A support for household appliance includes a hydraulic plate which is fixed to the bottom of the household appliance; a sheath, which is fixedly connected with the hydraulic plate; a regulating support, which is arranged in the sheath and is axially movable relative to the sheath; an accommodation chamber, which is formed by the hydraulic plate, the sheath and the regulating support; and a flexible accommodation body, which accommodates a liquid medium and is arranged in the accommodation chamber. The flexible accommodation body extends and retracts to drive the regulating support to axially move in the sheath for leveling under the action of pressure. The hydraulic plate and the sheath can be rapidly, reliably and fixedly connected, the requirements on the strength of connection between the hydraulic plate and the sheath are lowered, and the essential space and height required by the connection are further lowered.

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 household appliance having a plurality of feet with height adjustment mechanisms is provided. Each height adjustment mechanism comprising a base portion resting on the floor in connection with a base extension shaft, the base extension shaft being displaceable relative to a foot connection body so as to determine the height of the household appliance. The height adjustment mechanism includes a ring gear mechanically coupled with the base extension shaft so as to be mutually rotatable in engagement. A guide shell is provided so as to be enclosing the ring gear and the worm gear maintaining the two in a mutually interengaging mechanical relationship and said guide shell is fitted within an operating space of a stopper to be held in fixed position by restriction brackets of the stopper.

The telescoping adjustable leg comprises a tubular housing, a tubular toe, a cylindrical toe, a base and an externally threaded rod. The adjustable leg 10 is expandable from a fully retracted position to a fully extended position by rotation of the housing and cylindrical toe relative to the tubular toe.

An electronic apparatus includes a main body including a nut portion; a plurality of level-adjustable foots placed at a lower side of the main body, configured to support the main body, adjustable in height to level the main body, and including a bolt portion inserted in and screw-coupled to the nut portion; and an elastic member configured to elastically press one of the bolt portion and the main body toward the main body or the level-adjustable foot to make a first thread of the bolt portion and a second thread of the nut portion corresponding to the first thread be in contact with each other.

An apparatus and method for easily and permanently leveling an appliance is described. The apparatus involves a modification to the appliance to support shims, and preferably the two-part adjustable leveling shims. Alternatively, a template for affixing two-part adjustable leveling shims is used between the appliance and the mounting surface.

A frame assembly (2) and a system including the frame assembly and a free-standing household appliance (3) are configured for inserting the free-standing household appliance (3) into a recess (4) in a wall (6). In order to improve a visually pleasing combination of a free-standing household appliance (3) and at least one piece of furniture, the frame assembly (2) for inserting the free-standing household appliance into a recess (4) of a furniture set that is or can be disposed against a wall (6), at least one connection module (22) is configured for connecting the free-standing household appliance (3) to domestic installations, wherein the connection module (22) is designed both to connect at least one connector (26) of the free-standing household appliance (3) to the connection module (22) and to connect the connection module (22) to the domestic installations.

Embodiments of a dishwasher may include a frame defining a treatment chamber for items to be washed, and at least one coupling system for coupling the frame to furniture walls. Each one of the at least one coupling system may include a support element coupled with the frame with the possibility of moving with respect to the frame, the support element being further adapted to be fixed to a corresponding furniture wall by means of a fastening member; and a regulation element coupled with the support element and operable to cause a movement of the frame with respect to the support element after the support element is fixed to the corresponding furniture wall.

A household appliance includes a housing, height-adjustable levelling feet arranged on an underside of the housing, and height-adjusting devices for adjusting a height of the leveling feet, respectively. Each height-adjusting device includes an adjustment housing fixed to the housing, a threaded shaft passing vertically through the adjustment housing in an interlocking manner and including a foot plate, a worm wheel as an output gear at an outer circumference thereof which is mounted rotatably in the adjustment housing and threadably engaged with the threaded shaft, and a worm connected to an adjusting rod and forming a drive gear for driving the worm wheel. The threaded shaft can have along a length thereof a flattened section which rests against the adjustment housing at one point at least, or two flattened sections arranged on opposite sides of the threaded shaft, or two axially extending grooves arranged on opposite sides of the threaded shaft.
