A dishwasher with a tub defining a treating chamber having an access opening. A closure selectively closes the access opening and a base supports the tub. The base can include a set of spaced panels and a set of spaced beams connecting the set of panels. The base can be formed by inserting the set of spaced beams within the set of spaced panels.

A dishwasher appliance including at least one rack assembly. At least two tub mounts spaced apart from each other along the lateral direction. Each tub mount may include a base attached to the tub and at least one fixed disc connected to the base. The dishwasher further includes a pair of slide rails, one each attached to one of the opposing sides of the at least one rack assembly and in receipt of at least one of the fixed discs.

A rack mounting assembly for supporting an upper rack assembly within a tub of a dishwasher appliance is provided. The tub defines an alignment slot and a screw hole. The rack mounting assembly includes a mounting body defining a mounting hole and a protruding member configured for engaging the alignment slot of the tub when the mounting body is properly aligned. A retention feature, such as one or more flexible arms, extends from the protruding member and toward the tub to hold the mounting body in place until a screw may be passed through the mounting hole and into the screw hole to secure the mounting body to the tub.

A dishwasher, in particular a household dishwasher, includes a washing compartment having a front access opening which is surrounded by a front frame. The front frame is open on a floor side and has lateral frame strips. A base support is arranged on the floor side and has bearing elements for support of the lateral frame strips. Each of the lateral frame strips of the front frame includes at least one hook element which encompasses the associated bearing element of the base support.

An appliance height-adjustment mechanism includes a support block having a plurality of supporting faces, a plurality of height-adjustment surfaces defined by at least a portion of the supporting faces of the support block, each height-adjustment surface being further defined by a lateral spacing flange extending perpendicularly from each height-adjustment surface and a plurality of support surfaces defined by at least a portion of the plurality of supporting faces, wherein each support surface corresponds to a cooperating height-adjustment surface of the plurality of height-adjustment surfaces, wherein the support block includes a plurality of support positions, and wherein each of the plurality of support positions is defined by one of the support surfaces being a respective base of the support block and the corresponding height-adjustment surface defining a dedicated appliance height above the respective base.

A dishwasher includes an additional function module that is disposed at and fixed to a front upper frame reinforcing the upper side of an open front surface of a tub, without a fixing frame exclusive for the function module, thereby ensuring a simple structure and a reduction in manufacturing costs. A mutual coupling structure is formed between the front upper frame and a front side frame reinforcing the sides of the open front surface of the tub, to readily determine the positions of the front upper frame and the front side frame, thereby ensuring a simple manufacturing process.

A connection structure used with a dishwasher is provided. The connection structure has a base, an outer plate located at an outside of the base at an interval, and a top support mechanism connected to the outside of the base. The top support mechanism has one or more top support tubes sequentially stacked in a direction from the base to the outer plate. Each top support tube has first, second, third, and fourth top support plates, each having elastic recovery property. An opening direction of a first spacing groove formed by the first and second support plates and an opening direction of a second spacing groove formed by the third and fourth support plates are opposite to each other.

Support structures for dishwashers are disclosed. An example dishwasher for treating dishes according to a cycle of operation includes a tub defining a treating chamber with an opening, a frame coupled to and structurally supporting at least a portion of the tub, a dish rack mount coupled to the frame, and a dish rack coupled to the dish rack mount, wherein the weight of the dish rack is substantially borne by the frame.

A dishwasher includes a wash container for receiving items to be washed and a front frame which has an open bottom and an upper frame run and is disposed in surrounding relationship to a front loading opening of the wash container. The front frame has a cross-sectional profile and is provided with at least one height stop that projects beyond the cross-sectional profile in height and is configured as a tab in the upper frame run.
