Abstract
A household dishwasher includes a washing container receiving a dishwasher load, a spray arm for applying washing liquor and/or fresh water to the dishwasher load, a drive system for actively driving the spray arm, and an overload protection mechanism configured to move autonomously from a coupling position, in which power is transmitted between the drive system and the spray arm, into a decoupling position, in which the power transmission between the drive system and the spray arm is interrupted, when the spray arm becomes blocked.
