Description

A DISHWASHER COMPRISING A DRAWER
The present invention relates to a dishwasher comprising a drawer wherein items to be washed are placed.
In dishwashers, when wide and thin items such as oven trays and grills are desired to be washed, generally the distance between the racks is not sufficient for these items to be placed, and the heights of the racks are needed to be adjusted or the top rack is needed to be removed out of the dishwasher.
On the other hand, in dishwashers, drawers disposed at a position close to the ceiling are used in addition to the baskets wherein items to be washed are placed for effective utilization of the washing space. The drawers are generally suitable for placing long and thin items such as cutlery, providing the dead space inside the washing chamber to be utilized.
In order to solve this problem, in the state of the art International Patent Application No. WO2010133505, a dishwasher is described that comprises a hanger mounted to the ceiling and a drawer disposed at a position close to the ceiling so as to open/close by moving forwards/backwards on the rails mounted to this hanger..
The aim of the present invention is the realization of a dishwasher comprising a drawer that increases the loading capacity by allowing effective utilization of the interior volume.
The dishwasher of the present invention realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the attached claims comprises at least one drawer wherein the items to be washed are placed, mounted to a movement mechanism fixed to the ceiling of the body or to the side walls, so as to move forwards/backwards.
The drawer has at least one carrier that provides thin and wide items to be hung under the drawer, parallel to the ceiling. The thin and wide item is clasped to the carrier and hidden under the drawer. Thus, the interior volume of the dishwasher is provided to be effectively used.
In an embodiment of the present invention, at least one housing is disposed on the carrier. One side of the items to be washed is inserted into the housing to be clasped to the carrier.
In an embodiment of the present invention, four carriers are disposed at four corners of the drawer. Thus, the item to be washed is provided to be supported from four sides under the drawer.
In different embodiments of the present invention the opening of the housing faces downwards or forwards. In these embodiments, the item to be washed is placed to the carrier by being pushed upwards or slid backwards depending on the direction the opening of the housing faces.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the opening of the housing is wider than its interior space. Thus, the thin parts of the item to be washed that is placed into the housing, such as grill wires, easily enter the opening of the housing and squeezed in the housing. Thus, the item to be washed is provided to be kept in the carrier.
In an embodiment of the present invention, more than one housing with different dimensions is disposed on the carriers. Thus, the part of the item to be washed that is placed into the housing is placed into the housing with dimensions suitable for its dimensions.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the carrier is rail-shaped so as to enable the item to be washed to be placed under the drawer by being slid. Thus, it becomes possible to support heavy items such as trays under the drawer.
In an embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the carriers is movably connected to the drawer. Preferably, the carrier is slid in the channels located on the drawer to adjust the distance between the carriers.
By means of the present invention, thin and wide items such as tray, grill, etc. Are provided to be positioned in the dishwasher so as to be more efficiently cleaned and to occupy less space. Thus, the volume of the dishwasher is effectively used.
The model embodiments relating to the dishwasher realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention are illustrated in the attached figures, where:
Figure 1 – is the schematic view of a dishwasher.
Figure 2 – is the front partial view of the dishwasher.
Figure 3 – is the sideways view of the drawer in an embodiment of the present invention.

  1. Dishwasher
  2. Body
  3. Door
  4. Drawer
  5. Movement mechanism
  6. Carrier
  7. Housing
  8. Channel
The dishwasher (1) comprises a body (2), a door (3) providing access into the body (2), at least one drawer (4) wherein the items to be washed are placed, at least one movement mechanism (5) that provides the drawer (4) to be mounted at a position close to the ceiling (T) of the body (2) so as to move forwards/backwards (Figure 1 and Figure 2).
The drawer (4) furthermore comprises at least one carrier (6) that provides items such as grill wire, tray, etc. to be supported under the drawer (4), parallel to the ceiling (T) (Figure 1 and Figure 2). Thus, items such as grill wire, tray, etc. are provided to be washed without occupying much space in the body (2) and the interior volume of the body (2) is effectively used.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the dishwasher (1) comprises at least one housing (7) arranged on the carrier (6), providing the item to be held (Figure 3, Figure 4 and Figure 5). Thus, the item to be washed is easily placed to the carrier (6).
In an embodiment of the present invention, the dishwasher (1) comprises four carriers (6) at both sides of the drawer (4), two at the front and two at the back. Thus, the item placed to the carrier (6) is enabled to be supported in a more balanced manner.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the open end of the housing (7) faces the floor of the body (2) (Figure 6 and Figure 7). In this embodiment, when the user desires to place an item having a part in wire form, for example a grill to the carriers (6), the user brings the item under the carriers (6) and pushes it upwards and the part of the item in wire form enters into the housings (7).
In an embodiment of the present invention, the open end of the housing (7) faces the door (3) (Figure 8 and Figure 9). In this embodiment, when the user desires to place an item having a part in wire form, for example a grill to the carriers (6), the user brings the item in front of the carriers (6) and pushes it backwards and the part of the item in wire form enters into the housings (7).
In an embodiment of the present invention, the housing (7) is in a form narrowing from its open end towards its closed end so that the part of the item to be washed in wire form can be seated therein (Figure 4 and Figure 5). While the user places the item into the carrier (6), he/she inserts the side of the item into the housing (7) through the open end of the housing (7). Upon being pushed, the side of the item moves from the wide part of the housing (7) towards its narrow part and is squeezed therein and thus the item is seated into the carriers (6) and suspended under the drawer (4).
In another embodiment of the present invention, the dishwasher (1) comprises more than one housing (7) with different dimensions on each carrier (6) (Figure 6 and Figure 7). Thus, in case that the part of the item to be washed that is placed into the housing (7) is in various dimensions, the item is provided to be placed into the housing (7) with appropriate dimensions and thus, variety of items that can be supported by the carrier (6) is provided to increase.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the dishwasher (1) comprises two carriers (6) with L-shaped cross-sections, extending longitudinally from the front to the back at two sides of the floor of the drawer (4) and positioned oppositely so as to face each other. In this embodiment, the carriers (6) serve as rails wherein the item to be washed is placed by being slid.
In an embodiment of the present invention, at least one carrier (6) is movably mounted to the drawer (4) (Figure 8 and Figure 9). Thus, items to be washed with different dimensions and structures are provided to be placed to the carrier (6).
In a version of this embodiment, the dishwasher (1) comprises channels (8) arranged on the drawer (4), wherein the carriers (6) are movably inserted. Thus, the user slides the carrier (6) in the channels (8) and easily adjust the distance between the carriers (6) according to the dimensions of the item to be washed.
By means of the present invention, the inner volume of the dishwasher (1) is enabled to be effectively used during the washing of the items with different dimensions.
It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed above and a person skilled in the art can easily introduce different embodiments. These should be considered within the scope of the protection postulated by the claims of the present invention.
