Definitions

  • the invention relates to a siphon with a siphon housing, which has an inlet port passing through a housing wall and an outlet port passing through a housing wall, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a siphon is known from the document DE 31 09 384 known.
  • a siphon for supply lines with low inflow such as condensate lines of air conditioners or refrigerators known, which has a housing with internal partitions, which define an 'U' distance between an input and an output.
  • the arc section of the 'U' section is configured to fill with water, thereby forming an odor trap.
  • a spherical float is formed, which rests in the dry state on an annular seat in the 'U' route and closes it odor-tight, but is lifted by water when it is in the direction of Output of the 'U' section flows, whereby the float forms an odor-tight valve.
  • the housing is provided with attachment means to be attached to a fixed structure, in particular to a wall.
  • Siphone which are used for the passage of small amounts of liquid, especially condensation of air conditioning systems, just because of this low water flow rate per unit time and low flow rate problematic, since in them the self-cleaning of a siphon, the entraining water entrains dirt particles does not come into effect.
  • a siphon through which only small amounts of liquid flow, must therefore be cleaned frequently and regularly to prevent clogging of the siphon. For this reason, in the known siphon at the top of a closable by a lid opening is provided in the cleaning equipment, such as brushes, or cleaning liquids can be introduced. However, it has been shown in practice that when installed there is not enough space to introduce the cleaning agent.
  • the siphon according to the invention has a siphon housing, which has an inlet nozzle passing through a housing wall and an outlet nozzle passing through a housing wall.
  • the inlet port opens into the siphon housing in an inlet opening.
  • the outlet port opens into the siphon housing in an outlet opening.
  • an odor trap insert is provided having an insert housing in which in liquid-tight and odor-tight manner, a curved channel, in particular a channel is formed with at least one U-shaped portion having a channel inlet opening and a channel outlet opening, wherein the channel inlet opening and the Can channel outlet opening of the odor trap insert in a sealing manner with the inlet opening and the outlet opening of the siphon housing are connectable.
  • the odor trap insert thus forms a cassette that is completely, easily and quickly inserted into the siphon housing and removable again.
  • the siphon housing has a removable cover, wherein preferably the cover comprises a snap fastening.
  • the inlet opening of the inlet nozzle and the outlet opening of the outlet nozzle face the cover of the siphon housing, wherein the channel inlet opening and the channel outlet opening of the odor trap insert are formed in the rear wall of the insert housing body, so that the odor trap insert from the front, this is the cover side, on the inlet opening of the inlet nozzle and the outlet opening of the outlet are attachable and removable.
  • the channel inlet opening and the channel outlet opening of the odor trap insert are pluggable connectable to the inlet opening and the outlet opening, whereby a very easy to maintain siphon is obtained.
  • seals in particular annular elastomer seals, are provided for an optimal seal between the inlet opening and the channel inlet opening or between the outlet opening and the channel outlet opening.
  • the insert housing has a housing body and a cover which can be connected in a sealing manner to the housing body.
  • the odor trap insert can be removed as a whole and the channel formed therein, for example, cleaned by flushing with water, so that the odor trap insert is reusable. It should be emphasized that it is not necessary to clean the odor trap insert on site. If the odor trap insert is persistent clogged, it can also be easily replaced.
  • a valve in the channel of the odor trap insert is further provided to form a valve in the channel of the odor trap insert.
  • This valve can for example be realized by a float, which is arranged in the channel and, if there is no water in the channel, rests on an annular seat and closes the channel, is lifted by flowing water, however, and releases the channel.
  • the siphon is equipped with a cutaway Bauschaufsatz, which is placed on the siphon housing with the cover removed, preferably the side walls of the Bauschetzsatzes are aligned with the side walls of the siphon housing.
  • the building protection attachment serves to compensate for different installation depths.
  • the installation of the siphon is done by a hole is formed in the wall, which is at least so deep that the siphon can be completely absorbed therein.
  • On the siphon of the Bauschaufsatz is placed, which has a height such that it protrudes from the hole.
  • the cover of the siphon can be mounted on the protection cover during assembly to prevent the inside of the siphon from becoming dirty.
  • the Bauschaufsatz has a front wall.
  • the siphon is fixed in the hole together with the building protection attachment, eg by plastering.
  • the building protection attachment is cut to length so that it is flush with the wall surface and is then closed with the cover of the siphon.
