Abstract (en)

An improved filtering device to be used in a dishwashers includes a covering member (2) fixed at the top of a first filtering member (3) introduced into a second filtering member (4), the latter being in turn introduced into a third filtering member (5) with a close-mesh net, i.e. a microfilter. The device is located on the tank bottom in the center of the concave shape of a plane filter (1) with a large-mesh net. The presence of the covering member (2) provided with particular passage ports (P) and the ratios between the various progressively smaller passage ports provide a higher filtering effectiveness with reduced risks of clogging. <IMAGE>
