Description

Detergent comprehensive toilet bowl
The present invention relates to a toilet bowl with cleaning agent for attachment to a toilet bowl, a manufacturing method, a use and a toilet bowl and detergent comprehensive set.
A large part of the known piece-shaped cleaning agents are so-called "rim blocks", which are usually attached to the edge ("rim") of the toilet in cup or cage-like containers, which are referred to below as toilet bowls. The toilet bowls generally have a first and a second wall, between these walls, the cleaning agent is arranged. One of the cupboard walls has its visible side in the suspended state in the interior of the toilet bowl. The basket has inlet and outlet openings for the rinse water. The agent in the basket is overflowed by the rinse water during each rinse. As a result, a small proportion of the cleaning agent is dissolved with the release of surfactants, fragrances, etc., with each rinse, which then the desired cleaning of the toilet bowl and the toilet sump and the desired scent are achieved.
In general, the detergents have fragrances and are colored for a visually pleasing appearance.
The demands of consumers for the visual effect of cleaning and fragrancing products for the sanitary sector are constantly increasing. The funds should not only clean and scent the room, but at the same time be designed visually appealing in a modern design.
To give toilet cleaners a pleasing appearance, toilet cleaners are also offered with colored gel phases. Tricolor detergents with two differently colored gel phases in red and blue and one detergent tablet phase in white are also known, for example, from the EU design patent 000748975-0009.
In addition to these toilet cleaners with different colors that are offered in appropriate baskets, toilet bowls have become known in recent years, which contain several detergents in different colors, which serve not only a visually appealing exterior, but the consumer also different ingredients and To visualize functions.
The individual cleaning agents may, for example, be disc-shaped, spherical or cube-shaped and are often in two changing colors, for example in the form of individual pink and blue spheres (in the color sequence pink-blue-pink-blue) according to EU design patent 001973579-0003 or in the form of discs of different colors, which are produced by extrusion or tabletting processes.
Most such different colored individual detergent tablets, which are stored in the basket, extruded from powdery raw materials, but due to the open-pored and rough surface leads to high scattering coefficients of the detergent tablet formulation and thus to pale colors.
Although such toilet bowls with the different colored individual agents look visually appealing, however, the production of the individual differently colored cleaning agents and the filling of the cups with the individual differently colored cleaning agents are expensive. The cost of producing and keeping cleaning agents in different colors is also considerable, especially since the production plant has to be shut down and cleaned for each different-colored batch.
Furthermore, it is known to produce toilet bowls in an injection molding process, wherein a label is inserted into the empty injection mold and then over-injected with the injection molding material.
This method requires a high technical complexity and is therefore economical only for large quantities. In addition, special systems are required.
From WO 2016/040341 A1 a toilet bowl with a plurality of individual chambers is known, wherein the individual chambers can be filled with different agents. In order to prevent evaporation of perfume or the entry of moisture, the chambers are provided with a lid, which is removed before hanging in the toilet.
The object of the present invention is to provide a toilet bowl with detergent, which meets the wishes of the consumer to a visually appealing, special design and is easy and inexpensive to produce.
This object is achieved in that in the detergent comprehensive toilet bowl between the detergent and the first and / or second basket wall a Einlegerblatt is provided which points with its visible side toward the interior of the toilet bowl and carries visible information for the consumer, wherein the liner sheet covers at least a portion of the surface of the cleaning agent.
The fact that according to the invention a Einlegerblatt is provided between the detergent and the basket wall, the Einlegerblatt covers at least a portion of the surface of the detergent (since it stands between the detergent and the basket wall) and carries a visible to the consumer information, the basket with the Cleaning agents in a simple manner by appropriate information on the depositor sheet such as images, images, colors, texts, comics, etc. are made visually appealing.
According to the present invention, it is no longer the cleaning agent itself but rather the visually appealing insert sheet that is the "eye-catcher" of the detergent-filled basket, which can require the complex and cost-intensive steps required for coloring, multicolouring or an otherwise attractive appearance of the cleaning agent are to be saved. The fact that the essential design element is now determined by the Einlegerblatt and no longer by the appearance of the cleaning agents, simpler and cheaper detergent formulations can be used, for example, have no dyes and consist of a standard formulation and simple shapes.
In accordance with the invention, visually pleasing cleaning agents comprising toilet bowls are provided without having to color the cleaning agents for an attractive appearance with dyes, in addition the unwanted colored streaks in the toilet bowl are avoided, which are caused by delayed release from the basket dripping down colored detergent solutions, since the compositions of the invention no longer need to be colored.
