Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Ablaufgarnitur, insbesondere für eine Wanne mit Whirlpool nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The present invention relates to a waste fitting, in particular for a Tub with whirlpool according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es wurden im Stand der Technik bereits Ablaufgarnituren vorgeschlagen, bei denen sowohl ein an einer Wanne montierbarer Ablauf als auch ein weiterer Anschluss für die Ableitung von Flüssigkeit vorgesehen sind. Diese münden in einen Topf mit siphonartiger Umleitung, der dann mit einem Abflussrohr verbunden wird. Der weitere Anschluss kann beispielsweise an einen Zirkulationskreislauf angeschlossen sein, wie dies bei Whirlpools der Fall ist. Bei solchen Ablaufgarnituren soll für eine Benutzung gleichzeitig der Ablauf an der Wanne als auch der weitere Anschluss verschlossen werden, und nach Benutzung sollen zur Entleerung des Zirkulationskreislaufes und der Wanne der Ablauf und der weitere Anschluss wieder geöffnet werden. Hierfür wurde eine Betätigungsmechanik eingesetzt, bei der über eine Kupplung ein Bowdenzug in zwei Bowdenzüge aufgeteilt wird, um mit jeweils einem Bowdenzug das Ventil am Ablauf und mit dem zweiten Bowdenzug ein Verschlusselement an dem weiteren Anschluss zu betätigen. Diese Konstruktion ist relativ aufwendig, da eine Vielzahl von Bauteilen erforderlich ist. Expiration sets have already been proposed in the prior art in which Both a drainable on a tub drain and another connection are provided for the discharge of liquid. These lead into one Pot with siphon-like diversion, which is then connected to a drainpipe becomes. The further connection can, for example, to a circulation circuit be connected, as is the case with whirlpools. With such waste sets should for a use at the same time the drain on the tub and the further connection should be closed, and after use should be for emptying of circulation circuit and tub the drain and the other connection be opened again. For this purpose, an actuating mechanism was used in which is split over a clutch a Bowden cable into two Bowden cables to each with a Bowden cable the valve on the drain and with the second Bowden cable to operate a closure element at the other terminal. These Construction is relatively expensive, since a large number of components is required.

Ferner besteht der Nachteil darin, dass eine individuelle Einstellung der Verschlusselemente schwierig ist.Furthermore, the disadvantage is that an individual adjustment of the closure elements difficult.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Ablaufgarnitur der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, bei der eine einfache Verschlussmöglichkeit für einen Ablauf und einen weiteren Anschluss bereitgestellt wird und die eine kompakte Bauweise besitzt.It is therefore an object of the present invention, a waste set the beginning to provide said type, in which a simple closure option for a Procedure and another connection is provided and the one compact Has construction.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit einer Ablaufgarnitur mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with a waste set with the features of the claim 1 solved.

Erfindungsgemäß weist die Betätigungseinheit ein Betätigungselement zur gleichzeitigen Betätigung des Ventils am Ablauf und des Verschlusselementes an dem weiteren Anschluss auf. Dadurch wird die Anzahl der erforderlichen Bauteile reduziert, da die Kupplung zur getrennten Betätigung des Verschlusselementes und des Ventils entfallen kann und das Betätigungselement die Funktion dieser Kupplung übernimmt und keine getrennten Betätigungselemente vorgesehen werden müssen. Ferner lässt sich die Ablaufgarnitur kompakt ausführen, da durch das Betätigungselement sowohl das Ventil als auch das Verschlusselement benachbart zueinander angeordnet sein können, um gleichzeitig betätigt zu werden.According to the invention, the actuating unit has an actuating element for simultaneous Actuation of the valve on the drain and the closure element on the further connection. This reduces the number of required components, because the clutch for separate actuation of the closure element and the Valve can be omitted and the actuator, the function of this coupling takes over and no separate actuators must be provided. Furthermore, the waste set can be made compact, since by the actuator both the valve and the closure element adjacent to each other may be arranged to be operated simultaneously.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist das Betätigungselement als drehbar gelagerter Bolzen ausgebildet. Dies ermöglicht eine einfache Umsetzung einer mechanischen Lösung für das Betätigungselement. Dabei kann an dem Bolzen ein Hebel vorgesehen sein, der mittels eines Zugelementes bewegbar ist. Meist werden entsprechende Betätigungseinrichtungen an einem Überlauf angeordnet und sind mit einem Bowdenzug ausgerüstet, der dann an dem Hebel angreifen kann.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the actuating element designed as a rotatably mounted bolt. This allows a simple implementation a mechanical solution for the actuator. It can at the bolt may be provided with a lever which is movable by means of a tension element is. Most appropriate controls are placed on an overflow and are equipped with a Bowden cable, which then attack the lever can.

