ABSTRACT:
A dishwashing apparatus is provided with a float controlled liquid inlet valve. The float includes a centrally located, downwardly extending, stem portion which extends through the inner aperture of a standpipe associated with the bottom wall of the liquid container. A cap portion of the float surrounds and encloses the upper extremity of the standpipe and prevents spraying liquid from escaping the liquid container through the standpipe aperture. A floatation chamber is axially spaced below the cap portion of the float and is connected thereto by a plurality of arms. The spacing of the float chamber from the cap defines openings which allow liquid to wash through the inner section of the float and around the standpipe to remove debris.