As a result of the Einlegerblattes invention can be completely dispensed with dyes in the cleaning agents, not only costs can be saved, but also the entry of dyes into nature can be reduced, which is environmentally friendly.
The saving of dyes is a great advantage, especially with regard to the detergent tablets pressed from powders, because the tablets compressed from powders must use very high dye concentrations due to the scattering coefficient of the powders in order to obtain a strong color.
Also can be conveyed by the design of the Einlegerblattes the impression of several cleaning agents, in the toilet bowl, however, only an elongated detergent are inserted. Compared to a basket with four different cleaning agents, it is thus possible to save three times the cutting of the cleaning agent and the sorting of three additional agents into the basket, despite the visualization of four cleaning agents.
Now that the appearance of the product is essentially determined by the Einlegerblatt, the structure of the basket can be simplified. Colored baskets with special shapes are no longer required and can be replaced with simply constructed, generally transparent baskets. This also saves costs and further simplifies the manufacturing process.
The insert sheets according to the invention are also distinguished by the fact that they are simple and can be produced individually and in a large number of variants.
In the context of the invention, the term "insert sheet" is understood to mean a flat or three-dimensionally formed part which can be inserted into the toilet bowl between the basket wall and the cleaning agent and is made of a thin sheet material such as a foil.
The insert sheet is preferably inserted loosely between the basket wall and the cleaning agent. So it is not connected to the basket wall or the detergent.
Preferably, the insert sheet is in one piece.
It is essential that the Einlegerblatt remains during use of the toilet bowl in the toilet bowl, because only so it can provide during the period of use for a visually pleasing appearance of the toilet bowl. It is generally when the toilet bowl is hung in the toilet bowl, between the cup wall, which faces the toilet inside, and the detergent. The information on the insert sheet is generally visible to the consumer when the basket is properly hung in the toilet bowl. The insert sheet remains in the basket at least until the detergent has been completely rinsed off. It can of course be exchanged by the consumer.
After the insert sheet is loosely placed in the toilet bowl, water and air can pass between the liner sheet and the detergent.
It is also essential that the insert sheet does not cover the cleaning agent airtight and / or liquid-tight. Thus, the toilet bowl can be hung directly into the toilet bowl without prior detachment of the insert sheet and the detergent will be rinsed by the flushing water gradually.
In a further variant, the insert sheet may be a flat or three-dimensional molded part, which may be made of a thin sheet material such as a foil or a plate.
As far as the insert sheet is formed three-dimensional, it preferably has with the curvature in the direction of the toilet bowl. However, the curvature may also point in the direction of the cleaning agent.
Basically, the insert sheet (without the information) may be transparent, partially translucent or completely opaque.
In a first preferred embodiment, the insert sheet is a cut plastic film printed with information such as a pleasing motif and between the side-by-side or side-by-side shapes following the shape of the visible side of the detergent or a plurality of detergents Cleaning agents and a basket wall - is arranged. This plastic film has a certain flexibility, so that it can be inserted, suspended or adjusted in the basket and so dimensionally stable and stiff that it forms a stretched visible surface in front of the detergent until consumption of the detergent. The plastic film is printed with an "information", for example a color, a color mixture, a picture, a work of art, a comic, a text, a photograph, a motif or the like.
In principle, the possibilities of the print motifs on the insert sheet are far greater than the color variants and motifs which offer colored cleaning agents. Thus, for example, filigree motifs can also be selected with the insert sheet according to the invention.
After the insert sheet is visible from the visible side of the basket, the insert sheet is, so to speak, the "eye-catcher", the essential design element of the basket.
After such films can be easily cut and printed, a variety of different visually appealing individually-looking filled baskets can be provided in a simple and cost-effective manner. Thus, the toilet bowls can also be customized customized.
Due to the ease of manufacture of the liner sheets, an immense variety of individual shapes and motifs, e.g. seasonal motives (Easter eggs, pumpkins, St. Nicholas, sledges), sports motifs such as footballs, colors and gradients, texts, jokes, etc., possible.
In a further preferred variant, the inlay sheet is transparent or substantially transparent except for a printed or inked area with the information, so that one can see through the transparent areas of the insert sheet onto the cleaning agent.
