Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for actuating the valve for emptying a flush tank, in particular a flush tank for toilet bowls.
  • the flush tanks are all equipped with a draining device; they are generally located either in height and the emptying device is actuated by a lever extended by a chain or other known means, or just above the toilet bowl and are generally covered with a cover provided with a button that must be pushed in or pulled out to activate the drain.
  • the devices actuated by a zipper if they make it possible to interrupt the flow by pushing the zipper down, have the drawback of being fragile: they twist, are torn off or broken.
  • This device provides a member on the side of the tank, tilting around an axis, in two positions.
  • the organ is connected to the axis of the valve by an arm which makes lever so that one position of the organ actuates the lever which opens the valve, and the other position of the organ actuates inversely the lever , which closes the valve.
  • this device cannot be placed on the covers with axial opening.
  • the present invention aims to solve these drawbacks. It relates to an actuating device for emptying a flushing tank valve of the type with an actuating member tilting in two positions, one opening and the other closing the valve, the tank being of the cover type. with central opening for operating member, the device comprising: - a body rigidly mounted on its bottom, - a valve carried by a vertical tube movable axially in the body of the device, - a connecting rod, offset with respect to the axis of the tube, intended to control the movements of said tube, - a rod operating lever, articulated on a horizontal axis, a lever operating rod, located substantially in the axis of the tube, mechanically linked on the one hand to the lever, on the other hand to the operating member, and guided in a sheath mounted integral with the tank and transversely immobile, characterized in that the mechanical connection between the rod and the lever is carried out by means of a finger carried by the rod and sliding in an oblong slot in the lever, and,
  • the device is also remarkable for the following characteristics: -
  • the operating member is mounted tilting about a horizontal axis.
  • the link is offset from the tilting axis of the operating member and the axis of the control rod.
  • the oblong opening is located between the pivot axis of the lever and its opposite extremity of articulation to the connecting rod -
  • the rod has a movable nut along the rod by thread and carrying the connecting finger, intended to adapt the position of said finger along the rod, that is to say the distance of the link "rod-lever "at the link” rod-actuator "to the dimensions of the tank / -
  • the lever has two identical parallel arms, one on each side of the rod.
  • the automatic closing of the valve causes, by the mechanical connection "tube-connecting rod-lever-rod-rod", the return to the closed position of the operating member.
  • the operating member has a flat circular base near the pivot axis and has a hemispherical upper face hollowed symmetrically with respect to the axis so that at each of the two positions the member has a projecting face on which a finger can support to cause tilting, the other side being coincident and in continuity with the immediately adjacent surface.
  • the upper extremity of the body of the device comprises a sleeve of generally cylindrical shape, fixed in height, provided with a threaded opening intended to receive the sheath, -
  • the sheath has externally a thread intended to cooperate with that of the sleeve, and above a bearing shoulder on the outer face of the cover, so that the sheath is mounted and immobilized by screwing in the sleeve.
  • the threads of the sheath and the rod are coaxial and likewise not in order to simultaneously place the rod in the nut and the sheath in the sleeve, which has the advantage of considerably simplifying the assembly: at the time of putting in place, the parts are assembled simultaneously and there is no longer any need to adjust.
  • the invention is not limited to this specific form of operating member; and any other member capable of tilting around a horizontal axis is an equivalent falling within the scope of the invention. .
  • the actuating rod be vertical, with or without a sheath: it is possible to tilt it, even to the horizontal, and to transmit the movement produced by tilting on the lever equivalently.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the interior of a flush tank 1, crossed by the actuating device of the drain valve.
  • This tank 1 comprises a tank 2 with a bottom 3, pierced with an opening 4 or drain plug, and a cover 5 pierced with an opening 6 intended to receive the operating member 16 of the actuating device.
  • the emptying device includes: - A valve 7, of known type carried by a tube 8, hollow, vertical, vertically movable inside a rigid body 42, fixed on the bottom 3 of the tank 2, and comprising at its inner end a seal in sealing rubber 38.
  • a valve 7 of known type carried by a tube 8, hollow, vertical, vertically movable inside a rigid body 42, fixed on the bottom 3 of the tank 2, and comprising at its inner end a seal in sealing rubber 38.
  • the valve When the tube rests on the bottom 3, the valve is closed and the tank can be filled with water. If the water in the tank 2 exceeds the level of the upper end of the tube 8, it flows into the hollow of the tube and is discharged.
  • - A connecting rod 9 capable of controlling the vertical movements of the tube 8, offset relative to the axis of the tube.
  • the tube 8 has at its end upper a flange 10 having laterally an extension on which the lower end 11 of the connecting rod 9 is articulated. a lever 12 for operating the connecting rod 9.
  • This lever is articulated at one end 13 on a horizontal axis 17, fixed relative to the cover 5 of the reservoir 1, and it is articulated at the connecting rod 9 at its opposite end 14.
