Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1693500A2] The washing machine has a drum (1) which turns around an axis of rotation (2) with several tanks (10) arranged at the drum for allowing liquid to be input to compensate for an imbalance. Concentric filling rings (13a, 13b, 13c) are arranged at a face of the drum, where each ring forms a filling gutter which is connected to the tanks. An injector (16) injects liquid into the filling gutters and the rings have different diameters. Filling ring (13a) is arranged so that overflow liquid does not run into radially outside lying filling rings (13b, 13c).
