  • Publication number: 20220235538
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and techniques for cleaning sinks and dishes are provided. In some embodiments, a cleaning system comprises at least one fluid supply, at least one opening in a side wall of a sink basin, and at least one nozzle positioned along an exterior of the sink basin. The nozzle is configured to receive fluid from the fluid supply, and dispense fluid through an opening in a side wall of the sink basin to an interior surface of the sink basin. In some embodiments, the nozzle is configured to dispense fluid to the interior of a sink basin, such that substantially all surfaces of the interior of the sink basin are covered with a thin layer of fluid. In some embodiments, nozzle dispensing angle, duration of a cleaning cycle, flow rate or amount of dispensing fluid, or activation of a cleaning cycle may be manually or automatically controlled.

  • Patent number: 11391024
    Abstract: A faucet (102) is provided having a faucet body (106) and a faucet head (108), wherein the faucet head (108) comprises a first outlet (110, 112) and a second outlet (110, 112). The faucet is configured such that manual rotation of the faucet head (108) causes the faucet to toggle between a first mode in which fluid is dispensed from the first outlet and a second mode in which fluid is dispensed from the second outlet. Manual rotation of the faucet head may cause one or more valves to be physically/mechanically and/or electronically controlled to control flow of fluid to toggle between the different modes. One fluid outlet may be configured to dispense a first kind of fluid while the other fluid outlet may be configured to dispense a second kind of fluid.
