A method for operating a water-bearing household appliance for treating articles, in particular a dishwasher or washing machine, the water-bearing household appliance including a treatment chamber for treating the articles with a washing liquor and a dosing system for dispensing a dosing-amount of detergent provided by a dosing unit, the method comprising: selecting one of a plurality of different treatment cycles, controlling the water-bearing household appliance to perform the selected treatment cycle, actuating the dosing system to dispense the dosing-amount of detergent according to the selected treatment cycle, detecting a sensor signal of the dispensed dosing-amount of detergent, adjusting the selected treatment cycle as a function of the detected sensor signal, and controlling the water-bearing household appliance to perform the adjusted treatment cycle.

Method for operating a water-bearing household appliance and water-bearing household appliance

A dosing unit for use in an automatic dosing system of a water-bearing household appliance, for automatically dosing a dosing amount of a solid detergent, the dosing unit comprising a dosing cartridge for storing a bulk of the solid detergent and a dosing device for separating the dosing amount from the bulk and releasing the separated dosing amount by linearly displacing a sliding element from a separating position to a release position, wherein the dosing device includes a dosing channel, wherein, when the sliding element is in the separating position, the dosing channel is configured for receiving at least the dosing amount from the bulk and intermediately storing the dosing amount in a pre-dosing position, and, when the sliding element is in the release position, the dosing device is configured for releasing the dosing amount intermediately stored in the pre-dosing position.

Dosing unit, water bearing household appliance and method

A dosing unit for use in an automatic dosing system of a water-bearing household appliance for automatically dosing detergent tablets, the dosing unit comprising a storage cartridge for storing a plurality of the detergent tablets and a dosing device for releasing a respective one of the detergent tablets, wherein the storage cartridge includes a tubular section for storing the plurality of detergent tablets ordered in a line one behind the other.

Dosing unit and water-bearing household appliance

A dosing unit for automatically dosing at least one detergent tablet provided by a storage cartridge for storing a plurality of detergent tablets, for use in an automatic dosing system of a water-bearing household appliance, wherein the storage cartridge comprises a container with a bottom side forming an inclination angle with a horizontal direction when the dosing unit is arranged as intended for use, wherein an outlet is formed in the container at a lower end of the bottom side, such that detergent tablets on the bottom side move towards the outlet driven by gravity (G), and wherein a dosing device is attached to the storage cartridge on the outlet, the dosing device including a scoop and a plug, wherein the scoop is configured to separate a detergent tablet from the plurality and transport the separated detergent tablet to a receiving chamber formed in the plug when the scoop is turned in a first turning direction about a rotational axis (X) that is parallel to the bottom side, and the plug is configured to release the detergent tablet from the receiving chamber.

Dosing unit and water-bearing household appliance with an automatic dosing system

The invention relates to a dosing device for dosing a detergent tablet provided by a storage cartridge to which the dosing device is attachable, the dosing device comprising a scoop and a plug, wherein the scoop is configured to pick up a detergent tablet from the storage cartridge, lift the detergent tablet to an opening in the scoop and transport the detergent tablet to a receiving chamber formed in the plug when scoop is turned in a first turning direction about a rotational axis that crosses a gravitational vector, and the plug is configured to release the detergent tablet from the receiving chamber.

Dosing device, storage cartridge, dosing unit and water-bearing household appliance with an automatic dosing system

A household dishwasher includes a washing chamber, a control apparatus for running a washing program from a number of washing programs, a metering system having a supply unit for receiving an individual dose of a first cleaning agent and supplying the individual dose into the washing chamber at a metering point in time while running the washing program, and an automatic metering apparatus for automatically metering a plurality of metering quantities from a supply of a second cleaning agent in the form of a solid material into the washing chamber at the metering point in time, and a sensor apparatus configured to detect a state of the metering system and to emit a sensor signal depending on the detected state of the metering system. The control apparatus runs the washing program depending on the sensor signal.

Dishwasher, method for operating a dishwasher, and computer program product

Dishwasher, in particular household dishwasher, with a washing compartment a control device for carrying out a washing program from a number of washing programs and with an automatic dosing device for automatically dosing a plurality of dosing quantities from a supply a cleaning agent present as a solid in the washing area, the control device for cleaning the automatic dosing device being set up to control the automatic dosing device to switch to a cleaning state and to control the automatic dosing device for cleaning the automatic Dosing device to carry out a specific wash program from the number of wash programs.

A dishwasher includes a washing chamber, and an automatic metering device configured automatically meter a plurality of metering quantities from a supply of cleaning agent in the form of a solid material into the washing chamber. The automatic metering device is held in a vibration-insulated manner.

Dishwasher with an automatic metering device

A household appliance includes a water inlet configured to connect the appliance to an external water supply; a pressure control device configured to prevent water entering the appliance from the water inlet from exceeding atmospheric pressure; a treatment container configured to treat household items with water; and a seal between the pressure control device and the treatment container configured to prevent gas flowing from the treatment container to the pressure control device.
