Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wasserarmatur, insbesondere für Warm- und Kaltwasser, mit einem Armaturensockel, der einen Flansch zur Anlage an ein Sanitärmöbel oder dergleichen aufweist, und In dem eine den Wasserdurchfluss regelnde Kartusche vorgesehen ist, und mit einem Wasserauslauf, der mit der Kartusche über einen Kanal strömungsverbunden ist.The invention relates to a water fitting, in particular for hot and cold water, with a fitting base having a flange for engagement with a sanitary furniture or the like, and in which a water flow regulating cartridge is provided, and with a water outlet, with the cartridge over a channel is fluidly connected.

Wasserarmaturen dieser Art werden üblicherweise als Einhebelarmaturen bezeichnet, und weisen bevorzugt sowohl einen Kaltwasser- als auch einen Warmwasseranachluss auf. Ober diesen Hebel werden in der Kartusche zwei Scheiben mit Bohrungen gegeneinander verdreht, und das vermischte Wasser tritt an derselben Seite aus der Kartusche wieder aus, an der die Zulaufanschlüsse vorgesehen sind. Von dort weg führt ein Kanal zum Wasserauslauf. Grundsätzlich kann auf diese Weise natürlich auch eine Armatur gebaut sein, die nur einen Wasserzulaufanschluss für kaltes oder warmes Wasser aufweist, und daher keine Mischfunktion ausführen kann.Water fittings of this type are commonly referred to as Einhebelarmaturen, and preferably have both a cold water and a Warmwasseranachluss on. Through this lever, two discs with holes are rotated in the cartridge against each other, and the mixed water exits on the same side of the cartridge from where the inlet ports are provided. From there, a canal leads to the water outlet. Basically, in this way, of course, a fitting to be built, which has only one water inlet connection for cold or hot water, and therefore can not perform a mixing function.

Wasserarmaturen sind im Sanitärbereich nach unterschiedlichen Gesichtspunkten ausgebildet. So gibt es Waschtischarmaturen mit einem Armaturensockel, der einen an der Waschbeckenoberflache aufliegenden Flansch aufweist. Durch eine Bohrung im Waschbecken werden einerseits die Wasseranschlüsse und andererseits Befestigungselemente durchgeführt, mittels denen die unterseitige Fixierung möglich ist. Die Kartusche ist in den Armaturensockel so weit oberhalb des Flansches eingesetzt, dass der Wasserauslauf von der Unterseite der Kartusche seitlich weggeführt werden kann. Bei einer weiteren Ausführung einer derartigen Waschtischarmatur ragt das untere Ende des Armaturensockels auch noch durch die Waschtischbohrung nach unten und kann beispielsweise mittels einer Überwurfmutter an der Unterseite fixiert werden. Die Kartusche ist dennoch oberhalb des Wasserauslaufes angeordnet.Water fittings are designed in the sanitary area according to different aspects. So there are washstand fittings with a fitting base, which has a resting on the sink surface flange. Through a hole in the sink, on the one hand, the water connections and, on the other hand, fastening elements are carried out, by means of which the fixation on the underside is possible. The cartridge is inserted in the fitting base so far above the flange that the water outlet can be led away from the bottom of the cartridge laterally. In a further embodiment of such a washbasin fitting, the lower end of the fitting base also protrudes down through the washbasin bore and can be fixed to the underside, for example by means of a union nut. The cartridge is still located above the water outlet.

