Definitions
- the present invention refers to a water supply system for kitchen or bathroom comprising a support and a jet diffuser which can be extracted from the support, the jet comprising a button for opening and closing the flow situated on a body of the jet diffuser.
- the present invention refers to a supply system of the type mentioned above in which the jet diffuser is connected to a flexible tube for conveying the water and the button can control the opening of the flow from the flexible tube, both when the jet is fixed to its support, and when the jet is extracted from the support and is gripped by the user.
- Kitchen or bathroom water supply systems are known of the type comprising a jet diffuser, which is connected to a flexible tube for conveying water, and a support that is suitable for supporting the jet diffuser.
- the support is a rod that is fixed to the kitchen sink and comprises a C-sectioned attachment in which the jet diffuser can be inserted from the top, allowing the flexible tube to pass downwards.
- Such supply systems comprise a hot and cold water mixer, for example a lever, which also controls the opening and the closure of the flow.
- the water can be supplied with the jet diffuser inserted in the support or gripped and extracted from the support, moving the jet within the limitations allowed by the flexible tube. When the water is closed, the jet diffuser is put back in the support.
- the technical problem at the basis of the present invention is that of simplifying known supply systems, finding an alternative to the supply control which makes it possible to speed up the opening and the closure of the flow and that allows the user to use both hands more freely, solving the drawbacks currently limiting the known systems.
- the idea of solution at the basis of the present invention is that of devising a supply system in which the jet diffuser is opened through a coupling of the jet with a relative support and is closed through a decoupling of the jet and the support.
- the coupling is a shape coupling between the jet and the support; preferably a button for opening the flow, which projects from an opening of the jet diffuser, is mechanically actuated by the jet/support contact, for opening the flow.
- the jet/support contact is electronically detected through a pressure sensor.
- a water supply system for kitchen or bathroom comprising a support and a jet diffuser which can be extracted from the support, in which the jet comprises a button for opening and closing the flow situated on a body of the jet diffuser and the button controls an opening of the flow, when the body is inserted in the support, and a closure of the flow, when the body is extracted from the support.
- the jet when the jet is extracted from the support, the flow is automatically closed, i.e. without intervening on any control lever and, when the jet is put back in the support, the flow is opened automatically, without acting upon the lever.
- the button can be further actuated to open the flow, manually, when the body is extracted from the support.
- the user can supply water by holding the jet and keeping the button actuated so as to open the flow.
- the button is mobile from a position A in which it projects from the body, corresponding to the closure of the flow, to a position B in which it is retracted inside the body, corresponding to the opening of the flow.
- Elastic means are provided for repositioning the button projecting from the body, from the retracted position, as soon as the body is extracted from the support. When the jet is inserted in the support, the support compresses the elastic means, by pressing on the button.
- the retracted position is obtained through shape coupling between the body and the support.
- the support comprises a C-shaped profile and the body comprises a section that can be inserted in the C-shaped profile in a predetermined direction, according to which the button is in contact with the inner surface of the profile and is pushed into the retracted position.
- a shape coupling guides the user to open the flow, since the jet can be inserted in the profile only in a way such as to actuate the button.
- the button comprises a pressure sensor that is suitable for detecting a pressure exerted by the support or by a finger on the button, so as to control the opening or the closure of the flow.
- a pressure sensor that is suitable for detecting a pressure exerted by the support or by a finger on the button, so as to control the opening or the closure of the flow.
- it is sufficient to exert a slight pressure on the sensor, through a contact with the support or with a finger, so as to open the flow. If there is no pressure on the sensor, the flow is automatically closed.
- the supply system further comprises a lever or control for opening/closing the flow, operating so as to intercept a fluid path upstream of the jet diffuser and to close the flow of water even when the body is inserted in the support, and even if the button controls an opening of the flow through the jet, for example because it is inserted in the support.
