Abstract

The holder is for a hand-held shower head, having a slotted sleeve (5) tapering on the inside and in which the mating tapering portion on the head is inserted in the axial direction. If desired, the sleeve can slew in the holder on an axis at right angles to that of the tapering portion. The elastomer layer (19) is situated between two parts movable in relation to each other, and lies flat against one of them at least, being effective at least during relative movement between them. The tapering face of the sleeve can be coated with elastomer, part (8) of the holder (4) bearing against it during the pivoting movement. At the outside of the sleeve the elastomer portion can be annular (20), the wall-holder bearing against it in the radial direction.

Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Brausehalter zur abnehmbaren Halterung einer Handbrause.The invention relates to a shower holder for the removable holder of a hand shower.

Derartige Brausehalter werden dazu verwendet, eine Handbrause während der Benutzung oder auch nach der Benutzung so festzulegen, daß die Brause benutzt werden kann. Die Brausehalter können entweder direkt an der Wand befestigt sein oder mit einem Schieber an einer Wandstange, so daß sie auch noch verstellt werden können.Such shower holders are used to fix a hand shower during or after use so that the shower can be used. The shower holder can either be attached directly to the wall or with a slider on a wall bar so that it can also be adjusted.

Zum Festlegen der Handbrause haben übliche Brausehalter ein Hülsenelement, das geschlitzt ist und einen Innenkonus aufweist. Der Innenkonus wirkt mit einem Konuselement der Handbrause, üblicherweise einer Konusmutter, zusammen. Durch den Schlitz, der zum Durchführen des Brauseschlauchs erforderlich ist, ergibt sich eine gewisse Elastizität der Konushülse, so daß die Handbrause dort durch Klemmung festgelegt werden kann.To fix the hand shower, conventional shower holders have a sleeve element that is slotted and has an inner cone. The inner cone interacts with a cone element of the hand shower, usually a cone nut. Due to the slot that is required to pass the shower hose, there is a certain elasticity of the conical sleeve, so that the hand shower can be fixed there by clamping.

Das Hülsenelement, in dem die Handbrause festgeklemmt wird, kann um eine senkrecht zur Längsachse des Konus verlaufende Achse verschwenkbar sein, um die Handbrause so einzustellen, daß die Strahlen in einer bestimmten Richtung austreten.The sleeve element in which the hand shower is clamped can be pivotable about an axis running perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cone in order to adjust the hand shower so that the jets emerge in a certain direction.

Ein Beispiel für eine derartige Verschwenkung ist aus DE-PS 35 06 124 bekannt.An example of such a pivoting is known from DE-PS 35 06 124.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Handhabung eines Brausehalters für den Benutzer weiter zu verbessern.The invention has for its object to further improve the handling of a shower holder for the user.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung einen Brausehalter mit den im Patentanspruch 1 genannten Merkmalen vor. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.To achieve this object, the invention proposes a shower holder with the features mentioned in claim 1. Developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.

Durch die von der Erfindung vorgeschlagene Schicht aus Elastomer kann die Bewegung ein angenehmeres Gefühl für den Benutzer ergeben, so daß gegebenenfalls geringere Kräfte aufgewendet werden müssen oder eine geringere Haltekraft nötig wird.Due to the layer of elastomer proposed by the invention, the movement can result in a more pleasant feeling for the user, so that less forces may have to be applied or a lower holding force is necessary.

Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Konusfläche des Hülsenelements eine Elastomerschicht aufweist. Durch die flächige Verkleidung der Konusfläche, vorzugsweise über die gesamte Konusfläche, wird ein Einschieben der Handbrause mit geringerer Kraft erreicht, da sich die Haltekraft des Brausehalters erhöht. Für den Benutzer kann sich ein angenehmeres Gefühl ergeben, da das Einschieben etwas gebremst erscheint.For example, it can be provided that the conical surface of the sleeve element has an elastomer layer. The flat covering of the cone surface, preferably over the entire cone surface, allows the hand shower to be pushed in with less force, since the holding force of the shower holder increases. A more pleasant feeling can result for the user, since the insertion appears to be somewhat slowed down.

