Abstract
A household appliance includes an interior space for accommodating a rack system, and a wall element on opposite sides of the interior space. A locking projection is arranged on at least one of the wall elements. The rack system has a stationary part arranged in the interior space and a part movable at least partially in front of the interior space via guides. A locking element is provided on the stationary part for detachable engagement with the locking projection, which can be moved into an unlocked position via a driver on the movable part. The locking element can be moved from the unlocked position into the locked position exclusively by gravity and moved into the unlocked position via the driver, and can be moved via the driver from a lowered locking position into a raised unlocked position or from a raised locking position into a lowered unlocked position.
