The cleaning device (110) furthermore has at least one slide (170) and is designed to automatically push the washware (130) of the prespecified type from the transportation device (136) transversely to the transportation direction (138).

A cleaning apparatus for cleaning articles to be cleaned includes at least one cleaning chamber; at least one conveying device configured to convey the articles to be cleaned in a conveying direction through the cleaning chamber, the at least one conveying device comprising a plurality of tracks arranged side by side; at least one nozzle system configured to act upon the articles to be cleaned with at least one cleaning fluid; at least one sensor configured to detect a loading of the conveying device with articles to be cleaned; and at least one control means programmed to select at least one operating mode of the cleaning apparatus corresponding to the loading of the conveying device detected by the sensor, and to propose the selected operating mode to a user of the cleaning apparatus by providing a visual indicator on one or several tracks of the conveying device.

A dishwasher (1) for cleaning drinking vessels, wherein the dishwasher (1) has a treatment zone (3) and a conveyor apparatus (6) for conveying the items of washware (2) to be cleaned from an introduction region (4) of the dishwasher (1) through the treatment zone (3) to a removal region (5) of the dishwasher (1). The conveyor apparatus (6) is configured to convey a previously defined or definable group of items of washware (2) to be cleaned in batches from the introduction region (4) through the treatment zone (3) and then to feed the group of items of washware (2) as cleaned items of washware (2) to the removal region (5).

A system (10) for loading a dishwasher which is designed as, in particular, a commercial conveyor dishwasher (1). The system (10) has a feed conveyor belt (11) for feeding washware (9a, 9b, 9c) to a loading region of the conveyor dishwasher (1). The system (10) also has a sorting arrangement for sorting the washware (9a, 9b, 9c), which is fed to the loading region of the conveyor dishwasher (1) by means of the feed conveyor belt (11), in accordance with predefined or predefinable washware groups. At least one loading arrangement (13a, 13b, 13c) is associated with the sorting arrangement for the purpose of automatically loading the conveyor dishwasher (1) with washware (9a, 9b, 9c) of one of the predefined or predefinable washware groups.

Disclosed a dishwasher, wherein dishes placed on a conveyor are washed, rinsed, and dried while being sequentially conveyed to a washing chamber, a rinsing chamber, and a drying chamber, the dishwasher including: a heat exchanger allowing hot air to be supplied to the drying chamber by heat exchange; a wash water tank in which water supplied to the washing chamber or the rinsing chamber is stored; and a spray device spraying water supplied from the wash water tank onto the dishes placed on the conveyor, whereby it is possible to save energy by providing a single heat exchanger to preheat wash water and rinse water and supply hot air to the drying chamber, and to improve circulation of wash water by a filtering device applied to a structure for reusing wash water, thereby improving sanitation of dishwashing.

The present invention is a drinking straw washing machine with a washing region, a sanitizing region, a straw retaining track, and a motor assembly. The washing region comprises a washing cogwheel rotatably positioned therein that receives straws via the straw retaining track. The washing cogwheel and sanitizing cogwheel are oriented parallel to the straw retaining track. The motor assembly is mechanically coupled to the washing cogwheel and thereby rotates the washing cogwheel to guide straws along the straw retaining track and through a cleaning solution included in the wash region. the sanitizing region comprises a sanitizing cogwheel rotatably positioned therein that receive straws from the washing region via the straw retaining track. The motor assembly is mechanically coupled to the sanitizing cogwheel and thereby rotates the sanitizing cogwheel to guide straws along the straw retaining track, through a sanitizing solution in the sanitizing region, and out of the sanitizing region.

A commercial dishwasher includes at least one washing system for washing washware, having at least one rinsing system for rinsing the washed washware, and optionally a drying system for optimal drying of the rinsed washware. The dishwasher includes a camera system configured to capture at least one image of the washware to be treated in the dishwasher. An evaluation device is further provided, which is configured so as to create a pattern relating to the temporal usage behavior of the operator of the dishwasher, in particular in the course of a profiling process based on the captured images.

A washing device includes a main body, a water system, and a drying system. The main body includes a first washing zone, a second washing zone, and a drying zone. A transporting device transports an object to make it pass through the first washing zone, the second washing zone, and the drying zone. The first washing zone has a first water outlet, and the second washing zone has a second water outlet. The water system includes a heater for heating water and a tank. A first pipe connects the heater and the first water outlet, and a second pipe connects the heater and the tank. An outlet pipe connects the tank and the second water outlet. A collecting structure collects waste water and injects into the tank. The drying system is adapted to supply air flow to the drying zone for drying the object.