Ein konstruktiv einfacher Verschluss mit nur wenigen Bauteilen wird erhalten, wenn der Bolzen an einem Ende ein Drehventil trägt, in dem ein mit dem Anschluss verbindbarer Durchflusskanal ausgebildet ist. Dadurch greift das Betätigungselement direkt an dem Drehventil an, so dass keine zusätzlichen Elemente vorgesehen werden müssen. Für eine leichte Betätigung ist das Drehventil vorzugsweise in einem Dichtelement drehbar gelagert, das in der Ablaufgarnitur festgelegt ist. Für eine einfache Montage kann dabei das Drehventil drehfest auf den Bolzen aufgesteckt werden. Die Abdichtung an dem Drehventil kann dabei derart erfolgen, dass das Drehventil einen in axialer Richtung des Bolzens angeordneten Einlass und einen in Radialrichtung angeordneten Auslass aufweist, wobei der Auslass einer bodenseitig angeordneten Öffnung im Ventil gegenüberliegt. Dadurch fließt ein Fluid automatisch bei einer entsprechenden Drehung des Drehventils nach unten ab.A structurally simple closure with only a few components is obtained when the bolt carries at one end a rotary valve in which one with the connector connectable flow channel is formed. As a result, the actuating element engages directly on the rotary valve, leaving no additional elements must be provided. For easy operation, the rotary valve is preferable rotatably mounted in a sealing element, set in the pop-up waste is. For a simple assembly while the rotary valve rotatably on the Pin to be plugged. The seal on the rotary valve can be such take place that the rotary valve arranged in the axial direction of the bolt Inlet and a radially arranged outlet, wherein the Outlet of a bottom-side opening in the valve is opposite. Thereby a fluid flows automatically with a corresponding rotation of the rotary valve down from.

An dem Bolzen kann ferner ein Hebel festgelegt sein, mittels dem das Ventil am Ablauf betätigbar ist. Durch Drehung des Bolzens lässt sich das Ventil über den Hebel linear verschieben.On the bolt may further be fixed a lever by means of which the valve on Sequence is actuated. By turning the bolt, the valve can be over the Move lever linearly.

Für eine einfache Herstellung der Ablaufgarnitur sind Bolzen und/oder entsprechende Gehäuseteile aus Kunststoff hergestellt. Dabei kann die Ablaufgarnitur mehrteilig ausgebildet sein und ein Ablauftopf und mindestens ein Durchflusselement aufweisen. Dies ermöglicht auch die Herstellung komplizierterer Formen der Ablaufgarnitur.For a simple production of the waste fitting bolts and / or corresponding Housing parts made of plastic. Here, the waste set be formed in several parts and a drain pot and at least one flow element exhibit. This also allows the production of more complicated forms of Waste.

Der Ablauftopf 33 umfasst eine siphonartige Krümmung 41, die in einen Rohrabschnitt 34 mündet, der mit einem Ablaufrohr verbindbar ist. Die siphonartige Umlenkung 41 sorgt für einen Geruchsverschluss.The drain fitting has a multi-part housing made of plastic a drain pot 33, on which the flow element 10 is fixed sealed. The flow element 10 is by means of a latching connection in the drain pot 33 plugged. The drain pot 33 comprises a siphon-like curve 41, which in a pipe section 34 opens, which is connectable to a drain pipe. The siphon-like Diverter 41 provides an odor trap.

Ferner ist an dem Durchflusselement 10 ein Anschluss 11 vorgesehen, der über eine Mutter 12 ein Rohr 13 zu einem Überlauf klemmend festlegt. Das Rohr 13 ist über einen Bogen mit einem Rohr 14 verbunden, das mit einem Überlaufelement 15 in Verbindung steht. Das Überlaufelement 15 ist an der Öffnung 16 der Wanne 1 festgelegt, die optisch durch einen Drehknopf 17 verdeckt ist. Bei entsprechendem Füllstand kann ein Fluid aus der Wanne 1 durch das Überlaufelement 15 durch das Rohr 13 abströmen.Further, a connection 11 is provided on the flow element 10, which has a Nut 12 defines a tube 13 to an overflow clamping. The tube 13 is connected via a bow with a pipe 14, which is provided with an overflow element 15 communicates.