Eine weitere Ausführung von Sanitärarmaturen ist für die Wandmontage, insbesondere für die Unterputzmontage ausgebildet. Bei diesen ist der Armaturensockel in eine Ausnehmung der Wand eingelassen, die durch den Flansch abgedeckt ist. Im Raum ist daher im Wesentlichen nur der Bedienungshebel sichtbar. Vom Armaturensockel führt an der Unterseite der Kartusche der Wasserkanal in Form eines getrennt zu verlegenden Rohrstückes od. dgl. zum Wasserauslauf, der beispielsweise für eine Badewanne in der Nähe und für eine Dusche weiter entfernt in der Höhe an der Wand vorgesehen ist. (Der Wasserauslauf für Badewanne oder Dusche ist ebenfalls ein Unterputzeinbauteil mit eigener Abdeckung und, wie oben bereits erwähnt über ein Rohrleitungsstück und der Armatur verbunden.Another embodiment of sanitary fittings is designed for wall mounting, especially for flush mounting. In these, the fitting base is embedded in a recess of the wall, which is covered by the flange. In the room, therefore, essentially only the operating lever is visible. From the fitting base leads at the bottom of the cartridge, the water channel od in the form of a piece of pipe to be laid separately. Like. To the water outlet, which is provided for example for a bathtub in the vicinity and for a shower further away in height on the wall. (The water spout for bath or shower is also a Unterputzeinbauteil with its own cover and, as already mentioned above a piece of pipe and the fitting connected.

In DE 10 2007 007 400 A ist eine Sanitärarmatur für die Wandmontage offenbart. Aus diesem DE-Dokument ist der Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1 bekannt.In DE 10 2007 007 400 A is a sanitary fitting for wall mounting revealed. From this DE document the preamble of independent claim 1 is known.

Die Erfindung schlägt nun eine alternative Armatur vor, bei der in jeder Anwendung nur der Wasserauslauf und der Bedienungshebel sichtbar ist. Insbesondere soll dies bei Einhebeiwaschtischarmaturen erfüllt sein, bei denen dies bisher nicht möglich ist.The invention now proposes an alternative fitting in which only the water outlet and the operating lever is visible in each application. In particular, this is to be fulfilled in Einhebeiwaschtischarmaturen in which this has not been possible.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass der Wasserauslauf an den Flansch des Armaturensockels anschließt, und ein Abschnitt des Kanals durch den Flansch verläuft.According to the invention this is achieved in that the water outlet connects to the flange of the fitting base, and a portion of the channel extends through the flange.

Auf diese Weise ist bei jedem Armaturentyp, insbesondere aber bei der Waschtischarmatur über der Oberfläche nur der Flansch sichtbar, aus dem der Bedienungshebel ragt und von dem der beliebig geformte Wasserauslauf absteht, während der Armaturensockel vollständig im unsichtbaren Einbaubereich liegt, und die vollständig in den Armaturensockel versenkte Kartusche über die im Flansch eingesetzte Kartuschenabdeckung zugänglich ist.In this way, in each type of fitting, but especially in the washbasin fitting above the surface, only the flange visible from which protrudes the operating lever and protrudes from the arbitrarily shaped water spout, while the fitting base is completely in the invisible installation area, and completely in the fitting base Recessed cartridge is accessible via the cartridge cover inserted in the flange.

Eine optisch besonders ansprechende Ausführung sieht vor, dass der Wasserauslauf zumindest ein flaches Kanalelement aufweist, das an der Umfangsfläche des Flansches montiert ist, wobei der Kanal etwa Z-förmig verläuft und einen an der Umfangsfläche des Flansches in den Wasserauslauf mündenden Abschnitt aufweist. Verbindungselemente für das flache Kanalelement erstrecken sich dabei insbesondere parallel zum Abschnitt des Kanals durch den Flansch. Der Flansch ist vorzugsweise rechteckig oder quadratisch und das an eine Seitenfläche des Flansches anschließende Kanalelement entspricht in seiner Breite insbesondere der Länge dieser Seitenfläche. Eine derartige Armatur kann in eine Bohrung eines Waschbeckens, eine Bohrung oder Ausnehmung einer Waschtisch-abdeckung oder in eine Ausnehmung einer Wand eingesetzt sein.An optically particularly appealing embodiment provides that the water outlet has at least one flat channel element which is mounted on the peripheral surface of the flange, wherein the channel is approximately Z-shaped and has a opening on the peripheral surface of the flange in the water outlet section. In this case, connecting elements for the flat channel element extend in particular parallel to the section of the channel through the flange. The flange is preferably rectangular or square and the adjoining a side surface of the flange channel element corresponds in width in particular the length of this side surface. Such a fitting may be inserted into a bore of a sink, a bore or recess of a vanity cover or in a recess of a wall.

