Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Unterputzventil.The invention is based on a flush valve.

Unterputzventile haben in der Regel einen Ventilkörper, der an einer Wasserleitung in einer Gebäudewand angeschlossen wird. Dabei ist die exakte Lage des Ventilkörpers nicht genau bestimmbar. Das Bedienelement zur Betätigung des Unterputzventils muß an der Vorderseite der Wand angebracht werden. Auch die Dicke der Putzschicht und ggf. der Fliesen läßt sich nicht exakt Voraussagen. Daher muß beim Unterputzventil eine Möglichkeit gegeben sein, die unterschiedlichen Putzdicken auszugleichen.Concealed valves usually have a valve body that connected to a water pipe in a building wall becomes. The exact position of the valve body is not exactly determinable. The control element for operating the Flush valve must be attached to the front of the wall will. Also the thickness of the plaster layer and possibly the tiles cannot be predicted exactly. Therefore, the flush valve be given an opportunity to use the different Compensate plaster thicknesses.

Es ist bereits ein Unterputzventil bekannt (EP-PS 281878), das an seiner Vorderseite eine teleskopartig zweiteilige Schutzhülse und in dieser eine teleskopartige Verlängerung der Drehspindel aufweist.A flush valve is already known (EP-PS 281878), the front is a telescopic two-part Protective sleeve and in this a telescopic extension the lathe has.

Die teleskopartige Ausbildung der Schutzhülse und der Verlängerung der Drehspindel bedeuten einen erhöhten Aufwand und haben zusätzlich den Nachteil, daß der Verstellbereich eingeschränkt ist. The telescopic design of the protective sleeve and the extension the rotating spindle means an increased effort and have the additional disadvantage that the adjustment range is restricted.

Der Erfindung liegt Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Unterputzventil zu schaffen, das bei einfachem Aufbau und einfacher Montage einen besonders großen Ausgleichsbereich aufweist.The invention has for its object to a flush valve create that with simple construction and simple assembly has a particularly large compensation area.

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

Das Außenrohr und das Verlängerungselement für das Betätigungselement dienen dazu, den Abstand zwischen der Wandoberfläche und dem Ventilgehäuse zu überbrücken.The outer tube and the extension element for the actuating element serve the distance between the wall surface and to bridge the valve housing.

Um ein solches Ventil an unterschiedliche Putzdicken besser anpassen zu können, kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, daß das Verlängerungselement verkürzbar bzw. ablängbar ausgebildet ist.To make such a valve better at different plaster thicknesses To be able to adapt, the invention can provide that the extension element can be shortened or cut to length is.

Bei der Installation braucht der Installateur nur mit den ihm zu Verfügung stehenden und ständig mitgeführten Werkzeugen das Außenrohr und/oder das Verlängerungselement zu verkürzen. Dies kann beispielsweise mit einer einfachen Säge geschehen, falls das Außenrohr oder das Verlängerungselement aus Metall besteht. Auch bei einer Herstellung aus Kunststoff kann das Rohr abgesägt werden. Das Absägen scheint zwar ein zusätzlicher Arbeitsschritt zu sein, bedeutet andererseits aber auch, daß das Unterputzventil deutlich einfacher aufgebaut sein kann und daß der Verstellbereich größer ist.When installing, the installer only needs with him available and constantly carried tools shorten the outer tube and / or the extension element. This can be done with a simple saw, for example, if the outer tube or the extension element is made of metal consists. This can also be the case with a plastic production Tube are sawn off. The sawing off seems an additional one On the other hand, being a work step also means that the flush valve can be constructed much easier can and that the adjustment range is larger.

Zur Erleichterung des Absägens kann vorgesehen sein, daß das Außenrohr und/oder das Verlängerungselement Abtrennkerben aufweisen. Diese können in einem regelmäßigen Abstand von beispielsweise 5 Millimetern angeordnet sein. Sie erleichtern das Ansetzen der Säge und machen es möglich, daß der Installateur nur an den Kerben abzuzählen braucht, wie weit er das Rohr abzusägen hat.To facilitate sawing it can be provided that the Outer tube and / or the extension element separating notches exhibit. These can be found at a regular interval from for example 5 millimeters. They make it easier the saw and make it possible for the installer all he has to do is count how far he can Saw off the pipe.

