At the outer end of the sleeve, a retaining tongue is attached runs parallel to the footprint of the sanitary fitting. This tap can put on from above and already provisionally secured. However, the fitter has to work with a little skill.

Weiterhin bekannt ist eine Sanitärarmatur (DE 2206464), bei der die Standfläche des Armaturenkörpers einen Zentrieransatz aufweist. Durch diesen Zentrieransatz ist eine hohle Schraube hindurch geführt, die auf der Unterseite des Waschtischs in eine Spannscheibe eingeschraubt werden kann. Der Durchmesser der Spannscheibe ist größer als der Durchmesser der Öffnung, durch die die Schraube hindurch greift. Durch die hohle Schraube ist eine Betätigungsstange für ein Ventil hindurch geführt. Eine provisorische Festlegung dieser Sanitärarmatur von oben her ist nicht möglich.Also known is a sanitary fitting (DE 2206464) in which the Footprint of the valve body has a centering approach. By a hollow screw is passed through this centering projection, which on the underside of the washbasin screwed into a clamping washer can be. The diameter of the spring washer is larger than that Diameter of the opening through which the screw reaches. By the hollow screw is an operating rod for a valve guided. A provisional determination of this sanitary fitting from above forth is not possible.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Sanitärarmatur so zu verbessern, dass sie sich leichter montieren lässt.The invention has for its object a sanitary fitting to improve so that it is easier to assemble.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung eine Sanitärarmatur mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und ein Halteelement mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 11 vor. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche, deren Wortlaut ebenso wie der Wortlaut der Zusammenfassung durch Bezugnahme zum Inhalt der Beschreibung gemacht wird.To achieve this object, the invention proposes a sanitary fitting with the features of claim 1 and a holding element with the features of claim 11 before. further developments the invention are the subject of the dependent claims, their wording as well as the wording of the summary is made by reference to the content of the description.

Das Halteelement wird bei der Herstellung der Armatur beispielsweise von unten her in den Armaturenkörper eingesetzt und befestigt. Das Halteelement lässt einen Durchgang für eine Zuleitung frei. Das Halteelement wird so angebracht, dass die Haltezunge auf der dem Schwerpunkt abgewandten Seite der Armatur liegt, im Normalfall auf der der Auslaufschnauze abgewandten Seite. Beim Aufsetzen der Armatur gelangt die Haltezunge durch die Öffnung der Befestigungsfläche hindurch und kann ein Verkippen der Armatur verhindern, das auftreten könnte, wenn der Schwerpunkt der Armatur außerhalb der Standfläche liegt. Je nach Festigkeit und Oberflächenbeschaffenheit der Haltezunge kann ein gerader Verlauf ausreichen, um das erwähnte Kippen zu verhindern. Die Haltezunge wird von einem Umfangsabschnitt einer Schürze gebildet, die über einen Teil des Umfangs oder den ganzen Umfang umläuft. Hier wird das Kippen durch entsprechende Dimensionierung dadurch verhindert, dass diese Schürze sich nur teilweise verformt.The holding element is used for example in the manufacture of the fitting inserted from below into the valve body and attached. The holding element leaves a passage for one supply line free. The holding element is attached so that the retaining tongue on the side facing away from the center of gravity the valve is usually on the outlet spout opposite side. When the fitting is put on, the Retaining tongue through the opening of the mounting surface and can prevent the fitting from tipping over could, if the focal point of the valve outside the Stand area is. Depending on the strength and surface quality the holding tongue may be straight, to prevent the aforementioned tipping. The Retaining tongue is formed by a peripheral portion of an apron, covering part or all of the scope circulates. Here is the tilting by appropriate dimensioning this prevents this apron from just itself partially deformed.

Die Befestigung an der Armatur kann beispielsweise dadurch geschehen, dass ein strammer Sitz längs einer Fläche, beispielsweise einer umlaufenden Fläche, vorgesehen wird. Dann wird das Halteteil von unten unter Kraftaufwand eingeschoben.The attachment to the valve can be done for example happen that a tight fit along a surface, for example a circumferential surface is provided. Then the holding part is pushed in from below using force.

