Abstract
WASTE WATER CONDUIT MODULE
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
The waste water module comprises two parts (8, 9) joined together in an articulated manner. One part (9) is a separately produced connecting bend which is joined to part (8) in a bifurcation of a collector connecting conduit (2) in a rotationally articulated and axially fixed manner. The axis of rotation (A) of the swivel joint preferably extends parallel to the longitudinal direction (C) of the collector connecting conduit (2). Adaptation to different connection levels and depths is obtained by rotation of the two parts (8, 9) about the axis of rotation (A) or respectively the longitudinal direction (C) of the conduit (2).

Description
~ ~ u ~
The presene invention relates to a waste water conduit module for a collector conduit to be connected to a down line, comprising a straight collector pipe connectsble at both ends by plugging and in a liquidproof manner, and a branch connected to this pipe.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A waste water conduit module system with a module of this type has been manufactured by the applicant for some time and has proved satisfactory in itself. The basic concept of this system is that an installation element has a certain conduit module assigned to it. The conduit module assortment encompasses a conduit module for sinks, a conduit module for toilets) and a conduit module for bidets. This system has the advantage over non-modular systems that fewer shaped parts must be available at the construction site and the assortment can be kept to a minimum. It has been unavoidable, however, that the module of this system welding has been necessary for adaptation to the particular connection level.
For connecting a toilet bowl, a conduit module is known where a pipe bend is connected by one leg to an inclined nipple of a collector pipe in a manner axially displaceable in telescopic fashion. Position tolerances may be compensated by axial displacement of the pipe bend. With this connecting arrangement, welding can be avoided only when connecting a toilet bowl.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An object of the invention is to provide a waste water conduit module of the above type with which the knownassortment of conduit modules can be reduced and in which welding for adaptation to different levels and depths is avoided.
The crux of the present invention resides in the fact that the conduit module is in two parts and a separately manufactured part is a connecting bend which is joined to the other part in a rotationally articulated and axially fixed manner.
In the waste water conduit module ~ccording to the invention, ^
each conduit module is made of two separately manufactured plastic parts. In the region of the bifurcation, the two parts are joined together in a rotationally articulated manner. The adaptation to different levels and depths is achieved by rotation of both parts about their axis of rotation in a simple and precise manner. This makes it possible to achieve a simple and expedient installation because it is sufficient to cut the parts to length and to plug them together. Welding at the construction site is no longer necessary with the ~aste water conduit module according to the invention. Thus, fewer parts and also fewer tools are needed at the site.
It has been found that a particularly favorable adaptability to the connection levels is obtained when in the module of the ~Vi)~ ;Ll invention the axis of rotation extends parsllel to the collector pipe. This module is suitable for connecting all common units, as for instance sinks, urinals, washing machines, tubs and shower tubs, dishwashing sinks, as well as bidets. In the csse of this module, the connecting bend can be pivoted into any desired inclination. Thus an axial offset adaptation to a great variety of plumbing units both horizontally and vertically is possible.
Other advantageous features and advantsges will become evident from the further dependent patent claims and from the following description of the drawings.
An example of an embodiment of the waste water conduit module system according to the invention will be explained more specifically below with reference to the drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a waste water collector conduit partly in cross section, at a down line and with sanitary units shown only schematically;
Fig. 2 is a cross sec~ion along line II-II in Fig. l;
Fig. 3 is schematically, a collector conduit with a connected bathtub; and Fig. 4 is schematically, a bidet connected to a waste water collector conduit.
Fig. 1 shows here only schematically a toilet installation 12 and a washing machine connection 13 which are connected via a collector connecting conduit 2 to a down line 3. The collector ~ 1 U ~;J h 1 1 connecting conduit 2 is, as usual, inclined relative to the floor 1, for instance with a gradient of 0.5 cm per meter.
In the case of the embodiment of shown collector connecting conduit 2, two conduit modules 4 and 7 are plugged together and are coupled by a conduit pipe 11, plugged similarly at both ends, with a nipple 3a of the down line 3. An additional pipe section 10 may be connected to additional modules at the other end of the collector connecting conduit 2.
The conduit module 4 consists of a collector pipe 5 and a connecting bend 6 bent at an angle of 90~, which are manufactured separately as shaped parts. Collector pipe 5 has an end 5a with a lip seal ring 5e inserted in an inner groove as well as an opposite end 5b which is slipped into an end 8a of an additional collector pipe 8 and which is sealed liquidproof by a seal ring 8e The two ends 5a and 8a may be of the same design. The collector pipe 5 has in addition a comparatively short branch 5c, inclined at an angle of 45 with respect to the longitudinal direction of conduit 2 and likewise having a seal ring 5d inserted in an inner groove. The connecting bend 6 is slipped into the branch 5c. As shown, bend 6 has two elastically deflectable, hook-like arms 6c disposed on the outer side of bend 6. The arms 6c embrace a collar 5f of branch 5c and allow a limited displaceability of bend 6 in the longitudinal direction of branch 5c. In eYery extension position a rotation of bend 6 about the axis of the rotationally art;culated connection of the two parts 6 and 5 is possible. The lengths of the arms 6c are such that also i~ the end position shown in Fig. 1 the two parts 5 and 6 are joined togeeher liquidproof. The other end of the connecting bend 6 also has a seal ring, not shown, which seals bend 6 to an extension piece, also not shown. Bend 6 and the extension piece are also rotatable about the connection axis as desired and are displaceable in the axial direction to a limited extent.
The conduit module 7 for connection of a washing machine, not shown here, also has two separately manufactured parts 8 and 9, joined together liquidproof and forming a swivel joint having an axis of rotation A which is parallel to the longitudinal direction C of the collector connecting conduit 2. Unlike the swivel joint of module 4, the swivel joint of module 7 is axially fixed. For this purpose, a branch 8c has integrally formed on it lu~s 8f which span an outer flange 9b of the bent end 9a of the other part 9.
Flange 9b and the lugs 8f are interlocked and permit infinitely variable rotation of parts 8 and 9 on axis A. Moreover end 9a has several grooves 9c into which two seal rings 8d are inserted. A~
the outer end a peripheral s~epped guide ring 9e is integrally formed. The other end 9d of part 9 is substantially longer snd serves to receive an extension pipe 17 and may moreover be cut to length. Pipe 17 connects part 9 to the washing machine connection 13, which consists of known conduit parts 13a, 13b and 13c.
The two conduit modules 4 and 7 are rotatable around the longitudinal axis C of the collector connecting conduie 2 independently of each other. Thus the waste water conduit module .
~J U~
system consists of the two modules 4 and 7. The collector connecting conduit 2 may, of course, be composed of such modules 4 and 7 in any desired manner and it is clear that Fig. 1 shows simply one possible example of such a collector connecting conduit.
Figures 2 to 4 show views in longitudinal direction of the collector connecting conduit 2. Figures 3 and 4 show schematically the connection of a tub 15 and of a bidet 16, respectively. Here, one end of part 9 extends horizontally and is fitted into a likewise horizontal zone of a siphon 15a and 16a, respectively.
Adaptation to different connection heights of tub 15 or of bidet 16 is here obtained by rotating the parts 8 and 9 about the axes C and A, respectively.
