Abstract

PURPOSE: To automatically feed detergent with simple constitution by providing a measuring means with a box-like case, a measure-formed measuring part, a detergent feeding port pierced at the bottom surface of a throwing part and a detergent guiding part in the form of a funnel. CONSTITUTION: At the time of supplying the power to a device, a detergent container 1 is rotated and detergent in it is guided to the measuring means 5 while being mixed by a guiding means 14. When the means 5 is positioned at a lower side, a fixed quantity of detergent flows into the measuring part 7 from the container 1 and, when an upper surface reaches the tip of the narrow-mouthed part 9b of the detergent guiding part 9 to cover the part 9b, flowing of detergent into the part 7 is stopped. Next, when the container 1 is additionally rotated and the means 5 is positioned at an upper side, detergent drops to be accumulated in a feeding part 10. When the means 5 is positioned at the lower side, detergent flows in from the container 1 to be measured. Then, when the container 1 is additionally rotated and the means 5 is positioned at the lower side, detergent accumulated in the part 10 is fed into a washing tub from a feeding port 8. Consequently, it is possible to automatically and surely measure a fixed amount of detergent and to feed it into the washing tank.
