Abstract

A retaining means (26) with a continuous opening (27) is fastened on the valve body (25) of a discharge valve. A guide part (2) and a clamping part (3) are introduced into said opening (27), the clamping part (3), in engagement with the toothing arrangement (14), engaging with a mating toothing arrangement (26a) of the retaining means (26). In order to release the connection between the extension rod (1) and the retaining means (26), the guide part (2) is moved downwards in the direction of the arrow (7), the clamping part (3) being moved against the guide part (2) counter to the residual force of a compression spring (9). The positively locking connection between the toothing arrangements (14, 26a) is thus cancelled and the extension rod (1) can be displaced in the longitudinal direction in the retaining means (26). After releasing the guide part (2), the clamping part (3) is moved away from the guide part (2) again, by the compressive action of the spring (9), and the toothing arrangement (14) is brought into engagement with the mating toothing arrangement (26a) once again. The extension rod (1) permits a more simple assembly and is suitable, in particular, for concealed-installation flushing cisterns. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verlängerungsstange nach dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an extension rod according to the preamble of independent claim 1.

Verlängerungsstangen dieser Art sind bei Unterputzspülkästen allgemein bekannt. Bei diesen Spülkästen variiert der Abstand der Spültaste zum Ventilkörper des Ablaufventils je nach Vormauerung. Zur Anpassung an diesen Abstand muss bei der Montage die Spülbetätigung eingestellt werden. Bei einer bekannten Verlängerungsstange gemäss der Geberit Montageanleitung 115.392 wird der Betätigungshebel in einer bestimmten Ausrichtung auf die Zugstange aufgerastet und anschliessend die Verlängerungsstange am oberen Ende mittels einer Zange auf eine vorbestimmte Höhe abgeklemmt.Extension rods of this type are generally known in concealed cisterns. With these cisterns, the distance between the flush button and the valve body of the drain valve varies depending on the brickwork. To adjust to this distance, the flush actuation must be set during assembly. In a known extension rod according to Geberit assembly instructions 115.392, the actuating lever is snapped onto the pull rod in a certain orientation and then the extension rod is clamped at the upper end by means of pliers to a predetermined height.

Die CH-A-651 341 zeigt bei einem Unterputzspülkasten eine Verlängerungsstange dieser Art, die hier als Drückerstange ausgebildet ist und die zur Anpassung an die Vormauerung mehr oder weniger tief in eine Gewindehülse des Betätigungshebels eingeschraubt wird.The CH-A-651 341 shows an extension rod of this type in a concealed cistern, which is designed here as a push rod and which is screwed more or less deeply into a threaded sleeve of the actuating lever to adapt to the facing.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verlängerungsstange der genannten Art zu schaffen, die als Zug- und Drückerstange eine montagefreundlichere Einstellung der Betätigung eines Unterputzspülkastens ermöglicht. Die Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des unabhängigen patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Die erfindungsgemässe Verlängerungsstange ist mittels einer Klemmvorrichtung am Verschlusskörper befestigt. Diese Klemmvorrichtung ermöglicht eine Verstellung der Verlängerungsstange in ihrer Längsrichtung und damit eine Anpassung an die Vormauerung. Die Klemmvorrichtung ist lösbar und erlaubt ein werkzeugloses und wiederholtes Verstellen der Verlängerungsstange. Der Ventilkörper des Ablaufventils muss beim Verstellen der Verlängerungsstange nicht festgehalten werden, da die Verlängerungsstange hierbei nicht gedreht wird. Dies ist bei Unterputzspülkästen besonders wichtig, da diese oft schmal und das Ablaufventil schlecht zugänglich ist.The invention has for its object to provide an extension rod of the type mentioned, which allows a more easy-to-install adjustment of the actuation of a concealed cistern as a pull and push rod. The object is achieved by the features of independent patent claim 1. The extension rod according to the invention is fastened to the closure body by means of a clamping device. This clamping device enables the extension rod to be adjusted in its longitudinal direction and thus to be adapted to the facing. The clamping device can be released and allows the extension rod to be adjusted repeatedly and without tools. The valve body of the drain valve does not have to be held in place when adjusting the extension rod, since the extension rod is not rotated here. This is particularly important with concealed cisterns, as they are often narrow and the drain valve is difficult to access.

Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die Verlängerungsstange zwei sich in ihrer Längsrichtung erstreckende Teile auf, die zum Lösen und Befestigen der Verlängerungsstange am Verschlusskörper relativ zueinander verstellbar sind. Diese Verlängerungsstange weist zudem einen Halter auf, der am oberen Ende des Ventilkörpers befestigt ist. Bei dieser Ausführung ist ein Verschieben der beiden Teile am oberen Ende der Verlängerungsstange möglich. Diese Ausführung ist somit noch montagefreundlicher.According to a development of the invention, the extension rod has two parts extending in its longitudinal direction, which are adjustable relative to one another for releasing and attaching the extension rod to the closure body. This extension rod also has a holder which is attached to the upper end of the valve body. With this version it is possible to move the two parts at the upper end of the extension rod. This version is therefore even easier to assemble.

