Abstract: A food preparation assembly for use in cleaning food products generally includes a tank for holding washing fluid for use in cleaning food products positioned within the tank, and a pump in fluidic communication with the tank to provide movement of the washing fluid within the tank for use in cleaning the food products when positioned within the tank. A processing module is configured to receive settings from a user for cleaning the food products, and to monitor and adjust, as necessary, parameters of the washing fluid based on the user input settings. The processing module is also configured to report and/or store measured values of the parameters of the washing fluid in addition to select user defined input information (e.g., user defined wash settings, etc.). Labels may also be generated indicative of completion of cleaning of the food products by the food preparation assembly.

Abstract: A kitchenware washing assembly in one embodiment generally includes a tank having an inside for holding fluid for washing kitchenware, and a heater for heating fluid within the inside of the tank. At least one securing device releasably secures the heater within the tank. The securing device has a releasing portion located within the tank that allows the securing device to be released solely from within the tank. In this embodiment, the heater can thus be removed from and/or installed within the tank without having to crawl under the tank.

Abstract: A kitchenware washing assembly includes at least one wall defining at least a portion of a tank for holding fluid for washing kitchenware. The kitchenware washing assembly also includes at least one pump and at least one chamber in fluid communication with the tank. The kitchenware washing assembly is formed such that at least part of the chamber is formed unitary with the wall of the tank.

Abstract: A rack system is provided that is suitable, for example, for installation to a kitchenware washing assembly. The kitchenware washing assembly may include a tank for holding fluid for washing kitchenware, and walls defining the tank and being arranged to hold the fluid in the tank. The rack system generally includes a mounting fixture connectable to the tank of the kitchenware washing assembly, and a rack connectable to the mounting fixture for holding the kitchenware in the tank. The rack is adjustable relative to the mounting fixture between a first position in which the rack is connected to the mounting fixture, and a second position in which the rack is connected to the mounting fixture.

Abstract: A kitchenware washing assembly includes a tank for holding fluid for washing kitchenware, and at least one pump. The kitchenware washing assembly can also include at least one outlet chamber for dispensing fluid into the tank, and at least one intake chamber for receiving fluid from the tank. The kitchenware washing assembly may also include at least one intake cover for separating the intake chamber from the tank. The intake cover can include a plurality of inlets and at least one projection that extends into the tank. In addition, either or both of the outlet chamber and/or intake chamber can be configured to have positive drainage from the chamber into the tank. Further, the kitchenware washing assembly may include one or more detachable outlet covers configured to cover the outlet chamber. The detachable outlet cover can include a plurality of outlets for directing fluid into the tank.
