One or more frame assemblies having one or more sets of swing arms mounted on it is provided. With one or more secondary conveyors coupled to th frame assemblies. One or more cleaning subsystems are releasably coupled to the swing arms. A controller is provided where the single baking pan is admitted via the indexing conveyor based on signals from the controller into the one or more track guides as supported by the one or more supports and conveyed by the support carriage along the track guides and into the one or more frame assemblies after the twist turns the pan at least substantially perpendicular and the pan engages the one or more secondary conveyors and the pans is conveyed by the support carriage and the secondary conveyor to one or more cleaning subsystems.
Floor planning and placement of objects in a loading space
Methods, systems, and computer program products for placement of objects in a loading space are provided. Aspects include determining item data for a plurality of items, determining space data for a loading space, generating an optimized configuration for placement of the plurality of items in the loading space comprising determining one or more geometric representations for each item in the plurality of items, wherein the one or more geometric representations for each item are coupled together, determining, by an algorithm, a location in the loading space for each item in the plurality of items based on the one or more geometric representations for each item and the space data, and displaying, by a display, the optimized configuration comprising an image of each item of the plurality of items overlaid on corresponding locations in an image of the loading space.
REUSABLE FOOD OR BEVERAGE CONTAINER WASHING SYSTEM
A reusable food or beverage container washing system and method of operation automates tracking, returning, washing, and outputting of reusable food or beverage containers. A reusable food or beverage container has an identification device associated therewith. The reusable food or beverage container is used to supply a food or beverage to a customer and associated with a customer identifier. When the customer is done using the reusable food or beverage container, it is returned to a receptacle of the system, and automatically transported to a washing system where it is washed, sanitized, and dried, and then output to a stack or other organized storage structure of container.
CHAIR DEVICE, PROPPING DEVICE, AND MATTRESS DEVICE
A chair device, a mattress device, and a propping device are provided. The chair device includes a support stand, a seat module disposed above the support stand, a connection module disposed at one side of the seat module, a back support module connected to the connection module and disposed at one side of the seat module, a first pressure adjustment module disposed in the seat module, a second pressure adjustment module disposed in the back support module, a first pressure sensing module disposed in the seat module, a second pressure sensing module disposed in the back support module, and a control module. The control module adjusts the first pressure adjustment module according to first sensed pressure signals from the first pressure sensing module, and adjusts the second pressure adjustment module according to second sensed pressure signals from the second pressure sensing module.
TABLEWARE WASHING DEVICE AND METHOD OF WASHING TABLEWARES
A tableware washing device and a method of washing tablewares are provided. The tableware washing device includes: a casing including a first accommodating space, which is used for accommodating at least one tableware for performing a washing process, a carrying module disposed in the casing, a control module, a first cleaning module disposed on an inner side of the casing and electrically connected to the control module, and a first image capture module electrically connected to the control module and disposed in the casing. The first cleaning module includes a plurality of first cleaning units that respectively provide a plurality of cleaning jets to clean the at least one tableware. The control module determines whether or not the at least one tableware is clean through a plurality of first cleaning procedure image informations captured by the first image capture module.
WASTE STORAGE DEVICE AND INTELLIGENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A waste storage device and an intelligent management system are provided. The waste storage device includes: a casing, a control module disposed in the casing, a microphone module disposed on an outer surface of the casing, and a moving module electrically connected to the control module. The microphone module is electrically connected to the control module. When the microphone module receives a first audio signal, the microphone module transmits the first audio signal to the control module, the control module analyzes an audio sending direction of the first audio signal, and the control module provides a driving signal to the moving module according to the first audio signal to drive the waste storage device to move in the audio sending direction.
VERIFICATION OF CLEANING PROCESS EFFICACY
Experimental color data obtained from a plurality of cleaning process verification coupons is used to determine optimized cleaning process parameters in an automated cleaning machine. Color data may also be obtained from cleaning process verification coupon(s) to verify the efficacy of a real-world cleaning processes in an automated cleaning machine and/or to obtain one or more suggested corrective action(s) in the event the cleaning process yields an unsatisfactory cleaning result. Based on the optimized cleaning process parameters, an automated cleaning machine may automatically adjust one or more cleaning process parameters to correct for non-optimized parameters sensed during execution of a cleaning process to help prevent an unsatisfactory cleaning result.
