<p>A water distribution device for incorporation in a clothes washing machine has a cylindrical casing (1) having at one end a laterally directed inlet (2) for water supply which extends coaxially (3) within the casing, at the other end a cover (8) closing the casing, a plurality of outlets (11) being provided around said other end, and centrally within the casing, a rotatable sleeve (5) integral with a spigot (7) projecting through a hole in said cover (8). The spigot is rotated so as to move the sleeve (5) to direct flow of water to one or other of the outlet (11); separate valves for the outlets are not needed. A drain outlet (12) is also connected beneath the casing. The outlets (1) may be four, to respectively supply pre-wash, wash, rinse and addition of additive for the operations of the machine. <IMAGE></p> |