Gemäss einer anderen Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist am oberen Ende der Verlängerungsstange ein Hilfsansatz angebracht, der als Anschlag für die Einstellung der Einbauhöhe im Kastenkörper vorgesehen ist und der nach dem Einstellen abbrechbar ist. Diese Weiterbildung vereinfacht das Einmessen der Verlängerungsstange und damit gleichzeitig auch die Montage. Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen, der nachfolgenden Beschreibung sowie der Zeichnung.According to another development of the invention, an auxiliary attachment is attached to the upper end of the extension rod, which is provided as a stop for adjusting the installation height in the box body and which can be broken off after adjustment. This further development simplifies the measurement of the extension rod and thus also the assembly. Further advantageous features result from the dependent claims, the following description and the drawing.

Die Figuren 1 bis 3 zeigen eine erste Ausführung einer Verlängerungsstange 1, die mit einem unteren Ende gemäss Fig. 1 in ein Ventilrohr 25 eingreift. Dieses Ventilrohr 25 ist in der Regel gleichzeitig ein Ueberlaufrohr und bildet den beweglichen Teil eines an sich bekannten Ablaufventils. Am oberen Ende der Verlängerungsstange 1 ist an dieser ein zweiarmiger Hebel 22 mittels einer Klemm- oder Rastvorrichtung 23 (Fig. 2) befestigt. Dieser Hebel 22 ist mittels einer hier nicht gezeigten Taste zum Anheben des Ventilrohres 25 um eine horizontale Schwenkachse 24 verschwenkbar. Bei der Darstellung gemäss Fig. 2 wird zum Auslösen einer Spülung der Hebel 22 im Uhrzeigersinn um die Achse 24 verschwenkt. Dadurch wird die Verlängerungsstange 1 und mit ihr das Ventilrohr 25 nach oben gezogen und dadurch das Ablaufventil geöffnet. In der Regel ist es auch möglich, für eine Spülunterbrechung den Hebel 22 im Gegenuhrzeigersinn zu verschwenken und damit das Ventilrohr 25 durch einen Druck nach unten auf den Ventilsitz zu bewegen und damit das Ablaufventil zu schliessen. Hierbei wird die Verlängerungsstange 1 auf Druck belastet.Figures 1 to 3 show a first embodiment of an extension rod 1, which engages with a lower end according to FIG. 1 in a valve tube 25. This valve tube 25 is usually at the same time an overflow tube and forms the movable part of a drain valve known per se. At the upper end of the extension rod 1, a two-armed lever 22 is fastened to it by means of a clamping or latching device 23 (FIG. 2). This lever 22 can be pivoted about a horizontal pivot axis 24 by means of a button (not shown here) for lifting the valve tube 25. 2, the lever 22 is pivoted clockwise about the axis 24 to initiate a flushing. As a result, the extension rod 1 and with it the valve tube 25 are pulled upward and the drain valve is thereby opened. As a rule, it is also possible for an interruption of flushing to pivot the lever 22 counterclockwise and thus to move the valve tube 25 downwards onto the valve seat and thus to close the drain valve. Here, the extension rod 1 is subjected to pressure.

