Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Dosierung von Reinigungsmitteln, vorzugsweise zum Einbau in Spülkästen für Toilettenbecken, die einen Reinigungsmittelbehälter, einen Dosierlöffel und einen Schwimmer enthält, wobei der Dosierlöffel durch den Schwimmer über Hebel nach oben oder unten bewegt wird.The invention relates to a device for metering detergents, preferably for installation in cisterns for toilet bowls, the one Contains detergent containers, a measuring spoon and a float, taking the scoop through the float lever up or down is moved.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ist für den Einsatz in Spüllkästen aller Art geeignet.
Im Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, Spülsteine im Korb am Toilettenbeckenrand und/oder im Spülkasten einzuhängen. Dabei ist nachteilig, daß bei Spülsteinen im Toilettenbecken nicht das gesamte Spülwasser mit Reinigungsmittel gleichmäßig versetzt wird. Außerdem besteht die Gefahr, daß die Spülsteinkörbe, besonders im öffentlichen Bereich, in die Toilettenbecken fallen und zu Verstopfungen der Abflußsysteme fiihren.
Beim Einsatz von Spülsteinen im Spülkasten ist ferner nachteilig, daß diese sich ständig im Spülwasser befinden und daher relativ schnell verbraucht sind, da sie ständig Reinigungsmittel an das Spülwasser abgeben.
The device according to the invention is suitable for use in all types of cisterns.
It is known in the prior art to hang flushing stones in the basket on the edge of the toilet bowl and / or in the cistern. It is disadvantageous that in the case of sink stones in the toilet bowl, not all of the flushing water is evenly mixed with cleaning agent. There is also a risk that the sink baskets, particularly in the public area, fall into the toilet bowl and lead to blockages in the drainage systems.
When flushing stones are used in the cistern, it is also disadvantageous that they are constantly in the flushing water and are therefore used up relatively quickly, since they continuously release cleaning agents into the flushing water.

Nach US-PS 20 21 110 und nach US-PS 20 71 655 sind Vorrichtungen für Spülkästen bekannt, die einen Reinigungsmittelbehälter, einen Dosierlöffel und einen Schwimmer enthalten, wobei der Dosierlöffel durch den Schwimmer über Hebel nach oben oder unten bewegt wird. According to US-PS 20 21 110 and US-PS 20 71 655 are devices for Cisterns known that have a detergent container, a measuring spoon and contain a float, with the scoop passing through the float Lever is moved up or down.

Nachteilig ist bei diesen Vorrichtungen, daß das Spülmittel erst beim Entleeren des Spülkastens zugesetzt wird, so daß keine Reinigung des Spülkastens erfolgt. Ferner erfolgt die Führung des Spülmittels in einer offenen Rinne, wodurch das zugeführte Spülmittel in unterschiedlicher Menge dosiert wird.
Bei der in US-PS 5.718.006 angegebenen Anordnung soll durch zusätzliche angebrachte Entleerungsöffnungen eine konstante Dosierung der Spülmittelmenge erreicht werden. Hierzu ist jedoch ein zusätzlicher Aufwand erfoderlich.
A disadvantage of these devices is that the detergent is only added when the cistern is emptied, so that the cistern is not cleaned. Furthermore, the detergent is guided in an open channel, so that the detergent supplied is metered in different amounts.
In the arrangement specified in US Pat. No. 5,718,006, a constant metering of the amount of washing-up liquid is to be achieved by additional emptying openings provided. However, additional effort is required for this.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, die eine genaue und konstante Dosierung und gleichzeitig eine Reinigung des Spülkasten ermöglicht.The invention has for its object a device of the beginning Specify the type mentioned, the exact and constant dosage and allows cleaning of the cistern at the same time.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe mit den im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmalen gelöst.According to the invention the task with those specified in claim 1 Features resolved.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the device according to the invention are in the Subclaims specified.

Dabei kommt als Vorrichtung ein Reinigungsmittelbehälter mit Dosierlöffel und Schwimmer aus Kunststoff zur Anwendung.A detergent container with a measuring spoon and comes as a device Plastic float for use.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zeichnet sich durch den Vorteil aus, daß sie das Reinigungsmittel genau dosiert dem Spülwasser im Spülkasten zugibt und daß sowohl das Toilettenbecken als auch der Spülkasten gereinigt wird, da das Spülmittel durch eine zusätzlich angebrachte Hebellagerung bei der Aufwärtsbewegung des Schwimmers zugesetzt wird.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, daß diese Vorrichtung problemlos in fast alle Vorder- und Hinterwandspülkästen eingebaut werden kann. Vorteilhaft ist insbesondere die Auffüllung des Reinigungsmittelbehälters von außen, wobei ein spezieller Auffülltrichter zur Anwendung kommt.
The device according to the invention is characterized by the advantage that it adds the detergent precisely metered to the flushing water in the cistern and that both the toilet bowl and the cistern are cleaned, since the detergent is added by an additionally attached lever bearing during the upward movement of the float.
Another advantage is that this device can be easily installed in almost all front and rear wall cisterns. It is particularly advantageous to fill the detergent container from the outside, using a special filling funnel.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert: In der zugehörigen Zeichnung zeigen:

The invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of exemplary embodiments: In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1
the detergent container in the emptied cistern in a sectional view,
Figure 2
the detergent container in the filled cistern in a sectional view and
Figure 3
the hopper in a sectional view.

