ABSTRACT:
A motion control apparatus for stabilizing the motion of a dishrack mounted within a tub of a dishwasher such that yawing of the dishrack relative to the tub during movement of the dishrack in and out of the tub is prevented. The motion control apparatus includes a mounting mechanism for mounting the dishrack within the tub such that the dishrack is supported within the tub and allowed in and out movement within the tub. A torque shaft is rotatably interconnected with the mounting mechanism such that the torque shaft is disposed transversely within the tub, while gear wheels are rigidly interconnected with the torque shaft at the opposite ends of the torque shaft. Gear tracks are provided along a horizontal top inner surface of the tub corresponding to the gear wheels wherein the gear wheels are operatively meshed with the gear tracks during the in and out movement of the dishrack within the tub.
