  • Publication number: 20130248745
    Abstract: A gas valve unit for setting a gas volume flow supplied to a gas burner of a gas appliance includes a valve housing, and an actuation pin having an operating segment which projects from the valve housing. Received in the valve housing is a shutoff valve which is configured for actuation by axially displacing the actuation pin, and at least two on-off valves which are configured for actuation by rotating the actuation pin. The shutoff valve has a movable shutoff element. A deflection device converts an axial movement of the actuation pin into an axial movement of the shutoff element of the shutoff valve essentially at a right angle thereto.

  • Publication number: 20130228197
    Abstract: A dishwasher includes a plurality of water circuits in which rinsing liquid is circulated according to a program control unit. The circulation of the rinsing liquid results in the passage of the rinsing liquid through at least one filter element that captures dirt entrained with the rinsing liquid. The filter element may include a plurality of thread elements disposable between a dirt capture state in which the thread elements are under tension, whereupon the thread elements intercept dirt entrained with the rinsing liquid while the rinsing liquid passes through the thread elements, and a relaxed state, in which the thread elements are disposed under less tension than in the dirt capture state to facilitate release of intercepted dirt from the thread elements, whereby the at least one filter element can be cleared of intercepted dirt.

  • Publication number: 20130220374
    Abstract: A method for operating a water-conducting domestic appliance, such as a dishwasher, includes filling the water-conducting domestic appliance with a minimum amount of filling water that is circulated by a pump, and checking a water flow diverter for malfunctions and determining from an operational parameter of an electromotor that drives the pump whether the pump runs smoothly, thereby indicating whether the quantity of filling water corresponds to at least a nominal quantity of filling water. When the water flow diverter is not malfunctioning, the pump is again checked for smooth running or a refilling step is carried out to increase the minimum amount of filling water. Conversely, when the water flow diverter is malfunctioning, the check for smooth running or the refilling step are omitted.
