  • Plastic sieves were initially used (made out of Polypropylene or Polyethylene) however, these were large mesh sizes (4 mm in diameter or more) . Such a large size is required because plastics material has hydrophobic features leading to air bubble formation and a relatively high observed surface tension/contact angle of the water on plastic which, on smaller meshes limits water/wash liquor flow severely. Unfortunately however whilst a large mesh size will allow sufficient clean water flow, the mesh size is so large that it does not provide any effective filtration to filter efficiently soil from the washing liquor.

  • Stainless steel mesh sieves with various mesh sizes have been tested. Up to a mesh-size of 0.3 mm aperture water can pass through.
  • Stainless steel sieves of a certain mesh size can efficiently filter the washing liquor entering the device and on the other hand do not reduce the water flow to an unacceptable level (not more than 35 % reduction in water flow) and, indeed, can help to remove the bottleneck from the interior of the device and smooth overall flow.
  • Particularly preferred sieve meshes have been found to be stainless steel sieves with a mesh size between 3.5 mm and 0.2 mm apertures , and most preferably between 0.4 to 1 mm aperture for the efficient filtering of food soil without reducing the water flow significantly.

  • a dosage element should contain between 15 and 25g of cleaning composition.
  • an average density of the composition is set within the range of 1.0 to 1.5g/cm 3 and the preferred hardness of the composition is between 100N-400N.
  • dishwasher environments were analyzed for flow of water/wash liquor and it was found that, in general, water flow rates within a dishwasher are in the range of Ig of water to 15 g of water per square centimetre per minute.
  • the device of the present invention utilises a cleaning composition having a standard dissolution time of 5 minutes.
  • the device It is desirable for the device to function when placed anywhere within a the dishwasher in which a. minimum amount of water is available to it, and so it has been assumed that perhaps only Ig water per minute per square cm is available. With this in mind, to assure that said water collection area is sufficient to provide 5Og of water per minute, a water collection area of 50cm2 is desirable, meaning ' a cylindrical device will require a diameter of approximately 8cm2.
  • the present invention may be seen to cover a range of devices with differing dimensions with, for instance, water collection areas in the range of 30cm2 to 80cm2 and that where high flow rates of water/wash liquor are known to be present a device, having reduced dimensions may be utilised.
  • the ratio of said water collection area to cleaning composition standard dissolution time is within the range of 5 to 50 and, particularly in the range of 10 to 30. to be substantially completely disintegrated in a given test environment.
  • dosage elements are provided in separate metal cages and mechanically agitated in 40 0 C water.
  • the dosage elements are, in fact, not completely dissolved as such as they contain some water insoluble ingredients, therefore we can not speak about complete dissolution but "standard dissolution" which equates here to complete disintegration.
  • dissolution of cleaning composition within the device is aided when each dosage element is housed within a chamber having a larger volume than the cleaning composition stored within it - hence the spacing 10 above the rod or stick - and it may also be desirable to provide a spacing between a lowermost part of the cleaning composition stick and the ⁇ bottom of its respective outer sleeve. Dissolution is particularly improved when the volume of the chamber does not exceed the volume of the dosage element by more than 40% and most preferably when the volume of the chamber exceeds the volume of the dosage element by between 15 and 20%.
  • the fins 42 are located within spacings 30 of the nested article.
  • the tolerance of the fins in the spacings 30 is not large and in this way it is assured, that the rods or sticks, and the upper openings 12, are in the correct orientation, to align with the opening within the lid.
  • the sieve 48 is shown in figure 5 (c) is located within a central water collection area of the lid 46 surrounding the push button 50, it can be utilised advantageously in different types of device, for instance devices having automatic indexing systems driven by, for instance a wax motor. In such cases, the mesh may advantageously extend over a full top surface area of a lid of the device.
