  • dispensers wherein cleaning agents are stored can store a sufficient amount of cleaning agent for more than one washing process and comprise separate divisions for different cleaning agents.
  • Lids are provided on the dispenser so that the users can fill in the cleaning agents, and the user can open the lids and fill in the cleaning agent.
  • the user mixes the cleaning agents to be filled in and accidentally fills in wrong cleaning agents into the divisions, it can be a cumbersome process to empty the dispenser by means of the lids on the dispenser since cleaning agent may flow from the division that is not desired to be emptied while emptying the dispenser with more than one division by turning it upside down.
  • a washing machine comprising a container for storing liquid washing agent is disclosed.
  • a washing machine comprising a container for storing liquid washing agent is disclosed.
  • Patent US 6 327 729 B1 discloses a washing machine lid with a fluid chamber on its lower surface.
  • the fluid chamber has a dispensing opening in which a removable valve is disposed that is operated by a user.
  • Patent Application GB 1 107 344 discloses a washing machine that comprises first and second external auxiliary chambers for receiving washing and rinsing additives respectively.
  • the second chamber is connected by a valve with the main chamber of the washing machine, wherein said valve may be manually or automatically operated.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a washer comprising a cleaning agent dispenser wherein ease of utilization is provided.
  • the washer realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof comprises an emptying apparatus that enables the cleaning agents in the dispenser to be emptied by the valve being triggered by the user.
  • the emptying apparatus of the present invention enables the cleaning agent in the dispenser to be discharged without being wasted, spilled over or scattered when the cleaning agents in the dispenser are desired to be emptied on request or in cases such as the user accidentally putting softener into the liquid detergent division, etc.
  • the user desires to empty the dispenser, he/she discharges the dispenser by using the emptying apparatus by means of the valve.
  • the emptying apparatus serves as a switch in this case and opens the valve.
  • the emptying apparatus is comprised of an end, a body and a handle. The user grasps the emptying apparatus from the handle and discharges the dispenser by inserting the end into the valve.
  • the emptying apparatus is mounted to the rear wall of the dispenser. Therefore, problems such as the emptying apparatus getting lost or forgotten at some other place are not encountered.
  • a clamp is provided on the rear wall of the dispenser and a support is provided on the handle of the emptying apparatus so that the emptying apparatus can be mounted onto the rear wall of the dispenser.
  • the handle is attached by means of the clamp and the support is seated onto the clamp.
  • a pin is provided on the rear wall of the dispenser and a hole is arranged on the emptying apparatus.
  • the emptying apparatus is fastened to the dispenser by means of the clamp, the hole is fitted over the pin and the emptying apparatus is enabled to be tightly fixed on the rear wall of the dispenser.
  • two columns facing each other are provided on the body of the emptying apparatus.
  • the area where the columns join forms the hole and when the emptying apparatus is mounted to the dispenser, the columns stretch and enable the pin to be seated into the hole.
  • the emptying apparatus is enabled to be rigidly mounted to the dispenser.
  • the emptying apparatus comprises a liquid flow path that is attached to the emptying apparatus, through which a liquid can flow.
  • the user desires to empty the dispenser, he/she mounts the emptying apparatus to the valve on the dispenser and enables the cleaning agents to be easily transferred to another receptacle through the liquid flow path.
  • the emptying apparatus of the present invention is suitable to be used in washing machines, laundry washer/dryers or dishwashers.
  • the liquid cleaning agents in the divisions of the dispenser can be easily discharged by means of the emptying apparatus without affecting the cleaning agents in other divisions.
  • the valve on the dispenser is opened by means of the emptying apparatus and the user is enabled to empty the dispenser without getting his/her hands dirty thanks to the liquid flow path.
  • the emptying apparatus is attached to the rear wall of the dispenser by means of the clamp and the pin disposed on the rear wall of the dispenser, thus the problem of getting lost is solved.
  • the washer comprises a dispenser (1) having more than one division (2) wherein cleaning agents are stored and at least one valve (3) disposed on the dispenser (1).
  • the dispenser (1) comprises at least two divisions (2) extending along the length of the dispenser (1) for liquid cleaning agents such as liquid detergent, softener etc.
  • the divisions (2) wherein liquid cleaning agents are stored, can store cleaning agents for a large number of washing processes, for example in the amount to be used in 50 washing processes.
  • the liquid cleaning agents are mixed into the wash water by means of the valve (3).
  • the washer of the present invention comprises an emptying apparatus (4) that enables the cleaning agents in the dispenser (1) to be discharged by the valve (3) being triggered by the user.
  • the user can open the valve (3) by using the emptying apparatus (4) and discharge the liquid cleaning agents in the dispenser (1).
  • the emptying apparatus (4) comprises an end (5), a body (6) and a handle (7).
  • the user can grasp the emptying apparatus (4) from the handle (7) and discharge the dispenser (1) by inserting the end (5) into the valve (3) without getting his/her hands dirty.
  • the emptying apparatus (4) is mounted to the rear wall of the dispenser (1). In this case, the user does not see the emptying apparatus (4) while filling in the cleaning agents and easily access the emptying apparatus (4) when required.
  • the washer comprises a support (8) disposed on the emptying apparatus (4) and a clamp (10) disposed on the rear wall of the dispenser (1).
  • the support (8) is seated onto the clamp (10) and the handle (7) is attached to the dispenser (1) by means of the clamp (10).
  • the user can conceal the emptying apparatus (4) when not in use by mounting it to the rear wall of the dispenser (1).
  • the washer comprises a hole (9) arranged on the emptying apparatus (4) and a pin (11) disposed on the rear wall of the dispenser (1).
  • the hole (9) is fitted over the pin (11) and enables the emptying apparatus (4) to stay on the dispenser (1) without falling off due to shakes occurring while the washer is operating.
  • the washer comprises two columns (12) that are disposed on the emptying apparatus (4) and that grip the pin (11) when the emptying apparatus (4) is attached to the dispenser (1).
  • the two columns (12) are joined so as to form a hole (9) in the middle thereof.
  • the emptying apparatus (4) comprises a liquid flow path (13) that is attached to the emptying apparatus (4) for liquids to flow.
