Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary concealed fitting according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • axial and radial are used to designate directions.
  • axial is meant a direction that is perpendicular to the plane of extension of the building wall in which the concealed fitting is to be installed. This direction generally coincides with the direction of the axis of the receiving opening for the water flow controlling valve.
  • radial Each direction perpendicular thereto, which thus runs parallel to the plane of extension of the building wall in the installed state of the concealed fitting.
  • the second receiving space which contains the switching device, laterally from the first receiving space in which the water-controlling valve is located.
  • the axes of the two receiving spaces run in the above sense "axially” and parallel to each other.
  • the manual actuator is a pull knob, which is connected via a serving as an actuating mechanism in this case rod with the valve stem of the switching device. To change the water flow, the pull knob is pulled away from the rosette in the axial direction; in the position in which water flows to the shower head, the pull knob has a clear distance from the outside of the covering rosette.
  • the water outlet diverter includes a rotary knob in the cover rosette at the side below a volume control knob.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a sanitary concealed fitting of the type mentioned in such a way that it builds smaller in the radial direction and therefore manages with smaller covering rosettes.
  • the previous concept is left to put the two receiving spaces for the water-controlling valve and the switching device laterally (radially) against each other.
  • the "depth" of the installation niche of the building wall is used, in which direction generally enough space is available.
  • the use of the "depth” happens because the two receiving spaces in the axial direction more or less in alignment, at least "one behind the other" (seen in built-in concealed fitting from the outside) are arranged.
  • the valve stem for the switching device can no longer run in the axial direction in the above sense, but must be led out in the radial direction of the housing of the flush-mounted fitting.
  • the actuating mechanism as known per se in the prior art, must be variably adjustable in accordance with the prevailing local "installation depths", ie the distances that exist between the house lines and the respective outer surface of the building wall.
  • the receiving space for the changeover device is seen from the outside axially behind the receiving space for the valve.
  • the valve can be operated very easily in the usual way by means of an operating lever.
  • the changeover device comprises a shuttle, which is linearly reciprocally movable by means of the valve stem between two valve seats.
  • the invention society however, is rotatable so that it does not protrude differently far radially out of the housing in its two end positions.
  • a preferred changeover device which can be actuated by rotation of a rotary shaft, has two support arms connected to the rotary shaft, which enclose an angle different from 180 ° and each carry on their outer walls a valve disk, which respectively interact with a valve seat formed in the receiving space of the changeover device ,
  • the support arms are thus pivoted by means of the rotary shaft to a maximum angle, which corresponds to the difference between 180 ° and the included angle of the support arms.
  • a maximum angle which corresponds to the difference between 180 ° and the included angle of the support arms.
  • the support arms are pivotally connected to the associated valve plate. In this way, it is particularly well ensured that the valve discs can create a seal against the respective valve seat.
  • the actuating mechanism comprises a rotatably guided on the cover rosette rotating ring on which an actuator, in particular an actuating ring is held axially displaceable, the form-fitting engages over a pivot arm which is connected to the protruding from the housing end of the rotary shaft.
  • a rotation about one in o. G. Sense axially extending axis in the required rotation of the rotary shaft, which takes place about a radially extending axis implemented.
  • the manual actuator is preferably rotatable and connected via a rotation transmission mechanism with the rotary ring.
  • a rotation of the manual actuator is perceived by many people to be more pleasant than pulling or pressing the manual actuator.
  • the distance between the bottom of the manual actuator and the top of the Abdeckrosette remains the same in all positions of the manual actuator.
  • sanitary concealed fitting is a single lever mixer; In principle, however, it could be any other type of sanitary flush-mounted fitting, in particular also a thermostatic mixer.
  • the concealed fitting 1 comprises a cup-shaped, upwardly open installation box 2 made of plastic, in the interior of which a terminal body 3 and a detachably connected to the terminal body 3 in a manner not of interest here, function unit 4 are housed from bottom to top.
  • the housing of the terminal body 3 and the functional unit 4 can be considered together as a housing of the flush-mounted fitting 1.
  • the functional unit 4 which in FIG. 3 is drawn, in turn, includes a lower intermediate housing 5 with a switching device 16 (in FIG. 3 not visible), which will be described in more detail below, and a cartridge housing 6, which are connected together in a manner not of interest here.
  • a switching device 16 in FIG. 3 not visible
  • a cartridge housing 6 which are connected together in a manner not of interest here.
  • the releasable connection serve the functional unit 4 with the connector body 3 and for the understanding of the present invention are irrelevant.
  • a cover rosette 8 which has a relatively large, central passage opening 9. Through the passage opening 9, an area of the cartridge housing 6 of the functional unit 4 extends outwards.
  • connection body 3 has four 90 ° to each other angularly offset, radially penetrating the mounting box 2 connecting piece, of which in the FIGS. 1 and 2 three, namely the connecting pieces 10, 11 and 12, can be seen.
  • the connecting piece 11 is connected to the cold water house line and the diametricallylienliegeride, not visible in the drawing connecting pieces with the hot water house line.
  • a leading to the tub water pipe and the diametrically opposite connection piece 12 a leading to the shower water pipe is connected.
  • the cartridge housing 6 of the functional unit 4 has a receiving space 13 (cf. FIG. 2 ), in which a conventional control cartridge 14 is housed.
  • a control lever is placed on the Stülin 15 in a known manner, which with a cap-like portion a patch on the cartridge housing 6 and not shown in the drawing Cover cap overlaps. By turning and pivoting this operating lever, the temperature and the amount of effluent mixed water can be adjusted.
