Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary fitting with an improved control panel for displaying the current mode and optionally the instantaneous operating parameters.
  • Sanitary fittings that are designed for high standards, have control panels over which the water outlet and / or the temperature can be operated by tapping on control panels. Examples of such fittings can be found in DE-C-100 32 462 . WO-A-2004/001142 and US-A-2006/0186215 , Furthermore, in automatically operated sanitary fittings, it is known to be able to adjust the period of time for which the fitting emits water as soon as it recognizes an approaching person. An example of such a fitting is in JP-A-2002081109 described. Furthermore, it is for example from the already mentioned above DE-C-100 32 462 known to automatically control automatically working sanitary fittings according to a water outlet program (for example, shower program).
  • a water outlet program for example, shower program
  • the sanitary fitting according to the invention is provided with at least one water outlet and a valve for selectively releasing and shutting off the at least one water outlet.
  • the at least one valve which is a flow rate adjusting valve and / or a switching valve for switching the water outlet of at least one of the water outlets to at least one other of the water outlets, is controlled by a drive unit.
  • a display device On a display device information about the current operating state or current operating parameters of the sanitary fitting are displayed.
  • the sanitary fitting is, for example, a washbasin or a shower tap.
  • the display device of the sanitary fitting is used to graph the currently remaining release period for which the water outlet is still released during a release interval.
  • This can be done, for example digital, analog or by means of symbol fields occurring representation of the remaining release period done.
  • Particularly advantageous is the representation of residual maturity when the sanitary fitting controls the at least one water outlet according to a selected program, the release and shut-off intervals for the at least one water outlet has. So you could imagine, for example, a water outlet control, as it makes sense to brush your teeth. In this water discharge control, it is advantageous if, at the beginning of the program control, water is dispensed once or twice briefly to moisten the toothbrush before and / or after application of the dentifrice.
  • the "humidification process" could then be followed by a longer shut-off interval during which the water outlet is interrupted. During this time, the toothbrushing process takes place. The person is always informed about the remaining shut-off period displayed on the control unit. Only after expiration of Absperrzeitdauer then the water outlet is released again, and this time span or during this period still remaining remaining release time is always displayed to the user.
  • the display device and / or an operating device for the display device can be switched from a sleep mode to an operating mode, which takes place by triggering an activation signal.
  • different information can be displayed on the display device, depending on whether the sanitary fitting is currently in sleep or in a mode in which a mode of operation of the sanitary fitting is selectable.
  • idle mode for example, the time can be displayed on the display device.
  • the activation signal is triggered, which can be triggered automatically, for example by pressing (in particular tapping) a keypad manually or by detecting the approach of a person (or a person's hand)
  • the display device can change the display of the time to the representation of, for example, the preset one or the desired temperature selected by the person switch the water.
  • the valve can be activated to release the water at the setpoint temperature.
  • various keypads are displayed on the display device or operating device in the operating mode, which are optionally not visible in sleep mode and serve the further operation of the sanitary fitting. For example, one could visualize symbol fields for "warm” and “cold” and / or for adjusting the amount of water (eg “more” or “less”). Keypads may also be displayed for certain water spill control programs, such as the shower spout, brushing, facial wash or hand wash. Finally, it is also possible to display symbol fields for "man” and “ woman” in the operating mode of the display device or operating device, via which, for example, depending on the operation, water with different temperatures is output.
  • the activation of the display device by manual operation or automatically when approaching a person leads to a designerisch advantageous overall appearance of the sanitary fitting and its control panel, which is visually appealing.
  • this energy can be saved by, for example, a backlight of the operating device is only activated when it is expected to operate the sanitary fitting.
  • sanitary fitting, display device and operating device as a unit or in each case sanitary fitting, display device and operating device as individual components.
  • the combination of display device with operating device or sanitary fitting with display device or control device is possible, wherein the display device and control device can be connected both via lines and wirelessly with each other or with the sanitary fitting.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 a sanitary fitting 10 with a display 12 for displaying various information and a control panel 14 is shown.
