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 in concealed cisterns well known. The varies with these cisterns Distance between the flush button and the valve body of the drain valve after facing. To adapt to this distance must be at the flush actuation can be set during assembly. At a known extension rod according to the Geberit installation instructions 115.392 is the actuating lever in a certain Alignment snapped onto the pull rod and then   the extension rod at the top using a Pliers clamped 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 for a concealed cistern this type, which is designed here as a push rod is and more or less to adapt to the facing screwed deep into a threaded sleeve of the operating lever becomes.

Die US-A-2,858,846 zeigt einen Druckspüler, bei dem die Betätigungsmittel durch Ein- oder Herausschrauben von Gewindeteilen an einen Mauerdurchbruch anpassbar sind. Die GB-A-430,114 offenbart einen Spülkasten mit einem Betätigungshebel, der durch Ein- oder Herausschrauben einer Gewindestange in seiner Länge anpassbar ist. US-A-2,858,846 shows a flush valve in which the actuating means by screwing threaded parts in or out a wall breakthrough are customizable. GB-A-430,114 discloses a cistern with an operating lever, which by or Unscrewing a threaded rod is adjustable in length.

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 an extension rod to create the type mentioned as a pull and push rod Installation-friendly adjustment of the operation of a concealed cistern enables. The task is characterized by the characteristics of the independent Claim 1 solved. The extension rod according to the invention is by means of a clamping device on the closure body attached. This clamping device enables adjustment the extension rod in its longitudinal direction and thus an adjustment to the facing. The clamping device is detachable and allows a tool-free and repeated adjustment of the extension rod. The valve body of the drain valve must be adjusted the extension rod can not be held because the Extension rod is not rotated here. This is with concealed cisterns particularly important, since these are often narrow and that 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 two extending in their longitudinal direction Parts on that to loosen and attach the extension bar adjustable relative to each other on the closure body are. This extension rod also has a holder on, which is attached to the upper end of the valve body. This version involves moving the two parts possible at the upper end of the extension rod. This execution 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, on an auxiliary attachment is attached to the upper end of the extension rod, the as a stop for setting the installation height is provided in the box body and that after adjustment can be canceled. This further training simplifies calibration the extension rod and thus also the Assembly. Further advantageous features result from the dependent claims, the description below 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 has a lower end according to FIG. 1 engages in a valve tube 25. This valve tube 25 is usually an overflow pipe and forms the movable part of a known drain valve. At the upper end of the extension rod 1 is on this one two-armed lever 22 by means of a clamping or locking device 23 (Fig. 2) attached. This lever 22 is by means of a Key not shown here for lifting the valve tube 25 can be pivoted about a horizontal pivot axis 24. At 2 is used to trigger a flush the lever 22 is pivoted clockwise about the axis 24. As a result, the extension rod 1 and you pulled the valve tube 25 up and thereby the drain valve open. As a rule, it is also possible for   a flush interruption the lever 22 counterclockwise to pivot and thus the valve tube 25 by a Pressure to move down to the valve seat and thus to close the drain valve. Here, the Extension rod 1 loaded under 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, is in the valve tube 25 from above web-shaped holder 26 used. This is fixed with the Valve tube 25 connected and has a continuous opening 27, into which the extension rod 1 from above is inserted. The rod 1 has a guide part 2 and a clamping part 3. The guide part is in cross section 3 with the exception of an upper handle 6 in Cross section U-shaped and has several opposite oblique guide slots 11. The clamping part 3 is in the Guide part 2 used, with molded lateral guide pins 15 engage in the guide slots 11. Means a compression spring 9 on a web 8 of the guide part 2 and engages on a shoulder 10 of the clamping part 3, the two parts 2 and 3 in the longitudinal direction against each other curious; excited. Since the guide slots 11 according to FIG. 1 are inclined in the guide part 2, causes the axial tension of the compression spring 9 is a tension across Longitudinal direction of the extension rod 1. The two parts 2 and 3 are separated by this transverse stress and against the bracket 26 cocked. Through this transverse stress a fine toothing 14 of the clamping part 3 in engagement with one   corresponding counter toothing 26a of the holder 26 is held. As can be seen from Fig. 2, the toothing extends 14 over a wide range of the clamping part 3. By the mentioned tension or by the engagement of the toothings 14 and 26a is the extension rod 1 in the holder 26 and in Valve tube 25 fixed. The valve tube 25 is thus fixed the extension rod 1 connected. In the set Position exists according to FIG. 3 between the clamping part 3 and an intermediate space 28 for 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 clamp connection between the extension rod 1 and the holder 26, the clamping part 3 against the Force of the compression spring 9 in the direction of arrow 7 upwards emotional. In this case, the clamping part 3 moves against the guide part 2 and thus the space 28 reduced and the engagement of the teeth 14 and 26a canceled. The extension rod 1 is thus by the called displacement of the two parts 2 and 3 in one The transverse direction is narrower and can therefore be in the opening 27 be adjusted in its longitudinal direction. Will the When the clamping part 3 is released again, the compression spring 9 moves the two parts 2 and 3 again in that shown in Fig. 1 spread position, but then the insertion depth the extension rod 1 in the opening 27 another can be. By moving the clamping part 3 in The longitudinal direction of the extension rod 1 can thus Clamp connection between the rod 1 and the valve tube 25   solved and restored as desired. The leadership part 2 can here on its upper handle part 6 and the clamping part 3 can be gripped on a handle 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. For mounting the extension rod 1 in a in Fig. 2nd concealed cistern 20 is only indicated the clamping part 3 in the guide part 2 against the retroactive Force of the compression spring 9 pulled up and with its lower End in the valve tube 25 or the opening 27 of the holder 26 used, to the extent that an auxiliary approach 4 of Guide part 2 with an upper side H is flush with one Edge K of a frame 21. This flush can be done in easier For example, by means of a rod S on the frame 21 is placed very easily and precisely will. If the clamping part 3 is now released, so it is moved down by the spring 9 until the Parts 2 and 3 rest on the holder 26. Be at the same time the parts 2 and 3 in the opening 27 by the engagement of the Teeth 14 and 26a fixed. The extension rod 1 already has the appropriate exact installation height. Now the extension rod 1 is snapped onto the lever 22 and the auxiliary approach 4 terminated along a weakening point 5. A subsequent correction of the installation height of the Bar 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 Figures 4 and 5 is an extension rod 30 with an exterior in the longitudinal direction   extending teeth 33 provided. At the upper end the rod 30 is also a breakable auxiliary attachment 31 molded, which has the same function as the Auxiliary approach 4. The extension rod 30 is also releasably fixed to the valve tube 25. In this version is however, a web-like clamping part 35 is attached to the valve tube 25. The extension rod 30 is in a continuous Opening 36 of the clamping part 35 inserted from above and therein fixed with a resilient tongue 34. That tongue 34 has an internal toothing 34a, which has a counter toothing for teeth 33 forms. 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 this rests under tension on the rod 30 and for a positive engagement of the teeth 33 and 34a worries. In this version, the assembly is similar to in the embodiment according to Figures 1 to 3. To solve or fixing the extension rod 30 must, however, here be gripped deeper into the box body from above.

Die Verlängerungsstangen 1 und 30 eignen sich auch als Drückerstangen, wobei diese dann selbstverständlich horizontal liegen und ein Hilfsansatz 4 entfällt. Extension rods 1 and 30 are also suitable as Push rods, which of course then horizontal lie and an auxiliary approach 4 is omitted.
