Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Thermostatarmatur.The invention is based on a thermostatic fitting.

Zum Anschluß von Thermostatarmaturen ist die Aufputz-Bauweise bekannt, bei der die Armatur mit zwei S-Anschlüssen an der Installation angebracht wird.The surface-mounted design is for connecting thermostatic fittings known, in which the valve with two S-connections on the Installation is installed.

Ebenfalls bekannt sind Unterputz-Thermostaten, die häufig in einem Unterputzventil-Gehäuse angebracht sind. Das Unterputzgehäuse wird von rechts und links mit Kalt- und Warmwasser versorgt. Der Abgang für die Brause und die Wanne geschieht dabei häufig nach oben und nach unten. Zum Abdecken der Öffnung, in der das Gehäuse angeordnet ist, wird eine Abdeckrosette verwendet, die aber ziemlich groß ist. Diese Bauweise eignet sich nur für eine Montage unter Putz.Also known are concealed thermostats, which are common in a flush valve housing are attached. The flush-mounted housing is from the right and left with cold and hot water provided. The outlet for the shower and the tub happens often up and down. To cover the Opening in which the housing is arranged is a cover rosette used, which is quite large. This design is only suitable for flush mounting.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Möglichkeit zu schaffen, eine sanitäre Mischarmatur an dem Wannenrand selbst einbauen zu können, d. h. an einer Stelle, wo wenig Platz zur Verfügung steht und eine spätere Zugriffsmöglichkeit nicht mehr besteht. The invention has for its object a possibility create a sanitary mixer tap on the tub rim itself to be able to install, d. H. in a place where there is little space for Is available and a later access option is not more exists.

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

Das von der Erfindung vorgeschlagene sanitäre Mischventil wird in einer Öffnung des flächigen Elements befestigt. Es kann sich dabei insbesondere um den Wannenrand handeln. Auf der einen Seite, der sogenannten Vorderseite, ist das Bedienelement angeordnet. Bei üblichen Wannenrändern handelt es sich dabei eigentlich um die Oberseite, jedoch scheint der Begriff Vorderseite und Rückseite hier geeigneter zu sein.The sanitary mixing valve proposed by the invention is attached in an opening of the flat element. It can in particular be the tub rim. On one side, the so-called front, is the control element arranged. The usual tub edges are actually around the top, but it seems Term front and back to be more suitable here.

Die Anschlüsse, nämlich ein Anschluß für kaltes Wasser und ein Anschluß für Warmwasser, führen auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, also der Rückseite, in das Armaturengehäuse. Diese Rückseite ist durch den Wannenrand, die Wanne selbst und ggf. eine Wand gegen Sicht abgedeckt. Diese Abdeckung macht in den meisten Fällen auch einen späteren Zugang zu der Unterseite und damit zu dem Armaturengehäuse bzw. seinen Anschlüssen unmöglich.The connections, namely a connection for cold water and a connection for hot water, lead on the opposite Side, i.e. the back, into the valve body. This Back is through the tub rim, the tub itself and possibly a wall covered against sight. This cover makes in in most cases later access to the bottom and thus to the valve body or its connections impossible.

Für eine Eignung als Mischarmatur, die an dem Rand einer Badewanne anbringbar ist, kann erfindungsgemäß in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, daß das Armaturengehäuse im wesentlichen vollständig auf einer Seite des die Befestigungsöffnung enthaltenden Elements angeordnet ist, insbesondere auf der dem Betätigungselement abgewandten Rückseite des Elements, also des Badewannenrands.For suitability as a mixer tap on the edge of a Bathtub can be attached, according to the invention in a further development be provided that the valve body essentially completely on one side of the mounting hole containing element is arranged, in particular on the back of the element facing away from the actuating element, So the edge of the bathtub.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß das Armaturengehäuse am Rand der Befestigungsöffnung festgeschraubt ist, insbesondere von der Rückseite des diese enthaltenden Elements, also beispielsweise des Wannenrands. Die Befestigung kann dabei derart geschehen, daß das Armaturengehäuse von der Vorderseite her durch die Öffnung hindurch gesteckt wird und am Rand der Öffnung mit einer Schulter anliegt. Von der Rückseite kann dann eine Klemmschraube oder ein Ring mit Klemmschrauben angebracht werden und gegen die Schulter verspannt werden. Auf diese Weise wird das Armaturengehäuse in sehr einfacher Weise an dem Wannenrand festgelegt.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the The valve body is screwed to the edge of the mounting opening is, especially from the back of this containing element, for example the tub rim. The attachment can be done in such a way that the valve body from the front through the opening is stuck and at the edge of the opening with one shoulder is present. Then a clamping screw or a ring with clamping screws can be attached and against the Shoulder tense. In this way, the valve body set in a very simple manner on the tub edge.

