position there is provided a spring catch 52. As disclosed most clearly in FIGS. 4, 5 and 8, this spring catch comprises a wire 53 having ends 54 retained in bosses 55 on the rear top of the front wall 22 and a central section 56 above the metal reinforcing strip 29. The ends 54 held in the bosses 55 are on end shelves 57 that are integral with the bosses so that the wire is held against clockwise movement as viewed in FIGS. 4, 5 and 8. This serves to retain the wire in catch notches 58 in the two partitions 45 on opposite sides of and nearest to the central partition 46. This structure provides a spring catch to hold the front wall 22 closed as shown most clearly in FIGS. 4 and 5, yet permits releasing the catch by distorting the spring 52 upwardly from its position in FIGS. 4 and 5. This can easily be done by grasping the central handle portion 59 of the spring catch.
Thus the invention is discussed above comprehends an improved silverware basket structure for use in a dishwasher having a washing space provided with a forwardly opening access opening 12 and a door 11 removably closing the access opening. The silverware basket 20 is arranged to be carried on the door to be exposed to the washing space when the door is in the closed position across the access opening. The invention comprehends providing such a basket having a water-pervious wall means including a back wall 24 and peripheral walls 21 and 23 projecting from the back wall and defining therewith a three-sided receptacle as shown in FIG. 3 having a front opening which opens laterally toward the upper end of the receptacle as shown in FIG. 3. Thus, in the arrangement of FIG. 3 the basket is arranged to receive silverware brought flatwise downwardly through the front opening with the basket turned with the back 24 lowermost and thus with the front opening uppermost. The water-pervious front wall 22 is selectively disposable across the front opening as shown in FIG. 2 subsequent to the reception of the silverware in the receptacle. Thus, when the door 11 is swung upwardly to the closed position across the access opening, the basket defines an upwardly opening receptacle with the previously designated side opening now uppermost to define the four-sided upwardly opening receptacle arrangement shown in FIG. 2 which is then exposed to the washing space for washing the silverware in the basket. In this arrangement the peripheral wall 23 defines the bottom of the upwardly opening receptacle.
