Abstract
A food soil handing system for a dishwasher is provided. A main carrier arm has two driver arms rotatably mounted thereon. Each driver arm turns a driver gear engaged with a stationary ring gear. Rotation of the driver arms results in rotation of the main carrier arm, providing significant torque. The main carrier arm is disposed above a drain plate having perforations to drain wash water. A pair of resilient wipers are secured to the main carrier arm to wipe across the plate as the carrier arm rotates. The wipers mash soft food particles through the perforations. Hard items are either swept around or passed over by the wipers for later retrieval.
