Flexible cutlery basket located at the top of dishwashers and moved up and down by sliding a button at a single point

Abstract

The present invention relates to a basket system that allows spoons, forks and knives of different thicknesses and, if necessary, cups and glasses of similar sizes to be easily arranged by means of a single independent basket button (2) and an adjustable separator (4) that rotates from the middle point. The innovative basket system, which is the subject of the invention, is characterized by being manufactured entirely from thermoplastic material that provides durability and lightness, and by being able to attach basket carrier reels without requiring an additional reel carrier bracket.

Description

Title of Invention: FLEXIBLE CUTLERY BASKET LOCATED AT THE TOP OF DISHWASHERS AND MOVED UP AND DOWN BY SLIDING A BUTTON AT A SINGLE POINTTechnical Field of the Invention

[0001] This invention is suitable for dishwashers in the white goods sector and can also be used in other systems suitable for installation where the same structure is required in different sectors.Field of Invention

[0002] The fact that the basket system used in the white goods sector is not adjustable reduces the efficiency of the area used. In addition, due to the metal and similar parts used in known systems, it causes rust and corrosion problems over time. By means of the system of the present invention, the maximum efficiency of the area inside the basket will be provided with products of different shapes and by means of its structure produced entirely from thermoplastic raw materials without a carrier metal skeleton, rust and corrosion formation will be prevented.State of the Art

[0003] In general, an additional reel carrier bracket is used for basket carrier systems in systems used in dishwashers. The present invention is characterized by having an adjustment system without the need for an additional metal part, unlike the basket systems used in the state of the art. It is also characterized by the ease of use and advantage of the mechanical movement of the basket rack connections (6) that rotate from a single point with an easy-to-use and ergonomic independent basket button (2) located inside.Disclosure of Invention

[0004] Increasing competition in the global market is causing manufacturing companies to face significant challenges. To be successful, these companies need to focus on reducing production costs, increasing their innovative aspects and optimising their processes. This is a common goal for manufacturing businesses in almost every sector.

[0005] Said basket system generally consists of basket body (1), basket button (2), basket reel (3), basket separator (4), basket pin (5), basket rack connections (6), basket fixed rack (7) and basket movable rack (8).Brief Description of Figures

[0011] The present invention allows the user to change the angle / po sition of the two movable racks (8) located on the right and left of the fixed rack (7) in the middle of the basket body (1) in a parallel manner, up and down, with a single button, by means of the basket rack connections (6) which are connected to the fixed basket rack (7) in the middle, by moving the basket button (2) back and forth according to the user's needs, without damaging the products inside the movable rack (8) in any way. The basket button (2) allows the movable rack (8) to move in a parallel manner in the channel shaped in accordance with the up and down movement directions of the basket pins (5) located in the lower section with the back and forth movement of the user and allows it to move in a straight manner without distorting its angle.

[0012] It is characterized in that in this way, it allows for efficient use of products such as forks, spoons, knives, and larger products such as cups, when desired. By moving the mechanism horizontally back and forth, an angular movement is initiated, and the up and down movement of the basket is provided.

[0013] The innovative basket system, which is the subject of the present invention, is designed as a durable, lightweight, easy-to-use and aesthetically pleasing product, and will offer an ideal solution by means of the usage advantages it provides in dishwashers. The fact that no metal parts will be used in the system will make the system lighter and more durable and will prevent rust / corrosion problems that may occur over time.

[0014] The invention also relates to the easy mechanical up and down movement in a channel specially shaped for it by means of an ergonomically shaped and easy-to-use basket button (2) located inside and the pins (5) that the basket has. It provides a wider area with the up and down movement of the rack when necessary.

[0015] It is characterized by the fact that an additional reel carrier bracket is not used for the basket carrier wheels (3) in the system, the brackets of the rail reels are a part of thebody, the wheel shafts come out of the body itself and thus have a more solid, rigid and aesthetic appearance.

[0016] The basket buttons (2) and adjustable basket separators (4) in the system will attract the attention and interest of the users by being produced in a different colour from the basket body (1). In this way, the system will be easier and more enjoyable to use, and it will give the system a more modem and stylish appearance. The invention is characterized by the fact that it keeps all the products on them stable in both positions and does not pose a risk of falling even if forks, spoons, knives, cups and all products of similar dimensions placed in the drawer are in POSITION 1 ([Fig.3]) or POSITION 2 ([Fig.4]), while the device is operating.

[0017] The system is characterized by being an environmentally friendly product with movable internal mechanism areas made entirely of thermoplastic polymer without any metal parts and without any risk of rusting.

[0018] The wheel shaft in the system does not contain any metal parts and moves by being directly attached to the body without a separate bracket. In addition, in the system, the basket can be moved linearly in the middle with the help of a button and the selfhinged side baskets can be moved up and down (both lowering and lifting) with a single button to take higher materials.

[0019] The bearing at the middle point has a separator that can be moved by the user when needed, which does not require a reverse area and any core in any mould exit angle in the mould, in order to allow the arrangement of products such as forks, knives, etc. of different thicknesses and shapes It comprises a locking design that allows the movable separators to remain at the top and bottom.

[0020] By means of the design made in the aesthetic and water-repellent upper-lower mesh on the lower and upper surfaces of the system, burr formation is prevented and also, at the point where the lower mesh meets the inner wall of the part, the mesh points are reduced towards the junction points, preventing the part from collapsing and having a bad appearance from the outside.

[0021] Since no metal is used in the system, rust and related bacteria formation is not possible compared to systems using metal, it has a more hygienic structure and since no metal is used, its total weight will be lower, and it will make it easier for the basket to move back and forth.
