    12-19-2013 DESCRIPTION
    Washing Machine Dispenser 5 Object of the invention
    The present invention relates to a dispenser for washing machines, whereby an active ingredient is supplied inside a washing machine when washing clothes.
    10 Background of the invention
    The use of dispensers for washing machines is known, which are used to deliver an active ingredient during laundry.
    15 These types of dispensers are placed inside the drum of the washing machine provided with a replaceable load of the active ingredient. During washing, when the active ingredient comes into contact with the washing water, said active ingredient dissolves, improving the washing characteristics.
    20 Dispensers for known washing machines presently have the disadvantage that they can damage the clothes, since the dispensing device moves inside the drum, or with the drum, when it rotates, so that it rubs against the clothes, which can cause damage in the same. This is due to the fact that the dispenser must be the
    25 rigid enough to protect the active ingredient before delivery.
    Therefore, the objective of the present invention is to provide a washing machine dispenser that cannot damage the laundry during washing, but at the same time effectively protects the active ingredient before delivery.
    30 Description of the invention
    With the dispenser for washing machines of the invention, the aforementioned drawbacks are resolved, presenting other advantages that will be described below.
    35
    The dispenser for washing machines according to the present invention comprises a
    P201331868
    12-19-2013
    housing provided with holes that can accommodate an active ingredient therein, and is characterized in that it also comprises a structure placed inside said housing, said structure being a harder material than the material of said housing.
    5 In this way, the housing can be made of a soft enough material so as not to damage the clothes during the washing process, and the structure can be made of a hard enough material to protect the active ingredient inside the housing.
    According to a preferred embodiment, said structure is formed by a plurality of rods 10 joined together, and can be made of plastic material, such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polyamide.
    Advantageously, said housing is made of elastomer, or of a similar material, and is formed by two articulated bodies that can be coupled together.
    fifteen
    Furthermore, said housing advantageously comprises one or more magnets for fixing to the drum of the washing machine.
    Said housing may also comprise at least one tongue to facilitate removal 20 of the washer dispenser. Brief description of the drawings
    To better understand how much has been exposed, some drawings are attached in which, schematically and only by way of non-limiting example, a practical case of realization is represented.
    Figure 1 is a top perspective view of the washing machine dispenser according to the present invention, with an active ingredient capsule inside;
    30
    Figure 2 is a bottom perspective view of the washing machine dispenser according to the present invention; Y
    Figure 3 is an exploded perspective view similar to Figure 1, with the structure and the active ingredient capsule separated.

    12-19-2013 Description of a preferred embodiment
    The dispenser according to the present invention is specially designed for use in washing machines, providing an active ingredient during the process of washing clothes or fabrics.
    Said dispenser comprises a housing 1 formed of a material that could be referred to as "soft", that is to say that it does not damage the clothes or the fabric inside the washing machine, taking into account the friction existing between the housing and the clothes during the process
    10 wash, in which the drum of the washing machine can rotate very quickly.
    In particular, said housing 1 is preferably made of elastomer or of any suitable material that cannot damage clothing.
    Said housing 1 is preferably formed by two bodies 1a, 1b that can be coupled to each other in any suitable manner, one of said bodies 1a being provided with a housing for an active ingredient 3 (for example in the form of a capsule or placed inside a membrane) and a plurality of holes 2 for the supply or release of the active ingredient during the washing process.
    20 The need to mechanically reinforce the housing of the apparatus is due to two main reasons: on the one hand, to prevent the compressive strength of the active ingredient container from being subjected to the mechanical pressure of the wet clothes. On the other hand, to maintain the free circulation of water within the
    25 housing and avoid that when the device is compressed the dosage of active substance is less than desired.
    A structure 4 is placed inside said housing 1, as can be best seen in Figure 3. This structure 4 is made of a material that could be referred to as
    "Hard", that is to say that it has sufficient rigidity to protect said active ingredient 3, since said structure surrounds, at least partially, said active ingredient 3.
    For example, said structure 4 can be made of plastic, such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polyamide, or any other sufficiently hard or rigid material. In practice, it has
    35 determined that a suitable material is any that has a hardness degree of approximately 80 Shore A.
    P201331868
    12-19-2013
    According to a preferred embodiment, said structure 4 is formed by a plurality of rods joined together, so as not to limit the supply of the active ingredient.
    5 In a preferred embodiment, the reinforcing structure is simply disposed within the housing without being physically attached thereto. Alternatively, the two pieces could also be joined by any known means of joining, including without limitation glue, welding, overmolding, etc.
    10 To removably attach the housing 1 to a washing machine drum, said housing 1 comprises at least one magnet 5. In the embodiment shown, the housing 1 comprises four magnets 5, placed in the corners of one of the bodies 1a forming the housing
    one.
    On the other hand, the other body 1b of the housing 1 is substantially flat and is provided with at least one tongue 6 to facilitate the removal of the housing 1 from the drum of the washing machine.
    To use the washing machine dispenser according to the present invention, it must simply be placed inside the drum of the washing machine, remaining fixed thanks to the
    20 magnets 5 of the housing 1.
    Once the washing process is started, the water from the washing machine is introduced into the housing 1 through the holes 2 and mixed with the active ingredient 3, the water mixed with said active ingredient 3 leaving the housing 1, improving the wash quality
    When the washing process is finished, the dispenser of the present invention can be comfortably removed from the inside of the drum of the washing machine, stretching the tongue 6 against the magnetic force of the magnets 5.
    30 For the next washing process, simply a new active ingredient 3 is placed, in a capsule or membrane inside the housing of said housing 1. Alternatively, an appropriate active ingredient container could be considered for use during several washing cycles.
    35 Although reference has been made to a specific embodiment of the invention, it is apparent to one skilled in the art that the washing machine dispenser described is
    P201331868
    12-19-2013
    susceptible of numerous variations and modifications, and that all the mentioned details can be replaced by other technically equivalent ones, without departing from the scope of protection defined by the appended claims.