Figur 1 zeigt eine Schnittdarstellung, bei der der aufgefüllte Reinigungsmittelbehälter 2, der im Spülkasten 1 angeordnet ist, im entleerten Spülkasten 1 dargestellt ist. Die Vorrichtung besteht aus dem Reinigungsmittelbehälter 2, einem Hebelsystem 7,8, mit dem der Dosierlöffel 4 betätigt wird, und einem Schwimmer 3, der im Führungsrohr 11 auf und ab bewegt werden kann. Das am Reinigungsmittelbehälter 2 angebrachte Führungsrohr 11 dient außer zur Führung des Schwimmers 3 auch zur Sicherung der Bewegung des Schwimmers 3, indem es insbesondere bei einem schrägen Einbau des Reinigungsmittelbehälters das Hängenbleiben (Festklemmen) des Schwimmers 3 verhindert. Der Schwimmer 3 ist im dargestellten Fall in Form einer Glocke ausgebildet: Es ist jedoch auch möglich, geschlossene Schwimmer, beispielsweise eine Hohlkugel ohne Führungsrohr zu verwenden Beim Befüllen des Spülkasten 1 mit Spülwasser 12 steigt der Wasserspiegel im Führungsrohr 11 und der Schwimmer 3 bewegt sich nach oben. Dadurch wird der Hebel 8 um dessen am Spülmittelbehälter 2 angebrachte Lagerung geschwenkt. Der Hebel 7 bewegt sich dabei nach unten und schwenkt den Dosierlöffel 4 aus dem Spülmittelbehäter 2 heraus, so daß dessen Inhalt in das Spülwasser 12 gekippt wird. Durch die zweifache Hebelanordnung wird erreicht, daß bei der Aufwärtsbewegung des Schwimmers 3 das Spülmittel in das Spülwasser 12 gekippt wird und sich deshalb stets Spülmittel im Spülwasser befindet.Figure 1 shows a sectional view, in which the filled Detergent container 2, which is arranged in the cistern 1 in the emptied Cistern 1 is shown. The device consists of the Detergent container 2, a lever system 7,8, with which the measuring spoon 4 is operated, and a float 3, which in the guide tube 11 up and down can be moved. The one attached to the detergent container 2 In addition to guiding the float 3, the guide tube 11 also serves Securing the movement of the float 3, in particular at one sloping installation of the detergent container (Clamping) of float 3 prevented. The float 3 is in the case shown in the form of a bell: it is also possible, closed float, for example a hollow ball without a guide tube use When filling the cistern 1 with rinsing water 12 the rises Water level in the guide tube 11 and the float 3 moves to above. As a result, the lever 8 is moved around the detergent container 2 attached storage pivoted. The lever 7 moves downwards and swings the measuring spoon 4 out of the detergent dispenser 2 so that the content of which is tipped into the rinse water 12. By the double Lever arrangement is achieved that in the upward movement of the Float 3 the detergent is tipped into the rinse water 12 and itself therefore there is always detergent in the rinse water.

Der Reinigungsmittelbehälter 2 kann am Spülkasten 1 rechts oder links, jedoch immer gegenüber dem Einlaufventil angebracht werden. Er wird in einer Bohrung am oberen Rand des Spülkasten 1 am Einfüllstutzen 16 eingefügt und von außen mit der Mutter 14 befestigt. Zum Auffüllen des Reinigungsmittels 10 ist der in Figur 3 gezeigte Auffülltrichter 13 auf den Einfiillstutzen 16 aufgeschraubt. Der Auffülltrichter 13 befindet sich im montiertem Zustand immer auf dem Einfüllstutzen 16 und verhindert, daß das Reinigungsmittel nach außen läuft Im Auffülltrichter 13 ist ein Dichtring 15 angebracht.
Durch die geringen Abmessungen des Reinigungsmittelbehälters 2 kann dieser in fast alle Vorderwandspülkästen und mit geänderter Halterung sowie Fülleinrichtung auch in fast alle Hinterwandspülkästen eingebaut werden. Bei Hinterwandspülkästen ist es zum Nachfüllen von Spülmittel lediglich erforderlich, die vor dem Kasten angebrachte Drückerblende abzunehmen.
The detergent container 2 can be attached to the cistern 1 on the right or left, but always opposite the inlet valve. It is inserted into a hole in the upper edge of the cistern 1 on the filler neck 16 and fastened with the nut 14 from the outside. To fill the cleaning agent 10, the filling funnel 13 shown in FIG. 3 is screwed onto the filler neck 16. The filling funnel 13 is always in the assembled state on the filler neck 16 and prevents the cleaning agent from running outwards. A sealing ring 15 is attached in the filling funnel 13.
Due to the small dimensions of the detergent container 2, it can be installed in almost all front wall cisterns and with a modified holder and filling device also in almost all rear wall cisterns. In the case of rear wall cisterns, all that is required to refill detergent is to remove the pusher cover in front of the cistern.

