Abstract: An appliance includes an outer cabinet having a front aperture for accessing a processing space. A door selectively engages the front aperture in a closed position to enclose the processing space. A hinge includes a cabinet mount attached to the outer cabinet and having a stop that defines an open position of the door. A hinge pin extends through the cabinet mount to define a rotational axis of the hinge. A sheet metal flange is press fit onto the hinge pin and is fixedly attached to the door. The sheet metal flange is wrapped around the hinge pin and is attached to the door via fasteners. The pin includes a protrusion that selectively engages the stop of the cabinet mount in the open position.

Abstract: Removable filter apparatus for a laundry treating appliance are provided. A filter element is selectively attachable to a lifter base, the filter element being sized to fit within the lifter cover to allow an array of bristles extending upward from the filter element to capture particulate within the water flow. A cleaning comb is hingedly attached to the lifter cover, operable to be rotatably lifted through the filter element to remove pet hair from the bristles of the filter element. A chamber wall extends from an apex of the generally trapezoidal prism shape of the lifter cover downwards towards the open rectangular bottom, the chamber wall dividing the processing space into two water flow paths. Pouch filter elements are selectively attachable to the lifter cover for placement within the two water flow paths to allow the pouch filter elements to capture particulate within the water flow.
