A selectively deployable drying rack with selectively reconfigurable components is disclosed. The drying rack includes a base and an upper rim. The drying rack further includes linkages to move the upper rim away from and toward the base and a first removable tray and a second removable tray that are configured to fit in the base. The second removable tray may include a utensil compartment with holes, an outer wall, and an inner wall. The upper rim may include a utensil band and/or a wine glass rack. The utensil band may be moveable between a stowed position and an extended position when the utensil band is in use. The wine glass rack may be moveable between a storage position and an upright position when the utensil band is in use. The drying rack may include a stand wire to elevate the base of the drying rack above a surface.

Disclosed is a dishwasher including a tub, a door, a sump, a rack, a spray arm, a water guide including a supply flow-path for movement of the wash water from the sump and a supply port formed in the supply flow-path, a supply unit including a support body for receiving the wash water, a connection pipe extending from the support body to the spray arm, and an spray arm coupler, and a connection member including a coupling body coupled to the water guide and the support body, and a through-hole formed in the coupling body. The supply unit includes a rearwardly protruding insertion portion, and the connection member includes protrusions spaced apart from each other to define an insertion space for the protruding insertion portion, so that the supply unit is coupled to the water guide as the protruding insertion portion is inserted into one of the insertion space.

A dish washing machine having a structure improved to increase washing efficiency is provided. The dish washing machine includes a washing tub for washing dishes, an injection unit to inject washing water into the washing tub, and a deflection unit to move inside the washing tub to deflect the washing water injected from the injection unit toward the dishes. The deflection unit includes a first vane to be linearly movable in a direction in which the washing water is injected and a second vane to interwork with the first vane.

A dishwasher includes a shiftable rack provided with multiple, distinct washing fluid spray arms connected to a common, rack supported manifold. When the rack is shifted to a retracted position within a tub of the dishwasher, the manifold mates with a coupling of a fluid distribution system including a multi-tube feed arrangement configured to selectively distribute washing fluid from a pump assembly to the multiple spray arms.

A washing operation and a drying operation are performed while a basket which is located inside a washing tub and accommodates dishes reciprocates in a vertical direction of a washing tub due to a driving device. The basket reciprocates in order to pass through an injection nozzle which injects washing water and an air nozzle which injects air to perform the washing operation while passing through the injection nozzle and to perform the drying operation while passing through the air nozzle. Through this, a small amount of dishes may be washed and dried in a short time and the dishes may be washed using a small amount of water and energy.

A bracket is provided that may be configured to attach a structure to a wall inside a wash tub of a dishwasher. The bracket may be arranged to be attached to the structure and may include a first protrusion and at least a second protrusion arranged to attach the bracket and the attached structure to the wall by extending through a respective aperture in the wall. A dishwasher and a method of attaching a structure to a wall inside a wash tub for a dishwasher may also be provided.

A dish rack assembly includes a dish rack having spaced wire frame elements at least partially defining a side wall, a height adjuster comprising an arm located on an exterior of the side wall and a retaining clip mounted to the arm and located on an interior of the side wall that can limit the relative movement of the dish rack.

Height-adjusting device for shelves of appliances, in particular for dishwasher racks, comprising: a support (18), a stop element (30) hinged with the support (18) at a bottom end (32) thereof and having a latch (34) at a top end thereof, wherein the stop element (30) pivots about a hinging axis (B) under the action of its own weight between an engaged position and a disengaged position, where the latch (34) is located on opposite sides relative to a vertical plane passing through the hinging axis (B), a stop bracket (38) guided in a vertical direction relative to said support (18), wherein the stop bracket (38) comprises a cam surface (42) having at least one stop seat (44), which can be engaged by said latch (34) when the stop element (30) is in said engaged position, and a guide surface (48) against which said stop element (30) rests in the disengaged position, wherein the stop element (30) has a bottom surface (62) which comes into contact with a bottom bearing surface (64) of the cam surface (42) and causes pivoting of the stop element (30) from its engaged position towards its disengaged position.

A dishwasher includes a storage part in which a washing target is stored. The storage part includes a guide disposed in an edge area, a frame coupled to the guide, and a tray coupled to the frame. The tray includes a locking portion protruding from an edge area thereof and coupled to the frame, and configured to elevate the tray with respect to the frame. The frame includes a slot in which the locking portion is inserted, and a rail protruding toward the slot and forming some area of an outer shape of the slot, and configured to guide the movement of the locking portion and suppress the locking portion from being separated from the slot.

The invention relates to a sliding/pivoting mechanism of a shelf of a piece of furniture or of a domestic appliance for pulling out and raising the shelf from a body of the piece of furniture or of the domestic appliance, which sliding/pivoting mechanism has at least two pivoting arms, which are fastened by means of a first end to at least one of the side walls of the body in such a way that said pivoting arms can be rotated parallel to the plane of the side walls and which are arranged parallel to each other at a distance from each other, wherein at respective second ends of the pivoting arms, a guide rail is fastened in such a way that the guide rail can be pivoted parallel to the plane of the side walls and in such a way that the guide rail can be pivoted from a lower position inside the body to a raised upper position at least partially outside the body, and at least one running rail, which is linearly displacable in the guide rail and to which the shelf is fastened, wherein a damping unit that damps the traveling motion of the shelf in an end position is arranged on the sliding/pivoting mechanism. The invention further relates to a piece of furniture and to a domestic appliance having a sliding/pivoting mechanism and a domestic appliance having a damping unit, which is arranged on the pull-out guide, for damping the shelf in an end position.
