<p>Electric appliance (1) including a washable part (20) comprising: a wall (22, 32, 30) that defines a sealed electronics compartment (34); electronics (38, 40) disposed inside said compartment; a valve (44), including: a valve housing (46) incorporated in said wall (32) and defining a valve passage (48) from an interior (36) of the electronics compartment (34) to an exterior (58) of the electronics compartment, and a valve member (52) that is at least partly movably arranged inside the valve housing (46) such that it is displaceable between a first position in which the valve passage (48) is substantially closed off, and a second position in which the valve passage is substantially open. The valve member (52) is configured to move into the first position through water-induced action when the valve is inserted in water, and to move into the second position when the valve is removed from said water.</p> |
