Beschreibung description
Brausehaltershower holder
Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Anordnung, bei der ein Brausekopf, gegebenenfalls abnehmbar, schwenkbar gelagert ist.The invention is based on an arrangement in which a shower head, optionally removable, is pivotally mounted.
Es ist allgemein bekannt, dass man Handbrausen beispielsweise mit Hilfe von Konushaltern schwenkbar an einer Konsole anbringen kann, die üblicherweise mit Hilfe einer Wandstange in der Höhe verstellbar ist. Durch die Wandstange kann eine Anpassung an unterschiedliche Körpergrößen erfolgen, und durch die Verschwenkung kann der Abstrahlwinkel des Brausekopfs verändert werden.It is generally known that hand showers can be pivotably attached to a console, for example with the aid of cone holders, the height of which can usually be adjusted using a wall bar. The wall bar can be adapted to different body sizes, and the pivoting angle of the shower head can be changed by pivoting.
Es ist auch schon eine Brausevorrichtung bekannt, bei der ein schwenkbarer Brausekopf im Bereich des vorderen Endes eines Wandarms befestigt ist, der seinerseits schwenkbar an einer Konsole angebracht ist. Die Wasserzufuhr zu diesem Brausekopf geschieht durch den als Hohlprofil ausgebildeten Wandarm (DE 100 48 987).A shower device is also known in which a pivotable shower head is fastened in the region of the front end of a wall arm, which in turn is pivotably attached to a console. The water supply to this shower head occurs through the wall arm designed as a hollow profile (DE 100 48 987).
Weiterhin bekannt ist eine Brauseanordnung (SE 95 879), bei der am vorderen Ende eines verschiebbaren Wandarms eine Aufnahme zum Einstecken des Griffs einer Handbrause angeordnet ist. Der Wandarm weist etwa in der Mitte seiner Längserstreckung ein Gelenk auf.Also known is a shower arrangement (SE 95 879) in which a receptacle for inserting the handle of a hand shower is arranged at the front end of a displaceable wall arm. The wall arm has a joint approximately in the middle of its longitudinal extent.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Brauseanordnung zu schaffen, die bei einfachem Aufbau erweiterte Benutzungsmöglichkeiten bietet. Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung einen Brausehalter mit den im Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmalen vor. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.The invention is based on the object of providing a shower arrangement which, with a simple structure, offers extended possibilities of use. To achieve this object, the invention proposes a shower holder with the features mentioned in claim 1. Developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass der von dem Anbringungsbauteil abragende Wandarm schwenkbar an dem Anbringungsbauteil gelagert und die im Bereich des dem Anbringungsbauteil entgegengesetzten Endes des Wandarms angebrachte Halterung für den Brausekopf schwenkbar an dem Wandarm gelagert ist. Durch die Anordnung zweier Schwenklagerungen lässt sich die Orientierung der Abstrahlrichtung des Brausekopfs in stärkerem Maße auf die Wünsche des Benutzers einstellen. Je nach der Länge des Wandarms ist es auch nicht mehr erforderlich, obwohl dies selbstverständlich auch noch möglich ist, das Anbringungsbauteil mit Hilfe einer Wandstange in der Höhe verschieben zu können.In a further development of the invention, it can be provided that the wall arm projecting from the attachment component is pivotably mounted on the attachment component and the holder for the shower head, which is attached in the region of the end of the wall arm opposite the attachment component, is pivotably mounted on the wall arm. By arranging two swivel bearings, the orientation of the radiation direction of the shower head can be adjusted to a greater extent to the wishes of the user. Depending on the length of the wall arm, it is no longer necessary, although this is of course also possible to be able to move the mounting component in height with the help of a wall bar.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Achse, um die die Halterung für den Brausekopf verschwenkbar ist, quer zur Längsachse des Wandarms verläuft. Der Wandarm braucht zwar nicht geradlinig zu verlaufen, jedoch kann man von einer ungefähren Längsachse des Wandarms ausgehen, der gegenüber die Schwenkachse für den Brausekopf eben quer verläuft.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the axis about which the holder for the shower head can be pivoted runs transversely to the longitudinal axis of the wall arm. The wall arm does not need to run in a straight line, but one can assume an approximate longitudinal axis of the wall arm, which is transverse to the pivot axis for the shower head.
