Definitions

  • the invention relates to a modular valve and distributor system with at least two components that can be joined together, the components having a cuboid housing in which at least connection openings for the inflow and outflow are provided.
  • Such a system is known, for example, from German utility model G 94 02 093.0.
  • This valve and distributor system is particularly intended for air conditioning and heating systems and has a basic housing in which only one opening is formed on each connection side.
  • Sanitary water fittings on the other hand, mostly have housings that are usually manufactured as cast brass parts.
  • the housings are very different in terms of their structure and surface characteristics.
  • the cast parts are usually specially designed for a mixing and control system and for a tap, so that a large number of cast housings is required for the different sanitary fittings.
  • the well-known valve and distributor system is for sanitary water doors not very suitable, since each connection side of the basic housing has only one opening.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to reduce the number of special cast housings for water fittings and to propose a sanitary water fitting which can be variably assembled from basic elements.
  • connection module is provided for connection to a cold and hot water supply line network and at least one module with a valve for water delivery.
  • Embodiments of the invention are specified in claims 2 to 20.
  • the system according to the invention enables a modular construction of a sanitary water fitting. Only the individual components of the system have to be kept ready.
  • the individual components or modules have connection openings arranged in the same way on the connection sides, so that the various modules can optionally be combined to form sanitary water fittings.
  • a fitting according to the invention consists at least of a connection module to which the supply line network for cold and hot water and a drain line is connected on the one hand, and a module which contains an engagement mixing and shut-off valve which is assigned to the connection module on the other hand.
  • the water fitting can expediently be provided with an end module at the area opposite the connection module, the modules arranged between the end module and the connection module being held in the selected position in a sealed manner with the aid of clamping screws. Additional modules can be arranged in the sanitary water tap
  • a sealing body can be used in each connection opening, in such a way that the individual modules are in their correct Position to the connection openings of the following module.
  • the sealing body is designed as an elastic, tubular sealing ring.
  • the sealing body can also be designed as an elastic cylindrical closure seal, with which the corresponding connection openings are blocked off.
  • the individual modules are preferably made of metal, e.g. B. brass.
  • the module, in particular the connection module can also be provided with a body made of plastic.
  • corresponding metal step sleeves can be used in stepped bores of the plastic body, which protrude from the connection module on the one hand and here form a connection part for the cold and hot water supply line network or for drain lines of the mixed water generated.
  • the end module is preferably formed from a connection plate and an end plate.
  • the connection plate has connection openings arranged on its connection side corresponding to the other modules. Drain lines for the mixed water generated in the sanitary water fitting can be formed in the end plate, which can be connected to the connection plate by means of screws. In addition, a deflection or distribution of a first connection opening to further connection openings in the connection plate can also be provided.
  • the end plate can be made of both metal and plastic.
  • the modules assembled according to the different requirements can expediently be arranged in a flush-mounted housing or a surface-mounted housing or also directly in a sanitary object, the actuating devices protruding from the individual modules penetrating the housing or the sanitary object in such a way that the corresponding operating handles are accessible on the outside are.