Solche Abtrennkerben sind insbesondere auch dann von Vorteil, wenn das entsprechende Element mit einem Außengewinde versehen ist. Dann können die Kerben dazu dienen, zu verhindern, daß beim Absägen die Gewindewindungen beschädigt oder zerstört werden.Such cut-off notches are also particularly advantageous if if the corresponding element has an external thread is. Then the notches can serve to prevent that the thread windings are damaged or destroyed when sawing off will.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß das Außenrohr zur Anbringung einer Rosette ausgebildet ist.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the Outer tube is designed to attach a rosette.

Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, daß an dem Außenrohr eine Hülse anbringbar ist, die die Rosette an der Wandoberfläche festlegt. Dies kann durch Formschluß, Kraftschluß oder in sonstiger Weise erfolgen, z. B. durch eine Rastverbindung.In particular, it can be provided that a Sleeve is attachable, the rosette on the wall surface specifies. This can be done by positive, non-positive or in otherwise done, e.g. B. by a snap connection.

Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, daß die an dem Außenrohr anbringbare Hülse eine Mutter mit einer zylindrischen Außenseite ist. Die Mutter wird dabei mit Hilfe eines Gewindes an dem Außenrohr festgelegt. Dieses Aufschrauben bildet eine der Möglichkeiten, zu erreichen, daß das Unterputzventil einen stufenlosen Ausgleichsbereich aufweist.In particular, it can be provided that the on the outer tube attachable sleeve a nut with a cylindrical outside is. The nut is attached using a thread the outer tube. This screwing is one of the Possibilities to achieve that the flush valve one has stepless compensation area.

Die zylindrische Außenseite, die ggf. poliert, verchromt oder in sonstiger Weise als sichtbare Oberfläche gestaltet ist, dient dabei zum Ausgleich eines Spalts, der zwischen der Rosette und dem Handgriff noch bestehen bleiben kann.The cylindrical outside, which may be polished, chrome or is otherwise designed as a visible surface, serves to compensate for a gap between the Rosette and the handle can still remain.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Länge der zylindrischen Außenseite der Mutter größer ist als der Abstand der Trennkerben des Verlängerungselements. Denn die Trennkerben bestimmen das kleinste Maß, um das eine Anpassung an die Putzdicke möglich ist. Ein noch vorhandener Spalt zwischen dem Griff und der Rosette wird dann durch die zylindrische Hülse bzw. deren Außenseite überdeckt. Die weitere stufenlose Feineinstellung kann durch die Mitnahmespindel erfolgen.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the Length of the cylindrical outside of the nut is greater than the distance of the separation notches of the extension element. Because the separating notches determine the smallest dimension by one Adaptation to the plaster thickness is possible. An existing one The gap between the handle and the rosette is then through the cylindrical sleeve or the outside covered. The further infinitely fine adjustment can be done by the driving spindle respectively.

Insbesondere kann in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, daß der Griff über ein Adapterelement mit dem Verlängerungselement verbindbar ist.In particular, it can be provided in further training that the Handle via an adapter element with the extension element is connectable.

Dabei kann mit Vorteil insbesondere vorgesehen sein, daß das der Befestigung zugeordnete Ende des Adapterelements genauso aufgebaut ist wie das Betätigungselement selbst. Daher kann ein normaler Griff, wie er auch ohne Verbindungselement verwendbar ist, zusammen mit dem Verbindungselement benutzt werden.It can advantageously be provided in particular that the the attachment associated end of the adapter element as well is constructed like the actuating element itself a normal handle, like the one without a connecting element can be used together with the connecting element will.

Zur weiteren Verbesserung der Möglichkeit, das Unterputzventil an unterschiedliche Putzdicken anzupassen, kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, daß das Adapterelement in verschiedenen axialen Positionen und/oder Drehpositionen mit dem Griff und/oder dem Verbindungselement verbindbar ist.To further improve the possibility of the concealed valve to adapt to different plaster thicknesses can be inventively be provided that the adapter element in different axial positions and / or rotational positions with the handle and / or the connecting element can be connected.

Beispielsweise kann das Adapterelement mit dem Verbindungselement über eine Steckverbindung verbunden werden. Besonders günstig ist es jedoch, wenn das Adapterelement über eine Gewindeverbindung mit dem Verbindungselement verbunden wird. Dann ist eine stufenlose Anpassung an die verschiedenen Putzdicken möglich.For example, the adapter element with the connecting element can be connected via a plug connection. Especially However, it is favorable if the adapter element has a Threaded connection is connected to the connecting element. Then there is a continuous adjustment to the different Plaster thicknesses possible.

