The invention relates to a method of automatic dishwashing, comprising: placing soiled wares inside a cleaning volume; providing a first cleaning composition comprising a bleach and a second cleaning composition different from the first composition; and delivering the first composition and the second composition separately to the cleaning volume to contact the soiled wares, wherein: the first composition is delivered to the cleaning volume as a mist and the second composition is delivered to the cleaning volume as a jet; and the first and second compositions are delivered to the cleaning volume at a temperature below 100° C. The invention also relates to a dishwasher and a kit for use in the inventive method.

A detergent dispensing apparatus 3 used for a dish washer and a dish washer comprising the detergent dispensing apparatus 3. The detergent dispensing apparatus 3 comprises a liquid storage box, a liquid outlet pump 32 and a pipeline module. The liquid storage box comprises a first half housing and a second half housing, and the first half housing and the second half housing fixedly connect each other in a first direction so as to define a liquid storage cavity used for storing detergent. The liquid outlet pump 32 is configured to suction the detergent from the liquid storage cavity and dispense the detergent to the exterior of the detergent dispensing apparatus 3. The pipeline module comprises a liquid adding channel used for adding the detergent to the liquid storage cavity, a liquid inlet channel used by the liquid outlet pump 32 for extracting the detergent from the liquid storage cavity, and a liquid outlet channel used by the liquid outlet pump 32 for dispensing the detergent. The second half housing defines at least a portion of a pump accommodating space that is used for accommodating the liquid outlet pump.

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.

The invention relates to a cleaning device (01) for food vessels, in particular mixing containers or mixing container parts, in which cleaning liquid is supplied to a valve support (11) and is conveyed through at least one rinsing rod (03), the rinsing rod (03) being disposed in an upwardly open receptacle (02), and an actuating device (09) controlling the flow rate of the cleaning liquid from the valve support (11) into the rinsing rod (03) by means of a valve in the valve support (11), and the rinsing rod (03) having at least one horizontal nozzle (07) for cleaning an inner circumferential surface (08) of the food vessel (04), and the rinsing rod (03) having at least one vertical nozzle (06) for cleaning a bottom surface of the food vessel, the cleaning device (01) being provided with a blocking device (05) which prevents cleaning liquid from exiting through the vertical nozzle (06) and/or the horizontal nozzle (07).

The embodiments are and include an apparatus, system and method for a liquid level monitoring dispenser for association with a liquid filled consumable. The apparatus, system and method may include: a receiver for receiving the consumable upon inversion thereof; at least one electrical contact within the receiver for communicative association with conductive strips on the consumable; a sensing module communicative with the at least one electrical contact and having associated therewith firmware for converting signals associated with the conductive strips and received at the electrical contact to an indication of the liquid level; a communications module for communicating the liquid level to at least a user display and over at least one network; a power module for powering at least the sensing module and the communications module; and at least one dispensing output in fluid communication with the consumable and capable of dispensing the liquid from the consumable to modify the liquid level.

A valve has a plurality of material inlet ports, a flushing inlet port, and an outlet port each connected to a respective supply of one of last two different liquid materials. A movable valve body in the valve has a passage and is shiftable between a plurality of positions in each of which a respective one of the inlet ports is connected to the outlet port via the passage. A controller moves the valve body between the positions such that, after each time the valve body is in a position connecting one of the material inlet ports to the outlet port and material has passed through the passage, the valve body is moved into a position connecting the passage with the flushing inlet port for flushing out the passage.

A reconfigurable three-dimensional lattice in and on which detergent solutions and other liquid films may be deposited and supported, wherein the lattice may be configured and reconfigured for use, cleaning, and storage.

A household dishwasher includes a washing chamber, a control apparatus for running a washing program from a number of washing programs, a metering system having a supply unit for receiving an individual dose of a first cleaning agent and supplying the individual dose into the washing chamber at a metering point in time while running the washing program, and an automatic metering apparatus for automatically metering a plurality of metering quantities from a supply of a second cleaning agent in the form of a solid material into the washing chamber at the metering point in time, and a sensor apparatus configured to detect a state of the metering system and to emit a sensor signal depending on the detected state of the metering system. The control apparatus runs the washing program depending on the sensor signal.
