  • Publication number: 20210106205
    Abstract: A cutlery tray is provided. The cutlery tray may be used in a dishwasher, where the cutlery tray may be configured to be inserted into the tub of the dishwasher. The cutlery tray may include a frame and a mesh. The frame may be connectable to the inside of the tub of the dishwasher. The mesh may form a bottom section of the cutlery tray on which items to be washed can be placed. The frame may be configured to hold the mesh. The cutlery tray may be formed as one molded piece. In some instances, the cutlery tray can be manufactured in one piece to save time during assembly. Some embodiments may also extend to removable cutlery delimiters for efficient loading of the cutlery tray.

  • Patent number: 10729306
    Abstract: A mechanism for unlocking an elevated lower rack is provided in an arrangement for a dishwasher being capable of elevating the lower rack from a lower position to an upper position and locking the elevated lower rack in the upper position. The elevating arrangement may include a spring loaded pivot arm arrangement to be attached in one end to a tub of the dishwasher and in another end to the lower rack for elevating the lower rack from the lower position inside the tub to the upper position at least partially outside the tub. The elevating arrangement may further include a locking mechanism arranged between the spring loaded pivot arm arrangement and the lower rack, which may lock the spring loaded pivot arm arrangement when the lower rack has been elevated to the upper position, thereby fixing the lower rack in the upper position.

  • Patent number: 4576655
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing hot rolled steel products having high strength and ductility. The method is particularly suitable for low alloy structural steels which contain about 0.02 to 0.15 wt. % C and 0.100 to about 0.015% Nb, the higher Nb percentage being used for steels with the lower C content and vice versa. In the method, the steel is heated to a temperature of about 1150.degree. to about 1250.degree. C. The steel is then rolled during a first sequence of passes so that the average austenite grain size at the end of the first sequence stays below about 50 um and so that the last pass in this sequence is conducted within the temperature range of about 950.degree. to 1100.degree. C. In a second rolling sequence directly following the first sequence, the rolling is continued with further reductions that do not exceed about 15% in each pass. Subsequently, the steel may be cooled to ambient temperature in a conventional manner.

  • Patent number: 4325751
    Abstract: A steel strip displaying high strength and formability properties is fabricated by coiling a steel strip which has been previously processed through a hot-strip mill from an initial steel having a very low amount of alloying compounds and having a temperature of between 750.degree. and 900.degree. C., the coiled steel strip being maintained at a temperature of between 800.degree. and 650.degree. C. for a period of at least one minute, and thereafter cooled to a temperature of below 450.degree. C., the cooling being accomplished at a rate exceeding 10.degree. C./second.
