Abstract:
A dishwasher apparatus includes a dish rack having a wire member, and a feed tube for a spray arm rotatably disposed beneath the dish rack. An intensive washing zone is provided in a region of the dish rack, the intensive washing zone including a rod-shaped pipe element attached to the wire member and having an outlet nozzle. A pipe branch for the intensive washing zone is provided, the pipe branch being disposed in a region of the feed tube and communicating with the pipe element via a T-piece. An actuator is provided that cooperates with the pipe element so as to enable the intensive washing zone to be activated and deactivated.
Abstract:
A method for dispensing a liquid or pasty cleaning agent and a liquid or pasty bleaching agent into a wash tub of a household dishwasher that includes a housing and a dispensing system disposed in the housing. The dispensing system separately stores and discharges the cleaning agent and bleaching agent. The method includes providing the dispensing system with respective reservoirs for each of the cleaning agent and the bleaching agent that have different capacities from each other. Each of the capacities are larger than needed for a single wash cycle. A first quantity of the cleaning agent and a second quantity of the bleaching agent are dispensed during a wash cycle, and the ratio of the dispensed quantities corresponds to the ratio of the capacities of the respective reservoirs.
Abstract:
A dishwasher includes a housing, a dish rack movably disposed in the housing, and a first and a second roller respectively disposed on opposite sides of the dish rack. The first and second rollers are configured to movably support the dish rack on respective first and second running surfaces. A respective angle of inclination of at least a respective portion of the first and second running surfaces is adjustable so as to enable the dish rack to automatically move outward from the housing.
Abstract:
A composite member for a vehicle body a method for manufacturing such a composite member, in particular, for a vehicle roof, with a fiber-free outer skin (12) and a fiber-reinforced support layer (16), which is deposited at the inner side of the outer skin in order to support the outer skin. The side of the support layer (16) that faces away from the outer skin (12) is provided with a fiber-reinforced reinforcing layer (18) for reinforcing the support layer. The reinforcing layer has a higher fiber concentration than the support layer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to plastic moldings that are prepared from optionally filled polyurethanes. The plastic molding of the present invention exhibit high tenacity, flexural strength and heat stability. This invention also relates to a process for the preparation of these plastic moldings and specifically to a process for the production of large parts comprising these plastic moldings.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to composite materials made of at least one composite layer of a polyurethane and of a second composite layer which is directly bonded to the first layer and which consists of a thermoplastic material that is different from the polyurethane of layer A). The polyurethane material of layer A) is characterized by a residual content of free reaction components containing ether groups of no more than 400 ppm, and preferably of no more than 100 ppm. The invention also relates to a process for the production of these composite materials and to a method of their use as materials in motor vehicles.
Abstract:
Novel powders useful in the slush molding process are produced by reacting an emulsion of either an isocyanate or an isocyanate reactive material with either an isocyanate reactive material or an isocyanate, depending upon the nature of the component used to make the emulsion in the presence of an at least partially blocked isocyanate and an organic carrier. The final reaction product is subsequently removed from the carrier.
Abstract:
A dishwasher includes a housing having a washing chamber with an access opening. An access door is operable to close the access opening in a fluid tight manner. A movable loading unit is disposable in the washing chamber and is at least partially removable from the washing chamber through the access opening. The loading unit includes an illumination device.
