Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Ablaufarmatur insbesondere für Bade- oder Duschwannen, mit einem einen Ablaufkanal definierenden Ablaufgehäuse, das ein mittels eines Stellelements betätigbares Ablaufventil aufweist und mit Befestigungsmitteln zur flüssigkeitsdichten Befestigung an einer Wannenboden- oder Beckenbodenöffnung versehen ist, und mit einer oberhalb des Ablaufventils angeordneten Abdeckung.The invention relates to a drain fitting in particular for bath or shower trays, with a drain channel defining a drain housing having an actuatable by means of an actuator drain valve and is provided with fastening means for liquid-tight attachment to a trough bottom or basin bottom opening, and with a cover disposed above the drain valve ,

Badewannen sind üblicherweise mit einer außerhalb der Badewanne installierten Einlaufarmatur (Zulaufarmatur) ausgestattet, deren Ausströmöffnung oberhalb der Badewanne angeordnet ist.Bathtubs are usually equipped with an inlet fitting (inlet fitting) installed outside the bath, whose outlet opening is arranged above the bathtub.

Bekannt sind auch Badewannen-Ablaufarmaturen, die eine Ablauffunktion, eine Überlauffunktion und eine Zulauffunktion in einer einzigen Armatur vereinen, wobei an der unterhalb des oberen Wannenrandes angeordneten Überlauföffnung ein Gehäuse (Zulaufteil) mit einem Einströmkanal festgelegt ist, das eine Drehrosette zur Betätigung des Ablaufventils trägt. Eine solche multifunktionale Badewannenarmatur ist beispielsweise in der DE 87 07 328 U1 dargestellt.Also known are bathtub drain fittings, which combine a drain function, an overflow function and a supply function in a single fitting, wherein at the below the upper edge of the tub disposed overflow opening a housing (inlet part) is set with an inflow, which carries a rotary escutcheon for actuating the drain valve , Such a multifunctional bathtub tap is for example in the DE 87 07 328 U1 shown.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Ablaufarmatur für Bade- oder Duschwannen zu schaffen, durch die eine außerhalb der Wanne zu installierende Einlaufarmatur entfallen kann, so dass sich neue Freiheiten hinsichtlich der Gestaltung solcher Wannen ergeben. Ferner soll eine geräuscharme Wasserzufuhr beim Befüllen von Badewannen erreicht werden.The present invention has for its object to provide a drain fitting for bath or shower trays, can be omitted by an outside of the tub to be installed inlet fitting, so that there are new freedoms in terms of the design of such tubs. Further to achieve a low-noise water supply when filling bathtubs.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Ablaufarmatur mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1.This object is achieved by a drain fitting with the features of claim 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ablaufarmatur umfasst einen Bodeneinlauf. Hierzu weist das Ablaufgehäuse der Ablaufarmatur einen Wasserzulaufkanal auf, an dem ein Einlaufkanal angeschlossen ist, der oberhalb des Ablaufventils und unterhalb einer in der Wanne anzuordnenden, das Ablaufventil verdeckenden Abdeckung (Abdeckhaube) mündet.The drain fitting according to the invention comprises a bottom inlet. For this purpose, the drain body of the drain fitting on a water inlet channel to which an inlet channel is connected, which opens above the drain valve and below a to be arranged in the tub, the drain valve concealing cover (cover hood).

Die erfindungsgemäße Ablaufarmatur ermöglicht durch ihre einen Bodeneinlauf bildenden Zulauf- und Einlaufelemente eine besonders geräuscharme Befüllung einer Bade- oder Duschwanne. Da auf einen sichtbaren Wasserzulauf verzichtet wird, ergeben sich neue Freiheitsgrade für das Design von Badewannen. Darüber hinaus lassen sich durch den Wegfall einer herkömmlichen, außerhalb der Badewanne anzubringenden Einlaufarmatur Kostenvorteile erzielen.The drain fitting according to the invention allows through its bottom inlet forming inlet and inlet elements a particularly low-noise filling a bath or shower tray. Since there is no need for a visible water supply, new degrees of freedom are created for the design of bathtubs. In addition, can be achieved by eliminating a conventional, outside the bathtub to be installed inlet fitting cost advantages.

