Definitions

  • the invention relates to a metering device for receiving and dispensing a laundry treatment agent in a washing machine or the like, consisting of a container with a lid-closed filling opening and at least one dispensing opening for delayed dispensing of the laundry treatment agent.
  • the laundry treatment agent is added to the detergent compartments of a washing machine in order to be washed in from there at the beginning of the respective washing cycle. It can happen that a part runs directly into the detergent solution of the washing machine, particularly in the case of liquid laundry treatment agents, and is therefore no longer fully active for the washing process.
  • the invention has for its object to design a metering device of the type in question in a technically simple manner, particularly in such a way that the delayed delivery of the laundry treatment agent is evened out.
  • This object is achieved with a generic metering device in that the discharge opening is closed with a flow resistance increasing passage wall.
  • a metering device of the type in question of increased utility value is created.
  • the passage wall assigned to the dispensing opening means that the laundry treatment agent can essentially only emerge when there is a sufficient level of water in the washing machine and thus a kind of "washing out" of the laundry treatment agent diffused through the passage wall takes place.
  • the risk of laundry treatment agent leaking prematurely, flowing into the lye socket and thus not being fully usable is eliminated. Good washing results are therefore always achieved, since the laundry treatment agent is always fully effective.
  • the passage wall is also subject to a constant change in contact with the laundry treatment agent and the laundry items, which supports the effect described above.
  • the metering device is not only limited to the use of liquid detergent. In this way, other laundry treatment liquids such as fabric softener etc. can also be added in doses. Furthermore, it is conceivable to add powdered detergent to the metering device, which is dissolved after the entry of water, so that this dissolved substance can emerge from the metering device continuously and also in substantially small amounts.
  • the passage wall is preferably designed as a cover or as an insert.
  • the passage wall preferably consists of an open-pore cell structure.
  • sponge material which can be produced with a wide variety of cell structures, is suitable for the passage wall. Variations in throughput can then be realized through the size of the cell structure cavities and the thickness of the material.
  • the passage wall is arranged on the outside of the container.
  • a container that is soft on the outside is combined with a particularly gentle treatment of the textiles to be washed.
  • the passage wall is removably attached to the container.
  • the passage wall will automatically detach itself during the washing process, specifically when the required water level in the washing machine is given.
  • the removal of the passage wall can also presuppose voluntary handling, for example in order to clean or replace the passage wall if necessary.
  • the container if it works without a cover inside the washing drum, must not have an angular or sharp-edged shape in order to ensure gentle handling of even delicate textiles.
  • the dispensing opening is arranged in a recessed container wall area, in which the passage wall lies as an annular cover. It is therefore flush with the subsequent container wall and does not represent an overhang.
  • the container is spherical and that the annular cover is outside the largest ball diameter.
  • this measure leads to a gentle treatment of the textiles and on the other hand to a level that can lie above the line of the largest sphere radius.
  • the filling of the container is thereby facilitated and a large dosing volume is achieved in that it has a footprint and has the dispensing opening in its upper lateral surface area.
  • a further advantage is characterized by several dispensing openings distributed over a strip zone of the circumference of the container. These promote an equalization with regard to the delivery of the laundry treatment agent.
  • a maximum filling level within the container is achieved in that the filling opening is arranged above the discharge openings.
  • the cover fulfills a double function in that it encloses all or most of the outside of the container. On the one hand, it delays the delivery of the laundry treatment agent and, on the other hand, it represents a shock protection that helps to protect the laundry.
  • the cover has an opening serving as a viewing window for the container wall.
  • This viewing window allows the level of the container to be checked.
  • the container is made of translucent, corresponding plastic. If necessary, the container can be provided with metering marks in the area of this viewing window.
  • the cover is aligned with the uncovered outer wall area of the container. This is the case if the cover is embedded in a recessed area of the container.
  • the discharge opening is designed as a circumferential container slot. Accordingly, the treatment agent is dispensed via a ring zone.
  • the container parts separated by the slot are connected to one another via webs, inner and / or outer frames.
  • closure lid is provided with the discharge opening.
