A laundry treatment composition supply system to supply laundry treatment composition to multiple washing machines. The system can include a first supply container and a second supply container. Each of the supply containers can be operably engaged with a level sensor. Upon a low liquid level signal from a sensor associated with a container, a controller system can switch supply of the laundry treatment composition from the container having a low level to another container. The laundry treatment composition can be pumped from one supply container or the other supply container.

An electronic device includes a camera to capture an image, and a processor to input an image acquired by photographing a detergent container into a trained model to acquire detergent information corresponding to the detergent container, and to guide an amount of detergent dispensed based on washing information corresponding to the detergent information. The trained model is a neural network trained using images of a plurality of detergent containers.

A clothes treating apparatus includes a cabinet, a steam generator configured to generate steam, and a solution storing container configured to store a solution. The clothes treating apparatus also includes a steam spraying portion that is coupled to the steam generator and that is configured to spray steam and a solution spraying portion that is coupled to the solution storing container and that is configured to spray the solution. The steam spraying portion is configured to spray steam to control air pressure at the outlet of the solution spraying portion.

The present disclosure discloses a washing additive automatic delivery device and a drum washing machine. The drum washing machine comprises a box, a container for accommodating washing additive and a mounting part for holding the container, wherein the box includes a mounting base, the mounting part is arranged on the mounting base, and the container is arranged in the mounting part in a detachable manner. In the present disclosure, the mounting part is arranged on the mounting base, to save the upper space of a washing machine and increase the capacity of the container, moreover, the container is convenient for supplement of washing additive or the container can be taken out to supplement the washing additive.

A washing machine appliance as provided herein, may include a cabinet, a tub, a fluid additive dispenser, and a controller. The tub may be disposed within the cabinet. The fluid additive dispenser may include a housing, a dispenser drawer, a water supply conduit, a conduit water valve, and an optical sensor. The optical sensor may be mounted to a housing and directed at a pod compartment. The controller may be operably coupled to the fluid additive dispenser and may be configured to initiate a washing operation. The washing operation may include receiving an image signal from the optical sensor, determining a pod characteristic within the pod compartment based on the received image signal, and directing water to the pod compartment based on the determined pod characteristic.

A drawer of a clothes treating machine includes a drawer frame that extends in a lengthwise direction and is configured to be inserted into and drawn out form a housing of the clothes treating machine, and a storage container that is configured to be inserted into the drawer frame and to accommodate a clothes treatment agent therein. The storage container includes a check valve that protrudes from a first side of the storage container and is configured to selectively allow the clothes treatment agent to be discharged from the storage container. The drawer frame includes a rear end portion configured to accommodate at least a portion of the check valve therein, and a partition member disposed at the rear end portion and configured to restrict movement of the check valve in an up and down direction.

The present disclosure concerns a method performed by at least one device, including: acquiring location data indicative of a location of a device which may be placed in a liquid- and/or gas-carrying household appliance; determining treatment chamber data indicative of a conclusion as to whether or not the at least one device is placed in a treatment chamber of the household appliance, the treatment chamber data being determined at least partially based on the acquired location data; and outputting or causing the output of the determined treatment chamber data. Furthermore, the present disclosure concerns a device and a system.

A microwave oven system, which includes: a microwave oven having a controllable power setting; a thermal camera at the microwave oven and which provides temperature data of one or more cooking items in the microwave oven; an optical camera at the microwave oven and which provides optical data of the one or more cooking items in the microwave oven; and a controller. A processor is configured to: receive the optical data, identify using a machine learning model, the one or more cooking items and their quantities at the microwave using the received optical data of the optical camera, access a recipe data bank, determine, using the recipe data bank, one or more steps for cooking of the one or more cooking items in the microwave oven.

The present disclosure discloses a washing additive automatic delivery device and a drum washing machine. The drum washing machine comprises a box, a container for accommodating washing additive and a mounting part for holding the container, wherein the box includes a mounting base, the mounting part is arranged on the mounting base, and the container is arranged in the mounting part in a detachable manner. In the present disclosure, the mounting part is arranged on the mounting base, to save the upper space of a washing machine and increase the capacity of the container, moreover, the container is convenient for supplement of washing additive or the container can be taken out to supplement the washing additive.

A washer system, including: a washer having controllable operational parameters; an optical camera which provides optical data at the washer; a controller configured to: communicate with the washer and the optical camera, receive the optical data from the optical camera, and control the operational parameters of the washer. The washer system includes a processor configured to: receive the optical data, identify, using a machine learning model, types of laundry and quantities of the laundry loaded in the washer using received optical data from the optical camera and data sets stored in a data bank, and communicate with the controller to control the washer to operate using one or more specified operational parameters based on the types of laundry and the quantities of laundry.
