On the front surface of the main body of the dishwasher 50, there is provided a door body 51a into which tableware 59 is put in and out by opening and closing. The washing tank 52 is provided inside the dishwasher 50, and water or hot water is supplied to the washing tank 52 by a water supply valve 53. A drain hole 54 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning tank 52. The cleaning pump 55 is attached in communication with the drain hole 54 and is driven by a motor (not shown). The cleaning pump 55 sprays the cleaning water in the cleaning tank 52 from the cleaning nozzle 57 and circulates it inside the cleaning tank 52. In addition, a leftover filter 56 that collects leftovers washed away from the tableware 59 is provided in the drain hole 54.
 なお、以下、洗浄槽52内に収容された食器類59などの被洗浄物の洗浄およびすすぎステップで用いられる液体を、洗浄水と称して説明する。 In the following, the liquid used in the cleaning and rinsing steps of the objects to be cleaned such as tableware 59 accommodated in the cleaning tank 52 will be referred to as cleaning water.
 まず、洗浄槽52内に供給され、貯留された洗浄水は、残菜フィルタ56を通過して洗浄ポンプ55に吸い込まれる。吸い込まれた洗浄水は、洗浄ポンプ55により洗浄槽52内に設けられた洗浄ノズル57に圧送される。供給された洗浄水は、洗浄ノズル57から食器類59に向けて噴射される。そして、洗浄ノズル57から噴射された洗浄水は、食器類59を洗浄した後、再び排水孔54に戻るという経路で循環される。このとき、食器類59から脱落した残菜などは、洗浄水とともに残菜フィルタ56に流入する。そして、残菜フィルタ56を通過できない大きさの残菜は残菜フィルタ56に捕集される。 First, the cleaning water supplied and stored in the cleaning tank 52 passes through the leftover filter 56 and is sucked into the cleaning pump 55. The sucked cleaning water is pumped by a cleaning pump 55 to a cleaning nozzle 57 provided in the cleaning tank 52. The supplied cleaning water is sprayed from the cleaning nozzle 57 toward the tableware 59. Then, the cleaning water sprayed from the cleaning nozzle 57 is circulated through a path that returns to the drain hole 54 after cleaning the dishes 59. At this time, the leftovers dropped from the tableware 59 flow into the leftover filter 56 together with the washing water. Then, the remaining vegetables having a size that cannot pass through the leftover filter 56 are collected by the leftover filter 56.
 また、ヒータ58は、洗浄ノズル57と洗浄槽52の底部との間に配設され、洗浄水を加熱する。具体的には、ヒータ58は、洗浄時において、洗浄水が洗浄槽52に所定の水位まで給水されると、洗浄ポンプ55の起動とほぼ同時に通電される。そして、洗浄水は洗浄槽52内を循環しながら約60℃まで加熱される。また、食器かご60は、食器類59が整然と配置されるように構成され、洗浄ノズル57の上方に配設されている。これにより、食器洗い機50において、食器かご60に配置された食器類59に対して、洗浄水が効果的に食器類59に噴射されて洗浄が行われる。また、排水ポンプ61は、排水ホース62を通して洗浄水を機外に排出する。さらに、食器洗い機50の本体の底部に、外気を洗浄槽52に取り入れる送風ファン63と、一連の洗浄運転を制御して実行する制御装置65とが設けられている。また、洗浄水の温度を検知するサーミスタ64が排水孔54の外側に配設されている。 The heater 58 is disposed between the cleaning nozzle 57 and the bottom of the cleaning tank 52 and heats the cleaning water. Specifically, the heater 58 is energized almost simultaneously with the activation of the cleaning pump 55 when cleaning water is supplied to the cleaning tank 52 to a predetermined water level during cleaning. The cleaning water is heated to about 60 ° C. while circulating in the cleaning tank 52. The tableware basket 60 is configured such that the tableware 59 is arranged in an orderly manner, and is disposed above the cleaning nozzle 57. Thereby, in the dishwasher 50, with respect to the tableware 59 arrange | positioned at the tableware basket 60, a wash water is sprayed on the tableware 59 effectively, and washing is performed. Further, the drain pump 61 discharges the washing water through the drain hose 62 to the outside of the machine. Furthermore, a blower fan 63 for taking outside air into the washing tank 52 and a control device 65 for controlling and executing a series of washing operations are provided at the bottom of the main body of the dishwasher 50. A thermistor 64 that detects the temperature of the cleaning water is disposed outside the drain hole 54.
