An air port that is open to the atmosphere is arranged in fluid communication with the main chamber such that the main chamber is open to atmospheric pressure and produces a water pressure drop between the water inlet ports and a water outlet port at the bottom of the main chamber.

A washing feeding device includes a water box, and a feeding box installed in the water box; at least one feeding chamber is arranged in the feeding box. A baffle board is pivoted and installed in the feeding chamber for preventing water from flowing to a water outlet. A gap portion is formed on the baffle board, and an inlet water flow of the water box flows to the gap portion of the baffle board that is open when the baffle board is pivoted, and the inlet water flow washes a bottom wall of the feeding chamber below the baffle board after passing through the baffle board from the gap portion, and opening the baffle board. Via the above arrangement, residue of washing powder at the water outlet of the feeding chamber shielded by the baffle board is prevented.

A laundry washing machine (1) includes an outer casing (2), a washing tub (3), a rotatable drum housed in axially rotatable manner inside the washing tub (3), a detergent dispenser (10), a fresh-water supply circuit (12) for selectively channelling a flow of fresh water towards the detergent dispenser (10) and/or the washing tub (3), and an internal water softening device (14) capable of reducing the hardness degree of the fresh water. The laundry washing machine (1) further includes: at least a main drawer (16, 74) which is fitted/inserted in extractable manner into a corresponding substantially basin-shaped, drawer housing (18, 73) which is located/recessed inside the outer casing (2), and is provided with a substantially basin-shaped, manually tillable regeneration-agent compartment (20); a first water-supply line (19) which is structured for selectively channelling a flow of fresh water into said regeneration-agent compartment (20) so as to form some brine; a brine container (34) which is located underneath the drawer housing (18, 73) and communicates with the bottom of the drawer housing (18, 73) so as to allow the brine to freely flow by gravity from a basin-shaped bottom portion (32) of said drawer housing (18, 73) into the same brine container (34); and an electrically-powered pump (35) able to selectively pump the brine from said brine container (34) to the water softening device (14).

The present disclosure discloses a detergent delivery device, comprising a water box and a liquid storage box, an inner side wall of the water box is provided with a boss protruding towards an inside of the water box and extending along an axial direction of the water box, an upper surface of the boss is a supporting surface, and the liquid storage box is placed on the supporting surface of the boss, and is pulled along an extension direction of the supporting surface, the boss is provided with a notch penetrating through the supporting surface, such that water on the supporting surface flows into the water box through the notch. In the present disclosure, the notch is arranged on the supporting surface, under the condition of not influencing the pulling movement of the liquid storage box, water on the supporting surface is guided to the inside of the water box.

A method for controlling a laundry washing machine. The method includes: performing a tub loading process comprising operating supply valve(s) to provide a first volume of water through a detergent supply system and into a tub to fill the tub with wash liquid; performing a washing process comprising rotating a drum to agitate laundry in in the presence of the wash liquid; performing a static rinsing process comprising operating a pump to remove a free volume of wash liquid from the tub without rotating the drum; and performing one or more rinsing processes comprising: operating the supply valve(s) to provide a volume of clean rinse water to the tub, operating the pump to remove the rinse water from the drum, and operating the motor to spin the drum at high speed to extract rinse water from the laundry, while continuing to operate the pump.

A laundry washing machine (1) connectable to a water mains (E, E′) has a cabinet (2) supporting a washing tub (3) external to a rotatable washing drum (4) suited to receive laundry and a treating agents dispenser (20) connectable to the water mains (E, E′) by means of at least one supply valve (40a, 40b, 40c, 40d, 40e). The treating agents dispenser (20) has a drawer (22) and a supporting structure (21) on which the drawer (22) can slide along a sliding axis (S). A water distributor (35) includes at least one inlet connector (36a, 36b, 36c, 36d, 36e) adapted to connect the at least one supply valve (40a, 40b, 40c, 40d, 40e) to at least one water conveying line (120a, 120b, 120c, 120d, 120e) for conveying water to a reservoir (23a, 23b, 23c, 23d) or to the washing tub (3). The at least one inlet connector (36a, 36b, 36c, 36d, 36e) extends along a main axis (X) which is inclined with respect to the sliding axis (S).

The present invention relates to a laundry washing machine having a treating agents dispenser (20) provided with one or more compartments (23 a) wherein one of the compartment is suited to receive a unit dose package (DP) comprising a pre-measured amount of treating agent (D) incorporated into a water-soluble pouch (P). The treating agents dispenser (20) comprises a water conveying line having at least one nozzle (41, 42, 43) for generating at least one water jet (51, 52, 53) which hits and breaks the unit dose package (DP) inside the compartment (23a).
