Disclosed is a control method of a dishwasher (100) including a tub (2) for receiving objects to be washed, a plurality of spray arms (711, 713, 715) for spraying wash water to the objects, and a steam nozzle (42) for spraying steam to the objects, the control method including a main washing cycle of washing the objects, a rinsing cycle of rinsing the washed objects using wash water, and a drying cycle of drying the objects after the rinsing is completed, wherein the drying cycle includes spraying steam, received from a steam source, to the objects to increase a temperature of the objects (a steam spraying step) and resupplying water to the steam source in order to prevent the steam source from being heated after the steam spraying step (a cooling step).

A method and system are provided that include features for operating an appliance in an odor removal cycle. In one aspect, an appliance has a housing defining a sealable volume and includes an ozone generator, an ozone detection device, and a controller. In an odor removal cycle, the controller causes the ozone generator to inject, at a predetermined injection interval, predefined dosages of ozone into the sealable volume of the appliance. The controller monitors the concentration level within the sealable volume after each injection based on inputs received from the ozone detection device. The controller ascertains when the concentration level reaches a maximum concentration level threshold, and when this occurs, the controller can cease the injections and can activate one or more ozone removal devices to remove the ozone from the sealable volume to a safe level.

A domestic dishwasher includes a wash container which has a loading opening. The loading opening of the wash container can be closed by a door. A suction apparatus is provided to suction steam and/or air, in particular moisture-laden air, escaping from the loading opening. The suction apparatus has at least one inlet window located outside a wet chamber of the wash container.

A household appliance includes a chamber accommodating an object, a door for closing the chamber, a collection module configured to collect a time signal when the door is opened, a controller connected to the collection module, and a function loading module connected to the controller for receiving a control signal from the controller. The controller is configured to receive and analyze the time signal generated by the collection module when the door is opened, count a high-frequency time segment and/or a low-frequency time segment when the door is opened in a predetermined time period, and generate the control signal for controlling operation of the function loading module.

The present invention relates to a conveyor dishwasherwith at least one final rinse zone with at least one final rinse nozzle for spraying final rinse liquid onto washware, and wherein a metering device associated with the final rinse zone is provided for adding a disinfectant to the final rinse liquid in a metered manner. A sensor device is configured to detect the concentration of disinfectant in the final rinse liquid which is sprayed in the final rinse zone. Furthermore, a control device is configured to compare the value of the concentration of disinfectant which is detected by the sensor device with predefinable concentration values and, in the event of excessively high deviations of the concentration of disinfectant from the predefinable concentration values, to interrupt the dishwashing process or to output a warning signal to an operator.

A method for controlling a dishwasher includes: supplying washing water to a sump; rotating an impeller disposed in a washing pump by a washing motor so that the washing water flows into the washing pump from the sump;

operating a heater disposed in the washing pump so as to heat the washing water existing in the washing pump and generate steam to supply to a steam nozzle; and supplying the washing water or steam in the washing pump to the steam nozzle by rotating the impeller at a second set rotational speed lower than a first set rotational speed by the washing motor. The method further includes closing a selector valve, configured to open and close a path between the washing pump and the steam nozzle, when the impeller rotates at the first set rotational speed or higher.

The present invention is an apparatus and a green and economical method for washing and sanitizing cookware including pots, pans and containers suitable for all types of cookware, wherein the washing and sanitization method is a two stage process involving utilization of cold water jet for washing of utensils and heating water for sanitization of the cookware without the use of detergents or chemicals.

Disclosed in the present invention are an energy-saving dishwasher and a control method therefor. The inner container is arranged inside the housing, the inner container is internally provided with a manifold type dish rack for placing dishes and spraying steam to perform steam cleaning on the dishes, and the manifold type dish rack is placed on a supporting frame fixed to the inner container. A water storage tank, a steam/hot water integrated generating device and a water pump are arranged below the inner container, and the steam/hot water integrated generating device includes a generating assembly and a control assembly. The manifold type dish rack is configured to place the dishes and simultaneously sprays steam to clean the dishes. The steam/hot water integrated generating device is configured to generate steam and hot water, heating is performed to generate the steam, and then relative cooling is performed to generate the hot water.

The present disclosure relates to an intelligent positive and negative pressure system and an operation method therefor, and an intelligent positive and negative pressure electric appliance. The system comprises a positive and negative pressure intelligent fresh-keeping refrigerator, a positive and negative pressure intelligent washing machine, a positive and negative pressure dish washing and fruit and vegetable cleaning machine, a positive and negative pressure range hood, a positive and negative pressure baking and frying microwave oven, a positive and negative pressure fresh-keeping compartment container, a positive and negative pressure fresh-keeping warehouse, a positive and negative pressure disinfection machine, and a positive and negative pressure module cabinet. By means of the positive and negative pressure system, a fluid and a carried substance thereof are regulated and controlled by means of positive and negative pressure, so as to affect an object in a specific space in a targeted manner.

A dishwasher includes a case, a sump connected to an inside of the case and collecting washing water, a washing pump receiving washing water from the sump and generating steam, and a steam nozzle connected to the washing pump and spraying steam to the inside of the case. The steam nozzle includes a steam nozzle body having a steam inlet and including a steam accommodating portion accommodating steam therein, a first steam sprayer provided in the steam nozzle body and spraying steam to the inside of the case, and a second steam sprayer provided in the steam nozzle body and disposed at a position farther from the steam inlet than the first steam sprayer, wherein a tunnel flow path penetrating through a lower end of the first steam sprayer is formed to allow steam passing through the tunnel flow path to be introduced into the second steam sprayer.