 以上のように構成された食器洗い機50の運転について、以下に簡単に説明する。 The operation of the dishwasher 50 configured as described above will be briefly described below.
 食器洗い機50の運転は、制御装置65により制御される。まず、食器類59に付着した食品の汚染物を洗い落とす洗浄ステップが行われる。洗浄ステップでは、洗浄槽52内に事前に投入された洗剤が溶かされ、洗剤を含んだ洗浄水が洗浄ノズル57から噴射され、食器類59に付着した汚染物が洗い落される。その後、洗浄槽52内の洗浄水がきれいな洗浄水に入れ替えられて、食器類59に付着した洗剤などをすすぐすすぎステップが行われる。 The operation of the dishwasher 50 is controlled by the control device 65. First, a washing step for washing away food contaminants attached to the tableware 59 is performed. In the washing step, the detergent put in advance in the washing tank 52 is dissolved, washing water containing the detergent is sprayed from the washing nozzle 57, and contaminants adhering to the tableware 59 are washed away. Thereafter, the washing water in the washing tank 52 is replaced with clean washing water, and a rinsing step is performed for the detergent attached to the tableware 59 and the like.
 次に、さらに衛生的に仕上げるために、70℃~80℃の高温の加熱されたきれいな洗浄水ですすぐ加熱すすぎステップが行われる。加熱すすぎステップの次に乾燥ステップが行われる。乾燥ステップでは、外気が送風ファン63により洗浄槽52内に取り入れられる。そして、取り入れられた外気がヒータ58により加熱して暖められた後、食器類59の間に流される。これにより、食器類59に付着した水滴が乾かされ、食器類59が乾燥される。 Next, for a more sanitary finish, a heating and rinsing step is performed with clean heated water heated at a high temperature of 70 ° C. to 80 ° C. A drying step follows the heating rinse step. In the drying step, outside air is taken into the cleaning tank 52 by the blower fan 63. Then, after the outside air taken in is heated and heated by the heater 58, it flows between the dishes 59. Thereby, the water drop adhering to the tableware 59 is dried, and the tableware 59 is dried.
 このような従来の食器洗い機50において、ワイヤ製の食器かごに樹脂製の食器かごを組み合わせ、着脱可能とするとともに、さまざまな形状の食器をセットできるようにしたものが提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。図11は、従来の食器洗い機の食器かご60の斜視図である。図12は、従来の食器洗い機50の食器かご60の平面図である。図13は、従来の食器洗い機50の樹脂性のセットかご67の平面図である。 In such a conventional dishwasher 50, a combination of a tableware basket made of resin and a tableware basket made of resin so that it can be attached and detached and various types of tableware can be set has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1). FIG. 11 is a perspective view of a dish basket 60 of a conventional dishwasher. FIG. 12 is a plan view of a dish basket 60 of a conventional dishwasher 50. FIG. 13 is a plan view of a resin set basket 67 of the conventional dishwasher 50.
 食器かご60は、ワイヤ製の縦桟および横桟により格子状の枠体60aとして構成されている。そして、食器かご60の一部の領域には、皿類が戴置される皿類セット部66が形成されている。皿類セット部66には、ワイヤを上部に突出させて皿類の表面および裏面の一部を支持する支持ピン66aが形成されている。皿類セット部66においては、皿類が横向きに立てられて、すなわち、皿類の表面および裏面が洗浄槽52の側壁と相対するように立てられて、皿類の表面および裏面の一部が支持ピン66aに支持されて戴置される。 The tableware basket 60 is configured as a grid-like frame body 60a by vertical bars and horizontal bars made of wire. A dish set unit 66 on which dishes are placed is formed in a partial area of the tableware basket 60. The dish set portion 66 is formed with support pins 66a that project the wire upward and support a part of the front and back surfaces of the dish. In the dish setting unit 66, the dishes are set up sideways, that is, the dishes are set up so that the front and back surfaces of the dishes are opposed to the side walls of the cleaning tank 52, and a part of the front and back surfaces of the dishes are placed. The support pin 66a is supported and placed.
