Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning device technology, and in particular to a dish rack assembly and a dishwasher. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, users generally seek higher loading capacity when using dishwashers. In traditional designs, chopsticks, spoons, and other tableware are usually placed together in a fixed chopsticks basket or top tray; however, these areas have limited capacity. As users' tableware becomes more diverse and numerous, conventional dish rack layouts can no longer meet actual storage needs, directly impacting ease of use and user satisfaction. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a dish rack component and dishwasher to address the problem that the load capacity of conventional dishwashers is insufficient, making it difficult to meet actual storage needs and directly affecting the user experience.

[0004] A bowl basket assembly includes: a basket frame, the basket frame including a frame body and a mounting part, the frame body having a receiving cavity with an open top, and the mounting part being disposed on the side wall of the frame body; a tray, the tray having a spoon placement area and a chopstick placement area, one end of the tray being movably connected to the mounting part, the tray being configured to rotate relative to the basket frame under the action of an external force and having a storage state and a use state, wherein in the use state the tray is positioned horizontally above the receiving cavity, and in the storage state the tray is positioned vertically above the mounting part.

[0005] This application discloses a dish rack assembly, including a basket frame and a tray. By movably connecting the tray to the basket frame mounting part, the tray can be rotated for storage and unfolded for use. In use, the tray rotates horizontally to form a stable platform directly above the receiving cavity of the frame body, thus fully utilizing the space between the upper and lower dish racks and better meeting the user's need for additional tableware. When not in use, the user can easily rotate the tray to the storage position, allowing it to be positioned close to the inner wall of the dishwasher's inner tub along its height, facilitating the placement of tableware within the frame body and allowing users to easily place larger tableware as needed. This solution features a simple and reliable structure, intuitive and convenient tray state switching, effectively balancing space utilization efficiency and operational convenience, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0006] In one embodiment, the mounting portion protrudes above the side wall of the frame body. By adopting the above structure, the height of the tray's movable connection point is raised. On the one hand, this effectively avoids interference between the tray and the tableware in the accommodating cavity when the tray is in the storage state, thus preventing it from occupying storage space. On the other hand, the raised pivot position also optimizes the tray's rotation trajectory between the storage and use states, ensuring that the tray's rotation is not hindered when there are tableware in the accommodating cavity, making it more convenient to use.

[0007] In one embodiment, the tray includes a support body and a rotating part. The support body has a spoon placement area and a chopsticks placement area. The rotating part is located at one end of the support body. The mounting part forms a first mounting rod arranged in a horizontal direction. The rotating part has a shaft hole, and the first mounting rod is inserted into the shaft hole and rotatably engaged with the shaft hole. Under the action of external force, the support body can rotate relative to the basket frame around the first mounting rod. By adopting a rotatable engagement structure between the first mounting rod and the shaft hole of the rotating part, it is ensured that when the support body rotates around a fixed horizontal axis, it can withstand the vertical load caused by the placement of accessories, and the user can easily and smoothly switch the tray between storage and use states with only a small amount of external force.

[0008] In one embodiment, the mounting portion further includes a limiting member connected to the first mounting rod and / or the side wall of the frame body. The limiting member extends along the height direction. The tray further includes a first limiting portion protruding from the support body on the side near the mounting portion. When the tray is in the stored state, the limiting member abuts against the bottom wall of the first limiting portion to restrict the tray from rotating away from the receiving cavity. By adopting the above structure, the limiting member extending along the height direction cooperates with the first limiting portion on the support body. When the tray rotates to the stored position, the bottom wall of the first limiting portion abuts against the limiting member, thereby effectively preventing the tray from overturning due to inertia or other reasons, ensuring the stability and reliability of the stored state, and avoiding possible collisions or interference between the tray and the inner side wall of the inner liner.

