A safety device against leaks of liquid for a liquid-conducting household appliance comprises a valve arrangement that can be electrically switched between a closing position and an opening position, to prevent or enable, respectively, a flow of liquid from a liquid-supply source to the household appliance. The device further comprises:—a first pipe (13) impermeable to liquid, for the flow of liquid,—at least one hydraulic unit (12), having a duct for the liquid (30),—a flow sensor in the at least one hydraulic unit (12). The first pipe (13) is connected in fluid communication with the duct (30) and extends longitudinally at least in part within a second pipe (14) that is impermeable to liquid, in such a way that defined between at least part of the first pipe (13) and of the second pipe (14) is a gap (G) having a proximal end and a distal end. The at least one hydraulic unit (12) has a respective hydraulic body (16) that defines the duct (30). The flow sensor is a non-mechanical flow sensor that includes at least two electrical detection elements (42) within the duct (30).

Disclosed herein is a dishwasher. The dishwasher includes a main body, a tub provided inside the main body, a basket provided inside the tub to store items, an injection assembly configured to spray water to wash the item in the basket, and a duct including a first body configured to supply water to the injection assembly and provided to extend along a first direction, and a second body to which water flows and provided to extend from the first body to along second direction. The duct is formed by coupling of a first housing provided to form at least a portion of the first body and the second body, and a second housing provided to form another portion of the first body and the second body.

A dishwasher appliance including a quick-wash feature. A secondary door attached is attached to a main door and forms a quick-wash compartment. A quick-wash assembly provides fluid for cleaning. Articles may be supported on the secondary door during cleaning or may be manually supported by the user at the quick-wash assembly. Various modes of operation may be used for cleaning including wash and rinse functions.

A method includes supplying, using a water supply coupled to a tub of a dishwasher, water into the tub, wherein the tub includes a sump and a sprayer; circulating, using a circulation circuit coupled to the sump and the sprayer, the water from a sump to the sprayer; storing, using a water tank coupled to the circulation circuit, the circulated water from the circulation circuit on completion of a first phase; drawing heat, using a supply side of a thermoelectric module system coupled to the circulation circuit and the water tank, from the stored water in the water tank from the first phase; and outputting, using an output side of the thermoelectric module system, heat to the circulated water in the circulation circuit for a second phase.

Provided is a dishwasher having an improved structure capable of selecting whether to spray wash water. The dishwasher includes a washing tub, a basket provided in the washing tub to accommodate dishware, a duct provided in the washing tub to be supplied with wash water, a sub-duct mounted on the basket to guide the wash water, a connection pipe connected to the sub-duct, and a spray nozzle coupled to the connection pipe to be rotatable from a first position where the connection pipe is open and a second position where the connection pipe is closed.

A water intake structure, a spray arm assembly and a dishwasher are provided. The water intake structure has a water dispensing member, a water flowing pipe, a housing, a support, and a snap-fit member. The water dispensing member has a water intake passage and a water outlet. The water flowing pipe has a water flowing passage in communication with the water outlet. The water flowing pipe is rotatable relative to the water dispensing member. The housing has a mounting opening and an engagement recess. The water flowing pipe passes through the mounting opening to engage the water dispensing member. The support is engaged into the engagement recess. The water flowing pipe rotatably passes through an interior of the support. The snap-fit member is in snap-fit with the water flowing pipe and is configured to limit positions of the water flowing pipe and the support.

An automatic dishwasher configured to implement an automatic treating cycle of operation. The automatic dishwasher having a tub, a dish rack, a first set of cup seats and a utensil caddy. The dish rack having a bottom wall defining at least one plane, with the first set of cup sets being provided along the bottom wall. The utensil caddy having a first side wall and a second side wall opposing the first side wall, with the first side wall abutting the bottom wall.

An automatic dishwasher configured to implement an automatic treating cycle of operation, comprising a tub defining a dish treating chamber, a dish rack located within the dish treating chamber, and a utensil caddy removably mounted to the dish rack. The utensil rack including a first set of utensil holders provided on a first side wall of the utensil caddy and a second set of utensil holders provided on a second side wall of the utensil caddy.

A device for customizing a washing program for removing soiling from items being washed in a water-conducting household appliance includes a sensor configured to acquire spectral measurement values of organic compounds in washing water in the water-conducting household appliance. A determination unit determines functional groups of the organic compounds based on the acquired spectral measurement values of the organic compounds, and a customization unit customizes washing parameters of a current washing program based on the determined functional groups.
