Definitions

  • the seal between the shower base and the bell-shaped In these cases, the housing is made using O-ring seals, which are manufactured as separate parts and to be assembled. Both through the manufacture as well the storage and assembly of these separate Seals incur costs.
  • the object of the present invention is a shower head of the type mentioned in such a way that it can be manufactured cheaper overall.
  • the material flag can be in one in the inner surface the perforated plate formed groove.
  • the nozzle inserts are in one piece with a shock protection plate trained that essentially the whole Covering the outer surface of the perforated plate and from the same Material like the nozzle inserts.
  • This bumper plate forms, as the name already expresses, a shock protection of the outer surface of the perforated plate, the yes itself consists of rigid material and not itself is so shock resistant.
  • This shock protection plate also leaves due to the joint production with the nozzle inserts Realize without any significant additional costs.
  • the seal has at least one material lug, through a hole in the perforated plate extends through, connected to the shock protection plate is.
  • the shock protection plate which is on the seal opposite side of the perforated plate is arranged, can be practically independent of the respective position the seal through the connecting hole in the Always reach the perforated plate in a short way.
  • shower trays are circular in circumference provided, which is why the seal between the shower base and remaining shower head generally as a ring seal is trained.
  • Recommended in these cases there are several material flags over the circumference the seal are provided distributed. This majority of material flags provides a good material flow when Spraying the nozzle inserts, the shock protection plate and of the seals safely. They also take care of you good cohesion of the different components of the shower base including the seal (s), even if the soft elastic material is not in two component technology is already molded onto the rigid perforated plate for this reason fixed on the rigid perforated plate is.
  • the shower head shown includes in and of itself known a bell-shaped housing 2, the open, lower end through a multi-part shower base 1 is complete.
  • the shower base 1 is by means of a central screw 3 to the inside of the housing 2 not installed fittings of the shower head in here detachably attached in more interesting manner.
  • the shower base 1 in turn comprises a perforated plate 1a made of relatively rigid plastic material that the outer surface, i.e. on the bottom in the drawing facing surface, with a shock protection plate 1b relatively soft, elastic material covered is.
  • the shock protection plate 1b can do just like all those components to be described, which are made from the same relatively soft, elastic plastic material consist of two-component technology on the perforated plate 1a are injected.
  • the impact protection plate 1b covers essentially the entire outer surface of the perforated plate 1a.
  • the perforated plate 1 a of the shower base 1 shows in and in a manner known per se, several sets of through openings 4, 5 on concentric circles around the Center axis of the shower base 1 around in regular Angular distances are arranged.
  • the exact hole pattern, which of the through openings 4, 5 of the perforated plate 1a is formed is without in the present context Concern.
  • the through holes slightly larger in diameter 5 of the perforated plate 1a are each of a hose-like Nozzle insert 6 penetrates a relatively has a small axial length, that is, the perforated plate 1a the upper one (to the inside of the housing 2 of the shower head facing) only slightly overhanging.
  • the tubular ones Nozzle inserts 6 are each from a nozzle channel 7 axially penetrates a relatively large cross section, which is in the illustrated embodiment to the outside tapered towards.
  • the hose-like nozzle inserts 6 are also in one piece on the shock protection plate 1b molded and consist of the same material as this.
  • the through openings 4 of the perforated plate 1a are also each penetrated by hose-like nozzle inserts 8, which are in one piece with the impact protection plate 1b, but which have a greater axial length than the nozzle inserts 6, so continue to protrude on the inside of the perforated plate 1a.
  • the tubular nozzle inserts 8 are also each crossed by nozzle channels 9, the comparison a small one to the nozzle channels 7 of the nozzle inserts 6 Have cross-section.
  • the nozzle channels 9 also taper each inside out.
  • the nozzle inserts 6 have a special one Shaping, which there is a mechanical flexing relieves the user's hand, to limescale deposits in the nozzle channels 9, in particular to blow off near the water outlet openings 11. This shape is in the present context of subordinate meaning and is therefore not closer described.
  • the shower base 1 is mounted on the housing 2 of the shower head, protrude axially shorter hose-like nozzle inserts 6 in one first water space formed within the housing 2 13.
  • the insert 20 also has a central bore 21, the coaxial to the central mounting screw 3 in Towards shower floor 1. Nearby of the shower base 1 is the central bore 21 through a Extension 22 extends at its circular The outer circumference is limited by an annular collar 23. The collar 23 lies with its annular end face at the top of the perforated plate 1a. In a groove 24 at the top of the perforated plate 1a is an annular seal 25 housed which the passage of air and / or Water through the gap between collar 23 and perforated plate 1a prevented. The groove 24 in the perforated plate 1a protrudes several axially parallel holes distributed over the circumference relatively small diameter with the outer surface the perforated plate 1a in connection.
  • the ring seal 25 consists of the same material as the shock protection plate 1b and the nozzle inserts 6 and 8. It stands with the Shock protection plate 1b through the holes 26 of the perforated plate 1a penetrating material flags 33 in one piece.
  • the Perforated plate 1a On a circle with a radius smaller than that Radius of the collar 23 at the insert 20 is the Perforated plate 1a with several distributed over the circumference Through holes 27 provided, which are in corresponding Through holes 28 of the shock protection plate Continue axially. Only one of these through holes 27 and 28 can be seen in the drawing.
  • the Ring seal 29 is several over the circumference of the Material flags 31 distributed along the shower base the neighboring nozzle inserts 6 and 8 in one piece in connection.
  • the ring seal 29 seals three parts against each other: perforated plate 1a, insert 20 as well as the housing 2 of the shower head.
