Definitions
- the invention relates to a drain fitting for a cistern for selectively triggering a partial flush or full flush, with a valve body for opening and closing a drain, with a held in a float housing to an overflow pipe first float and arranged under the first float in the float housing second float, whose buoyancy is limited, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a drain fitting for a cistern is known in which a full flush or a partial flush can be effected via various actuating means.
- two separate floats are provided, with a lower float is held by a locking mechanism.
- An unlocking element for releasing the bolt can be actuated via a driver.
- This construction for a drain fitting is complicated and expensive to manufacture. Furthermore, there is the disadvantage that the multiplicity of mechanical components is susceptible to soiling and to wear.
- the EP-A-0 727 533 discloses a drain fitting for a cistern for selectively triggering a partial flush or full flush, with a valve body for opening and closing a drain.
- the valve body is mounted at the lower end of a raisable and lowerable overflow tube, which is arranged between two vertical, rod-shaped supports.
- a first float is held, under which a second float (auxiliary float) is arranged, the buoyancy is limited and surrounding the overflow pipe annular.
- the drain fitting has a two-part push button, the two parts are independently and together movable. The lower end of the push button engages a piston rod, which is received vertically displaceable in a housing.
- a projection is provided with.
- a lever interacts.
- the latter is pivotally mounted on a bar or yoke connecting the rod-shaped supports.
- the lever is connected to a pull wire or a pull chain whose other end is fixed to the upper edge of the overflow pipe.
- wedge-shaped latching connection elements are mounted, which engage in a full flush in a circumferential annular groove formed in the outer circumference of the overflow pipe.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a drain set for cisterns, which is simple in construction and reliably allows the optional triggering of a partial or full flush.
- the invention presses in a full flush the overflow pipe via support means on a rotatably mounted lever and the lever on the maximum buoyancy lower second float, wherein the float housing a stop for the lower second float is formed, which limits the buoyancy of the second float, and wherein the support means by a formed on a first jack support edge, by means of which the lever is pivotable upwards and which can be placed on the lever, or by a resilient tab which can be placed on the lever, are formed. Consequently, neither a separate locking mechanism is required, which would considerably complicate the structure of the mechanism, nor are magnets required.
- the interposition of a lever allows particularly easy to implement such a mechanism, which on the one hand holds the upper float in the raised position and on the other hand allows a pivoting of the lever, a release of the mechanism for lowering the upper float.
- the lever can also a filled cistern Form stop for the lower second float.
- the first upper float and the overflow pipe can be raised.
- that part of the mechanism is operated, which serves to support the first upper float and the overflow pipe in a raised position.
- the separate operation of the first lifter or the second lifter either a full flush or a partial flush.
- the means for supporting the first upper float and the overflow tube are formed by a resilient tab which can be placed on the lever. The lever then releases the resilient tab when pivoting, so that the resilient tab, together with the overflow tube and the upper float, can sink downwards if the water level reaches a corresponding height.
- the means for supporting the first upper float and the overflow tube are formed by a support edge, by means of which the lever is pivotable upwards.
- the support edge can thus be moved past by pivoting the lever up to this, the lever can then swing back to the starting position and the support edge is supported on the lever. Only when the lower float releases the lever can the bearing edge be guided past the lever again.
- the second lower float is loosely guided between overflow pipe and float housing, so that it can fall or rise as needed, without jamming is to be feared.
- the lever is preferably rotatably mounted on the float housing. Furthermore, a stop on the float housing be provided to limit the movement of the lower float upwards.
- FIG. 1 an inventive drain fitting is arranged in a cistern, not shown, which is not filled with water.
- a first upper float 2 is fixed, which is mounted on a thread 5 and is infinitely adjustable in height to adjust the General réellemenge.
- the float 2 is arranged in a space 4 within a float housing 20, wherein overflow pipe 1 and float 2 can be raised via a lift 17.
- a lower space 7 is provided, in which a second float 6 is arranged loosely between overflow pipe 1 and float housing 20.
- the overflow pipe 1 and the float 6 is in the lowered position due to gravity, since the floats 2 and 6 have no buoyancy.
- FIG. 3 the introduction of a partial flush is shown.
- the lifter 17 is raised together with the overflow pipe 1 and the float 2, whereby the seal 3 is lifted off the drain 8 in the lower region.
- the same pressure prevails both on the underside of the seal 3 and on the upper side 3, so that the overflow pipe 1 remains in the raised position due to the buoyancy force of the float 2 until the water level has dropped to approximately the level 11.
- the seal 3 is again at the outlet 8 and due to the water pressure, this remains in the closed position and the cistern can be refilled.