  • the sanitary fitting 10 is formed in this embodiment as a tub / DuschArmatur and has a water outlet 16 for a bathtub and a (not shown) head or hand shower.
  • an analog clock 18 is shown on the display device 12, which reproduces, for example, the current time of day (possibly even with a date display, which is not shown).
  • an on-off keypad 20 is shown in the control panel 14.
  • this on-off keypad 20 is then tapped with the finger of a hand, this is detected by a behind the control panel 14, in particular non-contact sensor (not shown), whereupon the display device 12 is activated to all the keypads for operating the Armature indicate what is in Fig. 2 is shown.
  • Keypads 22,24 for "hot” and “cold” include keypads 26,28 for decreasing or increasing the amount of water outlet, and keypads 30,32 for bathing or feeding the head and foot baths, respectively Hand shower.
  • On the display device 12 is also instead of the time of day representation (see reference numeral 18 of Fig. 1 ) now shows the preset temperature of the outgoing water (see reference numeral 33 in FIG Fig. 2 ).
  • valve 10 34 When activated or put into operation valve 10 34 control signals either to a valve 36 for releasing the tub outlet or to a valve 38 for dispensing the water outlet from the head or hand shower control signals issued by a drive unit.
  • Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a trained in this embodiment as a washbasin faucet fitting 10 ', which has a water outlet 16 for a sink (not shown).
  • This sanitary fitting 10 ' also has a display device 12, on which, for example, the current time of day is displayed in the idle state (in FIG Fig. 3 Not shown).
  • the sanitary fitting 10 also has an operating device 14 with a user interface 15 on which various symbol fields can be displayed.
  • the representation of these symbol fields can be controlled and displayed as a function of the detection of the approach of a person.
  • a proximity sensor is used in Fig. 3 is not shown and is designed for example as a capacitive, infrared or ultrasonic sensor.
  • the proximity sensor may be formed in any known technology.
  • symbol fields 40,42 for "male” and “female” are present at the contact of the water outlet 16 water with a lower or a higher preset temperature exits.
  • the user interface 15 in this exemplary embodiment has three further symbols 44, 46, 48, via which various water discharge program controls can be selected. For example, by tapping the icon panel 48, it is possible to select a water spout control that exits water in an amount and for a period of time that would normally occur to wash the face is required.
  • the respective amount of water, water discharge time and water temperature can be set individually and can each be visible on the display device, which is not shown in detail in the figures. This feature is not necessarily required for the invention.
  • a water spout control such as that required for hand washing, can be activated.
  • water to first flow out of the outlet 16 for a first release interval, whereupon a first shut-off interval follows, followed by another (second) release interval.
  • first release interval it is possible, for example, to moisten the hands with water in order then to clean the hands wetted with water during the ensuing shut-off interval with the aid of a cleaning agent, such as, for example, soap.
  • the second release interval then serves to rinse the detergent from the hands after cleaning.
  • the durations of the individual intervals, the amount of water flow and the water temperature are expediently individually presettable.
  • a third water discharge program control can be realized by tapping the symbol field 44.
  • a program for an intermittent water outlet is controlled, as it is advantageous, for example, for brushing the teeth.
  • the wetting of the toothbrush with water could take place in an initial release interval.
  • a second, relatively short release interval can then follow to once again wet the toothbrush with water. This could be followed by a longer shut-off interval.
  • the actual tooth brushing process takes place, which also has a dental care and oral hygiene aspect due to the prolonged period of time.
  • the water outlet program control are all intervals, the water quantities and the water temperatures individually presettable.
  • the peculiarity of the display 12 of the sanitary fitting 10 'of Fig. 3 is that the remaining time for which the individual release and shut-off intervals are still ongoing, 50 are displayed either analog, digital or symbolic. Thus, the user is always informed about the remaining terms for which the individual currently running intervals are still ongoing.
