Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006010730A1] Disclosed is a dishwasher comprising a device for disposing pieces of silverware. The aim of the invention is to create a dishwasher which allows the objects that are to be washed to be placed in the washing receptacle of the dishwasher in a careful and easily accessible manner while keeping production costs low. Said aim is achieved by providing the dishwasher with at least one dish basket and a support area which can be coupled thereto and is used for placing objects that are to be washed. Said support area can be locked onto the dish basket while being pivotable about an axis into different angles of inclination. At least one support element is arranged which supports the support area at different angles of inclination in a point located at a distance from the axis. Using support areas whose angle of inclination is variable makes it easier to more comfortably, more accessibly, and more securely place dishes or pieces of silverware in the dish basket while optimally utilizing the storage space available. The objects that are to be washed can be disposed in the dish basket in a particularly compact fashion as the angle of inclination of the support area can be adjusted to the specific space requirements of the dishes or pieces of silverware, allowing the space of the dish basket to be optimally utilized. Furthermore, the production costs of the inventive dishwasher are reduced as a result of the simple design of the support element.
