Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dishwashers, in particular to a bowl basket assembly for a dishwasher and the dishwasher. Background Art

[0002] For a large number of built-in dishwashers, in order to improve the utilization rate of the inner space of the dishwasher, the "chopstick cage area" is usually extracted separately, and an upper bowl basket rack is added to meet its loading needs. The upper bowl basket rack is placed on the top layer of the inner cavity of the dishwasher. The space of the upper bowl basket rack is relatively flat, and knives, forks, chopsticks, spoons, forks, soup spoons, etc. are placed on this layer. In this way, the space of the middle bowl basket rack and the lower bowl basket rack can be fully utilized for loading dishes, etc.

[0003] For example, in the Chinese utility model patent disclosed in the patent number CN201820735300.8 (publication number CN208926295U), the bowl rack assembly includes three layers of bowl basket racks, namely, a lower bowl basket rack, a middle bowl basket rack (equivalent to the bowl basket below) and an upper bowl basket rack (equivalent to the shelf below), and the upper bowl basket rack can be detachably fixed to the middle bowl basket rack. Both the lower bowl basket rack and the middle bowl basket rack can be pulled out and installed on the body of the dishwasher.

[0004] The bowl basket rack at the top layer also includes a plurality of support legs extending downward from the bowl basket body, and the plurality of support legs can be detachably fixed to the adjacent bowl basket rack at the bottom layer. Figure 2 As shown, the upper bowl basket rack includes a plurality of support legs extending downward from the bowl basket body, and the plurality of support legs can be made of metal and welded to the bowl basket body. The number and distribution of the support legs can be set according to actual needs, as long as the upper bowl basket rack can be stably installed on the middle bowl basket rack, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0005] For further information, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 A hook is formed at the lower end of any supporting leg, and the hook has a downward opening. The adjacent lower bowl basket rack includes a second supporting frame, and the hook is clamped on the frame edge of the second supporting frame (equivalent to the supporting rod below) from the opening.

[0006] However, the opening size of the hook of the patent is fixed, which means that the patent can only be adapted to one specification of upper bowl basket rack, and the versatility is poor; and if the second support frame of the lower bowl basket rack has a large error during manufacturing, the hook will not be able to be connected to the frame edge of the second support frame.