In nochmaliger Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Mischeinrichtung von der dem Betätigungselement zugeordneten Vorderseite her aus dem Armaturengehäuse entnehmbar ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß mit geringem Aufwand ein Austausch oder eine Reparatur möglich ist.In a further development of the invention can be provided be that the mixing device of the the actuator assigned front can be removed from the valve body is. This has the advantage that with little effort an exchange or repair is possible.

Der Mischwasserabgang kann erfindungsgemäß in Weiterbildung ebenfalls, wie die Anschlüsse für Kaltwasser und Warmwasser, auf der Rückseite des Armaturengehäuses aus diesem herausführen, wobei insbesondere seine Achse in der gleichen Ebene wie die der beiden Anschlüsse liegt. Die Tatsache, daß die Achsen der beiden Anschlüsse in der gleichen Ebene liegen wie die Achse der Befestigungsöffnung, führt dazu, daß das Mischventil in einer Richtung senkrecht zu dieser Ebene sehr flach baut, so daß es zwischen einer Badewanne und einer Begrenzungswand eingesetzt werden kann. Es ist daher sinnvoll, dann auch den Mischwasserabgang, wenn er auf der Rückseite des Badewannenrands angeordnet ist, ebenfalls in dieser Ebene anzuordnen.The mixed water outlet can be developed according to the invention also like the connections for cold water and hot water, on the back of the valve body, in particular its axis in the same plane as that of the two connections. The fact that the axes of the two connections are on the same level as the Axis of the mounting hole, causes the mixing valve very flat in a direction perpendicular to this plane builds so that it is between a bathtub and a boundary wall can be used. It makes sense, then also the mixed water outlet if it is on the back of the Bathtub edges is arranged, also in this level to arrange.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Anschlüsse für Kaltwasser und für Warmwasser derart angeordnet und ausgebildet sind, daß in jedem Anschluß von der Vorderseite her ein Rückflußverhinderer eingesetzt und entnommen werden kann. Zu diesem Zweck kann es erforderlich sein, vorher die Mischeinrichtung aus dem Armaturengehäuse herauszunehmen. Rückflußverhinderer müssen ab und zu gereinigt werden, damit sie ihre Funktion weiter erfüllen können. Durch die Maßnahmen nach der Erfindung wird es möglich, die Rückflußverhinderer auszutauschen, ohne daß ein Zugriff auf den eigentlichen Anschluß möglich ist.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the Connections for cold water and for hot water arranged in this way and are designed so that in each connection of the Front a backflow preventer used and can be removed. For this purpose it may be necessary be, before the mixing device from the valve body to take out. Check valves have to be cleaned from time to time so that they can continue to perform their function. The measures according to the invention make it possible to Replace backflow preventer without having access to the actual connection is possible.

Eine Möglichkeit, wie die Anschlüsse und ggf. der Mischwasserabgang in einer Ebene mit der Achse der Befestigungsöffnung liegen könen, besteht darin, daß die Anschlüsse parallel zur Achse der Befestigungsöffnung verlaufen.One possibility, such as the connections and possibly the mixed water outlet in one plane with the axis of the fastening opening may be that the connections are parallel run to the axis of the fastening opening.

Eine zweite Möglichkeit ist dann gegeben, wenn die Anschlüsse schräg zur Achse der Befestigungsöffnung in das Armaturengehäuse einmünden.A second possibility is given when the connections diagonally to the axis of the fastening opening in the valve body flow into.

In beiden Fällen kann der Anschluß so ausgebildet werden, daß die Herausnahme eines Rückflußverhinderers zur Vorderseite hin möglich ist.In both cases, the connection can be designed so that the removal of a backflow preventer to the front is possible.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Rückflußverhinderer, ggf. auch sonstige Einsätze wie ein Sieb oder dergleichen, in einem zwischen den Anschlüssen und der Mischeinrichtung eingesetzten Zwischenboden angeordnet sind. Dann können sie zusammen mit dem Zwischenboden entnommen werden.According to the invention it can be provided that the backflow preventer, possibly also other inserts such as a sieve or the like, in one between the connections and the mixing device used intermediate floor are arranged. Then can be removed together with the intermediate shelf.