Eine bevorzugte Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Ablaufarmatur sieht vor, dass der Einlaufkanal mit einem wasserdruckbetätigten Verschlusselement versehen ist. Durch das Verschlusselement ist der Einlaufkanal gegen Eindringen von Schmutzstoffen aus der Badewanne abgesichert.A preferred embodiment of the drain fitting according to the invention provides that the inlet channel is provided with a water-pressure actuated closure element. By the closure element of the inlet channel is protected against the ingress of contaminants from the bath.

Das Verschlusselement ist vorzugsweise in Form eines gummielastischen Dichtringes ausgeführt. Ein solcher Dichtring bietet einerseits in Verbindung mit einem entsprechenden Dichtsitz eine zuverlässige Dichtfunktion gegen das Eindringen von Schmutzstoffen in den Einlaufkanal, und stellt andererseits ein sehr einfaches Verschlusselement dar, das sich bei Überschreiten eines bestimmten Wasserdruckes im Einlaufkanal radial weitet und somit ein Ausströmen von Wasser aus dem Einlaufkanal in die Badewanne zulässt.The closure element is preferably designed in the form of a rubber-elastic sealing ring. Such a sealing ring, on the one hand, in conjunction with a corresponding sealing seat, offers a reliable sealing function against the ingress of contaminants in the inlet channel, and on the other hand represents a very simple closure element which expands radially when a certain water pressure in the inlet channel is exceeded and thus allows leakage of water from the inlet channel into the bathtub.

Eine weitere bevorzugte Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Ablaufarmatur besteht darin, dass die oberhalb des Ablaufventils angeordnete Abdeckung (Abdeckhaube) an ihrer Unterseite mindestens einen Vorsprung aufweist, der eine Aufweitung des Dichtringes begrenzt. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass der Dichtring bei Wasserzulauf über den Einlaufkanal nicht aus seinem Sitz springt, was seine Dichtfunktion aufheben würde.A further preferred embodiment of the drain fitting according to the invention consists in that the cover (cover hood) arranged above the drain valve has at least one projection on its underside, which delimits a widening of the sealing ring. This ensures that the sealing ring does not jump out of its seat when the water inlet via the inlet channel, which would cancel its sealing function.

Um bei flacher Bauhöhe der Abdeckung (Abdeckhaube) eine möglichst hohe Einlaufleistung bzw. einen möglichst großen Einlaufquerschnitt realisieren zu können, sieht eine weitere bevorzugte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vor, dass der Einlaufkanal mit einem ringförmigen Einlaufstück versehen ist, welches einen sich im Wesentlichen radial erstreckenden Ringspalt aufweist, der zum Innenumfang des Einlaufstücks hin geschlossen ist. Das ringförmige Einlaufstück kann relativ flach ausgebildet werden. Der Umfang bzw. die Kreislänge des Ringspaltes ergibt trotz einer flachen Ausführung des Einlaufstückes dennoch einen relativ großen freien Strömungsquerschnitt.In order to be able to realize the highest possible inlet performance or the largest possible inlet cross-section at a flat overall height of the cover, the inlet channel is provided with an annular inlet piece, which has a substantially radially extending annular gap has, which is closed to the inner periphery of the inlet piece. The annular inlet piece can be made relatively flat. The circumference or the circle length of the annular gap results despite a flat design of the inlet piece nevertheless a relatively large free flow cross-section.

Hinsichtlich der Verwendung eines Dichtrings als wasserdruckbetätigtes Verschlusselement ist es dabei ferner günstig, wenn das Einlaufstück eine Vielzahl von mit dem Ringspalt kommunizierenden Ausströmöffnungen aufweist. Die Ausströmöffnungen sind dabei vorzugsweise so angeordnet, dass sie an der Unterseite des ringförmigen Einlaufstückes münden. Letzteres ist für eine zuverlässige Funktion des Dichtrings günstig und stellt zudem sicher, dass bei hoher oder höchster Wasserzulaufleistung und demontierter Abdeckung kein Wasser nach oben bzw. aus der Badewanne spritzt.With regard to the use of a sealing ring as wasserdruckbetätigter closure element, it is also advantageous if the inlet piece a variety of with the Having annular gap communicating outflow openings. The outflow openings are preferably arranged so that they open at the bottom of the annular inlet piece. The latter is favorable for a reliable function of the sealing ring and also ensures that at high or highest water supply and disassembled cover no water splashes up or out of the bath.

