DISHWASHER AND RACK ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18390080 titled 'DISHWASHER AND RACK ASSEMBLY

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a dishwasher with a chassis, spray nozzle, dish rack, closure, and loading zone marker. The chassis forms a treating chamber where treating fluid is sprayed by the nozzle, and dishes are placed on the dish rack.

• The chassis of the dishwasher has a base and forms a tub.
• The spray nozzle exhausts treating fluid into the treating chamber.
• The dish rack is located within the treating chamber.
• The closure is moveably coupled to the base.

Key Features and Innovation:

• Chassis with base and tub design
• Spray nozzle for treating fluid
• Dish rack for holding dishes
• Moveable closure for the dishwasher

Potential Applications: The technology can be used in residential and commercial dishwashers to efficiently clean dishes.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for effective dishwashing by providing a system that sprays treating fluid and securely holds dishes in place.

Benefits:

• Efficient cleaning of dishes
• Secure placement of dishes during washing
• Easy to use and maintain

Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in the manufacturing of dishwashers for both residential and commercial use, potentially improving the efficiency and effectiveness of dishwashing processes.

Questions about Dishwasher Technology: 1. How does the spray nozzle in the dishwasher work to clean dishes effectively? 2. What are the potential benefits of using a dish rack in a dishwasher?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in dishwasher technology, such as improved spray nozzle designs or energy-efficient features.