 さらに、食器かご60には、格子状の枠体60aの縦桟または横桟に沿って、複数の食器セット部67aが列をなして配置されている。各食器セット部67aには、碗類などを戴置するための樹脂製のセットかご67が着脱可能に取り付けられている。また、セットかご67は、格子状の枠体60aのフラットな底面の上に戴置されている。 Furthermore, in the tableware basket 60, a plurality of tableware set portions 67a are arranged in a row along the vertical or horizontal rail of the lattice-like frame 60a. Each tableware set portion 67a is detachably attached with a resin set cage 67 for placing moss and the like. The set cage 67 is placed on the flat bottom surface of the lattice-shaped frame body 60a.
 複数の食器セット部67aの列の間67bは、洗浄ノズル57により噴射された洗浄水を食器類59に効率よく当てるため、図12に示すように、なるべく大きい隙間を有する構成となっている。 In order to efficiently apply the cleaning water sprayed by the cleaning nozzle 57 to the tableware 59, the space 67b between the rows of the plurality of tableware setting sections 67a has a structure having a gap as large as possible as shown in FIG.
 また、セットかご67には、図13に示すように、複数の突起形状などからなる支持ピン68が配置されている。食器洗い機50において、食器を効率よく洗浄するために、どのセットかご67にどの食器をどのように戴置させるかは、食器洗い機50が使用される度、使用者により判断され、決定される。例えば、使用者がセットかご67に碗類を載置する場合、洗浄ノズル57から噴射される洗浄水が碗類に効率よく当たるように、複数の支持ピン68を利用して碗類が支持される位置を変えて戴置する。このように、セットかご67の支持ピン68を利用することにより、食器かご60にさまざまな形状の食器が載置される。 Further, as shown in FIG. 13, the set cage 67 is provided with support pins 68 having a plurality of projection shapes and the like. In the dishwasher 50, in order to wash dishes efficiently, which tableware is placed in which set basket 67 is determined and determined by the user every time the dishwasher 50 is used. For example, when the user places the moss on the set basket 67, the moss is supported by using a plurality of support pins 68 so that the cleaning water sprayed from the cleaning nozzle 57 efficiently contacts the moss. Change the position to be placed. In this way, by using the support pins 68 of the set basket 67, various types of tableware are placed on the tableware basket 60.
 しかしながら、上記従来の構成では、図12に示す複数の食器セット部67aの列の間67bは、食器かご60の強度を保つ程度の大きな隙間を有する格子で形成され、食器が載置されるように構成されていない。また、複数の食器セット部67aに、各食器セット部67aの底面を構成する格子の隙間よりも小さい形状および寸法の小物食器が戴置された場合は、小物食器が格子の隙間を通り抜けてセットかご67の下方に落下したり、小物食器が支持ピン68に十分に支持されずにぐらついたりして、安定して載置されないという問題を有している。 However, in the above conventional configuration, the space 67b between the rows of the plurality of tableware set portions 67a shown in FIG. 12 is formed by a lattice having a large gap enough to maintain the strength of the tableware basket 60 so that the tableware is placed. Is not configured. In addition, when small tableware having a shape and size smaller than the lattice gap constituting the bottom surface of each tableware set portion 67a is placed on the plurality of tableware set portions 67a, the small tableware is set through the lattice gap. There is a problem that it falls below the car 67 or the small tableware is not sufficiently supported by the support pins 68 and is not supported stably.
 また、上述のとおり、食器洗い機50において、食器類59を最も効率よく洗浄するために、どのセットかご67にどの食器をどのように戴置させるかは、使用者の判断に委ねられるため、食器の洗浄効率性にバラつきが生じる。食器類59の戴置の仕方によっては、食器類59が効率よく洗浄されず、食器類59に汚れが残ってしまう場合もある。 In addition, as described above, in the dishwasher 50, in order to wash the dishes 59 most efficiently, it is up to the user to decide which table and how to place in which set basket 67. Variations in cleaning efficiency occur. Depending on how the tableware 59 is placed, the tableware 59 may not be washed efficiently, and the tableware 59 may remain dirty.
 さらに、使用者は、様々な形状の食器類59をどのセットかご67にどのように戴置させれば安定して戴置できるかを、試行錯誤しながら判断しなければならないため、食器類59の戴置に時間がかかるという問題がある。 Furthermore, since the user has to determine, through trial and error, how to place the tableware 59 having various shapes on which set basket 67 to stably place the tableware 59, the tableware 59 There is a problem that it takes time to be placed.