Hereinafter, the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the figures of the accompanying drawings, without being limited thereto. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 an oblique view of a first embodiment of a washbasin fitting,
  • Fig. 2 a view of the fitting after Fig. 1 from the left,
  • Fig. 3 a side view,
  • Fig. 4 a section along the line IV-IV of Fig. 3 .

Eine Armatur weist ein Armaturengehäuse bzw. einen Armaturensockel 2 auf, in dem eine den Wasserdurchfluss regelnde Kartusche 6 angeordnet ist, die durch einen äußeren Bedienungshebel 12 betätigt werden kann. Die Armatur weist weiters einen Flansch 3 auf, der an der Oberfläche 1 eines Waschtisches (Fig. 6 bis 8) oder einer Wand (Fig. 5) anliegt. Der Flansch 3 stellt somit die Trennung zwischen dem sichtbaren Bereich der Armatur, der den Bedienungshebel 12 und den Wasserauslauf 16 umfasst, und dem unsichtbaren, weil eingebauten Bereich dar, der den Armaturensockel 2 und im Fall einer Waschtischarmatur unterseitige Befestigungselemente 4 in üblicher Weise umfasst. Die Kartusche 6 hat an der dem Bedienungshebel 12 gegenüberliegenden Seite zwei Wassereinlässe sowie einen Wasserausgang, wenn die Armatur eine Mischarmatur ist, die an einen Kaltwasserzufluss 9 und einen Heißwasserzufluss 8 angeschlossen werden (Fig. 7). Die Armatur kann aber auch nur einen Wassereinlass für Kalt- oder für Heißwasser aufweisen. Gegebenenfalls kann sie mit einem nicht gezeigten Thermostaten versehen sein, der die Wasserauslauftemperatur begrenzt.A fitting has a fitting housing or a fitting base 2 in which a water flow-regulating cartridge 6 is arranged, which can be actuated by an external operating lever 12. The fitting further comprises a flange 3, which on the surface 1 of a vanity ( Fig. 6 to 8 ) or a wall ( Fig. 5 ) is present. The flange 3 thus represents the separation between the visible region of the fitting, which comprises the operating lever 12 and the water outlet 16, and the invisible, because built-in area comprising the fitting base 2 and in the case of a washbasin fitting, lower-side fastening elements 4 in a conventional manner. The cartridge 6 has on the side opposite the operating lever 12 side two water inlets and a water outlet when the valve is a mixing valve, which are connected to a cold water inlet 9 and a hot water inlet 8 ( Fig. 7 ). The fitting can also have only one water inlet for cold or hot water. Optionally, it may be provided with a thermostat, not shown, which limits the water outlet temperature.

Die Kartusche 6 beinhaltet in bekannter Weise insbesondere keramische Dichtscheiben und ist nicht Gegenstand der Erfindung, sodass sich eine nähere Beschreibung erübrigt. Die Kartusche 6 ist im Armaturensockel 2 vollständig in den eingebauten Bereich der Armatur eingelassen, sodass außerhalb der Kartuschenabdeckung 7 im Flansch 3 nur der Bedienungshebel 12 angeordnet ist. Der Wasserauslauf 16, der in beliebiger Weise gestaltet sein kann, schließt an den Flansch 3 an. Vom Wasserausgang der Kartusche 6 an der Unterseite erstreckt sich ein Kanal 10 bis zum Flansch 3, der in seinem Inneren einen Abschnitt 11 aufweist, der sich im Wasserauslauf 16 fortsetzt. Die Strömungsverbindung zwischen der Kartuschenunterseite und dem Wasserauslauf 16 verläuft somit durch den Flansch 3.The cartridge 6 includes in a known manner, in particular ceramic sealing discs and is not the subject of the invention, so that a more detailed description is unnecessary. The cartridge 6 is completely embedded in the fitting base 2 in the built-in area of the fitting, so that outside the cartridge cover 7 in the flange 3, only the operating lever 12 is arranged. The water outlet 16, which may be designed in any way, closes on the flange 3 on. From the water outlet of the cartridge 6 at the bottom, a channel 10 extends to the flange 3, which has in its interior a portion 11 which continues in the water outlet 16. The flow connection between the cartridge bottom and the water outlet 16 thus passes through the flange 3.

