Bei der aus der US 5,966,132 bekannten Losung sind der Sitz und der Deckel entlang einer Schwenkachse gelagert, wobei die Absenkbewegung des Sitzes bzw. des Deckels durch eine Dämpfungseinrichtung mit einer federvorgespannten Kulissenführung und einem Flüssigkeitsdämpfer steuerbar ist.In the solution known from US 5,966,132 the seat and the cover are mounted along a pivot axis, wherein the lowering movement of the seat or the lid is controlled by a damping device with a spring-biased link guide and a liquid damper.
Die Kombination von federvorgespannter Kulissenführung und Flüssigkeitsdämpfer erfordert einen erheblichen vorrichtungstechnischen Aufwand, so daß der Gesamtpreis des WC-Sitzes nicht unerheblich vom Gelenk mitgeprägt wird.The combination of spring-loaded link guide and fluid damper requires a considerable device complexity, so that the total price of the toilet seat is not inconsiderable mitgeprägt from the joint.
In der US 6,009,568 ist ein WC-Sitzgelenk offenbart, bei dem der Sitz und der Deckel mit jeweils getrennten Schwenkachsen ausgeführt sind. durch diese getrennte Ausführung der Schwenkachsen wird zwar eine gleichmäßigere Führung des Sitzes und des Deckels ermöglicht, bei dieser Variante ist jedoch ein erheblicher Platzbedarf erforderlich, um die beiden versetzt zueinander angeordneten Schwenkachsen mit den entsprechenden Dämpfungseinrichtungen ausbilden zu können.In US 6,009,568 a toilet seat hinge is disclosed, in which the seat and the lid are designed with separate pivot axes. Although a more even guidance of the seat and the cover is made possible by this separate embodiment of the pivot axes, in this variant, however, a considerable space is required in order to train the two mutually offset pivot axes with the corresponding damping devices can.
Die WO 99/63875 A1 und die WO 99/63874 A1 zeigen ebenfalls WC-Sitzgelenke, bei denen der Sitz und der Deckel auf einer gemeinsamen Schwenkachse angeordnet sind. Diese Schwenkachse wird durch zwei den Sitz und den Deckel führenden Gelenkbolzen gebildet, die mit einer Dämpfungseinrichtung in Form von Federelementen zusammenwirken. Diese Gelenkbolzen sind über einen Verbindungsmechanismus gekoppelt, der ein Lösen der Garnitur von der Keramik ermöglicht.WO 99/63875 A1 and WO 99/63874 A1 also show toilet seat hinges, in which the seat and the cover are arranged on a common pivot axis. This pivot axis is formed by two hinge pins leading the seat and the lid, which cooperate with a damping device in the form of spring elements. These hinge pins are over one Coupled coupling mechanism that allows a release of the set of the ceramic.
Nachteilig bei den vorbeschriebenen Lösungen ist, daß ein erheblicher vorrichtungstechnischer Aufwand erforderlich ist, um die Schwenkachse der Sitzgarnitur auszubilden.A disadvantage of the above-described solutions that a considerable device-technical effort is required to form the pivot axis of the seat assembly.
Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein WC-Sitzgelenk zu schaffen, das eine zuverlässige Dämpfung der Absenkbewegung eines Sitzes oder eines Deckels bei minimalem vorrichtungstechnischem Aufwand ermöglicht.In contrast, the present invention seeks to provide a toilet seat hinge that allows reliable damping of the lowering movement of a seat or a lid with minimal device-technical effort.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein WC-Sitzgelenk mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a toilet seat hinge with the features of claim 1.
