Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cistern for a water closet according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • the cistern known from DE-A 25 58 318 has a two-armed lever for actuating the drain valve, which is directed with one arm against the underside of a pusher plate mounted in the lid. By pivoting the pusher plate, the valve of the waste set is opened by pulling up a central tube.
  • the pusher plate and the two-armed lever are separate parts that are mounted in the lid or on the box body.
  • a functional test under inspection of the box interior and thus at lifted lid is not possible to the desired extent with this cistern, since the lid also lifts the pusher plate and thus a substantial part of the actuating device is not included in the functional test.
  • Another disadvantage of this cistern is the fact that it is not readily possible to interrupt the flushing process. Cisterns with interruptible flushing are, however, increasingly required for economic and ecological reasons.
  • a cistern has become known from AU-A 420 994, in which a functional test with the cover removed is possible per se, but which consists of a box body, a frame placed on this and a cover in a very complex manner. In addition, flush interruption is also not possible with this cistern.
  • this is specially designed for pre-wall mounting with a built-in box body and also does not allow a functional test to the desired extent.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a cistern of the type mentioned, which is less expensive to manufacture and simpler in construction and which nevertheless allows an interruption of rinsing in a simple manner and a complete functional test with the lid open and which also meets all other practical requirements enough.
  • the actuating member remains on the cistern body when the lid is lifted and is fully functional.
  • the setting of the drain valve and the inlet valve can be carried out when the actuator is fully functional.
  • a cistern according to claim 4 has a particularly torsion-resistant lid and a more convenient view of its interior. Further advantageous developments result from the remaining dependent claims.
  • the cistern shown has a housing made of plastic, which consists of a box body 1 and a cover 6 placed thereon.
  • the interior fittings include a drain valve 10 of conventional design, which can be actuated by means of a button 11, with either a complete or partial emptying of the cistern being possible.
  • a float-operated inlet valve 14 is accommodated in the housing.
  • the box body 1 has a trapezoidal cross section with a rear wall 3 and a somewhat narrower front wall 2. To prevent condensation, insulation can be provided in the inside of the box.
  • the front wall 2 is less high than the rear wall 3 and the upper edge 4 is correspondingly lower than the edge 5 of the rear wall 3, as can be seen particularly well in FIG. 3.
  • the edges 29 run in a straight line, as shown in FIG. 1, at an angle of approximately 15 ° to the horizontal.
  • the opening of the box body 1 is thus larger than that of a comparable body with a horizontal dividing line between the box body and the lid.
  • the cover 11 has the same trapezoidal shape as the box body 1 and somewhat covers the edges 4, 5 and 29 according to FIG. 1, its outside However, the surface is largely flush with the outer surface of the box body 1.
  • the wall of the cover 11, starting from a horizontal plate 9, is pulled downwards on all sides to form a collar 37, and is considerably lower on the front than on the rear.
  • the front wall 27 of the collar 37 is approximately twice as high as the rear wall 38.
  • the cover 11 is sufficiently stable and connection-rigid with a comparatively low material consumption.
  • the cover 6 has a rhombic opening 8, into which a corresponding key 11 is inserted from below.
  • the key 11 has a key surface 12 accessible from above, which is flush with the outer surface of the cover 6 and which can be pivoted about an axis 25 to a limited extent by stops 15 and 39.
  • the valve tube 23 can, if desired, be pressed down and the flushing process can be interrupted prematurely.
  • the button 11 and the lever 13 thus form a two-armed lever.
  • the Swivel axis 25 the button surface 12 in two congruent areas.
  • the usual printing positions A and B are the farthest from the axis 25 and are arranged ergonomically advantageously diagonally to one another.
  • the lever 13 is offset somewhat to the front and is attached to the button 11 approximately below point B.
  • bearing pins 16 and 17 are arranged at the same height, which form two plain bearings with bearing surfaces 18 and 21.
  • One bearing surface 18 is formed by a notch 40 open at the top in the edge 5 of the rear wall 3 and the other bearing surface is formed by a corresponding recess in a bearing element 20 which is fastened to the front wall 2 and whose edge 4 projects above.
  • the bearing journal 17 has approximately the shape of a semicircular surface, the upper edge corresponding to the diameter being arranged parallel and at a distance from the lower edge 34 of the cover 6.
  • the journals 16 and 17 are rigidly connected to the button 11 by means of webs 30 and 31 which extend obliquely outwards.
  • the button 11 is fully functional even without a cover and allows the drain fitting to be actuated, even when the cover is lifted, which is essential for the functional test and the setting of the interior fitting. It can also be seen that the button 11 can be used with one handle without using tools.
  • 5a to 5c show, two dovetail-shaped holding elements 22 are formed on the bearing element 20 for its attachment, which are inserted into corresponding grooves 19 of the edge 4.
  • the bearing element 20 is glued below these elements 22 to the inside of the front wall 2.
  • the bearing element 20 is somewhat inclined according to the wall 27 and bears against it, so that the element 20 does not yield even when the button 11 is pressed strongly.
  • the button 11 By pressing the button 11 in the area of point A, it is pivoted about the axis 25 and the tube 23 is raised with the lever 13. If the button 11 is now released, the pipe 23 does not lower again until the cistern is completely emptied. In order to interrupt the flushing prematurely, the button 11 is pivoted back into the horizontal position approximately at the point B, thereby forcing the tube 23 downward into the position closing the drain valve.
