Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dishwasher technology, and in particular to an adjustable height dishwasher dish rack. Background Technology

[0002] The dish rack is an important component of a dishwasher, used to hold the dishes to be washed. Dishes come in various sizes, and when washing large dishes or cookware, their height often prevents the rack from accommodating them, making it difficult for the dishwasher to clean them effectively. To address this issue, some dishwashers feature height-adjustable racks. By adjusting the relative height between racks, a larger clearance can be created between the racks, thus accommodating larger dishes or cookware and increasing the dishwasher's versatility. However, current dishwasher rack adjustment mechanisms are cumbersome and unreliable, affecting the smoothness of rack adjustments.

[0003] To address this issue, an adjustable-height dishwasher rack is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable height dishwasher rack with a reliable structure that can smoothly adjust the height of the dishwasher rack.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the problem is: an adjustable height dishwasher dish rack, including a dish rack body, with adjustment racks and supports slidably connected to the dish rack on both sides, a handle rotatably connected to the adjustment rack, an abutment groove on the adjustment rack, a protrusion at the front end of the support, and a sliding groove at the rear end of the handle, with the protrusion located in the sliding groove; when the dish rack body is in the lowest position, the abutment groove engages with the protrusion, and when the dish rack body is in the highest position, the protrusion engages with the handle.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the water guide channel is perpendicular to the through channel, or the included angle between the water guide channel and the through channel is an acute angle.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the handle includes a vertically arranged adjustment part located in a slide groove. When the main body of the bowl basket is in the highest position, the protrusion abuts against the bottom of the adjustment part.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the front end of the adjustment part is provided with an elastic part, and the adjustment frame is provided with a limiting groove, and the elastic part abuts against the limiting groove.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the abutment groove is provided with a shaft hole, and the upper part of the handle is provided with a shaft rod, which is rotatably connected to the shaft hole.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, vertical ribs are provided on both sides of the main body of the bowl basket, and a connecting buckle is provided on the bracket, which is slidably connected to the ribs.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a pulley is provided on the outer side of the bracket, and the pulley is used to slide in connection with the slide rail on the dishwasher.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the inner end of the connecting buckle is provided with a rib, and the cross-section of the rib is arc-shaped.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: when adjusting the height of the main body of the bowl basket, the user can move the main body of the bowl basket up and down by holding the handle, so that the adjustment frame slides up and down relative to the support. During the up and down movement of the main body of the bowl basket, the protrusion on the support always moves in the slide groove, which can play a guiding role and better stability, making the adjustment of the main body of the bowl basket smoother.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 6 An adjustable height dishwasher dish rack includes a dish rack body 1, an adjustment frame 2 and a bracket 3 slidably connected to the dish rack on both sides, a handle 4 rotatably connected to the adjustment frame 2, an abutment groove 21 on the adjustment frame 2, a protrusion 31 at the front end of the bracket 3, and a sliding groove 41 at the rear end of the handle 4, with the protrusion 31 located within the sliding groove 41.

[0027] When adjusting the height of the main body 1 of the bowl basket, the user can move the main body 1 of the bowl basket up and down by holding the handle 4, so that the adjustment frame 2 slides up and down relative to the support 3. During the up and down movement of the main body 1 of the bowl basket, the protrusion 31 on the support 3 always moves within the slide groove 41, which can provide guidance and better stability, making the adjustment of the main body 1 of the bowl basket smoother.

[0028] When the main body 1 of the bowl basket is in the lowest position, the abutment groove 21 overlaps with the protrusion 31. When the main body 1 of the bowl basket is in the highest position, the protrusion 31 overlaps with the handle 4.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the handle 4 includes a vertically arranged adjustment part 42 located within the slide groove 41. When the main body of the bowl basket 1 is in the highest position, the protrusion 31 abuts against the bottom of the adjustment part 42.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the front end of the adjustment part 42 is provided with an elastic part 43, and the adjustment frame 2 is provided with a limiting groove 22, and the elastic part 43 abuts against the limiting groove 22.

[0031] When the user holds the handle 4, the handle 4 will rotate and squeeze the elastic part 43. At this time, the height of the bowl basket body 1 can be adjusted up and down. When the user releases the handle 4, the elastic part 43 will spring back the handle 4 and prevent the handle 4 from rotating.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the abutment groove 21 is provided with a shaft hole 23, and the upper part of the handle 4 is provided with a shaft 44, which is rotatably connected to the shaft hole 23.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, vertically arranged ribs 11 are provided on both sides of the main body 1 of the bowl basket, and a connecting buckle 33 is provided on the bracket 3, which is slidably connected to the ribs 11.
