Definitions

  • Sanitary fittings designed as single-lever mixers are known. They have largely replaced the previously used mixer taps with two manually adjustable valves for cold and warm water and usually consist of a mixer tap with only one operating lever, which actuates a control piston arranged in the mixer tap via a control rod.
  • the operating lever can be swiveled laterally as well as vertically. While the mixing of cold and warm water is carried out by the lateral pivoting movement, the amount of water is regulated by the vertical pivoting movement.
  • the invention is essentially based on the idea of connecting an electrically controllable valve to the mixer tap of the single-lever mixer, the function of which depends not only on the switching signals of the control electronics, but also on the position of the actuating lever of the fitting.
  • the control rod connected to the actuating lever and the electrically controllable valve are preferably mechanically coupled to one another in such a way that the valve remains closed in spite of corresponding opening signals etc. generated by the proximity sensor, provided that the mixer tap is also closed ( the operating lever of the valve is usually in its lower position).
  • the electrically controllable valve remains open even without corresponding opening signals from the proximity sensor, provided that the mixer tap is fully opened by actuating the control rod (the lever of the fitting is generally in its upper position).
  • the electrically controllable valve is opened and closed solely by the control signals generated by the proximity sensor and processed by the control electronics.
  • Mixer tap to design such that when the mixer tap is fully open, a reduction in the
  • An essential advantage of the single lever mixer according to the invention is that regardless of whether the valve is operated contactlessly or is operated purely manually in the event of a power failure, the mixing function of the valve is not impaired.
  • FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a single-lever mixer according to the invention with a schematically indicated mixer tap and a solenoid valve, both of which can be actuated by the same control rod;
  • Fig. 3 is a diagram showing the position of the permanent magnet of the solenoid valve as a function of the position of the control rod and
  • 1 denotes a single-lever mixer which is attached to a wash basin 2, for example.
  • the single mixer 1 is connected to both a cold water line 3 and a hot water line 4.
  • the solenoid valve 14 loses its bistable behavior in these positions.
  • the liquid inlets and outlets of the solenoid valve 14 are designated by the reference numerals 35 and 36.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une robinetterie sanitaire se présentant sous forme de mitigeur monocommande avec une robinetterie mélangeuse (11) pour mélanger du liquide froid et du liquide chaud, ainsi que pour réguler le débit de liquide. La robinetterie mélangeuse (11) peut passer d'une position fermée à une position ouverte par l'intermédiaire d'une tige de commande reliée à un levier de manoeuvre (8). Afin d'arriver à ce que le mitigeur monocommande (1) puisse être enclenché et désenclenché aussi bien sans contact que manuellement, il est prévu selon l'invention de monter en aval de la robinetterie mélangeuse (11) un clapet (14) à commande électrique dont la fonction ne dépend pas uniquement des signaux de commutation émis par l'unité électronique de commande (39), mais également de la position du levier de manoeuvre (8) du robinet. A cet effet, la tige de commande (10) reliée au levier de manoeuvre (8) et le clapet à commande électrique (14) sont de préférence accouplés mécaniquement, de manière que d'une part le clapet (14) demeure fermé, en dépit des signaux d'ouverture produits par le détecteur de proximité (37), tant que la robinetterie mélangeuse (11) reste fermée. D'autre part, le clapet (14) reste ouvert, même en l'absence de signaux d'ouverture correspondants produits par le détecteur de proximité (37), tant que la robinetterie mélangeuse (11) entièrement ouverte par actionnement de la tige de commande (10).
