Publication number: 20080035183Abstract: A dishwasher with a rinsing container having the advantages of an inert, steel rinsing container, which is easy to produce and which can be adapted to differing requirements. Said aim is achieved in that the dishwasher is provided with a bottom module and a rinsing container, wherein the bottom group forms the bottom of the rinsing container and the top wall of the rinsing container consists of a separate top part. Production and mounting of the rinsing container is considerably simplified by preferably embodying the casing as a single part and by reduction of parts associated therewith, resulting in a reduction in production costs for the inventive dishwasher. Even when the height of the rinsing container varies, it is possible to use the same top part and bottom group; the height of the single-part casing simply needs to be adapted accordingly.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2005Publication date: February 14, 2008Applicant: BSH BOSCH UND SIEMENS HAUSGERAETE GMBHInventors: Cengiz Kuecuek, Bernd Schessl
