Definitions

  • the invention relates to a remote control device for controlling the water and / or air supply nozzles of a bathtub and possibly other functions, such as circulation pump intensity, underwater lighting or the like, with a hand-held remote control device comprising a command key and at least one transmitter diode a stationary reception diode connected to the functional elements to be controlled is assigned, and with a stationary device shelf which can be reached by hand by the user of the bathtub and serves to hold the hand-held remote control device.
  • the receiving diode is arranged in the region of an additional stationary control device which, like the hand-held remote control device, has a keypad comprising command buttons and a Display field in the form of a viewing window is equipped.
  • the stationary device tray is assigned to the stationary control device and is used to hold the remote control device when it is not in use.
  • the desired functions can thus be triggered in this known device either from the stationary remote control device, which is fixed on the tub edge, or selected and added with the separate, additional hand-held remote control device.
  • the structural effort for the remote control either on the one hand via the handheld remote control device and on the other hand via the stationary remote control device fixed on the tub edge is extremely high.
  • the device storage comprises a stationary receiving diode which is aligned with the associated transmitting diode of the hand-held remote control device which can only be stored in a predetermined position.
  • the handheld remote control device which can be grasped by the user and the desired function can be triggered via the keyboard, can be stored in a conveniently accessible range on the device shelf in a predetermined position in such a way that it is due to the then given orientation of the device Transmitting diode on the receiving diode can also be used as a stationary remote control device that is used to operate the remote control keyboard no longer needs to be picked up by the user.
  • the stationary remote control device deemed necessary in the conventional device mentioned is completely eliminated.
  • the stationary device storage comprises a housing which contains the stationary receiving diode.
  • the stationary receiving diode In this way, after inserting the hand-held remote control device into the device storage, there is inevitably a great spatial proximity of the transmitter diode and receiver diode, which in the stored state of the remote control device favors its functional reliability.
  • the stationary device tray is expediently designed and arranged on the tub rim in such a way that the stored hand-held remote control device faces the user in the backward-inclined state with its front side having the command keys.
  • the command keys are then particularly well recognizable and easy to operate for the user.
  • the housing of the stationary device storage comprises an obliquely sloping back surface from which a support determining the inclined storage position of the hand-held remote control device extends upwards.
  • the handheld remote control device comprises a device housing with a rear recess into which the support engages after the device has been deposited. It is particularly advantageous if the distance of the recess of the device housing from the lower edge of the device housing corresponds to the distance of the upper edge (transverse web) of the support which can be inserted into the recess from the surface of the housing of the device storage, in particular in the case when the transmitter diode is in a further position expedient embodiment of the invention in the area of the lower edge of the device housing is arranged, specifically aligned to a region of the housing of the device storage, on which the receiving diode is located.
  • the remote control device for the control includes those not shown Water and / or air supply nozzles of a bathtub 1, a hand-held remote control device 2, each with a transmission diode (not shown in more detail) in the area of the lower edge 3 of the device housing 4 and in the area of the upper edge 5 of this housing, as well as a stationary device tray fixed on the edge of the bathtub 1 6 with stationary, also not shown receiving diodes, which are arranged in the housing 7 of the device tray 6. These receiving diodes are connected to the functional elements to be controlled.
  • the handheld remote control device 2 When one of the command buttons 8 of the handheld remote control device 2 is actuated, infrared signals are emitted from the transmitter diodes, intercepted by at least one of the receiver diodes and transmitted to the functional units, the control of which is triggered by this actuation of the corresponding command buttons 8.
  • the handheld remote control device 2 can be provided with a keyboard having a different number of command keys 8.
  • the circulation pump intensity or underwater lighting can be influenced. Each time a command key 8 is pressed, the user receives feedback via an LED 9 that one of the controlled functions is now being carried out.
  • This light-emitting diode 9 is provided on the front side of the housing 4 of the manual remote control device 2 which is placed on the support 13 and which is aligned with the narrow end face 10 of the housing 7 of the device tray 6 facing the user.
  • the flat design of the hand-held remote control device 2 allows, in a known manner, the accommodation of a battery 11 serving for the power supply and a circuit board 11 'carrying the required electronic components.
  • a board 11 ′′ is also accommodated in the housing 7 of the device tray 6 in an analogous manner.
  • the housing has 7 of the stationary device tray 6 has an obliquely backward sloping surface 12, from which a right angle including the support 13 extends upward, so that it determines a correspondingly inclined storage position of the hand-held remote control device 2.
  • This support 13 is formed by a U-shaped round wire profile segment 14 with parallel legs.
  • the lower end portions 15 of these legs are fixed in the housing 7 of the device tray 6.
  • the upper end portions 16 are with the connecting, insertable into the recess 18 of the device housing 4 cross bar 17 from the common plane of the axis of the lower end portions 15 backwards by an amount slightly exceeding the diameter of the round wire profile segment 14, as this is particularly clear from Fig. 1.
  • the support 13 engages in a rear recess 18 of the device housing 4 after the hand-held remote control device 2 has been deposited.
  • the distance of the recess 18 of the device housing 4 from the lower edge 3 of the device housing corresponds to the distance of the upper edge (transverse web 17) of the support 13 which can be inserted into the recess from the surface 12 of the housing 7 of the device holder 6.
  • the arrangement of one of the receiving diodes in FIG that area of the housing 7 of the device tray 6 has been shown to be favorable, to which the lower edge 3 of the device housing 4 is aligned with one of the transmitter diodes.
  • the inclination of the support 13 in connection with the arrangement of the recess 18 of the device housing 4 ensure that when the hand-held remote control device 2 is stored, the latter inevitably assumes a predetermined position for the signal transmission when command buttons 8 are pressed.
  • An additional receiving diode is expediently arranged both in the region of the end face 10 of the housing 7 of the device storage unit 6 and in the region of the upper edge 5 of the device housing 4 remote from the lower edge 3. These diodes then appear in particular Function when the handheld remote control device 2 is used in the state removed from the support 13.
  • the housing 7 of the device shelf 6 together with the support 13 for the hand-held remote control device 2 is fixed so as to be pivotable about the vertical axis of a support base fixed to the bath tub rim 1.
  • the sleeve-shaped support base 19 has a cylindrical outer surface with a circumferential groove 20, into which a grub screw 21, which passes through this housing and serves to pivot the fixing of the housing 7 of the device tray 6 pushed onto the base 19.
  • the circumferential groove 20 of the support base 19 is associated with stops 22 which limit the pivoting path of the housing 7 of the device tray 6.
  • the functions selected in each case via the command keys 8 of the hand-held remote control device by lighting up the corresponding light-emitting diodes 24 and other measured values, such as, for example, the time, water temperature and bathing time can be read.
  • the selectable functions also include complete stored programs that can be called up when the corresponding command keys 8 are pressed, e.g.
  • the air supply nozzles which can be actuated in groups in a specific time sequence, controllable minimum or maximum values of the circulating pump intensities or flow velocities.
  • the disinfection processes of the pipe system can also be programmed in an analog manner by pressing a button.