  • this hinge bearing can be produced using a film hinge so that it can be manufactured in one piece.
  • the hinged closure cap is assigned to a spherical container, it fits into the overall picture of the metering device without interference if the closure cap is designed as a flat circular disk and the cover has the shape of a spherical cap.
  • the metering device 1 has a spherically shaped container 2 which has a standing surface 3 formed by a flattened portion.
  • the latter is a filling opening which can be closed by means of a closure cap 4 5 circular floor plan opposite.
  • the closure cover 4 is made of the same material as the container 2 and is connected to the container via a film hinge 6.
  • an actuating handle 7 extends from the top of the closure lid 4 in order to be able to bring the closure lid 4 out of its closure position, which is preferably secured by a latch.
  • the container 2 In its upper lateral surface area opposite the standing surface 3, the container 2 has a strip zone 8 which extends close to the filling opening 5 and which, on two levels lying parallel one above the other, contains dispensing openings 9 which are distributed in a circular plan over the circumference of the container. They are therefore outside the largest ball diameter and below the filling opening 5.
  • Translucent plastic is selected as the material for the container 2. At one point the container 2 has dispensing marks 10 one above the other, from which the fill level of the container for a laundry treatment agent is evident.
  • the discharge openings 9 are covered by a liquid-permeable flow resistance increasing passage wall 27, which is designed as a cover 11.
  • a cover 11 This consists of an open-cell structure.
  • sponge material is used for the cover, which is arranged on the outside of the container 2.
  • the cover 11 encloses most of the outside of the container 2. It extends from the base 3 to the filling opening 5. Only in the area of the dispensing marks 10 does the cover 11 have a rectangular opening serving as a viewing window 12 for the container wall, so that despite the cover 11 the liquid level within the container 2 can be determined.
  • the container 2 is filled to a certain degree with a laundry treatment liquid from a storage container.
  • the closure cover 4 is brought into its locked locked position.
  • the device 1 is to be introduced into the washing drum with the textiles to be washed.
  • the container 2 is in turn so dimensionally stable that it is not subject to flexing movements. Due to the sponge-like cover 11, however, the surface is made relatively soft, which is also gentle on the laundry. Damage to the textiles is therefore excluded.
  • the laundry treatment agent is only dispensed after the water level in the washing machine is sufficient.
  • the second embodiment of the metering device illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 6 bears the reference number 13. It largely corresponds to that of the embodiment described above. The same parts are therefore provided with the same reference numbers.
  • an annular cover 14 extending over the strip zone 8 is now provided. It begins at the filling opening 5 and ends above the largest ball diameter. Accordingly, it is also above the dosing marks 10, so that a viewing window is accordingly not required.
  • This metering device 13 works like the one described above. Sponge material is also used for the annular cover.
  • the third embodiment of the metering device 15 illustrated in FIGS. 7 to 9 largely corresponds to that of the first embodiment.
  • the same parts accordingly have the same reference numerals.
  • In the ball half opposite the standing surface 3 there is an annular recessed container wall area 16. This ends at a distance from the filling opening 5 and before the largest ball diameter.
  • Dispensing openings 17, which are distributed over the circumference and are covered by a cover 18, are located in the annularly drawn-in container wall region 16.
  • the latter preferably consists of sponge material and lies flush in the recessed container wall area 16 in such a way that the cover 18 is aligned with the uncovered wall area of the container 2. This configuration allows the cover to be removed if necessary, for example to replace it.
  • the operation of this washing device 15 otherwise corresponds to the above-described configurations.
  • a single slot-shaped dispensing opening could also be provided.
  • corresponding inner and / or outer frames could also be provided.
  • the dosing device 20 also has a spherical container 21. Opposite its flattened base 3 there is a filling opening 22 which is larger in cross section than the filling openings 5 described above.
  • the filling opening 22 can be covered by means of a flat disk Closure cover 23. This is also hinged on the container 21, by means of a film hinge 24.
  • the closure cover 23 now has dispensing openings 25 arranged on a circular line in a uniform distribution.
  • covers could also be provided that can strip themselves from the openings in order to then release the outlet of the laundry treatment agent.
