Definitions
- the invention relates to a shower head for selectively operating in at least two modes, with a housing and a valve disposed therein, which has a arranged in a water channel valve member which is connected to an actuator and for opening or closing or switching the water channel with at least cooperates with a valve seat and with a Pulsatorrad, which is connectable to the water channel and releasably lockable with a operatively connected to the actuator Umstellorgan.
- a showerhead of this type has become known in the art from EP-A-0 732 148.
- an operating mode is possible in which a shower jet is interrupted periodically.
- a pulsator wheel is provided, which is rotatably mounted in an annular space.
- the Pulsatorrad is equipped with a variety of a kind of turbine blades. By appropriate inflow of water, the Pulsatorrad can be rotated so that it interrupts the shower jet periodically.
- the Pulsatorrad can be locked with a diverter.
- This changeover member is rod-shaped and arranged coaxially within a hollow valve body.
- the Umstellorgan is operatively connected to a rocker, which also forms the actuator. By pivoting the rocker, the Umstellorgan be moved within the valve body and thus fixed the Pulsatorrad or released.
- a shower head with a Pulsatorrad that can be locked is also known from US-A-4,010,899.
- a laterally arranged on the housing button is provided. If this is shifted inwards, then the Pulsatorrad is locked. To release this, this button must be moved outwards.
- the invention has for its object to provide a shower head of the type mentioned, which allows an even easier operation and yet structurally easier to produce.
- the actuating member rotatably mounted about a longitudinal axis of the valve member, for example, on the housing, valve housing or on an insert and is connected to the Umstellorgan that this is adjustable with a rotational movement of the actuator about said longitudinal axis, in order to lock or release the pulsator wheel mounted in a water space and, in particular, an annular channel, which water space or annular channel can be connected to the water channel.
- the Pulsatorrad can be switched on or locked with a rotational movement of the actuator about the longitudinal axis of the valve member. This allows in particular the production of the actuator as a button, which is rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the valve member.
- valve can be closed and opened.
- the valve is in particular a diverter valve. In principle, however, the valve can also be a shut-off valve.
- the shower head according to the invention is preferably designed such that it is actuated or switched by pressing and rotating the actuating member.
- a rotational movement of the actuating member for locking the Pulsatorrads counter to a rotational movement to release the locking of the Pulsatorrads In one direction of rotation thus the Pulsatorrad is switched on and in another direction of rotation it is locked. This allows a particularly simple operation of the inventive shower head.
- the Umstellorgan is arranged at a distance and parallel to the closure member. This allows independent storage of the valve body and the closure member and allows a simple and very reliable construction.
- the Umstellorgan has a pin which engages in a locked state with a lower end in the Pulsatorrad. An actuation of the Umstellorgans is then particularly simple and reliable, if said pin engages with an upper end in the actuator and is controlled at this.
- the Umstellorgan can be raised by rotating the actuator against the retroactive force of a spring to give the Pulsatorrad free.
- the actuating member can be locked.
- the shower head according to the invention can be converted into a second mode and in this the Pulsatorrad be switched on.
- the actuating member is in particular a key which is arranged on an outlet of an opposite side of the shower head. This allows the production of the shower head in a particularly compact, for example cylindrical shape.
- the valve is in particular a diverter valve, which allows a changeover between two spray modes.
- the jet type is, for example, a centrally arranged aerator.
- the water passes through peripherally arranged Düsenöffhungen to the outside.
- the Pulsatorrad be switched on, whereby a third mode is possible.
- the valve may also be a shut-off valve which, in a first position of the valve body, closes off the water channel and, in a second position, no longer closes off this water channel. In the second position, the pulsator wheel can then be activated.
- movements for locking the actuator and for releasing the locking of the Pulsatorrads are in opposite directions.
- the rotational movement of the actuator in order to solve this opposite to the rotational movement to lock it.
- the actuating member has a preferably middle basic position in which the actuating member is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the valve member.
- the water passes through a perforator to the outside and in the working position by Düsenöfrhungen to the outside, wherein in the working position the Pulsatorrad is switchable.
- FIG. 1 shows a section through an inventive shower head, the handle is broken off
- FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the shower head according to FIG. 1,
- FIG. 3 shows a further section through the shower head, wherein the pulsator wheel is switched on
- FIG. 4 shows a schematic partial view of the shower head according to the invention
- FIG. 5 shows a section along the line V-V of Fig. 4,
- FIG. 6 schematically shows a partial view of the pulsator wheel and the guide surfaces for the drive of the pulsator wheel
- Figure 7 is a view according to FIG. 4, but here is the Umstellorgan in a position arresting the Pulsatorrad and
- the shower head 1 shows a section through the shower head 1, which has a housing 2 in the usual way.
- the handle 53 is broken off, which is preferably a handle and which is hollow in a known manner and serves to supply water to a water channel 33.
- a valve V is arranged, which is a diverter valve and by hand, and in particular with the thumb, the handle 53 grasping hand, is operable.
- water can optionally be dispensed through an aerator 35 or through nozzle openings 39 arranged coaxially with the aerator 35.
- a valve housing 18 is arranged, which is sealed with seals 21 and 31 and 20 relative to the housing 2.
- an upper insert 23 and a lower insert 29 are installed, which form an upper valve seat 24 and a lower valve seat 25.
- a sealing element 26 the lower insert 29 is sealed relative to the upper insert 23.
- the valve V has a rod-shaped valve member 14 which has a longitudinal axis 45, in the longitudinal axis of this valve member 14 is adjustable so that either a double poppet 15 rests on the upper valve seat 24 or the lower valve seat 25.
- the valve member 14 has a pin 16 which is sealed with a sealing sleeve 22 relative to the valve housing 18 and which is connected at an upper end fixed to the key 3. With a sealing element 19, the valve housing 18 is sealed relative to the housing 2.