Da die Bedienung des Unterputzventils in der Regel eine Drehbewegung darstellt, kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, daß die Festlegung in Betätigungsrichtung durch axiale und/oder radiale Stifte erfolgt. Diese können, sobald die korrekte Position des Adapterelements gegenüber dem Verbindungselement erfolgt ist, in entsprechende Öffnungen eingesteckt oder eingeschoben werden. Since the operation of the concealed valve is usually a Represents rotary movement, can be provided according to the invention, that the definition in the direction of actuation by axial and / or radial pins. As soon as the correct position of the adapter element relative to the connecting element is inserted into appropriate openings or inserted.

Hierzu kann insbesondere vorgesehen sein, daß das Gewinde des Adapterelements und das Gewinde des Verbindungselements axiale komplementäre Nuten aufweisen, die bei gegenseitiger Ausrichtung einen axialen Stift aufnehmen.For this purpose, it can in particular be provided that the thread of the Adapter element and the thread of the connecting element have axial complementary grooves that are mutual Alignment take up an axial pin.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, daß der Rand des Griffes über die Hülse greift.According to the invention it can be provided that the edge of the Grips over the sleeve.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, daß das Außenrohr auf das Ventilgehäuse aufschraubbar ist. Damit läßt sich das Außenrohr auch abnehmen, falls bei eingebautem Ventilgehäuse ein sogenanntes Ventiloberteil von der Vorderseite her entfernt werden soll.According to the invention it can be provided that the outer tube the valve housing can be screwed on. So that can be Also remove the outer tube if the valve housing is installed a so-called valve top from the front should be removed.

Im nochmaliger Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß das Adapterelement mit seiner Außenseite an der Innenseite des Außenrohrs bei Betätigung des Ventils geführt wird. Damit wird ein Griffwackeln verhindert und außerdem die Ventilspindel von Radialkräften entlastet.In a further development of the invention can be provided be that the adapter element with its outside on the Guided inside the outer tube when operating the valve becomes. This prevents a wobble and also the Valve spindle relieved of radial forces.

Zur Festlegung des Adapterelements 22 in einer einmal eingenommenen axialen Position gegenüber dem Verbindungselement 18 dienen axial verlaufende Stifte 27, die nach der Justierung des Adapterelements 22 gegenüber dem Verlängerungselements 18 eingesetzt werden. Diese Wirkung der Stifte 27 wird schematisch unter Bezug auf die Figur 2 erläutert.The handle 24 has a handle shell, the outer one Edge region 25 over the front edge 26 of the outer sleeve 15 spreads. The front edge 26 is therefore for the viewer not visible since it is covered by the handle 24. Of the User can only change the space between the edge 25 of the Handle 24 and the rosette 11 see, at this point the optically appealing exterior 16 of the sleeve 15 can be seen. To fix the adapter element 22 in once in an axial position opposite the Connecting element 18 serve axially extending pins 27 which after adjusting the adapter element 22 relative to the Extension element 18 are used. This effect of Pins 27 is shown schematically with reference to FIG. 2 explained.

Fig. 2 zeigt einem Querschnitt durch den vorderen Bereich des Verlängerungselements 18 und das Adapterelement 22. Die Außenseite des Verbindungselements 18 enthält im dargestellten Beispiel zwei im Querschnitt halbkreisförmige Nuten 28. Die Innenseite des Adapterelements 22 enthält ebenfalls zwei im Querschnitt halbkreisförmige Nuten 29. Die Nuten 28 in dem Verlängerungselement 18 und die Nuten 29 in dem Adapterelement 22 verlaufen in axialer Richtung. Sie weisen den gleichen Krümmungsradius auf. In einer bestimmten Winkelstellung, die in Figur 2 dargestellt ist, ergänzen sich jeweils zwei Nuten 28, 29 zu einer zylindrischen Öffnung. In dieser Öffnung bzw. das dadurch gebildete Loch wird jeweils ein Verriegelungsstift 27 eingesteckt. Dadurch ist die Winkelposition festgelegt. Sobald auch nur ein einziger Stift 27 eingeschoben ist, führt ein Drehen des Adapterelements 22 zu einer Drehung des Verriegelungselements 18 und damit zur Betätigung des Betätigungselements 18 des Ventils.Fig. 2 shows a cross section through the front region of the Extension element 18 and the adapter element 22. Die Outside of the connecting element 18 contains in the shown Example two grooves 28 which are semicircular in cross section. The inside of the adapter element 22 also contains two Cross-sectionally semicircular grooves 29. The grooves 28 in the Extension element 18 and the grooves 29 in the adapter element 22 run in the axial direction. They point out the same Radius of curvature. In a certain angular position, that is shown in Figure 2, two complement each other Grooves 28, 29 to a cylindrical opening. In this The opening or the hole formed thereby becomes a Locking pin 27 inserted. This is the angular position fixed. As soon as even a single pin 27 is inserted, leads to a rotation of the adapter element 22 a rotation of the locking element 18 and thus for Actuation of the actuating element 18 of the valve.