[0009] In one embodiment, the top of the limiting member is recessed to form a notch, and the bottom wall of the first limiting part is provided with a rib, which is disposed in the notch. By adopting the above structure, the cooperation between the rib of the first limiting part and the notch of the limiting member forms a limiting effect, realizing the positioning and assembly between the first limiting part and the limiting member, and between the rotating part and the first mounting rod, effectively avoiding displacement and shaking of the tray in the length direction of the first mounting rod, making the storage and use of the tray more stable.

[0010] In one embodiment, the tray further includes a first abutment portion disposed on the side wall of the support body near the mounting portion. The first abutment portion and the rotating portion are spaced apart along the length of the support body. The bottom of the rotating portion has an opening communicating with the shaft hole. The end of the first abutment portion away from the support body forms an arc-shaped abutment surface adapted to the first mounting rod. One side of the peripheral wall of the first mounting rod abuts against the side of the inner wall of the shaft hole away from the opening, and the other side of the peripheral wall of the first mounting rod abuts against the arc-shaped abutment surface. By adopting the above structure, the opening communicating with the shaft hole greatly facilitates the insertion of the first mounting rod into the shaft hole. At the same time, by adding a first abutment portion spaced apart from the rotating portion, it works in conjunction with the rotating portion to form a stable clamping on both sides of the first mounting rod in the circumferential direction. Specifically, one side of the first mounting rod is supported by the inner wall of the shaft hole, and the other side is tightly abutted by the arc-shaped abutting surface of the first abutting end, thereby firmly restricting the first mounting rod within the enclosed space formed by the shaft hole and the abutting surface, ensuring that the pallet can rotate stably around the first mounting rod, and greatly enhancing the structural rigidity and load-bearing capacity of the pallet in use.

[0011] In one embodiment, there are multiple rotating parts and multiple first abutting parts, and the multiple rotating parts and multiple first abutting parts are alternately distributed on the support body along the length direction of the first mounting rod.

[0012] In one embodiment, the opening diameter is smaller than the diameter of the first mounting rod, and the first mounting rod can be reversibly opened to enter the shaft hole. By employing this design, the rotating part can only be separated from the first mounting rod when the user applies external force, ensuring that the tray can rotate stably around the first mounting rod and will not easily become loose.

[0013] In one embodiment, the tray further includes a second abutment portion, which protrudes from the side wall of the support body near the mounting portion. The mounting portion includes a second mounting rod, which is connected to the first mounting rod and / or the side wall of the frame body. When the tray is in use, the second mounting rod abuts against the side wall of the second abutment portion. The cooperation between the second mounting rod and the second abutment portion provides a support point for the tray in use. The side wall of the second abutment portion abuts against the second mounting rod, which, on the one hand, can share the torque and load borne by the main bearing of the first mounting rod to a certain extent, and on the other hand, can better assist the support body in maintaining a horizontal arrangement, ensuring that the tableware on the tray can be stored stably.

[0014] In one embodiment, the second mounting rod is positioned along the height direction on the side of the first mounting rod closest to the tray. This facilitates the mounting of the first mounting rod onto the frame body via the second mounting rod, and also helps to reduce the thickness of the second abutment portion.

[0015] In one embodiment, the tray further includes a second limiting part, which protrudes from the support body on the side near the mounting part. The second limiting part has a locking position. The mounting part further includes a limiting rod, which is connected to the first mounting rod and / or the side wall of the frame body. When the tray is in the stored state, the limiting rod is engaged in the locking position. When the tray is in the stored state, the limiting part is away from the locking position. By providing a limiting rod and a limiting part on the mounting part and the second limiting part respectively, when the tray is flipped to the stored state, the limiting rod can engage with the locking position on the second limiting part to form a limiting effect, so that the tray can stably remain vertical.

