  • a plug has become known from CH-A-544 540, in which a projecting ear is provided on the upper side, to which one end of the chain is fastened by means of a two-part locking device.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a closure plug of the type mentioned, the fewer individual parts and the closure body on its upper side has no disruptive parts.

Abstract

Der Verschluss-Stöpsel weist einen Deckel (1) auf, der unter Aussparung eines ringförmigen Zwischenraums (15) auf einen Dichtungsteil (2) mit einer konischen Dichtungsfläche (8) aufgesetzt ist. Auf der Unterseite eines Deckelrandes (11) ist ein Ansatz mit einer halbkugelförmigen Ausnehmung angeordnet, in die ein Endglied (4) einer Kette (3) eingelegt ist. Diese ist damit unmittelbar und formschlüssig am Verschlusskörper befestigt und weist auf der Oberseite keine vorstehenden Teile auf, die bei seiner Verwendung in einem Ablaufventil einer Badewanne stören würden.The closure plug has a cover (1) which is placed on a sealing part (2) with a conical sealing surface (8), with the exception of an annular space (15). On the underside of a lid edge (11) there is an attachment with a hemispherical recess into which an end link (4) of a chain (3) is inserted. This is thus directly and positively attached to the closure body and has no protruding parts on the top that would interfere with its use in a drain valve of a bathtub.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verschluss-Stöpsel eines Ablaufventils mit einem eine ringförmige Dichtungsfläche aufweisenden Verschlusskörper, der an einer Kette befestigt ist.The invention relates to a plug of a drain valve with a closure body having an annular sealing surface, which is attached to a chain.

Im Stand der Technik ist durch die CH-A-544 540 ein Stöpsel bekannt geworden, bei dem an der oberen Seite ein vorste­hendes Ohr vorgesehen ist, an dem ein Ende der Kette mit­tels einer zweiteiligen Schliessvorrichtung befestigt ist.In the prior art, a plug has become known from CH-A-544 540, in which a projecting ear is provided on the upper side, to which one end of the chain is fastened by means of a two-part locking device.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Verschluss-­Stöpsel der genannten Gattung zu schaffen, der weniger Einzelteile und der Verschlusskörper auf seiner oberen Seite keine störenden Teile aufweist.The invention has for its object to provide a closure plug of the type mentioned, the fewer individual parts and the closure body on its upper side has no disruptive parts.

Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass ein Glied der Kette unmittelbar und formschlüssig am Verschlusskörper befestigt ist. Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen gekennzeichnet.The object is achieved in that a link of the chain is attached directly and positively to the closure body. Embodiments of the invention are characterized in the dependent claims.

Der Verschluss-Stöpsel hat den Vorteil eines einfachen Aufbaus mit nur wenigen Teilen. Vorstehende und umständlich zu montierende Verschlussteile werden vermieden.The plug has the advantage of a simple construction with only a few parts. Protruding and cumbersome to assemble locking parts are avoided.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nun anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 einen Schnitt durch einen Verschluss-Stöpsel nach einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung,
  • Fig. 2 eine Ansicht der Unterseite eines Deckels, und
  • Fig. 3 einen Schnitt durch den Deckel nach Fig. 2.
An embodiment of the invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to drawings. Show it:
  • 1 shows a section through a closure plug according to a preferred embodiment of the invention,
  • Fig. 2 is a view of the underside of a lid, and
  • 3 shows a section through the cover according to FIG. 2.

Der dargestellte Verschluss-Stöpsel gehört zu einer hier nicht dargestellten Ablaufgarnitur einer Badewanne. Ein ring­förmiger Dichtungsteil 2, z.B. aus weichem PVC, weist eine sich nach unten verjüngende Dichtungsfläche 8 auf, die im Schliesszustand an der komplementären Fläche des Ventil­sitzes anliegt. Auf den Dichtungsteil 2 ist ein Deckel 1 aus vergleichsweise hartem Kunststoff, beispielsweise POM (Polyoximethylen) aufgesetzt, der eine konvexe, sich nach aussen bis zur Dichtungsfläche 8 erstreckende obere Fläche 12 aufweist. Auf der Unterseite des Deckels 1 ist ein zylindrischer Hals 6 angeformt, der dicht an einem nach innen gerichteten Flansch 13 des Dichtungsteils 2 anliegt und diesen mit einem umlaufenden Absatz 5 hintergreift.The closure plug shown belongs to a drain fitting of a bathtub, not shown here. An annular sealing part 2, for example made of soft PVC, has a sealing surface 8 which tapers downwards and, in the closed state, bears against the complementary surface of the valve seat. A cover 1 made of comparatively hard plastic, for example POM, is on the sealing part 2 (Polyoximethylene) is placed, which has a convex upper surface 12 which extends outwards to the sealing surface 8. A cylindrical neck 6 is formed on the underside of the cover 1 and bears tightly against an inwardly directed flange 13 of the sealing part 2 and engages behind it with a circumferential shoulder 5.

Vom Hals 6 aus erstreckt sich nach aussen ein Rand 11, der auf seiner Unterseite auf dem Dichtungsteil 2 aufliegt. Zwischen dem Rand 11 und dem Dichtungsteil 2 ist ein ringförmiger Raum 15 ausgespart, in den ein Endglied 4 einer Kugelkette 3 gelegt ist. Wie die Fig. 2 und 3 zeigen, liegt dieses Glied 4 in einer halbkugelförmigen Ausnehmung 14 eines auf der Unterseite des Randes 11 angeordneten An­satzes 7. Dieser Ansatz 7 ist durch zwei Flanken 9 ver­stärkt und weist einen engen Schlitz 10 auf, der ebenfalls, jedoch etwas breiter als ein Zwischenglied 20 im Rand 11 weitergeführt ist.An edge 11 extends outward from the neck 6 and rests on the sealing part 2 on its underside. An annular space 15 is recessed between the edge 11 and the sealing part 2, in which an end link 4 of a ball chain 3 is placed. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, this link 4 lies in a hemispherical recess 14 of a lug 7 arranged on the underside of the edge 11. This lug 7 is reinforced by two flanks 9 and has a narrow slot 10 which is also, however is slightly wider than an intermediate member 20 in the edge 11.

Das Endglied 4 kann gleich ausgebildet sein, wie die übri­gen Kettenglieder. Beim Zusammenbau der Teile wird die Kugel 4 in die Ausnehmung 14 gelegt und der Dichtungskör­per 2 auf den Deckel 1 aufgesetzt. Da der Teil 2 lösbar befestigt ist, kann die Kette 3 nötigenfalls in ebenso ein­facher Weise ausgewechselt werden. Der Deckel 1 ist aus einem Material gefertigt, das sich gut in diversen Farben einfärben lässt.The end link 4 can be of the same design as the other chain links. When assembling the parts, the ball 4 is placed in the recess 14 and the sealing body 2 is placed on the cover 1. Since part 2 is detachably fastened, chain 3 can be replaced in an equally simple manner if necessary. The lid 1 is made of a material that can be easily colored in various colors.