  • the siphon of the present invention is also very well suited for low fluid flow applications, e.g. for condensate drainage of air conditioners and refrigerators. Due to the low liquid flow rate, it is expedient to dimension the pipes small. So that the siphon according to the invention can be made compact, it is provided that the inlet port and the outlet port have a diameter such that they can be connected to pipelines with an outer diameter between 6 and 50 mm.
  • the siphon according to the invention is designed as a wall siphon for vertical installation.
  • the curvatures of the channel in the odor trap insert and a possible valve are arranged so that they develop their odor-trap effect in vertical installation.
  • the wall siphon can be installed in residential and office walls, in particular e.g. below air split units.

  • the siphon 10 has a siphon housing 1.
  • an inlet port 1b extends into the siphon housing interior, making a bend of 90 ° and opening into an inlet port 1c.
  • an outlet 1 e extends into the Siphongeotrouseinnere, makes a curvature of 90 ° and opens into an outlet opening 1 f. Due to the bends of the inlet nozzle 1b and the outlet nozzle 1e, the inlet opening 1c and the outlet opening 1f are the open front side 1g (see, in particular, FIG Fig. 7 ) of the siphon housing 1 and have parallel axes a1, a2, as shown Fig. 4 seen.
  • the entire siphon housing 1 is manufactured in one piece, for example by plastic injection molding.
  • the siphon 10 is constructed as a wall siphon for vertical installation in walls. It is particularly suitable for applications with low liquid flow rates, such as condensate drains from air conditioners and refrigerators, which typically have flow rates of less than one liter per minute.
  • the inlet connection 1b and the outlet connection 1e have relatively small diameters and in particular are dimensioned so that they can be connected to pipelines having an outer diameter of between 6 and 50 mm.
  • the siphon housing 1 is compact and has, for example, a square back surface with 11 cm edge length.
  • the height of the side walls is for example 6 cm.
  • the odor trap insert 6 has an insert housing comprising an insert housing body 6a in which a curved channel 6e is formed.
  • the insert housing body 6a is closed by an insert housing cover 6b so that thereby the channel 6e is sealed.
  • the channel curvature in this embodiment is 360 ° and includes two U-shaped sections as shown in FIGS FIGS. 6 and 7 is apparent.
  • a channel entrance opening 6c and a channel exit opening 6d are formed at the end portions of the passage 6e, which are sealingly connectable to the inlet port 1c of the inlet port 1b and the outlet port 1f of the outlet port 1e of the siphon housing 1, respectively.
  • the connection is made in the simplest way by plugging the entire odor trap insert 6 on the inlet port 1b and the outlet 1 e from the front 1g of the siphon 1.
  • To clean the siphon 10 needs only the odor trap insert 6 removed with a handle to be rinsed and replaced for which no expertise is required. For persistent blockage, the entire odor trap insert 6 can be replaced.
  • two diagonally opposite retaining tabs 6h are formed in the insert housing cover 6b.
  • the inlet port 1c of the inlet port 1b and the outlet port 1f of the outlet port 1e the siphon 1 are accessible to introduce cleaning feathers or similar cleaning equipment in the lines and to clean them.
  • the channel 6e of the odor trap insert 6 is designed to be filled in its curved sections with liquid which acts as an odor trap.
  • a valve 7 is further provided in the channel 6 e of the odor trap insert 6.
  • the valve 7 comprises a spherical float 7a and a seat 7b with a circular opening 7c, the seat 7b being insertable into a guide groove 6g of the channel 6e.
  • the float 7a rests on the seat 7b and closes the circular opening 7c and thus also the channel 6e. Liquid flowing through the channel 6e lifts the float 7a away from its seat 7b, thereby releasing the channel 6e.
  • the open front 1g of the siphon housing 1 is closed by a removable cover 3, the snap fasteners 3a has.
  • the building protection attachment 2 can be designed either with open front and rear side, that is to say comprise only cut-away side walls 2 a, which are e.g. have a height of 7 cm, or include side walls 2a and a front wall 2b to optimally protect the interior of the siphon housing 1 from contamination during use.
  • the building protection attachment 2 is dimensioned so that the side walls terminate in a kind of sleeve, which is placed on the siphon housing 1, but otherwise the side walls 2 a of the building protection attachment 2 are aligned with the side walls of the siphon housing 1. After the siphon is inserted with the building protection attachment 2 in a hole of corresponding depth in the wall and e.g. has been fixed therein by plastering, the side walls 2 a of the building protection attachment 2 are cut flush with the wall, wherein after cutting off the protruding parts of the side walls 2 a, the cover 3 can be placed on the building protection attachment 2.
