Definitions
- This invention concerns the field of sanitary equipment and in particular the sector covering the construction of devices such as shower or water jets, designed to distribute hot and/or cold water by a predetermined procedure, or with a standard jet, high turbulence jet, etc.
- limescale calcium carbonate
- the above flexibly deformable components are, at the present state of technology, made of rubber, a material which unfortunately firstly hardens after prolonged use, losing its elasticity and flexibility and, secondly tends to nonetheless favour the adherence of thin layers of limescale which become more difficult to remove the more the rubber used is, or becomes, rigid with little elasticity.
- the inventor of the present invention has replaced the rubber with a liquid silicon mixture, of a type known to engineers in the sector, which offers adherence resistance, elasticity and flexibility characteristics far superior to those of rubber or similar elastomers.
- the subject of this invention thus consists of a flexibly deformable component as described in the attached claim 1, characterised by the characteristic part of this same claim.
- the subject of this invention is in fact a flexibly deformable component which itself forms the terminal part of a distributor device, as explained in the attached claim 2.
- movable flexible rubber components 7i are arranged round the distribution holes 8i of a distributor device 9 of a shower jet type.
- Figure 2 shows this solution constructed for a water jet, which, as well known to engineers in the sector, operates as follows:
- Water from a mixer valve, not shown, is conducted by means of a pipe 6 to the body of the water jet 1 which, by means of the main supply pipe, carries the water to the lower hemispherical cup which has admission ports appropriately designed to form a helical profile to alter the direction of the water jet from axial movement on the supply channel to radial.
- This directionality of the water flow enables easy rotation of the turbine 3 which generates intense turbulence and acceleration of the water flow, and this is thrust towards the diffuser plate 4 which is profiled to regulate, by calibration of the outlet holes, the volume of water necessary for the limescale-prevention distributor unit 5 to determine the type of jet (degree of direction and level of spray).
- the shape of the turbine is designed to create a pulsed jet. (The limescale-prevention distributor unit is shown in clearer detail in Figure 3).
- the limescale-prevention distributor unit 5 is constructed entirely of a liquid silicon mixture, accumulations of limescale on the outside surfaces can be removed by simply rubbing; in addition, by exerting pressure in the appropriate direction on this, flexing can be achieved which bends the interior surfaces of the holes and vents through which the water passes with consequent detachment of the limescale adhering to them.
- the flexible component as per this invention can obviously be made in different forms from that described thus far and shown in the figures, depending on the design requirements and the type of distributor device to be produced; for example, in the case of a shower jet, the flexible component as per the invention can consist of the perforated distributor plate.
