Abstract: The device (1) comprises: a body (2) in which is formed a receptacle (3) having a mouth (4) and intended to receive a quantity of washing agent, a cover (5) connected to the body (2) and movable between a position in which the mouth (4) of the said receptacle (3) is closed and a position in which the mouth is open, and a return spring tending to move the cover (5) towards the open position. The cover (5) has a first portion (5a) hinged to the body (2) about a first axis (7) parallel to the mouth (4) of the receptacle (3) and translatable along guides (6) provided in the body (2), and a second portion (5b) connected to a crank element (8) by hinging about a second axis (9) parallel to the first axis (7). The crank element (8) is, in turn, hinged to the body (2) about a third, fixed axis (10) which is parallel to the first and second axes (7, 9).

Abstract: A device for monitoring the functioning of a rotating liquid-discharging appliance includes at least one collecting chamber with at least one inlet orifice, at least one outlet orifice, and at least one sensor. The outlet orifice of the collecting chamber has a smaller cross section than the inlet orifice, and the sensor is a level sensor that transmits signals to an evaluation apparatus, by which an entire functioning of the rotating liquid-discharging appliance can be monitored. The monitoring device is disposed approximately in a region acted upon with liquid by the appliance to be monitored.
