Abstract: An automated cleaning machine may include one or more short cleaning cycles in which the duration of a cleaning cycle is shortened relative to the duration of a default cleaning cycle. During a short cleaning cycle, other cleaning cycle parameters may also be adjusted to ensure that the articles subjected to the short cleaning cycle are adequately cleaned and sanitized. For example, the wash temperature, rinse temperature, and/or cleaning product amounts or concentrations, may be adjusted to account for the shortened duration of the cleaning cycle. The automated cleaning machine may further include one or more short cycle mode(s) during which short cleaning cycle parameters are used and one or more default cycle mode(s) during which default cleaning cycle parameters are used.

Abstract: An automated cleaning machine includes a trained cleaning outcome classifier that automatically classifies or scores cleaning outcomes for a cleaning machine using machine learning techniques. The cleaning outcome classifier may be trained on training data comprising a plurality of training inputs and a known output for each of the plurality of training inputs. Each of the plurality of training inputs may include one or more cleaning process parameters corresponding to a cleaning process executed by a cleaning machine executed during a training phase. The known output for each training input may include a cleaning outcome classification or score. The cleaning outcome of a novel cleaning process may then be classified or scored with the trained cleaning outcome classifier based on one or more cleaning process parameters corresponding to the novel cleaning process.

Abstract: A fluid-driven chemical product dispensing system dispenses fluid chemical product concentrates. The dispensing system includes a fluid drive unit powered by flow of a fluid, such as a diluent, and a pump which delivers the fluid chemical product concentrate from a supply to a destination. Upon exit from the fluid drive unit, the diluent is also delivered to the destination, where it mixes with the dispensed fluid chemical product concentrate to form a use solution. The dilution ratio of the volume of fluid chemical product concentrate dispensed per unit time versus the volume of diluent exiting the drive unit per unit time is constant over a defined range of diluent flow rates.
