A dishwasher comprising: a first body; and a second body which includes a rack to hold an object to be washed, a spray nozzle to spray water onto the object, and a washing channel connectable to the spray nozzle, where the second body is coupleable to or coupleable from a top surface of the first body. The first body includes a washing pump to supply water, a supply channel to supply the water to the washing channel, a drain port to receive the water from the second body, and an upper housing which is coupleable to an opening formed at an upper surface of an external support such that so that while the upper housing is coupled to the opening the first body is positioned at a lower end of the upper surface of the external support.

A dishwasher minimizes the flow of wash water, being scattered in a washing stage or a rinsing stage, into an airflow guide through a discharge opening and the remaining wash water in the airflow guide, and prevents the reverse inflow of wash water having passed through the airflow guide to a dry air supply part.

A household dishwasher includes a washing container receiving a dishwasher load, a spray arm for applying washing liquor and/or fresh water to the dishwasher load, a drive system for actively driving the spray arm, and an overload protection mechanism configured to move autonomously from a coupling position, in which power is transmitted between the drive system and the spray arm, into a decoupling position, in which the power transmission between the drive system and the spray arm is interrupted, when the spray arm becomes blocked.

A household dishwasher includes a washing tub, a main body, a door portion configured to open and close an upper surface of the washing tub, a first washing water spray nozzle configured to spray washing water supplied from a door portion water supply pipe to an inside of the washing tub, a second washing water spray nozzle configured to spray the washing water to the inside of the washing tub, a steam generator configured to supply steam to the inside of the washing tub, an ultrasonic vibration part configured to apply ultrasonic vibration to the washing water inside the washing tub such that an ultrasonic washing is performed, and a controller configured to receive a washing command signal of a user and control internal components of the household dishwasher.

A dishwasher (100) for washing dirty articles comprising: a rotating rack (1) configured to rotate counter-clockwise at a user-defined speed of 1 round per minute or 1/2 round per minute; a spray system (104) configured to dispense a jet stream of high speed water using a plurality of nozzles (106a-106n) from the bottom as well as top of the dirty articles placed on the rotating rack (1); a washing chamber (1b) that may be designed to enable washing of the dirty articles placed upon the rotating rack (1) using the spray system (104), wherein the washing chamber (1b) uses recirculating water; and a rinsing chamber (1c) that may be designed to rinse the washed articles with clean water supplied directly from a house water source; wherein a partition wall (29) between the washing chamber (1b) and the rinsing chamber (1c) prevents splash of water used in the respective chamber.

Dishwashing machine comprising: a controller; a spray arm assembly comprising a spray arm having one or more spray holes for spraying a washing load with water, and a pipe for delivering water to the spray arm; a pump for pumping water through the pipe and to the spray arm; the pipe being constructed and arranged to at least partially restrict flow of water from the pump to at least a part of the spray arm dependent on spray arm orientation relative to the pipe, a power consumption of the pump thereby being dependent at least in part on the spray arm orientation relative to the pipe; and the controller being configured to monitor the power consumption of the pump in order to determine rotational information of the spray arm.
