Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shower device with a sanitary fitting, in which a sanitary valve is arranged, which serves among other things to control a shower hose connection.
  • the invention is based on the object of creating a possibility to be able to control an additional shower device via an existing sanitary fitting.
  • the invention proposes a shower device with the features mentioned in claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
  • the invention also proposes a hand shower with the features listed in claim 30.
  • the hand shower belonging to the sanitary fitting thus has, in addition to its normal jet outlet element, an outlet connection which can be connected to an input connection of a further shower device.
  • the further shower device can be controlled by the sanitary fittings. So there is no further manual sanitary valve required to change or adjust, for example, the amount and / or the temperature of reaching the other shower device water. Only one additional valve is required to open or close the hand shower exit port.
  • the further shower device may be an accessory to the hand shower, for example, a supplement of the hand shower with a different type of radiation or other shape or a different type of handling.
  • This additional shower can be handled together with the hand shower, or even have its own handle that can be used to handle the auxiliary hand shower and the hand shower.
  • the hand shower has a mechanical coupling device for the mechanical coupling of the hand shower to the further shower device.
  • the coupling device is designed such that in the mechanical connection between the hand shower and the other shower device at the same time the output terminal of the hand shower is hydraulically connected to the input port of the other shower device. This will allow lent by a simple mechanical connection process at the same time to establish the fluid connection between the two parts.
  • a valve may be provided to open the outlet connection.
  • This valve can be operated, for example, by a manually operated actuator. Then the user can consciously establish the fluid connection.
  • the valve can be arranged for example in the hand shower itself. It can be designed and arranged like a conventional valve for switching between different types of radiation of a hand shower, so that previous solutions can be used by arranged in hand showers valves.
  • valve for opening the outlet connection of the hand shower in the sanitary fitting itself.
  • a hose having two water guides may be used.
  • valve is indeed arranged in the hand shower, but its actuator is mounted in the sanitary fitting.
  • valve for opening and closing the output terminal by the establishment or release of a mechanical connection with the input port of the shower device is actuated. Then the user no longer has to perform any additional activities in order to be able to control the further shower device.
  • the mechanical connection which also produces the fluid connection at the same time, can be configured as a plug-in coupling, so that the outlet connection in the hand-held showerhead forms part of this plug-in coupling whose other part is arranged in the further showering device.
  • Plug-in couplings are known per se, so that known solutions can be used, wherein optionally an adaptation to the present here specific application can be performed.
  • the valve which opens and closes the outlet connection of the hand shower can, for example, be designed in such a way that, when the outlet connection is open, the water supply to the jet outlet element is at least partially switched off. It may also be provided a complete shutdown. This means that when the connection between the hand shower and further shower device is established, the water is then only supplied to the further shower device or, in the first place, to the further shower device.
  • valve is designed such that when the outlet port is open, the water supply to the jet outlet element of the hand shower is maintained.
  • the hand shower can still be used as a head shower or side shower.
  • the output terminal and / or the coupling device are arranged on the hand shower, that when manufactured connection with the other shower device, the jet outlet element facing in a direction facing the user. This is useful if the jet outlet element is to continue to be used for showering.
  • the coupling device has a water-carrying plug-in nipple. This can be covered, for example, with not connected hand shower, so that it is exposed only when making the mechanical connection.
  • a sleeve or a similar element can serve, which may also have additional functions, for example as a functional element for the holder of the hand shower when it is not used.
  • the invention proposes to connect the shower device described with a shower device connected to the output connection of the hand shower and mechanically coupled thereto.
  • This may in particular have a shower device that does not have its own fluid connection with a domestic installation.
  • a shower device that is mechanically attached automatically to a wall or to another part of the device of a bathroom, a shower cubicle or the like.
  • the additional shower device proposed by the invention which is connected to the hand shower, can be any shower device, for example also a wall bar, which can serve to receive side shower heads.
  • the wall bar additionally serve as a normal wall bar by having a preferably displaceable holder for the hand shower, so that This can also be used as overhead shower without operating the wall bar.
  • the wall rod is hollow, so that its interior can serve as a water guide.
  • the input connection of the shower device designed as a wall bar and / or the part of the coupling device assigned to the wall bar is arranged in the region of the lower end of the wall bar.
  • the further shower device has at least one overhead shower.
  • the overhead shower can then be supplied with water.
  • the wall bar can also have at least one side shower.
  • the shower device may have its own diverter valve.
  • a console which has the parts of the connecting device and / or the coupling device.
  • the console may include or form additional functional elements, but for example, storage facilities for needed or desired when showering objects.
  • the invention also proposes a shower device for attachment to a wall or other part of a shower cubicle, which has at least one jet outlet element, an inlet connection for connection to an outlet connection of a hand shower and a water guide from the inlet connection to the at least one jet outlet element.
  • This shower device can be designed as a wall bar, it can also have a mechanical coupling device for mechanically coupling a hand shower.
  • the invention likewise proposes a hand shower with a connection for a shower hose, at least one jet outlet element and an optionally openable outlet connection for connection to an input connection of a shower device.

Abstract

Selon la présente invention, un tuyau (4) menant d'une robinetterie d'installation sanitaire (1) à une douchette à main (5, 45) est utilisé pour alimenter un système de douche (10) fixé (37) à un mur, qui ne présente aucune connexion fixe à l'installation domestique, ou pour alimenter une douchette à main d'appoint. La douchette à main présente un orifice de sortie (24) pour l'eau qui sort du tuyau. Cet orifice de sortie peut être relié à un orifice d'entrée (20) dans le système de douche. Ainsi, l'eau passe à travers la douchette à main pour arriver dans le système de douche. Le système de douche peut être une barre murale (11). La connexion qui permet le passage de l'eau est de préférence établie au moyen d'un système de raccord mécanique.