Eine weitere Möglichkeit besteht darin, das Halteteil durch Einschnappen festzulegen. Hier wird also eine Verformung und ein Hinterschnitt verwendet, um den Schnappvorgang durchzuführen.Another way is through the holding part Snap into place. So here is a deformation and an undercut is used to perform the snap action.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass an der Platte auf der aus der Armatur heraus gerichteten Seite ein Zentrieransatz angebracht wird, der kleiner ist als die üblichen Größen von Öffnungen in dem Waschtisch oder der sonstigen Fläche, an der die Armatur angebracht werden soll. Der Zentrieransatz braucht nur um einige Millimeter vorzuspringen. Er ermöglicht es dem Installateur, ohne genau hinzusehen die Armatur gegenüber der Öffnung auszurichten.In a development of the invention it can be provided that the plate on the side facing out of the fitting a centering lug is attached that is smaller than that usual sizes of openings in the vanity or the other area to which the valve is to be attached. The centering projection only needs to protrude a few millimeters. It enables the installer without being precise to align the valve with the opening.

Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Haltezunge an ihrer nach außen gerichteten Seite einen Vorsprung aufweist, der eine der Armatur zugewandte Halteschulter bildet. Bei einem Verkippen gelangt die Halteschulter zur Anlage an der Unterseite der Platte, so dass ein weiteres Kippen verhindert wird.In particular, it can be provided that the retaining tongue has a projection on its outward side, which forms a holding shoulder facing the fitting. at tilting, the holding shoulder comes to rest on the Underside of the plate so that it does not tip over becomes.

Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Haltevorsprung im Bereich des Endes der Haltezunge angeordnet ist.In particular, it can be provided that the holding projection in the Area of the end of the retaining tongue is arranged.

Es kann erfindungsgemäß ebenfalls vorgesehen sein, dass die Haltezunge mehrere Vorsprünge aufweist, deren Länge mit zunehmendem Abstand des Vorsprungs von dem Plattenelement zunimmt. Damit kann eine Anpassung an unterschiedliche Dicken der Platten erfolgen. Es kann sich auch um eine abgestufte Form der Außenseite der Haltezunge handeln.It can also be provided according to the invention that the Retaining tongue has several projections, the length of which increasing distance of the projection from the plate element increases. This allows adaptation to different thicknesses of the plates. It can also be a tiered Act the shape of the outside of the retaining tongue.

Eine weitere von der Erfindung vorgeschlagene Möglichkeit besteht darin, an der Platte nebeneinander mehrere Haltezungen anzubringen.Another possibility proposed by the invention consists of several holding tongues next to each other on the plate to install.

Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Haltezungen unterschiedliche Längen aufweisen, beispielsweise drei Haltezungen mit drei verschiedenen Längen.It can be provided that the holding tongues are different Have lengths, for example three holding tongues three different lengths.

Ebenfalls möglich ist es, bei mehreren Haltezungen die Vorsprünge mit unterschiedlichem Abstand von der Standfläche anzuordnen.It is also possible to use several holding tongues Projections with different distances from the stand area to arrange.

An einem Waschtisch 1 soll eine Armatur 2 befestigt werden. Die Armatur 2 weist eine Standfläche 3 auf, die auf der Oberfläche 4 des Waschtischs 1 aufliegen soll. Alle Zuleitungen und Befestigungen erfolgen durch ein Loch 5 in dem Waschtisch 1. Die Armatur 2 ist so dimensioniert, dass das Loch 5 bei montierter Armatur nicht sichtbar ist.A fitting 2 is to be attached to a washstand 1. The fitting 2 has a footprint 3, which on the Surface 4 of the wash basin 1 should rest. All supply lines and attachments are made through a hole 5 in the Basin 1. The fitting 2 is dimensioned so that the Hole 5 is not visible when the valve is installed.

