Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur für Badewannen und tiefe Duschwannen, insbesondere für freistehende Badewannen mit einer im Bereich des Überlaufs drehbar gelagerten Rosette zur Betätigung eines Ventilkegels eines Ablaufgehäuses mittels eines im Ablaufgehäuse schwenkbar gelagerten, zweiarmig ausgebildeten Hebels, dessen einer Hebelarm durch ein innerhalb des Überlaufrohres sich erstreckendes Zugmittel mit einem im Überlaufgehäuse gelagerten, mittels der Rosette betätigbaren Exzenter verbunden ist.The invention relates to a waste and overflow set for bathtubs and deep shower trays, especially for free-standing baths with a rotatably mounted in the overflow rosette for actuating a valve cone of a drain housing by means of a pivotally mounted in the drain housing, two-armed lever whose one lever arm by a within the overflow pipe extending traction means is connected to a mounted in the overflow housing, actuated by means of the rosette eccentric.

Es sind Ab- und Überlaufgarnituren bekannt, bei denen als Getriebemittel zwischen der Rosette und dem im Ablaufgehäuse schwenkbar gelagerten Hebel zum Verstellen des Ventilkegels ein Bowdenzug verwendet wird, der außerhalb des Überlaufrohres angeordnet wird. Durch die Antriebs- und Abtriebsmittel des Bowdenzuges, die einerseits im Überlaufgehäuse und andererseits im Ablaufgehäuse gelagert werden müssen, ergibt sich eine aufwendige Konstruktion dieser Teile. Ferner ist der optische Eindruck bei sichtbarem Bowdenzug vor allem bei freistehenden Badewannen sehr störend.There are waste and overflow sets are known in which a Bowden cable is used as the transmission means between the rosette and the pivotally mounted in the drain housing lever for adjusting the valve cone, which is arranged outside of the overflow pipe. By the drive and output means of the Bowden cable, which must be stored on the one hand in the overflow housing and on the other hand in the drain body, results in a complex construction of these parts. Furthermore, the visual impression with visible Bowden cable is very disturbing, especially with freestanding bathtubs.

Die US-A-1,807,117 zeigt eine Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur für Badewannen mit einem in einem Ablaufgehäuse schwenkbar gelagerten, zweiarmig ausgebildeten Hebel, dessen einer Hebelarm durch eine innerhalb eines Überlaufrohres verlaufende Kette mit einem mittels eines Drehgriffes betätigbaren Kurbelbolzen verbunden ist. Der Kurbelbolzen ist in dem Überlaufgehäuse einseitig gelagert. Diese Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur erscheint hinsichtlich ihrer Montage und Funktionssicherheit verbesserungsbedürftig.US-A-1,807,117 shows a waste and overflow set for bathtubs with a pivotally mounted in a drain housing, two-armed lever whose one lever arm is connected by a running within an overflow pipe chain with an actuatable by means of a rotary handle crank pin. The crank pin is mounted on one side in the overflow housing. This waste and overflow set appears to be in need of improvement in terms of their installation and reliability.

Die EP-A-0 392 280 zeigt eine ähnliche Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur mit einem durch eine Überlauföffnung der Badewanne hindurchgeführten Drehbolzen, dem eine als Halteelement wirkende Blattfeder zugeordnet ist, die mittels eines Solenoids von dem Drehbolzen wegbewegt werden kann. Diese bekannte Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur weist einen relativ komplexen Aufbau auf, der entsprechend hohe Material- und Montagekosten mit sich bringt.EP-A-0 392 280 shows a similar waste and overflow fitting with a guided through an overflow opening of the bathtub pivot pin, which is associated with a acting as a holding element leaf spring, which can be moved away by means of a solenoid from the pivot pin. This known waste and overflow fitting has a relatively complex structure, which brings with it correspondingly high material and assembly costs.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die einen einfachen Aufbau aufweist, sich leicht montieren lässt und eine zuverlässige Funktion gewährleistet.The present invention has for its object to provide a waste and overflow set of the type mentioned, which has a simple structure, can be easily assembled and ensures reliable operation.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a waste and overflow fitting with the features of claim 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass ihr Exzenter U-förmig ausgebildet ist und sich aus zwei Schenkeln und einer mit den Schenkeln verbundenen Exzenterwelle zusammensetzt, wobei der eine Schenkel mittels der Rosette verschwenkbar und der andere Schenkel im Überlaufgehäuse drehbar gelagert ist, und wobei an der Exzenterwelle eine Exzenterlasche befestigt ist.The waste and overflow set according to the invention is characterized in that its eccentric is U-shaped and composed of two legs and an eccentric shaft connected to the legs, wherein the one leg by means of the rosette and pivotable the other leg is rotatably mounted in the overflow housing, and wherein on the eccentric shaft an eccentric tab is attached.

