Abstract
A lower rack assembly for a dishwasher appliance includes a lower rack configured for receipt of articles for washing, and a lift assembly connected to the lower rack. The lift assembly includes a first arm extending between a first end and a second end, the first end of the first arm pivotally coupled to the lower rack, and a first bracket defining a first slot, the second end of the first arm movably coupled to the first slot. Movement of the lower rack along the vertical direction causes movement of the second end of the first arm relative to the first slot along the transverse direction and pivotal rotation of the first end of the first arm.
