A jet splitter (9, 10) with a plurality of splitter openings (11, 13) is provided in the liquid path, and the splitter openings divide the through-flowing water into a plurality of individual jets. At least one grid or mesh structure (14, 15) follow the jet splitter (9, 10) in the liquid path, and at least one bypass duct (16) which bypasses the liquid path at least in certain portions is provided. The bypass duct (16) is formed as a nozzle for generating at least one accelerated liquid jet, and for this purpose, the at least one bypass duct (16) has a tapering clear duct cross section at least in a sub-portion.
