My invention relates toay dishwashing de* vice and hasffor itspr'incip'al object the provision of'a relatively simple, practical and to providea device of the characterreferred ingdevice constructed i inexpensive devicethatmay yberconnected 'to a faucet or the like, and winch Vdevice may be advantageously employed for the purpose of washing dishes that are or other suitable container.

Further objects of my `invention arey to provide a dish washing device that may be manipulated without the necessity forrplac ing the hands in the washing luids,. furtlier to ,with a perforated container for soap; or the like, and which latteris mixed with .the water passing through the device, thereby produc ing soapsuds for the purpose of cleansing the dishes; and further to provide ardish'v washing device that 4includes a readilydetachabie brush that serves as a scrubbingelement while the device isin use;

Extending through the lower portion `of the container V10 and secured tothe wall thereof is al rod 18, the ends of which project a slight distanceoutwardly frointhe wall of the container, thereby providing supports and points ofr attachinentfor a brush that is positioned beneath thecontaiiier.

when the brushfframeis applied to the container, lie immediately beneath the bottom of the container as illustrated in F igs. 2 and 8.

The end portions of the twisted wire brush frame are extended yupward to formsubstantial'ly inverted if-shaped members 21,k the up,-

This container 24 is adapted to receive soap or lilre detergent, and the size of this soap container is such that it restson the rod 18 as illustrated for Fig. 2.

By virtue of this arrangement the soap' container is held above tliebottom 11 of the container 10, and thus theentire series of apertures '23 are always open toy permit the In the use of my improved dish washing device hot water from a faucet or other'suitable source of supply is permitted to. passk through a flexible tube 17, and this heated water fills thecontainer 10, and acting upon the soap or detergentcontained in the can 24 produces soapsuds, and which flatter 'dis-- 10o f. i