[0016] In one embodiment, the bottom wall of the spoon placement area is provided with several placement holes for inserting a single spoon. These placement holes communicate with the receiving cavity. Two opposite sidewalls of each placement hole are provided with limiting protrusions that abut against the spoon head to keep the spoon vertical. By employing this structure, using several placement holes for independently inserting a single spoon allows for separation between spoons, ensuring each spoon is fully exposed and avoids obstruction. Simultaneously, the limiting protrusions on the inner walls of the placement holes, when the spoon is inserted upside down, abut against the spoon head to provide a limiting effect, better maintaining the spoon's vertical position and allowing its outer surface to be more thoroughly cleaned by the spray, avoiding dead corners and ensuring a clean effect.

[0017] In one embodiment, the top of the tray is recessed to form a spoon placement area and a chopsticks placement area, with the spoon placement area having a greater depth than the chopsticks placement area. This structure allows for a more efficient use of the tray's storage space and prevents the spoon head from touching the bottom wall or inner wall of the upper bowl basket assembly when the spoon is inserted upside down into the placement hole.

[0018] In one embodiment, the chopsticks placement area and the spoon placement area are axially separated along the rotation axis of the tray. By optimizing the layout of the chopsticks placement area and the spoon placement area, the width of the tray can better fit the gap between the upper and lower dish racks, so that when the tray is rotated to the storage state, it can be arranged vertically and close to the inner wall of the dishwasher's inner tub.

[0019] In one embodiment, the chopsticks placement area is provided with at least two rows of limiting rows at intervals. All the limiting rows are arranged in parallel, and each limiting row has at least two limiting grooves along its length, with each limiting groove accommodating a portion of one chopstick. By adopting the above structure, the parallel arrangement of the limiting rows naturally forms a hollowed-out spoon placement area, which not only supports the chopsticks well, but also allows water on the chopsticks to drip down into the wastewater collection area of ​​the dishwasher through the hollow structure. In addition, the limiting grooves on the at least two rows of limiting rows can limit the chopsticks, ensuring that each chopstick remains parallel and separate and is less likely to shift, allowing the outer surface of the chopsticks to be more thoroughly cleaned by the spray.

[0020] In one embodiment, the limiting strip is a wavy support bar, and the limiting groove is formed at the trough of the wavy support bar. This structure facilitates the placement of chopsticks and improves the cleaning effect of chopsticks.

[0021] In one embodiment, the limiting groove is arranged in an inverted triangular shape.

[0022] In one embodiment, all the limiting slots are spaced apart along the axial direction of the rotation axis of the tray. This allows the sidewalls of the chopsticks to remain inclined relative to the horizontal plane when placed on the limiting slots, enabling water droplets on the chopsticks to slide more easily into the wastewater collection area of ​​the dishwasher.

[0023] The second aspect of the application provides a dishwasher.

[0024] A dishwasher includes: an inner tub; and the aforementioned dish rack assembly, wherein the dish rack assembly is disposed within the inner tub. The dishwasher provided in the second aspect of this application, by employing any of the aforementioned dish rack assemblies, allows the tray to be rotatably mounted on the basket frame and to have both a storage and a use state. In the use state, the tray rotates horizontally to form a stable platform directly above the receiving cavity of the frame body for placing spoons and chopsticks, thereby fully utilizing the space between the upper and lower dish racks and better meeting the user's need to increase tableware placement. When not in use, the user can easily rotate the tray to the storage state, causing the tray to be distributed along its height direction close to the inner wall of the dishwasher's inner tub, providing convenience for placing tableware within the frame body.

Detailed Implementation

[0035] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0036] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0037] The bowl basket assembly of some embodiments of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, this embodiment discloses a bowl basket assembly, including: a basket frame 1, the basket frame 1 including a frame body 11 and a mounting part 12, the frame body 11 having a receiving cavity 101 with an open top, and the mounting part 12 being disposed on the side wall of the frame body 11; a tray 2, the tray 2 having a spoon placement area 201 and a chopsticks placement area 202, one end of the tray 2 being movably connected to the mounting part 12, the tray 2 being configured to be able to rotate relative to the basket frame 1 under the action of external force and having a storage state and a use state. When in the use state, the tray 2 is disposed above the receiving cavity 101 in the horizontal direction, and when in the storage state, the tray 2 is distributed above the mounting part 12 in the height direction.

