A system for optical wash item recognition for commercial dishwashers embodied as conveyor dishwashers or as automatic programme dishwashers, in particular hood dishwashers, wherein the system includes an optical recognition system, especially a camera, for recording at least one two-dimensional image of at least some of the wash items to be treated in the dishwasher. The system also includes an analysis device for analysing at least one recorded image in such a way that individual wash items or groups of individual wash items in the recorded image are located and classified. At least one neural network is used to analyse the at least one recorded image.

A method for controlling a domestic appliance includes the following steps: determining conventional operating parameters when the domestic appliance is in operation; determining a correlation of the operating parameters with respect to external information; and determining a proposal for operating the domestic appliance with the modified operating parameters if the external information deviates from a conventional value.

A dishwashing appliance may include a cabinet, a tub, a spray arm, a fluid pump, an electric motor, a wireless power receiver, and a wireless power transmitter. The tub may define a wash chamber within the cabinet. The spray arm may be movably disposed within the wash chamber. The spray arm may define one or more orifices to direct wash fluid to the wash chamber. The fluid pump may be in fluid communication with the spray arm to motivate wash fluid thereto. The electric motor may be mounted apart from the fluid pump in mechanical communication with the spray arm to direct a spray position thereof. The wireless power receiver may be in electrical communication with the electric motor. The wireless power transmitter may be spaced apart from the fluid pump in operable communication with the wireless power receiver to transmit an electromagnetic field thereto.

A dishwashing appliance may include a cabinet, a tub, a fluid pump, and a wireless power transmitter. The tub may define a wash chamber within the cabinet. The fluid pump may be in fluid communication with the tub for motivating a flow of wash fluid from the tub when activated. The fluid pump may include a fluid impeller rotatably positioned in fluid communication with the wash chamber, and an electric motor in mechanical communication with the fluid impeller to motivate rotation thereof. The wireless power receiver may be in electrical communication with the electric motor. The wireless power transmitter may be spaced apart from the wireless power receiver in operable communication with the wireless power receiver to transmit an electromagnetic field thereto.

A system for dosing substances such as cleaning and/or care agents is disclosed. The system includes a dosing device, at least one energy source, a control unit, a sensor unit, and at least two cartridges for respectively accommodating at least one of the cleaning and/or care agents. The at least two cartridges are capable of being coupled to the dosing device.

The present disclosure relates to a portable car seat comprising a backrest part, and a seat part rotating to be positioned at a front side or a rear side of the backrest part, wherein the backrest part includes an aluminum frame.

An appliance, such as a dishwasher, can include a tub at least partially defining a treating chamber with an access opening, a closure moveable relative to the access opening to selectively open and close the access opening and having at least one exterior surface, and a light source located within the closure. The appliance can also include a controller communicatively coupled to the light source, and an antenna communicatively coupled to the controller.

A method for controlling a domestic appliance includes the following steps: determining conventional operating parameters when the domestic appliance is in operation; determining a correlation of the operating parameters with respect to external information; and determining a proposal for operating the domestic appliance with the modified operating parameters if the external information deviates from a conventional value.

A system for monitoring the operation of a commercial dishwasher (2), which is embodied as a box-type dishwasher or as a conveyor dishwasher, includes at least one temperature sensor (60) designed to record a temperature profile with respect to time which corresponds to the temperature profile with respect to time to which an item of washware is subjected when it is treated in the dishwasher (2). The system further includes an evaluation device (62) designed to receive and to evaluate the temperature profile recorded by the at least one temperature sensor (60), wherein the evaluation device (62) is further designed to ascertain a value of a notional unit of quantity of heat from the temperature profile recorded by the temperature sensor (60). A dishwasher (2) including a corresponding monitoring system and a method for monitoring the operation of a dishwasher (2) are also provided.

An artificial intelligence dishwasher including a dish rack on which dishes are arranged, a spray nozzle configured to spray washing water toward the dishes, a washing pump configured to feed washing water stored in a sump to the spray nozzle, a washing motor configured to drive the washing pump, a camera configured to capture the dish rack to obtain a dish arrangement image, and a processor configured to provide the dish arrangement image to a dish recognition model to obtain dish information included in the dish arrangement image, determine a washing cycle for the dishes based on the dish information, and control driving of the washing motor according to the determined washing cycle is provided. A dishwashing method is also provided.
