  • Patent number: 10631709
    Abstract: A dishwashing appliance includes a tub, a fluid circulation system, and a heating assembly positioned outside of the tub. The heating assembly includes a housing and a tubular heating element disposed within the housing. The tubular heating element includes an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface of the tubular heating element defines a first passage in fluid communication with the fluid circulation system. The outer surface of the tubular heating element is spaced apart from an inner surface of the housing such that a second passage is defined between the outer surface of the tubular heating element and the inner surface of the housing. The second passage is in fluid communication with the tub. A resistive heating material is disposed on the outer surface of the tubular heating element. The resistive heating material is configured to provide thermal energy to the first passage and the second passage.

  • Patent number: 10527109
    Abstract: A clutch assembly includes a drive shaft extending along an axial direction, and an output component, the output component defining a central opening in which the drive shaft is inserted. The clutch assembly further includes a clutch selectively coupling the output component to the drive shaft. The clutch includes a cavity defined in the output component and in communication with the central opening. The clutch further includes a bearing disposed within the cavity, the bearing movable within the cavity between a first position and a second position. The bearing is spaced from the drive shaft in the first position. The bearing contacts an inner surface of the output component defining the cavity and contacts the drive shaft to transfer rotational motion from the drive shaft to the output component in the second position.