[0039] This application discloses a dish rack assembly, including a basket frame 1 and a tray 2. The tray 2 is movably connected to the mounting part 12 of the basket frame 1, enabling the tray 2 to be rotated for storage and unfolded for use. In use, the tray 2 rotates horizontally to directly above the receiving cavity 101 of the frame body 11, forming a stable storage platform. This fully utilizes the space between the upper and lower dish racks, better meeting the user's need to accommodate more tableware. When not in use, the user can easily rotate the tray 2 to the storage position, allowing it to be positioned close to the inner wall of the dishwasher's inner tub along its height, facilitating the placement of tableware within the frame body 11 and allowing users to place larger tableware as needed. This solution features a simple and reliable structure, and the tray 2's state transition operation is intuitive and convenient, effectively balancing space utilization efficiency and operational convenience, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the mounting part 12 protrudes above the side wall of the frame body 11. By adopting the above structure, the height of the movable connection point of the tray 2 is increased. On the one hand, this effectively avoids interference between the tray 2 and the tableware in the accommodating cavity 101 when the tray 2 is in the storage state, thus avoiding the occupation of storage space. On the other hand, the raised pivot position also optimizes the rotation trajectory of the tray 2 between the storage and use states, so that the rotation of the tray 2 will not be hindered when there are tableware in the accommodating cavity 101, making it more convenient to use.

[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines the following: the tray 2 includes a support body 21 and a rotating part 22. The support body 21 is provided with a spoon placement area 201 and a chopsticks placement area 202. The rotating part 22 is disposed at one end of the support body 21. The mounting part 12 is formed with a first mounting rod 121 arranged in the horizontal direction. The rotating part 22 is provided with a shaft hole 203. The first mounting rod 121 is inserted into the shaft hole 203 and rotates with the shaft hole 203. Under the action of external force, the support body 21 can rotate relative to the basket frame 1 around the first mounting rod 121. By adopting the rotational engagement structure between the first mounting rod 121 and the shaft hole 203 of the rotating part 22, it is ensured that when the support body 21 rotates around a fixed axis in the horizontal direction, it can withstand the vertical load brought by the placement of accessories, and the user can easily and smoothly switch the tray 2 between the storage and use states with only a small amount of external force.

[0042] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the mounting part 12 also includes a limiting member 122, which is connected to the first mounting rod 121 and / or the side wall of the frame body 11. The limiting member 122 extends along the height direction. The tray 2 also includes a first limiting part 23, which protrudes from the side of the support body 21 near the mounting part 12. When the tray 2 is in the storage state, the limiting member 122 abuts against the bottom wall of the first limiting part 23 to restrict the tray 2 from rotating away from the receiving cavity 101. By adopting the above structure, the limiting member 122 extending along the height direction cooperates with the first limiting part 23 on the support body 21. When the tray 2 rotates to the storage position, the bottom wall of the first limiting part 23 abuts against the limiting member 122, thereby effectively preventing the tray 2 from overturning due to inertia and other reasons, ensuring the stability and reliability of the storage state, and avoiding possible collisions or interference between the tray 2 and the inner side wall of the inner liner.

[0043] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the top of the limiting member 122 is recessed to form a notch 102, and the bottom wall of the first limiting part 23 is provided with a rib 24, which is disposed in the notch 102. By adopting the above structure, the rib 24 of the first limiting part 23 and the notch 102 of the limiting member 122 cooperate to form a limiting effect, realizing the positioning assembly between the first limiting part 23 and the limiting member 122, and between the rotating part 22 and the first mounting rod 121, effectively avoiding the displacement and shaking of the tray 2 in the length direction of the first mounting rod 121, making the storage and use state of the tray 2 more stable.

