ABSTRACT:
A compact rinse aid dispenser that mounts on top of the agitator post and dispenses a rinse aid during the rinse cycle. The rinse aid is held in a conical-shaped cup during the wash/agitate cycle, and then is sprayed out and retained against the inner wall of the housing by centrifugal force during the spin cycle. The rinse aid then drains down through a funnel into the agitator post and out a slot therein when the spinning stops. The dispenser has a lid with a horizontal wall and a cylindrical downwardly extending barrier around the fill hole to prevent rinse aid from being sprayed back out the fill hole as a result of an out-of-balance load that causes the agitator post and dispenser to orbit about the vertical axis. Further, a labyrinth is provided around the drain hole in the funnel to prevent premature draining of rinse aid into the agitator post.