Die Schwenkachse in dem Anbringungsbauteil zur Lagerung des Wandarms kann in beliebigen Richtungen verlaufen. Besonders sinnvoll ist es jedoch, wenn sie parallel zu einer Wandoberfläche verläuft, an der das Anbringungsbauteil angebracht ist. Es braucht sich dabei nicht um eine Wand des Badezimmers zu handeln, sondern kann auch irgendeine andere senkrecht verlaufende Fläche einer Duschzelle oder dergleichen sein. Selbstverständlich ist auch noch zusätzlich eine Anbringung mit Hilfe einer vertikal oder horizontal verlaufenden Schiene möglich. In nochmaliger Weiterbildung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Schwenkachse zwischen dem Anbringungsbauteil und dem Wandarm horizontal verläuft.The pivot axis in the mounting component for mounting the wall arm can run in any direction. However, it is particularly useful if it runs parallel to a wall surface to which the attachment component is attached. It does not have to be a wall of the bathroom, but can also be any other vertical surface of a shower cubicle or the like. Of course, an attachment using a vertical or horizontal rail is also possible. In a further development it can be provided that the swivel axis between the attachment component and the wall arm runs horizontally.
Besonders sinnvoll ist es, wenn die beiden Schwenkachsen parallel zueinander verlaufen. Dann kann beispielsweise beim Hochschwenken des Wandarms die Halterung für den Brausekopf in umgekehrter Richtung verschwenkt werden, um den Abstrahlwinkel beizubehalten. Aus diesem Grunde kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass der maximale Schwenkwinkel der Halterung für den Brausekopf gegenüber dem Wandarm mindestens so groß wie der maximale Schwenkwinkel des Wandarms gegenüber dem Anbringungsbauteil ist.It is particularly useful if the two swivel axes run parallel to one another. Then, for example, when the wall arm is swiveled up, the holder for the shower head can be pivoted in the opposite direction in order to maintain the radiation angle. For this reason it can also be provided that the maximum pivoting angle of the holder for the shower head with respect to the wall arm is at least as large as the maximum pivoting angle of the wall arm with respect to the mounting component.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Wandarm mindestens im Bereich seines freien Endes gegabelt ausgebildet ist. Dann kann die Halterung für den Brausekopf zwischen den beiden Armen der Gabel angeordnet sein.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the wall arm is forked at least in the area of its free end. Then the holder for the shower head can be arranged between the two arms of the fork.
Beispielsweise kann die Gabelung des Wandarms etwa in der Mitte seiner Längserstreckung beginnen.For example, the fork of the wall arm can begin approximately in the middle of its longitudinal extent.
In nochmaliger Weiterbildung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Schwenkachse der Halterung für den Brausekopf etwa durch die Mitte des Brausekopfgehäuses geht. Dies führt dazu, dass bei einer Verschwenkung des Brausekopfs sich nur die Abstrahlrichtung endet, nicht aber die absolute Position des Brausekopfgehäuses.In a further development it can be provided that the pivot axis of the holder for the shower head goes approximately through the center of the shower head housing. This means that when the shower head is pivoted, only the direction of radiation ends, but not the absolute position of the shower head housing.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Halterung für den Brausekopf (8) zum Angriff an einer nicht erkennbar zur Halterung vorgesehenen Stelle des Gehäuses des Brausekopfs (8) ausgebildet ist und in Löse- bzw. Einschiebrichtung durch Kraftschluss wirkt. Dadurch wird es möglich, einen Brausekopf mit dem Brausehalter zu verbinden, wobei der Halter nicht mit einer an dem Handbrausegriff angreifenden Einrichtung verbunden sein muss. Insbesondere kann man dem Brausekopf nicht ansehen, dass er zur Verbindung mit einem Wandhalter bestimmt und geeignet ist. Der Designer ist daher wesentlich freier in den Möglichkeiten des Entwurfs des Brausekopfes bzw. seines Gehäuses.In a further development of the invention, it can be provided that the holder for the shower head (8) is designed to engage at a location on the housing of the shower head (8) that is not recognizable as a holder and acts in the release or insertion direction by force-locking. This makes it possible to connect a shower head to the shower holder, the holder not having to be connected to a device engaging the hand shower handle. In particular, it cannot be seen from the shower head that it is intended and suitable for connection to a wall bracket. The designer is therefore much freer in the possibilities of designing the shower head or its housing.