Figur 2 zeigt in einer Schnittdarstellung den mit Reinigungsmittel 10 aufgefüllten Reinigungsmittelbehälter 2 im gefüllten Spülkasten 1. Der Schwimmer 3 befindet sich in der oberen Endstellung und somit auch der Dosierlöffel 4. In dieser Stellung fließt das Reinigungsmittel 10 aus dem leicht geneigtem Dosierlöffel 4 durch die dünne Ausflußbohrung 6 in das im Spülkasten 1 stehende Spülwasser 12. Durch die sehr dünne Ausführung der Ausflußbohrung 6 ist das Flüssigkeitvolumen im Stiel im Vergleich zum Volumen der Dosierkammer 5 klein. Dadurch wird gewährleistet, daß auch bei unterschiedlichem Füllstand des Reinigungsmittels im Behälter, was einen unterschiedlichem Füllstand in der Ausflußbohrung 6 bedingt, nur geringe Schwankungen der Dosiermenge auftreten. In Versuchen konnte nachgewiesen werden, daß bei maximalen Füllstand im Behälter, durch ein relativ langsames Anheben des Dosierlöffels 4 und durch die daraus folgende Schrägstellung der Dosierkammer, ein Teil des Reinigungsmittels aus dem Auslauf über den Rand der Dosierkammer 5 in den Behälter zurück fließt, was bei minimalen Füllstand des Reinigungsmittels in den noch leeren Auslauf läuft. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung erreicht somit auf einfache Weise, daß sich im Spülkasten 1 stets Reinigungsmittel befinden und daß dem Spüllkasten 1 immer eine konstante Menge Reinigungsmittel zugesetzt wird.FIG. 2 shows the cleaning agent 10 in a sectional view filled detergent container 2 in the filled cistern 1. The Float 3 is in the upper end position and thus also the Measuring spoon 4. In this position, the cleaning agent 10 flows out of the inclined measuring spoon 4 through the thin spout 6 in the Cistern 1 standing rinsing water 12. Due to the very thin design of the Outflow bore 6 is the volume of liquid in the stem compared to Volume of the metering chamber 5 small. This ensures that even at different levels of detergent in the container, which one different level in the outflow bore 6 conditional, only small Fluctuations in the dosage amount occur. In experiments it was proven be that at maximum level in the container, by a relatively slow Lifting the dosing spoon 4 and the resulting inclination of the Dosing chamber, part of the detergent from the outlet over the edge the metering chamber 5 flows back into the container, which is at a minimal fill level of the detergent runs into the empty spout. The invention The device thus achieves in a simple manner that there is always in the cistern 1 Detergent and that the cistern 1 is always a constant Amount of detergent is added.

Die Figur 3 zeigt den Auffülltrichter 13 in Schnittdarstellung. Der Auffülltrichter 13 besitzt ein Innengewinde 17, welches der Größe des Außengewindes am Einfiillstutzen 16 entspricht. Dieser Auffülltrichter 13 wird auf den Einfüllstutzen 16 des Reinigungsmittelbehälters 2, außerhalb des Spülkastens 1, aufgeschraubt. Das Erreichen der maximalen Füllmenge im Reinigungsmittelbehälter 2 ist am Auffülltrichter 13 durch eine dort angebrachte Markierung ersichtlich.Figure 3 shows the hopper 13 in a sectional view. The Filling funnel 13 has an internal thread 17, which is the size of the External thread on the filler neck 16 corresponds. This hopper 13 will on the filler neck 16 of the detergent container 2, outside the Cistern 1, screwed on. Reaching the maximum filling quantity in the Detergent container 2 is on the hopper 13 through one there attached marking visible.

Für die Anwendung in Hinterwandspülkästen besteht die Möglichkeit mit Hilfe eines Füllschlauches das Reinigungsmittel in den Behälter nachzufüllen. Dazu ist es lediglich erforderlich, die vor dem Kasten angebrachte Drückerblende zu entfernen, damit der Schraubverschluß, der sich zwischen der Drückerblendenbefestigungsplatte und der Spülkastenabdeckung befindet.
Zum Befestigen des Behälters in Hinterwandspülkästen können unterschiedliche Befestigungslaschen benutzt werden, die sich, je nach Spülkastentyp, an verschiedenen Stellen am Behälterrand befinden.
For use in rear wall cisterns, it is possible to refill the detergent into the container using a filling hose. All that is required is to remove the pusher cover in front of the box so that the screw cap that is located between the pusher plate mounting plate and the cistern cover.
Different fastening tabs can be used to fasten the tank in rear wall cisterns, which, depending on the cistern type, are located at different locations on the tank rim.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sieht vor, die Aufhängung des Schwimmers höhenverstellbar anzuordnen, damit bei der Benutzung der Spülung gewählt werden kann, ob das Reinigungsmittel nur bei großen oder auch bei kleinen Spülmengen zugeführt werden soll. An advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention provides to arrange the suspension of the float so that it is height adjustable so that the Use of the rinse can be selected whether the cleaning agent is only at large or small flushing quantities should be supplied.
