Description

[0001] The invention relates to a cutlery drawer for a dishwasher, comprising a base support formed from wire material to form a circumferential, rectangular frame, which base support comprises at least one front-side wire section, one rear-side wire section, one left-side wire section and / or one right-side wire section, a left-side guide device fastened to the base support and designed for drawer-like, linearly adjustable mounting of the cutlery drawer on a left-side inner wall of a dishwasher, a right-side guide device fastened to the base support opposite the left-side guide device and designed for drawer-like, linearly adjustable mounting of the cutlery drawer on a right-side inner wall of a dishwasher, and at least one cutlery carrier insert mounted on the base support.The invention also relates to an associated design cover and dishwasher.

[0002] DE 10 2008 062 761 B3 describes a cutlery drawer for a dishwasher, comprising a frame which is mounted so as to be extendable in a washing container and a plurality of inserts which are arranged so as to be movable on the frame and on which items of crockery to be washed, in particular cutlery, can be placed, wherein at least one of the inserts is arranged so as to be horizontally displaceable on the frame, and at least one further insert is arranged so as to be vertically displaceable on the frame. These inserts are suspended at their outer ends by means of two hooks from a front and rear cross strut of the frame. The inner ends of the inserts are each placed on a front and a rear bracket of the frame. The brackets are fastened to the cross struts. By means of hooks and support brackets, the two lateral inserts are arranged so as to be horizontally displaceable on the frame.

[0003] The object of the invention is to provide a cutlery drawer, a design cover for a cutlery drawer and / or a dishwasher which can be adapted in a particularly flexible manner to the needs of a manufacturer and / or user.

[0004] The problem is solved by a cutlery drawer for a dishwasher, comprising: - a base support formed from wire material to form a circumferential, rectangular frame, which comprises at least one front-side wire section, one rear-side wire section, one left-side wire section and / or one right-side wire section, - a left-side guide device designed for drawer-like, linearly adjustable mounting of the cutlery drawer on a left-side inner wall of a dishwasher, - a right-side guide device arranged opposite the left-side guide device, which is designed for drawer-like, linearly adjustable mounting of the cutlery drawer on a right-side inner wall of a dishwasher, and - at least one cutlery holder insert mounted on the base support, wherein the cutlery drawer - has at least one design cover which is separate from the cutlery carrier insert and which is fastened to the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and / or the right-hand wire section of the base carrier in such a way that the design cover conceals the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and / or the right-hand wire section of the base carrier.

[0005] A cutlery drawer is used as a third storage device in addition to a lower dish basket and an upper dish basket in a dishwasher, in particular in a household dishwasher. The lower dish basket is preferably designed to hold large items of crockery, such as plates, bowls, and pots. The upper dish basket is preferably designed to hold smaller items of crockery, such as glasses, cups, and saucers. The additional cutlery drawer, on the other hand, is preferably used to hold cutlery, such as knives, forks, and spoons. In its installed position, the cutlery drawer is preferably mounted in the dishwasher in a drawer-like manner and can be pulled out. The cutlery drawer can preferably be mounted above the upper dish basket in the dishwasher.

[0006] The cutlery drawer has a base support, which is typically made from a wire material. The wire material, which is assembled to form a circumferential, rectangular frame, can be a metallic wire, as is common practice. This metallic wire can be coated, painted, or covered with a plastic sheath. Such a coating can protect the metallic wire in the wash chamber of a dishwasher from water and wash liquor containing cleaning substances, and in particular protect it against corrosion. The base support can be composed of multiple wire sections. In the case of multiple metallic wire sections, these can be bent and / or welded together to form the base support.

[0007] Although it is common practice to use metallic wire material to form the base support, it may also be possible for the wire material to be made of a plastic material, for example.

[0008] The left-hand guide device can be attached either to the base support or to the design cover. In the same way, the right-hand guide device can be attached either to the base support or to the design cover. The left-hand guide device attached to the base support or the design cover and the right-hand guide device can, for example, each have a mounting support which is attached to the base support or the design cover and on which rollers are rotatably mounted. When the cutlery drawer is mounted in the dishwasher's wash cabinet, the rollers are guided on rails of a dishwasher's wash tub, in particular telescopically extendable rails of the dishwasher's wash tub, and roll along these when the cutlery drawer is pulled out of the wash cabinet.

[0009] At least one cutlery carrier insert is mounted on the base support of the cutlery drawer. The at least one cutlery carrier insert can be attached to the base support or, alternatively, can be mounted on the base support in an adjustable, in particular displaceable, manner. The at least one cutlery carrier insert can be mounted or attached to the base support in a detachable, in particular non-destructive, manner.

[0010] Each cutlery carrier insert can, for example, be manufactured as a plastic injection-molded part. Each cutlery carrier insert can have a grid-like or sieve-like base surface from which, for example, several pins can protrude upwards. The pins can, in particular, be designed to hold individual pieces of cutlery in a favorable position and / or location so that this piece of cutlery can be exposed to washing liquid in a particularly favorable manner during operation of the dishwasher and so that adhering water or washing liquid can drain off particularly favorably during a drying operation. Each cutlery carrier insert can optionally have recesses in the base surface so that even larger pieces of cutlery or cooking utensils, such as ladles, can be accommodated on the cutlery carrier insert.

