Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for generating a Whirlpool bath in a sanitary tub with several in the Bottom of the sanitary tub used nozzles for the feed of water and air, the nozzles each having a basic nozzle body with a water inlet and one Air inlet opening, one in the nozzle body screw-in nozzle insert for fastening on the bathtub side the nozzle and a nozzle cap connected to the nozzle insert with a plurality of air outlet openings and have separate water outlet openings.
  • Nozzles of the construction described which are also known as whirl nozzles are known from EP-A 1 022 011.
  • the Water inlet opening is at the bottom of the nozzle insert arranged.
  • the air supply takes place at the known version laterally.
  • the entry openings for Water and air are in the chambers of the nozzle body Connection to which supply lines are connected.
  • to Generating a bubble bath are several such nozzles required in openings in the tub floor of a sanitary tub be used.
  • To supply the nozzles with Water and air are complex piping from pipe sections and fittings on the underside of the sanitary tub required.
  • the assembly is complex. With one not Properly executed assembly is after a bubble bath furthermore, a complete drainage of residual water is not guaranteed. Water residues in the piping are under bacteriological Viewpoint not acceptable.
  • the invention has for its object a device to create a bubble bath in a sanitary tub indicate which is characterized by a short and good emptying pipe connection between the nozzles.
  • the task is done with a device with the input Features described according to the invention solved by a extruded plastic profile, the two arranged in parallel and channels extending in the longitudinal direction of the profile for the separate supply of air and water, whereby the nozzle body is attached to the plastic profile and are the water and air inlet openings the nozzle body next to each other on an end face of the nozzle body are arranged and by Holes in the connection surface of the plastic profile with associated with the assigned channel.
  • the invention are those embedded in the floor of a sanitary tub Nozzles directly to the channels for the Air and water supply connected.
  • the canals are part of a straight produced by extrusion Plastic profile that is easy to handle and assemble is.
  • the number of at the top of the plastic profile attached nozzles can suit the application be determined.
  • the device can be varied be matched to the size of the sanitary tub.
  • the invention has the plastic profile on the upper side a flat flange surface on which the nozzle body is attached.
  • the nozzle body can be welded, glued or with the plastic profile detachable to the plastic profile by screw or clip connections be connected.
  • the invention teaches that the channels drain holes for have a residual water drain, and that on the bottom of the plastic profile drain lines flanged are connected to the drain holes.
  • the Connection elements of the drain lines are based on the shape of the Adjusted plastic profile and can be detachable or non-detachable be connected to the plastic profile.
  • the drain pipes are aligned with a sufficient gradient, so that there are no water residues in the drain pipes can form.
  • the arrangement according to the invention enables a simple one constructive structure of the nozzles.
  • a preferred Execution is in the longitudinal axis of the nozzle body Water channel arranged that extends up to the nozzle cap extends.
  • the water channel can be made in one piece on the nozzle body molded or as a separate piece of pipe, the sealed against the nozzle body by a seal is to be executed.
  • the nozzle insert is in one the annular space surrounding the water channel, the Nozzle insert and the water channel create an annular gap for the Limit air passage.
  • the nozzle cap has an underside Spigot on in the annular gap between the nozzle insert and water channel can be used and the water-bearing Part of the nozzle from the air-carrying part of the nozzle separates. It is useful between the nozzle and the water channel a seal is arranged on the nozzle.
  • On the outer circumference of the grooves belonging to the nozzle cap are grooves as channels arranged for the air.
  • the Nozzle cap on water outlet openings from which the water directed radially outwards at an acute angle exit.
  • the nozzle cap also contains holes for the escaping air. These are outside the water outlet area evenly distributed so that the air hits the emerging water jets. At this Arrangement creates very fine air bubbles, which in a bubble bath is not only perceived as beneficial but also reduces noise emissions.
  • the device shown in the figures serves the Generation of a bubble bath in a sanitary tub.
  • she consists in its basic structure of several, in the bottom 1 of the sanitary tub used nozzles 2 and one extruded arranged at the bottom of the sanitary tub Plastic profile 3, the two arranged in parallel and channels 4, 5 extending in the longitudinal direction of the profile for contains the separate supply of air and water (Fig. 1).
  • the nozzles 1 each have one Nozzle base body 6 with a water inlet opening 7 and an air inlet opening 8, one in the nozzle body 6 screw-in nozzle insert 9 for fastening on the bathtub side the nozzle and one connected to the nozzle insert 9
  • Nozzle cap 10 with a plurality of air outlet openings 11 and separate water outlet openings 12 have.
  • the nozzle body 6 is on the plastic profile 3 attached, at least for this purpose has a flat flange surface on the top.
  • the water as well Air inlet openings 7, 8 of the nozzle body are next to each other on an end face of the nozzle body 6 arranged and are through holes in the Terminal area of the plastic profile 3 with the associated Channel 5, 4 in connection.
  • nozzle body 6 by welding or Adhesive connection permanently connected to the plastic profile 3.
  • Fig. 3 is a releasable connection between the Nozzle body 6 and the plastic profile 3 indicated, the z. B. as a screw connection or as a clip connection can be executed.
  • the z. B. as a screw connection or as a clip connection can be executed.
  • With a detachable connection between the nozzle body 6 and the flange surface of the Plastic profile 3 seals 13 arranged.
  • a on the underside of the nozzle body 6 Provide extension 14 which in the associated bore of Plastic profile 3 engages as a centering. This allows Assembly errors can be avoided.
  • the channels 4, 5 of the plastic profile 3 have undersides Drain holes 15, 15 'for a residual water drain. Drain pipes are on the underside of the plastic profile 3 16 flanged in connection with the drain holes stand. 4 is on the drain lines 16 connected a fitting 17, the can be clipped onto the plastic profile 3.
  • a water channel 18 is arranged, which extends up to Nozzle cap 10 extends.
  • the nozzle insert 9 is in one arranged around the water channel 18 annular space, the Nozzle insert 9 and the water channel 18 an annular gap 19 for limit the passage of air.
  • the nozzle cap 10 has one underside connector 20, which in the annular gap 19 between Nozzle insert 9 and water channel 18 can be used and the water-carrying part of the nozzle from the air-carrying Part of the nozzle separates.
  • a comparative analysis of the 2 and 5 it can be seen that on the outer circumference of the nozzle Grooves 21 are provided as channels for the passage of air.
  • a seal 22 is also arranged.
  • the design of the nozzle cap 10 is in particular the Fig. 5 and 6 removable.
  • the nozzle cap 10 has water outlet openings 12, from which the water under one acute angle emerges radially outward. Outside of the water outlet area are the air outlet openings 11 evenly distributed so that the Air hits the emerging water jets. This creates small air bubbles.