[0044] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the tray 2 also includes a first abutment portion 25, which is disposed on the side wall of the support body 21 near the mounting portion 12. The first abutment portion 25 and the rotating portion 22 are spaced apart along the length direction of the support body 21. The bottom of the rotating portion 22 is provided with an opening communicating with the shaft hole 203. The end of the first abutment portion 25 away from the support body 21 forms an arc-shaped abutment surface adapted to the first mounting rod 121. One side of the peripheral wall of the first mounting rod 121 abuts against the side of the inner wall of the shaft hole 203 away from the opening, and the other side of the peripheral wall of the first mounting rod 121 abuts against the arc-shaped abutment surface. By adopting the above structure, the opening communicating with the shaft hole 203 can greatly facilitate the insertion of the first mounting rod 121 into the shaft hole 203. At the same time, by adding a first abutment portion 25 spaced apart from the rotating portion 22, it works in conjunction with the rotating portion 22 to form a stable clamping on both sides of the circumference of the first mounting rod 121. Specifically, one side of the first mounting rod 121 is supported by the inner wall of the shaft hole 203, and the other side is tightly abutted by the arc-shaped abutting surface of the first abutting end, thereby firmly restricting the first mounting rod 121 within the enclosed space formed by the shaft hole 203 and the abutting surface, ensuring that the pallet 2 can rotate stably around the first mounting rod 121, and greatly enhancing the structural rigidity and load-bearing capacity of the pallet 2 in the use state.

[0045] like Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the number of rotating parts 22 is multiple, the number of first abutting parts 25 is multiple, and the multiple rotating parts 22 and the multiple first abutting parts 25 are alternately distributed on the support body 21 along the length direction of the first mounting rod 121.

[0046] In addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the diameter of the opening is smaller than the diameter of the first mounting rod 121, and the first mounting rod 121 can be reversibly opened to enter the shaft hole 203. By adopting the above design, the rotating part 22 can only be separated from the first mounting rod 121 when the user applies external force, ensuring that the tray 2 can rotate stably around the first mounting rod 121 and will not easily become loose.

[0047] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the tray 2 also includes a second abutment portion 26, which protrudes from the side wall of the support body 21 near the mounting portion 12. The mounting portion 12 includes a second mounting rod 123, which is connected to the side wall of the first mounting rod 121 and / or the frame body 11. When the tray 2 is in use, the second mounting rod 123 abuts against the side wall of the second abutment portion 26. Through the cooperation of the second mounting rod 123 and the second abutment portion 26, a support point is provided for the tray 2 in use. The side wall of the second abutment portion 26 abuts against the second mounting rod 123, which can, on the one hand, share the torque and load borne by the main bearing of the first mounting rod 121 to a certain extent, and on the other hand, better assist the support body 21 in maintaining a horizontal arrangement, ensuring that the tableware on the tray 2 can be stored stably.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the second mounting rod 123 is disposed along the height direction on the side of the first mounting rod 121 near the tray 2. This facilitates the first mounting rod 121 to be mounted on the frame body 11 via the second mounting rod 123, and at the same time helps to reduce the thickness of the second abutment portion 26.

[0049] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the tray 2 also includes a second limiting part 27, which protrudes from the support body 21 on the side near the mounting part 12. The second limiting part 27 has a locking position. The mounting part 12 also includes a limiting rod 124, which is connected to the first mounting rod 121 and / or the side wall of the frame body 11. When the tray 2 is in the storage state, the limiting rod 124 is engaged in the locking position. When the tray 2 is in the storage state, the limiting member 122 is away from the locking position. By providing the limiting rod 124 and the second limiting part 27 on the mounting part 12 and the second limiting part 27 respectively, when the tray 2 is flipped to the storage state, the limiting rod 124 can engage with the locking position on the second limiting part 27 to form a limiting effect, so that the tray 2 can stably remain vertical.

