A household dishwasher includes a dishwasher cavity defining a treatment chamber, a loading unit accommodated in the treatment chamber for holding items to be washed, a washing apparatus configured to apply washing liquid to the treatment chamber, and a fan wheel mounted in the treatment chamber above the loading unit for rotation in a blow-off operating phase such that the fan wheel draws in air from the treatment chamber, accelerates and moves the air forward and downward as an air flow in the treatment chamber. The air flow strikes a blow-off region at a top of the loading unit and blowing off washing liquid from atop the items being washed.

A conveyor dishwashing machine (1) has at least one washing zone (7), and at least one final rinse zone (8) which is connected downstream (as viewed in the transport direction (T) of the wash items) of the at least one washing zone (7). The conveyor dishwashing machine (1) has a transport apparatus for transporting the wash items through the treatment zones (6, 7) of the conveyor dishwashing machine (1) so that the wash items are situated at least in regions in a washing plane (5) which runs horizontally. The washing plane (5) is configured as a main washing plane, and there is at least one additional washing plane (6) in at least one of the treatment zones (7, 8) of the conveyor dishwashing machine (1), in which additional washing plane (6) wash items can be treated at the same time as wash items in the main washing plane (5).

The invention is a system for cleaning an article comprising: a static nozzle to spray a fluid, wherein the position and the orientation of said nozzle remains unchanged; a robotic arm to grasp and move said article so that said fluid is sprayed on said article; a camera to acquire an image of said article; a processor to execute an algorithm based on said image to determine a cleaning protocol, wherein said cleaning protocol lists time sequence of a plurality of robot positions; whereby said article is cleaned thoroughly in real-time. The invention is a also a system for cleaning an article comprising a wash module having the means to transform a soiled article into a clean article, wherein the position of said wash module remains unchanged; a first module for holding said article, wherein said first module pulls out, rises in height, lowers in height, and pulls back in, wherein said article is loaded or unloaded after said first module rises in height; a second module for holding said article, wherein said second module pulls out and pulls back in, wherein said article is loaded or unloaded after said second module pulls out; whereby said article can be loaded or unloaded comfortably without bending.

A dishwasher having an improved structure so that a height of a rack assembly may be adjusted includes: a main body; a tub provided inside the main body and having an opening; a door provided to open or close the opening of the tub; and a rack assembly disposed inside the tub to accommodate tableware, wherein the rack assembly includes: a frame including a loading portion on which the tableware is placed, the loading portion including a fixing plate and a lifting plate provided to be movable up and down; an operating member provided to be capable of adjusting a height of the lifting plate; and a lifting induction member provided to connect the operating member and the lifting plate, and wherein the lifting plate moves in conjunction with the lifting induction member by the operation of the operating member.

A batch dishwasher (1) has a treatment chamber (2) with at least one wash system which is designed as a recirculation system, wherein the treatment chamber (2) has at least two treatment zones (6, 7) in which washware can be treated at the same time but independently of one another, in particular independently of one another in respect of action time, wash and/or rinse mechanics, and/or independently in respect of the selected treatment program. The at least two treatment zones (6, 7) are each realized in such a way that at least one dish rack (5) can be inserted and removed, and wherein the dishwasher (1) has a mechanism for retracting or extending a dish rack (5) into at least one and, respectively, out of at least one of the at least two treatment zones (6, 7) as required.

A dishwasher has a tub defining a wash chamber with an open face, a pivoting door having an open position and a closed position, a slide system having a first rail including a transition element, a second rail slidably interconnected with the first rail for relative sliding, and a dish rack rotatably connected to the slide system by a pivot system. The pivot system is attached to the transition element to cooperatively pivot with the door as the door is moving from the open position to the closed position.
