ABSTRACT:
A dishwashing machine of the from-loading type has a slidable support assembly enabling a dish supporting rack to be manually slid inwardly or outwardly through the access opening of the wash chamber of the machine. The assembly includes on each side of the rack an elongated channel slide member, a rack support member and two spaced apart bracket members. The elongated channel slide member supports the rack support member which is disposed to slidably move along the channel slide member so as to translate the load force of the rack to the channel slide member. Each bracket members is mounted to the wash chamber side wall and has a central body portion and upper and lower guiding flanges projecting towards the rack and converging toward each other to define a guideway surface for slidably supporting the channel slide member. Each bracket is secured to the side wall of the dishwashing machine by a post and one screw. The use of the bracket members provides a material cost savings and assembly time savings over the previous use of rollers mounted to the side walls.
