Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cistern drain valve with a valve piece, which is moved by the actuation of an associated actuating device in the open position, remains in this until the flushing process is complete and then falls back into the closed position, the valve piece prematurely in due to an actuation of the actuating device the closed position can be moved back.
  • the flushing process can be interrupted prematurely by actuating the operating element in the opposite direction to the triggering movement.
  • the structure is simple. But if the control element is not designed as a rocker switch, it must be operated in the opposite direction, which is not very easy to use. In addition, the control element must then have an appropriate means of attack. But this is for cisterns in which the actuation button z. B, is arranged flush with the surface in the middle of the lid, not given easily.
  • a major disadvantage of the conventionally opposing interrupt actuation is that the usual remote actuations, which normally only have one direction of action, cannot be used.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of creating a cistern drain valve of the generic type, with which the simple construction of the Flushing process is to be interrupted by a second actuation of the control element in the same direction as when the trigger is actuated.
  • the direction of action of the transmission mechanism between the operating element and the valve piece is thus automatically predetermined by the state of the cistern that is encountered when actuated. If the cistern is filled, the drain valve is opened when it is actuated (trigger actuation). A second rectified actuation during the flushing process, on the other hand, closes the drain valve prematurely (interruption actuation).
  • the drain valve closes automatically after discharge of the full Spülmen g e.
  • the filling process starts later accordingly.
  • a further actuation if necessary only when the water level is high, triggers the rinsing process again.
  • Such a cistern drain valve is very easy to use. It leaves all possibilities open with regard to the design of the control element, for example the push button, in particular also a surface-flush and central arrangement in the cistern lid. Simple remote controls can also be used. Further preferred embodiments of such a cistern drain valve are characterized in the subclaims. There are shown examples of structurally simple reversing devices which respond to various changes in the state of the cistern resulting from the valve opening and closing. For example, the flow rate of the flushing water, the height of the water level, the behavior of the cistern fill valve or the respective position of the drain valve itself can serve as control variables.
  • Figure 1 shows the filled and ready-to-flush cistern 1.
  • the upper pushbutton 2 is connected to the switch housing 4 via the rod 3. This moves with the actuation (upper filled arrow) relative to the vertical switching arm 5 of the angle lever 6 and pivots it to the left.
  • the fork-like arm of the angle lever 6 opens the coupled valve piece 7 and the flushing process begins.
  • Devices (not shown) (float, pawls or the like) ensure in the usual way that the valve piece 7 remains open even after the pushbutton 2 has been lifted back - that is to say after the triggering operation has been completed.
  • the control elements 8, 9 or 10 are responsible for the different directions of action of the switch housing 4. Depending on the operating state of the cistern, they assume different positions and transmit them via the coupling rod 11 to a switching element 41 arranged in the switch housing 4.
  • the control element 8 reacts to the flushing current. It is designed as a rotatable angle lever.
  • the buoyancy of the float chamber 81 arranged on the horizontal arm ensures the drawn starting position.
  • the vertical arm, which engages in the coupling rod 11, defines its left position. After the actuation of the trigger, the flow begins. It overcomes the buoyancy of the float chamber 81 and swivels the angle lever in the direction of the arrow.
  • the coupling rod 11 is moved into its right position.
  • the control member 9 reacts to the water level in the box.
  • This element is also designed as a rotatably mounted angle lever, the vertical arm of which acts on the coupling rod 11.
  • the float chamber 91 is arranged on the horizontal arm, the buoyancy of which ensures the starting position shown. After the trigger is activated, the water level drops. The buoyancy is eliminated and the weight of the water chamber 92 pivots the control member 9 in the direction of the arrow, which the coupling rod 11 follows.
  • the control element 10 reacts to the outflow of the filling valve 13.
  • the compression spring 101 ensures the left position of the piston 102 and thus the coupling rod 11.
  • the water level drops and the filling valve 13 opens.
  • the throttle 132 of the filling line 131 ensures pressure build-up in the control line 103.
  • the piston 102 pushes the control member 10 and with it the coupling rod 11 to the right.
  • FIG. 2 shows the switch housing 4 'on an enlarged scale.
  • the switching piece 41 'connected to the coupling rod 11 is guided to be horizontally displaceable.
  • the starting position of the switching element 41 'and of the fork-like switching arm 5' interacting with it is shown in solid lines.
  • the switch position shown in dashed lines is reached and the flushing process begins.
  • This end position is the starting position shown in solid line in FIG. 4 for the subsequent return stroke of the actuation (retrospective relative movement of the bearing journal 51 - see arrow).
  • the control pin 57 slides downward behind its control edge 44 and locks the end position of the switching arm 5 ′′.
  • the left control pin 54 detaches from its control edge 42 and springs back into its original relative position to the control arm 5 ".
  • the right control pin '55 slides onto the run-up slope 43, the upright left-hand edge of the edge takes over the locking of the pivot position before the Control pin 57 leaves its control edge 44.
  • the end position of the return stroke is shown in dashed lines
  • the right control pin 55 is locked behind the control edge 42.
  • the control pins are not hindered by the stationary control contours in the unactuated state.
  • the switching arm 5 ′′ can therefore be pivoted back into its original starting position even without a renewed double stroke by slight forces acting from outside, which only have to overcome the friction of the bearing journal 51. This is shown by the unfilled arrows in FIG. 4. In this respect, the closing movement of the valve piece 7 coupled to the switching arm 5 "is not hindered when the entire contents of the box have expired.
  • a hydraulically operated drain valve is shown in FIG. 5 as an example of the general applicability.
  • the actuation valve 14 is opened when the trigger is actuated (upper filled arrow).
  • the line pressure in front of the filling valve 13 passes through the control line 15 and the switching valve 16 under the piston 71, and the coupled valve piece 7 opens.
  • each of the control elements shown in FIG. 1 can shift the switching valve 16 to the right via the coupling rod 11.
  • An interruption actuation during the rinsing process (upper unfilled arrow) will then apply pressure to the piston 71 from above, and the valve piece 7 closes (lower unfilled arrow).
  • the pressure pulse runs via the pilot valve 17 to the right end of the switching valve 16 'and pushes it to the left.
  • This position is self-holding, that is to say independent of the further movement of the pilot valve 17.
  • the switching valve 16 After the actuation of the trigger, the switching valve 16 is moved back into its neutral central position by spring force.
  • the pressure pulse switches the switching valve 16 ′ to the right in a self-retaining manner due to the changed position of the pilot valve 17, and the piston 72 moves the valve piece 7 in the closing direction.
  • the initial state is thus reached again.
  • the pilot valve 17 is to be kept friction-free to the extent that this movement is not hindered.
