Definitions

  • the invention relates to surface-mounted housings for flushing fittings, namely electronically controlled urinal fittings with internal energy supply.
  • Such fittings are already known (DE-OS 34 14 510).
  • a device for electronic contactless control of a fitting is generally described for the sanitary area, such as is required for washstands, urinals or the like, in which the opening and / or closing operations for the fitting are made by means of a transmitter / receiver device is triggered by the actuation of at least one solenoid valve by a person moving in the transmission / reception area.
  • optoelectronic sensors or suitable other sensing elements which can work, for example, in the microwave range, are used for triggering.
  • each of the sensor technologies used serves to actuate a solenoid valve to open and close the water supply to the fitting instead of the self-closing fittings to be triggered manually.
  • the trigger mechanism to be actuated by an electrical and / or electronic control has so far had the disadvantage of network dependency, i.e. the supply of an electrical current to the control unit via power cables.
  • the housing is designed in two parts, in the sense that a flushing pipe cladding connects to a cover, which completely covers the entire flushing pipe area between the urinal and electronic control unit with a freely selectable distance selection within certain limits, ultimately results in a single cladding, which forms a harmonious whole with the urinal itself, whereby both the installation of the entire unit and the operational service can be significantly improved and facilitated compared to previously known comparable systems.
  • the displaceability of the flushing pipe cladding with respect to the cover, the telescopic insertion of one or more such flushing pipe cladding parts optimizes the installation options even under the most difficult conditions, the locking of a single pipe clamp being sufficient to bring the system into position.
  • the rinsing pipe cladding is made of a thermoplastic material and is provided in a grid-like manner along the invisible inside, the assembly is further simplified and the respective adaptability is optimally improved.
  • Fig. 1 shows the electronic water control device with an optoelectronic sensor for a urinal fitting in longitudinal section.
  • the valve is applied with its individual control elements essentially to a wall board 10, which is penetrated by a water connection piece 7, the wall board 10 can be attached to the plaster of a wall, not shown, or in most cases of the sanitary facilities of interest here the wall tiles of the same is screwed on.
  • the electronically controlled urinal fitting essentially comprises a solenoid valve 6 connected downstream of the water connection stub 7 and connected to it via a lockable quantity regulation 17, which is controlled by the electronic unit 8, which in turn receives its energy supply from a battery 9.
  • the power consumption of the electronics 8 is designed so that the internal energy supply is sufficient for normal continuous operation, for example two years.
  • control electronics are designed so that two different water flow programs that can be set via a selector switch can be set, but any expansion of the number of programs is conceivable.
  • the electronics unit 8 supplied by the battery 9 via the line 20 opens and closes the water supply for the connecting piece 7 via the solenoid valve 6 to an angle connector 19, which releases the water to the flushing pipe 4, which in turn opens directly into the urinal basin not set.
  • the flushing pipe 4, which is mounted directly on the tiles or at a standardized distance from them, like the wall plate 10, is detachably fastened to the angle connector 19 by means of a union nut 18.
  • a cover 1 which can be made from a stamped sheet metal part, a die-cast metal part or from a plastic part, which is detachably screwed onto the wall plate 10 via the upper and lower centering pins 12 and the locking screw 13.
  • An opening 14 within the cover 1 releases the optoelectronic sensor, which reacts to the presence of a user in a predetermined angular range, but can only be activated after a set blocking time.
  • the device In the idle position, the device operates in what is known as standby mode, that is to say with minimal energy consumption, and only when a user is present switches to the operating position and, after leaving the area of influence of the optoelectronic reflection sensor, triggers the purging. If the urinal basin is not used for a long time, which creates the risk that the sealing water of the odor trap could dry out, the electronic control automatically triggers the water flow, which can be useful, for example, every 24 hours or in another time period.
  • the solenoid valve is brought into the closed position and the device is switched off.
  • the control device is overlapped by the cover 1 is attached above the urinal basin, while the urinal basin itself is fastened vertically below the cover to the tiled wall.
  • a unit can easily replace a manually operated self-closing valve, for example, or be installed in its place.
  • the optoelectronic sensor within the opening 14 of the cover 1 can be fastened to the cover 1 via the screw fastening 11 and set in a suitable manner.
  • the flushing pipe cover 2 is used, which is telescopically inserted into the underside of the cover 1 and here, when fully inserted, preferably extends up to over half the height of the cover 1 into it .
  • the guide 21 serves for the upper fixing of the flushing pipe cladding 2, while this is fixed in the lower region, ie directly on or above the upper end of the urinal basin, by means of a pipe clamp 3 which overlaps the flushing pipe 4 and a threaded connector / screw arrangement 5.
  • a slide insert 15 made of a suitable foam or sealing material not only serves to cleanly close the interior of the cover 1 from the environment, but at the same time serves as a kind of anti-slip device during assembly, ie the length adjustment of the flushing pipe cladding 2 required in relation to the cover 1. Also via the pipe clamp attachment can easily offset the axis between the flushing pipe 4 and the flushing pipe cladding 2 Be balanced during assembly.
  • the flushing pipe cladding 2 can be moved in this way with the aid of the pipe clamp 3 on the flushing pipe 4, the upper part of the flushing pipe cladding projecting more or less into the cover 1 in the telescopic shape shown.
  • the rinsing pipe cladding 2 does not only consist of a single piece of pipe but also of several individual pieces which are telescopically pushed one inside the other.
  • the entirety of the device is designed so that the rinsing pipe cladding 2 is not guided from below into the cover 1, but for example laterally, which would be possible in principle, but should lead to an undesirable variety of individual parts.
  • At least the manufacture of the flushing pipe cladding from a suitable thermoplastic can be advantageous in that predetermined breaking points could be introduced into the inner wall of this cladding, which could simplify a particularly optimal adaptation of the front end area of the flushing pipe cladding to this shape in the case of different urinal pool curvatures, which is equally true for die-cast metal applies.
  • 2 and 3 show the two-part design of the device with the covering hood 1 and its rounded edge guides in connection with the flushing pipe cladding 2 which can be moved against it.
  • the device which can advantageously be used for retrofitting purposes, that is to say for the replacement of previously used manually operated self-closing valves by the flushing device which can be operated electronically without a prescription, specifies particularly advantageous possibilities for the various assembly dimensions and the adjustment requirements made thereon.
  • the hood and flushing pipe cladding as is clear from FIGS. 2 and 3, are designed in such a way that they form a unitary whole together with the urinal basin, not shown, and form and form a harmonious whole. Only gap-free smooth surfaces with rounded edge guides that can be cleaned easily remain.