  • a receiving space 17 of the intermediate housing 5 the switching device 16 is housed, with which the water flow can be routed either to the connecting piece 10, ie to the tub, or to the connecting piece 12, ie to the shower.
  • the receiving space 17 has the shape of a from the lateral lateral surface of the intermediate housing 5 from bore introduced, which is sealed by the mounting of the Umstellvoriques 16 by a plug 18.
  • the changeover device 16 comprises a rotary shaft 21, which is passed perpendicular to the bore-like receiving space 17 and supported on both sides thereof.
  • the rotary shaft 21 has on the in FIG. 2 further forward end portion an integrally molded pivot pin 22 which is inserted into a corresponding bore, not shown, of the intermediate housing 5.
  • the rotary shaft 21 is formed by a radially extending through hole of the intermediate housing 5 from the intermediate housing 5. It carries at this end outside of the intermediate housing 5 a radially extending pivot lever 23. This pivot lever 23 is especially good at FIG. 3 to recognize. He has, as it becomes clear, an angled driving head 24th
  • two support arms 25, 26 are formed, which are not diametrically opposed, but with each other include an obtuse angle.
  • the free ends of the two support arms 25, 26 are each connected via ball joints with valve plates 27, 28, which cooperate with the valve seats 18, 19 in the receiving space 17.
  • the arrangement is thus such that by rotating the rotary shaft 21, the two valve seats 27, 28 can be applied to the associated valve seats 18 and 19 or lifted from them.
  • one of the valve seats 18, 19 is exposed, while the other is closed by the corresponding valve plate 27, 28.
  • the possible angle of rotation of the rotary shaft 21 is thus determined by the angle which the two support arms 25, 26 enclose with each other.
  • the rotary shaft 21 of the changeover device 16 is rotated by an actuating mechanism 29, in particular in FIG. 4 is shown.
  • the operating mechanism 29 is connected to the cover rosette 8 and is mounted together with this. It comprises a rotary ring 30 which concentrically surrounds the passage opening 9 and which is rotatably guided on the underside of the covering rosette. At the rotary ring 30 are in FIG. 4 pointing downward, four arcuate, also to the passage opening 9 concentric retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 integrally formed at an angular distance of 90 °.
  • an actuating ring 34 axially slidably mounted by a latching connection.
  • the actuating ring 34 has, also at an angular distance of 90 °, four each at a right angle twice graduated, axially parallel projections 35, 36, 37, 38. In this way, on the inner lateral surface of the actuating ring 34 four driving grooves 39, 40, 41, 42, which interact in a manner to be described with the pivot lever 23 of the changeover device 16.
  • the lying between the projections 35, 36, 37, 38 of the actuating ring 34 areas have an arc length corresponding to the arc length of the retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 of the rotary ring 30.
  • the radii of the retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 and lying between the projections 35, 36, 37, 38 areas of the actuating ring 34 are coordinated so that the inner circumferential surface of the retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 can slide on the outer surfaces of the respective areas , In this way, the actuating ring 34 in the manner already indicated above against the retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 and thus ultimately against the Abdeckrosette 8 axially displaceable.
  • a knob 43 is rotatably mounted, whose axis is parallel to the axis of the through hole 9.
  • a toothed segment 44 can be rotated, which is arranged on the underside of the covering rosette 8.
  • the teeth of the toothed segment 44 mesh with a toothing 45 which is formed on the outer diameter of the rotary ring 30 at least in the vicinity of the toothed segment 44.
  • a tension spring 46 extends between the sector gear It seeks the toothed segment 44 and thus also the retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 and the actuating ring 34 to move in a preferred rotational position.
  • the lid of the installation box 2 is sawed off directly on the wall surface, so that the interior of the installation box 2 and thus the terminal housing 3 are accessible.
  • the functional unit 4 with the in FIG. 3 lower end ahead inserted into the interior of the installation box 2 and connected by means of the connecting elements 7 with the terminal housing 3.
  • the inner waterways of the functional unit 4 come into communication with the corresponding guided through the terminal housing 3 and there in the connection piece 10, 11, 12 ending waterways.
  • the cover rosette 8 is placed with the actuator 29, wherein a part of the cartridge housing 6 pushes through the central passage opening 9 of the covering rosette 8 to the outside.
  • the swivel lever 23 belonging to the changeover device 16 moves with its driving head 24 into one of the four driving grooves 39, 40, 41, 42 of the actuating device 29.
  • the cover rosette 8 is placed on the outside of the building wall and sealed against this by an O-ring.
  • the actuating ring 34 of the actuator 29 moves in the axial direction relative to the retaining tabs 31, 32, 33 corresponding to the distance that the terminal housing 3 has from the outer surface of the building wall. Obviously, differences in this installation depth can be compensated with the construction shown, which correspond approximately to the axial width of the actuating ring 34.
  • the mounted concealed fitting 1 works as follows: By operating the Stützees 15 of the control cartridge 14 in a known manner, a certain amount and a certain mixing ratio of the expiring mixed water is brought about. This mixed water flows through the channel 20 in the intermediate housing 5 into the receiving space 17 of the changeover device 16 and from there, depending on the position of the changeover device 16, either via the in FIG. 2 opened valve seat 18 to the connection piece 12 and from there to the shower or on the in FIG. 2 closed valve seat 19 to the connection piece 10 and from there to the tub.
  • the tension spring 46 which acts between the toothed segment 44 and the covering rosette 8, ensures that when the water flow is turned off, a desired preferred position of the changeover device 16 is always established, for example, that in which the water flow to the tub is released.