- FIG. 4 the initiation of a full flush is shown.
- a second lifter 12 is pulled, wherein on the lifter 12, a support edge 14 is formed, which is arranged below the lever 9 and is then moved upward, whereby the lever 9 is pivoted upwards and allows a further upward movement of the lifter 12 ,
- the lower float 6 remains in the lower position, since it is held by a stop 90 and can not be moved further up.
- the lifter 12 is also recognized in the upward movement of an annular collar 13, by means of which then the overflow pipe 1 and the upper float 2 are also moved upwards.
- FIG. 5 the drain fitting is shown in a position during full flush.
- the overflow pipe 1 is in the raised position and the valve body 3 releases the drain 8.
- the collar 13 acts on the lift 12, which in turn presses on the support edge 14 on the lever 9 and thus on the lower float 6, the initially buoyancy.
- FIG. 7 the drain fitting is shown in the starting position, with the line 15, the level is shown when the cistern is completely empty. In the full flush the box is not completely emptied, but the flushing rate only runs up to the level 16 until the support edge 14 is no longer held by the lower float 6.
- the flushing amount or the level 16 is adjustable.
- FIGS. 8 to 14 a second embodiment of a drain fitting according to the invention is shown, wherein the same reference numerals have been used for functionally identical components.
- FIG. 8 the drain fitting with a float housing 20, a first lifter 12 for the full flush and a second lifter 17 for the partial flush is shown.
- the overflow pipe 1 with the sealing element 3 can be seen.
- FIG. 10 the drain fitting is shown in section, wherein the surrounding cistern is filled with water.
- the float 6 abuts against a stop 90, which is designed as a lever and can also be supported on the housing via a projection 22.
- the upper float 2 is fixed to the overflow pipe 1 and provides some buoyancy, which, however, is less than the water pressure on the sealing element 3.
- a lever 9 is provided, which is mounted pivotably about an axis 21 on the float housing 20. On the lever 9, a stop 23 is formed, so that the lever 9 can not be pivoted beyond the horizontal position upwards.
- FIG. 12 the initiation of a full flush is shown.
- the lifter 12 is pulled so that the lifter 12 moves the float 2 together with the overflow pipe 1 upwards, for which purpose a contact surface 24 is formed on the lifter 12.
- the sealing element 3 releases the drain 8.
- a spring tab 25 which is integrally formed on an annular collar 26.
- the spring tab 25 is slightly obliquely radially out, wherein in an upward movement of the lifter 12, the spring tab 25 is guided past the lever 9 and after jumping the lever 9, the spring tab 25 protrudes outward, so that when lowering the lifter 12, the spring tab 25 rests on the lifter 9. In this raised position, the float 6 is effective, which supports the lever 9 from below.
- FIG. 13 is at the full flush of the float 6 due to a low water level dropped, whereby the lever 9 can pivot down.
- the spring tab 25 is no longer supported on the lever 9, but can also be lowered down into a receptacle within the annular float 6. Due to gravity then moves the overflow pipe 1 with the float 2 down until the sealing element 3 closes the drain 8.
- the spring tab 25 is again disposed within the float 6 and the lever 9 can not pivot further down due to a stop on the float housing 20.
- the float 6 lifts and moves the lever 9 back to the starting position, in which the lever 9 is arranged horizontally and the stop 23 rests against the float housing 20.
- the individual components are made of plastic, which can be used as a float foams or other suitable materials.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Ablaufgarnitur für Spülkästen zu schaffen, die einfach aufgebaut ist und zuverlässig die wahlweise Auslösung einer Teil- oder Vollspülung ermöglicht.The present invention has for its object to provide a drain set for cisterns, which is simple in construction and reliably allows the optional triggering of a partial or full flush.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Ablaufgarnitur mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a pop-up waste with the features of
Erfindungsgemäß drückt bei einer Vollspülung das Überlaufrohr über Abstützmittel auf einen drehbar gelagerten Hebel und über den Hebel auf den im maximalen Auftrieb befindlichen unteren zweiten Schwimmer, wobei am Schwimmergehäuse ein Anschlag für den unteren zweiten Schwimmer ausgebildet ist, der den Auftrieb des zweiten Schwimmers begrenzt, und wobei die Abstützmittel durch eine an einem ersten Heber ausgebildete Auflagekante, mittels der der Hebel nach oben verschwenkbar ist und die auf den Hebel auflegbar ist, oder durch eine federnde Lasche, die auf den Hebel auflegbar ist, gebildet sind. Es wird demzufolge weder ein gesonderter Verriegelungsmechanismus benötigt, der den Aufbau der Mechanik erheblich verkomplizieren würde, noch sind Magneten erforderlich.According to the invention presses in a full flush the overflow pipe via support means on a rotatably mounted lever and the lever on the maximum buoyancy lower second float, wherein the float housing a stop for the lower second float is formed, which limits the buoyancy of the second float, and wherein the support means by a formed on a first jack support edge, by means of which the lever is pivotable upwards and which can be placed on the lever, or by a resilient tab which can be placed on the lever, are formed. Consequently, neither a separate locking mechanism is required, which would considerably complicate the structure of the mechanism, nor are magnets required.