Nach einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Abdeckung drehfest und lösbar an dem Einlaufstück gehalten. Dies ermöglicht ein schnelles und einfaches Entfernen der Abdeckung zu Reinigungszwecken. Die drehfeste, jedoch lösbare Festlegung der Abdeckung an dem Einlaufstück ist nach einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Ablaufgarnitur dadurch realisiert, dass an der Unterseite der Abdeckung Vorsprünge vorgesehen sind, mittels denen die Abdeckung form- und kraftschlüssig mit dem Einlaufstück verbindbar ist. Besonders bevorzugt ist dabei eine Ausgestaltung, bei der am Innenumfang des Einlaufstückes Rippen zur Festlegung der Abdeckung ausgebildet sind. Die Rippen dienen dabei als Anlageflächen und/oder Klemmelemente für die an der Unterseite der Abdeckung angeordneten Vorsprünge.According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover is rotatably and releasably held to the inlet piece. This allows a quick and easy removal of the cover for cleaning purposes. The non-rotatable, but releasable fixing of the cover to the inlet piece is realized according to a preferred embodiment of the inventive drain set in that on the underside of the cover projections are provided by means of which the cover form-fitting and non-positively connected to the inlet piece. Particularly preferred is an embodiment in which ribs for fixing the cover are formed on the inner circumference of the inlet piece.

Mit 15 ist eine Abdeckung (Abdeckhaube) bezeichnet, die den Ventilkegel 8 verdeckt, jedoch im montierten Zustand am Wannenboden einen mehrere Millimeter hohen Ablaufspalt 16 belässt (Fig. 3).15 a cover (cover) is referred to, which conceals the valve cone 8, but leaves a multi-millimeter high outlet gap 16 in the assembled state at the bottom of the tub ( Fig. 3 ).

Erfindungsgemäß weist das Ablaufgehäuse 1 einen Wasserzulaufkanal (Überströmkanal) 1.10 auf. Der Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 schließt sich an den kleineren (1.5) der beiden Anschlussstutzen des Ablaufgehäuses (Ablaufkörpers) 1 an. Der Anschlussstutzen 1.5 ist ebenfalls mit einem Außengewinde versehen. In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist an dem Anschlussstutzen 1.5 ein bogenförmiges Anschlussrohrstück 17 mittels einer Überwurfmutter 18 angeschlossen. Das Anschlussrohrstück 17 dient dem Anschluss einer (nicht gezeigten) Wasserzulaufleitung.According to the invention, the drain housing 1 has a water inlet channel (overflow channel) 1.10. The water inlet channel 1.10 connects to the smaller (1.5) of the two connecting pieces of the drain body (drain body) 1 at. The connecting piece 1.5 is also with a Provided external thread. In the illustrated embodiment, an arcuate connecting pipe piece 17 is connected by means of a union nut 18 to the connecting piece 1.5. The connecting pipe piece 17 serves to connect a (not shown) water supply line.

Der Wasserzulaufkanal (Überströmkanal) 1.10 ist in die Wandung des rohrstutzenförmigen Abschnitts 1.1 des Ablaufgehäuses 1 integriert. Er durchdringt den ringförmigen Absatz 1.9 mit radialem Abstand zur kreisringförmigen Ablauföffnung 11 bzw. zum Ventilkegel 8 und schließt bündig mit der Oberkante des Kragens 1.8 ab. Die Oberkante des Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 ist dabei schräg ausgebildet. Sie verläuft im Wesentlichen parallel zur Oberfläche des konisch ausgebildeten Absatzes 1.9.The water inlet channel (overflow) 1.10 is integrated into the wall of the pipe socket-shaped portion 1.1 of the drain housing 1. It penetrates the annular shoulder 1.9 at a radial distance from the annular drain opening 11 or the valve cone 8 and terminates flush with the upper edge of the collar 1.8. The upper edge of the water inlet channel 1.10 is formed obliquely. It runs essentially parallel to the surface of the conical shoulder 1.9.

