The present invention discloses a laundry box, comprising a laundry box body, a seal cover and a drain fence, wherein laundry box water inlets and a laundry box drain outlet are provided at the bottom of the laundry box body, a decontamination conductor plate is provided in the middle thereof, a clothes placing port is provided at the top of the laundry box body, and the seal cover is hinged at the clothes placing port; and the drain fence is detachably mounted inside the laundry box body and is located at the side end close to the drain outlet. The present invention further discloses a machine for separately washing clothes designed to be used in conjunction with the laundry box, comprising a housing, a main machine, a cover plate and at least two laundry boxes.

A storage container (100) comprising a housing (110) containing a storage chamber (112) isolated from an outside environment (10). The housing (110) defines a housing inlet (130) and a housing outlet (140). The storage container (100) is configured to clean air in the outside environment (10). The storage container (100) comprises a first filtration assembly (360) coupled to the housing (110) about the housing outlet (140). The first filtration assembly (360) has a first filtration inlet (364) configured to receive air from the storage chamber, a first filtration outlet (366) configured to release air into the outside environment (10), and first filter media (368) between the first filtration inlet (364) and the first filtration outlet (366).

A mobile vehicle that is self-contained and equipped to wash firefighter gear at the firefighter's station. The vehicle would be on a dispatched network and be activated after an incident, and for scheduled cleanings on a regular basis; the vehicle having the required equipment to clean all contaminated gear by use of a sonic cleaner, extractors, and dryers. The process includes monitoring the life of the gear and decontaminating the gear in accordance with the gear manufacturer's recommendations. Gear that has been cleaned is reassembled, wrapped, sealed and placed back into a fireman's station, giving the firefighter the assurance that their firefighting gear was cleaned, sanitized, and serviced per the manufacturer's recommendations.

Techniques described herein generally relate to cleaning with ultrasonic energy. An example method includes introducing a cleaning solution into a planar cleaning cavity formed between a first inner surface and a second inner surface of a non-rigid container, directing ultrasonic energy into the cleaning cavity from an array of ultrasonic energy emitters disposed on the first inner surface, and removing the cleaning solution from the cleaning cavity by creating a negative pressure in the cleaning cavity relative to atmospheric pressure, so that the first inner surface and the second inner surface are displaced toward each other.

The present invention provides a method for treating fabrics by employing an automatic laundry washing machine to selectively add agitation-sensitive detersive actives into the wash liquor during a wash cycle when the mechanical agitation power applied to the fabrics by said washing machine is more than 12 W/kg, so as to improve or optimize the cleaning performance of such agitation-sensitive detersive actives.

A laundry appliance includes a drum that rotationally operates within a tub. The drum defines a processing space for treating articles. A fluid delivery system selectively delivers wash fluid into the processing space. A hemispheric ultrasonic transducer is positioned proximate a base of the drum. The hemispheric ultrasonic transducer selectively directs waves of an ultrasonic frequency in a hemispheric radiating pattern through the processing space. The waves generate air bubbles within the wash fluid and the waves cause the air bubbles to implode and release micro air jets that are directed into the wash fluid for sanitizing the articles. The micro air jets act on the articles to loosen and remove foreign material therefrom.
