[0034] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0035] First, refer to Figures 1-8 A dishwasher according to a second aspect embodiment of the present invention will be briefly described. The dishwasher includes a base assembly 100 and a spray arm, the spray arm being mounted on the base assembly 100.
[0036] The following is for reference. Figures 1-8 The base assembly 100 of a dishwasher according to a first aspect of the present invention is described.
[0037] like Figures 1-8 As shown, the base assembly 100 of the dishwasher according to the first aspect of the present invention includes: a base 20 and a reinforcing member 10. The base 20 includes a base body 21 and a water cup 22, and the water cup 22 is connected to the base body 21. The reinforcing member 10 is disposed on the lower side of the base body 21 and is connected between the base body 21 and the water cup 22.
[0038] In this embodiment, the base 20 is provided with a base body 21 and a water cup 22 to meet the needs of the dishwasher. The water cup 22 is connected to the base body 21. For example, the water cup 22 and the base body 21 can be connected and assembled by snap-fit, welding or other methods. The water cup 22 and the base body 21 can also be an integral part. The spray arm can be installed on the base body 21.
[0039] Understandably, during long-term operation of the dishwasher, the base body 21 needs to support the water cup 22 and other parts and devices. The weight of the water cup 22, motor, electric pump, etc., exerts a continuous downward force on the base body 21, making it prone to deformation and sinking. This is especially true when the dishwasher is operating at high temperatures, where the higher temperature significantly affects the deformation of the base body 21. For example, if the base body 21 is made of plastic, it is more likely to deform and sink under the weight of the water cup 22 and other components in a high-temperature environment. This causes the operating angle of the spray arm mounted on it to change and become skewed, resulting in the spray arm scraping and interfering with the base body 21 during rotation. This increases the probability of dishwasher malfunctions and reduces the stability and reliability of the dishwasher during long-term use.
[0040] In this embodiment, the reinforcing member 10 is connected to the base body 21 and the water cup 22, which greatly improves the overall structural strength of the base body 21 and the water cup 22. This allows the base body 21 to better withstand the weight of the water cup 22 and other components, maintains a stable structural state, effectively reduces the deformation of the base body 21, and allows the base assembly 100 to operate more stably and reliably, thus making the dishwasher more stable and reliable during long-term operation.
[0041] According to the present invention, the base assembly 100 of the dishwasher has a simple structure by setting a reinforcing member 10, which is connected to the water cup 22 and the base body 21. This structure greatly improves the overall structural strength and stability of the base 20, thereby effectively improving the deformation and sinking of the base body 21. This allows the base assembly 100 to operate stably and reliably, making the dishwasher more stable and reliable during long-term operation.
[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the reinforcing member 10 is formed as a first reinforcing member 10a, which may include: a reinforcing body 11, the reinforcing body 11 being arranged along a first direction (e.g., Figure 2 Extending in the forward and backward directions (as shown), the first direction and the up and down directions (as shown) Figure 2 The two bodies intersect in the vertical direction shown. One end of the reinforcing body 11 is detachably connected to the water cup 22, and the other end of the reinforcing body 11 is detachably connected to the base body 21.
[0043] In this embodiment, the first reinforcing member 10a is provided with a reinforcing body 11. The reinforcing body 11 extends along the first direction and its two ends are detachably connected to the water cup 22 and the base body 21, respectively. The structure is simple and facilitates the assembly, fixation, disassembly, and maintenance of the first reinforcing member 10a with the water cup 22 and the base body 21. This allows the first reinforcing member 10a to stably connect the water cup 22 and the base body 21, thereby improving the overall stability and structural strength of the base body 21 and the water cup 22. For example, the first reinforcing member 10a can be connected and fixed to the base body 21 and the water cup 22 by means of snap-fit connection, threaded connection, screw connection, etc.
[0044] In one example of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lower end face of the reinforcing body 11 can extend along the first direction. This reduces the size of the first reinforcing member 10a in the vertical direction, allowing the first reinforcing member 10a to be easily assembled into the base assembly 100.
[0045] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, one end of the reinforcing body 11 may be provided with a first support plate 12. The first support plate 12 extends in the vertical direction, and one side surface of the first support plate 12 in the thickness direction is attached to and abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the water cup 22.