Die Stifte 27 weisen an ihrem einen, in Figur 1 rechten Ende einen leicht verbreiterten Kopf 30 auf, der ihr Einschieben in die durch die Nuten gebildeten Löcher begrenzt. An der Außenseite des Kopfes 30 liegt dann die Schnappverbindung 24a an, die auf das vordere Ende des Adapterelements 22 aufgeschraubt ist. The pins 27 have at their one end, which is on the right in FIG. 1 a slightly widened head 30, which you insert limited in the holes formed by the grooves. At the The snap connection 24a is then located on the outside of the head 30 screwed onto the front end of the adapter element 22 is.

Diese Sicherungsstifte können auch durch mit dem Adapterelement 22 oder dem Verbindungselement 18 einstückige Schnappzungen o. dgl. verwirklicht werden. Dann könnte das Adapterelement 22 und die Schnappverbindung 24a einstückig sein.These locking pins can also be used with the adapter element 22 or the connecting element 18 one-piece snap tongues or the like. Then the adapter element 22 and the snap connection 24a can be in one piece.

Zur Anpassung des Unterputzventils an unterschiedliche Putzdicken, was erst nach dem Aufbringen der Putzschicht 2 und ggf. einer Verfliesung festgestellt wird, wird das Außenrohr 10 und das Verlängerungselement 18 entsprechend verkürzt, beispielsweise mit einer Säge abgesägt. Dies kann der Installateur tun. Gegebenenfalls kann er die beiden Rohre in einem Schnitt gleich lang durchtrennen.To adapt the concealed valve to different plaster thicknesses, what only after applying the plaster layer 2 and if tiling is found, the outer pipe 10 and the extension element 18 shortened accordingly, sawed off with a saw, for example. The installer can do this to do. If necessary, he can combine the two pipes in one Cut through the same length.

Zur Erleichterung des Ablängens enthält die Außenseite des Außenrohrs 10 einzelne umlaufende Abtrennkerben 32, die beispielsweise in einem axialen Abstand von 5 mm angeordnet sind und etwas tiefer gehen als die Gewindegänge des Außengewindes 12. Wenn der Installateur in diesen Kerben 32 sägt, so beschädigt er dadurch das Außengewinde 12 nicht.To facilitate cutting to length, the outside of the Outer tube 10 individual circumferential separation notches 32, the for example, arranged at an axial distance of 5 mm and go a little deeper than the threads of the external thread 12. If the installer saws 32 in these notches, so it does not damage the external thread 12.

In gleicher Weise enthält die Außenseite des Verbindungselements 18 Abtrennkerben 33, die ebenfalls in einem bestimmten axialem Abstand angeordnet sind, der vorzugsweise dem Abstand der Abtrennkerben 32 des Außenrohrs 10 gleich ist.In the same way contains the outside of the connecting element 18 cut-off notches 33, also in a certain Axial distance are arranged, which is preferably the distance the separation notches 32 of the outer tube 10 is the same.

Auf die dargestellte Weise läßt sich das eingebaute Ventil nach Fertigstellung der Deckschicht so anpassen, daß der Griff immer an der gewünschten Position in Relation zu der Wandoberfläche angeordnet werden kann. Das Ventil ist einfach aufgebaut und weist einen sehr großen Verstellbereich auf.In the way shown, the built-in valve can after completion of the top layer adjust so that the Grip always in the desired position in relation to the Wall surface can be arranged. The valve is simple constructed and has a very large adjustment range.