Ebenfalls vorgesehen sein kann, daß das Hülsenelement an seiner Außenseite eine Elastomerschicht aufweist, an der ein Teil der Halterung bei der Verschwenkung des Hülsenelements flächig anliegt. Hier läßt sich ein ähnlicher Effekt bewirken wie bei der Auskleidung der Konusfläche für das Einstecken der Handbrause.It can also be provided that the sleeve element has on its outside an elastomer layer on which a part of the holder when the sleeve element is pivoted lies flat. An effect similar to that of lining the cone surface for inserting the hand shower can be achieved here.

Insbesondere kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, daß die Elastomerschicht an der Außenseite des Hülsenelements Ringform aufweist und die Halterung in radialer Richtung bezüglich der Verschwenkachse an der Elastomerschicht anliegt.In particular, it can be provided according to the invention that the elastomer layer has an annular shape on the outside of the sleeve element and the holder bears against the elastomer layer in the radial direction with respect to the pivot axis.

Erfindungsgemäß kann der Brausehalter eine Rasteinrichtung zur rastenden Verschwenkung des Hülsenelements aufweisen, wobei die Rasteinrichtung ein Rastelement enthält, das in radialer Richtung bezüglich der Schwenkachse verformt wird und das mindestens während der Verformung an der Elastomerschicht anliegt. Hier kann die Elastomerschicht dazu beitragen, das Rastelement schwächer auszubilden oder seine Verformung dadurch zu begrenzen, daß gegen Ende der Verformungsbewegung ein Teil der Verformung von der flächig vorhandenen Elastomerschicht aufgenommen und dadurch verteilt wird.According to the invention, the shower holder can have a latching device for latching pivoting of the sleeve element, the latching device containing a latching element which is deformed in the radial direction with respect to the pivot axis and which bears against the elastomer layer at least during the deformation. Here, the elastomer layer can contribute to making the catch element weaker or to limit its deformation in that at the end of the deformation movement, part of the deformation is absorbed by the flat elastomer layer and thereby distributed.

Da eine Verschwenkung des Hülsenelements an zwei gegenüberliegenden Außenseiten gelagert wird, ist vorzugsweise an diesen beiden Stellen die Elastomerschicht an der Außenseite vorhanden.Since a pivoting of the sleeve element is mounted on two opposite outer sides, the elastomer layer is preferably present on the outer side at these two points.

In nochmaliger Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Elastomerschicht an der Innenseite des Hülsenelements mit der an dessen Außenseite verbunden ist. Diese Verbindung kann durch das Hülsenelement hindurch erfolgen, wobei vorzugsweise die Elastomerschicht durch Öffnungen in dem Hülsenelement hindurchgespritzt ist. Insgesamt kann die Elastomerschicht zusammenhängend bzw. einstückig hergestellt sein.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the elastomer layer on the inside of the sleeve element is connected to that on the outside thereof. This connection can take place through the sleeve element, the elastomer layer preferably being sprayed through openings in the sleeve element. Overall, the elastomer layer can be made coherent or in one piece.

In Weiterbildung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Innenkonusfläche des Hülsenelements Vertiefungen, Löcher o. dgl. aufweist, die gegebenenfalls zur Außenseite des Hülsenelements durchgehen und in die die Elastomerschicht eingespritzt ist.In a further development it can be provided that the inner conical surface of the sleeve element has depressions, holes or the like, which possibly pass through to the outside of the sleeve element and into which the elastomer layer is injected.

Further features, details and advantages emerge from the patent claims, the wording of which is made by reference to the content of the description, the following description of a preferred embodiment of the invention and with reference to the drawing. Here show:

Der in Fig. 1 in teilweisem Schnitt dargestellte Brausehalter enthält einen Schieber 1, der an einer senkrecht verlaufenden Wandstange 2 verschiebbar geführt ist. Die Wandstange 2 wird beispielsweise an einer Badezimmerwand mit Haltern angeschraubt. Zum Arretieren des Schiebers 1 in einer bestimmten Stellung ist ein Bremselement vorgesehen, das mit Hilfe eines Betätigungselements 3 in Form eines Durckknopfs gelöst werden kann. An dem Schieber ist um eine senkrechte Achse verdrehbar der eigentliche Brausehalter 4 gelagert. Die senkrechte Achse verläuft parallel zur Wandstange 2. In dem Brausehalter 4 ist, siehe Fig. 2, ein Hülsenelement 5 gehaltert, und zwar bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform in einer Weise, die ein Verschwenken des Hülsenelements 5 um eine senkrecht zur Papierebene der Fig. 1 verlaufende Achse ermöglicht. Das Hülsenelement enthält in seinem Inneren eine im Querschnitt kreisförmige Innenöffnung, deren Durchmesser sich von oben nach unten verringert, so daß eine Innenkonusform gebildet ist. Der Zugang zu dieser Innenkonusform geschieht durch einen seitlichen Schlitz 6, dessen Breite kleiner ist als der Durchmesser des Innenkonus, aber größer als der Durchmesser des Brauseschlauchs.The shower holder shown in Fig. 1 in partial section contains a slide 1, which is guided on a vertically extending wall bar 2. The wall bar 2 is screwed to a bathroom wall with brackets, for example. To lock the slide 1 in a certain position, a braking element is provided, which can be released with the aid of an actuating element 3 in the form of a push button. The actual shower holder 4 is rotatably mounted on the slider about a vertical axis. The vertical axis runs parallel to the wall bar 2. In the shower holder 4, see FIG. 2, a sleeve element 5 is held, in the embodiment shown in a manner that a Pivots the sleeve member 5 about an axis running perpendicular to the paper plane of FIG. 1. The sleeve element contains in its interior an inner opening with a circular cross section, the diameter of which decreases from top to bottom, so that an inner cone shape is formed. This inner cone shape is accessed through a lateral slot 6, the width of which is smaller than the diameter of the inner cone but larger than the diameter of the shower hose.

Das Hülsenelement weist an zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Seitenkanten je einen stummelartigen Ansatz 7 auf, der in noch weiter zu beschreibender Weise einen Wellenansatz bildet, der in den Seitenteilen des Brausehalters 4 gelagert ist.The sleeve element has a stub-like extension 7 on each of two opposite side edges, which in a manner to be described further forms a shaft extension which is mounted in the side parts of the shower holder 4.

Der Brausehalter weist im Bereich seines von der Wandstange 2 abgewandten Endes einen Einschnitt auf, der etwa u-förmig ausgebildet ist und in dem das Hülsenelement 5 angeordnet ist. In den beiden Schenkeln des Us enthält der Brausehalter 4 eine kreisförmige Vertiefung, die über einen größeren Teil ihres Umfangs von einer Schürze 8 begrenzt ist.The shower holder has an incision in the region of its end facing away from the wall bar 2, which is approximately U-shaped and in which the sleeve element 5 is arranged. In the two legs of the Us the shower holder 4 contains a circular recess which is delimited by a skirt 8 over a larger part of its circumference.

Der Stummelansatz 7, der einstückig an den beiden gegenüberliegenden Außenseiten des Hülsenelements 5 angeformt ist, weist in seinem Inneren eine kreisförmige Vertiefung 9 auf, während seine Außenseite die Form eines fünfstrahligen Sterns aufweist. Auf diesen stummelartigen Ansatz 7 ist eine Zahnscheibe 10 aufgesteckt, die beispielsweise aus einem anderen Material besteht. Die Zahnscheibe 10 weist an ihrer Außenseite eine Verzahnung 11 auf. Aufgrund der Sternform des Ansatzes 7 ist die Zahnscheibe 10 drehfest mit dem Hülsenelement 5 verbunden.The stub lug 7, which is integrally formed on the two opposite outer sides of the sleeve element 5, has a circular depression 9 in its interior, while its outer side has the shape of a five-pointed star. On this stub-like approach 7 a toothed disk 10 is plugged, which consists for example of a different material. The toothed disc 10 has teeth 11 on its outside. Due to the star shape of the extension 7, the toothed disk 10 is connected to the sleeve element 5 in a rotationally fixed manner.