[0046] In this embodiment, a first support plate 12 is provided at one end of the reinforcing body 11. The first support plate 12 extends in the vertical direction and abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the water cup 22. This simple structure increases the contact area between the first reinforcing member 10a and the water cup 22, making the connection between them more stable and reliable, and increasing the connection strength. This allows the first reinforcing member 10a to provide a stable and reliable connection and reinforcement to the overall structure of the water cup 22 and the base body 21. In this embodiment, one side surface of the first support plate 12 in the thickness direction abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the water cup 22, giving the first support plate 12 a larger contact area with the outer peripheral wall of the water cup 22. This ensures that the first support plate 12 can stably and reliably engage and abut against the outer peripheral wall of the water cup 22.
[0047] In this embodiment, the first support plate 12 is attached to the outer peripheral wall of the water cup 22. The side surface of the first support plate 12 that abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22 can be set as an arc-shaped structure to fit with it, so as to stably attach to the outer peripheral wall of the water cup 22.
[0048] In some examples of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12 can be arranged at an angle. The first reinforcing member 10a also includes a first rib 13, which is connected between the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12.
[0049] In this embodiment, the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12 are arranged at an angle, resulting in a simple structure that meets the connection requirements of the first reinforcing member 10a with the base body 21 and the water cup 22. A first rib 13 is provided between the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12, improving the overall structural integrity of the structure formed by the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12 through the first rib 13. This enhances the overall structural strength of the reinforcing body 11, the first support plate 12, and the first rib 13, allowing the first reinforcing member 10a to be stably and reliably connected to the water cup 22 through the first support plate 12 and the reinforcing body 11. For example, the first rib 13 can be connected in the angled space formed by the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12. The other side surface of the first support plate 12 in the thickness direction can be connected to the first rib 13 within its vertical extension range. The first rib 13 is connected to the reinforcing body 11. For example, the first rib 13 can be a triangular rib.
[0050] In one example of this utility model, one end of the reinforcing body 11 can be detachably connected to the lower end face of the water cup 22. This allows the first reinforcing member 10a to provide some support for the water cup 22 in the vertical direction, thereby dispersing the force of the weight of the water cup 22 on the base body 21, reducing the impact of the weight of the water cup 22 on the base body 21, and improving the structural stability of the base body 21.
[0051] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the other end of the reinforcing body 11 may be provided with a second support plate 14, and one side surface of the second support plate 14 in the thickness direction is in contact with the lower surface of the base body 21.
[0052] In this embodiment, a second support plate 14 is provided at the other end of the reinforcing main body 11. One side surface of the second support plate 14 in the thickness direction is in close contact with the lower surface of the base body 21. The structure is simple and can increase the contact area between the first reinforcing member 10a and the base body 21, making the connection between the first reinforcing member 10a and the base body 21 more stable and reliable, and the connection strength higher. Thus, the first reinforcing member 10a provides a stable and reliable connection and reinforcement for the overall structure of the water cup 22 and the base body 21. In this embodiment, one side surface of the second support plate 14 in the thickness direction is in close contact with the lower surface of the base body 21, so that the second support plate 14 and the lower surface of the base body 21 can have a large contact area, thereby allowing the second support plate 14 to stably and reliably cooperate and abut against the lower surface of the base body 21.
[0053] In this embodiment, the second support plate 14 is attached to and abuts against the lower surface of the base body 21. This can mean that the second support plate 14 is attached to and abuts against the lower large surface of the base body 21, or it can mean that the end face of the rib or other structure formed on the lower surface of the base body 21 is attached to and abuts against the second support plate 14. This facilitates the assembly and connection of the first reinforcing member 10a between the base body 21 and the water cup 22. The second support plate 14 is attached to the lower surface of the base body 21. For example, when an arc surface is formed at the part where the lower surface of the base body 21 mates with the second support plate 14, the side surface of the second support plate 14 facing the lower surface of the base body 21 can also be set as an arc surface structure to mate with it and fit against the lower surface.
