摘要

A container (14) for dispensing detergent for an automatic washing apparatus includes a straight, inwardly tapered side wall (15) which has an open top (17) and a bottom portion (19). The bottom portion includes an integral screen which includes a water inlet. Detergent is placed in the container (14) and snap-on covers (42,31) are positioned over the top and bottom of the container. To dispense detergent from the container, the bottom cover (31) is removed and the container placed in a dispensing unit (12) which sprays water through the bottom. Dissolved detergent is collected and flows to the washing apparatus. The container is easy to manufacture, easy to fill, easy to ship and use.