Im Bereich der Standfläche ist an der Armatur das Halteelement 6 befestigt, beispielsweise indem es in eine dort gebildete Öffnung eingeschoben wird. Das Halteelement 6 weist im dargestellten Beispiel eine Öffnung 7 für eine Betätigungsstange 8 auf, mit der beispielsweise ein Abfluss geöffnet oder geschlossen werden kann. Das Halteelement 6 weist eine weitere Öffnung zum Durchstecken einer Gewindestange 9 auf, die in ein Teil der Sanitärarmatur 2 eingeschraubt und von der Unterseite her mit einer Mutter versehen wird. Die Gewindestange 9 bildet die eigentliche Befestigung der Sanitärarmatur. Das Halteelement 6 hat seine Funktion in erster Linie während der Befestigung der Armatur 2.The holding element is on the fitting in the area of the stand 6 attached, for example by putting it in there formed opening is inserted. The holding element 6 has in the example shown, an opening 7 for an actuating rod 8 with which, for example, a drain is opened or can be closed. The holding element 6 has another opening for pushing through a threaded rod 9 on, which is screwed into part of the sanitary fitting 2 and is provided with a nut from the bottom. The Threaded rod 9 forms the actual attachment of the Sanitary fitting. The holding element 6 has its function in primarily during the fitting of the valve 2.

Bei der Darstellung der Fig. 1 ist die Auslaufschnauze rechts angeordnet. Das Halteelement 6 weist auf der der Auslaufschnauze abgewandten Seite eine Haltezunge 10 auf, die in der montierten Position durch die öffnung 5 des Waschtischs 1 hindurchgreift. Im Bereich ihres Endes enthält die Haltezunge 10 einen Vorsprung 11, der auf seiner der Armatur 2 zugewandten Seite eine Halteschulter 12 bildet. Wenn die Armatur noch nicht befestigt ist, kann sie nur so weit nach rechts kippen, bis die Halteschulter 12 an der Unterseite des Waschtischs 1 zur Anlage kommt.1, the outlet spout is on the right arranged. The holding element 6 has on the outlet spout facing away from a retaining tongue 10, which in the assembled position through the opening 5 of the washbasin 1 round picks. The tongue contains in the area of its end 10 a projection 11 facing the armature 2 on it Side forms a retaining shoulder 12. If the valve is still not attached, it can only tilt to the right, until the holding shoulder 12 on the underside of the washbasin 1 comes to the plant.

Fig. 2 zeigt nun eine Ansicht des Halteelements, das eine etwa ebene Platte 13 enthält. Die Platte weist einen kreisförmigen Außenumfang auf, entsprechend der Innenform der Sanitärarmatur. In der Platte sind zwei große Öffnungen 14 für die Zuleitungen gebildet, eine bereits erwähnte Öffnung 7 zum Durchstecken eines Betätigungselements für einen Abfluss, sowie zwei weitere Öffnungen 15, von denen die eine für das Durchstecken der Gewindestange 9 bestimmt ist.Fig. 2 now shows a view of the holding element, the one contains approximately flat plate 13. The plate has a circular Outer circumference, according to the inner shape of the Sanitary fitting. There are two large openings 14 in the plate formed for the supply lines, an opening 7 already mentioned for pushing through an actuating element for a drain, and two further openings 15, one of which is for the Pushing the threaded rod 9 is determined.

Fig. 3 zeigt in einem Querschnitt durch das Halteelement 6, dass an der Platte 13 ein nach unten gerichteter Zentrieransatz 16 ausgebildet ist. Unter der Unterseite ist diejenige Seite des Halteteils 6 zu verstehen, die von der Armatur 2 abgewandt ist. Der Zentrieransatz 16 ist so ausgebildet, dass er dann, wenn das Halteteil 6 in die Armatur 2 eingesetzt ist, siehe Fig. 1, gegenüber der Standfläche 3 der Armatur 2 herausragt. Er kann also dazu dienen, eine Zentrierung der Armatur vor ihrer Befestigung durchzuführen. 3 shows a cross section through the holding element 6, that on the plate 13 a downward centering approach 16 is formed. Under the bottom is the one To understand side of the holding part 6, the armature 2nd is turned away. The centering projection 16 is designed such that he then when the holding part 6 is inserted into the armature 2 is, see Fig. 1, opposite the footprint 3 of the fitting 2nd protrudes. So it can serve to center the Fitting to perform before fitting.