[0011] In known cutlery drawers, the wire sections of the base support are either completely uncovered or the wire sections are formed by extended wall sections of the cutlery support insert. This has the disadvantage that the extended wall sections of the cutlery support insert, which cover the wire sections of the base support, cannot be removed from the base support, and in particular cannot be replaced by other covering wall sections without also having to replace the cutlery support insert. A separate design cover is therefore not formed integrally with the cutlery support insert, and in particular, is not manufactured in one piece with the cutlery support insert.

[0012] To overcome this disadvantage, by providing at least one design cover separate from the cutlery carrier insert, which is fastened to the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and / or the right-hand wire section of the base support in such a way that the design cover conceals the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and / or the right-hand wire section of the base support, a cutlery drawer, a design cover for a cutlery drawer and / or a dishwasher is advantageously created which can be adapted in a particularly flexible manner to the needs of a manufacturer and / or user.

[0013] This advantageous technical solution enables, for example, a manufacturer to create different designs of cutlery drawers, whereby the same base support and the same cutlery support inserts can be used in all design variants of cutlery drawers.

[0014] This technical solution can also be advantageous in the case of an original equipment manufacturer (OEM company), because different types of cutlery drawers can be supplied to different appliance manufacturers, which are technically based on identical base supports and cutlery holder inserts, but can differ in appearance, particularly in terms of brand-related diversity, due to individually designed design covers.

[0015] Another advantage is that dishwasher users can easily replace the separate design covers, for example, in case of damage to an existing design cover or for customization purposes by replacing existing design covers with a different design cover. A separate design cover can therefore also be purchased separately as a spare part or accessory and attached to the cutlery drawer.

[0016] The function of a separate design cover concealing the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and / or the right-hand wire section of the base support can serve to influence the visual appearance of the cutlery drawer. For example, concealing the wire section with a separate design cover also has the technical advantage over an unclad wire section in that the wire sections concealed by the separate design covers are also protected from excessive corrosive contact with the dishwashing liquid, and the service life of the base support can therefore be extended. The separate design covers can also serve other technical functions, such as serving as a handle for pulling out and / or pushing in the cutlery drawer when it is mounted on a pull-out tray of a dishwasher.

[0017] The design cover can be designed as a one-piece design frame following the frame-shaped base support, which covers the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-side wire section and the right-side wire section.

[0018] In a less complex embodiment, a single, separate design cover can be provided that covers, i.e., conceals, the entire frame of the base support. Such a design cover is accordingly also frame-like and follows the contours of the frame of the base support over the entire circumference of the base support. The frame-shaped, separate design cover leaves a central window cutout free, through which the separate cutlery holder insert is accessible.

[0019] The design cover can be designed as a partial frame which follows the frame-shaped base support only in a partial section of the frame-shaped base support.

[0020] In the embodiment as a partial frame, the at least one design cover can form a cutlery drawer in which certain wire sections are deliberately left free. Alternatively, several partial frames of design covers can be mounted side by side to form a fully circumferential design frame. A fully circumferential design frame formed from several partial frames of design covers can be designed differently in certain sections.

[0021] The cutlery drawer can accordingly have at least one first design cover which is designed as a first partial frame which follows the frame-shaped base support in a first partial section of the frame-shaped base support, and the cutlery drawer can have at least one second design cover which is separate from the first design cover and which is designed as a second partial frame which complements the first partial frame and follows the frame-shaped base support in a second partial section of the frame-shaped base support which is different from the first partial section.

[0022] The design cover can be designed as a partial frame that covers three wire sections on three sides of the cutlery drawer from the group of wire sections comprising the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-side wire section, and the right-side wire section. Such a design cover can accordingly have a U-shaped basic configuration. In a specific embodiment, such a design cover can, for example, extend over the entire length of the left-side wire section and have two legs running perpendicular thereto at the ends, which extend over only a left-side section of the front wire section and the rear wire section.In the same way, a further design cover can, for example, extend over the entire length of the right-hand wire section and have two legs running perpendicularly thereto at the ends, which extend over only a right-hand section of the front wire section and the rear wire section. In a modified embodiment, a design cover can, for example, extend over the entire length of the front wire section and have two legs running perpendicularly thereto at the ends, which extend over only a left-hand section of the left-hand wire section and a right-hand section of the right-hand wire section.In the same way, a further design cover can, for example, extend over the entire length of the rear wire section and have two legs running perpendicular thereto at the ends, which extend over only a left-hand section of the left-hand wire section and a right-hand section of the right-hand wire section.

[0023] The design cover can thus be designed as a partial frame which is guided along two adjacent corner sections of the frame-shaped base support.

[0024] The design cover may be formed as a partial frame which covers two wire sections of two directly adjoining sides of the cutlery drawer from the group of wire sections comprising the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-side wire section and the right-side wire section.

[0025] The design cover can thus be designed as a partial frame that runs along a corner section of the frame-shaped base support. For example, a total of four design corner covers can be provided. Such design corner covers can differ from other design covers on the long sides of the frame-shaped base support.

