A household dishwasher includes a dishwasher cavity for receiving items to be washed for treatment, and a structural unit sized to extend over at least half of a width of the household dishwasher. The structural unit includes an air outlet for blowing air out of the dishwasher cavity, an extensive slotted blow-out opening in an upper region of the structural unit, and a collecting tank in a lower region of the structural unit for collecting condensate.

A dishwasher includes a dishwasher cavity for treatment of items to be washed and an air outlet for blowing out air from a dishwasher cavity. The air outlet is arranged in a lower quarter of a height of the dishwasher and extends as a slotted outlet across at least two thirds of a width of the dishwasher. The air outlet includes a first air-guiding element designed for a targeted removal of air into a region in front of a front face of the dishwasher, with the first air-guiding element applying a downward component to outflowing air.

A dishwasher includes a tub having a top wall extending between opposing side walls. The tub defines a washing chamber. A dishrack operable between a stowed state within the washing chamber and a deployed state extending at least partially out of the washing chamber. An air drying system is coupled to the tub and includes a housing coupled to the top wall of the tub. The housing extends into the washing chamber proximate the dishrack and defines an air inlet. An air knife coupled to the housing and extending along a width of the washing chamber proximate to the top wall of the tub. The air knife defines a slit. A blower operably coupled to the air knife is configured to draw air through the air inlet and direct the air through the slit of the air knife to generate an air curtain across the width of the washing chamber.

A dishwasher may include: a user interface device; communication circuitry; and a controller configured to: receive, through the communication circuitry, external humidity information detected by an appliance in an environment of the appliance, based on the received external humidity information and a washing course of the dishwasher that is input via the user interface device, change setting information related to an operation of at least one of a rinsing process of the washing course or a drying process of the washing course, and based on the changed setting information, control the operation of the at least one of the rinsing process of the washing course or the drying process of the washing course.

A dishwasher includes a tub having a top wall and opposing sidewalls that at least partially define a washing chamber. A housing coupled to the top wall of the tub. A motor disposed in the housing. A lead screw operably coupled to the motor, the lead screw extends between the opposing sidewalls of the tub. An air knife assembly is operably coupled to the lead screw. The air knife assembly is operable between a stowed state and a deployed state. The motor drives rotation of the lead screw to move the air knife assembly, the air knife assembly including, an air knife defining an air inlet and an air outlet, and a blower coupled to the air knife. The blower is configured to direct air through the air outlet of the air knife to generate an air curtain when the air knife assembly is in the deployed state.

A household dishwasher includes a dishwasher cavity for processing items to be washed, a front panel attached to a front side of the household dishwasher, and an air discharge unit arranged in a lower quarter of a height of the household dishwasher and including an air outlet designed to discharge air from the dishwasher cavity and arranged in the lower quarter of the height of the household dishwasher. The air outlet extends as a slotted outlet over at least two thirds of a width of the household dishwasher. The air discharge unit is designed to be held indirectly or directly on the front panel via a retaining connection in such a way that the air discharge unit is detachable from the front panel when the front panel is dismantled.

A conveyor warewasher for cleaning washware includes at least one washing zone at least one rinsing zone and a conveyor apparatus for conveying the washware therethrough. A camera system is arranged above or below or to the side of the conveyor apparatus and is configured to capture at least one image of an area of the conveyor apparatus. An evaluation device is configured to evaluate and determine on the basis of the classification performed whether, at the time of the image capture, at least one of the following categories of washware was present in the area of the conveyor apparatus: cutlery or pieces of cutlery; pots, pans, or GN containers; glasses, in particular drinking glasses; trays or tray-like objects; plates, cups, or bowls; utensils; other washware; mixed washware; plastic washware; or no washware.

A dishwasher includes a body including an opening through which an object to be washed is loaded, a door to be connected with one side of the body and while the door is connected to the one side of the body, the door selectively opens and closes the body, a driving device that drives the door to be selectively opened on the body, a memory to store at least one instruction, and at least one processor configured to execute the at least one instruction, and control the driving device such that the door is opened in relation to a drying cycle, wherein the at least one processor is configured to obtain an operation state of a heating device around the dishwasher, and based on opening of the door being necessary, adjust a time point of opening the door in relation to the drying cycle based on the obtained operation state.

A dishwasher includes a drying system that incorporates a mixing conduit that mixes air streams from an exhaust fan that draws humid air from a wash tub and a mixing fan that draws ambient air from the surrounding environment of the dishwasher to lower a dew point of the air that is exhausted by the dishwasher. In some instances, an additional inlet fan may be used to direct ambient air into the wash tub, and in some instances, the ambient air drawing into the mixing conduit by the mixing fan may be untreated.