[0054] In one example of this utility model, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second support plate 14 and the reinforcing body 11 can be arranged at an angle. The first reinforcing member 10a is also provided with a second rib 15, which connects the reinforcing body 11 and the second support plate 14.
[0055] In this embodiment, the reinforcing body 11 and the second support plate 14 are arranged at an angle, which is simple in structure and can meet the connection requirements of the first reinforcing member 10a with the base body 21 and the water cup 22. A second rib 15 is provided between the reinforcing body 11 and the second support plate 14, which makes the overall structure formed by the reinforcing body 11 and the second support plate 14 through the second rib 15 better, and makes the overall structural strength of the reinforcing body 11, the second support plate 14 and the second rib 15 higher, so that the first reinforcing member 10a can be stably and reliably connected to the base body 21 through the second support plate 14 and the reinforcing body 11.
[0056] For example, the second rib 15 can be connected in the angled space formed by the reinforcing body 11 and the second support plate 14. The other side surface of the second support plate 14 in the thickness direction can be connected to the second rib 15 within the extension range of the first direction. The second rib 15 is connected to the reinforcing body 11. For example, the second rib 15 can be a triangular rib.
[0057] In one example of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the second support plate 14 can extend along the first direction. This can improve the connection stability between the first reinforcing member 10a and the base body 21 in the first direction, and the second support plate 14, the connecting body, and the first support plate 12 can cooperate to form a right-angle structure. The second support plate 14 of the first reinforcing member 10a abuts against the base body 21, and the first support plate 12 abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22. This allows the first reinforcing member 10a to withstand the forces on the water cup 22 and the base body 21 in the vertical and first directions, so that the first reinforcing member 10a can stably and reliably connect the water cup 22 and the base body 21, thereby mitigating the deformation and sinking of the base body 21 to a certain extent.
[0058] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, both ends of the reinforcing body 11 can be formed with fixing posts, which can extend in the vertical direction. The reinforcing body 11, the lower end face of the water cup 22, and the lower side surface of the base body 21 can be fastened together by the fixing posts. This allows the reinforcing body 11 to be easily connected and fixed to the water cup 22 and the base body 21, and the first reinforcing member 10a to be stably connected to the water cup 22 and the base body 21. Furthermore, the fixing post can be a sleeve structure, and the lower end face of the water cup 22 and the lower side surface of the base body 21 can be correspondingly provided with rod structures. The fixing post is fitted onto the rod, which can further improve the connection strength between the first reinforcing member 10a and the water cup 22 and the base body 21, so that the first reinforcing member 10a can be more stably and reliably connected and fixed to the water cup 22 and the base body 21. The sleeve structure can facilitate the positioning and assembly of the first reinforcing member 10a with the water cup 22 and the base body 21, making the assembly of the first reinforcing member 10a with the water cup 22 and the base body 21 more convenient and efficient.
[0059] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first reinforcing member 10a can be a single piece.
[0060] In this embodiment, the first reinforcing member 10a is set as an integral part, which has a simple structure and makes the overall structural strength and stability of the first reinforcing member 10a better. This allows the first reinforcing member 10a to stably and reliably connect the water cup 22 and the base 20 of the water cup 22, thereby improving the overall structural stability and strength of the base 20. It also facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the first reinforcing member 10a with the water cup 22 and the base body 21, and makes it easy to maintain and replace.
[0061] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a clearance space 101 is formed on the upward-facing side of the first reinforcing member 10a, and the clearance space 101 is adapted to avoid the pump connector 40.
[0062] In this embodiment, a clearance space 101 is formed on the upward-facing side of the first reinforcing member 10a to avoid the pump connector 40. The structure is simple and can satisfy the assembly arrangement of the first reinforcing member 10a and the pump connector 40 on the base body 21, avoiding interference between them. This allows the first reinforcing member 10a to be easily assembled onto the base body 21. For example, refer to... Figure 4 As shown, the reinforcing body 11 on the first reinforcing member 10a can cooperate with the first rib 13, the second rib 15, the first support plate 12 and the second support plate 14 to define the clearance space 101.