It is also possible to visualize the perfuming of the toilet again on the insert sheet, for example in the form of an orange, when the cleaning agent is perfumed with orange fragrances, or to repeat the device color of the toilet again in the insert sheet.
In a special embodiment, the insert sheet can be individually printed by the consumer himself, for. B. with a laser printer, and be inserted together with the detergent in the toilet bowl. In this variant, the toilet bowl, the detergent or the cleaning agent and at least one printable Einlegerblatt be offered as a set to be printed individually by the customer can.
Of course, the insert sheet can also be made of other materials such as metal foils or preferably flat composite materials that printed, punched or otherwise by an attractive surface "information" wear configured.
The liner should preferably be water-insoluble so that it can provide a pleasing appearance over the life of the basket and will not gradually dissolve in the purge stream.
The ink of the information of the insert sheet may be both water-insoluble and water-soluble. A combination of water-soluble and water-insoluble ink is possible.
If water-soluble ink is used, it will dissolve over time, i. the information fades as the consumption of the detergent increases. If a combination of a water-soluble and a water-insoluble ink is selected, the motif changes with the number of rinses and towards the end of the life of the agent is then, for example, only the water-insoluble pressure to see. Thus, over the use of different printing inks, a change over the life of the agent information can be obtained.
Generally, the insert sheet can also consist of several parts. These can be arranged arbitrarily, for example next to each other or one above the other. The insert sheet can also have kinks or folds or perforations.
The insert sheet should not stick so that it can simply be inserted into and removed from the basket and replaced with another insert sheet, for example, if a different look is desired.
In one variant, however, the insert sheet can be provided with a reversible adhesive coating or be self-adhesive on one side, so that it can be glued to the inside of the basket wall and then peeled off again.
Alternatively, the inner wall of the basket can also be provided with a reversible adhesive coating or be self-adhesive in this area, from which the deposit sheet can be removed again.
In any case, the Einlegerblatt must not go with the basket wall insoluble, in particular no cohesive, compound.
The Einlegerblatt is an independently manageable part that forms an indissoluble unit neither together with the detergent nor together with the basket.
The insert sheet should be an independently manageable part between the basket wall and the cleaning agent. This can be achieved by the depositor sheet rests with its lower edge on the basket bottom or stands up and is supported against the detergent and / or the cup wall. However, this can also be achieved by inserting the insert sheet with an upwardly facing edge into a receptacle located on the basket wall. Also, the insert sheet may have openings with which it is impaled on protruding lugs on the basket wall. Other removable fasteners of the insert sheet between the basket wall and the cleaning agent are also possible. Of course, the required dimensional stability of the liner sheet also depends on how it is positioned between the basket wall and the cleaning agent and whether it is erected or suspended.
In order to ensure the visibility of the liner sheet in the basket, the basket may either be transparent, and thus the liner sheet may be completely visible from the visible side through the transparent cup, or the first wall of the cup which faces the toilet bowl interior in the toilet bowl fastened state, has a (larger) opening, through which the insert sheet or a large part of the insert sheet is then visible to the consumer. The size or the diameter of the opening may, for example, at least 40%, preferably at least 50% or more preferably at least 60% correspond to the size of the cleaning agent, so that on the one hand a lot of water can penetrate through this opening in the basket and also a large window on the insert sheet is obtained. In this variant, the basket may be transparent, somewhat translucent or not transparent, both white and colored.
If both the basket and the cleaning agent are transparent, the insert sheet may in principle also be arranged between the cleaning agent and the wall of the basket pointing in the direction of the toilet bowl, since in this case the consumer has access through the first transparent wall and through the transparent cleaning agent the printed, painted or otherwise visually appealing designed Einlegerblatt can see through.
Also, the insert sheet may be formed both flat and three-dimensional, as described below.
In a further preferred variant, the insert sheet additionally has at least one inlet opening for the rinse water and / or at least one guide element for the rinse water in order to promote the entry of the rinse water into the basket and to the means to be dissolved. The size, number and shape of the openings depends both on the resolution to be achieved, as well as on the particular desired optics.
In another embodiment, the liner sheet is not a flat film piece, but rather a deep-drawn film piece or otherwise three-dimensionally deformed sheet-formed liner sheet lying in the basket and having its three-dimensionally deformed "belly" through the opening in the first wall of the basket protrudes into the interior of the toilet bowl. In such a three-dimensionally deformed insert sheet, in particular, the openings provided on the upward-facing side or laterally accessible openings are particularly suitable as inlet openings for the rinse water.
