    摘要: A safety arrangement for a dishwashing appliance and an associated apparatus are provided. The dishwashing appliance has a door covering a forward access opening of a tub in a closed position. A sump assembly about a lower end of the tub receives washing fluid therein, and a lower spray arm is rotatable about an axis about the lower end. The lower spray arm is configured to spray washing fluid from the sump assembly toward the tub. A control device actuates the lower spray arm to spray the washing fluid. A detection device interacts with the lower spray arm, and directs the control device to prevent actuation of the lower spray arm in response to the detection device detecting an abnormal displacement of the lower spray arm and/or a force applied to the lower spray arm, both with respect to the axis, with the door in the closed position.

    摘要: A method of preventing galvanic corrosion in a pump motor for a dishwashing appliance is provided, wherein the dishwashing appliance includes a tub portion and a sump assembly disposed about a lower end of the tub portion for receiving a dishwashing fluid therein. Such a method comprises operably engaging a pump assembly in fluid communication with the sump assembly. The pump assembly has a pump motor with a non-submersed aluminum winding terminating in and secured to at least one non-aluminum metallic electrical connector about a non-submersed interface. A moisture-resistant coating material is applied about the non-submersed interface between the aluminum winding and the non-aluminum metallic electrical connector, so as to prevent moisture from encroaching into the interface and promoting galvanic corrosion between the dissimilar metals of the winding and the at least one electrical connector. An associated apparatus is also provided.

    摘要: A protective arrangement for protecting a control device of a dishwashing appliance, and associated dishwashing appliance, are provided. A door assembly, comprising a tub-facing portion of a polymeric material and an opposing outwardly-facing portion, is pivotably engaged with and configured to cover a forward access opening defined by a tub portion of the dishwashing appliance. A control device mounted between the tub-facing and outwardly facing portions selectively directs operation of an operational component of the dishwashing appliance. The protective arrangement includes a protective member extending about the control device and at least partially between the control device and the tub-facing portion. The protective member is comprised of a fire-resistant layer for preventing a flame originating from the control device from interacting with the tub-facing portion, and a non-conductive layer disposed between the fire-resistant layer and the control device for preventing electrical contact between the fire-resistant layer and the control device.

    摘要: An apparatus is provided that includes first, second and third switches, the first and second of which are in line between an appliance and terminals of the appliance that are connectable to a power source. The first switched is configured to open and close based on closing and opening of a door of the appliance, and the second switch is configured to open and close based on the mode of the appliance. Thus, the appliance may be connected to the power source when the first switch or the second switch is closed, and disconnected from the power source when both the first switch and the second switch are open. The third switch, which includes a sensor, is configured to control the second switch to close upon actuation in response to a detection proximate the appliance, where actuation of the third switch may cause the appliance to enter an operational mode.