[0063] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 2As shown, the base assembly 100 may also include a chassis cover 50, which is connected to the base body 21 and located on the lower side of the base body 21. In the vertical direction, the chassis cover 50 is located on the lower side of the reinforcing member 10 and is spaced apart from the reinforcing member 10.
[0064] In this embodiment, the base assembly 100 is equipped with a chassis cover 50, which has a simple structure and can meet the assembly and use needs of the dishwasher. The chassis cover 50 can provide good protection for the reinforcing member 10, water cup 22, and other components on the underside of the base body 21, allowing the dishwasher to operate stably. In this example, the chassis cover 50 and the reinforcing member 10 are arranged at intervals, which can effectively prevent the chassis cover 50 and the reinforcing member 10 from colliding during the transportation of the dishwasher, thus preventing the water cup 22 from colliding with other components. This improves the overall structural stability of the dishwasher during transportation, does not increase the transportation risk, and allows the dishwasher to be transported according to the original packaging and transportation methods.
[0065] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the reinforcing member 10 is formed as a second reinforcing member 10b, and the base assembly 100 also includes a pump connector 40, which is located on the lower side of the base body 21 and connected to the base body 21. The second reinforcing member 10b is connected between the water cup 22 and the pump connector 40.
[0066] In this embodiment, the base assembly 100 is provided with a pump connector 40, which is located on the lower side of the base body 21 and connected to it. The structure is simple and meets the operational needs of the dishwasher. In this embodiment, the second reinforcing member 10b is connected between the water cup 22 and the pump connector 40, allowing the second reinforcing member 10b to connect the water cup 22 to the base body 21 from the outside via the pump connector 40. This structure is simple, convenient, and reasonable, effectively improving the stability and overall structural strength of the base body 21, pump connector 40, and water cup 22. This significantly reduces deformation of the base body 21 during long-term use, ensuring stable and reliable operation of the dishwasher over extended periods.
[0067] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second reinforcing member 10b may include a reinforcing plate 16, which is vertically arranged. One end of the reinforcing plate 16 in the horizontal direction is connected to the pump connector 40, and the other end of the reinforcing plate 16 in the horizontal direction abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22.
[0068] In this embodiment, the second reinforcing member 10b is provided with a reinforcing plate 16. One end of the reinforcing plate 16 in the horizontal direction is connected to the pump connector 40, and the other end abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22. The structure is simple and the connection is convenient. Exemplarily, the second reinforcing member 10b and the housing of the pump connector 40 can be an integral part to simplify the assembly steps, improve the connection reliability between the second reinforcing member 10b and the pump connector 40, and thus enable the pump connector 40 and the water cup 22 to be stably and reliably connected and fixed through the second reinforcing member 10b.
[0069] In some examples of this utility model, references Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second reinforcing member 10b may also include a connecting post 17, the other end of the reinforcing plate 16 in the horizontal direction is connected to the connecting post 17, and the connecting post 17 is connected to the water cup 22 by fasteners.
[0070] In this embodiment, the connecting column 17 is connected to the other end of the reinforcing plate 16. The connecting column 17 is connected to the water cup 22 by fasteners. The structure is simple and the fixing is convenient and reliable, so that the pump connector 40 and the water cup 22 can be connected stably and reliably. This makes the water cup 22 and the pump connector 40 have better overall integrity on the base body 21, the overall structure is more stable, and it is also convenient to assemble and fix the second reinforcing member 10b to the water cup 22.
[0071] In some examples of this utility model, references Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the connecting post 17 can be connected to the lower part of the other end of the reinforcing plate 16. In the vertical direction, the upper end of the other end of the reinforcing plate 16 extends beyond the upper end face of the connecting post 17, and the part of the other end of the reinforcing plate 16 that extends beyond the connecting post 17 abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22.
[0072] In this embodiment, the connecting post 17 is connected to the lower part of the other end of the reinforcing plate 16. The upper part of the other end does not extend beyond the upper surface of the connecting post 17 and abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22. The structure is simple and can effectively increase the connection and mating area between the connector and the water cup 22, so that the connector and the water cup 22 can have good connection strength and connection stability. Thus, the water cup 22 and the pump connector 40 can be reliably and stably enhanced in terms of overall structural strength through the second reinforcing member 10b. For example, the reinforcing plate 16 can be a triangular plate structure.