An dem Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 ist ein Einlaufkanal 19 angeschlossen, der im montierten Zustand oberhalb des Ablaufventils und unterhalb der Abdeckung 15 mündet.At the water inlet channel 1.10 an inlet channel 19 is connected, which opens in the assembled state above the drain valve and below the cover 15.

An dem Einlaufkanal 19 ist ein ringförmiges Einlaufstück 19.1 angeformt, das einen sich im Wesentlichen radial erstreckenden Ringspalt 19.2 aufweist. Der Ringspalt 19.2 ist zum Innenumfang des Einlaufstücks 19 hin geschlossen und kommuniziert mit einer Vielzahl von Ausströmöffnungen 19.3. Die Ausströmöffnungen 19.3 sind nahe am Außenumfang des ringförmigen Einlaufstückes 19.1 angeordnet und münden an dessen Unterseite. Sie sind vorzugsweise gleichmäßig zueinander beabstandet auf einem gemeinsamen Teilkreis angeordnet.At the inlet channel 19, an annular inlet piece 19.1 is formed, which has a substantially radially extending annular gap 19.2. The annular gap 19.2 is closed to the inner circumference of the inlet piece 19 and communicates with a plurality of outflow openings 19.3. The outflow openings 19.3 are arranged close to the outer circumference of the annular inlet piece 19.1 and open at the bottom thereof. They are preferably evenly spaced from each other on a common pitch circle.

Wie in den Figuren 8 und 10 gezeigt ist, ist die Höhe bzw. Breite des Ringspaltes 19.2 am Außenumfang des Einlaufstückes 19.1 erweitert. Die Erweiterung bildet einen unteren sowie einen oberen ringförmigen Absatz 19.4, 19.5. Die Ausströmöffnungen 19.3 zweigen vom unteren Absatz 19.4 ab.As in the FIGS. 8 and 10 is shown, the height or width of the annular gap 19.2 on the outer circumference of the inlet piece 19.1 is extended. The extension forms a lower and an upper annular shoulder 19.4, 19.5. The outflow openings 19.3 branch off from the lower paragraph 19.4.

In der Erweiterung des Ringspaltes 19.2 ist ein gummielastischer Dichtring (O-Ring) 20 aufgenommen. Die umlaufenden Kanten der beiden Absätze 19.4, 19.5 des Ringspaltes bilden dabei einen Dichtsitz für den Dichtring 20. Der Dichtring 20 weist ein im Wesentlichen kreisscheibenförmiges Querschnittsprofil auf und ist so dimensioniert, dass er in seiner in den Figuren 9 und 10 dargestellten Ruheposition mit leichter Vorspannung an den beiden umlaufenden Kanten der Absätze 19.4, 19.5 anliegt und so den Ringspalt 19.2 abdichtet (verschließt).In the extension of the annular gap 19.2 a rubber-elastic sealing ring (O-ring) 20 is added. The peripheral edges of the two paragraphs 19.4, 19.5 of the annular gap thereby form a sealing seat for the sealing ring 20. The sealing ring 20 has a substantially circular disk-shaped cross-sectional profile and is dimensioned so that it in his in the FIGS. 9 and 10 shown rest position with slight bias to the two peripheral edges of paragraphs 19.4, 19.5 and so seals the annular gap 19.2 (closes).

Im montierten Zustand ist der Einlaufkanal 19 in den Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 eingeschoben oder eingesteckt. In den Figuren 5 und 6 ist zu erkennen, dass das in den Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 einsteckbare Ende des Einlaufkanals 19 gegenüber dessen Längsachse abgeschrägt ist.In the assembled state, the inlet channel 19 is inserted or plugged into the water inlet channel 1.10. In the FIGS. 5 and 6 It can be seen that the insertable into the water inlet channel 1.10 end of the inlet channel 19 is chamfered with respect to its longitudinal axis.