An der Unterseite der Platte 13 sind im dargestellten Beispiel drei Haltezungen 10 angeformt, die jeweils an ihrem unteren Ende den erwähnten Vorsprung 11 aufweisen. Alle drei Haltezungen sind im Bereich der in Fig. 2 und 3 linken Seite des Halteelements 6 angeordnet, also etwa im Bereich gegenüber der Stelle, wo die Armatur 2 ihren Schwerpunkt hat. Die drei Haltezungen sind benachbart zueinander angeordnet, aber nicht miteinander verbunden. Je nach Dicke der Platte, an der die Armatur 2 befestigt werden soll, kann eine der drei Haltezungen 10 die Sicherung gegen Verkippen durchführen. Wenn es die längste Haltezunge 10 ist, können die beiden anderen nach innen verformt bleiben. Es ist selbstverständlich auch möglich, dass der Installateur die ihn störenden Haltezungen entfernt.At the bottom of the plate 13 are in the example shown three retaining tongues 10 formed, each on her lower end have the aforementioned projection 11. All three Retaining tongues are in the area of the left side in FIGS. 2 and 3 of the holding element 6 arranged, that is approximately in the area opposite the place where the armature 2 has its focus. The three holding tongues are arranged adjacent to each other, however not connected. Depending on the thickness of the plate on which the valve 2 is to be attached, one of the three Holding tabs 10 secure against tilting. If it is the longest retaining tongue 10, the two can others remain deformed inwards. It is, of course, also possible for the installer to disrupt the Retaining tabs removed.

Fig. 5 zeigt einen Schnitt durch eine zweite Ausführungsform. Das Halteelement 6 ist wieder plattenähnlich ausgebildet und weist Öffnungen 15 für den Durchgang von Leitungen o. dgl. auf. Konzentrisch zu seinem kreisrunden Rand ist ein Ansatz angebracht, der einen ähnlichen Durchmesser aufweist wie der Zentrieransatz 16 der Ausführungsform nach Fig. 3. Jedoch ist der Ansatz in axialer Richtung länger ausgebildet und bildet eine umlaufende Schürze 17. Die Schürze 17 ist zylindrisch ausgebildet. Sie enthält eine axiale Länge, die etwa der von der Länge her mittleren Haltezunge 10 in Fig. 4 entspricht. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind keine Vorsprünge 11 an der Außenseite der Schürze 17 angeformt. Das Verkippen wird dadurch behindert, dass bei einer Schrägstellung die gesamte Schürze verformt werden müsste und dieser Verformung einen Widerstand entgegensetzt. Bei entsprechender Härte erfolgt einfach eine gewisse Schrägstellung der Schürze 17, ohne dass eine echte Verformung auftritt. Fig. 5 shows a section through a second embodiment. The holding element 6 is again plate-like and has openings 15 for the passage of lines or the like. on. One approach is concentric with its circular rim attached, which has a similar diameter as that Centering lug 16 of the embodiment of Fig. 3. However the approach is longer and formed in the axial direction a circumferential apron 17. The apron 17 is cylindrical educated. It has an axial length that is approximately that of corresponds to the length of the middle retaining tongue 10 in FIG. 4. In the exemplary embodiment shown there are no projections 11 molded onto the outside of the apron 17. The tilting is hindered by the fact that the entire apron would have to be deformed and this deformation opposed a resistance. With appropriate hardness there is simply a certain inclination of the apron 17, without any real deformation occurring.

Es kann ausreichen, wenn die Schürze 17 sich beispielsweise nur über den halben Umfang erstreckt, wobei die Bogenlänge der Schürze 17 über den Abstand von der Armatur auch unterschiedlich groß sein kann.It may be sufficient if the apron 17 is, for example only extends over half the circumference, the arc length the apron 17 also varies over the distance from the fitting can be great.

Bei der Ausführungsform nach Fig. 5 ist es möglich, durch entsprechende Dimensionierung auch dafür zu sorgen, dass die Schürze 17 relativ kurz sein kann, da sie nicht unbedingt durch die Platte ganz hindurchgreifen muss.In the embodiment according to FIG. 5, it is possible to appropriate dimensioning also to ensure that the Apron 17 can be relatively short as it is not essential must reach all the way through the plate.