[0073] The following is for reference. Figures 1-8 A dishwasher according to a second aspect of the present invention is described.
[0074] like Figures 1-8 As shown, the dishwasher according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base assembly 100 of the dishwasher according to a first aspect embodiment of the present invention.
[0075] Other configurations and operations of the dishwasher according to embodiments of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
[0076] According to the present invention, the dishwasher has a simple structure. By setting the base assembly 100 of the dishwasher of the first aspect embodiment, and by setting the reinforcing member 10, which is connected to the water cup 22 and the base body 21, the overall structural strength and structural stability of the base 20 are greatly improved. This greatly improves the deformation and sinking of the base body 21, and enables the base assembly 100 to operate stably and reliably, so that the dishwasher can be more stable and reliable during long-term operation.
[0077] The following will refer to Figures 1-8 A dishwasher according to a specific embodiment of the present invention is described.

The base assembly 100 includes a base 20, a reinforcing member 10, a pump connector 40, and a washing pump 30. The base 20 includes a base body 21 and a water cup 22. The water cup 22 is installed on the lower side of the base body 21. The pump connector 40 and the washing pump 30 are both installed on the base body 21 and located on the lower side of the base body 21. The reinforcing member 10 is a first reinforcing member 10a. The first reinforcing member 10a is an integral piece and includes a reinforcing body 11, a first support plate 12, a first rib 13, a second support plate 14, and a second rib 15. The reinforcing body 11 extends along a first direction and its two ends are respectively connected to the first support plate 12 and the second support plate 14. The first rib 13 is connected between the reinforcing body 11 and the first support plate 12. The second rib 15 is connected between the reinforcing body 11 and the second support plate 14. One end of the reinforcing body 11 is fastened to the lower end face of the water cup 22. The first support plate 12 is attached to and abuts against the peripheral wall of the water cup 22. The other end of the reinforcing body 11 is fastened to the base body 21. The second support plate 14 is attached to and abuts against the lower surface of the base body 21. Reinforcing ribs can be provided on the reinforcing body 11, the first support plate 12, the first rib 13, the second support plate 14, and the second rib 15 of the second reinforcing member 10b to further enhance the overall structural strength of the second reinforcing member 10b. During the assembly of the base assembly 100, components such as the water cup 22, the pump connector 40, and the washing pump 30 can be first assembled onto the base body 21. The second reinforcing member 10b is then assembled and fixed to the water cup 22 and the base body 21 to avoid obstructing the washing pump 30 and other structures, maximizing space utilization. The second reinforcing member 10b can be placed within an existing dishwasher to reinforce the structure of the base 20. Due to its simple structure, the second reinforcing member 10b can be easily installed and assembled.
[0079] This embodiment, by setting the base assembly 100 of the dishwasher of the first aspect embodiment above, and by setting the reinforcing member 10, which is connected to the water cup 22 and the base body 21, has a simple structure, which greatly improves the overall structural strength and stability of the base 20, thereby effectively improving the deformation and sinking of the base body 21, and enabling the base assembly 100 to operate stably and reliably, so that the dishwasher can be more stable and reliable during long-term operation.
[0080] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 6-8 As shown, the reinforcing member 10 is the second reinforcing member 10b, which is integrally formed with the pump connector 40. The second reinforcing member 10b is provided with a reinforcing plate 16 and a connecting post 17. The reinforcing plate 16 is connected to the connecting post 17 and the pump connector 40. The connecting post 17 is fastened to the lower end face of the water cup 22. The reinforcing plate 16 abuts against the peripheral side wall of the water cup 22. This allows the second reinforcing member 10b to be integrated into the pump connector 40, making the overall size of the second reinforcing member 10b smaller and eliminating the need for additional parts, thus making the base assembly 100 more convenient to assemble.
[0081] In another embodiment of this utility model, the number of reinforcing members 10 can be two, namely the first reinforcing member 10a and the second reinforcing member 10b. This can further improve the integrity, overall structural strength and stability of the base body 21, water cup 22, pump connector 40 and other structures, so that the dishwasher can operate more stably and reliably during long-term operation.
