Laundry treating appliance detergent dispenser
A laundry treating appliance includes a cabinet defining an interior and having an access opening to the interior, a treating chamber located within the interior and accessible through the access opening, a dispenser having a drawer with at least one chemistry container and a faucet, and a water supply fluidly coupled to the faucet.
1. A laundry treating appliance comprising:
a cabinet defining an interior and having an access opening to the interior;
a treating chamber located within the interior and accessible through the access opening;
a pre-treatment faucet having an actuator accessible by a user and an outlet fluidly coupled to the treating chamber, the pre-treatment faucet configured for pre-treating a laundry item prior to the laundry treating appliance beginning an automatic cycle of operation; and
a treating chemistry dispenser having at least one container with a flood wall positioned in the at least one container, wherein the at least one container directs a pre-treatment water flow from a water supply to the flood wall such that water is directed to flow up and over the flood wall and out the outlet of the pre-treatment faucet in response to user actuation of the actuator.
2. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , wherein the pre-treatment faucet can dispense water mixed with treating chemistry.
3. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , wherein the at least one container includes multiple containers and one of the multiple containers dispenses treating chemistry during operation of the laundry treating appliance.
4. The laundry treating appliance of claim 3 , wherein the multiple containers can hold differing types of treating chemistry.
5. The laundry treating appliance of claim 3 , further comprising a hot water supply connected to a first one of the multiple containers, a cold water supply connected to a second one of the multiple containers, and a mixed hot and cold water supply connected to a third one of the multiple containers.
6. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , further comprising a cold water supply connected to the at least one container.
7. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , wherein the outlet of the pretreatment faucet is spaced adjacent the flood wall.
8. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , wherein the outlet is spaced from the treating chemistry dispenser.
9. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , wherein the cabinet comprises a shroud defining the access opening and the outlet is located on the shroud.
10. The laundry treating appliance of claim 9 , wherein the shroud comprises an aperture defining the outlet.
11. The laundry treating appliance of claim 10 , wherein the pre-treatment faucet comprises a conduit connecting the at least one container to the aperture.
12. The laundry treating appliance of claim 10 , wherein the actuator for the pre-treatment faucet is provided on the shroud.
13. The laundry treating appliance of claim 12 , wherein the actuator is adjacent the aperture.
14. The laundry treating appliance of claim 11 , further comprising a water supply line fluidly coupled to the at least one container and a valve fluidly coupled to one of the water supply line and the conduit, and the actuator is operably coupled to the valve.
15. The laundry treating appliance of claim 1 , wherein the treating chemistry dispenser comprises a drawer and the at least one container is carried by the drawer.
16. A laundry treating appliance comprising:
a cabinet defining an interior and having a shroud defining an access opening to the interior;
a basket located within the interior, the basket having an open top and rotatable about a vertical axis;
a faucet having an outlet located within the shroud;
a treating chemistry dispenser drawer carrying the faucet, the treating chemistry dispenser drawer having containers slidable relative to the shroud between a first position, where at least one of the containers underlies the shroud, and a second position, where the at least one of the containers extends at least partially beyond the shroud and overlies the basket; and at least one of the containers comprising a flood wall positioned in the container; and
a pre-treatment water supply comprising:
a water line fluidly coupled via a valve to the at least one of the containers comprising the flood wall; and
an actuator accessible by a user, wherein actuation of the actuator controls an opening/closing of the valve to control a supply of water to the container comprising the flood wall such that water is directed to flow up and over the flood wall and out the outlet of the faucet.
17. The laundry treating appliance of claim 16 , wherein the faucet can dispense water mixed with treating chemistry.
18. The laundry treating appliance of claim 16 , further comprising a hot water supply connected to a first one of the containers, a cold water supply connected to a second one of the containers, and a mixed hot and cold water supply connected to a third one of the containers.
19. The laundry treating appliance of claim 16 , further comprising a cold water supply connected to the at least one of the containers.
20. The laundry treating appliance of claim 16 , wherein the actuator is located on one of the shroud or the treating chemistry dispenser drawer, or adjacent the outlet.
