Abstract

La présente invention concerne un appareil de distribution d'additif et une machine à laver. L'appareil de distribution comporte: un conduit d'alimentation en eau, utilisé pour l'écoulement d'eau fournie à travers celui-ci; une unité de distribution, utilisée pour distribuer un additif au conduit d'alimentation en eau; une structure de décompression, disposée sur le conduit d'alimentation en eau et plaçant un intérieur de le conduit d'alimentation en eau en communication avec une atmosphère externe, à des fins de décompression et de ventilation; une structure de sortie de liquide, une sortie du conduit d'alimentation en eau étant reliée à la structure de sortie de liquide, et la structure de sortie de liquide étant utilisée pour distribuer un mélange d'additif et d'eau. En mettant en place une structure de décompression dans un conduit d'eau d'un appareil de distribution, une pression excédentaire dans le conduit d'eau peut être évacuée vers l'extérieur à partir de la structure de décompression, de façon à diminuer la pression transmise d'un conduit d'eau intégré disposé sur l'appareil de distribution, mettant ainsi en œuvre une protection contre les surpressions pour le conduit d'eau de l'appareil de distribution.