Insbesondere kann die Halterung derart ausgebildet sein, dass sie am Außenumfang des Brausekopfgehäuses angreift.In particular, the holder can be designed such that it engages on the outer circumference of the shower head housing.
Insbesondere soll die Halterung derart ausgebildet sein, dass sie zum Angriff an einer nicht an der Form erkennbar zur Halterung vorgesehenen Stelle des Gehäuses des Brausekopfes ausgebildet ist. Es ist auch denkbar, bestimmte Stellen des Gehäuses in ihrer Oberflächeneigenschaft zur Halterung auszubilden, ohne dass dadurch die Form beeinträchtigt wird. Damit kann man auch bei dieser weiteren Ausgestaltung an der Form des Brausekopfgehäuses nicht erkennen, dass diese Stelle zum Zusammenwirken mit der Halterung gedacht ist.In particular, the holder should be designed in such a way that it is designed to engage a position on the housing of the shower head that is not recognizable by the shape of the holder. It is also conceivable to design certain areas of the housing in terms of their surface properties for holding purposes, without the shape being adversely affected thereby. With this further configuration, it cannot be seen from the shape of the shower head housing that this point is intended to interact with the holder.
Die Erfindung schlägt in Weiterbildung vor, dass der Brausekopf nach Entnahme aus der Halterung funktionsfähig bleibt, so dass er sowohl in seinem Zustand der Verbindung mit dem Wandhalter als auch nach Abnahme vom Wandhalter als Brausekopf verwendet werden kann. Dies erhöht die Funktionseigenschaften deutlich.The invention proposes in a further development that the shower head remains functional after removal from the holder, so that it can be used as a shower head both in its state of connection to the wall bracket and after removal from the wall bracket. This significantly increases the functional properties.
Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Halterung starr an dem Wandarm angebracht ist. Es ist aber ebenfalls möglich und liegt im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass die Halterung zusammen mit dem eingesetzten Brausekopf um eine Achse quer zur Längsachse des Wandarms verschwenkbar ist. Dadurch kann eine Einstellung auf unterschiedliche Abstrahlwinkel ermöglicht werden. Die Anbringung des Brausehalters mit Hilfe des Anbringungsbauteils kann eine feste Anbringung sein, beispielsweise an einer Wand, einer Säule innerhalb einer Duschzelle, oder auch an einer Wandstange oder einem Wandprofil. In diesem Fall kann die Anbringung auch so sein, dass das Bauteil verschoben werden kann.According to the invention it can be provided that the holder is rigidly attached to the wall arm. However, it is also possible and within the scope of the invention that the holder, together with the shower head used, can be pivoted about an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the wall arm. This enables adjustment to different beam angles. The attachment of the shower holder with the aid of the attachment component can be a fixed attachment, for example on a wall, a column within a shower cell, or also on a wall bar or a wall profile. In this case, the attachment can also be such that the component can be moved.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Wandarm im Bereich seines dem Anbringungsbauteil zugeordneten Endes um eine Achse parallel zur Wand verschwenkbar ist. Dies kann zur Anpassung an unterschiedliche Körpergrößen dienen. Diese Achse kann horizontal liegen, sie kann auch drehbar um eine Achse senkrecht zur Wand sein.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the wall arm can be pivoted about an axis parallel to the wall in the region of its end assigned to the attachment component. This can be used to adapt to different body sizes. This axis can be horizontal, it can also be rotatable about an axis perpendicular to the wall.
