Dish washing machine

A dish washing machine including a washing tub to wash dishes and a dish basket arranged in the washing tub to accommodate the dishes, the dish washing machine comprising:

• a plurality of liquid ejecting heads arranged in a first direction to eject water in a second direction;
• a deflection unit arranged outside of the dish basket and extending in the first direction arranged facing the plurality of liquid ejecting heads and moving in the second direction to deflect the water ejected from the plurality of liquid ejecting heads toward the dishes;
• and
• a drive unit to drive the deflection unit to move between front and rear surfaces of the washing tub or between left and right surfaces of the washing tub,
• wherein the drive unit comprises a rail coupled to the deflection unit to guide movement of the deflection unit, a motor to drive the deflection unit, a pulley or gear coupled to the motor, and a connection member to connect the pulley or gear to the deflection unit.

A dish washing machine comprising:

• a cabinet forming an external appearance of the dish washing machine;
• a washing tub arranged in the cabinet and allowing dishes to be washed therein;
• a plurality of liquid ejecting heads adapted to eject water in a direction substantially parallel with a dish basket;
• a deflection unit arranged outside of the dish basket and arranged facing the plurality of liquid ejecting heads to contact the water ejected from the plurality of liquid ejecting heads to deflect the water in upward directions toward the dish basket located above the deflection unit;
• and
• a drive unit comprising a rail coupled to the deflection unit to allow the deflection unit to move in the direction substantially parallel with the dish basket toward or away from the plurality of liquid ejecting heads, and a motor to move the deflection unit,
• wherein at least one of a state in which the deflection unit is moved toward the plurality of liquid ejecting heads and a state in which the deflection unit is moved away from the plurality of liquid ejecting heads is achieved by the motor of the drive unit.
