A rinsing container for a household dishwashing machine includes a bottom plate, a rear wall, and a U-shaped rinsing container jacket which is arranged on the bottom plate and fixedly connected thereto via a folded joint. Integrally formed on the bottom plate and on the rinsing container jacket is a fastening flange for fastening the rear wall to the bottom plate and to the rinsing container jacket, with the fastening flange configured to form a part of the folded joint. A folding sealing means is provided in the folded joint and formed as a sealing bead, with the sealing bead having in the folding-joint-forming part of the fastening flange a first cross-sectional surface which is greater than a cross-sectional surface in a central region of the folded joint.

A home appliance, such as a laundry appliance, includes a component assembly with a sensor and a sensor-controlled component for operating the appliance, and a cover for housing the component assembly therein. The cover has an outer surface and an inner surface. The cover includes a functionalized superhydrophobic multi-layer coating on at least one of the outer surface and inner surface. The functionalized superhydrophobic coating prevents moisture from entering the component assembly and attacking sensors housed therein, and has a water contact angle thereon of at least 145 degrees.

The present invention relates to a dishwasher for washing the dishes or the cooking utensils by spraying washing water and steam and a controlling method therefor. The method of controlling a dishwasher includes: a steam supply step of supplying washing water to the sump from an external water source; and a steam generation step of maintaining a water level of the washing water existing inside the washing pump at a certain water level or higher and heating the washing water.

A system and method for deglazing or defrosting items, for cleaning wares, and/or for thermalizing/rethermalizing food items. The system includes a tank for holding fluid and a wash pump for creating a rolling washing action within the wash tank. The method includes placing items into the fluid so that as the fluid rolls within the wash tank, the items become deglazed or defrosted. The system further includes a discharge manifold with a plurality of discharge jets, a flow balancer for equalizing flow to multiple sections of the tank, and a diffuser plate for equalizing flow within a section of the tank. The various components of the system can be removed for cleaning, inspection, and/or replacement. The discharge manifold is accessible for removal and is configured to be easily cleaned.

Stabilized compositions employing a sequestrant system and a binding system for improving shelf stability and dispensing stability of a solid activated bleach composition are disclosed. The compositions contain a peroxygen source and a catalyst activator which require generation of a peroxycarboxylic acid or other active oxygen sanitizing agent at a point of use. Stabilized compositions employ a sequestrant system including a phosphonic acid and/or dipicolinic acid sequestrant and a binding system comprising an anionic surfactant for a solid formulation of a catalyst activator and peroxygen source to provide shelf stability and dispensing stability for a activated bleach composition. Methods of formulating and use are further disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to serine proteases cloned from Bacillus gibsonii, and variants thereof. Compositions containing the serine proteases are suitable for use in cleaning fabrics and hard surfaces, as well as in a variety of industrial applications.

Proposed is ultrasonic spoon washing apparatus and method, which use ultrasonic waves generated by one or more ultrasonic oscillators provided on a vertical side wall of polygonal surfaces of a wash tub, so that spoons contained in a spoon support part rotating forward/in reverse may very efficiently and conveniently be washed while the number of revolutions changes for each washing stage, the apparatus including: a frame body; the wash tub mounted inside the frame body; one or more ultrasonic oscillators provided on an outer side of the vertical side wall; a forward/reverse rotation support part including a support shaft and a rotation support pipe; a spoon support part including a holder and a spoon accommodation container; a rinsing water supply part configured to spray the rinsing water together with a rinsing aid; and a wastewater and foreign material discharge part configured to discharge, to the outside, wastewater and foreign materials.
