Definitions

  • the invention relates to a drain assembly for a cistern, comprising a bottom valve, an overflow pipe with a bottom valve closure member, a lifting device for opening the bottom valve and a hold-open device for the bottom valve during the emptying process.
  • Drain sets of this type are known, the overflow pipe with the bottom valve closure member being held in the open position by a float as a rule after a manual opening operation during the emptying process.
  • the lifting mechanism is usually arranged on the outside around the overflow pipe.
  • the object of the invention is to create a compact lifting device for a drain valve which can be actuated with a push button. This object is achieved in that the lifting device is arranged essentially in the overflow pipe and a locking device controlled by a float is provided to keep the bottom valve open during the emptying process.
  • the advantages that can be achieved with the invention exist especially in the space-saving arrangement of the lifting device, which is also an essentially tilting moment free and thus low-friction movement of the overflow pipe for the bottom valve actuation.
  • the is arranged essentially in the overflow pipe Lifting device also largely the permanent Removed exposure to rinse water, making an undesirable Calcification is largely excluded.
  • the training according to the invention enables Any rotation position of the waste set in the cistern. Also an adaptation to different cisterns can be cut to length by simply cutting the overflow pipe and Holding tube done together with the linkage.
  • a cistern 1 is shown in a schematic manner, the water inlet device not being shown.
  • a bottom valve 2 is formed, which reaches through the bottom of the cistern 1 with an outlet connection 20 and is tightly clamped with it.
  • the bottom valve 2 is formed with a collar 21 with a larger diameter, in which water inlet slots 210 are provided, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 6 of the drawing.
  • a hub 201 is formed on the inside of the outlet connector 20 on two opposite ribs 200.
  • a central bore 2010 is formed in the hub 201, which is radially expanded by two diametrically opposite slots 2011.
  • the hub 201 is used to hold a lifting device 4 for an overflow pipe 3 with the closure member 31 for the bottom valve 2.
  • the overflow pipe 3 as can be seen in particular from FIG. 5, carries a circumferential inner bead 30 for the abutment of claws 40 formed on the lifting device 4.
  • a flange-like closure member 31 is formed, on which on the On the back parallel to the central axis of the overflow pipe 3, a detent 310 arranged at a distance from the closure member 31 is formed.
  • An elastic sealing ring 32 is arranged below the closure member 31 and is held by a support ring 33 that can be screwed into the overflow pipe 3.
  • the lifting device 4 is essentially coaxial Overflow pipe 3 arranged, as it is in particular from the Figures 1, 2 and 4 can be seen.
  • the lifting device 4 is on the one hand with its support body 43 held in bore 2010 of hub 201, with additional through the introduction of two diametrically opposite formed on the support body 43 resilient Tongues 42 for locking in the axial direction Breakthroughs in 2012.
  • the Area with the resilient tongues 42 through the slots Completely guided through in 2011 and after a turn around about 45 ° the tongues 42 locked in the breakthroughs 2012.
  • the axially in the guide housing 410 displaceable pusher 41 is over a Linkage 411 with an axially displaceable in the support body 43 Tappet 45 connected.
  • the plunger 45 is pressed by a spring 450 in the direction of the linkage 411 and, as can be seen in particular in FIGS. 12 and 13, has stop lugs 452 projecting laterally and is guided in the tube 44 by a guide head 453.
  • the spring 450 is received on the one hand by a projection 454 on the tappet 45 and is supported on the other hand on the support body 43.
  • the guide head 453 has a trough 4530 on the face side for good reception of the linkage 411.
  • the plunger 45 has a transverse bore 451, in which a connecting rod-like tab 47 with a pin 472 with axial securing means can be detonated on both sides.
  • an eye bearing 470 with a radial slot 471 is formed.
  • the eye bearings 470 are each blown onto a pin 460 on the levers 46.
  • the levers 46 are designed with two arms and with their pivot bearings each pivotably sprinkled onto a pin 432, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 10 of the drawing.
  • an extension 401 of a claw 40, on each of which an eye bearing 470 with a radial slot 471 is formed is blown open on the two pins 460, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 1 and 18 to 19 is.
  • the two claws 40 are formed in one piece and connected via two approximately annular spring elements 402.
  • a leaf spring formation 473 is also provided on the connecting rod-like tabs 47 between the eye bearing 470 and the pin 472, from which impulsive actuations are safely absorbed.
  • the lifting device 4 can expediently be preassembled as a structural unit, as shown in FIG. 8. In this case, recesses 433 for the articulation of the tabs 47 and a recess 434 for receiving the spring elements 402 are provided in the support body 43.
  • a plate disk 48 is formed, which cooperates with the inner wall of the support ring 33, such that in the open position of the overflow pipe 3 the water inlet is shut off from below or throttled so much that the mechanics of the lifting device 4 from the rinse water is not applied.
  • the support body 43 has protective ribs 435 for protecting the lifting mechanism when installing or removing the overflow pipe 3.
  • a locking device 5 for the overflow pipe 3 is arranged on the collar 21 concentrically with the overflow pipe 3 in the open position of the bottom valve 2.
  • a base plate 51 is arranged with a guide bush 510 for the overflow pipe 3, which is surrounded on the outside by an annular jacket 52 of a cap.
  • An approximately semi-annular float 50 is arranged in the ring jacket 52 on the base plate 51 in bearings 511, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 22 to 24.
  • the float 50 is held pivotably in the bearings 511 with trunnions 501.
  • the float 50 carries a pawl 500, which is arranged and designed so that in the buoyancy position, as shown in FIGS.
  • the latch 310 holds in the open position of the bottom valve 2 and in the horizontal position releases the detent 310.
  • radially protruding ribs 34 are formed on the outer casing of the overflow pipe 3, which engage in corresponding recesses 514 on the guide bush 510 and thus ensure a rotationally fixed axial movement of the overflow pipe 3.
  • the cistern waste set described above works as follows: The cistern 1 is filled with water up to level 10 via a float-controlled valve (not shown). If a rinsing process is now to be initiated, the user presses the pusher 41 into the position shown in FIG. 2. As a result, the plunger 45 is inserted into the support body 43 against the force of the spring 450, so that the two tabs 47 now pivot the two levers 46 about the pin 432, as a result of which the extensions 401 with the claws 40 are axially displaced and thereby on the inner bead 30 come to the system and lift the overflow pipe 3 with the bottom valve closure member 31 from the bottom valve 2 and release the outlet port 20 for emptying the water stored in the cistern.
  • the latching lug 310 passes through an opening 512 in the bottom 51 to the pawl 500 of the float, where it engages against the buoyancy of the float 50.
  • the float 50 is returned to its resting position in an accelerated manner by side ribs formed below the locking lug 310, which abut on the underside of the pawl 500.
  • the detent 310 is held in this detent position until the water taken up between the ring jacket 52 and the guide bush 501 has flowed away, so that the float 50 is returned to the horizontal position and the pawl 500 releases the detent 310.
  • the bottom valve 2 is closed by gravity from the overflow pipe 3 with the closure member 31 again.
  • the water in the cistern 1 is brought back to the fill level 10 by the float valve (not shown in the drawing), so that a new flushing operation can be initiated by actuating the pusher 41.
  • Outlet slot 520 for the drainage in the annulus between the guide bush 510 and the ring jacket 52 collected Water provided.
  • By changing the cross section of the Outlet slot 520 may change the closing time of the bottom valve 2 can be reached so that the amount of flushing water to be dispensed or that in the cistern remaining amount of water can be determined during a rinsing process is.
