Definitions

  • the invention relates to a jet regulator with a jet splitting device and with a jet regulating device which is arranged at a distance downstream in the flow direction and forms the outlet-side end face of the jet regulator and which has a multiplicity of flow holes.
  • a jet regulator of the type mentioned at the outset which has a jet splitting device designed as a perforated plate in its jet regulator housing.
  • This jet splitting device is one on the outlet side
  • the inflowing water is divided into individual water jets in the jet splitting device, which are then bundled again in the jet regulating device to form a homogeneous, pearl-soft water jet.
  • the jet regulating device of the known jet regulator is formed from a plurality of wire screens which are spaced slightly apart and which have a different mesh size and whose screen openings serve as through-flow holes.
  • a jet regulator is already known from US Pat. No. 2,744,738 A, which has a cup-shaped jet splitting device with a plurality of flow holes on the circumference or on the face.
  • the jet splitting device is followed at a distance by a jet regulating device in the direction of flow, which consists of at least one metal sleeve with a corrugated cross-section, the sleeve opening of which is oriented in the direction of flow.
  • Downtown an outer metal sleeve can also be arranged a further inner metal sleeve, which also has a star-shaped corrugated cross section.
  • the water jet flowing in the water fitting to the jet regulator is divided into several individual jets in the jet separation device, which are then mixed with the inflowing air in the guide channels formed between the outer mouthpiece and the metal sleeves.
  • a mixing valve is already known from GB 2 104 625 A, in which the hot water pipe and the cold water pipe end in a common mouthpiece.
  • the mouthpiece has a plurality of flow holes which are arranged essentially on circular paths and each have a cross-section in the form of a segment of a circle. While the flow holes arranged on the inner circular path are assigned to the hot water line, for example, the cold water flows through the flow holes arranged on the outer circular path. Due to the separate cold and hot water supply to the mouthpiece, undesirable cross flows are avoided even with fluctuations in water pressure. In contrast, the generation of a pearly-soft water jet in the likewise comparatively high mouthpiece of the known mixing valve is not readily possible.
  • a jet regulator is already known from EP 0 496 033 A, the jet splitting device of which consists of two perforated plates spaced apart in the direction of flow.
  • the outlet-side end face of this known jet regulator forms three jet regulating screens which serve as jet regulating devices.
  • the manufacturing costs, which are already high with the assembly of the jet regulating screens, are further increased by assembling and aligning the jet disassembly device consisting of the two perforated plates.
  • the jet regulator known from EP 0 496 033 A has a front screen, as is also known from DE 43 33 549 A in a similar form.
  • Such front screens serve only as protective screens to protect the flow openings in the jet splitting device and the jet regulating device of the jet regulator following in the flow direction against clogging with dirt particles.
  • such attachment screens are not assigned any jet-shaping functions.
  • the jet regulating device has a perforated plate on the outlet side, which has at least in at least one portion of a perforated area of its plate plane oriented transversely to the flow direction, several flow holes, the adjacent flow holes separating and guide walls each extending approximately in the direction of flow have a wall thickness which is a fraction of the clear corner dimension of a flow hole delimited by the guide walls and that the ratio h: D between the height h of the guide walls and the total diameter D of the jet regulating device is less than 1.
  • the water flowing to the jet regulator according to the invention is divided into individual jets in its jet splitting device, which are then combined, if necessary after air mixing, in the jet regulating device to form a homogeneous, soft overall jet.
  • This jet regulating device of the jet regulator according to the invention has a perforated plate on the outlet side, which has a plurality of flow holes at least in a partial area of its plate plane designed as a perforated field. These flow holes are delimited by guide walls, each of which has a wall thickness which is a fraction of the clear hole diameter of a flow hole delimited by the guide walls.
  • the flow holes in the jet regulating device of the jet regulator according to the invention with their guide walls have a greater longitudinal extent, so that the individual water jets can be shaped better due to the longer acting adhesive forces.
  • the guide walls provided in the perforated plate of the jet regulating device are not higher than the overall diameter of the jet regulating device, which promotes the formation of a pearly-soft overall jet. Since the flow holes are only separated from one another by the thin guide walls and are in close contact with one another, the individual jets unite after passing through the jet regulating device to form a bubbly-soft, homogeneous and only slightly scattering overall jet.
  • the perforated plate of this jet regulating device can be produced inexpensively, for example as an injection molded or extruded part made of plastic or any other suitable material. Due to its homogeneous structure, the perforated plate of the jet regulator according to the invention is less prone to calcification or soiling due to the ingredients carried in the water, which significantly improves the functional reliability of the jet regulator according to the invention.
  • the ratio h: D between the height h of the guide walls and the total diameter D of the jet regulating device is less than 3:21.
  • the perforated plate has as many flow openings as possible.
  • an embodiment according to the invention provides that the flow holes of the perforated plate have a round, rounded, segment-like or angular flow cross-section.
  • the flow holes have a hexagonal flow cross-section at least in the center area of the perforated plate and that the perforated plate is preferably formed essentially over its entire plate level as a honeycomb cell-like perforated field.
  • a perforated plate made of hexagonal flow-through holes and shaped like a honeycomb cell, is able to shape the water jet particularly well, without at the same time opposing it with a disturbing flow resistance.
  • the perforated plate prefferably has flow segment-shaped flow holes in an outer ring zone, these outer ring zone bounded by a honeycomb-like perforated field with hexagonal flow holes in cross section.
  • the confluence of the individual jets emerging from the jet regulating device to form a homogeneous overall jet is significantly favored if the outlet-side edges of the guide walls delimiting the throughflow holes are rounded.
  • a constriction of the housing for beam bundling is preferably provided at the flow exit end of the jet regulator housing behind the jet regulating device.

  • the jet regulating device has one jet regulating sieve or several jet regulating sieves which are connected upstream of the perforated plate on the inflow side.
  • the perforated plate is an integral part of a jet regulator housing and if the perforated plate is preferably connected in one piece to the jet regulator housing. In such an embodiment, in which the perforated plate is connected in particular in one piece to the jet regulator housing, it is not necessary to insert a separate installation part.
