- the container is formed in one main piece i.e. apart from the water-soluble plastics closure member (s) .
- That one main piece may be in the form of a moulded or thermoformed tray having said chambers, in which the doses are provided.
- the backing material may be secured over the tray to close the chambers, and entrap the doses .
- the tray and backing material in effect together form the multiple chambers.
- the chambers, containing said doses are of substantially the same cross-section along their length; in particular, they preferably do not taper.
- the article is such that, in its nested form, adjacent chambers containing doses of cleaning composition are separated by a spacing.
- a separate holder into which the nested article is placed, in use preferably has an array of walls radiating from a hub, wherein spacings must be mated with divider walls when the article is located in the holder. There could be one-to- one correspondence between spacings and divider walls, but preferably there are more spacings than divider walls . Three or four divider walls will generally suffice to cause the article to be located correctly in the holder. In general we may say there is preferably 3-8 divider walls, preferably 4-6.
- the holder is generally a plastics body, rigid and substantial, but the article, once the dosage elements have gone, is light and may even be rather flimsy. It suitably comprises just the backing material and the sleeves (which may be light thermoformed sheet, or film) .
- the article is intended as a refill, the holder retained. The wastage of material when the article is exhausted is very small. The invention may thus be seen as a desirably ergonomic solution.

- Fig. 1 shows a fully assembled multi-dose dishwashing device
- Figs. 2A, 2B and 2C show the device of Fig. 1, disassembled
- Figs. 3A, 3B and 3C show respectively top plan view, side plan view and bottom plan views of the article in flat form.
- the device shown in Fig. 1 is made up of a holder 2 (Fig. 2A), a refill 4 (Fig. 2C) for location within the holder, and a lid or cap 6 (Fig. 2B) .
- the refill is a container in the form of a cylindrical roll, formed from a flat thermoformed water- insoluble plastics tray 8 of elongate parallel blister recesses 10 and a backing film or sheet 11. The tray and backing sheet are secured together by heat or adhesive.
- the open face of each blister recess 10 is formed all around its perimeter with an endless flange 12.
- Cleaning composition doses 6 comprising a low-water, free-running, liquid cleaning composition (intended in this embodiment to be used for cleaning in an automatic dishwasher machine) are introduced into the blister recesses.
- Each blister recess has opposed end walls, one of which, the upper end wall in use, has an opening 14.
- each upper opening 14 is circular, and ⁇ mm in diameter.
- Each such opening 12 is covered by a PVOH disc 15.
- a smaller opening 16 is formed in the lower end wall of each blister recess. In this embodiment each such opening is circular, and 2.5mm in diameter.
- Each such opening 16 is covered by a PVOH disc 17.
- each blister recess has a third opening 18, which is circular and 3mm in diameter. Each such opening is covered by a PVOH disc 19.
- a backing sheet is 11 secured, for example by heat sealing or adhesive, over the open blister recesses, to form the article with its discrete chambers.
- the flat article initially in the form of a rack or parallel linear array, of elongate dosage elements 6, may be curled into its nested form shown in Fig. 2C, with the backing sheet 11 outermost.
- the nested form is a generally cylindrical array. It may be retained in its nested form by a piece of adhesive tape 16.
- the backing may be printed on its outwards-directed side - the free face of backing sheet 11 - with information, for example a trade mark and/on, with product get-up, and/or with contents information, and/or with instructions for use.
- the dosage elements are provided with a separation 28 between them, on the backing sheet 11.
- the dosage elements taper in the inwards direction, and so have a separation 30 between them, at their distal end region, when in their nested form.
- the tray 8 has, as a result of the mould into which it is thermoformed during manufacture, preferential fold lines 32. These fold lines 32 are aligned with the spacings 28 between the dosage elements.
- the article of the invention is provided as a refill, supplied in its nested form shown in Fig. 2C.
- a refill supplied in its nested form shown in Fig. 2C.
- a nested from it is inserted by the customer into the holder 2, shown in Fig. 2A.
- the holder is a cylindrical tub having a hub-like axial projection 40 extending upwards from its base substantially the whole axial length of the tub. Projecting outwardly from the projection 40 are four fins 42, set at 90° intervals. The fins extend approximately four-tenths of the radial distance of the holder.
- the holder has a hanging handle 44.
- the bottom wall of the holder has a large opening (not shown) .
- the holder has a lid 6 shown in Fig. 2B.
- the lid has a central indexing device 46 surrounded by a sieve 48, to allow particulate-free water to enter the holder.
- the central indexing device has a push button 50 and, around it, a dial 54 carrying numbers, equalling the number of chambers.
- Each time the dishwasher is to be used the user presses the button to advance the control dial by one number, bringing the next chamber into use. This is done by rotating an apertured disc within the lid by one position so that water entering the holder must pass through the aperture thereof, now in alignment with the next chamber. Water enters the appropriate chamber through the opening 12 which is aligned with the opening within the lid, the PVOH disc 15 having very quickly been dissolved away.
- the chamber Water enters the chamber and dilutes the low-water liquid cleaning composition, leading to dissolution of the other PVOH discs 15, 19, as the cleaning composition becomes more dilute, and allowing the cleaning composition dose to leave the chamber through the lower and central openings 16, 18.
- the chamber is only 75% filled with the cleaning composition
- the fins 42 are located within spacings 30 of the nested article.
- the tolerance of the fins in the spacings 30 is not large and in this way it is assured, that the cleaning composition doses, and the upper openings 12, are in the correct orientation, to align with the opening within the lid.
- the arrangement is very space-efficient, in not taking up very much of the "footprint" available within the dishwashing machine.
- water-soluble closure members include the fact that they allow suitable liquid cleaning compositions to be used.
