Benefits of technology

The invention is a dishwasher that reduces noise by minimizing the gap between the lower part of the main body and the mounting surface. This is achieved by installing a front panel on the front surface of the main body, which can be adjusted in a vertical direction and has a closure made of flexible material connected to it. The front panel can be fixed to the main body using screws and screw holes, and the lower end of the door can be higher than the front panel to maintain it above the horizontal frame of the main body. This design reduces noise and improves the user experience.

Problems solved by technology

Thus, noise perceived by a user is high.
Particularly, in the case that a height of the supporting legs is increased to expand the gap between the lower end of the main body and the mounting surface, the noise may be more highly increased.
