A dishwasher can include a tub defining a treating chamber receiving dishes for treatment, a spray system providing treating liquid to the treating chamber, a first dish rack located in the tub and having a bottom wall with inclined portions configured to cradle a glass therebetween and prevent the glass from rolling.

A dishwasher is disclosed. The dishwasher includes a main body provided a washing tub inside, a first basket disposed inside the washing tub and configured to accommodate an object to be washed, and a second basket configured to accommodate the object to be washed, and move in a vertical direction between a first position disposed in a partial area inside the first basket, and a second position disposed above the partial area spaced apart from the first basket.

The present invention relates to a dishwasher for washing fruits and vegetables with less water and minimum energy use. The dishwasher (M) comprises main body; first basket (S); bottom area (1) in which there are provided two-way valve (1a), first channel (1b) and second channel (1c); washing compartment (2) comprising third channel (2a), first water outlet (2b), second water outlet (2c) and drainage connection unit (2d); fruit and vegetable washing apparatus (F) located on the first basket (S) and comprising chamber (4) in which fruits and vegetables are washed, carrying member (2) providing connection to the first basket (S) and one side of which is connected with lower side of the chamber (4), first water inlet (7) through which water reaching the first water outlet (2b) is transmitted into the carrying member (2), second water inlet (8) transmitting water from the second water outlet (2c) into the chamber (4); and control unit which controls operation of the valve (1a) such that water is transmitted to the second channel (1c) for washing fruits and vegetables or to the first channel (1b) for washing dishes inside the dishwasher (M), in response to the user-selected washing program of the dishwasher (M).

A dishwasher includes a pump device operated by a pump current for supply of washing liquor to a first spray device via a first hydraulic arrangement for providing a first washing zone and to a second spray device via a second hydraulic arrangement for providing a second washing zone. A third spray device is connected to one of the first and second hydraulic arrangements for providing an intensive washing zone. In a first switching state, the third spray device is isolated from the one hydraulic arrangement, and in a second switching state the third spray device is connected to the one hydraulic arrangement. A control device determines a current switching state of the third spray device as a function of a difference between the pump current when washing liquor is supplied to the first hydraulic arrangement and when washing liquor is supplied to the second hydraulic arrangement.

A dish rack for use in a dishwasher is provided. The dishwasher includes a tub defining a washing chamber for cleaning kitchenware and the like. The dish rack includes a wall bounding a space. A dispenser unit is mounted to the dish rack and is configured to hold an additive. A hydraulic circuit is disposed within the walls of the dish rack and is placed in fluid communication with the dispenser. Fluid pressure from the hydraulic circuit is operable to eject the additive from the dispenser unit into the washing chamber.

A dishwasher may utilize a multi-level dishwasher rack that in some instances may be reconfigurable into different configurations to optimize the rack for different types and/or combinations of utensils. A movable divider may be used in some instances to selectively expose a deep portion of a rack, and a drawer may be used in some instances to provide access utensils stored underneath a divider. A movable portion of a bottom of a rack may also be used in some instances to provide different support surfaces in the rack at different elevations. A tubular spray element or another rotatable spray tube may also be positioned relative to a multi-level dishwasher rack in some instances to facilitate concentrated washing of different facing surfaces of different utensils stored in the rack.

Provided herein are a spray arm assembly and associated dishwasher. The spray arm assembly may include a spray arm and a satellite arm. The spray arm may have a body defining an inlet opening and an outlet opening spaced along the body, and the body may receive washing fluid at the inlet opening and direct at least a portion of the washing fluid to an outlet opening. The body may further define one or more fluid supply channels extending between and fluidly communicating the inlet opening and the outlet opening. The satellite arm may be rotatably coupled to the spray arm at the outlet opening, and a portion of the one or more fluid supply channels may extend past the outlet opening to direct at least a portion of the washing fluid past the outlet opening and back towards the inlet opening before entering the outlet opening.
