  • the invention relates more particularly to an element of plumbing connection, of a type that includes at least one body substantially tubular oriented in a first direction axial axis, of which a first free end has a first connection port, of which a second free end opposite has a second connection port, and of the type in which a valve is interposed in the tubular body between the first and second connecting ports, of the type which has a tubular section, articulated with respect to the body around at least a second secant axial direction to the first general direction of the body, whose free end forms the second free end of the connecting element, to allow the connection of the second orifice following at least one direction different from the general axial direction of the body, of the type in wherein the tubular section has an intermediate end articulation, opposite to its free end, which is provided with a annular flange of which a transverse face is mounted rotating in contact with a transverse face of a collar complementary ring which is carried by one end of body articulation.
  • connection elements are known from plumbing of this type.
  • EP-A1-0.429.292 describes and represents a water meter and shut-off valve system including telescopic tubular elements oriented according to a first axial direction.
  • An outer tube is intended to accommodate one of its ends a housing for receiving a block comprising a body for receiving a water meter assembly and a check valve.
  • the body is made in two parts.
  • a part has a first pipe that has a first port of connection, and the other part has a second pipe that has a second connection port. Every pipe is articulated with respect to the block around at least a second axial direction secant to the general direction of the block.
  • each pipe has a hinge section which penetrates in a rotating manner into a hinge section of each part associated with the block.
  • each section each pipe has a flange, one of which transverse face is in plane support on a face of a collar articulation section of the associated part.
  • the collar has a cylindrical scope that is received in a scope cylindrical projecting from the transverse face of the flange of the associated block portion, and staves cylindrical are immobilized externally by a ring of independent maintenance.
  • the two pipes are arranged at the same end of the water meter and stopcock system, and so are very close to each other this system being intended to serve of water meter being interposed in a facility already existing.
  • the invention proposes a element specifically intended for the connection of plumbing of the type previously described.
  • the invention as defined by appended claim 1 proposes a connecting element of plumbing of the type previously described with an annular flange of the intermediate end of articulation of the tubular section which comprises an annular groove which opens into its transverse face and is intended for receive a complementary tubular portion projecting from from the transverse face of the annular collar carried by the hinge end of the body.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show two modes of realization of a plumbing fitting element 10.
  • Plumbing fitting element 10 has at least one substantially tubular body 12 oriented in a first general axial direction A.
  • the element 10 has a first tubular free end 14 which comprises a first connection orifice 16, and it comprises a second free end 18 opposite which comprises a second connection port 20.
  • tubular free end 14 is example tapped internally so as to allow the screwing a conventional threaded conduit into plumbing.
  • tubular free end 18 is for example threaded externally so as to allow its screwing in a conventional threaded duct in plumbing.
  • the first orifice 16 is for example a conduit of water outlet and the second conduit 20 is for example a conduit water supply.
  • the first tubular free end 14 is example bent at a right angle so as to allow the connecting the first port to the back of a sanitary element such than a urinal.
  • a valve 22 is interposed in the tubular body 12 between the first and second ports 16, 18 of connection.
  • the valve 22 is for example consisting of an all-or-nothing solenoid valve, in particular a conventional solenoid valve including an internal drawer (no shown) is actuated by a solenoid whose opening is controlled by an electronic module associated with a sensor optical (not shown).
  • the electronic module is powered by battery or by sector.
  • the connecting element 10 of plumbing comprises a tubular section 24 articulated relative to at the body 12 around at least a second axial direction B secante at the first general direction A of the body 12, whose the free end forms the second free end 18 of the element 12 of connection, to allow the connection of the second orifice 20 following at least one direction C different from the direction axial A general of the body 12.
  • the tubular section 24 is rectilinear and is articulated around a second axial direction B which is perpendicular to the first general direction A of the body 12.
  • the tubular section 24 thus allows the connecting the second orifice 20 perpendicular to the axial direction A general of the body 12.
  • the tubular section 24 is bent at a right angle, and it is articulated around a second axial direction B which is perpendicular to the first direction of the body 12.
  • the direction C of the second orifice 20 being perpendicular to the articulation direction B, the tubular section 24 allows, depending on the angular position of his articulation, the connection of the next second orifice 20 to the minus a direction C located in a plane parallel to the direction axial A general of the body 12.
  • tubular section 24 associated with the first embodiment and the tubular section 24 associated with the second embodiment are interchangeable.
  • the direction C of the second orifice 20 may not be perpendicular to the articulation direction B but form a acute angle or obtuate determined with it.
  • the tubular section 24 has an intermediate hinge end 26, opposite its free end 18, which is provided with a collar 28 annular including a transverse face 30 is rotatably mounted in contact with a transverse face 32 of an annular flange 34 complementary which is carried by one end 36 of articulation of the body 12.
  • the intermediate end 26 of articulation mounted rotating around the B axis perpendicular to the first axial direction A general body, allows the articulation of the tubular section 24.
  • annular flange 28 of the intermediate end 26 of articulation of the tubular section 24 has an annular groove 38 which opens into its face transverse 30 and which is intended to receive a portion tubular 40 complementary projecting from the face transverse 32 of the annular collar 34 carried by the end 36 of articulation of the body 12.
  • the connecting element 12 comprises means clamping the annular flanges 28 and 34 against each other, especially to ensure a good seal of the element of connector 12 when traversed by a stream of water.
  • the connecting element 12 also comprises means angular immobilization of the annular flanges 28, 34 one relative to each other, and means for indexing the position angle of the annular flanges 28, 34 with respect to the other.
  • This arrangement is particularly advantageous since it allows, especially in the context of the second mode implementation shown in Figure 2, to implement position accurately the tubular section 24 relative to the 12 and maintain it in that position, before ensuring sealing of the connecting element 12 by means of Tightening.
  • the means of immobilization, indexing, and clamping consist of at least two screws (no represented) angularly distributed at regular intervals through the annular flanges 28, 34.
  • the annular flange 34 comprises for example four holes 42 angularly distributed at 90 degrees from each other, and which are intended to receive screws (not shown) that can be screwed into four corresponding holes (not shown) of the collar annular 28.
  • This configuration is more particularly advantageous, since it allows, in the context of the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 to 6, to orient the tubular section 24 according to four different positions shown in Figures 3 to 6.
  • the direction C of the orifice 20 can be oriented in two opposite positions, shown in Figures 3 and 5, which are parallel to the direction general A of the body 12, or following two according to two positions opposites shown in Figures 4 and 6, which are perpendicular to the general direction A of the body 12, according to initial position of assembly of the tubular section 24.
  • the body 12 comprises, upstream of the solenoid valve 22, a filter (no shown) which is interposed between its articulation end and the valve 22.
  • the filter is for example housed in a bore 44 which is formed in a boss 46 integral with the body 12, which is closed by a plug 48, and which communicates with the solenoid valve 22.
  • the body 12 includes a flow control valve which is interposed between its hinge end 36 and the filter which is housed in the bore 44.
  • the valve is for example formed of a needle which is received in a bore 50 that communicates with the bore 44.
  • the element 10 can be attached to at least one support outside on the one hand by means of screws (not shown) traversing pierces 52 ears 54 which extend radially from the first free end 14 and other through screws (not shown) passing through holes 56 of ears 58 of a collar 60 mounted around the section tubular 24.
  • the invention therefore makes it possible to have an element of Plumbing fitting that can be adapted to many mounting configuration.
