Abstract

Upper and lower mesh-units are installed in a dish washing machine above the spaces into which work-baskets containing dishes to be washed are insertible when the door of the machine is open. A mechanism between the door and the mesh units allows them to descend into the work-baskets as the door is closed. The meshes carried by the mesh-units then drape over and between the dishes to hold them apart and against turning during the dish washing operation.