In a further variant, the insert sheet has one or more perforations for the production of openings. The consumer can thus - depending on the desired amount of water that is to enter the basket - by piercing one or more perforations determine the number of access openings and possibly their size.
In addition, in this three-dimensionally shaped, but also in the flat Einlegerblättern on the facing towards the interior of the toilet bowl side from the outside profiles or guide lips may be formed, which promote a targeted entry of the rinse water into the basket.
The three-dimensionally deformed insert sheet may also have a curvature in the direction of the cleaning agent. By such a curvature - especially in combination with additional openings or guide elements - the passage of the rinse water to the detergent can be improved.
In the variant in which the insert sheet is fastened to the basket with a releasable adhesive bond, the basket wall preferably has at least one opening which serves for the entry of the rinsing water and optionally for the top view of the information on the insert sheet. Through this opening (s), the rinse water comes into contact with the outside of the insert sheet.
If the inlay sheet now also has through openings which are located behind the region of the openings in the basket wall, the rinse water can enter the interior of the basket through the basket wall and through the passage openings in the insert sheet.
The insert sheet is thus detachably glued over a basket wall with openings. In addition, the insert sheet in the region of the openings in the basket wall preferably also has openings for the entry of the rinsing water.
The adhesive bond can be substantially full-surface, punctiform, in the form of a circumferential line near the edge of the insert sheet or otherwise.
In all the variants in which the insert sheet is bonded to a basket wall, the cleaning agent is always located between the insert sheet and the basket wall, which is opposite to the basket wall which is glued to the insert sheet.
In all of the above-described variants of the insert sheet, it is possible, in addition to the "visible information" with fragrances and / or additives and / or cleaning and / or disinfecting agents and / or preservatives and / or silver particles and / or holograms and / or RFID codes and / or a QR code.
If the insert sheet becomes the carrier for the fragrances, the production process of the cleaning agent and its formulation can be further simplified and the cycle times can be increased. In addition, intolerances, chemical reactions, etc. between fragrances and other components in the detergent are avoided. The fragrances can be applied by special printing process on the insert sheet or already contained in the plastic material. They gradually evaporate from the surface of the insert sheet, independently of the rinse cycle, thus ensuring even scenting.
The insert sheet can also be equipped, for example, with silver particles or silver compounds for antibacterial effect. Other insoluble or gradually dissolving additives may include the insert sheet.
It is also possible to equip the insert sheet with indicators that indicate, for example, the consumption of the toilet detergent. A variant of such an indicator is a hologram. If the cleaning agent is used up, then the insert sheet can, with a correspondingly shaped basket, tilt with its upper region backwards against the second wall, so that the angle at which the consumer sees onto the insert sheet changes. If the insert sheet is provided with a hologram, it is possible to call attention to a changed situation by changing the angle through the hologram.
It has already been explained previously that the insert sheet can also be printed with different printing inks having different properties, e.g. can be printed on the solubility, whereby over the consumption period changing information can be achieved.
For easier reordering, the insert sheet can also be equipped with a QR code and for theft protection of the entire package with an RFID chip.
The insert sheet according to the invention can be used both in a disposable toilet bowl loaded with cleaning agent and in refillable toilet bowls.
The insert sheet can be adapted to any cup geometry as a flat foil piece or as a three-dimensionally deformed inserter sheet and thus can be used for baskets with cuboid, round, cylindrical, cube-shaped or otherwise shaped cleaning agents in a basket for one, two, three, four or more cleaning agents.
In principle, the insert sheet can also be produced as an injection-molded part.
Under a toilet bowl is understood in the context of the invention, everything that two walls, which may also be broken, between which a cleaning agent - however held - is. How the toilet bowl is finally fixed in the toilet, is irrelevant for the basket definition.
In a further variant, the insert sheet is made of PET, PVC, polystyrene, polypropylene, biopolymers or another plastic and preferably made of recyclable PET.
In another variant, the basket includes one or more transparent cleaning agents and two liner sheets, with one liner sheet disposed between the detergent surface and the first wall and the second liner sheet between the other detergent surface and the opposing second wall. As a result of the transparency of the means, both the information on the first insert sheet and-due to the transparent means with its different refractive index-the second insert sheet is visible and a particular visual impression is conveyed.
Depending on the desired optical effect transparent or non-transparent toilet cleaning agents can be used in the toilet bowl.
The invention also relates to a kit for producing such a detergent-filled basket with a self-printable insert sheet.
