My Dyson washing machine is still working every day after 20 odd years.  It was a great design which Dyson dropped as it was too expensive to manufacture.  The coin traps consist of a threaded clear module with a slide out spout.  I copied the original design and redrew it in Onshape.  The spout was very fiddly to get working well  but I just about got there.  If used with the original spout it may work better.  I also decided to redesign the trap to make this easier to operate.  If you have a 3D printer and a Dyson washing machine you may want to print a spare trap just in case it breaks.  I used ABS due to temperature considerations but you may need to seal the inside as 3D prints are sometimes not entirely waterproof.  Resin printing may work better.  Either way I learnt a lot designing them.  Both print with no support flat face down on the bed I bevelled the main thread to allow no support.
