Abstract

Abstract The washing chamber of a dishwashing machine is divided in two zones, one for dishes, glasses and the like, the other for metallic saucepans and the like; the jets of solution in both zones are fed from the same source, and the jets in the first zone are closed automatically when the temperature of the solution reaches a certain degree, so that the solution is successively sprayed at a higher temperature and higher pressure only on the metallic saucepans.
