Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anschlusseinrichtung für Auslaufarmaturen, mit einer Anschlussdose, die in eine Öffnung einer Wand einführbar ist und einen Flansch aufweist, der an einer Rückseite der Wand an diese anlegbar ist.The invention relates to a connection device for outlet fittings, with a junction box, which is insertable into an opening of a wall and having a flange which can be applied to a rear side of the wall to this.

Eine solche Anschlusseinrichtung ermöglicht die Montage einer Auslaufarmatur bei Brauchwasser-Installationen. Eine solche Anschlusseinrichtung ist zum Stand der Technik beispielsweise durch die DE-U-90 17843 bekannt geworden. Zum Montieren der Anschlussdose an einer Wand, beispielsweise einer Gipskartonwand wird diese an einen Durchbruch der Wand rückseitig an diese angelegt. Mittels Schrauben wird die Anschlussdose von der Vorderseite der Wand her angeschraubt, wobei die Schrauben in Durchgangslöcher der Wand liegend in den Flansch des Dosenkörpers eingedreht werden. Da der Flansch des Dosenkörpers beim Eindrehen der Schrauben verdeckt ist, ist eine solche Montage vergleichsweise schwierig. Der Abstand der Schrauben zum Rand der Wandöffnung ist vergleichsweise klein, so dass hier die Gefahr einer ungenügenden Befestigung besteht.Such a connection device allows the installation of an outlet fitting in service water installations. Such a connection device is known in the art, for example by the DE-U-90 17843 known. To mount the junction box on a wall, such as a plasterboard wall it is applied to an opening of the wall on the back of this. By means of screws, the junction box is screwed from the front of the wall, wherein the screws are screwed into through holes of the wall in the flange of the can body. Since the flange of the can body is hidden when screwing the screws, such a mounting is relatively difficult. The distance between the screws to the edge of the wall opening is relatively small, so that there is a risk of insufficient attachment here.

Die EP-B-0 166234 offenbart eine Anschlusseinrichtung, bei welcher die Anschlussdose einen Flansch aufweist, in den Muttern eingegossen sind. Diese Muttern erlauben ebenfalls eine Befestigung der Anschlussdose mit frontseitig in die Wand eingeschraubten Schrauben. Eine Montage ist dann besonders schwierig, wenn die Rückseite der Wand bei der Montage nicht oder nur schwer zugänglich ist.The EP-B-0166234 discloses a connection device in which the junction box has a flange, are cast in the nuts. These nuts also allow attachment of the junction box with screwed in front of the wall screws. An assembly is particularly difficult if the back of the wall during installation is difficult or impossible to access.

Bekannt sind auch Anschlusseinrichtungen, bei denen die Anschlussdose an ein Montagegestell angeschraubt wird. Die Montage ist hier wesentlich einfacher, da der Flansch nicht verdeckt ist.Also known are connection devices in which the junction box is screwed to a mounting frame. The assembly is much easier here, since the flange is not covered.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Anschlusseinrichtung der genannten Art zu schaffen, welche die genannten Nachteile vermeidet.
