Patent attributes
A hydraulic distributor for a washing machine that comprises a rotating drive shaft (7), a distribution nozzle (30) that rotates jointly with the drive shaft (7) and diverts the water to a plurality of compartments, a hydraulic body (2) that comprises a emptying pipe (10), a draining pipe (11) and an exit pipe (15) for re-circulation, and a valve body (6) housed inside said hydraulic body (2). The valve body (6) comprises an obturator (60) that pivots with respect to an axis (61), and an arm (62) that rotates jointly with the drive shaft (7), the rotation of said arm (62) causing said obturator (60) to oscillate between a first position in which the obturator (60) closes the draining pipe (11) and a second position in which the obturator (60) closes the exit pipe (15).