In dem Brausehalter 4 ist innerhalb der Schürze 8 drehfest ein Rastelement 12 angeordnet, dessen drehfeste Verbindung durch einen bezüglich der angedeuteten Schwenkachse 13 radial nach außen gerichteten Vorsprung 14 gesichert ist. Dieses Rastelement 12 weist die Form eines Rings mit vier Bogenelementen 15, 16 auf, die durch Schwachstellen 17 miteinander verbunden sind. Je zwei einander gegenüberliegende Bogenelemente 16 weisen an ihrer radialen Innenseite eine der Verzahnung 11 entsprechende Innenverzahnung auf, während die beiden übrigen einander ebenfalls gegenüberliegenden Bogenelemente 15 an ihrer radialen Innenseite glatt ausgebildet sind. Alle Bogenelemente 15, 16 weisen eine glatte Außenfläche auf, die auf einer Zylinderfäche liegt.In the shower holder 4, a locking element 12 is arranged within the skirt 8 in a rotationally fixed manner, the rotationally fixed connection of which is secured by a projection 14 directed radially outward with respect to the indicated pivot axis 13. This locking element 12 has the shape of a ring with four arch elements 15, 16 which are connected to one another by weak points 17. Each two opposing arch elements 16 have on their radial inside an internal toothing corresponding to the toothing 11, while the other two opposing arch elements 15 are smooth on their radial inside. All arch elements 15, 16 have a smooth outer surface, which lies on a cylindrical surface.

Außerhalb der stummelartigen Ansätze 7 ist eine Ringfläche 17 gebildet, die radial außen von einer kurzen Schürze 18 begrenzt ist.Outside the stub-like lugs 7 an annular surface 17 is formed, which is delimited radially on the outside by a short apron 18.

Vor dem Aufsetzen der Zahnscheiben 10 ist die Innenkonusfläche des Hülsenelements 5, die Ringfläche 17 radial außerhalb der stummelartigen Ansätze 17 und der Boden der Vertiefungen 9 mit einer Auskleidung 19 aus einem Elastomermaterial verbunden. Dieses Elastomermaterial bildet auch am äußeren Rand der Ringfläche 17 ein kurzzylindrisches Ringelement 20, das mit seiner radialen Außenseite an der radialen Innenseite der Schürze 8 des Brausehalters 4 anliegt.Before the toothed disks 10 are put on, the inner conical surface of the sleeve element 5, the annular surface 17 radially outside the stub-like projections 17 and the bottom of the depressions 9 are connected to a lining 19 made of an elastomer material. This elastomeric material also forms on the outer edge of the ring surface 17 a short cylindrical ring element 20, which rests with its radial outside on the radial inside of the apron 8 of the shower holder 4.

Die Herstellung dieser Auskleidung geschieht dadurch, daß ausgehend von den Vertiefungen 9 in den stummelartigen sternförmigen Ansätzen 7 das Elastomermaterial durch durchgehende Öffnungen in dem Hülsenelement 5 nach innen gespritzt wird, von wo aus es durch weitere durchgehende Öffnungen in den Ringraum radial außerhalb der Ansätze 7 gelangt.The production of this lining takes place in that, starting from the recesses 9 in the stub-like star-shaped lugs 7, the elastomer material is injected inward through through openings in the sleeve element 5, from where it reaches the annular space radially outside the lugs 7 through further through openings .

Dadurch wird eine vollständige Bedeckung der Innenkonusfläche des Hülsenelements 5 sowie der äußeren Seiten erreicht. Das Ringelement 20 liegt, siehe Fig. 1, zwischen den Schürzen 8 und der Außenseite des Rastelements 12.As a result, the inner conical surface of the sleeve element 5 and the outer sides are completely covered. The ring element 20, see FIG. 1, lies between the aprons 8 and the outside of the locking element 12.

In größerer Einzelheit ist die Anordnung der Auskleidung 19 des Hülsenelements 5 in Fig. 3 zu sehen. Die Auskleidung 19 bedeckt, wie bereits erwähnt, die Innenkonusfläche und steht über Durchbrüche mit dem Ringelement 20 in Verbindung. Auch der Boden der Ringfläche 17 ist abgedeckt.The arrangement of the lining 19 of the sleeve element 5 can be seen in more detail in FIG. 3. As already mentioned, the lining 19 covers the inner conical surface and is connected to the ring element 20 via openings. The bottom of the annular surface 17 is also covered.

