A noise leakage preventing device for a clothes treating apparatus is provided. The device may include a base located at a lower portion of a cabinet and forming a bottom surface of the clothes treating apparatus, and a noise blocking rim attached along a periphery of a lower surface of the base and located between the base and the ground. The noise blocking rim may prevent noise generated from the clothes treating apparatus from being transferred or emitted out the base.

A dish washer includes: a tub defining a washing space, a spray module disposed inside the tub and configured to spray water to the washing space, a sump configured to store water, a washing pump configured to supply the water stored in the sump to the spray module, and an air jet generator disposed below a bottom surface of the tub and configured to receive a portion of the water discharged from the washing pump to generate air bubbles in the water and discharge the water having air bubbles to the washing space. The air jet generator includes an air pulverizing pipe including a first pipe providing a cross-sectional area reducing in a water flowing direction, a second pipe providing a cross-sectional area increasing in the water flowing direction, and an air tab disposed at an upper portion of the second pipe.

Provided is a structure of a sump assembly of a dishwasher. The dishwasher includes a tub forming a washing chamber, and a sump assembly provided at a lower side of the washing chamber and configured to store washing water in the washing chamber, wherein the sump assembly includes a sump housing having a water storage chamber storing the washing water and a sidewall portion forming the water storage chamber, and a heater provided on the sidewall portion to apply heat to the washing water stored in the sump assembly. The heater includes a planar heating element, and the planar heating element provided in a cylindrical shape forms the sidewall portion.

An acoustically insulated machine including a source of noise positioned within a housing, a first insulation member positioned within the housing and including a first porous sound absorbing layer and a first dense layer, and a second insulation member positioned within the housing and including a second porous sound absorbing layer and a second dense layer. The first insulation member being is positioned closer to the internal source of noise than the second insulation member and the first insulation member being spaced apart from the second insulation member such that an air gap is formed between the first insulation member and the second insulation member.

A dishwasher includes a tub in which tableware is stored; a washing nozzle which is installed in the tub and sprays washing water; a washing pump which pumps the washing water to the washing nozzle; a sump in which the washing water is stored; and an air jet generator which is mounted in the tub, and supplies air to the washing water to contain an air bubble; wherein the air jet generator comprises: an air jet nozzle which sprays the washing water containing the air bubble into the tub; a discharge port which discharges the washing water containing the air bubble to the air jet nozzle; and a cap which surrounds at least a portion of the discharge port exposed in the tub.

A standoff feature for an appliance includes a connecting member having a first end and a second end. A first side member extends in a first direction from the first end of the connecting member. A second side member is spaced from the first side member. The second side member extends in the first direction from the second end of the connecting member. A first flange extends from a first side edge of the connecting member. The first side edge extends between the first end and the second end. The first flange extends in a second direction from the connecting member. A second flange extends from a second side edge of the connecting member. The second side edge extends between the first end and the second end and opposes the first side edge. The second flange extends in the second direction from the connecting member.

An acoustically insulated machine including a source of noise positioned within a housing, a first insulation member positioned within the housing and including a first porous sound absorbing layer and a first dense layer, and a second insulation member positioned within the housing and including a second porous sound absorbing layer and a second dense layer. The first insulation member being is positioned closer to the internal source of noise than the second insulation member and the first insulation member being spaced apart from the second insulation member such that an air gap is formed between the first insulation member and the second insulation member.

A household appliance includes a receiving region and an insulation element attached to the receiving region for acoustic and/or thermal insulation of the receiving region. The insulation element is manufactured from a viscoelastic polyurethane foam and pressed against the receiving region in such a manner that the insulation element is sealed off in relation to the receiving region in a fluid-tight manner.

An insulating structure for an appliance includes a trim breaker, a wrapper, and a liner. The wrapper and liner coupled to the trim breaker and at least partially defining a structural cabinet. A barrier is positioned between the liner and the wrapper. The barrier is also coupled to the trim breaker. An inner compressible gasket is proximate the liner, and an outer gasket is proximate the wrapper. The inner gasket and the outer compressible gasket are coupled to the barrier.

A dishwasher having a treating chamber with one or more sprayers through which liquid is recirculated into the treating chamber, whereby the impact of the spray emitted from the sprayers impacts the structure forming the treating chamber to generate noise. Damping material is applied to structure forming the treating chamber to reduce the sound level of the impact exterior of the dishwasher.
