  • the invention relates to a jet regulator with a jet regulator housing, which has in its housing interior a jet disintegrating device with a plurality of flow holes for breaking the incoming water flow into a corresponding number of individual jets and at least one spaced apart in the flow direction grid and / or network structure, wherein in the between the jet disintegrating device (3) and the adjacent grid and / or network structure arranged housing part region a plurality of oriented in the flow direction, spaced from each other and substantially over the distance between the jet disintegrating device and the adjacent grid and / or network structure extending pins are provided.
  • Jet regulators which are to form a homogeneous, non-splashing and optionally also pearly-soft water jet from the effluent from a sanitary outlet fitting water, are already known in various designs.
  • Such jet regulators regularly have a Einsetzpatrone trained and usable in the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting jet regulator housing, which has arranged in its housing interior an inflow side arranged and designed for example as a perforated plate jet disintegrator and at least one downstream in the flow direction grid or network structure.
  • This at least one grid or network structure which may be a metal screen, or may also be formed as a plastic grid, can serve as one, which from the jet disintegrator coming individual jets with air mixing mixing Strahlregulier observed.
  • the jet splitter downstream grid or network structure may also be designed as a flow straightener, which has to equalize the water jet emerging from the water outlet.
  • a jet regulator which has a jet decomposing device and a downstream in the flow direction Strahlregulier observed between a water inlet opening and a water outlet opening of its jet regulator housing.
  • the designed as a perforated plate and a number of flow holes having jet decomposing device is arranged downstream of an insert, which has an annular wall which is connected via a plurality of radial webs with a central body.
  • an annular channel is provided in each case.
  • the annular wall carries in a step-shaped portion a plurality of pins, which are arranged there in three concentric circles. Another concentric circle of pins is provided on the central body of the insert.
  • the pins point with their conically tapered pin ends in the direction of the jet disintegrating device and are each from one of the beam disintegrating device incoming individual beams irradiated in such a way that the pin ends each form a Abweisschräge for coming from the flow holes of the jet disintegrating device individual beams.
  • the measures provided for in the prior art jet regulator pins thus have a priority jet-forming effect on the water flowing through and are the deflected by them individual beams for braking, splitting and air mixing of water jets serving as flow obstacles.
  • a jet regulator which carries on the downstream side serving as a jet disintegrating perforated plate and in the region of the water outlet opening of the jet regulator housing concentric annular walls, which lead the water flowing through it in ring channels.

It is meant by “pin” each, approximately axially parallel to the flow direction-oriented projection, for example, have a square or a rectangular or otherwise elongated cross-section or may be formed as a wall portion.
  • the pins are arranged laterally outside of the oriented in the flow direction projection of the flow holes of the jet disintegrating device.
  • This arrangement of the pins in the housing interior of the jet regulator housing has the consequence that the pins are not directly illuminated by the individual jets, but serve only as a non-jet-forming acting evaporation surface outside of the irradiated by the individual beams portion.
  • the jet regulator according to the invention is characterized by a high reliability even over a longer period of time. Since the pins provided in the jet regulator according to the invention do not develop a predominantly beam-forming function, it is expedient if individual beams coming from the jet-splitting device irradiate a respective intersection of the intersecting webs of the grid and / or network structure directly, and if this is oriented in the direction of flow Projection of at least more than half of the flow holes is each aligned with a crossing node.

  • these pins can be formed, for example, to the bottom or outflow side of the jet disintegrating device.
  • a preferred embodiment according to the invention provides that the pins are additionally or instead formed on the outflow side of the jet disintegrating device and / or on the upstream side of the grid relationship or network structure adjacent thereto.

  • the pins are integrally formed on the upstream side of the adjacent grid or network structure, it may be advantageous if the pins point with their free pin ends in the direction opposite to the direction of flow, there to the closing of the Water valve in this housing part area to keep remaining water longer.
  • At least one pin has a non-round, preferably a polygonal, and in particular a cross-shaped pin cross-section.
  • a cross-shaped pin cross-section has the advantage that in its cross-section it is particularly well adapted to the lattice or network structure supporting it.
  • the pins can be clipped, glued, welded or otherwise attached to the webs of the adjacent grid and / or network structure.
  • a particularly simple and inexpensive to produce embodiment according to the invention provides that the pins are integrally formed on the supporting webs.
  • the webs forming a lattice or network structure and the pins held thereon form a particularly good functional unit when the webs carrying the pins form a throughflow plane oriented transversely and preferably at right angles to the flow direction.
  • a preferred embodiment according to the invention provides that the webs carrying the pins are arranged in a lattice-like or net-like manner, crossing each other at crossing nodes.
  • a particularly advantageous development according to the invention provides that the webs carrying the pins form the inflow-side throughflow plane of the jet regulating device and are preferably connected directly downstream of a jet decomposing device in the flow direction.
