Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cistern for a toilet system, with a box body for storing rinsing water, a filling valve for filling the box body with rinse water, one in the bottom the drain body arranged through the flushing water can be dispensed into the toilet, an actuator to trigger a flush, a control device for control the flushing and filling process and with means for electronic Detection of the fill level of the box body.
  • a cistern of this type is known from DE 3640216 A. become. This enables the optional delivery of a flushing water volume of three liters, six liters or nine liters.
  • the desired flushing water volume can be set on sensors, which are arranged on the front of the box body. There are three sensors in the box body to control the flushing arranged after the desired amount of flushing water has run out interrupt the leakage process by electronics the supply of a magnet that switches off the outlet valve operated. The electronics are powered by a standard power supply or powered by a battery.
  • the box body is again via an inlet valve until a water content of nine liters is reached filled.
  • Another cistern of this type is known from US 5,036,553 become. This cistern can also have different options Flush volumes can be selected.
  • An upper light barrier corresponds to the Full filling of the cistern and when the full filling is reached the filling process is triggered by a corresponding signal from the controller interrupted.
  • the task is solved with the generic cistern by that the means mentioned during the filling state of the box body of the rinsing process and the filling process continuously.
  • the water level is stepless detected. This enables the flush volume and also the filling volume free to set, for example free to program.
  • the suitable flush volume or flush volumes can therefore be used for one optimal flushing process precisely to the toilet system and in particular can be adapted to the toilet bowl.
  • the small amount of flushing can be set to 3.2 liters or 2.8 liters, for example become.
  • the filling quantity is also freely adjustable, i.e. the level at which the cistern is filled and therefore in Initial state is. So far this has been a fixed predetermined Amount of, for example, 9 liters. In the cistern according to the invention this amount can be freely and continuously adjusted, for example to 8.8 liters or 9.2 liters.
  • means for detecting the filling state are the invention a proximity sensor, a pressure sensor, a force sensor or a turbine measuring device.
  • Such measuring equipment are known per se and can be comparatively inexpensive will be realized.
  • the level can over the entire height, i.e. essentially from the cistern floor comparatively precisely determined up to the maximum filling quantity become.
  • the physically measured quantity, the level corresponds to, for example, a pressure or a buoyancy force.
  • the physical value is preferably electronic transferred to the control.
  • the control thus has about a value that corresponds to the current water level in the box body corresponds. This value can continuously with entered values be compared in which the drain valve and / or the fill valve must be operated.
  • a method according to the invention for actuating a cistern results from the corresponding independent claim.
  • the cistern 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a cistern body 2 on, which is designed as a reservoir for rinsing water 3 and in the usual way a box bottom 2a, side walls 2b, a Top wall 2c, a rear wall 2d and one not shown here Has front wall.
  • the top wall 2c can be lifted off Lid be formed.
  • a concealed cistern is in a common inspection opening is provided on the front wall.
  • valve body 42 which cooperates with a valve seat 43 and which can be moved vertically by means of an electromagnet 41 is.
  • the valve opening is 43 open and rinse water 3 can in a not shown here Flushing bow and finally in a toilet bowl or the like pour.
  • An actuating device 5 is used to trigger a flush provided that in the top wall 2c or outside the Cistern 1 can be arranged and via a signal line 11 is connected to a controller 8.
  • the actuator For example, 5 has two buttons 6 and 7 that optionally actuated to trigger a flush.
  • the one Button 6 is for triggering a small flush, for example with 3 liters of water and the other button 7 for triggering a full flush, for example with 6 liters of water.
  • Keys 6 and 7 can be mechanical keys or also Be tactile sensors. When button 6 or 7 is pressed a corresponding signal via line 11 of controller 8 fed.
  • a filling valve 17 is also arranged in the cistern body 2, which also has a valve body 39, which has a valve seat 40 cooperates and by means of an electromagnet 38 is movable.
  • the filling valve 17 is connected to a water supply line 18 connected and has an inlet pipe 19 through the water can be supplied to the box body 2 for refilling. At open valve and thus with the valve body 39 raised Flushing water flows through the inlet pipe 19 into the box body 2.
  • the filling valve 17 is connected to the via a signal line 12 Controller 8 connected. With the controller 8, the electromagnet 38 controlled and thus the valve body 39 raised or be lowered.
  • Such valves are known per se to the person skilled in the art.
  • the electronics of the controller 8 are fed by a battery 44.
  • the electronics can also be supplied via a conventional one Power supply.
