DISHWASHER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dishwasher which is excellent in washing performance by catching fine food particles that used to hard to catch in a conventional construction and reducing reattachment to washed objects. SOLUTION: The dishwasher includes: a food particle filter 9 provided at the lower part of the washing tank 3 for catching food particles contained in washing water; a second filter 13 having a mesh finer than that of the food particle filter 9; a plurality of washing nozzles 7 having jet ports for jetting the washing water pressured by a washing pump 6 into the washing tank 3; and a water dividing means 17 for selectively switching the washing nozzles 7 with which washing water is supplied by the washing pump 6. The jet ports are disposed so that the second filter 13 is placed higher than washing water level and at least one of the washing nozzles 7 passes washing water through the second filter 13. Thus, the fine food particles can be captured and reattachment of the food particles to the washed objects 4 can be reduced. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
