Abstract:
Adjustable rack assemblies and end caps for appliances, such as a dishwasher appliance, is provided herein. A rack assembly may include a frame, a rack, a first front wheel, a second front wheel, and an end cap. The rack may be selectively mounted to the frame to receive articles for washing within a wash chamber, and may be slidable along the frame between an extended position and a retracted position. The first front wheel may be rotatably attached to the rack above the frame. The second front wheel may be rotatably attached to the rack below the first front wheel in vertical alignment therewith. The end cap may be attached to the frame at a forward end thereof. The end cap may define a top-end catch profile and a bottom-end relief profile.

Claim (Index 13):
A rack assembly comprising:\n a frame positioned within a wash chamber of a dishwasher appliance; a rack selectively mounted to the frame to receive articles for washing, the rack being slidable along the frame in a transverse direction between an extended position and a retracted position; a first front wheel rotatably attached to the rack above the frame; a second front wheel rotatably attached to the rack below the first front wheel in vertical alignment with the first front wheel; and an end cap attached to the frame at a forward end thereof, the end cap defining\n a top-end catch profile having a transverse profile segment and a vertical profile segment extending arcuately from and above the transverse profile segment to receive the first front wheel in the extended position, the vertical profile segment defining a top vertex, and \n a bottom-end relief profile having a concave profile segment defining a bottom vertex and being directed forward along the transverse direction, \n wherein the top vertex is defined forward relative to the bottom vertex in the transverse direction, and wherein at least a portion of the transverse profile segment is defined forward relative to the bottom vertex along the transverse direction.
