Abstract: An agitator is configured to be removably mounted to an impeller mount as a clothes mover. The agitator includes a post having a first end and an opposing second end. A connector is disposed at the first end of the post, the connector being configured to removably attach to a corresponding connector of the impeller mount. A dispenser cap assembly is configured to hold a dispenser cup and to control a lock from the second end of the post. The lock is configured to be adjusted between a locked position in which the agitator is secured to the impeller mount and an unlocked position allowing movement of the agitator with respect to the impeller mount.

Abstract: A removable fluid pumping and filtration apparatus for a laundry treatment machine is provided. The apparatus includes a handle portion. A filter section is configured to selectively couple to an impeller of the laundry treatment machine, the filter section defining a hollow interior, a lower water opening to allow for the passage of water out of the interior space of the agitator, and an opening about the exterior circumference of the filter section into which a removable filter is selectively attachable. A handle pull locking post is provided within the hollow interior of the apparatus, including a handle pull portion at a top end for gripping against the handle portion and at least one pin at a bottom end configured to selectively lock the apparatus into the base.

Abstract: Hardware detection in a laundry treatment appliance is provided. Data is received from the sensor providing data in relation to presence or absence of a removable agitator within the laundry treatment appliance. A configuration of the removable agitator with respect to the laundry treatment appliance is identified based on the data from the sensor, the configuration indicating at least the presence or absence of the removable agitator. Settings of the laundry treatment appliance are updated in accordance with the identified configuration of the laundry treatment appliance.