Der Einlaufkanal 19 ist an seiner Außenseite mit einer ebenfalls schräg zur Längsachse verlaufenden Ringnut 19.6 versehen, in die ein Dichtring 21 eingesetzt ist. Alternativ hierzu kann auch der Wasserzulaufkanal 10.1 an seiner Innenseite mit einer Ringnut und einem entsprechenden Dichtring versehen sein.The inlet channel 19 is provided on its outside with a likewise oblique to the longitudinal axis extending annular groove 19.6, in which a sealing ring 21 is inserted. Alternatively, the water inlet channel 10.1 may be provided on its inside with an annular groove and a corresponding sealing ring.

Das an dem Einlaufkanal 19 einteilig angeformte ringförmige Einlaufstück 19.1 weist nach unten vorstehende Abstandshalter 19.7 auf.The integrally formed on the inlet channel 19 annular inlet piece 19.1 has downwardly projecting spacers 19.7.

Die Abstandshalter 19.7 sind ring- bzw. hülsenförmig ausgebildet und so angeordnet, dass zumindest zwei von ihnen jeweils einen Kopf einer der Befestigungsschrauben 13 formschlüssig aufnehmen und umgreifen. Die Köpfe der so in den Abstandshaltern 19.7 aufgenommenen Befestigungsschrauben 13 weisen Ringnute 13.1 mit darin eingesetzten Klemmringen (Gummiringen) 22 auf. Der formschlüssig in der Ringnut 13.1 gehaltene Klemmring 22 bewirkt eine reibschlüssige Verbindung der Befestigungsschraube 13 mit dem Abstandshalter 19.7 des Einlaufstücks 19. Zudem ergibt sich durch den am Einlaufkanal 19 gehaltenen Dichtring 21 eine reibschlüssige Verbindung von Einlaufstück 19.1 und Ablaufgehäuse 1.The spacers 19.7 are ring-shaped or sleeve-shaped and arranged so that at least two of them each receive and embrace a head of one of the fastening screws 13 in a form-fitting manner. The heads of the so received in the spacers 19.7 mounting screws 13 have ring 13.1 with inserted therein clamping rings (rubber rings) 22. The positively held in the annular groove 13.1 clamping ring 22 causes a frictional connection of the fastening screw 13 with the spacer 19.7 of the inlet piece 19. In addition, results from the inlet channel 19 held seal 21 a frictional connection of inlet piece 19.1 and drain housing. 1

Um ein Lösen des Einlaufkanals 19 vom Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 infolge des Wasserdruckes zu verhindern, ist eine (13") der Befestigungsschrauben mit einer Gewindebohrung 13.2 zum Einschrauben einer das Einlaufstück 19.1 fixierenden Halteschraube 23 versehen. Die Gewindebohrung 13.2 mündet dabei an der Kopfoberseite der Befestigungsschraube 13' (Fig. 5).In order to prevent a loosening of the inlet channel 19 from the water inlet channel 1.10 as a result of the water pressure, one (13 ") of the fastening screws is provided with a threaded bore 13.2 for screwing in a retaining screw 23 fixing the inlet piece 19.1. ( Fig. 5 ).

Zum Einschrauben der Halteschraube 23 weist das Einlaufstück 19.1 eine Bohrung (Durchbrechung) auf, die in den Hohlraum eines der ringförmigen Abstandshalter 19.7 mündet. Der Kopf der Halteschraube 23 ist in einer Vertiefung 19.8 in der Oberseite des Einlaufstückes 19.1 aufgenommen, so dass der Schraubenkopf nicht über die Oberseite des Einlaufstückes 19.1 vorsteht.To screw in the retaining screw 23, the inlet piece 19.1 has a bore (opening), which opens into the cavity of one of the annular spacers 19.7. The head of the retaining screw 23 is received in a recess 19.8 in the top of the inlet piece 19.1, so that the screw head does not project beyond the top of the inlet piece 19.1.