Für den Fall, dass sowohl der Wandarm als auch die Halterung schwenkbar angeordnet sind, kann in Weiterbildung der Erfindung vor- gesehen sein, dass die beiden Schwenkachsen parallel zueinander verlaufen. Dann kann bei der Verschwenkung des Wandarms die Orientierung des eingesetzten Brausekopfes gegenläufig verändert werden, um dadurch die Änderung der Strahlrichtung auszugleichen.In the event that both the wall arm and the holder are pivotally arranged, it can be provided in a further development of the invention that the two pivot axes run parallel to one another. Then, when the wall arm is pivoted, the orientation of the shower head used can be changed in the opposite direction in order to compensate for the change in the jet direction.
Um eine besonders sinnvolle und trotz der nicht speziellen Anpassung des Brausekopfes an die Halterung zuverlässige Befestigung zu erreichen, kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass die Halterung an zwei einander diametral gegenüberliegenden Stellen des Gehäuses des Brausekopfes angreift.In order to achieve a particularly sensible and, despite the non-special adaptation of the shower head to the mounting, reliable attachment, it can be provided according to the invention that the mounting engages at two diametrically opposite points of the housing of the shower head.
Hierzu kann die Halterung Kontaktflächen aufweisen, beispielsweise zwei Backen aufweisen, die zum Angriff an dem Gehäuse des Brausekopfes ausgebildet sind. Es kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass die Backen bei eingesetztem Brausekopf mit einer Kraft aufeinander zu beaufschlagt sind. Diese Beaufschlagung kann durch das Einsetzen des Brausekopfes bewirkt werden.For this purpose, the holder can have contact surfaces, for example two jaws, which are designed to engage the housing of the shower head. It can be provided according to the invention that the jaws are acted upon by a force when the shower head is inserted. This can be caused by inserting the shower head.
In nochmaliger Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die beiden Backen der Halterung durch ein Element verbunden sind, welches eine Spannung aufweist, die die Kontaktflächen an den Brausekopf anlegen.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the two jaws of the holder are connected by an element which has a tension which the contact surfaces apply to the shower head.
Das Spannelement kann insbesondere derart ausgebildet sein, dass bei eingesetztem Brausekopf eine flächige Anlage zumindest in zwei Bereichen zwischen dem Spannelement und dem Brausekopfgehäuse gegeben ist. Dies kann sowohl durch eine Anpassung der Form des Spannelements an die Form des Gehäuses als auch durch eine flexible Ausgestaltung des Spannelements bewirkt werden.The tensioning element can in particular be designed such that when the shower head is inserted, there is a flat contact between the tensioning element and the shower head housing at least in two areas. This can be achieved both by adapting the shape of the tensioning element to the shape of the housing and by a flexible configuration of the tensioning element.
Es ist ebenfalls möglich, dass das Spann- bzw. Zugelement, das die Backen der Halterung verbindet, so ausgebildet ist, dass es das Brausekopfgehäuse an keiner Stelle berührt.It is also possible that the tensioning or pulling element, which connects the jaws of the holder, is designed such that it does not touch the shower head housing at any point.
Durch die Gabelung des Wandarms wird die Möglichkeit geschaffen, dass die Halterung zwischen den beiden Zinken der Gabel angeordnet ist.The fork of the wall arm creates the possibility that the holder is arranged between the two prongs of the fork.
Die Gabelung des Wandarms kann sich beispielsweise über die gesamte Länge des Wandarms erstrecken. Es ist aber ebenfalls möglich und wird von Erfindung bevorzugt, dass die Gabelung zwischen dem Anbringungsbauteil und dem freien Ende beginnt, vorzugsweise etwa in der Mitte der Längserstreckung. Es ist auch möglich, dass der Arm nicht gegabelt verläuft und die Halterung für den Brausekopf im Bereich des freien Endes des Wandarms angeordnet ist, wobei die Anordnung sowohl seitlich als auch mittig erfolgen kann.The bifurcation of the wall arm can, for example, extend over the entire length of the wall arm. However, it is also possible and preferred by the invention that the fork begins between the mounting component and the free end, preferably approximately in the middle of the longitudinal extent. It is also possible that the arm does not run in a forked manner and the holder for the shower head is arranged in the region of the free end of the wall arm, it being possible for the arrangement to take place both laterally and in the center.
Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Brausekopf als Handbrause mit einem an dem Gehäuse der Handbrause eingesetzten Griff ausgebildet ist. Die Befestigung des Brausekopfs an der Halterung geschieht aber nicht an dem Griff, sondern an dem Gehäuse des Brausekopfes.According to the invention it can be provided that the shower head is designed as a hand shower with a handle inserted on the housing of the hand shower. The attachment of the shower head to the bracket is not done on the handle, but on the housing of the shower head.
Als besonders günstig hat es sich herausgestellt, wenn das Brausekopfgehäuse die Form eines Diskus aufweist.It has proven to be particularly favorable if the shower head housing has the shape of a disc.
Der zu dem Brausekopf führende Schlauch kann vorzugsweise an dem Anbringungsbauteil angeschlossen sein. Das Anbringungsbauteil kann dann über eine andere Anordnung mit der Hausinstallation verbunden sein.The hose leading to the shower head can preferably be connected to the attachment component. The attachment component can then be connected to the house installation via another arrangement.
Das Spannelement kann insbesondere derart ausgebildet sein, dass es bei abgenommenem Brausekopf als Griff für den Arm dienen kann.The tensioning element can in particular be designed such that it can serve as a handle for the arm when the shower head is removed.

Figur 1 zeigt stark vereinfacht von der Seite her einen Brausehalter nach der Erfindung. Dieser Brausehalter ist im dargestellten Beispiel an einer Wand 1 angebracht. Zur Anbringung an der Wand dient ein Anbringungsbauteil 2, im dargestellten Beispiel in Form einer Konsole 3, die beispielsweise an die Wand geschraubt wird. In der Konsole 3 erfolgt eine Verbindung mit einer von einer Mischarmatur kommenden Wasserleitung. An einem Vorsprung 4 der Konsole 3 ist ein Wandarm 5 schwenkbar gelagert. Die Schwenkachse verläuft horizontal und senkrecht zur Papierebene. Zur Feststellung des Wandarms 5 in einer bestimmten Winkelposition dient eine Klemmschraube, die mit Hilfe eines Griffs 6 betätigt werden kann. Der Wandarm erstreckt sich von dem Anbringungsbauteil 2 von der Wand weg und endet in einem freien Ende 7. Im Bereich des freien Endes 7 ist an dem Wandarm 5 eine in der Figur 1 nicht näher erläuterte Halterung für einen Brausekopf 8 angebracht. Der Brausekopf 8 ist in der dargestellten Ausführungsform scheibenförmig. Er ist mit einem Handgriff 9 versehen, der gegenüber der Ebene des Brausekopfs 8 leicht abgewinkelt ist. In den Handgriff 9 führt ein Brauseschlauch 10, der von dort aus dann frei herunter hängt, was im Einzelnen nicht dargestellt ist. Das andere Ende des Brauseschlauchs 10 ist an dem Anbringungsbauteil 2 angeschlossen. Der Wandarm 5 kann, wie bereits erwähnt, um eine horizontale Achse verschwenkt werden, so dass er beim Verschwenken nach oben und Verschwenken nach unten unterschiedliche Winkelpositionen gegenüber der Wand einnimmt. Der Verschwenkwinkel des Wandarms 5 beträgt beispielsweise 180 Grad.Figure 1 shows a side view of a shower holder according to the invention in a highly simplified manner. In the example shown, this shower holder is attached to a wall 1. An attachment component 2, in the example shown in the form of a bracket 3, is used for attachment to the wall and is screwed onto the wall, for example. In the console 3 there is a connection to a water pipe coming from a mixer tap. A wall arm 5 is pivotably mounted on a projection 4 of the bracket 3. The swivel axis runs horizontally and perpendicular to the paper plane. A clamping screw, which can be actuated with the aid of a handle 6, serves to fix the wall arm 5 in a certain angular position. The wall arm extends from the attachment component 2 away from the wall and ends in a free end 7. In the region of the free end 7 there is one in FIG. 1 on the wall arm 5 Attachment not shown for a shower head 8 attached. The shower head 8 is disk-shaped in the embodiment shown. It is provided with a handle 9 which is slightly angled with respect to the level of the shower head 8. A shower hose 10 leads into the handle 9, which then hangs freely down from there, which is not shown in detail. The other end of the shower hose 10 is connected to the attachment component 2. As already mentioned, the wall arm 5 can be pivoted about a horizontal axis, so that it assumes different angular positions with respect to the wall when pivoting upwards and pivoting downwards. The pivot angle of the wall arm 5 is, for example, 180 degrees.