- Another pin 17 of the valve member 14 is located below the double valve cone 15 and this is slidably mounted in the lower insert 29. If the shuttle valve 15 according to FIG. 1 lies against the upper valve seat 24, then an upper passage opening 55 is closed. A lower passage opening 56, however, is open.
- the water can flow in this position of the valve member 14 from the water channel 33 through the passage opening 56 to the aerator 35 and through this outwards. If the shuttle valve 15 is in the position shown in FIG. 3, the lower passage opening 56 is closed, while the upper passage opening 55 is open. In this position, water from the water channel 33 through the passage opening 55 to the Düsenöffhungen 39 and through this flow outwards.
- the key 3 is raised. This position is determined by the stop of the shuttle valve 15 at the upper valve seat 24.
- a spring element 13 which is formed for example as a spiral spring, the key 3 is held in the position shown in Figure 1.
- This spring element 13 is supported on the one hand on the housing 2 and on the other hand on a connecting part 8 which is inserted from below into the key 3.
- Latching cam 7, which are engaged in recesses 9 of the connecting part 8 the key 3 is connected to the connecting part 8.
- the locking cams 7 are formed on a cylindrical projection 6 of the key 3. If the key 3 is pressed down against the retroactive force of the spring element 13, the shuttle valve 15 is displaced into the position shown in FIG. With sufficient water pressure, this position is held against the force of the spring element 13. If the water pressure falls below a certain value, then the valve member 14 is brought into the position shown in FIG. 1 by the tension of the spring element 13.
- the Pulsatorrad 38 is mounted in an annular space 37, which is formed by a bearing part 36, the lower insert 29 and the upper insert 23.
- the bearing part 36 also forms with a shower tray 34, the fürgangsöffiiungen 39.
- the bearing part 36 and the shower base 34 also surround the aerator 35. This is sealed with a sealing element 32 against the lower insert 29, which forms an outwardly projecting flange 30.
- the Pulsatorrad 38 is known per se and has a plurality of upwardly directed wings 44, which can be flowed through Düsenöffhungen 49, as the figure 6 reveals.
- the Pulsatorrad 38 can be locked so that it does not rotate even when acted upon by inflowing water and thus this water flows continuously without interruption through the Düsenöffhungen 39 to the outside. If the Pulsatorrad 38 is locked, so it is aligned by an engagement of the Umstellorgans 40 that fürgangsöffiiungen 61 in the Pulsatorrad 38 with the Düsenöffhungen 39 are aligned. As described below, the changeover member 40 can be operated so that the Pulsatorrad 38 can either rotate freely and thus a pulsating beam is generated or locked.
- the Umstellorgan 40 has a pin 52 which is mounted at a distance from the axis of rotation 45 and parallel to this in a bore of the valve housing 18 and in the upper insert 23 limited displaceable. With a lower end 40b, the pin 52 engages in a bore 41 of the upper insert 23. Above this lower end 40b, a support ring 43 is mounted on the pin 52, on which a spring element 42, for example a spiral spring, is supported. On the other hand, this coil spring 42 is supported on the valve housing 18. An upper end 40a is located outside or above the housing 2 within an integrally formed on the collar collar 46. With a Seal member 28, the pin 52 is sealed relative to the housing 2 and the valve housing 18.
- a head 47 is integrally formed on the pin 52, which protrudes laterally, for example according to Figures 4 and 5 and has a wedge surface 48 and a locking groove 57 on the underside.
- a web 50 is integrally formed on the valve housing 2, which also has a wedge surface 51 on the underside.
- a slider 10 is arranged, which is fixedly connected to the button 3 and the upper side has a locking cam 7, which cooperates with the locking groove 57.
- the slider 10 also has two opposite wedge surfaces 11 and 12.
- the button 3 shown in Figure 1 engages the lower end 40b of the pin 52 in the Pulsatorrad 38 and locks it.
- the Pulsatorrad 38 can not rotate thus, since wings 44 are present at this lower end 40b.
- the lower end 40b can now be raised to release the Pulsatorrads 38 in the position shown in Figure 3, in which the lower end 40b does not protrude down from the bore 41, and thus does not protrude into the path of the Pulsatorrads 38.
- the key 3 is pressed in the direction of the axis of rotation 45 and thus in the axis of the valve V down into the position shown in Figure 3.
- the grip 4 remains here in the position A shown in Figure 2.
- the key 3 is pivoted on the recessed grip 4 about the rotation axis 45 in the position A shown in Figure 2.
- the slide 10 in this case reaches the position shown in Figures 7 and 8.
- the slider 10 is thus located between the head 47 and the web 50. Since the pin 52 is no longer supported on the head 47, this pin 52 is moved by the spring element 42 back into the position shown in Figure 1.
- the lower end 40b is thus again in the range of Pulsatorrads 38. If the key 3 is released, the slider 10 moves between the head 47 and the web 50 upwards.
- the button 3 can be pivoted in the depressed position in the position B shown in Figure 2, so that the slider 10 is pushed with the wedge surface 60 below the web 50.
- the web 50 prevents the key 3 can be moved by the tension of the spring element 13 upwards.
- the shuttle valve 15 thus remains in the position shown in Figure 3, regardless of the water pressure.
- the Pulsatorrad 38 can be switched on and off with a simple pivoting movement, wherein the pivot angle according to Figure 2 is comparatively small and in particular less than 45 °.
- the first operating mode can then be set again, in which water flows out through the aerator 35.
- the key 3, which forms the actuating member is rotatably mounted, but can otherwise be configured as desired.
- the key 3 has an outer, preferably substantially cylindrical wall 59 which has a lateral surface 60 which is substantially flush with a lateral surface 54 of the housing 2.
- Valve body 46 collar
