Abstract

The tap unit has a filler unit (35) and a drain valve (2) with actuator. The valve actuator is automatically regulated via a water intake of the filler unit, e.g. the drain valve is closed when the filler valve (39) is opened. The actuator has a chamber (18) connected to the filler unit, which is filled with water when the filler valve is opened, and which contains an actuator element. This is charged by the water to close the drain valve. The element has a membrane, deformed by the water, and connected to a plunger, which in turn is connected to a closing lever (8).