Bei der Verschwenkung des Hülsenelements 5 gegenüber dem Brausehalter 4 werden durch die Verdrehung der Zahnscheibe 10 gegenüber dem ortsfest bleibenden Rastelement 12 die mit der Innenverzahnung versehenen Bogenelemente 16 nach außen gedrückt. Dabei verformen sich die Schwachstellen 17 zwischen den einzelnen Bogenelementen 15, 16. Nach kurzer radialer Verschiebung nach außen liegen die Bogenelemente 16 an der Innenseite des Ringelements 20 an, so daß ihre Weiterbewegung nach außen durch das etwas verformbare Elastomermaterial des Ringelements 20 begrenzt wird. Dadurch läßt sich das Rastelement 16 bzw. die Schwachstellen 17 zwischen den Bogenelementen schwächer ausbilden, da ein großer Teil der Kräfte von dem Elastomermaterial aufgenommen wird. Zusätzlich ergibt sich aufgrund der Dämpfungseigenschaften des Elastomermaterials eine Geräuschdämmung bzw. ein weniger hartes Verrasten, was für den Benutzer ein angenehmeres Gefühl gibt. Die Verschwenkung des Hülsenelements geschieht dadurch, daß der Benutzer an der eingesteckten Brause angreift.When the sleeve element 5 is pivoted relative to the shower holder 4, the arch elements 16 provided with the internal toothing are pressed outwards by the rotation of the toothed disk 10 relative to the latching element 12 which remains stationary. The weak points 17 deform between the individual arch elements 15, 16. After a brief radial displacement outwards, the arch elements 16 lie against the inside of the ring element 20, so that their further movement outwards is limited by the somewhat deformable elastomer material of the ring element 20. As a result, the locking element 16 or the weak points 17 between the arch elements can be made weaker, since a large part of the forces are absorbed by the elastomer material. In addition, the damping properties of the elastomer material result in noise insulation or less hard locking, which gives the user a more pleasant feeling. The pivoting of the sleeve element occurs in that the user engages in the inserted shower.

Beim Einstecken der Brause in axialer Richtung in das Hülsenelement ergibt sich, daß der Benutzer nur mit geringerer Kraft einzuschieben braucht, da das Elastomermaterial der Auskleidung eine vergrößerte Haftreibung aufweist.When the shower is inserted in the axial direction into the sleeve element, the user only has to push in with less force because the elastomer material of the lining has an increased static friction.

Wie aus Fig. 3 zu entnehmen ist, erstreckt sich die Elastomerauskleidung vom oberen Rand 21 des Hülsenelements 5 bis kurz vor dessen unterem Rand 22. Im Bereich des unteren Rands 22 ist eine Innenschulter 23 gebildet, an der die Unterkante der Auskleidung 19 anliegt. Sie steht radial nach innen etwas vor, so daß der Brausegriff von dem festeren Material des Hülsenelements 5 nicht daran gehindert wird, das Elastomermaterial der Auskleidung etwas zu komprimieren.As can be seen from FIG. 3, the elastomer lining extends from the upper edge 21 of the sleeve element 5 to just before its lower edge 22. In the region of the lower edge 22, an inner shoulder 23 is formed, against which the lower edge of the lining 19 lies. It protrudes radially inwards somewhat, so that the shower handle is not prevented by the firmer material of the sleeve element 5 from compressing the elastomer material of the lining somewhat.

Zur Sicherung der Festlegung des Elastomermaterials können einzelne Vertiefungen 24 vorgesehen sein, in die das Material eingespritzt ist. Zusätzlich können weitere Maßnahmen ergriffen werden, die zu einem besseren Haften des Elastomermaterials führen.To secure the fixing of the elastomer material, individual depressions 24 can be provided, into which the material is injected. In addition, further measures can be taken that lead to better adhesion of the elastomer material.