Weitere Merkmale, Einzelheiten und Vorzüge der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der folgenden Beschreibung einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform, den Patentansprüchen, deren Wortlaut durch Bezugnahme zum Inhalt der Beschreibung gemacht wird, sowie anhand der Zeichnung. Hierbei zeigt die einzige Figur einen Schnitt durch einen am Rand einer Badewanne angeordneten Thermostatmischer.Further features, details and advantages of the invention emerge from the following description of a preferred Embodiment, the claims, the wording of which Reference is made to the content of the description, as well based on the drawing. Here the only figure shows one Section through one arranged at the edge of a bathtub Thermostatic mixer.

Der in der einzigen Zeichnungsfigur dargestellte Schnitt ist durch den oberen Wannenrand 1 einer Badewanne 2 hindurch gelegt. Dieser Wannenrand 1 enthält eine kreisrunde Befestigungsöffnung 3, in die von der Oberseite des Wannenrands 1 ein Armaturengehäuse 4 eingesetzt ist. Das Armaturengehäuse 4 weist etwa Zylinderform auf und enthält im Bereich seines oberen bzw. äußeren Endes einen nach außen gerichteten Flansch 5, der auf seiner Unterseite eine Anlageschulter 6 bildet.The section shown in the single drawing figure is through the upper tub rim 1 of a bathtub 2 placed. This tub rim 1 contains a circular fastening opening 3, from the top of the tub rim 1 a valve housing 4 is inserted. The valve body 4 has approximately cylindrical shape and contains in the area of its upper or outer end an outward Flange 5, which has an abutment shoulder 6 on its underside forms.

Auf die Außenseite des Armaturengehäuses 4 wird eine Mutter 7 aufgeschraubt und in Richtung auf die Schulter 6 weiter geschraubt. Diese kommt dadurch an der Unterseite des Badewannenrands 1 zur Anlage und verklemmt das Armaturengehäuse 4 an dem Rand der Öffnung 3. Es sind auch andere Arten der Befestigung denkbar, beispielsweise einzelne über den Umfang verteilte Klemmschrauben. Der Außendurchmesser des Armaturengehäuses 4 im Bereich seines oberen bzw. äußeren Endes ist dabei etwas kleiner als der Innendurchmesser der Öffnung 3, jedoch nur um einem geringen Betrag. Das Armaturengehäuse 4 wird also auf diese Weise an der Badewanne 2 festgelegt.A nut 7 is placed on the outside of the valve housing 4 screwed on and continue towards shoulder 6 screwed. This comes at the bottom of the bathtub edge 1 to the system and jams the valve body 4 at the edge of the opening 3. There are other types of Attachment conceivable, for example individual over the circumference distributed clamping screws. The outside diameter of the valve body 4 is in the area of its upper or outer end slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the opening 3, but only by a small amount. The valve body 4 is thus fixed to the bath 2 in this way.

Das Armaturengehäuse 4, das in Richtung seiner Außenseite, in der Figur oben, offen ist, ist auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, d. h. der Rückseite des Badewannenrands 1, durch einen Boden 8 abgeschlossen. An den Boden 8 ist ein Anschluß 9 für kaltes Wasser, ein Anschluß 10 für warmes Wasser, sowie ein Mischwasserabgang 11 angesetzt, beispielsweise als einstückige Anschlußstutzen. Alle drei Anschlußstutzen liegen in einer Ebene, die gleichzeitig eine Längsmittelebene des Armaturengehäuses 4 ist. In dieser Ebene liegt auch die Achse der Öffnung 3 im Wannenrand 1, wobei unter Achse der Öffnung eine Linie zu verstehen ist, die die Öffnung mittig durchsetzt und senkrecht zur Fläche der Öffnung verläuft.The valve housing 4, which in the direction of its outside, in the figure above, is open, is on the opposite Side, d. H. the back of the bathtub rim 1, by a Floor 8 completed. At the bottom 8 is a connection 9 for cold water, a connection 10 for warm water, and a Mixed water outlet 11 set, for example as a one-piece Connecting piece. All three connecting pieces are in one Plane, which is also a longitudinal median plane of the valve body 4 is. The axis of the also lies in this plane Opening 3 in the tub rim 1, one under the axis of the opening Line is to be understood that passes through the opening in the middle and perpendicular to the surface of the opening.

Das Armaturengehäuse 4 ist so orientiert, daß die Ebene, in der die drei Anschlußstutzen liegen, parallel zu der in der Figur sichtbaren Seitenwand der Badewanne 2 liegt.The valve body 4 is oriented so that the level in which are the three connecting pieces, parallel to that in the Figure visible side wall of the bath 2 is.