Wie die Fig. 1 zeigt, ist in das Ventilrohr 25 von oben ein stegförmiger Halter 26 eingesetzt. Dieser ist fest mit dem Ventilrohr 25 verbunden und weist eine durchgehende Oeffnung 27 auf, in welche die Verlängerungsstange 1 von oben eingesetzt ist. Die Stange 1 weist einen Führungsteil 2 sowie einen Klemmteil 3 auf. Der Führungsteil ist im Querschnitt gemäss Fig. 3 mit Ausnahme eines oberen Griffs 6 im Querschnitt U-förmig und weist mehrere gegenüberliegende schräge Führungsschlitze 11 auf. Der Klemmteil 3 ist in den Führungsteil 2 eingesetzt, wobei angeformte seitliche Führungsstifte 15 in die Führungsschlitze 11 eingreifen. Mittels einer Druckfeder 9, die an einem Steg 8 des Führungsteils 2 und an einer Schulter 10 des Klemmteils 3 angreift, werden die beiden Teile 2 und 3 in Längsrichtung gegeneinander gespannt. Da nun die Führungsschlitze 11 gemäss Fig. 1 schräg in den Führungsteil 2 eingearbeitet sind, bewirkt die axiale Spannung der Druckfeder 9 eine Spannung quer zur Längsrichtung der Verlängerungsstange 1. Die beiden Teile 2 und 3 werden durch diese Querspannung auseinander und gegen die Halterung 26 gespannt. Durch diese Querspannung wird eine feine Zahnung 14 des Klemmteils 3 in Eingriff mit einer entsprechenden Gegenzahnung 26a des Halters 26 gehalten. Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, erstreckt sich die Zahnung 14 über einen weiten Bereich des Klemmteils 3. Durch die genannte Spannung bzw. durch den Eingriff der Zahnungen 14 und 26a ist die Verlängerungsstange 1 im Halter 26 bzw. im Ventilrohr 25 fixiert. Das Ventilrohr 25 ist somit fest mit der Verlängerungsstange 1 verbunden. In der festgelegten Position besteht gemäss Fig. 3 zwischen dem Klemmteil 3 und dem Führungsteil 2 ein Zwischenraum 28.1 shows, a web-shaped holder 26 is inserted into the valve tube 25 from above. This is firmly connected to the valve tube 25 and has a continuous opening 27 into which the extension rod 1 is inserted from above. The rod 1 has a guide part 2 and a clamping part 3. 3, with the exception of an upper handle 6, is U-shaped in cross section and has a plurality of opposed oblique guide slots 11. The clamping part 3 is inserted into the guide part 2, with molded lateral guide pins 15 engaging in the guide slots 11. By means of a compression spring 9, which engages on a web 8 of the guide part 2 and on a shoulder 10 of the clamping part 3, the two parts 2 and 3 are tensioned against one another in the longitudinal direction. Since the guide slots 11 are now inclined in the guide part 2 according to FIG. 1, the axial tension of the compression spring 9 causes a tension transversely to the longitudinal direction of the extension rod 1. The two parts 2 and 3 are stretched apart and clamped against the holder 26 by this transverse tension . This transverse tension causes a fine toothing 14 of the clamping part 3 to engage with one corresponding counter toothing 26a of the holder 26 is held. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the toothing 14 extends over a wide area of the clamping part 3. The extension rod 1 is fixed in the holder 26 or in the valve tube 25 by the tension mentioned or by the engagement of the toothings 14 and 26a. The valve tube 25 is thus firmly connected to the extension rod 1. 3 there is an intermediate space 28 between the clamping part 3 and the guide part 2.

Zum Lösen der Klemmverbindung zwischen der Verlängerungsstange 1 und dem Halter 26 wird der Klemmteil 3 gegen die Kraft der Druckfeder 9 in Richtung des Pfeiles 7 nach oben bewegt. Hierbei wird durch die Stifte 15 der Klemmteil 3 gegen den Führungsteil 2 bewegt und damit der Zwischenraum 28 verkleinert und der Eingriff der Zahnungen 14 und 26a aufgehoben. Die Verlängerungsstange 1 wird somit durch die genannte Verschiebung der beiden Teile 2 und 3 in einer Querrichtung schmaler und kann dadurch in der Oeffnung 27 in seiner Längsrichtung verstellt werden. Wird der Klemmteil 3 wieder losgelassen, so bewegt die Druckfeder 9 die beiden Teile 2 und 3 wieder in die in Fig. 1 gezeigte gespreitzte Lage, wobei dann allerdings die Einstecktiefe der Verlängerungsstange 1 in der Oeffnung 27 eine andere sein kann. Durch ein Verschieben des Klemmteils 3 in Längsrichtung der Verlängerungsstange 1 kann somit die Klemmverbindung zwischen der Stange 1 und dem Ventilrohr 25 beliebig gelöst und wieder hergestellt werden. Der Führungsteil 2 kann hierbei an seinem oberen Griffteil 6 und der Klemmteil 3 an einem Griffteil 29 gefasst werden.To release the clamping connection between the extension rod 1 and the holder 26, the clamping part 3 is moved upward in the direction of arrow 7 against the force of the compression spring 9. Here, the pins 15 of the clamping part 3 are moved against the guide part 2 and thus the space 28 is reduced and the engagement of the toothings 14 and 26a is canceled. The extension rod 1 is thus narrower in a transverse direction as a result of the aforementioned displacement of the two parts 2 and 3 and can therefore be adjusted in its longitudinal direction in the opening 27. If the clamping part 3 is released again, the compression spring 9 moves the two parts 2 and 3 again into the expanded position shown in FIG. 1, in which case, however, the insertion depth of the extension rod 1 in the opening 27 can be different. By moving the clamping part 3 in the longitudinal direction of the extension rod 1, the clamping connection between the rod 1 and the valve tube 25 can thus solved and restored as desired. The guide part 2 can be gripped on its upper grip part 6 and the clamping part 3 on a grip part 29.