Das Zugmittel kann als Seil, Litze oder als Kette ausgebildet sein.The traction means may be formed as a rope, strand or as a chain.

Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Ab- und Überlaufarmatur ist an mindestens einem Ende des Zugmittels oder innerhalb des Zugmittels eine Ausgleichfeder vorgesehen, die etwaige Belastungen des Ventilkegels in seiner Öffnungsstellung aufnehmen kann.In an advantageous embodiment of the drain and overflow fitting a compensating spring is provided at least one end of the traction means or within the traction means, which can accommodate any loads on the valve cone in its open position.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further features of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemäßen Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur ist in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und wird im folgenden beschrieben. Es zeigen:

die Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur im Vertikalschnitt,
Fig. 2 und 3
das Überlaufgehäuse mit dem darin angeordneten Exzenter im Schnitt und zwar zeigt die Fig. 2 den Exzenter in der Ausgangsstellung und die Fig. 3 den Exzenter in der oberen Endstellung, die den maximalen Hub des Ventilkegels des Ablaufventils bestimmt.
An embodiment of the waste and overflow fitting according to the invention is shown in the drawings and will be described below. Show it:
Fig. 1
the waste and overflow set in vertical section,
FIGS. 2 and 3
the overflow housing with the eccentric arranged therein in the section and that shows Fig. 2 shows the eccentric in the starting position and Fig. 3 shows the eccentric in the upper end position, which determines the maximum stroke of the valve cone of the drain valve.

Die Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur 1 weist ein Überlaufgehäuse 2, ein Ablaufgehäuse 3 und ein Überlaufrohr 4 auf, dessen Enden mit den genannten Gehäusen verbunden sind. Das Ablaufgehäuse 3 ist mit einem Ablaufstutzen 5 versehen, an dem eine Ablaüfleitung 6a angeschlossen ist, die zu einem Geruchverschluß führen kann.The waste and overflow set 1 has an overflow housing 2, a drain housing 3 and an overflow pipe 4, whose ends are connected to said housings. The drain housing 3 is provided with a drain pipe 5, to which a Ablaüfleitung 6a is connected, which can lead to a smell trap.

Im Ablaufgehäuse und zwar im Übergangsbereich zum Überlaufrohr 4 ist ein rohrförmiges Einsatzstück 6 angeordnet, in dem ein zweiarmiger Hebel 7 schwenkbar gelagert ist. Der zweiarmige Hebel 7 weist einen Hebelarm 8 auf, an dem ein Zugmittel 9 befestigt ist, das in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel als Seil oder Litze ausgebildet ist, das bzw. die aus nichtrostendem Stahl gefertigt ist. Als Zugmittel kann auch eine Kette verwendet werden.In the drain housing, namely in the transition region to the overflow pipe 4, a tubular insert 6 is arranged, in which a two-armed lever 7 is pivotally mounted. The two-armed lever 7 has a lever arm 8, on which a traction means 9 is fixed, which is formed in the illustrated embodiment as a rope or strand, which is made of stainless steel. As a traction means can also be used a chain.

Das obere Ende des Zugmittels 9 ist mit einer Ausgleichfeder 10 verbunden, die im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel als zylindrische Schraubenfeder ausgebildet ist und mit ihrem anderen Ende an einer Exzenterlasche 11 befestigt ist. Die Exzenterlasche 11 ist an einer Exzenterwelle 12 festgelegt, die zwei Schenkel 13 und 14 miteinander verbindet. Der Exzenter ist somit U-förmig gestaltet. Der Schenkel 13 des Exzenters ist um einen gehäusefesten Zapfen 15 drehbar gelagert, während der Schenkel 14 mit einer hülsenförmigen Aufnahme 16 für eine Keilwelle 17 einer Rosette 18 einstückig ist. Die Rosette 18, die von Hand aus bestätigt wird, ist drehbar im Überlaufgehäuse gelagert.The upper end of the traction means 9 is connected to a compensating spring 10, which is formed in the illustrated embodiment as a cylindrical coil spring and is secured at its other end to an eccentric tab 11. The eccentric tab 11 is fixed to an eccentric shaft 12 which connects two legs 13 and 14 with each other. The eccentric is thus U-shaped. The leg 13 of the eccentric is rotatably mounted about a housing-fixed pin 15, while the leg 14 with a sleeve-shaped receptacle 16 for a splined shaft 17 of a rosette 18 is integral. The rosette 18, which is confirmed by hand, is rotatably mounted in the overflow housing.

