Description

Urinale, insbesondere keramische Urinale sind schon seit Jahrzehnten bekannt. Sie sind zur Befestigung an einer Montagewand vorgesehen und besitzen eine Schale mit einem zur Reinigung des Schalenbeckens mit Spülwasser dienenden Spülwasserring, einen Spülwasser-Einlass und einen Ablauf, der im montierten Zustand mit einem Geruchsverschluss verbunden ist. Ein Urinal mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 ist aus dem Dokument JP-A- 2000 273937 und dessen Zusammenfassung in " Patent abstracts of Japan", vol.2000, no. 13, bekannt.Urinals, especially ceramic urinals, have been around since Known for decades. They are for attachment to a mounting wall provided and have a bowl with one for cleaning the bowl basin with rinse water ring serving rinse water, a rinse water inlet and a drain that assembled state is connected to an odor trap. A urinal with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is from Document JP-A-2000 273937 and its summary in "Patent abstracts of Japan", vol.2000, no. 13, are known.

Die Schale selbst weist im allgemeinen eine freiliegende, ebene oder konkave Rückwand auf, die sich im wesentlichen über das Niveau hinaus erstreckt, an welchem die Schalen-Vorderkante liegt.The shell itself generally has an exposed, flat or concave back wall, which is essentially extends beyond the level at which the shell leading edge lies.

Es ist bekannt, dass Urinale aufgrund ihrer Form, das heisst im wesentlichen aufgrund der verhältnismässig grossflächigen, nahezu ebenen Schalenrückwand und aufgrund schwer zugänglicher Nischen, schwierig zu reinigen sind. Die technische Entwicklung von keramischen Urinalen hat sich daher bis heute vor allem auch auf die Form der Urinalschale, den als Siphon ausgebildeten Geruchsverschluss sowie auch auf den für eine optimale Wasserführung verantwortlichen Spülwasserring gerichtet. Diesen Weiterentwicklungen lag also insbesondere die Aufgabe zugrunde, mit nur einem Spülgang eine optimale Reinigung des Urinalbeckens zu erzielen.It is known that urinals due to their shape, that essentially means due to the relatively large almost flat shell rear wall and due to heavy accessible niches that are difficult to clean. The technical Development of ceramic urinals has therefore continued until today especially on the shape of the urinal shell, the as Siphon-trained odor trap as well as on the for an optimal water flow responsible irrigation water ring directed. So these developments were particularly important based on the task of optimal with just one rinse To achieve cleaning of the urinal basin.

Bekannte Urinale benötigen nach wie vor eine beträchtliche Wassermenge, so zum Beispiel etwa zwei bis drei Liter, um eine optimale Reinigung zu erzielen. Da nun die für den Spülvorgang üblicherweise eingesetzten Spülwasserreservoirs an das Trinkwassernetz angeschlossen werden, gilt es, den Wasserverbrauch von Urinalen bei mindestens gleichbleibender Reinigungswirkung weiter zu reduzieren.Known urinals still require a considerable amount Amount of water, for example about two to three liters to achieve an optimal cleaning. Now that for the rinsing process usually used rinse water reservoirs the drinking water network to be connected, it is important to consider the water consumption of urinals with at least the same To further reduce the cleaning effect.

Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein neuartiges - keramisches - Urinal, mit welchem bei mindestens gleichbleibender Reinigungswirkung der Wasserverbrauch weiter reduziert wird, nämlich ein Urinal mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a novel - ceramic - urinal, with which at least constant cleaning effect of water consumption is further reduced, namely a urinal with the features of claim 1.

Nachfolgend wird anhand der Zeichnung die Erfindung näher erläutert. In der Zeichnung zeigt

  • die Figur 1 eine Frontansicht eines ersten erfindungsgemässen Wandurinals,
  • die Figur 2 eine Seitenansicht des Urinals gemäss Figur 1,
  • die Figur 3 einen Längsschnitt durch den oberen Abschnitt des Spülwasserringes des in der Figur 1 dargestellten Urinals in vergrössertem Massstab,
  • die Figur 4 einen Querschnitt durch eine erste Ausführungsform eines Spülwasser-Einlauf-Stutzens.
    • The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing. In the drawing shows
  • 1 shows a front view of a first wall urinal according to the invention,
  • FIG. 2 shows a side view of the urinal according to FIG. 1,
  • 3 shows a longitudinal section through the upper section of the flushing water ring of the urinal shown in FIG. 1 on an enlarged scale,
  • 4 shows a cross section through a first embodiment of a rinse water inlet connector.

