Abstract (en)

The present invention provides a container (10) with a metering device (20) for granular products, especially for granular detergents. This metering device allows to vary the dose dispensed form said container just prior the use of said container. Said metering device comprises a collecting chamber (34) under a dispensing channel (40). By adjusting the height of the bottom end of said dispensing channel from the bottom of said collecting chamber, the quantity of product in said collecting chamber which is able to flow from said collecting chamber through said dispensing channel to the exterior of said container is varied. The collecting chamber is refilled through an adjacent metering chamber (32). <MATH>