All the above-described variants of Einlegerblattes can be combined in whatever combination, it is only important what effects should be achieved with the Einlegerblatt.
Also, the differently combined variants of inserts sheets such as a flat printed piece of film having fragrances and holes, or a three-dimensionally deformed film piece, which is formed in the shape of a heart and coated with silver and has an opening in the upper area, with the different variants from baskets such as a transparent, semi-transparent or opaque basket, which may have a large opening in the first wall.
In this then different shaped cleaning agents, whether parallelepiped, cylindrical, round, cube-shaped or otherwise shaped, are inserted, namely a detergent alone or two, three, four or more pieces in a basket.
The invention also relates to a method for producing a visually appealing toilet bowl. In this case, between the first and the second basket wall of the toilet bowl, the cleaning agent and the Einlegerblatt, which carries visible information for the consumer, inserted so that the insert sheet is between the detergent and the first or second basket wall. The insert sheet covers at least part of the surface of the cleaning agent.
Moreover, the invention also relates to a method for providing a visually appealing toilet bowl in a toilet bowl. The toilet bowl has a first and a second basket wall. The cleaning agent and the liner sheet carrying information visible to the consumer are disposed between the first and second basket walls. The insert sheet covers at least part of the surface of the cleaning agent and is located between the cleaning agent and the first or second cup wall. The toilet bowl is attached to the toilet bowl in such a way that the liner sheet points with its visible side in the direction of the interior of the toilet bowl.
The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to various embodiments.

FIG. 4 shows the top view of the insert sheet from FIGS. 1 to 3,
FIG. 5 shows the unfolded toilet bowl,
FIG. 6 shows a further variant of the insert sheet with openings and guide elements,
Figure 7 is a side view of a three-dimensionally deformed insert sheet with opening and
Figure 8 shows a further variant in which a basket wall is designed as a frame.
Figure 1 shows the top view of the basket 11 when it is mounted in a toilet bowl, thus the view on the visible side 16, in which the four stylized colorful flower motifs 42 are clearly recognizable as information, Figure 2 is the rear view of the basket 11 and Figure 3 is the plan view of the left side according to arrow A in Figure 1.
The transparent toilet bowl 11 is filled with four cylindrical white detergent tablets 20 which are received in the four shell parts 25, 25 ', 25 ", 25'" corresponding to the shape of the detergent 20. In each shell part 25 - 25 '' 'is in each case a cleaning agent 20, which is disc-shaped or cylindrical. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the insert sheet 40, which is printed with the flower motifs 42, is located between the surface of the cleaning agent 20 facing the visible side and the inside 26 of the first basket wall 12.
The first cup wall 12 has a large round opening 15, on the one hand, the motif on the insert sheet 40 is clearly visible and also serves as an inlet opening 17 for the rinse water.
If the basket 11 is transparent, the motif on the insert sheet 40 also appears through the transparent toilet bowl 11, cf. FIG. 1. If the toilet bowl 11 is opaque, the motif or information is substantially visible only through the opening 15 in the first cup wall 12.
The insert sheet 40 ( Figure 4 ) is preferably a plastic film which has a certain inherent stability and dimensional stability and is cut so that it corresponds to the shape of the basket 11 and the detergent 20, ie on the one hand the cleaning agent 20 in the direction of the visible side 16 preferably in Essentially completely covers, on the other hand, on its underside of the shape of the lower inner Körbchenbereichs such as the undulating bottom portion 28 with the bumps 27 corresponds, so that the insert sheet 40 can be supported with its bottom 45, for example on the bumps 27 and the inner bottom portion.
The insert sheet 40 has such a rigidity and dimensional stability as to provide or span in the cup 11 in the toilet bowl-attached state an information surface remaining over the life of the means 20, and to give the cleansing means 20 behind it a pleasing appearance. The insert sheet 40 is an independently manageable part.
The insert sheet can either be placed on the bottom of the basket as an independently manageable part as described above and be supported on the inner cup wall and / or the cleaning agent. But it can also be hung in the inwardly pointing basket wall or on the inner wall of the basket on protruding noses "impaled" (not shown). It is only important that the insert sheet is interchangeable and can - as always - be fixed between the basket wall and the detergent.
The toilet bowl 11 is shown (unfolded) in Figure 5 . It has a hook 19, which serves for attachment to the toilet bowl on. However, the toilet bowl 11 can also be otherwise secured in the toilet bowl.
