A method is provided for cleaning food product molding inserts that have been temporarily detached from a movable mold member of a molding device that is configured for molding food products from a pumpable foodstuff mass.

The present application discloses a method for purge clean of a low pressure furnace, comprising: step 1, providing a process chamber of the low pressure furnace in a standby state, wherein an inner wall thin film formed by a furnace deposition process is accumulated on the surface of an inner wall of the process chamber; step 2, performing temperature ramp-up or temperature ramp-down treatment on the process chamber to generate first thermal stress in the inner wall thin film, wherein thin film particles with poor adhesion in the inner wall thin film peels off; step 3, introducing a cleaning gas in a pulse manner to perform cycle purge clean on the process chamber, so as to remove the peeling thin film particles from the process chamber; and step 4, switching a state of the process chamber to the standby state after the cycle purge clean ends.

A method for automated cleaning of an immersion tank (14) includes: substantially enclosing an interior volume (30) of the immersion tank (14); increasing the temperature and humidity in the interior volume (30) of the immersion tank (14); then applying cleaning solution to interior surfaces of the immersion tank (14); and rinsing the cleaning solution and soil off the interior surfaces of the immersion tank (14).

Installation provided with at least one high-pressure circuit comprising at least one high-pressure pump and rotating nozzles attacking the four sides of crates in order to automatically remove labels, wherein the installation further comprises a low-pressure circuit able to clean the installation inwardly and to transport labels to specific filters so that stoppages are diminished and further able to recirculate the water of the high-pressure and low-pressure circuits, and wherein trolleys holding the crates are able to rotate by means of a predefined path on perimetral guides of the frame so that the jets of the nozzles attack the required walls of the crates on four sides.

A wash ring for cleaning a tank. The wash ring comprises a curved surface having an inner edge and an outer edge. The wash ring further comprises an inner wall having a first height and an outer wall located between the inner end and outer end and having a second height that is less than the first height. A plurality of notches is located at the outer edge of the curved surface. The wash ring has a feed pipe with an outlet located between the inner wall and outer wall.

A radius scraper includes a semicircular-shaped scraper having a curved front face, the curved front face having vertical grooves formed in a bottom edge thereof. Wires are respectively threaded into each of the vertical grooves, wherein the wires are braided steel wire.

A handheld bottle washer having a handheld body with two flexible opposing sidewalls joined together at a lower joint and at an upper joint and each having an outer surface and an inner surface, wherein the two flexible opposing sidewalls define an enclosed washing aperture with a center diameter separating two opposing inner surfaces of each of the opposing two flexible opposing sidewalls and each of the two flexible opposing sidewalls operably configured to have a static position defining an arcuate shape spanning in a longitudinal direction and a dynamic biased cleaning position with the two opposing sidewalls flexed together inwardly toward the enclosed washing aperture and with a length of the center diameter less than a length of the center diameter when in the static position, and having a plurality of bristles disposed on and radially extending outward from the outer surfaces of each of the two opposing sidewalls.

An apparatus for treating containers includes a transporter that moves containers along a transport direction, a displacer, and a treatment device with two treatment positions. The displacer has three arms that move transverse to the transport direction. The arms are driven independently such that two of the three arms contact bearing points on opposite sides of a container. These two arms move synchronously to displace the container between the transporter and one of the treatment positions.
