A dishwasher includes a main body, a tub provided inside the main body and configured to form a washing chamber, a machine room formed under the tub, a drain hose configured to discharge washing water stored in the washing chamber, and a hose fixer disposed on a side surface of the tub and configured to fix at least a part of the drain hose, and the drain hose further includes a first coupler coupled to one side of the machine room and a second coupler coupled to the hose fixer, and the first coupler includes an insertion part provided to extend in a longitudinal direction of the first coupler to be inserted to the one side of the machine room to couple the first coupler to the one side of the machine room.
MINUTE BUBBLE GENERATOR, HOME APPLIANCE PROVIDED WITH MINUTE BUBBLE GENERATOR, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING MINUTE BUBBLE GENERATOR
A minute bubble generator includes a flow path member including a flow path allowing a liquid to pass therethrough; and a colliding part provided in the flow path and generating minute bubbles in the liquid passing through the flow path by locally reducing a cross sectional area of the flow path. The colliding part is formed integrally with the flow path member and is provided closer to an upstream end or a downstream end relative to a lengthwise center of the flow path.
Learning dispensing system for water inlet hose
A retrofit auxiliary device for distributing cleaning resources to a household cleaning appliance having a treating chamber is described wherein the device can connect to various household cleaning appliances of different makes and models and can learn the flow of water and detergent during various stages of operation and then perform the dispensing itself.
Self-cleaning filtration system for a dishwasher
A dishwasher filtration system includes a coarse filter disposed in a tub of a dishwasher, the coarse filter configured to filter water directed to a main wash pump. The system also includes a soil accumulation chamber configured to receive a portion of water from the main wash pump. The system further includes a fine filter covering an opening of the soil accumulation chamber, the fine filter configured to filter the portion of water received inside the soil accumulation chamber. The system also includes a backwash nozzle configured to supply water to the fine filter. In addition, the system may include a deflector that deflects the water from the backwash nozzle to the fine filter.
WASH ARM ASSEMBLY
A wash arm assembly may include wash arm having a tubular connection portion and a tubular receiving means for receiving the tubular connection portion. The tubular connection portion may include a first guiding surface and a second guiding surface, and the tubular receiving means may include a third guiding surface and a fourth guiding surface. The first guiding surface may be aligned to the third guiding surface and the second guiding surface may be aligned to the fourth guiding surface when the tubular connection portion is inserted in the tubular receiving means. The first, second, third and fourth guiding surfaces may be arranged to guide the tubular connection portion and the tubular receiving means into alignment with each other upon rotation of the wash arm. A dishwasher including the wash arm assembly may also be provided.
CONDUIT DOCKING ASSEMBLY FOR A DISHWASHER APPLIANCE
An adjustable conduit and docking assembly for use in a dishwasher appliance is provided. The adjustable conduit and docking assembly includes a conduit configured for receiving a docking station at different heights so as to accommodate a height adjustment of a rack assembly to which the conduit is attached.