  • a rod 15 for controlling the lever 12 this rod, on the one hand passes through the opening 6 provided in the cover, on the other hand is mechanically linked to the lever 12.
  • an operating member 16 accessible from the outside, mechanically linked to the rod 15 for controlling the lever 12.
  • This member has two stable positions corresponding to the closed positions 27, the other open positions 26 as indicated on Figure 1 by the arrows, and the passage from one position 27 to the other 26 of the actuator 16, causes the correlative passage of the tube 8 and the valve 7 from one 27 ′, 27 ⁇ to the other 26 ′, 26 ⁇ from their positions and vice versa.
  • the rod-lever link 19 is located between the two ends 13, 14 of the lever 12, on the side of the hinge pin 17 in order to increase the displacement of the end 14 of the lever when the rod-lever link moves, this reduction allows the opening and closing of the valve 7.
  • the length of the lever is calculated so that the reduction is adapted to the flow of water.
  • control rod 15 is guided in a sheath 18, integral with the reservoir 1 and immobile, and the rod-lever linkage 19 is produced by means of at least one finger 20 carried by the rod 15 and sliding in a slot 21 oblong to the lever 12.
  • the rod 15 is vertical, located substantially in the axis of the tube 8 and it extends downwards 22 into the tube in order to serve as a displacement guide for the tube.
  • the lever has two identical parallel arms, which extend on each side of the rod. And in this example, in the closed position 27, the arms are in a substantially horizontal position.
  • the rod 15 is threaded (40) and carries a nut 23.
  • the latter has the shape of a sleeve or a tubular ring and has internally a thread intended to cooperate with the thread of the rod.
  • the nut is integral with the rod and can be moved along its threaded part, by a relative rotation of the nut and the rod.
  • the nut carries two coaxial fingers 20 which extend on each side of the rod 15 and each pass through the oblong opening of the corresponding arm of the lever; the nut is thus immobilized in rotation, and when the device is mounted in the reservoir 1, the rod can be placed in height relative to the cover 5, by rotation in the thread of the nut 23.
  • the sheath has externally a thread 41, and above a shoulder 43 intended to come into abutment against the external face of the cover 5.
  • the pivot axis 17 of the lever 12 is mounted on a sleeve 24, of generally cylindrical shape; this sleeve is integral with the upper end of the body 42 of the device, itself rigidly mounted on the bottom 3 of the tank 2.
  • the upper end of the sleeve 24 is therefore fixed in height. It has an opening 25 in the form of a thread intended to receive, guide and hold the threaded sheath 18.
  • the threads of the opening 25 and the nut 23 are coaxial and not identical.
  • the device is put in place successively as follows: - The body 42 is fixed to the bottom of the tank 2; - The rod 15 is mounted in the sheath 18; - The rod and the sheath are screwed through the opening 6 of the cover respectively in the sleeve 24 and in the nut 23.
  • the shoulder 43 of the sheath comes to bear on the cover, the screwing movement pulls the sleeve 24 to the top.
  • the gain-sleeve connection is therefore rigid: the two parts 24 and 18 are immobilized and the device is mounted.
  • the drawing illustrates the case where the sleeve 24 abuts against the internal place of the cover, but this arrangement is not necessary.
  • the mechanical connection 29 rod-operating member is produced by a link 28, integral with the operating member 16 and cooperating with a lateral extension of the rod 15 in the form of a ramp 30.
  • the operating member is pivotally mounted around a horizontal axis 31, and the link 28 is mounted offset relative to this pivoting axis 31 and relative to the axis 32 of the control rod 15.
  • the member 16 When the member 16 switches from the closed position 27 to the open position 26, it drives the link 28 which moves with the ramp; the end of the rod travels in a circular path and slides on the underside of the ramp by lifting it with the rod.
  • the displacement 26 ′ of the rod necessarily involves that of the nut 20 and the fingers 21 which raise the lever 12; this movement is transmitted to tube 8 and the valve opens.
  • the device makes it possible to interrupt the flow of water during the emptying of the tank: the operating member 16 being in the open position 26, the fact of tilting it in the opposite closed position 27, drives the ramp 30 downwards, and with it the rod 15 (closing movement 27 ′), the lever 12, the connecting rod 9, the tube 8 and the valve 7 closes (27 ⁇ ).
  • the actuating member can have various conformations: it is only preferred tilting and comprising a connecting rod offset relative to the axis 31 of tilting.
  • the operating member 16 comprises a circular base 34 and a hemispherical upper face recessed symmetrically with respect to the tilting axis 31; this hemisphere 35 is pivotally mounted, by two pins 36 in a box 37 secured to the sheath 18.
  • the sheath 18 and the housing 37 are formed in a single block, for example in molded plastic.
  • the recess is cylindrical, with an axis parallel to the tilting axis 31 so that at each of the positions 26 or 27, the member has an edge which merges with the edge of the housing 37 or of any other surface. immediately adjacent, the other edge projecting and having a bearing face for tilting.
