Detailed Implementation
[0017] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0018] See appendix Figure 1-4This application provides an adjustable shelf for a dishwasher, which includes a shelf body 1, a guide rail 2, and multiple auxiliary shelf assemblies. The auxiliary shelf assemblies are used to support or fix tableware. The guide rail 2 is detachably installed on the shelf body 1. The auxiliary shelf assemblies are slidably connected to the guide rail 2. The guide rail 2 is provided with multiple first positioning structures 3. The auxiliary shelf assemblies are provided with second positioning structures 4 that cooperate with the first positioning structures 3. The second positioning structure 4 is connected to the first positioning structure 3 to keep the auxiliary shelf assemblies in their current position on the guide rail 2. The user can adjust the spacing between the auxiliary shelf assemblies according to the size of the tableware to be placed, so as to facilitate the placement of tableware of different sizes.
[0019] The first positioning structure 3 is a recess, and the second positioning structure 4 is a protrusion. By forcefully sliding the auxiliary frame group, the protrusion on the auxiliary frame group is connected to the recess at different positions on the guide rail to adjust the distance between each auxiliary frame group. In order to save more effort when the protrusion is disengaged from the recess, the recess is an arc-shaped recess, and the protrusion is an arc-shaped protrusion.
[0020] The auxiliary frame assembly includes a base 5 and an auxiliary frame 6. The base 5 is slidably connected to the guide rail 2. The second positioning structure 4 is disposed on the base 5. The auxiliary frame 6 is detachably installed on the base 5. The auxiliary frame 6 is designed to be detachable to facilitate the user's replacement with auxiliary frames of different shapes. Specifically, the base 5 is provided with a first elastic slot 7, and the auxiliary frame 6 has a snap-fit part 8 that connects to the first elastic slot 7, thereby achieving quick assembly and disassembly of the auxiliary frame through a snap-fit method.
[0021] To make the auxiliary frame 6 more stable after being installed on the frame base 5, the first elastic slot 7 is in the shape of a cross. The first elastic slot 7 has a first anti-detachment protrusion 9 on its slot wall. The locking part 8 matches the shape of the first elastic slot 7. The cross-shaped locking part 8 and the cross-shaped first elastic slot 7 cooperate to make the auxiliary frame structure more stable and have better load-bearing capacity. The first anti-detachment protrusion 9 can prevent the locking part 8 from easily detaching from the first elastic slot 7.
[0022] The auxiliary frame 6 includes a horizontal bar 61 and a plurality of vertical bars 62 evenly distributed on the horizontal bar 61. The shape of the auxiliary frame can be selected and set according to actual needs to meet more tableware placement requirements.
[0023] The auxiliary frame 6 is made of carbon steel, while the base 5 and guide rail 2 are made of plastic. The use of plastic for the base 5 and guide rail 2 facilitates the disassembly and installation of the guide rail, as well as the disassembly and installation of the auxiliary frame 6 from the base.
[0024] The bottom of the shelf body 1 is provided with a crossbeam 10 and a longitudinal beam 11, and the bottom of the guide rail 2 is provided with a cross-shaped beam groove 12. The beam groove 12 has an expandable elastic narrow opening. The beam groove 12 is connected to the crossbeam 10 and the longitudinal beam 11. The above structure can make the guide rail 2 more securely installed on the shelf body 1.
[0025] This application also provides a dishwasher having the adjustable shelf described in the above embodiments.
[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art based on the content disclosed in the present utility model should be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