Für eine Betätigung des Ventils 4 wird der Drehknopf 17 gedreht, der über einen nicht näher dargestellten Bowdenzug mit einem drehbaren Bolzen 20 verbunden ist. Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich ist, umfasst der Bolzen 20 einen Hebel 19, der mit dem Bowdenzug verbunden ist. Der Bolzen 20 ist dabei in eine Richtung entgegen der Zugbelastung hin vorgespannt, so dass mittels des Drehknopfes 17 der Bolzen 20 in beide Richtungen drehbar ist.For actuation of the valve 4, the knob 17 is rotated, which has a Bowden cable not shown connected to a rotatable pin 20 is. As is apparent from Fig. 2, the bolt 20 comprises a lever 19, which with the Bowden cable is connected. The bolt 20 is opposite in one direction biased towards the tensile load, so that by means of the knob 17 of the bolt 20 is rotatable in both directions.

In dem Bolzen 20 ist eine Aussparung 21 vorgesehen, in der ein Halteabschnitt eines Hebels 24 festgelegt ist. Der Hebel 24 liegt an der Unterseite der Schraube 8 an, so dass durch Drehung des Bolzens 20 das Ventil 4 abgesenkt und angehoben werden kann, um den Ablauf 3 zu öffnen und zu schließen.In the bolt 20, a recess 21 is provided, in which a holding portion of a Lever 24 is fixed. The lever 24 is located on the underside of the screw eighth on, so that by rotation of the bolt 20, the valve 4 is lowered and raised can be to open the flow 3 and close.

Ferner ist an dem Bolzen 20 ein verjüngter Abschnitt 22 ausgebildet, an dem hervorstehende Leisten 32 angeformt sind. Auf den Abschnitt 22 ist ein Drehventil 23 aufgesteckt, das benachbart zu einem weiteren Anschluss 26 montiert ist. Der Anschluss 26 ist mit einem zirkulierenden Leitungssystem verbunden, bei dem über eine Pumpe Wasser aus der Wanne 1 abgesaugt und durch ein oder mehrere Düsen in die Wand rückgeführt wird, insbesondere zu Massagezwecken, gegebenenfalls auch mit Luft angereichert.Further, a tapered portion 22 is formed on the bolt 20, on which protruding Moldings 32 are formed. On the section 22 is a rotary valve 23rd attached, which is mounted adjacent to another terminal 26. The connection 26 is connected to a circulating piping system in which over a pump sucked water from the tub 1 and through one or more nozzles is returned to the wall, in particular for massage purposes, if necessary also enriched with air.

Das Drehventil 23 ist drehbar in einer Dichtung 25 gehalten, die über Vorsprünge 36 in Nuten an dem Durchflusselement 10 eingreift und somit drehfest gelagert ist. Die Dichtung 25 ist in einem unteren Bereich mit einer Aussparung 35 versehen, die mit einem Abflusskanal 29 in dem Durchflusselement 10 fluchtet.The rotary valve 23 is rotatably held in a seal 25, which has projections 36 engages in grooves on the flow element 10 and thus rotatably mounted. The seal 25 is provided in a lower region with a recess 35, which is aligned with a drain channel 29 in the flow element 10.

Ferner ist an dem Anschluss 26 eine Tülle 27 über einen Haltering 28 festgelegt, der mit dem zirkulierenden System verbunden ist. Das Drehventil 25 besitzt einen in axialer Richtung des Bolzens 20 angeordneten Einlass 30 und einen in radialer Richtung des Drehventils 23 angeordneten Auslass 40. Das Drehventil 25 ist dabei topfförmig ausgebildet und umfasst eine Aufnahme 37 mit Nuten 38 für den Eingriff mit dem verjüngten Abschnitt 22 des Bolzens 20. Ferner ist in dem Drehventil 25 ein Schlitz 39 ausgespart, so dass die Wände des Drehventils 23 eine gewisse Elastizität besitzen und das Drehventil 23 mit leichtem Presssitz auf den Abschnitt 22 aufgeschoben werden kann. Furthermore, a grommet 27 is fixed on the connection 26 via a retaining ring 28, which is connected to the circulating system. The rotary valve 25 has a in the axial direction of the bolt 20 arranged inlet 30 and one in radial Direction of the rotary valve 23 arranged outlet 40. The rotary valve 25 is thereby cup-shaped and includes a receptacle 37 with grooves 38 for engagement with the tapered portion 22 of the bolt 20. Further, in the rotary valve 25 a slot 39 recessed, so that the walls of the rotary valve 23 a certain Have elasticity and the rotary valve 23 with a slight interference fit on the section 22 can be postponed.