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Schwenkachse einer WC-Sitzgarnitur durch eine Dämpfungseinrichtung gebildet, die über ein Adapterstück mit den keramikseitigen Scharnierdornen verbunden ist. Die Dämpfungseinrichtung ist drehfest mit dem Adapterstück verbunden und in einer Aufnahmebohrung der WC-Sitzgarnitur aufgenommen, wobei die Dämpfungseinrichtung entweder mit dem Sitz oder dem Deckel der WC-Garnitur drehfest verbunden ist, so daß wahlweise die Bewegung des Sitzes oder des Deckels gebremst wird. Dabei sind die Schwenkachsen, entlang denen die WC-Sitzgarnitur verschwenkbar ist, im Wesentlichen durch die Dämpfungseinrichtung und das Adapterstück gebildet - mit anderen Worten - der Deckel und/oder der Sitz sind direkt auf diesen Bauelementen gelagert, so daß der vorrichtungstechnische Aufwand gegenüber herkömmlichen Lösungen, bei denen Schwenkachse und Dämpfungseinrichtung durch getrennte Elemente gebildet wurden, wesentlich verringert ist. Das Adapterstück ist erfindungsgemäss mit einer radialen Bohrung versehen, in die der Scharnierdorn beim Aufsetzen eintaucht.According to the invention a pivot axis of a toilet seat set is formed by a damping device which is connected via an adapter piece with the ceramic-side hinge pins. The damping device is rotatably connected to the adapter piece and received in a receiving bore of the toilet seat set, wherein the damping device is rotatably connected either with the seat or the lid of the toilet set, so that either the movement of the seat or the lid is braked. The pivot axes along which the toilet seat set is pivotally formed essentially by the damping device and the adapter piece - in other words - the lid and / or the seat are mounted directly on these components, so that the device complexity compared to conventional solutions , in which pivot axis and damping device were formed by separate elements, is substantially reduced. The adapter piece is provided according to the invention with a radial bore into which the hinge pin dips when placed.

Es wird jedoch bevorzugt, die Dämpfungseinrichtung aus serienmäßig hergestellten Dämpfern auszubilden, wie sie auch bei anderen Anwendungen eingesetzt werden.The invention also includes embodiments in which the adapter piece and the damping device are integrally formed as a special component. However, it is preferred to form the damping device from mass-produced dampers, as used in other applications.
Die axiale Sicherung des Adapterstückes oder der Dämpfungseinrichtung erfolgt mittels einer Axialsicherung, die vorzugsweise in Radialrichtung in eine Befestigungslasche der Sitzgarnitur eingesetzt wird, so daß Adapterstück und/oder Dämpfungseinrichtung in Axialrichtung mit Bezug zur Befestigungslasche gesichert sind. Diese Variante hat den Vorteil, daß die Montage und Demontage äußerst einfach durch Einsetzen bzw. Herausnehmen der Axialsicherung erfolgen kann.The axial securing of the adapter piece or the damping device by means of an axial securing, which is preferably used in the radial direction in a mounting strap of the seat, so that adapter piece and / or damping device are secured in the axial direction with respect to the fastening tab. This variant has the advantage that the assembly and disassembly can be done very easily by inserting or removing the axial lock.
Bei einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel wird die Axialsicherung durch einen Federbügel gebildet, der durch die Befestigungslasche hindurch in eine Ringnut des Adapterstückes oder der Dämpfungseinrichtung eingesetzt wird.In a preferred embodiment, the axial securing is formed by a spring clip, which is inserted through the fastening tab into an annular groove of the adapter piece or the damping device.