Die Figur 2 zeigt nun eine Aufsicht auf die Anordnung der Figur 1 in vereinfachter Darstellung. Der Wandarm 5 gabelt sich kurz hinter seiner Anbringungsstelle an der Konsole 3. Er bildet dadurch zwei Zinken 11 , die divergierend ausgebildet sind und im Bereich des freien Endes 7 des Wandarms wieder parallel zueinander verlaufen. Dort ist zwischen den beiden Enden 12 der beiden Zinken eine Halterung 13 vorgesehen, die bereits erwähnt wurde. Die Halterung haltert den Brausekopf 8, der sich also zwischen den beiden vorderen Enden 12 befindet.Figure 2 now shows a plan view of the arrangement of Figure 1 in a simplified representation. The wall arm 5 bifurcates shortly behind its attachment point on the console 3. It thereby forms two prongs 11 which are designed to diverge and again run parallel to one another in the region of the free end 7 of the wall arm. There is a bracket 13 is provided between the two ends 12 of the two prongs, which has already been mentioned. The holder holds the shower head 8, which is therefore located between the two front ends 12.
Wie die Halterung im Einzelnen aussieht, kann man in einem ersten Beispiel der Figur 3 entnehmen. Das Gehäuse des Brausekopfs 8 ist scheibenförmig mit einem Umfang ausgebildet, der etwa elliptisch verläuft. An der Innenseite der beiden Schenkel 1 1 des Wandarms 5 sind zwei Backen 14 angeordnet, deren Innenkontur die gleiche Form aufweist wie die Außenkontur des Brausekopfgehäuses. Dadurch wird der Brausekopf 8 in einer Art Formschluss aufgenommen, wobei der Form- schluss nach oben und unten wirkt. In der Richtung senkrecht zur Papierebene erfolgt die Festlegung allerdings kraftschlüssig. Zu diesem Zwecke erfolgt entweder eine indirekte Klemmung in jedem einzelnen Klemmbacken 14, oder aber einer Beaufschlagung der beiden Klemm- backen 14 aufeinander zu. Diese Beaufschlagung der beiden Klemmbacken 14 auf einander zu kann dadurch erreicht werden, dass ihr gegenseitiger Abstand etwas kleiner ist als die entsprechende Querabmessung bzw. der Durchmesser des Brausekopfgehäuses 8. Damit wird eine Beaufschlagung durch das Einschieben des Brausekopfgehäuses senkrecht zur Papierebene zwischen die beiden Klemmbacken 14 erreicht. Die Beaufschlagung wird also durch eine Verformung der beiden Arme 11 des Wandarms bewirkt. Die Erstreckung der Klemmbacken 14 senkrecht zur Papierebene der Figur 3 ist relativ kurz, so dass sie nur an dem Brausekopfgehäuse an zwei diametral gegenüberliegenden Stellen über eine sehr kurze Länge des Umfangs angreifen. Dies ist vereinfacht in Figur 4 dargestellt.How the holder looks in detail can be seen in a first example in FIG. 3. The housing of the shower head 8 is disc-shaped with a circumference that is approximately elliptical. On the inside of the two legs 1 1 of the wall arm 5, two jaws 14 are arranged, the inner contour of which has the same shape as the outer contour of the shower head housing. As a result, the shower head 8 is received in a form fit, the form fit acting upwards and downwards. In the direction perpendicular to the paper plane, however, the determination is non-positive. For this purpose, there is either indirect clamping in each individual clamping jaw 14, or else an act on the two clamping jaws. bake 14 towards each other. This action on the two clamping jaws 14 towards one another can be achieved in that their mutual distance is somewhat smaller than the corresponding transverse dimension or the diameter of the shower head housing 8 reached. The action is thus brought about by a deformation of the two arms 11 of the wall arm. The extent of the clamping jaws 14 perpendicular to the paper plane of FIG. 3 is relatively short, so that they only engage the shower head housing at two diametrically opposite points over a very short length of the circumference. This is shown in simplified form in FIG. 4.
