Abstract (en)

For a container (1) with a reservoir (2) to collect a product (3) and a dispensing device (4), which is equipped with an opening (5) to dispense a flowable agent, particularly a powdery or granular product (3) dissolved and/or dispersed in a liquid (8), wherein said dispensing device is connected to the reservoir (2), a device (7) with passages (10) is used to hold back excessively large particles of the product (3), so that wholly undissolved product (3) and/or excessively large particles and/or poorly dispersed particles cannot reach the opening (5) of the dispensing device (4) and thereby cannot block the opening (5). To achieve secure protection of the opening against a blockage, it is proposed that the diameter (11) or the minimum width (12) of the passages (10) is from 0.5mm to 5mm and is less than or equal to the diameter (13) or the minimum width of the opening (5) ( Fig. 7 ).
