Abstract (en)

A bell-shaped trap (18) is provided upstream of the recirculation filter (12) with its open base (20) situated at a level (B) which is lower than the dynamic level (D) reached by the water in the sump (8) when a washing, ie.recirculating pump (10) is operating. The base of said bell-shaped element forms with said filter (12) a hollow space (19) communicating with the drain (5-7), wherein said bell-shaped element (18) substantially retains the soil particles (16, 17) suspended in the water and prevents the so trapped particles from being subsequently sucked in through the filter (12) with the flow of water brought about by the pump (10). <IMAGE>