Wenn die Kartusche 6 exzentrisch im Armaturensockel 2 angeordnet ist, verbleibt, wie aus den Fig. 4 und 6 ersichtlich, Platz für den Kanal 10 innerhalb des Armaturensockels 2, wobei ein Abschnitt parallel zur Kartuschenachse liegt. Insgesamt weist der Kanal 10 eine Z-Form auf, wenn der Wasserauslauf 16 am Flansch 3 an seiner Umfangsfläche angesetzt ist, wie dies die Fig. 1 bis 7 zeigen. In der Ausführung nach Fig. 8 ist der Kanal 10 L-förmig, da der Wasserauslauf 16, wie schematisch gezeigt, von der Oberseite des Flansches 3 hochsteht.When the cartridge 6 is eccentrically arranged in the fitting base 2, as shown in FIGS Fig. 4 and 6 can be seen, space for the channel 10 within the fitting base 2, wherein a portion is parallel to the cartridge axis. Overall, the channel 10 has a Z-shape when the water outlet 16 is attached to the flange 3 on its peripheral surface, as the Fig. 1 to 7 demonstrate. In the execution after Fig. 8 is the channel 10 L-shaped, since the water outlet 16, as shown schematically, from the top of the flange 3 is upright.

Die in den Figuren gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiele weisen jeweils einen Wasserauslauf 16 auf, der aus zwei flachen Kanalelementen 13, 14 zusammengesetzt ist, deren Verbindung durch Verbindungselemente 15, Insbesondere Schrauben erfolgt, die sich parallel zum Wasserkanal über die Länge des Kanalelementes 13, 14 erstrecken, und an der jeweils gegenüberliegenden Seite betätigbar sind. Auf diese Weise sind die Köpfe der Verbindungselemente 15 für das Kanalelement 14 an der mit der Anlagefläche des Flansches 3 fluchtenden Schmalseite des Kanalelementes 13 (Fig. 4) und somit im montierten Zustand unsichtbar. Die Verbindungselemente 15 für die Befestigung des flachen Kanalelementes 13 an der Umfangfläche des Flansches 3 sind ebenfalls parallel zum Abschnitt 11 des Kanals 10 vorgesehen, und deren Köpfe an der dem Kanalelement 13 gegenüberliegenden Seite zugänglich (Fig. 2). Im Falle einer Waschtischarmatur sind sie daher ebenfalls außerhalb des Sichtbereiches des Benützers. Die Kanalelemente 13, 14 können in jedem beliebigen Winkel angeordnet werden und die Mehrteiligkeit des Wasserauslaufes 16 eröffnet eine Reihe von unterschiedlichen Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten.The embodiments shown in the figures each have a water outlet 16, which is composed of two flat channel elements 13, 14, the connection by connecting elements 15, in particular screws, which extend parallel to the water channel over the length of the channel element 13, 14, and can be actuated on the opposite side. In this way, the heads of the connecting elements 15 for the channel element 14 at the aligned with the contact surface of the flange 3 narrow side of the channel element 13 (FIGS. Fig. 4 ) and thus in the mounted state invisible. The connecting elements 15 for the attachment of the flat channel element 13 on the peripheral surface of the flange 3 are also provided parallel to the portion 11 of the channel 10, and their heads on the channel member 13 opposite side accessible ( Fig. 2 ). In the case of a washbasin fitting, they are therefore also outside the field of view of the user. The channel elements 13, 14 can be arranged at any angle and the multi-part of the water outlet 16 opens up a number of different design options.