Auf den Boden 8 des Armaturengehäuses 4 ist ein Zwischenboden 11 aufgelegt, der in seinem Innern im einzelnen nicht dargestellte Durchgänge für das Kaltwasser, das Warmwasser und das Mischwasser aufweist. Der Zwischenboden 11 ist so auf das Armaturengehäuse 4 abgestimmt, daß er nur in einer korrekten Position eingesetzt werden kann. In dieser korrekten Position sind alle Durchgänge in seinem Innern mit den entsprechenden Anschlußstutzen für das Warmwasser, das Kaltwasser und den Mischwasserabgang verbunden.On the bottom 8 of the valve body 4 is an intermediate floor 11 placed, the inside of which is not shown in detail Passages for cold water, hot water and that has mixed water. The intermediate floor 11 is so on Fitting housing 4 matched that it is only in a correct Position can be used. In this correct position are all the passages inside it with the corresponding ones Connection piece for the hot water, the cold water and the Mixed water outlet connected.

Der Zwischenboden 11 weist eine dem Innenraum des Armaturengehäuses 4 entsprechende Außenform auf, im dargestellten Beispiel also beispielsweise Zylinderform. Er kann von der Außenseite in das Armaturengehäuse 4 eingesetzt und auch wieder entnommen werden. Der Zwischenboden 11 enthält in Ausrichtung gegenüber dem Anschluß 9 für Kaltwasser und dem Anschluß 10 für Warmwasser je einen Rückflußverhinderer 12, der in dem Zwischenboden 11 gehalten wird. Nimmt man den Zwischenboden 11 aus dem Armaturengehäuse 4 heraus, so werden gleichzeitig auch die beiden Rückflußverhinderer 12 mit herausgenommen. Außerhalb des Armaturengehäuses 4 können sie aus dem Zwischenboden 11 entnommen und gesäubert oder auch ersetzt werden.The intermediate floor 11 has an interior of the fitting housing 4 corresponding outer shape, in the shown Example, for example, cylindrical shape. He can from the Inserted into the outside of the fitting housing 4 and also be removed again. The intermediate floor 11 contains in Alignment with connection 9 for cold water and the Connection 10 for hot water each a backflow preventer 12, which is held in the intermediate floor 11. If you take that Intermediate floor 11 out of the fitting housing 4, so at the same time also the two non-return valves 12 taken out. Outside the valve body 4, you can removed from the intermediate floor 11 and cleaned or else be replaced.

Oberhalb des Zwischenbodens 11 ist in dem Armaturengehäuse 4 die eigentliche Mischeinrichtung 13 untergebracht, beispielsweise ein Thermostatventil. Zu seiner Betätigung ist ein Betätigungselement 14 vorgesehen, beispielsweise eine Drehspindel, die aus der Oberseite des Armaturengehäuses 4 herausragt. Aus optischen Gründen kann auf die Außenseite des Flansches 5 eine Abdeckhaube 15 aufgeschraubt werden, durch die das Betätigungselement 14 hindurchgreift. Zum Entfernen der Mischeinrichtung 13 und des Zwischenbodens 11 aus dem Armaturengehäuse 4 braucht also nur die Abdeckhaube 15 abgeschraubt werden.Above the intermediate floor 11 is in the fitting housing 4th the actual mixing device 13 housed, for example a thermostatic valve. To operate it is a Actuating element 14 is provided, for example a rotating spindle, from the top of the valve body 4 protrudes. For optical reasons, the outside of the Flange 5 a cover 15 are screwed on which reaches through the actuating element 14. To remove the mixing device 13 and the intermediate floor 11 from the The fitting housing 4 therefore only needs the cover 15 be unscrewed.

Da alle drei Anschlußstutzen 9, 10, 11 in einer Ebene liegen, benötigt die Armatur einschließlich ihres Anschlusses an eine Installation mit Hilfe von Leitungen oder Schläuchen in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Papierebene nur wenig Platz. Der gleiche Vorteil könnte auch erreicht werden, wenn der Anschluß 9 für kaltes Wasser und/oder der Anschluß 10 für warmes Wasser schräg zu der Achse der Befestigungsöffnung verlaufen würden. Auch in diesem Fall wäre es noch möglich, einen am Anfang des Anschlußstutzens eingesetzten Rückflußverhinderer 12 noch von der Oberseite des Armaturengehäuses herauszunehmen.Since all three connecting pieces 9, 10, 11 lie in one plane, requires the valve including its connection to a Installation using cables or hoses in one In the direction perpendicular to the paper plane, there is little space. Of the same advantage could also be achieved if the connection 9 for cold water and / or the connection 10 for warm water at an angle to the axis of the mounting opening would run. In this case too, it would still be possible a non-return valve installed at the beginning of the connecting piece 12 still from the top of the valve body to take out.