The toilet bowl 11 comprises a first cup wall 12 and a second cup wall 13, which are connected to the cup bottom 14 by a hinge 21. In the suspended state, the first basket wall 12 in the direction of the toilet bowl interior and thus in the direction of the consumer. The outside of the first cup wall 12 thus forms the visible side 16. In the first cup wall 12 are four large round openings 15 through which the insert sheet 40 is visible and through which water can enter the cup 11 by the water between the insert sheet 40th and the opening 15 flows in the direction of the basket bottom 14 and the cleaning agent 20 is triggered.
In addition, the basket 11 also has further inlet openings 17 for the rinsing water in each case between two shell parts 25, 25 ', etc., the outlet openings 18 are located in the bottom area of the basket 11. In addition, the rinsing water also flows in the bottom area in the gap between the first basket wall 12 and the second cup wall 13 from.
The basket wall 12, 13 is understood to mean any shape which at least partially forms an outer surface of the basket 11. For example, the basket wall 12, 13 have a single large opening, so that the cup wall 12, 13 is designed in the form of a frame.
On the upwardly facing side of the (closed) cup 11 lugs 22 and latching openings 23 are provided, into which the lugs 22 engage with the basket 11 closed and the cup 11 close.
The Toilettenkörbchen 11 may be white, colored, milky or transparent and consist of one or more parts. Also it can be black or have a metal look.
In the manufacture of the basket 11 according to the invention, first the basket 11 is produced in the opened state shown in FIG. 5 as an injection-molded part into which the printed insert sheet 40 is preferably automatically inserted. Subsequently, the detergent 20 are inserted into the opened basket 11 and the cup 11 is then closed. Of course, only the cleaning agent 20 and then the insert sheet 40 can be inserted into the basket 20.
In another variant, shown in Figure 6 , the insert sheet 40 is in addition to the information such as the flower motif 42 or similar. also provided with small openings 46 and guide elements 47. The openings 46 serve as further inlet openings for the rinse water, the guide elements 47 serve to direct the rinse water flow into the interior of the basket 11. The insert sheet 40 shown in Figure 6 with the flower motifs 42 corresponds to the insert sheet 40 of Figure 4 with the difference that the center of the flower 42 is now an opening 46 through which rinse water can enter the cup 11 and at the bottom of the opening 46th a guide element 47 is provided which is intended to guide the water into the basket 11.
In this variant, the insert sheet 40 thus not only a pleasing appearance with ease of manufacture, but also promotes the Spülwasserzutritt in the basket 11. On the size and number of openings 46 in the insert sheet 40 is thus possible, specifically the dissolution rate of the agent 20th in the basket 11, which depends on the basket geometry, the type of toilet and the cleaning agent 20 used in each case. If, for example, the consumer determines that the rinsing rate is too low due to the conditions prevailing there or the type of cleaning agent 20 used, this can be increased by replacing the insert sheet 40 and using another insert sheet 40 with several or larger openings 46.
In a further variant, the insert sheet 40 not only has additional openings 46, which serve for the access of the rinse water, but the insert sheet 40 may also be three-dimensionally deformed, in particular be formed as a deep-drawn part. An example of such a three-dimensionally preformed insert sheet 40 is shown in FIG. 7 using the example of a blossom in a side view. The petals 48 are formed and protrude toward the interior of the toilet bowl, extending through the opening 15 in the first wall 12 of the basket 11. The center region of the flower motif 42 is again open and allows the opening 46 of the access of rinse water. The lower petals 48 are shaped so that the flushing water flow is introduced into the interior of the basket 11.
In a further variant, which is shown schematically in FIG. 8 , the one (first) cup wall 112 has a single large viewing port 115, so that the first cup wall 112 has the shape of a frame. The basket 111 has a second cup wall 113 connected to the hook 119. In addition, such a basket 111 comprises means 150 for fixing the liner sheet 140 disposed between the first basket wall 112 and the cleaning agent 20. For example, the insert sheet 140 can be inserted from above into a vertically extending groove 150 in the side walls 151, 152 of the basket 111 and thus forms the decorative visible side of the basket 111. The cleaning agent 20 is thus located between the second basket wall 113 and the insert sheet 140 ,
Such a basket 111 may have in the walls 151, 152, in the lid (not shown) and bottom 114 inlet openings and outlet openings (not shown) for the rinse water and in particular also openings 146 in the insert sheet 140.