Die Drehbewegung der Rosette 18 wird über den oberen Totpunkt ausgeführt (s. Fig. 3). In dieser oberen Stellung ist somit gewährleistet, daß bei Belastung des Ablaufkegels zwar die Feder 10 den Kraftausgleich vornimmt, daß aber die Rosette 18 nicht aus dieser Position bewegt wird. Bisher wurden zusätzlich Reibmittel (beispielsweise Kunststoffedern) zum Halten der Rosette und des Bowdenzugs in der oberen Stellung eingesetzt, die somit entfallen können.
Ebenso ist ein Nachlassen oder ein Verschleiß einer derartigen Kunststoffeder ausgeschlossen.The rotational movement of the rosette 18 is performed above the top dead center (see Fig. 3). In this upper position is thus ensured that while loading the Ablaufkegels while the spring 10 performs the force balance, but that the rosette 18 is not moved from this position. So far, additional friction means (such as plastic springs) were used to hold the rosette and the Bowden cable in the upper position, which can thus be omitted.
Likewise, a decrease or wear of such plastic is excluded.

Die Drehbewegung der Rosette 18 kann mit als auch gegen den Uhrzeigersinn ausgelegt sein.The rotational movement of the rosette 18 can be designed with clockwise and counterclockwise.

Bedingt durch das Zugmittel kann dieses auch nur in Zugrichtung arbeiten. Damit der Hebel 7 bei Entlastung des Zugseils sicher in die untere Ausgangsstelle schwenkt, ist eine Doppelschenkelfeder 19 angebracht. In ihr wird die Arbeit zum Schließen des Ventils bereits bei der Öffnungsbewegung gespeichert.Due to the traction means this can also work only in the pulling direction. So that the lever 7 safely pivots in relief of the pull rope in the lower starting point, a double leg spring 19 is attached. In it, the work to close the valve is already stored during the opening movement.

An dem Hebelarm 8 des zweiarmigen Hebels 7 stützt sich ein Schenkel 19 der Schenkelfeder ab, deren anderer Schenkel 20 am Einsatzstück 6 anliegt.On the lever arm 8 of the two-armed lever 7, a leg 19 of the leg spring is supported, the other leg 20 rests on the insert piece 6.

Der zweite Hebelarm 21 des Hebels 7 dient zur Hubverstellung des Ventilkegels 22 und arbeitet mit einem Gewindestift 23 des Ventilkegels zusammen. Der Hebelarm 21 ist bogenförmig ausgebildet und nimmt in der Fig. 1 die Ausgangslage ein, in der er von dem Gewindestift 23 getrennt ist und der Ventilkegel sich in der Verschlußstellung befindet und seine Dichtung 24 die Zulauföffnung des Ventiloberteils 25 verschließt.The second lever arm 21 of the lever 7 serves for stroke adjustment of the valve cone 22 and cooperates with a threaded pin 23 of the valve cone. The lever arm 21 is arcuate and assumes in Fig. 1, the starting position in which it is separated from the threaded pin 23 and the valve plug is in the closed position and its seal 24 closes the inlet opening of the valve top 25.

Der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Lage des zweiarmigen Hebels 7 entspricht die in der Fig. 2 aufgezeigte Lage des Exzenters des Überlaufgehäuses 2.The position of the two-armed lever 7 shown in FIG. 1 corresponds to the position of the eccentric of the overflow housing 2 shown in FIG. 2.

Durch Verdrehen der Rosette 18 wird über das Zugmittel 9 der Hebel 7 vorzugsweise mit dem Uhrzeigersinn verschwenkt, so daß der Hebelarm 21 mit dem Gewindestift 23 zusammenwirkt und den Ventilkegel anhebt. Die obere Endstellung des Ventilkegels wird im Überlaufgehäuse 2 durch einen Anschlag 26 bestimmt, der mit dem Schenkel 13 des Exzenters zusammenwirkt.By turning the rosette 18, the lever 7 is preferably pivoted about the traction means 9 in the clockwise direction, so that the lever arm 21 cooperates with the threaded pin 23 and raises the valve plug. The upper end position of the valve cone is determined in the overflow housing 2 by a stop 26 which cooperates with the leg 13 of the eccentric.

Die Ausgleichsfeder 10, die eine Belastung des geöffneten Ventilkegels 22 bei geöffnetem Ventil ausgleichen kann, kann auch zwischen dem Hebelarm 8 und dem zugeordneten Ende des Zugmittels 9 oder innerhalb des Zugmittels 9 vorgesehen werden.The compensating spring 10, which can compensate for a load of the open valve cone 22 with the valve open, can also be provided between the lever arm 8 and the associated end of the traction means 9 or within the traction means 9.

Da das Zugmittel 9 ausschließlich im Innenraum des Überlaufrohres 4 angeordnet ist, ist diese Ab- und Überlaufgarnitur insbesondere für freistehende Badewannen geeignet. Since the traction means 9 is arranged exclusively in the interior of the overflow pipe 4, this waste and overflow set is particularly suitable for freestanding bathtubs.
