  • the aim of the present invention is to improve these known dispensers for plumbing systems, particularly of the type of a faucet, shower head or the like, which have additional functionalities with respect to conventional ones, further achieving an aesthetically pleasant result.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a dispenser device which ensures optimum lighting conditions in the water dispensing region regardless of the lighting conditions of the room in which it is arranged.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a dispenser device which gives maximum assurance of safety during use.
  • a dispenser for plumbing systems particularly of the type of a faucet, shower head or the like as claimed in claim 1.
  • the dispenser device generally designated by the reference numerals 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d in the various embodiments, comprises a dispenser device body 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, in which there is a passage 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, which leads outside through at least one dispensing outlet 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d for the water.

  • second electric current generator 13 such as for example a turbine or Pelton-wheel or flow-controlled generator
  • Each one of the two electric current generators 12, 13 is driven by the flow of water along the corresponding water supply duct so that when the dispenser is opened, electric power is generated and can be used to supply the light sources 9,19 of the lighting means 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d.
  • the lighting means 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d comprise at least two light sources 9, 19, preferably of the LED type, which are adapted to emit light beams of mutually different colors and can be supplied with power by means of the electric current generated by the current generators 12, 13 cited above.

  • control and monitoring element 30 adjusts the luminous intensity of the two light sources 9, 19 so that the coloring of the light stream produced by the combination of the two light streams emitted by the light sources 9, 19 corresponds, in this case also, to the temperature of the water that is being dispensed.
  • the electric power supply of the lighting means 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, performed by means of the control and monitoring element 30, shown in detail only in Figure 2 with reference to the second embodiment of the dispenser device, may also be used for the other embodiments of the dispenser device.
  • the position of the temperature sensor 31 is merely an example, since it can vary according to the assembly and space occupation requirements of the dispenser device.
  • the lighting means 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d are preferably arranged so that they are adapted to emit the beam of light in the same direction in which the water is dispensed through the dispensing outlet 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, and according to requirements said beam of light can be substantially parallel to the direction in which the water is dispensed through the dispensing outlet 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d or can be oriented along a direction which is incident to the jet of water dispensed through the dispensing outlet 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d or can be emitted within the jet of water dispensed through the dispensing outlet 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d.

  • the lighting means 8c comprise two light sources 9, 19, constituted by light bulbs or LEDs, which are arranged in a remote region with respect to the dispensing outlet 5c.
  • the light emitted by the light sources 9, 19 is transmitted to a region which is proximate to the dispensing outlet 5c by virtue of light transmission means, which can be constituted by an optical fiber 10c, which has an initial end which faces the light sources 9, 19 and an opposite end or terminal end, which is arranged proximate to the dispensing outlet 5c.
  • the optical fiber 10c lies at least partially within the body 2c and even more preferably, at least in its final portion, lies coaxially with respect to the dispensing outlet 5c, and ends indeed at the dispensing outlet 5c.
