(57) The device is intended in particular for a dishwasher (1) provided with a front door
(5) oscillating around a substantially horizontal axis (A-A). It comprises
a support structure (11) intended to be fixed to the internal face of the door (5)
and in which a tub receptacle (17) is defined, operatively turned towards the inside
of the machine (1) and suitable for holding a quantity of washing agent,
a lid (20) guided in a sliding manner in the structure (11) and manually displaceable,
against the action of a recall spring (44), from an open position to a closed position
of the receptacle, respectively distant from and close to said axis (A-A); and
a retention device (30, 31) associated with the lid (20) and suitable for retaining
it in the closed position, against the action of the recall springs (44).
The retention device (30, 31) is fitted in the support structure (11) at one side
of the receptacle (17) different from the one closest to said axis (A-A) and can be
deactivated by means of an electrically controlled actuator device (37), as well as
by means of a manually activated release element (40) which is also mounted moveably
in the support structure (11) at one side of the receptacle (17) different from the
side closest to said axis (A-A).