[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the bottom wall of the spoon placement area 201 is provided with a plurality of placement holes 204 for inserting a spoon, the placement holes 204 are connected to the receiving cavity 101, and the two opposite side walls of the placement holes 204 are respectively provided with limiting protrusions 211, which are used to abut against the spoon head to keep the spoon vertically arranged. By adopting the above structure, using a plurality of placement holes 204 for independently inserting a single spoon, the spoons can be kept separated, allowing each spoon to be fully exposed and avoiding obstruction. At the same time, the inner wall of the placement hole 204 is provided with limiting protrusions 211. When the spoon is inserted upside down into the placement hole 204, the limiting protrusions 211 will abut against the spoon head to form a limiting effect, so that the spoon can be better kept vertical, and its outer surface can be more fully sprayed and cleaned, avoiding dead corners and ensuring cleaning effect.

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the top of the tray 2 is recessed to form a spoon placement area 201 and a chopsticks placement area 202, and the accommodating depth of the spoon placement area 201 is greater than the accommodating depth of the chopsticks placement area 202. By adopting the above structure, the storage space of the tray 2 can be made more reasonable, and the spoon head can be prevented from touching the bottom wall or inner wall of the basket frame 1 of the upper bowl basket assembly when the spoon is inserted upside down into the placement hole 204.

[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the chopsticks placement area 202 and the spoon placement area 201 are axially separated along the rotation axis of the tray 2. By optimizing the layout of the chopsticks placement area 202 and the spoon placement area 201, the width of the tray 2 can better adapt to the distance between the upper and lower dish racks, so that when the tray 2 is rotated to the storage state, it can be arranged vertically and close to the inner wall of the dishwasher's inner tub.

[0053] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: at least two rows of limiting rows 212 are provided at intervals in the chopstick placement area 202, all limiting rows 212 are arranged in parallel, and at least two limiting grooves 205 are provided on the limiting rows 212 along their length direction, with each limiting groove 205 accommodating a portion of one chopstick. By adopting the above structure, the parallel arrangement of the limiting rows 212 naturally forms a hollow spoon placement area 201, which not only supports the chopsticks well, but also allows water on the chopsticks to drip down into the wastewater collection area of ​​the dishwasher through the hollow structure. In addition, the limiting grooves 205 on the at least two rows of limiting rows 212 can limit the chopsticks, ensuring that each chopstick remains parallel and separate and is not prone to displacement, so that the outer surface of the chopsticks can be more thoroughly sprayed and cleaned.

[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the limiting row 212 is a wavy support strip, and a limiting groove 205 is formed at the trough of the wavy support strip. This structure facilitates the placement of chopsticks and improves the cleaning effect of chopsticks.

[0055] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the limiting groove 205 is arranged in an inverted triangular shape.

[0056] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines that all the limiting rows 212 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the rotation axis of the tray 2. Therefore, when chopsticks are placed on the limiting groove 205, the sidewalls of the chopsticks can remain inclined relative to the horizontal plane, allowing water droplets on the chopsticks to slide more easily down into the wastewater collection area of ​​the dishwasher.

[0057] The second aspect of the application provides a dishwasher.

[0058] This embodiment discloses a dishwasher, including: an inner tub; and the aforementioned dish rack assembly, the dish rack assembly being disposed within the inner tub. The dishwasher provided in the second aspect of this application, by employing any of the aforementioned dish rack assemblies, allows the tray 2 to be rotatably mounted on the basket frame 1 and to have both storage and use states. In the use state, the tray 2 rotates horizontally to directly above the receiving cavity 101 of the frame body 11, forming a stable placement platform for placing spoons and chopsticks, thereby fully utilizing the space between the upper and lower dish racks and better meeting the user's need to increase tableware placement. During non-use periods, the user can easily rotate the tray 2 to the storage state, causing the tray 2 to be distributed along its height direction close to the inner wall of the dishwasher's inner tub, providing convenience for placing tableware within the frame body 11.

[0059] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0060] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