    • Das in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellte und als ganzes mit 1 bezeichnete keramische Urinal ist als Wandurinal ausgebildet und besitzt eine Schale 2. Diese weist ihrerseits einen vorderen Schalenrand 3 auf, der sich wandwärts nach oben erstreckt und an der Schalenoberseite den oberen Abschnitt 4a des Spülwasserringes 5 bildet.The one shown in Figures 1 to 3 and as a whole Ceramic urinal designated 1 is designed as a wall urinal and has a bowl 2. This in turn points a front edge of the shell 3, which extends towards the wall extends above and the upper section on the top of the shell 4a of the rinse water ring 5 forms.

    Die Schale 2 bildet ein Schalenbecken 6, das von einer im wesentlichen vertikalen, ebenen oder konkaven, sich über den vorderen Schalenrand hinaus erstreckenden Rückwand 7 und einer gebogenen Vorderwand 8 begrenzt ist.The shell 2 forms a bowl basin 6, which is essentially one vertical, flat or concave, over the front shell edge extending rear wall 7 and a curved front wall 8 is limited.

    Schalenrückseitig ist ein in den oberen Abschnitt 4a des Spülwasserringes 5 mündender horizontaler Spülwasser-Einlass 9 vorgesehen, in welchem ein nachfolgend noch näher beschriebener Einlauf-Stutzen 10 steckt. Letzterer ist an ein nicht gezeichnetes Spülwasserreservoir anschliessbar, das beispielsweise als Spülkasten in einer Montagewand angeordnet ist. Der Einlauf-Stutzen 10 kann aber auch in bekannter Art und Weise über ein Magnetventil direkt - das heisst ohne zusätzlichen Spülkasten - an einer Spülwasserleitung angeschlossen sein.The back of the shell is in the upper section 4a of the Flushing water ring 5 opening horizontal flushing water inlet 9 is provided, in which one described in more detail below Inlet nozzle 10 is inserted. The latter is not one drawn rinse water reservoir connectable, for example arranged as a cistern in a mounting wall is. The inlet connector 10 can also in a known manner and directly via a solenoid valve - that is, without additional Cistern - connected to a flushing water line his.

    Das Schalenbecken 6 ist im Bodenbereich mit einem Ablauf 11 versehen, der in üblicher Weise mit einem U-förmigen Geruchsverschluss 12 verbunden ist.The bowl basin 6 is provided with a drain 11 in the bottom area, the usual way with a U-shaped odor trap 12 is connected.

    Wie die bekannten Urinale so weist auch das erfindungsgemässe Urinal 1 einen zur Durchspülung des Schalenbeckens 6 dienenden Spülwasserring 5 auf, der sich über die gesamte Aufnahmeöffnung der Schale 2 erstreckt und zumindest in seinem oberen Abschnitt 4a und in seinem dem vorderen Schalenrand 3 zugeordneten unteren Abschnitt 4b mit Löchern 13 zum Durchspülen des Schalenbeckens 6 mit schwerkraftbelastetem Spülwasser versehen ist. Like the known urinals, the one according to the invention also shows Urinal 1 is used to flush the bowl basin 6 Flushing water ring 5, which extends over the entire receiving opening the shell 2 extends and at least in its upper Section 4a and in its associated with the front shell edge 3 lower section 4b with holes 13 for rinsing the bowl basin 6 with gravity-loaded rinse water is.

    Das erfindungsgemässe Urinal 1 besitzt im oberen Abschnitt 4a des Spülwasserringes 5 noch zusätzlich zwei randseitig angeordnete, vertikal nach oben ragende keramische Rippen 14, die so dimensioniert sind, dass sich beim Spülen der obere Abschnitt 4a des Spülwasserringes 5 kurzzeitig bis auf ein in der Figur 3 mit 15 bezeichnetes Höchstniveau mit Spülwasser füllen kann, um dadurch einen über die verschiedenen Löcher 13 des oberen Abschnittes 4a gleichmässig verteilten und die Rückwand 7 vollständig benetzenden Spülwasserstrom zu erzeugen. Durch geeignete Wahl der Rippenhöhe, der Anzahl der Löcher 13 sowie des durch die Löcher 13 im oberen Abschnitt 4a gebildeten Gesamtdurchflussquerschnittes kann darüber hinaus der Spülvorgang so optimiert werden, dass bei minimalem Wasserverbrauch genügend Wasser die Rückwand durch den oberen Abschnitt 4a bespült und ebenfalls genügend Wasser in den unteren Abschnitt 4b gelangt, um den Boden bzw. Grund der Schale 2 einwandfrei zu reinigen.The urinal 1 according to the invention has in the upper section 4a of the rinsing water ring 5 additionally two on the edge arranged, vertically projecting ceramic Ribs 14, which are dimensioned so that when rinsing the upper section 4a of the rinsing water ring 5 for a short time to a maximum level denoted by 15 in FIG Rinse water can fill up to make one over the different Holes 13 of the upper section 4a evenly distributed and the back wall 7 completely wetting the flushing water flow produce. By a suitable choice of the rib height, the number of Holes 13 and through the holes 13 in the upper section 4a formed total flow cross section can also the rinsing process can be optimized so that with minimal Water use enough water through the back section through the top section 4a rinsed and also enough water in the lower section 4b arrives at the bottom of the Dish 2 can be cleaned properly.