In Figur 5 ist gezeigt, wie die beiden Backen 14 der Halterung durch einen Bügel 15 miteinander verbunden sein können, der entweder der Form des Brausekopfgehäuses 8 angepasst ist oder derart flexibel ausgebildet ist, dass er sich dieser Form anpasst. Durch den Bügel 15, der im wesentlichen auf Zug beansprucht wird, kann eine Verstärkung der Klemmwirkung erreicht werden.FIG. 5 shows how the two jaws 14 of the holder can be connected to one another by a bracket 15, which is either adapted to the shape of the shower head housing 8 or is designed to be so flexible that it adapts to this shape. By the bracket 15, which is essentially claimed in train, an increase in the clamping effect can be achieved.
Die beiden Klemmbacken 14 sind an den vorderen Enden 12 der beiden Arme 1 1 des Wandarms drehbar angebracht, so dass die Halterung zusammen mit dem Brausekopf 8 um eine horizontale Achse verschwenkt werden kann. Es kann ein Arretierelement vorgesehen sein, ähnlich wie der Drehgriff 6 der Figur 1 , um den Brausekopf in einer bestimmten Stellung arretieren zu können.The two clamping jaws 14 are rotatably attached to the front ends 12 of the two arms 11 of the wall arm, so that the holder can be pivoted about a horizontal axis together with the shower head 8. A locking element can be provided, similar to the rotary handle 6 of FIG. 1, in order to be able to lock the shower head in a certain position.
Der Brausekopf kann am Griff 9 angefasst und senkrecht zu Papierebene vorzugsweise in Richtung auf die Wand aus der Halterung herausgezogen werden. Wenn die Backen 14, siehe auch Figur 4, in der Mittelebene des Brausekopfgehäuses 8 eine kreisbogenförmige Innenkontur 16 aufweisen, erfolgt auch eine gewisse Verrastung des Brausekopfge- häuses in der Halterung, ohne dass das Brausekopfgehäuse einer Form aufzuweisen braucht, an der man erkennen kann, dass diese Stelle gehaltert werden soll. Man kann dem aus der Halterung entnommenen Brausekopf nicht ansehen, dass er zur Anbringung in einem Brausehalter bestimmt ist.The shower head can be gripped by the handle 9 and pulled out of the holder perpendicular to the paper plane, preferably in the direction of the wall. If the jaws 14, see also FIG. 4, have an arcuate inner contour 16 in the center plane of the shower head housing 8, the shower head housing in the holder, without the shower head housing having to have a shape in which it can be seen that this point is to be held. It cannot be seen from the shower head removed from the holder that it is intended for installation in a shower holder.
