Further, a cleaning tank 10 is formed inside the main body 1 below the cleaning chamber 4, and the cleaning water stored in the main body 1 is sent to the upper and lower cleaning nozzles 5 by a cleaning pump 11, and then jetted to the object 7 to be cleaned. Cleaning is performed. Reference numeral 12 denotes a booster for rinsing. The rinsing water, which has been overheated and heated, is sent to the upper and lower rinsing nozzles 6 by a rinsing pump 13 and then jetted to the object 7 to be rinsed.

As shown in FIG . 4, a table 14 for temporarily mounting a rack 8 for accommodating the object 7 to be cleaned is provided on the front surface of the lower part of the washing machine 1. in substantially the same height as the upper end of the side opening portions, and the Rakkure - is formed so as to be substantially flush with the Le 9. A hinge 1 is attached to the front lower surface of the table 14.
5, a support 17 is provided, one end of which is rotatably connected, and the other end of which is supported by a pedestal support 16 provided at the lower portion of the washer 1. Are rotatably provided on a shaft 18 and are freely foldable. For this reason, the table 14 can be stored when not in use for the purpose of reducing waste of space.

A downwardly bent flange 14A is provided at the rear end of the table 14, that is, at the end on the dishwasher main body 1 side .
As shown in FIG.
Of the washing room 4. This is because the water generated after cleaning the object to be cleaned 7 flows into the cleaning chamber 4. Next, the support portion 17 will be described in more detail.

The support portion 17 shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 comprises two upper and lower rod members 17A and 17B rotatably connected by a shaft 18, and the upper rod member 17A is connected to the left and right by rods. It is. Further, the lower rod member 17B is provided outside the upper rod member 17A , and the lower rod member 1B is provided.
At the upper end of 7B, a stopper 19 protruding inward is provided. The upper bar member 17A is provided with a receiving portion 20 for receiving the stopper 19.
Further, as shown in FIG. 6, after the stopper 19 is fitted to the receiving portion 20, a cylindrical stopper for maintaining the fitted state is provided on the upper bar member 17A . Ring 21
And a U-shaped cut is provided so as not to interfere with the stopper 19. The stopper ring 21 is slidable in the longitudinal direction of the upper bar member 17A.

A cylindrical hole 23 is formed in the lower end of the support portion 17, that is, the lower bar member 17B in the longitudinal direction as shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, and the inner surface of the hole 23 is It is screwed. Further, a pedestal 22 having a screw portion to be screwed into the hole 23 is provided, and fine adjustment in the longitudinal direction of the support portion 17 is possible. Further, at the lower end of the pedestal 22, a thinner rod-shaped insertion member 22A of the pedestal 22 is provided, and is inserted through an insertion hole 24 formed in the It is designed to prevent rattling.

The operation of the present invention with the above configuration will be described below. First, the case where the table 14 is changed from the stored state to the use state will be described.
