20080202899POWER ELECTRONIC SWITCHING DEVICE WITH LAMINATED BUS - A bus system is disclosed for use with switching devices, such as power electronic devices. The system includes generally parallel bus elements that define electrical reference planes, such as for a dc bus. The bus elements are separated from one another by insulative layers, with additional insulative layers being available for separating the system from other circuit components. Portions of the bus elements are extended or exposed to permit connection to the circuit elements, including packaged switching circuits and energy storage or filtering circuits. The bus system may be conformed to a variety of geometric configurations, and substantially reduces parasitic inductance and total loop inductance in the resulting circuitry.08-28-2008
20090120474Dishwasher with Sonic Cleaner - A household dishwasher having a sonic cleaner that propagates sonic waves via a stream of liquid to clean off a utensil.05-14-2009
20100000024APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING LAUNDERING CYCLE BY SENSING WASH AID CONCENTRATION - An automatic washing machine can be operated in accordance with a selected wash cycle by determining a concentration of a wash aid prior to a dispensing of the wash aid into at least one of a tub and a drum, and selecting an operating parameter of the automatic washing machine in response to the determined concentration.01-07-2010
20100000265APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING BULK DISPENSING OF WASH AID BY SENSING WASH AID CONCENTRATION - An automatic treatment machine includes a treatment chamber, a bulk treatment aid dispenser fluidly coupled with the treatment chamber, and optionally a water supply fluidly coupled with at least one of the dispenser and the treatment chamber. A method for dispensing a treatment aid from the bulk treatment aid dispenser into the automatic treatment machine in accordance with a selected treatment cycle includes selecting a treatment cycle, determining a concentration of the treatment aid, determining a volume of the treatment aid to be dispensed based upon the determined concentration, dispensing the determined volume of the treatment aid from the bulk treatment aid dispenser, and initiating the selected treatment cycle.01-07-2010
20100108102DISHWASHER WITH MIST CLEANING - A dishwasher having a liquid spraying system operable in a first mode to spray a focused stream of liquid within the wash chamber, and operable in a second mode to spray a diffused stream of liquid within the wash chamber.05-06-2010
20100154841DISHWASHER WITH SOIL REMOVAL - The invention relates to a dishwasher comprising a tub with a sequester located within the tub to sequester the particles that remain in the tub near a drain outlet.06-24-2010
20100187190CROSS-FLOW FILTRATION SYSTEM - An apparatus and method for filtering working fluid in an appliance with a cross-flow filter located within a recirculation circuit.07-29-2010
20100224223DISHWASHER WITH A DRIVE MOTOR FOR FILTER OR SPRAY ARM - An automatic dishwasher having a rotationally coupled spray arm and filter, with a motor for effecting the relative rotation of the spray arm and filter, wherein one of the rotor and stator is formed by a portion of one of the spray arm assembly and the filter.09-09-2010
20110061682ROTARY DRUM FILTER FOR A DISHWASHING MACHINE - A dishwashing machine includes a sump chamber, a porous sheet enclosing a hollow interior, and a scraper in contact with the porous sheet. A portion of the sheet extends into the sump chamber. The sheet is operable to rotate about an imaginary axis.03-17-2011
