Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a controlled operation device for discharge valves, particularly in water storage cisterns of sanitary equipment.
  • the present invention consists of a controlled operation device for discharge valves, particularly for water storage cisterns in sanitary and similar equipment, comprising a supporting body which is made integral with a hollow cylinder within which is inserted a slidable rod having a spring located coaxially with it and having its upper end integral with a push botton, the body being attachable by means of a threaded collar to the lid of the cistern characterized in that the supporting body comprises a housing within which are located transversely rotating means and guiding means respectively consisting of a flat plate with an appropriate profile and longitudinally slotted holes formed in this plate, the device further comprises two arms of transmitting the motion from the rod to a lever of operating the shut-off valve, the upper parts of the arms are constrained to slide within the guide slots by pins or similar elements and their lower parts are hinged to the lever, seats for engagement with the free end of the rod being present on the upper surface of the arms, the lever is hinged on a pivot forming the centre of rotation of
  • the controlled operation device indicated as a whole by 1 comprises a supporting body 2 whose horizontal upper edge 2a is connected to a hollow cylinder 3 having its upper end provided with a thread 3a.
  • a rod 4 having a central body 4a of circular section and a lower end part 4b also of circular section but of smaller diameter; the rod 4 also has an upper end 4c threaded for engagement with a push button 5 for operation of the discharge and a collar 4d retaining the upper end of a spring 13 located coaxially with the rod 4, the other end of the spring being prevented from emerging by the rim of a through hole 14 in the lower end 4b of the rod 4.
  • a housing 2b is formed for the location of a plate 6 rotating about a pivot 7 which is integral with the body 2, the plate being provided with two longitudinal guide slots 6a and 6b arranged symmetrically about the vertical axis of symmetry of the device.
  • the mechanism is completed by two arms 8a and 8b hinged at their lower ends to two pivots 9a and 9b of a lever 9 which in turn is hinged to the pivot 7 and made integral with the plate 6 by means of a key 7a, and with a hook 10 for connection to the shut-off valve, which is not illustrated, by means of another end pivot 9c.
  • the upper ends of the arms have pins 11a and 11b constrained to slide in the guides 6a and 6b and upper surfaces having notches 12a and 12b to facilitate the engagement of the arms with the free lower end of the rod 4.
  • the device 1 is made integral with the lid 15 of the water storage cistern by means of a collar 16 screwed on to the thread 3a of the hollow cylinder 3, the actuating push button 5 screwed to the rod 4 being slidable within the collar.
  • the device according to the invention has its push button 5 and rod 4 raised the spring 13 extended, the arm 12b raised and the arm 12a lowered, the rotating plate 2 rotated to the left, and lever 9 lowered and held in position by the pressure exerted on the shut-off valve by the volume of water contained in the cistern.
