    Abstract: The present invention provides apparatus (100, 200, 300) for cleaning an item. The apparatus comprises: a perforated member (103, 203, 303) for supporting an item to be cleaned; at least one upper nozzle (101a, 101b, 201a. 201b, 301) provided above the perforated member, directed in a downward direction, and for producing at least one first jet of fluid (104a, 104b, 204a, 204b, 304) to impinge upon the item when supported by the perforated member; and at least one lower nozzle (102, 202a, 202b, 302) provided beneath the perforated member, directed in an upward direction, and for producing at least one second jet of fluid (106, 206a, 206b, 306) to impinge upon the item when supported by the perforated member. The apparatus is configured such that when the at least one first jet and the at least one second jet are produced, the vertical component of a first jet force acting on the item to be cleaned from the at least one first jet is greater than the vertical component of a second jet force acting on the item to be cleaned from the at least one second jet.

    Abstract: Methods and devices for cleaning heads of tubular instruments, such as endoscopes, are disclosed. A cleaning apparatus can include a receiving block for receiving an instrument head. A clamp can be used to secure the tube of the tubular instrument while also establishing a watertight seal. A nozzle assembly underneath the receiving block can include a nozzle that directs a stream of fluid onto the instrument head. The nozzle assembly can be rotatable about an axis of rotation, and optionally slidable along the axis of rotation. Extent of rotation and sliding movement can be limited (e.g., via one or more stops). Through movement of the nozzle assembly, the stream of fluid can be directed into various openings and crevices of the instrument head, thus permitting a quick and easy way to thoroughly clean such instrument heads.

    Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Desinfektion einer Bearbeitungsumgebung (1) unter Einsatz eines Cobots (2) im Zusammenwirken mit einem menschlichen Bearbeiter (3), wobei der Cobot (2) über einen Manipulator (4) mit mindestens einem Endeffektor (5, 6) zum Desinfizieren von Objekten (7) der Bearbeitungsumgebung (1 ), über eine Antriebsanordnung (8) zum Bewegen des Cobots (2) sowie über eine Sensoranordnung (9) verfügt, mittels welcher objektbezogene Sensordaten von mindestens einem Objekt (7) der Bearbeitungsumgebung (1) ermittelt werden, wobei das Objekt (7) in einer Arbeitsroutine gemäß einem mittels einer Systemsteuerung (10) festgelegten Behandlungsplan bearbeitet wird. Es wird vorgeschlagen, dass mittels der Systemsteuerung (10) in einer Planungsroutine gemäß einer vorgegebenen Planungsvorschrift anhand der objektbezogenen Sensordaten, anhand von auf die Bearbeitungsumgebung (1) bezogenen Umgebungsparametern sowie anhand von Bearbeiterdaten des menschlichen Bearbeiters (3) der Behandlungsplan für das Objekt (7) festgelegt wird.