Mittels dem Bolzen 20 können somit das Ventil 4 als auch das Drehventil 23 bewegt werden. Durch Drehung des Bolzens 20 aus der in Fig. 1 gezeigten Position wird der Hebel 24 nach unten bewegt, und das Ventil schließt über die Dichtung 6 den Ablauf 3. Ferner wird das Drehventil 23 in eine Position gebracht, in der die Öffnung 35 der Dichtung 25 beabstandet von dem Auslass 40 des Drehventils 23 ist, wie dies in Fig. 5 gezeigt ist. In dieser Position ist sowohl das Ventil 4 als auch der Anschluss 26 verschlossen.By means of the bolt 20 thus the valve 4 and the rotary valve 23 can be moved become. By rotation of the bolt 20 from the position shown in Fig. 1 the lever 24 is moved downwards and the valve closes over the seal 6 the drain 3. Further, the rotary valve 23 is brought into a position in which the Opening 35 of the seal 25 spaced from the outlet 40 of the rotary valve 23rd is as shown in Fig. 5. In this position, both the valve 4 and the connection 26 closed.

Zum Öffnen wird der Bolzen 20 wieder gedreht und der Hebel 24 angehoben, so dass das Ventil 4 den Ablauf 3 freigibt. Gleichzeitig bewegt sich das Drehventil 23 und bildet einen Kanal vom Einlass 30 zum Auslass 40, der in der Öffnung 35 der Dichtung 25 mündet. Dadurch kann auch das Fluid aus dem Zirkulationskreislauf in das Durchflusselement 10 abströmen.To open the bolt 20 is rotated again and the lever 24 is raised, so the valve 4 releases the drain 3. At the same time, the rotary valve 23 moves and forms a channel from the inlet 30 to the outlet 40, which in the opening 35 of the Seal 25 opens. As a result, the fluid from the circulation circuit flow into the flow element 10.

In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind der Ablauftopf 33, das Durchflusselement 10 sowie der Bolzen 20 und das Drehventil 23 aus Kunststoff ausgebildet. Je nach Bedarf können auch andere Werkstoffe zum Einsatz kommen.In the illustrated embodiment, the drain pot 33, the flow element 10 and the bolt 20 and the rotary valve 23 formed of plastic. Depending on requirements, other materials can be used.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ablaufgarnitur ist für jeden Anwendungsfall geeignet, bei dem mittels eines Betätigungselementes zwei Anschlüsse gleichzeitig verschlossen werden müssen, beispielsweise bei Whirlpools. Ein Überlauf ist nicht zwingend notwendig, allerdings für den Einsatzzweck an einer Wanne 1 zweckmäßig. Die mechanische Betätigung über den Drehknopf 17 ist nur eine von vielen Möglichkeiten, über einen Verstellmechanismus das Betätigungselement zu bewegen. Auch andere Mechaniken wie Gestänge, Ketten etc. können eingesetzt werden.The waste set according to the invention is suitable for any application, in the two ports simultaneously closed by means of an actuating element need to be, for example, in whirlpools. An overflow is not mandatory necessary, but appropriate for use on a tub 1. The mechanical operation via the knob 17 is just one of many ways to move the actuator via an adjustment mechanism. Also other mechanisms such as linkages, chains, etc. can be used.

Das gezeigte Drehventil 23 ermöglicht auf einfache Weise den Verschluss des Anschlusses 26. Allerdings können statt des Drehventils 23 auch andere Ventile, beispielsweise mit Stopfen zum Einsatz kommen, die über den Bolzen 20 bewegbar sind.The illustrated rotary valve 23 allows a simple way the closure of the terminal 26.