Die Abdeckung (Abdeckhaube) 15 weist an ihrer Unterseite Vorsprünge 15.1 auf, mittels denen sie form- und kraftschlüssig mit dem Einlaufstück 19.1 verbindbar ist. Hierzu sind am Innenumfang des Einlaufstückes Rippen (Streben) 19.9 zur drehfesten Festlegung der Abdeckung 15 ausgebildet. Die Rippen (Streben) 19.9 sind brückenförmig am Innenumfang des Einlaufstückes 19.1 angebunden oder angeformt. Sie erstrecken sich im Wesentlichen geradlinig und begrenzen mit dem ringförmigen Einlaufstück 19.1 jeweils einen kreisscheibenabschnittförmigen Spalt.The cover (cover) 15 has on its underside projections 15.1, by means of which it is positively and non-positively connected to the inlet piece 19.1. For this purpose, ribs (struts) 19.9 for rotationally fixed fixing of the cover 15 are formed on the inner circumference of the inlet piece. The ribs (struts) 19.9 are bridged or integrally connected to the inner circumference of the inlet piece 19.1. They extend substantially rectilinearly and bound with the annular inlet piece 19.1 each have a circular disk-shaped gap.

Die zwischen den Rippen 19.9 des Einlaufstückes reibschlüssig einsteckbaren Vorsprünge 15.1 der Abdeckung 15 sind kreisbogenförmig ausgebildet und auf einem gemeinsamen Teilkreis gleichmäßig zueinander beabstandet angeordnet. Die Abdeckung 15 weist an ihrer Unterseite zudem einen Vorsprung 15.2 auf, der eine Aufweitung des Dichtringes 20 begrenzt (siehe Fig. 8).The between the ribs 19.9 of the inlet piece frictionally insertable projections 15.1 of the cover 15 are circular arc-shaped and arranged uniformly spaced on a common pitch circle. The cover 15 also has on its underside a projection 15.2, which limits an expansion of the sealing ring 20 (see Fig. 8 ).

Nachfolgend wird kurz die Funktionsweise der Ablaufarmatur erläutert. Die erfindungsgemäße Ablaufarmatur ermöglicht es, eine Badewanne 10 mit Wasser zu befüllen und die mit Wasser befüllte Badewanne zu entleeren. Durch den Überlaufanschluss 1.6 wird bei ununterbrochenem Wasserzulauf verhindert, dass Wasser über den oberen Rand der Badewanne 10 in das Badezimmer überläuft.Below, the operation of the drain fitting is explained briefly. The drain fitting according to the invention makes it possible to fill a bathtub 10 with water and to empty the water-filled bathtub. Through the overflow port 1.6 is prevented in uninterrupted water supply that water overflows over the upper edge of the bath 10 into the bathroom.

Die Befüllung der Badewanne 10 erfolgt über den im Ablaufgehäuse 1 integrierten Wasserzulaufkanal 1.10 und den darin eingesteckten Einlaufkanal 19, der mit dem ringförmigen Einlaufstück 19.1 versehen ist, dessen Ausströmöffnungen 19.3 oberhalb des Ablaufventils und unterhalb der Abdeckung 15 münden. Der Ringspalt 19.2 des Einlaufstückes 19.1 ist durch den gummielastischen Dichtring 20 gegen das Eindringen von Schmutzstoffen aus der Badewanne 10 abgesichert.The filling of the bath 10 takes place via the integrated water inlet channel 1.10 in the drain housing 1 and the inlet channel 19 inserted therein, which is provided with the annular inlet piece 19.1, whose outflow openings 19.3 above the drain valve and below the cover 15 open. The annular gap 19.2 of the inlet piece 19.1 is secured by the rubber-elastic sealing ring 20 against the ingress of contaminants from the bath 10.

Sobald der Druck des über den Anschlussstutzen 1.5 zulaufenden Wassers einen bestimmten Wert übersteigt, wird der Dichtring (O-Ring) 20 radial geweitet und das Wasser strömt über die Ausströmöffnungen 19.3 in die Wanne 10. Wird der Wasserzulauf gestoppt oder fällt der Druck des zulaufenden Wassers unter einem bestimmten Wert, so stellt sich der gummielastische Dichtring 20 zurück und dichtet den Ringspalt 19.2 des Einlaufstückes 19.1 ab.As soon as the pressure of the water flowing in via the connecting pipe 1.5 exceeds a certain value, the sealing ring (O-ring) 20 is widened radially and the water flows via the outflow openings 19.3 into the trough 10. If the water supply is stopped or the pressure of the incoming water drops below a certain value, so the rubber-elastic sealing ring 20 is back and seals the annular gap 19.2 of the inlet piece 19.1 from.