  • a measuring device 9 is also arranged in the cistern body 2, which is a means of continuously measuring the fill level of the box body 2 forms.
  • the also schematically in Figure 3 shown measuring device 9 has a vertically extending Tube 10, which, as can be seen, essentially from the ground 2a extends to the maximum water level 4.
  • the pipe 10 forms with a pressure measuring means 27 arranged at the upper end a pressure sensor 25.
  • the rinsing water 3 exerts on the hollow and closed Pipe 10 a pressure that is proportional to the height H of the water level 4 above the bottom wall 2a. Sinks at one Flushing the level 4, the pressure on the pipe 10 increases continuously from.
  • the measuring means 27 the pressure in the tube 10 measured and fed as a signal to the controller 8 via a line 28.
  • the measured pressure is therefore a measure of the filling level of the box body 2.
  • the pressure sensor 9 can also by another suitable means can be replaced, for example by the proximity sensor 20 2, the force sensor 31 according to Figure 4 or by the Turbine measuring device 33 according to FIG. 5. Common to these Measuring equipment the continuous recording of the filling status.
  • a floating arm 21 provided which is rotatably mounted about an axis 22 and has a wheel 23 of a rotary encoder.
  • the angle of rotation of the wheel 23 is detected with a measuring device 24 and as a signal of Control 8 fed. If the filling level in the box body 2 drops, the floating arm 21 rotates clockwise and accordingly the wheel 23 is rotated about the axis 22. The swivel position of the floating arm 21 thus corresponds to the filling state of the Box body 2.
  • one is free rotatable turbine 34 arranged in a U-shaped tube 46, the has a riser 35 which is open at the top.
  • the filling level drops after triggering a flush, it drops at the same time the water level in the riser 35 and as a result of this Flow in the tube 46, the turbine 34 is driven.
  • the number of rotations of the turbine 34 corresponds to the height difference level 4.
  • the rotations of the turbine 34 are recorded in a measuring device 47 and corresponding values are obtained supplied to the controller 8 via a line 48.
  • the controller 8 is with input means 16 via a signal line 13 connected, the two adjusting knobs 36 and 37 has.
  • a scale can be used Value to be set which corresponds to the filling status of the box body 2 in the initial state and thus corresponds to full filling. This value is, for example, 9 liters. But it is here any other value is also continuously adjustable, for example 9.1 liters or 8.5 liters. This filling state is shown in FIG. 1 indicated with A.
  • a value can be set on the adjusting knob 37, which corresponds to the filling state after a partial rinse.
  • this is Fill status indicated with B.
  • the box body is 2 filled with 6 liters, for example.
  • Knobs 36 and 37 can also be replaced by other suitable setting means and an embodiment is also conceivable in which still others such setting means are provided.
  • Contactless actuation is also conceivable the setting, for example by means of a mobile telephone. The operation of the cistern 1 follows explained in more detail.
  • the cistern 1 In the idle state, the cistern 1 according to FIG. 1 is up to one Level 4 filled with rinse water.
  • a rinse button 6 or button 7 Via line 11 the control 8 is activated, which via the line 14 Drain valve 15 opens by lifting valve body 42. Rinse water 3 leaves the cistern through the valve seat 43 and level 4 drops accordingly.
  • Measuring device 9 measures the filling status of the box body is continuously and continuously 2 for example by means of a pressure or force measurement.
  • the controller compares the corresponding value with the value which has been set on button 37. Reaches the fill level a value corresponding to the value set on the rotary knob 37 is, the filling valve 15 is closed via the controller 8.
  • the filling valve is via line 12 17 opened and water flows through the inlet pipe 19 into the Box body 2 so that level 4 rises again.
  • the measuring device 9 continuously and continuously measures the fill level and the controller 8 compares the measured value with that Value that is set on the rotary knob 36. Are both values the filling valve 17 is closed via the control 8. If the fill level is set to eight liters at the rotary knob 36, the filling valve 17 is thus interrupted as soon as that Level 4 has reached the fill level of eight liters. The cistern 1 is now ready for another rinse.
  • the cistern 1 If the cistern 1 is revised, it shows that the flushing quantities or the filling status is no longer optimal or if a toilet bowl is exchanged for a different one, by turning the adjusting knobs 36 and 37 the flush volumes can be changed freely and thus optimally adjusted.
  • the cistern 1 now works automatically according to this new values.
  • the controller can also be programmed that based on stored data about the flushing device Self-tuning or optimization is possible.
