    Abstract: A lid lock assembly for a washing machine appliance is provided. The lid lock assembly includes a lid lock mechanism configured to engage a striker on a lid of the washing machine appliance to lock the lid in the closed position. The lid lock mechanism is actuated using a hydraulic actuation assembly including a water supply conduit and a hydraulic plunger, the hydraulic plunger being configured to actuate the lid lock mechanism when the water supply conduit is momentarily pressurized. Each time the lid lock mechanism is actuated, the lid lock mechanism alternates between a locked state and an unlocked state, thereby allowing the lid lock assembly to lock the lid in the closed position without any electrical harnesses and without requiring that the water supply conduit remain pressurized.

    Abstract: A washing machine appliance has a dispensing assembly with a supply conduit, a unitary manifold body and a water valve. The unitary manifold body defines a Venturi pump. The supply conduit extends between a reservoir and the Venturi pump such that the Venturi pump draws fluid additive from the reservoir to the Venturi pump when the water valve is open and motive liquid flows through the Venturi pump. The Venturi pump is disposed between an inlet and an outlet of the unitary manifold body within the unitary manifold body.