[0026] The design cover can comprise fastening means which are designed and arranged for fastening the design cover only to one wire section from the group of wire sections comprising the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and the right-hand wire section, wherein a respective other wire section from the group of wire sections comprising the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section and the right-hand wire section is only approximately sheathed by the design cover, leaving a gap to this other wire section, and is not connected to it.

[0027] A respective design cover can thus be attached to a wire section and have a projecting design cover section which merely covers another wire section, in particular optically covers it, without the projecting design cover section being additionally attached to this covering wire section.

[0028] The design cover may be formed as a partial frame which covers an individual wire section of the cutlery drawer from the group of wire sections comprising the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-side wire section and the right-side wire section, only along a partial wire section of the individual wire section.

[0029] The design cover, which covers only a partial wire section of the individual wire section, can be designed as a handle to complement the function. The corresponding wire section can thus be the front wire section of the base support.

[0030] The base support may have, at its front wire portion, its rear wire portion, its left-side wire portion and / or its right-side wire portion, a main wire having a larger wire diameter and may have at least one additional sub-wire having a smaller wire diameter than the main wire, wherein the at least one design cover is attached to the main wire.

[0031] The base support may have, at its front wire section, its rear wire section, its left-side wire section and / or its right-side wire section, a main wire having a larger wire diameter and at least one additional secondary wire having a smaller wire diameter than the main wire, wherein the at least one design cover is attached to the secondary wire.

[0032] The at least one design cover may have at least one latching means configured to latch the design cover onto the front wire section, the rear wire section, the left-hand wire section, and / or the right-hand wire section of the base support.

[0033] The locking means forms the fastening means with which the design cover is attached to the base support. The locking means can comprise one or more locking claws, wherein each locking claw can have two opposing locking fingers, which, when the design cover is locked onto an associated wire section of the base support, positively engage this wire section. The locking means can also be referred to as a clip. This forms a type of clamp or bracket.

[0034] The at least one locking means can be designed for non-destructively releasably locking the design cover to the front-side wire section, the rear-side wire section, the left-side wire section and / or the right-side wire section of the base support.

[0035] The at least one design cover can have a recess which is designed to expose the left-side guide device of the cutlery drawer or the right-side guide device of the cutlery drawer when the design cover is fastened to the base support.

[0036] This allows a design cover to be guided above the respective left-hand or right-hand guide device without impairing the function of the guide device. Such a design cover can, for example, have a cutout with an open edge at the bottom, which leaves a mounting bracket of the guide device free, so that, for example, rollers projecting outward from the mounting bracket can extend through the open-edged cutout of the design cover to the side walls of a dishwasher's washing tub.

[0037] The at least one design cover can be made of plastic, metal, ceramic or glass.

[0038] The cutlery drawer may have at least one first design cover made of plastic, metal, ceramic or glass, and the cutlery drawer may have at least one second design cover different from the first design cover and made of a material different from the first design cover from the group of materials comprising plastic, metal, ceramic and glass.

[0039] The cutlery drawer can have at least one first design cover having a first shape, and can have at least one second design cover different from the first design cover and having a second shape different from the first shape of the first design cover. The respective shape of the first design cover and / or the second design cover can differ not only in terms of its geometric configuration, i.e. the shape and / or contour, but also, for example, in terms of its surface texture or feel. For example, the first design cover and the second design cover can optionally have a smooth, grooved or otherwise structured surface.

[0040] The cutlery drawer may have at least one first design cover having a first color and may have at least one second design cover different from the first design cover and having a second color different from the first color of the first design cover.

[0041] The problem is also solved by a design cover for a cutlery drawer, which is designed according to the characteristic features of one of the described embodiments of the cutlery drawer. As already mentioned, a separate design cover can also be purchased separately as a spare part or accessory and attached to the cutlery drawer.

[0042] The object is also achieved by a dishwasher having a cutlery drawer according to one of the described embodiments.

[0043] The left-hand guide device fastened to the base support and the right-hand guide device can, for example, each have a mounting support which is fastened to the base support and on which rollers are rotatably mounted, which, when the cutlery drawer is mounted in the washing compartment of the dishwasher, are guided on rails of a washing container of the dishwasher, in particular telescopically extendable rails of the washing container of the dishwasher, and roll on these when the cutlery drawer is pulled out of the washing compartment.

[0044] As already described, the cutlery drawer can be used in a dishwasher as a third receiving device in addition to a lower dish basket and an upper dish basket of the dishwasher, in particular a household dishwasher. The lower dish basket is preferably designed to hold large items of crockery, such as plates, bowls and pots. The upper dish basket is preferably designed to hold smaller items of crockery, such as glasses, cups and saucers. The additional cutlery drawer, on the other hand, is preferably used to hold cutlery, such as knives, forks and spoons. In its installed position, the cutlery drawer is preferably mounted in the dishwasher in a drawer-like manner and can be pulled out. The cutlery drawer can preferably be mounted above the upper dish basket in the dishwasher.

[0045] Specific embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail in the following description with reference to the accompanying figures.