    Wie insbesondere aus der Figur 4 ersichtlich ist, besitzt der Einlauf-Stutzen 10, der vorzugsweise aus metallischem Material oder aus Kunststoff besteht und mittels handelsübliche Verschlussmitteln an der Schale 2 befestigt wird, eine horizontale nach oben gerichtete Wassereintragungsöffnung 16, welche durch den Teller 17 gebildet wird. Letzterer lenkt beim Spülvorgang das in den Spülwasserring 5 einströmende Spülwasser in Pfeilrichtung 26 nach oben ab. Dadurch wird der Wasserstrahl einerseits abgebremst und gleichmässig im oberen Abschnitt 4a des Spülwasserringes 5 verteilt und andererseits vor dem Durchtritt durch die Löcher 13 mindestens zum Teil an der Oberseite des Abschnittes 4a zurückgeworfen, so dass dadurch keine den Urinalbenutzer benässenden Spritzer entstehen. As can be seen in particular from FIG the inlet connector 10, which is preferably made of metallic material or consists of plastic and using commercially available Closure means is attached to the shell 2, a horizontal upward water inlet opening 16, which is formed by the plate 17. The latter directs during the flushing process, the one flowing into the flushing water ring 5 Rinse water in the direction of arrow 26 upwards. This will make the Water jet slowed down on the one hand and evenly in the upper Section 4a of the rinsing water ring 5 distributed and on the other hand at least partially before passing through the holes 13 thrown back of the top of section 4a, thereby no splashes wetting the urinal user occur.

    Die beiden den oberen Abschnitt 4a randseitig begrenzenden Rippen 14 sind insbesondere dann erforderlich, wenn der obere Abschnitt 4a - wie in den Figuren 1 und 3 gezeichnet - bogenförmig ist. In diesem Fall ist die kurzzeitige Bildung eines durch die Niveaulinie 15 angedeuteten Spülwassersees notwendig, will man einerseits einen über die verschiedenen Löcher 13 des Abschnittes 4a gleichmässig verteilten und die Rückwand 7 vollständig berieselten Spülwasserstrom erzeugen und andererseits einen nachteiligen, allenfalls zu grossen Spülwasserfluss in den unteren Abschnitt 4b des Spülwasserringes 5 verhindern.The two border the upper section 4a on the edge Ribs 14 are particularly necessary when the upper Section 4a - as drawn in Figures 1 and 3 - arcuate is. In this case, the short-term formation is one rinsing water lakes indicated by level line 15 necessary, on the one hand you want one over the different holes 13 of section 4a evenly distributed and the rear wall 7 generate fully irrigated rinse water flow and on the other hand, a disadvantageous, if necessary excessive flow of rinse water in the lower section 4b of the rinse water ring 5 prevent.

    Das anhand der Figuren 1 bis 4 beschriebene Urinal 1 weist gegenüber bekannten Urinalen den wesentlichen Vorteil auf, dass zur optimalen Spülung des Schalenbeckens 6 nur etwa ein Liter Wasser benötigt wird. The urinal 1 described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 has the main advantage over known urinals on that for optimal flushing of the bowl basin 6 only about Liters of water is needed.

    Es sei abschliessend noch darauf hingewiesen, dass die anhand der Figuren 1 bis 4 beschriebenen Urinale nur eine Auswahl von mehreren möglichen Ausführungsformen der Erfindung darstellen und in verschiedener Hinsicht geändert werden können.Finally, it should be pointed out that the only one urinals described with reference to Figures 1 to 4 Selection of several possible embodiments of the invention represent and changed in various ways can be.

    So kann zur Optimierung des Spülvorganges die Form des oberen und/oder unteren Abschnittes des Spülwasserringes abhängig von der Grösse und der Dimensionierung des Urinals in verschiedener Hinsicht verändert und/oder mit einer variablen Anzahl von Löchern mit unterschiedlichen oder einheitlichen Querschnitten versehen sein.So to optimize the washing process, the shape of the depending on the upper and / or lower section of the rinse water ring on the size and dimensions of the urinal in changed in various ways and / or with a variable Number of holes with different or uniform Cross sections.

    Schliesslich kann ein erfindungsgemässes Urinal selbstverständlich auch als Standurinal ausgebildet sein, so dass es nicht hängend an einer Montagewand befestigt werden muss.Finally, a urinal according to the invention can be taken for granted also be designed as a standurinal, so that it does not have to be attached to a mounting wall.
