Rinse out centrifugally operated dispenser for automatic washer

摘要

A rinse or detergent additive dispenser for use in a laundry appliance hangs inside a spin basket and has a first compartment to hold and retain additive during a wash portion of a cycle, and a second compartment communicating with the first compartment which is filled by centrifugal force imparted to the additive in the first compartment during a spin portion of a wash cycle. An opening in the bottom of the second compartment allows gravitational draining of the additive therein when the centrifugal force is removed when rotation of the spin basket ceases, allowing the additive to be dispensed. The first compartment and the automaic washer water inlet are constructed and disposed in registry so that as the dispenser passes under the water inlet during the spray rinse spin of the cycle, the dispenser is rinsed clean.
