FAUCET WITH UTENSIL FLUSHING MECHANISM
A faucet with a utensil flushing mechanism comprises a faucet mechanism, a water inlet mechanism, and the utensil flushing mechanism. The faucet mechanism comprises a tube body and a first water passage disposed at least partially in the tube body. The water inlet mechanism is connected to the first water passage. The utensil flushing mechanism is disposed on the faucet mechanism and comprises a nozzle configured to be in communication with the water inlet mechanism. The utensil flushing mechanism is movably disposed on the tube body, and the nozzle is configured to be controlled to be in different positions through movement of the utensil flushing mechanism.
DISH DRYING SYSTEM WITH WATER HARVESTING HYBRID NANOMATERIAL
A dishwasher includes a tub with an outlet for humid air to flow out from the tub, and an inlet for dry air to flow into the tub; and a drying system with an air circuit and an adsorbent component disposed between an air inlet and an air outlet in the air circuit. The adsorbent component includes a water harvesting nanomaterial for absorbing water from the humid air and releasing water upon regeneration. During a drying cycle, the air circuit draws humid air from the tub such that the adsorbent component absorbs moisture from the humid air to form a dry air stream, and during a subsequent wash cycle, the air circuit is blocked from receiving air flow such that latent heat can be transferred to the adsorbent component via conduction, convection, or both, to regenerate the water harvesting nanomaterial.
DISHWASHER
The present invention relates to a dishwasher. The dishwasher according to the present invention comprises: a tub having a space for washing dishes formed therein, one side of the tub being open; a base disposed beneath the tub such that the tub is spaced apart from the floor by a predetermined interval; a door for opening/closing one side of the tub, which is open; a door bracket fixedly fastened to the door and rotatably connected to the tub; a cover panel movably disposed on the door so as to cover the door and one side of the base; and a link module for moving the cover panel in the longitudinal direction of the door when the door is rotated. In addition, the dishwasher comprises an upper holder fastened to one side of the cover panel and movably mounted on the door bracket, and a lower holder disposed to be spaced apart from the upper holder downwards by a predetermined interval, fastened to one side of the cover panel, and movably mounted on the door bracket. The door bracket comprises an upper guide unit for guiding the movement of the upper holder, and a lower guide unit disposed beneath the upper guide unit so as to guide the movement of the lower holder.
DOMESTIC DISHWASHING MACHINE AND METHOD
A household dishwasher includes a dishwasher cavity, a door attached pivotably to the dishwasher cavity, a door opening and closing device for automated opening and closing of the door, and a control unit designed to actuate the door opening and closing device. The control unit is designed to detect a motor current of a drive element of the door opening and closing device and to evaluate the detected motor current as to whether the door opening and closing device is functional or non-functional.
CONNECTED DISHWASHER AND WATER HEATER APPLIANCES
A method for operating a dishwasher appliance includes receiving data indicating a status of hot water within a water heater appliance, receiving data indicating a status for a cycle of a dishwasher appliance, and initiating a start for the cycle of the dishwasher appliance in response to the data indicating the status of hot water within the water heater appliance indicating available hot water.
DISH WASHER
A dishwasher includes an additional function module that is disposed at and fixed to a front upper frame reinforcing the upper side of an open front surface of a tub, without a fixing frame exclusive for the function module, thereby ensuring a simple structure and a reduction in manufacturing costs. A mutual coupling structure is formed between the front upper frame and a front side frame reinforcing the sides of the open front surface of the tub, to readily determine the positions of the front upper frame and the front side frame, thereby ensuring a simple manufacturing process.
DISHWASHER WITH DOOR ASSEMBLY
A dishwasher for treating dishes according to a cycle of operation, the dishwasher comprising a tub at least partially defining a treating chamber having an open face for receiving dishes a door assembly movable between opened and closed positions the door assembly comprising a door panel, a pocket handle defining a pocket width and proximate the top of the door panel for selectively opening and closing the open face of the tub, and a console coupled to the top of the door panel and comprising an isogrid structure at a location proximate the pocket handle.
DISHWASHER
A dishwasher and method for treating dishes according to a cycle of operation, the dishwasher comprising a tub at least partially defining a treating chamber and a dish rack movably received within the treating chamber. The dishwasher configured for receiving dishes for treatment during the cycle of operation, and moveable relative to the tub. A sprayer located within the treating chamber, configured to emit spray into the dish rack, where a diverter and thermally-responsive actuator within the sprayer can change the direction of the spray.
Dishwasher in the form of a commercial utensil washer or dishwasher which is designed as a batch dishwasher
A dishwasher (1) in the form of a commercial utensil washer or dishwasher which is designed as a batch dishwasher and is realized as a hood-type dishwasher, wherein the 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 a first treatment zone (6) and at least one further, second treatment zone (7), wherein items of washware can be treated independently of one another and at least temporarily at the same time in the first and in the at least one second treatment zone (6, 7).
Control of cleaning machine cycles using machine vision
Image classification is used to dynamically control one or more wash parameters in an automated cleaning machine. An imaging device installed in the wash chamber of the cleaning machine captures one or more image(s) of articles to be cleaned at various times throughout a cleaning process. A computing device analyzes the captured image(s) to classify the images as to an article type and a rack volume. Based on the article type classification and the rack volume, the computing device dynamically controls one or more parameters of the cleaning process to achieve a satisfactory cleaning and/or sanitizing result.
