Claims (7)
- Detergent dispensing device including at least one detergent dispensing chamber for receiving, in measured doses, powder or liquid detergent or fabric conditioner, which can be flushed out by means of water introduced via a flushing opening in the detergent dispensing chamber extending to the washing container, in which the flushing opening is arranged in the base of the detergent dispensing chamber and in which the water can be supplied via an inlet pipe and in which a valve cap of a valve arrangement can be displaced to a limited extent on the inlet pipe, said cap closing the flushing opening in a lower initial position on the basis of its own inherent weight and being raisable by means of the supplied water into an upper operative position, which exposes the flushing opening,
characterised in thatthe inlet pipe (3) is introduced vertically into the detergent dispensing chamber (1) from above and stops at a distance from the flushing opening (2),in that the end of the inlet pipe (3) is closed off by a reversing device (3a), which has a greater diameter than the diameter of the inlet pipe andin that the valve cap (5) is designed as a hollow body with a stepped diameter, said hollow body accommodating, with stepped parts, the diameters of the flushing opening (2), the reversing device (3a) and the inlet pipe (3). - Detergent dispensing device according to Claim 1 characterised in that,the reversing device (3a) is designed as a separate part from the inlet pipe (3), said part being connectable, after pushing up of the valve (5) on to the inlet pipe, to the latter.
- Detergent dispensing device according to Claim 1 or 2, characterised in that,the inlet pipe(3) is attached to a lid covering the detergent dispensing chamber (1) and extends into a channel (6) of the lid, andin that the water can be introduced into the channel (6) via a free air-gap.
- Detergent dispensing device according to one of the Claims 1 to 3, characterised in that,the detergent dispensing chamber (1) is surrounded by a shell (13), which is provided, beneath the flushing opening (2) of the detergent dispensing chamber (1), with a draining opening (10) and with the water inlet of the detergent dispensing chamber (1) facing away from a feeder opening (9) for the detergent or fabric conditioner discharging into the detergent dispensing chamber(1).
- Detergent dispensing device according to Claims 3 or 4,
characterised in that,the upward-opening channel (6) of the lid is provided with side openings, andin that the lid (4) has lid-jets (12) outwith the channel (6). - Detergent dispensing device according to Claims 1 to 5 characterised in that,it is arranged on the underside of a closing-flap (11) of a washing machine which can be loaded from above.
- Detergent dispensing device according to claim 6 characterised in that,the closing-flap (11) is hinged on the side facing the water supply, andin that the detergent dispensing device is connectable or connected to the lid (4) and the detergent dispensing chamber with the closing-flap (11).
