Embodiment Construction

[0033] With reference to the accompanying drawings, first of all Figures 1 to 3 , which shows a dispensing device according to the invention, generally indicated by the reference numeral 1, and comprising a container 2 for containing a quantity of washing products, the container 2 comprising an integral wall 3 and a filling defined by a rigid peripheral edge 5 Opening 4. A body wall consisting in this example of a generally rigid structure of permeable mesh comprising pores with an average size of 0.8 mm prevents water and washing solutions from passing through the body wall 3 freely in this example. The washing product, which is a granular laundry detergent, passes through the body wall 3 . The device 1 comprises a rigid spacer in the form of an elastic cage 8, having a port 9 and arcuate spacers 10, each spacer 10 extending from a first point on the port 9 to a second point on the port 9. One point is diametrically opposite the second point. The interface 9 of the cage 8 ...

Abstract

A dispensing device for the machine washing of laundry comprises a receptacle for receiving an amount of detergent product having filling opening means and a body wall which includes a plurality of apertures for dispensing detergent product. The device includes a rigids spacing means which is formed around the body wall for spacing laundry from the dispensing apertures.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a detergent dispensing device for machine washing laundry. Background technique [0002] Various detergent dispensing devices for machine laundry have been proposed. For example, EP 0 343 070 describes a device comprising a water permeable bag, the mouth of which is held in an open position by a rigid annular rim. In use, the washing powder is filled into the bag, and the filled device is put into the machine together with the clothes. During the laundry process, washing liquid penetrates the bag through the opened mouth and the walls of the bag in order to dissolve and disperse the washing powder contained in the bag. One problem faced with such devices is that the mouth of the device tends to become blocked by clothing during use. In order to solve this problem, WO95 / 04682 proposes a measure of rigid partition means, which protrudes on a plane of the mouth to keep the clothes away from the mouth of the bag, thus pr...
