Disclosed is a cleaning device for cleaning items to be cleaned. The cleaning device has at least one cleaning chamber and at least one covering device at least partially surrounding the cleaning chamber. The covering device can be moved in an opening movement direction from a closed position into an open position or in a closing movement direction from an open position into a closed position by means of at least one electromechanical drive via at least one transmission. The cleaning device furthermore has a sensor, which is designed to detect an action of a manual force on the covering device in the opening movement direction or in the closing movement direction. The cleaning device is furthermore designed to control the electromechanical drive in accordance with the detection of the action of the manual force.

A batch-type warewash machine includes a chamber for receiving wares to be cleaned, the chamber having a chamber access opening and a single spray zone, with at least one spray system for spraying liquid onto wares in the single spray zone. A door is movable between a closed position covering the chamber access opening and an open position away from the chamber access opening to allow wares to be moved in and out of the chamber. A curtain structure is mounted on the machine, the curtain structure located behind the door when the door is in the closed position. The curtain structure remains in position and at least partially covers the chamber access opening when the door is in the open position so as to retain hot moist air within the chamber when the door is moved to the open position upon completion of a ware cleaning cycle.

A ware rack system for holding lightweight wares during cleaning in a warewash machine includes a lower ware rack including a bottom wall, upright side walls and a plurality of pegs extending upward from the bottom wall, wherein a multiplicity of the pegs are tall pegs that have upper ends that are located higher than upper edges of the upright side walls. An upper ware rack may be placed inverted atop the lower ware rack to capture lightweight wares between the upper ends of the tall pegs and the bottom wall of the upper ware rack.

A commercial dishwasher includes a hood movable in a vertical direction between an open position and a closed position. The hood includes two opposing side walls and a front wall connecting the side walls. In the closed position, the side walls and the front wall bound a treatment chamber. In the open position, the side walls and the front wall are present above an upper wall and/or ceiling region, which bounds the treatment chamber upwardly and is fixedly connected to a rear wall of the treatment chamber, and there laterally bound a clear space at least partially or in regions. The dishwasher includes a drying module, which is arranged on the upper wall region of the dishwasher and is configured such that it is completely accommodated in the clear space, which is, in the open position of the hood, laterally bounded by the side walls and the front wall.

A dishwashing machine is used for pre-rinse operation of soiled dishes. A cavity is configured and arranged to contain the soiled dishes. A nozzle is proximate the cavity and is in fluid communication with the cavity. An accumulator pan accumulates wash and rinse water including cleaning chemicals used in a previous cycle of the dishwashing machine. A fluid passageway interconnects the nozzle and the accumulator pan. A pump directs the accumulated wash and rinse water from the accumulator pan to the nozzle via the fluid passageway for pre-rinse operation of the soiled dishes in the cavity, and the nozzle directs the accumulated wash and rinse water into the cavity with the soiled dishes to assist in removing soil from the soiled dishes prior to a wash cycle of the dishwashing machine. The wash cycle utilizes fresh wash water.
