ROLLER ASSEMBLY FOR AN APPLIANCE

摘要

A roller assembly for an appliance such as e.g., a rack assembly of a dishwashing appliance is provided. The roller assembly is connected to e.g., the rack of the appliance. The roller assembly includes a roller that is carried upon a primary axle into which a secondary axle is received. One or more such rollers can be used with each roller assembly. The construction can provide improved strength over conventional designs such as e.g., where the roller is directly connected to a wire member. Certain embodiments can also provide aesthetic benefits in that the rollers can be partially or completely hidden depending upon the viewing angle.