Die Zwischenschaltung eines Hebels ermöglicht besonders einfach die Realisierung einer solchen Mechanik, die einerseits den oberen Schwimmer in der angehobenen Position hält und andererseits bei einem Verschwenken des Hebels ein Lösen der Mechanik für das Absenken des oberen Schwimmers ermöglicht. Der Hebel kann dabei bei gefülltem Spülkasten auch einen Anschlag für den unteren zweiten Schwimmer ausbilden.The interposition of a lever allows particularly easy to implement such a mechanism, which on the one hand holds the upper float in the raised position and on the other hand allows a pivoting of the lever, a release of the mechanism for lowering the upper float. The lever can also a filled cistern Form stop for the lower second float.
Gemäß der Erfindung sind für eine Teilspülung mittels eines zweiten Hebers der erste obere Schwimmer und das Überlaufrohr anhebbar. Allerdings wird für eine Teilspülung nicht derjenige Teil der Mechanik betätigt, der zum Abstützen des ersten oberen Schwimmers und des Überlaufrohres in einer angehobenen Position dient. Dadurch kann durch die getrennte Betätigung des ersten Hebers oder des zweiten Hebers wahlweise eine Vollspülung oder eine Teilspülung erreicht werden.According to the invention, for a partial flush by means of a second lifter, the first upper float and the overflow pipe can be raised. However, for a partial flushing not that part of the mechanism is operated, which serves to support the first upper float and the overflow pipe in a raised position. As a result, can be achieved by the separate operation of the first lifter or the second lifter either a full flush or a partial flush.
Vorzugsweise sind die Mittel zum Abstützen des ersten oberen Schwimmers und des Überlaufrohres durch eine federnde Lasche gebildet, die auf den Hebel auflegbar ist. Der Hebel gibt dann die federnde Lasche bei einem Verschwenken frei, sodass die federnde Lasche zusammen mit dem Überlaufrohr und dem oberen Schwimmer nach unten sinken kann, falls der Wasserstand eine entsprechende Höhe erreicht.Preferably, the means for supporting the first upper float and the overflow tube are formed by a resilient tab which can be placed on the lever. The lever then releases the resilient tab when pivoting, so that the resilient tab, together with the overflow tube and the upper float, can sink downwards if the water level reaches a corresponding height.
Alternativ sind die Mittel zum Abstützen des ersten oberen Schwimmers und des Überlaufrohres durch eine Auflagekante gebildet, mittels der der Hebel nach oben verschwenkbar ist. Die Auflagekante kann somit durch ein Verschwenken des Hebels nach oben an diesem vorbeigeführt werden, wobei der Hebel dann wieder in die Ausgangsposition zurückschwenken kann und die Auflagekante auf dem Hebel abgestützt ist. Erst wenn der untere Schwimmer den Hebel freigibt kann die Auflagekante wieder an dem Hebel vorbeigeführt werden.Alternatively, the means for supporting the first upper float and the overflow tube are formed by a support edge, by means of which the lever is pivotable upwards. The support edge can thus be moved past by pivoting the lever up to this, the lever can then swing back to the starting position and the support edge is supported on the lever. Only when the lower float releases the lever can the bearing edge be guided past the lever again.
Vorzugsweise ist der zweite untere Schwimmer lose zwischen Überlaufrohr und Schwimmergehäuse geführt, sodass dieser je nach Bedarf absinken oder ansteigen kann, ohne dass ein Verklemmen zu befürchten ist.Preferably, the second lower float is loosely guided between overflow pipe and float housing, so that it can fall or rise as needed, without jamming is to be feared.
Für eine einfache Ausbildung der Mechanik ist der Hebel vorzugsweise am Schwimmergehäuse drehbar gelagert. Ferner kann ein Anschlag an dem Schwimmergehäuse vorgesehen sein, um die Bewegung des unteren Schwimmers nach oben zu begrenzen.For a simple design of the mechanism, the lever is preferably rotatably mounted on the float housing. Furthermore, a stop on the float housing be provided to limit the movement of the lower float upwards.