In Figur 1 ist eine Schnittdarstellung einer WC-Garnitur 1 mit einem Deckel 2 und einem Sitz 4 dargestellt, die über zwei koaxial zueinander angeordnete Sitzgelenke 6, 8 mit einer lediglich angedeuteten Keramik 10 verbunden sind. Die Sitzgelenke 6, 8 sind derart ausgeführt, daß die WC-Garnitur 1 aus ihrer dargestellten Schließposition um mehr als 90 Grad in eine Öffnungsposition verschwenkt werden kann, in der der Deckel 2 und/oder der Sitz 4 an einem Anschlag anliegen.1 shows a sectional view of a toilet seat 1 with a cover 2 and a seat 4, which are connected via two coaxially arranged
Jedes der beiden Sitzgelenke 6, 8 hat einen Rotationsdämpfer 11, bzw. 12, über den die Absenkbewegung der Garnitur 1 gebremst wird. Über den Rotationsdämpfer 11 des Sitzgelenks 6 wird die Absenkbewegung des Deckels 2 und über den Rotationsdämpfer 12 des Sitzgelenks 8 die Absenkbewegung des Sitzes 4 gebremst. Bei den Rotationsdämpfern 11, 12 handelt es sich um handelsübliche Zukaufteile, so daß auf eine weiterführende Beschreibung der Funktionseigenschaften verzichtet werden kann. Das Bremsmoment der Rotationsdämpfer 11, 12 ist so ausgelegt, daß der Deckel 2 und der Sitz 4 ohne Abstützung von Hand langsam auf die Keramik 10 hin zurückschwenken können.Each of the two
Jeder Rotationsdämpfer 11, 12 hat einen Zylinder 14, in dem ein Drehkolben 16 geführt ist. Der Drehkolben 16 ist mit einer oder mehreren Abflachungen oder Ausnehmungen versehen, so daß er in formschlüssigem Eingriff mit dem Deckel 2 oder dem Sitz 4 bringbar ist. An der vom Kolben 16 entfernten Rückseite des Zylinders 14 jedes Rotationsdämpfers 11, 12 ist ein Diagonalvorsprung 18 ausgebildet, über den eine drehfeste Verbindung zu einem Adapterstück 20 erfolgt.Each
Figur 2 zeigt eine Einzeldarstellung des Adapterstückes 20, das bei den Drehgelenken 6, 8 verwendet wird.Figure 2 shows an individual view of the
Gemäß Figur 2 hat das Adapterstück 20 einen etwa zylinderförmigen Grundkörper 22, in dem eine radiale Sacklochbohrung 24 ausgebildet ist. Das Adapterstück 20 läßt sich über die Sacklochbohrung 24 auf einen Scharnierdorn 26 aufsetzen, der in der Keramik 10 verankert ist. Die Verriegelung zwischen dem Scharnierdorn 26 und dem Adapterstück 20 erfolgt über eine Schnappverbindung, die beispielsweise durch einen Feder- oder O-Ring gebildet ist, der in die Innenumfangswandung der Sacklochbohrung 24 eingesetzt ist und in eine nicht dargestellte Umfangsnut des Scharnierdorns 26 eingreift. Das heißt, die gesamte WC-Sitzgarnitur läßt sich sehr schnell mit minimalem Aufwand von den Scharnierdornen 26 abziehen.According to Figure 2, the
Am Außenumfang des Grundkörpers 22 ist desweiteren eine Ringnut 28 ausgebildet, auf deren Funktion noch im folgenden eingegangen wird. In der zur Ringnut 28 benachbarten Stirnfläche des Grundkörpers 22 ist eine diagonal verlaufende Rechtecknut 30 vorgesehen, in die der Diagonalvorsprung 18 eingreift, so daß eine drehfeste Verbindung zwischen dem Zylinder 14 des Rotationsdämpfers 11 bzw. 12 und dem Adapterstück 20 hergestellt ist.On the outer circumference of the base body 22 is further formed an
Das Adapterstück 20 und der damit in Eingriff stehende Rotationszylinder 11 bzw. 12 formen jeweils eine Schwenkachse 32, 34 der Sitzgelenke 8 bzw. 6.The
