A hydraulic control device for liquid-conducting household appliances or systems comprises:a hydraulic unit (11), having a hydraulic body (15) defining a duct (30) for the liquid, the duct (30) having an inlet (18i) and an outlet (31), the duct (30) being at least partially defined with an electrically insulating material, an electrical valve arrangement (EV, SH) on the hydraulic body (15), which is electrically switchable between a closing position and an opening position, to prevent or enable, respectively, passage of the liquid between the inlet (180 and the outlet (31) of the duct (30), a flow sensor on the hydraulic body (15). The flow sensor is a non-mechanical flow sensor comprising at least two electrical detection elements (42), prearranged for contact with the liquid that flows in the duct (30) and carried by at least one support (41), that preferably at least partly extends within, or faces the inside of, the duct (30) and/or has two opposite major faces that are substantially parallel to a direction of a flow of the liquid.

An anti-leakage pipe assembly includes a valve body. The valve body is externally sleeved with a housing. A corrugated pipe is in the housing. One end of the valve body is sleeved with a second nut. The other end of the valve body is connected to an inner pipe. An end of the inner pipe distal from the valve body is connected to an elbow pipe. An end head of the elbow pipe is sleeved with a first nut.

A cleaning device for a vessel includes a base body, a valve, a spray body, a restoring device, a release mechanism and an actuating element. The base body includes a connector, the valve is disposed between the base body and the spray body and the valve is operable by the release mechanism against a restoring force applied by the restoring device, the actuating element being disposed on the release mechanism and the actuating element includes at least one leg forming a supporting surface for a vessel and the spray body includes a spray head disposed above and at a distance from the supporting surface, the restoring force being greater than the sum of the gravitational forces of the vessel, the release mechanism and the actuating element.

A dishwasher includes a tub, a basket, a spray device configured to spray washing water, and a sump configured to supply the washing water to the spray device. The spray device includes a first spray rotor including a first spray arm and a shaft integrally formed with the first spray arm to guide the washing water supplied from the sump to the first spray arm, a second spray rotor rotatably coupled to the shaft and including a second spray arm configured to spray the washing water branched from the washing water guided to the first spray arm through the shaft, and a shaft hole formed in the second spray arm to allow the shaft to pass therethrough, and a communication hole formed in the shaft to allow the shaft to communicate with the second spray arm.

An assembly includes a transducer and anti-flood device. The transducer receives, as an input, a pressure signal taken by a liquid held in a main container and includes a circuit, for providing, as an output, an electric control signal having a variable parameter representing the pressure signal. The anti-flood device includes a receptacle, a float and a sensor. The receptacle is arranged to receive and hold a part of liquid coming from the secondary container. The float is movably mounted in the receptacle and moves up to a height representing the level reached by the part of liquid. The sensor is configured to detect the height reached by the float and to transmit an electric level-indicating signal representing the height to the circuit. The circuit is designed to apply, to the variable parameter, a correction that is determined as a function of the level-indicating signal according to predetermined criteria.

A dishwasher includes a compartment in the form of a drawer or pull-out treating chamber slidably mounted in a chassis is provided with one or more liquid supply and draining conduits for supplying and draining liquid to and from the treating chamber.

An appliance drain pan comprises an upturned rim around an outer edge of the drain pan, a horizontal rear ledge, a horizontal front ledge, horizontal left and right side support ledges, and a central depression between the rear and front ledges. The central depression is deeper than the rear, front, and side support ledges relative to a top edge of the rim. At least a portion of the central depression extends under at least a portion of each of the side support ledges.

A dishwasher door assembly can include a door with an exterior surface bounding an interior space, a controller, a light source electronically coupled to the controller and positioned within the interior space, and an optical waveguide coupled to the door and configured to direct emitted light from the light source out of the interior space.

A modular water leakage detector includes a housing that carries a plurality of water leakage sensors, an electrical water shutoff valve, and circuitry coupled thereto. In response to sensing water leakage, the circuitry actuates the valve to shut off a water supply. Detectors can communicate alarm indicating signals directly with one another. The detectors can include a wireless transmitter and communicate with a displaced alarm monitoring system.

A dish washer includes a cabinet, a tub positioned inside the cabinet, a sump provided in a lower portion of the tub, a case brake provided on a side wall of the tub connected to the sump, and a filter device positioned below the tub inside the cabinet, to selectively filter or unfilter water received from a water supply source, and to supply the filtered water or the unfiltered water to the case brake, the water passed through the case brake is collected in the sump, the case brake is located higher than the sump to prevent a backflow of the water collected in the sump to the case brake.
