A dishwasher, in particular household dishwasher, includes a dishwasher cavity for receiving an item to be washed, a rotatable fan wheel arranged in the dishwasher cavity and configured to draw in air and to blow out the air, and a motor operably connected to the fan wheel and operating at a rotational speed which is variable over time.

Provided is a home appliance including: a main body having a cavity; a door rotatably coupled to a front side of the main body to open and close the cavity; a holder moveably mounted to the door; a decorative plate mounted to the holder to be disposed on a front surface of the door; and a wire connected to the holder and the main body to vary a tension depending rotation of the door, and configured to move the holder by the tension.

A dishwasher cavity for a household dishwasher includes a U-shaped dishwasher cavity casing, a U-shaped frame connected to the dishwasher cavity casing and supporting the dishwasher cavity casing, and a hinge plate provided on the frame. The frame includes a receiving portion. The hinge plate includes a depth positioning portion, which is received in a form-fit manner in the receiving portion of the frame to fix the hinge plate to the frame in a depth direction of the dishwasher cavity.

A dishwasher including a cabinet with a treating chamber having an open face, which is selectively closed by a door assembly. The door assembly has an outer door spaced from an inner door to define an interior space between the outer and inner doors. A stiffener is located between the inner and outer doors.

An automated door assembly for a dishwasher appliance includes a door frame pivotally mounted to the cabinet. An extension arm is mounted to and extends away from the door frame at approximately 90 degrees. A motor is mounted to the cabinet and is coupled to a distal end of the extension arm by a cable. The motor is selectively rotated to wind and unwind the cable to move the door frame between the closed position and the open position. A latch assembly engages a striker mounted on the door frame to initiate the opening and closing process.

An appliance hinge includes a control link subassembly operably connected between a base and a door mounting arm. The control link subassembly includes a control link with a first end pivotally connected to the door mounting arm and a second end spaced from the first end. The control link subassembly also includes a spring-arm including an outer end pivotally connected to the second end of the control link and an inner end engaged with the base and adapted for both pivoting and sliding movement relative to the base. The control link subassembly also includes a spring engaged with the spring-arm and exerting a biasing force on the spring-arm that urges said spring-arm toward its extended position. The spring-arm selectively moveable toward a retracted position. The hinge assembly further includes a link controller connected to the base. The spring biases the control link into abutment with the link controller.

A dishwasher having a tub and spray arm assembly for a dishwasher having a spray arm assembly for spraying wash liquid in the tub. The spray arm assembly has spray arm inlet, a bearing assembly with a bearing body that defines a through passage with a bearing inlet and a bearing outlet fluidly coupled to the spray arm inlet. The spray arm assembly also has a liquid supply conduit with a supply outlet fluidly coupled to the bearing inlet, a seal positioned between the bearing body and the liquid supply conduit; and a deflector provided within the supply outlet to effectively divide the supply outlet into at least two portions. At least one of the two portions faces upstream and defining an effective cross-sectional area confronting the bearing inlet that is less than or equal to the cross-sectional area of the bearing inlet. The deflector is also aligned with the bearing inlet and defines a turn in the supply outlet for directing liquid into the bearing inlet.

The present invention relates to an information light system to inform users about operating status of an electronic household appliance, especially a dishwasher, without opening a door of the household appliance, and a dishwasher comprising the same. The information light system (1) is characterized by comprising an electronic board (3) which has a lighting element (3a) thereon and adapted to communicate with a control unit of the dishwasher; a chamber (2) which comprises a first wall (2a) and two second walls (2c), wherein the chamber (2) is in the form of a housing suitable for placing the electronic board (3) and enables light to be reflected onto a second surface which is opposite to the first surface; a cover (2b) which covers at least partially the chamber (2) and comprises a reflecting area (2f) which is light-transparent, has a form focusing the light emitted from the lighting element (3a), and is located such that light emitted from the lighting element (3a) can reach, wherein a light focusing element is located on the reflecting area; a connector (4) for energising the electronic board (3) and which is located at the chamber (2); and a flap (5) which is located on the first wall (2a) and at an outer surface of the first fall (2a) not facing the chamber (2) so as to be at the same side with the connector (4), and is connected from a side to the chamber (2) in an inclined manner in such a way that it can direct the liquid coming to the chamber (2) away from the first wall (2a).

A hinge (1) for connecting a door to a household appliance compartment is described, comprising a fastening bracket (2) adapted to be fastened to the compartment of said household appliance, a movable support (3) to rotatably constrain said door to said fastening bracket (2), an activating arm (5) coupled to said fastening bracket (2), movement means (6) adapted to move said activating arm (5), said activating arm (5) comprising a first end portion (5a) adapted to be constrained to said door, and a second end portion (5b) fitted to be coupled to said movement means (6) to move said activating arm (5) between an open position (P2) of the door and a closed position (P1) of the door, said movement means (6) comprising an electric motor (10) and reversible connecting means (9) to couple and decouple selectively said electric motor (10) and said second end portion (5b), said hinge (1) being configured so that when said electric motor (10) is coupled to said second end portion (5b), the electric motor (10) causes the movement of the activating arm (5), whereas when said electric motor (10) is decoupled from said second end portion (5b), the movement of the first end portion (5a) occurs independently of the electric motor (10) to allow a user to freely move the door.

A dish treating appliance for treating dishes including a tub at least partially defining a treating chamber having an access opening and a door moveable between opened and closed positions to selectively open and close the access opening that includes a front panel and a handle assembly mounted to the front door panel.
