On each side of an intermediate portion ( 7 ), the rotating pipe ( 4 ) has a portion ( 6, 8 ) with increased diameter. The intermediate portion ( 7 ) is perforated. A water inlet is arranged in the portion ( 8 ) with increased diameter after the intermediate portion ( 7 ) for replacing the washing water flowing out of the perforations of the intermediate portion ( 7 ).