Wie insbesondere Figur 1 zu entnehmen ist, hat der Deckel zwei äußere Befestigungslaschen 36, 38, die zwei innere Befestigungslaschen 40, 42 des Sitzes 6 umgreifen. In den beiden, in Axialrichtung etwas breiter als die äußeren Befestigungslaschen 36, 38 ausgebildeten inneren Befestigungslaschen 40, 42 ist jeweils eine Aufnahmebohrung 44 bzw. 46 vorgesehen. Die Aufnahmebohrung 44 in der inneren Befestigungslasche 42 ist als Stufenbohrung ausgeführt, wobei der Durchmesser zur äußeren Befestigungslasche 38 hin verringert ist. In diesem kleineren Teil 48 der Aufnahmebohrung 44 ist eine Abflachung entsprechend des Profils des Drehkolbens 16 des Rotationsdämpfers 12 ausgebildet, so daß der Drehkolben 16 drehfest mit der inneren Befestigungslasche 42 verbunden ist. Der Drehkolben 16 durchsetzt den abgeflachten Teil 48 der Aufnahmebohrung und ragt in eine Lagerbohrung 50 der äußeren Befestigungslasche 38 hinein, wobei der Durchmesser der Lagerbohrung 50 derart gewählt ist, daß der Deckel 2 drehbar auf dem Drehkolben 48 gelagert ist.As can be seen in particular Figure 1, the lid has two
Die dem Sitzgelenk 6 zugeordnete Aufnahmebohrung 46 ist als Durchgangsbohrung mit gleichbleibendem Durchmesser ausgebildet.The seat joint 6 associated receiving
In den vom Drehkolben 16 durchsetzten Endabschnitt ist eine Distanzhülse 52 eingesetzt, die den Drehkolben 16 des Rotationsdämpfers 11 gleitend umgreift, so daß der Sitz 4 über die Aufnahmebohrung 46 drehbar auf dem Außenumfang des Adapterstücks 20, des zugeordneten Rotationsdämpfers 11 und des Distanzstücks 52 gelagert ist. Der Drehkolben 16 durchsetzt das Distanzstück 52 und ragt in eine Aufnahme 54 der benachbarten äußeren Befestigungslasche 36 hinein, wobei das Profil der Aufnahme 54 entsprechend des Profils des Drehkolbens 16 ausgeformt ist, so daß der Deckel 2 drehfest mit dem Drehkolben 16 verbunden ist.In the penetrated by the
Das heißt, bei der vorbeschriebenen Konstruktion wird der Deckel 2 über dem Eingriff der äußeren Befestigungslasche 36 mit dem Rotationsdämpfer 11 abgebremst, wobei die Drehkolben 16 der beiden Rotationsdämpfer 11, 12 als Schwenkachse wirken. Die Absenkbewegung des Sitzes 4 wird durch den Eingriff des Drehkolbens 16 des Rotationsdämpfers 12 mit dem Teil 48 der Aufnahmebohrung 44 gebremst, wobei der Außenumfang der Rotationsdämpfer 11, 12, der Adapterstücke 20 und der Drehkolben 16 als Schwenklager für den Sitz 4 wirken.That is, in the above construction, the lid 2 is braked over the engagement of the
Die Axialsicherung der beiden Sitzgelenke 6, 8 erfolgt jeweils über einen Federbügel 56, der gemäß Figur 4, etwa U-förmig gebogen ist, wobei die Enden V-förmig auseinandergebogen werden. Im Anschluß an die V-förmig auseinandergebogenen Endabschnitte sind die beiden U-Schenkel des Federbügels 56 zu einem Auge 58 kreisbogenförmig ausgewölbt. Wie insbesondere aus dem Schnitt A-A gemäß Figur 3 hervorgeht, ist der Durchmesser des Auges 58 so gewählt, daß die Innenflächen der U-Schenkel des Federbügels 56 die Umfangswandungen des durch die Ringnut 28 ausgebildeten Steges des Adapterstücks 20 kraft- oder formschlüssig umgreifen, wobei allerdings noch eine Relativdrehung zwischen Adapterstück 20 und Federbügel 56 ermöglicht ist. Gemäß Figur 3 ist in jeder inneren Befestigungslasche 40, 42 ein sich in Radialrichtung erstreckender Einführschlitz 60 ausgebildet, durch den hindurch der Federbügel 56 derart in die Befestigungslasche 40 bzw. 42 einsetzbar ist, daß das Auge 58 den durch die Ringnut 28 gebildeten mittleren Steg des Adapterstückes 20 umgreift.
