Abstract
A wash arm arrangement () for a dishwasher is disclosed. The wash arm arrangement comprises a central arm () adapted to be rotatably connected with a first shaft () through which liquid under pressure is fed into the central arm during operation. A second shaft () is arranged on the central arm to provide liquid to a satellite arm () which is rotatably connected with the second shaft. The satellite arm comprises a collimating nozzle () with an exit. The collimating nozzle is arranged for providing a collimated jet for distributing liquid to a washing area of the dishwasher. The inventive concept is based on an understanding that by utilizing a collimated liquid jet with sufficient pressure and flow a good cleaning performance is achieved with a reduced water consumption.