Zum Montieren der Verlängerungsstange 1 in einem in Fig. 2 nur andeutungsweise gezeigten Unterputzspülkasten 20 wird der Klemmteil 3 im Führungsteil 2 gegen die rückwirkende Kraft der Druckfeder 9 hochgezogen und mit ihrem unteren Ende in das Ventilrohr 25 bzw. die Oeffnung 27 des Halters 26 eingesetzt, und zwar soweit, bis ein Hilfsansatz 4 des Führungsteils 2 mit einer Oberseite H bündig ist mit einer Kante K eines Rahmens 21. Diese Bündigkeit kann in einfacher Weise beispielsweise mittels eines Stabes S, der auf den Rahmen 21 aufgelegt ist, sehr einfach und genau festgestellt werden. Wird nun der Klemmteil 3 losgelassen, so wird dieser durch die Feder 9 nach unten bewegt, bis die Teile 2 und 3 am Halter 26 anliegen. Gleichzeitig werden die Teile 2 und 3 in der Oeffnung 27 durch den Eingriff der Zahnungen 14 und 26a fixiert. Die Verlängerungsstange 1 weist nun bereits die geeignete genaue Einbauhöhe auf. Nun wird die Verlängerungsstange 1 auf den Hebel 22 aufgerastet und der Hilfsansatz 4 entlang einer Schwächungsstelle 5 abgebrochen. Ein nachträgliche Korrektur der Einbauhöhe der Stange 1 ist ohne weiteres möglich.To mount the extension rod 1 in a concealed cistern 20, which is only hinted at in FIG. That is, until an auxiliary shoulder 4 of the guide part 2 is flush with an upper side H with an edge K of a frame 21. This flushness can be determined very easily and precisely in a simple manner, for example by means of a rod S which is placed on the frame 21 will. If the clamping part 3 is now released, it is moved downwards by the spring 9 until the parts 2 and 3 rest on the holder 26. At the same time, the parts 2 and 3 are fixed in the opening 27 by the engagement of the teeth 14 and 26a. The extension rod 1 already has the appropriate, precise installation height. Now the extension rod 1 is snapped onto the lever 22 and the auxiliary attachment 4 is broken off along a weakening point 5. A subsequent correction of the installation height of the rod 1 is easily possible.

Bei der Ausführung gemäss den Figuren 4 und 5 ist eine Verlängerungsstange 30 mit einer äusseren sich in Längsrichtung erstreckenden Zahnung 33 vorgesehen. Am oberen Ende der Stange 30 ist ebenfalls ein abbrechbarer Hilfsansatz 31 angeformt, der die gleiche Funktion besitzt wie der Hilfsansatz 4. Die Verlängerungsstange 30 ist ebenfalls lösbar am Ventilrohr 25 fixiert. Bei dieser Ausführung ist jedoch ein stegartiger Klemmteil 35 am Ventilrohr 25 befestigt. Die Verlängerungsstange 30 ist in eine durchgehende Oeffnung 36 des Klemmteils 35 von oben eingesetzt und darin mit einer elastisch federnden Zunge 34 fixiert. Diese Zunge 34 weist eine Innenzahnung 34a auf, die eine Gegenzahnung zur Zahnung 33 bildet. Zum Lösen der Verlängerungsstange 30 wird die Zunge 34 in Richtung des Pfeiles 37 aufgelenkt. Zum Fixieren der Stange 30 wird die Zunge 34 losgelassen, worauf diese unter Spannung an der Stange 30 anliegt und für einen formschlüssigen Eingriff der Zahnungen 33 und 34a sorgt. Bei dieser Ausführung ist die Montage ähnlich wie bei der Ausführung gemäss den Figuren 1 bis 3. Zum Lösen bzw. Fixieren der Verlängerungsstange 30 muss hier allerdings tiefer von oben in den Kastenkörper gegriffen werden.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5 there is an extension rod 30 with an outer lengthwise direction extending teeth 33 provided. At the upper end of the rod 30 a breakable auxiliary extension 31 is also formed, which has the same function as the auxiliary extension 4. The extension rod 30 is also releasably fixed to the valve tube 25. In this embodiment, however, a web-like clamping part 35 is attached to the valve tube 25. The extension rod 30 is inserted into a continuous opening 36 of the clamping part 35 from above and fixed therein with an elastically resilient tongue 34. This tongue 34 has an internal toothing 34a which forms a counter toothing to the toothing 33. To release the extension rod 30, the tongue 34 is opened in the direction of the arrow 37. To fix the rod 30, the tongue 34 is released, whereupon it rests under tension on the rod 30 and ensures a positive engagement of the toothings 33 and 34a. In this embodiment, the assembly is similar to that in the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3. To loosen or fix the extension rod 30, however, it is necessary to reach deeper into the box body from above.
