Definitions

• a wall urinal is proposed in the document DE 27 57 759 C2, which is distinguished by a particularly narrow construction, which is achieved in that the molded siphon is pivoted through 90 ° into a plane lying parallel to the mounting surface.
• a wall urinal which is characterized by a double-shell drip tray, the front or top wall being divided into two half-shells provided with a gradient towards the center by a column-shaped opening arranged in the middle .
• the urine volume is collected from the top taken, led to the center and passed through a column-shaped opening into a collecting tray forming a lower tray in a known arrangement.
• a large number of urinals are known in the medical field, which are characterized by small dimensions, some of which are also provided with drains and flushing devices, but due to their small, if appropriate, also adjacent urine inlet openings, according to their conception, are to be used exclusively for personal use.
• the common disadvantage of the wall urinals lies in the fact that splashes and spray mist that cannot be avoided spread freely due to the spacious input opening. Contamination, especially clothing, can hardly be prevented in the vicinity of such devices. This effect is particularly pronounced when a wall-mounted urinal installed at a normal height is used by tall men, since either the distance between the delivery point and the impact surface becomes larger or the splashes that fall back on the impact surface are directed in all directions can freely spread out of the plane of the impact surface. Due to the relatively large dimensions, these urinals require large amounts of flushing water. In addition, the large dimensions do not permit an often desired installation in small rooms, in particular bathrooms and guest toilets. Another major disadvantage of the urinals mounted at a certain height is that the usage properties deteriorate as the body length of the user increases.
• the urinals known in the medical field are indeed suitable to at least partially address the above-mentioned weak points. to counteract this, but is unsuitable for a changing group of users, in particular for hygienic reasons.
• the object of the invention is to create a urinal which reduces contamination by urine splashes in its surroundings, offers users of different heights equally good use properties, due to its small dimensions, even for small rooms is suitable and uses little flushing water as a urinal with flushing device.
• the urinal according to the invention can be fastened to a wall or a stand, with a tubular structure which is closed at one end by a drip tray with a drain and on which the The collecting tray on the opposite end is closed by a lid-like head part, a longitudinal slot being arranged as a urine input opening in the central region of the tubular structure, the tubular structure being approximately vertical with the head part facing upwards and the plane of the longitudinal slot or the tubular structure above Direction of the wall opposite the longitudinal slot is inclined from the vertical by 0 to 30 °.
• the advantages achieved by the invention are, in particular, that the area of the input opening can be reduced to a minimum, with the result that the splashes reflected in the impact of the urine jet are essentially only due to the relatively narrow input opening - Broken tubular hollow bodies remain.
• the slot-like nature of the input opening opens up this advantage equally to a relatively large group of users of different sizes, the narrow one
• the design allows the user to get close enough to the inlet opening to safely guide the urine jet into the urine inlet.
• the comparatively small and thus also lightweight construction enables the installation of such a urinal in the smallest spaces and in many variations with regard to the connection.
• the Uri ⁇ nal invention can also be designed in a variety of ways with regard to its technical properties and design.
• the longitudinal slit of the urinal according to the invention is larger than the average size of the urine inlet opening in medical urinals and smaller than this in conventional known wall-mounted urinals and at least twice as long as wide and has about pa ⁇ in the longitudinal direction at least over a third of the total length parallel edges and maximum the width of the tubular structure.
• the advantage of this further embodiment lies in the optimization of the advantages mentioned above by the selection of particularly suitable dimensions of the long slot of the urinary ice according to the invention.
• the urinal body has an approximately constant width along the longitudinal slot, which does not exceed three times the slot width.
• the enclosed space of the urinal remains visible to the user and at the same time the surface to be rinsed does not exceed a maximum dimension in relation to the slot width.
• the depth of the urinal body increases from top to bottom and the width of the urinal body along the longitudinal slot remains approximately the same. It is advantageous here that even in the case of a urinal according to the invention, the assembly surface can be formed in a simplified manner from the rear wall with a simultaneous inclined arrangement of the input opening.
• the urinal can be attached in a variety of configurations due to the five-sided possible attachment can be installed as an additional device on existing sanitary objects, adding a urinal function.
• the longitudinal slot is surrounded by a flushing water guiding channel protruding into the tubular structure.
• the rinsing water due to the geometry of the wall, reaches areas of the wall which are not perpendicular to the rinsing device arranged above.
• the urinal has a holder which can be pivoted in the horizontal plane and or which can be inclined in the vertical plane by 0 to 30 °, the flushing water inlet and the waste water outlet being flexible as a supply or disposal hose in the embodiment with a flushing device or are arranged pivotably or inclinably as tubes with joints. It is advantageous here that the urinal can be swung from a use position into a rest position in a space-saving manner and that it is also possible to optimally adapt the position of the longitudinal slot to the user.
• the urinal has a dirty water drainage system with a low cross-section.
• the urinal can also be designed as a transportable urinal which can be used independently of an existing water supply or waste water disposal.
• exemplary embodiments of the urinal according to the invention are described below with reference to the drawing: It shows
• Fig. 2 - a longitudinal section through Fig. L along the line
• the pivotable holder 23 is pivotably arranged with the pivot hinge 26 in the horizontal plane, so that the urinal can be brought into a space-saving position laterally to the wall 7.
• the pivotable holder 23 has a joint 27 below the urinal body 1, which makes it possible to incline the urinal at an angle up to 30 ° to the wall 7 and to fix it, for example, by means of a clamping screw 28 arranged in the pivot point.
• the pivot hinge 26 is preferably to be provided with a travel limitation and detents generating preferred positions.
• the flushing device of this urinal is connected via a flexible supply hose 29 to the water connection provided by the customer or, alternatively to the shut-off valve 25, to a flush valve to be mounted on the wall 7.
• the process 4 opens into a disposal hose 30, optionally bent into a siphon, which opens into an on-site drain pipe.
• the urinal is fastened to the wall 7 by means of conventional fastening elements through the fastening bores 18.
• the embodiment of the urinal shown in FIG. 4 can be provided in a simple manner with a cover closing the input opening.
• a second larger pipe or pipe segment surrounding the pipe 20 which is provided with a congruent longitudinal slot and is rotatably mounted in its body axis, can be pivoted around the inner pipe in such a way that the urine inlet opening is closed.
• the urinal according to the invention can be made from any urine-resistant material.
• the production can in particular be carried out by machining, non-cutting shaping or by casting or injection molding, it also being possible to include common semi-finished products such as pipes in the production of the urinal body.
• the embodiment of the urinal shown in FIG. 4 enables a modular system, for example the holder, the bottom part underneath and the head part put on remain the same and, if desired, differently colored pipes are used as the middle part.
• the mounting surface 17 of the urinal shown in FIG. 1 can be provided on the underside of the urinal body 1 or the holder 23 of the urinal shown in FIG.
