Blade and pump impeller assembly for a dishwasher
A dishwasher comprising a chassis, a tub supported by the chassis and at least partially defining a treating chamber, and a pump that circulates wash liquid in the treating chamber. The pump has an impeller that has a cover, a base with an axis of rotation, and at least one fin protruding from the base. The impeller also has a cap removably coupled to the impeller and at least one blade integrally formed with the cap.
Lint processing fluid pump for a laundry appliance
A lint removal system for a laundry appliance includes a lint washing assembly adapted to deliver wet lint to a disposal area. An impeller is disposed within a continuous processing chamber of a pump casing, the impeller operable to deliver a fluid from the disposal area to a drain outlet. A blade assembly is disposed within the continuous processing chamber, the blade assembly rotationally operable to process the wet lint from the disposal area to define lint particles that are delivered with the fluid to the drain outlet.
Sink
There is provided a sink including: a washing case that is divided into a plurality of spaces including a dishwashing space; a table on which the washing case is mounted; a dish rack that is detachably provided the dishwashing space and having a washing nozzle rotatably installed on a bottom; a sump assembly that is mounted on a bottom surface of the dishwashing space and stores washing water to be supplied to the washing nozzle in a state where the dish rack is mounted on the dishwashing space; and a washing cover that slides horizontally above the dishwashing space to be inserted into the table or to cover an opened upper surface of the dishwashing space, in which the washing cover includes an operation unit for inputting operating command for dishwashing and a display unit for displaying various information.
Filtration assembly with grinding mechanism
A dishwashing appliance with a filtration assembly capable of removing/shredding/pulverizing large dishwashing debris from recirculated dishwashing fluid is provided. The dishwashing appliance may include a tub, a spray system, a recirculation pump, a drainage pump, and a grinding type filtration assembly in fluid communication with the spray system, the recirculation pump, and the drainage pump.

Filter assembly for a dishwasher appliance
A filter assembly includes a first filter member including a first filter panel which defines a central axial aperture and a second filter member including a second filter panel which defines a central axial aperture. The filter assembly further includes a first discharge blade which includes a body and a blade arm, the body defining a central axial bore hole and in contact with the first outer surface of the first filter panel. The filter assembly further includes a second discharge blade which includes a body and a blade arm extending radially from the body, the body defining a central axial bore hole and in contact with the second opposing outer surface of the first filter panel and the first outer surface of the second filter panel. The filter assembly further includes a washer in contact with the second outer surface of the second filter panel, and a shaft.
FILTRATION ASSEMBLY WITH GRINDING MECHANISM
A dishwashing appliance with a filtration assembly capable of removing/shredding/pulverizing large dishwashing debris from recirculated dishwashing fluid is provided. The dishwashing appliance may include a tub, a spray system, a recirculation pump, a drainage pump, and a grinding type filtration assembly in fluid communication with the spray system, the recirculation pump, and the drainage pump.
BLADE AND PUMP IMPELLER ASSEMBLY FOR A DISHWASHER
A dishwasher comprising a chassis, a tub supported by the chassis and at least partially defining a treating chamber, and a pump that circulates wash liquid in the treating chamber. The pump has an impeller that has a cover, a base with an axis of rotation, and at least one fin protruding from the base. The impeller also has a cap removably coupled to the impeller and at least one blade integrally formed with the cap.
Convertible dishwasher
A dishwasher includes a filtration system that can be configured in a chopping or filtration only arrangement. A check valve cover attached to an accumulator is inserted into a main intake of a sump and divides the main intake into a fluid recirculation chamber in communication with a recirculation intake port, and a separate fluid draining chamber in communication with a drain port. When a drain pump is actuated, fluid is pulled from the accumulator through the drain port until pressure within the fluid draining chamber drops below the pressure of the sump and a check valve in the check valve cover is forced open, allowing fluid to be channeled out of the fluid recirculation chamber into the fluid draining chamber. Optionally, a fine filter system can replace the convertible filtration system, whereby the main intake is in fluid communication with both the recirculation intake port and the drain port.
Soil chopping system for a dishwasher
A dishwasher with a tub at least partially defining a treating chamber, a liquid spraying system supplying a spray of liquid to the treating chamber, a liquid recirculation system defining a recirculation flow path, and a liquid filtering system having a rotating filter. A chopping system is included to macerate foreign objects within the recirculation flow path and includes a blade mounted to the rotating filter.
