Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2540903A2] The device (6) has a detergent tray (7) that contains a detergent, and a receptacle (8) that contains water. The detergent tray is rotated after water is filled in the receptacle. A trigger (9) is activated by a water level that is available in the receptacle so as to rotate the detergent tray independent of the quantity of the detergent contained in the detergent tray. A deflector (18) is utilized for directing a water jet in the direction of the receptacle. An independent claim is also included for a washing machine.
