A washing machine includes a valve with a housing base and a rotor, the housing base defining a central liquid line, nozzles in the housing base and in a circle that is concentric to an axis of the rotor, the nozzles being connectable to the central liquid line by a connection line in the rotor and having a seal that seals a connection with the connection line, a motor for driving the rotor, a storage container connected to each of the nozzles, a liquid line connected to the central liquid line, a pump connecting the liquid line to a dispensing device for a laundry treatment room, and a water feed without a seal in a transition to the connection line. The rotor axially presses the seals toward the housing base until contact areas of the rotor and the housing base oppose each other and are close to each other.
An automatically controlled washing machine with a system for mechanically metering liquid or pasty washing aids stored in storage containers, the system comprising:
A method for rinsing a multiple action addition valve in an automatically controlled washing machine with a system for mechanically metering liquid or pasty washing aids which are stored in storage containers, the system having a multiple action addition valve which has a central liquid line in a housing base and a plurality of nozzles in a circle which runs concentrically to an axis of a motor-driven rotor, in the housing base, the nozzles being individually connectable to an outlet by a connection line within the motor-driven rotor and having a seal for the connection with the connection line, each of the nozzles connected to one of the storage containers and the liquid line connected via a pump to an addition device for a laundry treatment room the rotor pressing the seals by means of a permanent force acting axially thereupon in the direction of the housing base, until contact areas of the rotor and the housing base are opposite and substantially as close as possible, and a feed of water that has no seal in a transition to the connection line, the method comprising:
