Abstract: A dish rack for cleaning reusable plastic dishware can include a bottom support wall, a sidewall defining an outer frame, and a cover positionable over the bottom support wall. In some examples, the dish rack includes spaced-apart prongs extending upwardly from the bottom support wall. In use, an operator can load reusable plastic dishware on or between the prongs of the dish rack and close the cover. This can enclose the reusable plastic in a space bounded between the bottom support wall, the sidewall defining the frame, and the cover. Once loaded, the operator can insert the dishrack into the dishwasher to clean the reusable plastic dishware while retained in the dish rack. The dish rack can allow the reusable plastic dishware to be properly cleaned while minimizing or eliminating problems associated with the comparatively light reusable plastic dishware moving in response to high pressure water within the dishwasher.

Abstract: This shock absorber includes a first valve assembly connected to one end of a tube in an axial direction, a piston assembly dividing an inner chamber of the tube into a first chamber and a second chamber, a piston rod extending from the tube through the first chamber with the piston assembly connected to an intermediate position in the axial direction, a cup provided in the second chamber, and a second valve assembly disposed in the second chamber to be connected to the piston rod and configured to enter and exit from the cup. The cup includes a sleeve disposed in the second chamber with a gap between itself and the tube in a radial direction, and a base adapter fixed to the sleeve by press fitting and provided between the sleeve and the first valve assembly.
