Abstract (en)

A dishwasher having a removable basket (8) that is vertically adjustable within a parallelepiped washing tank (6), comprising a spray arm (10) supported rotatingly below the basket and provided with a connecting pipe (11) extending horizontally between the basket and the arm to join up selectively with a first or a second outlet of a box collector (13) connected to a water supply pipe (14, 16) and disposed in correspondence with the back wall (12) of the tank. The outlets are disposed at different heights corresponding to the adjustable positions of the basket (8). The collector (13) is provided with ball valves adapted to make the supply pipe communicate only with the outlet of the collector that is coupled with the connecting pipe (11). The supply pipe comprises a first portion (14) that extends from the bottom of the tank (6) upward in correspondence with one corner (15) of the tank, and a second portion (16) that extends horizontally from the corner to the collector (13). The rotating arm (10) can therefore extend over the entire width of the washing tank.