Die Ausführungsform der Figur 6 unterscheidet sich von den vorhergehenden Ausführungsformen dadurch, dass der Wandarm 25 nicht gegabelt ist, sondern nur einen einzigen Arm 1 1 aufweist, der allerdings unsymmetrisch angeordnet ist. Im Bereich des vorderen Endes 12 des Arms 1 1 ist die Halterung 13 seitlich angebracht. Auch hier kann die Halterung 13 ein auf Zug beanspruchtes Spannelement 15 enthalten, das die beiden Backen 14 der Halterung aufeinander zu verspannt, zumindest dann, wenn das Brausekopfgehäuse 8 eingesetzt ist. Zur Verdrehung um die vordere Achse kann seitlich ein Griffknopf 24 angebracht sein.The embodiment in FIG. 6 differs from the previous embodiments in that the wall arm 25 is not bifurcated, but only has a single arm 11, which, however, is arranged asymmetrically. In the area of the front end 12 of the arm 11, the holder 13 is attached laterally. Here, too, the holder 13 can contain a tensioning element 15 which is subjected to tension and which braces the two jaws 14 of the holder towards one another, at least when the shower head housing 8 is inserted. A handle button 24 can be attached laterally for rotation about the front axis.
Die Konsole 3, die an der Wand 1 befestigt ist, ist hier aus zwei Teilen 3a, 3b aufgebaut. Das Teil 3b, an dem die Schwenkachse für den Wandarm 25 gelagert ist, kann insgesamt um eine gestrichelt angedeutete Achse 23 verdreht werden, die senkrecht zur Wandoberfläche und damit horizontal verläuft.The console 3, which is attached to the wall 1, is here made up of two parts 3a, 3b. The part 3b, on which the pivot axis for the wall arm 25 is mounted, can be rotated overall about an axis 23 indicated by dashed lines, which runs perpendicular to the wall surface and thus horizontally.
Selbstverständlich ist auch eine Ausführungsform möglich, bei der der Arm 1 1 geradlinig von der Konsole 3 absteht und die Halterung 13 mittig an dem vorderen Ende 12 des Arms 11 angebracht ist.Of course, an embodiment is also possible in which the arm 11 protrudes in a straight line from the bracket 3 and the holder 13 is attached centrally to the front end 12 of the arm 11.
Figur 7 zeigt eine der Figur 5 entsprechende Darstellung einer Halterung 13 für das Brausekopfgehäuse 8, wobei zur verbesserten Darstellung das Brausekopfgehäuse 8 nicht eingezeichnet ist. Das die beiden Backen 14 verbindende Zugelement 15' ist als parallel zu der Verbindungslinie verlaufender Bügel ausgebildet, so dass das Brausekopfgehäuse 8, wenn es zwischen die Backen 14 eingeschoben wird, das Zugelement 15' nicht berührt. Dennoch ist auch dieses Element 15' als Zugelement ausgebildet, um die zum Festhalten des Brausekopfgehäuses 8 nötige Klemmkraft zu erzeugen.FIG. 7 shows a representation corresponding to FIG. 5 of a holder 13 for the shower head housing 8, the shower head housing 8 not being shown for an improved representation. The tension element 15 ' connecting the two jaws 14 is designed as a bracket running parallel to the connecting line, so that the shower head housing 8, when it is inserted between the jaws 14, the tension element 15 ' does not touch. Nevertheless, this element 15 ' is also designed as a tension element in order to generate the clamping force required to hold the shower head housing 8 in place.
Figur 8 zeigt nun eine der Figur 1 ähnliche Ausführungsform, bei der nur die Halterung für den Brausekopf geändert ist. Im Bereich des freien Endes 7 des Arms 5 ist eine Konushalterung 27 angebracht, in die von oben der Griff des Brausekopfs 28 eingesteckt ist. Konushalter dieser Art greifen an dem Griff oder einer am Ende des Griffs angeordnete Ü- berwurfmutter an. Die von der Erfindung vorgeschlagene Anbringungsmöglichkeit ist also bei allen Arten von Handbrausen verwendbar, die mit einer Halterung an einem Wandarm angebracht werden können. FIG. 8 now shows an embodiment similar to FIG. 1, in which only the holder for the shower head has been changed. In the area of the free end 7 of the arm 5, a cone holder 27 is attached, into which the handle of the shower head 28 is inserted from above. Cone holders of this type engage the handle or a union nut arranged at the end of the handle. The attachment option proposed by the invention can therefore be used in all types of hand showers which can be attached to a wall arm with a holder.
