  • at least one subregion of the bottom region of the cutlery basket can at least be lowered in relation to the horizontally aligned residual region of the bottom region.
  • the plane of the lowered portion of the bottom portion of the cutlery basket over an angle between 180 and 270 ° to the horizontally oriented plane of the remaining portion of the bottom portion of the cutlery basket.
  • a Spülgutlini for a dishwasher which comprises a first designed as a cutlery receiving area on the cutlery parts lying down, and a second receiving area for items to be washed with at least one Spülguthalter.
  • the at least one Spülguthalter has a relation to the horizontal inclined or tiltable support surface for the dishes and the first receiving area and the second receiving area are substantially in a horizontal plane.
  • a dishwasher, in particular household dishwasher, with a cutlery basket is also in the document EP 0 186 157 B1 disclosed.
  • the cutlery basket disclosed there is designed as a drawer and offers the possibility of conventional cutlery, such as knives, spoons, forks and so on, to record and store in a favorable for the effectiveness of the washing program position.
  • the height of the cutlery drawer is the same It has been chosen that spoons with a large volume of standard cutlery can be easily stored in them.
  • Cutlery items that have a larger size can not be used in the cutlery drawer, since the dimensions of the cutlery parts do not allow insertion of the cutlery drawer in the dishwasher. These items of cutlery must either be rinsed manually or must be used in the baskets so that a reliable drainage of the rinsing liquid can be ensured.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a cutlery basket for lying receiving cutlery pieces for use in a dishwasher, in particular a domestic dishwasher, which can take with optimal use of space in the washing container cutlery with larger dimensions for rinsing and at the same time a good cleaning and drying result.
  • the cutlery basket of a dishwasher according to the invention is characterized in that the levels of the first portion of the cutlery basket and the second portion of the cutlery basket are arranged at an obtuse angle to each other, ensuring an optimized use of space.
  • large items of cutlery or even smaller crockery items, such as cups can be accommodated in the region of the adjoining first portion and the second portion.
  • cutlery items such as spoons, trowels or serving cutlery
  • the sorting of cutlery items is preferably such that they are oriented with their stems of the tapered portions in the direction of the extended areas.

  • the arrangement according to the invention of the two levels of the first portion of the cutlery basket and the second portion of the cutlery basket at an obtuse angle to one another means that the bottom portion extends from a horizontal plane (in the installed position) between a first and a second side edge of the bottom portion. deviating formed. It can be provided that the floor area runs completely obliquely. As a result, the inclusion of larger cutlery parts is guaranteed at the same time maximum space utilization. Due to the "oblique" storage of the cutlery parts of the water drainage is improved during the drying process of the cutlery, which for drying a lower energy consumption is required, compared to cutlery baskets, where a substantially horizontal storage of cutlery parts. As a side effect results in an increased dimensional stability of the cutlery basket.
  • the cutlery basket has at least partially continuously changing clear heights, so that the oblique planes of the first portion of the cutlery basket and the second portion of the cutlery basket are formed.
  • the cutlery basket is arranged above an upper dish rack in the washing container of the dishwasher. It is further provided that the dish rack with respect to the cutlery basket at least partially has different clear heights, so that at the same time the space utilization is optimized with respect to the dish rack.
  • the cutlery basket with its upper cutlery border directly adjacent to a container roof of a washing container of the dishwasher is expedient if the cutlery basket with its upper cutlery border directly adjacent to a container roof of a washing container of the dishwasher.
  • the cutlery basket is assigned its own spraying device for charging the cutlery parts with rinsing liquor. This is expediently arranged above the cutlery basket in order to achieve an efficient loading of the cutlery parts with rinsing liquor.
  • the bottom portion of the cutlery basket is formed as a coarse-meshed grid with bars, wherein at least some of the bars are arranged in an angle, in particular acute, with respect to the vertical.
  • the inclination of at least some of the bars allows easier passage of water arranged below the cutlery basket spray arm. Furthermore, the stability of the cutlery basket is increased.