- a lever or control for opening/closing the flow, operating so as to intercept a fluid path upstream of the jet diffuser and to close the flow of water even when the body is inserted in the support, and even if the button controls an opening of the flow through the jet, for example because it is inserted in the support.
- a switch for changing the supply mode of the fluid for example from a cohesive central jet to a rain jet.
- the switch is situated on the body of the jet diffuser and it is even more preferably a mechanical flip switch.
- the support comprises a substantially tubular portion with a predetermined inner diameter
- the body is substantially cylindrical with an outer diameter that is substantially the same as the inner diameter of the tubular portion and able to slide axially inside the tubular portion.
- the cylindrical body comprises a side opening engaged by the button and from which the button projects, for closing, or retracts, for opening the flow, it is connected to a flexible tube for conveying the water, the flexible tube being slidable inside the tubular portion, and to a cylindrical grip for the jet diffuser, with a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the tubular portion, which is a projection of the tubular portion when the body is inserted in the support.
- Figure 1 schematically represents a water supply system 1 for kitchen or bathroom comprising a support 2 and a jet diffuser 3 which can be extracted from the support and connected to a flexible tube for conveying water.
- the jet comprises a button 4 for opening and closing the flow situated on a body 5 of the jet diffuser, which controls an opening of the flow, when the body is inserted inside the support, and a closure of the flow, when the body is extracted from the support.
- a lever or a general control for opening/closing the flow is operatively associated to or comprised in the supply system so as to close the flow of water from the jet diffuser, intercepting a fluid path upstream of the jet diffuser, even when the body is inserted inside the support and the button controls the opening of the flow.
- the general control lever intercepts the supply of fluid upstream of the flexible tube.
- the water supply system according to the present invention is indicated with reference numeral 1, the support with reference numeral 2 and the jet diffuser with reference numeral 3.
- the jet is partially extracted from the support and in figure 2 it is inserted in it.
- a button 4 for opening and closing the flow on a body 5 of the jet diffuser controls the opening of the flow; in particular, when the body 5 is inserted in the support 2 like in figure 2 , the button 4 controls the closure of the flow and when the body is extracted from the support, the button controls the closure.
- the opening of the flow can be further controlled manually, when the body is extracted from the support, for example by exerting pressure with a finger.
- the button 4 is mobile from a position A in which it projects from the body, corresponding to the closure of the flow ( figure 2 ), to a position B in which it is retracted inside the body, corresponding to the opening of the flow ( figure 1 ).
- Elastic means are associated to the body for moving the button 4 into the projecting position, when the body is extracted from the support or when the finger is lifted from the button.
- the retracted position of the button is obtained through shape coupling between the body and the support.
- the button is in contact with the support and the elastic means are compressed or loaded, when the body is inserted inside the support.
- a pressure sensor that is comprised in or associated to the button detects pressure exerted by the support or by a finger on the button, so as to consequently control the opening or the closure of the flow.
- a lever or control for opening/closing the flow, for intercepting a fluid path upstream of the jet diffuser and for closing the flow of water even when the body is inserted in the support and the button controls an opening of the flow through the jet.
- a presence sensor for detecting the presence of a user near to the jet diffuser, controlling an opening of the flow, when the jet is inserted inside the support.
- the presence sensor detects the moving away of or the absence of a user near to the jet, closing the flow, even if the jet is inserted in the support.
- An electronic control unit of a valve is foreseen for opening and closing the flow, electrically connected to the pressure sensor and, if foreseen, also to the presence sensor. For example, if both sensors are foreseen, the unit receives two different inputs associated to them and having two different levels of voltage - a level L1 is associated to the opening control and another level L2 is associated to the closure control.
- the electronic unit controls the closure of the valve. If the input from the pressure sensor is L1, since the jet is inserted inside the support, and the input from the presence sensor is L1, since a user is detected near the jet, the electronic unit controls the opening of the valve; if, on the other hand, the input from the pressure sensor is L2, since the jet is extracted from the support, and the input from the presence sensor is L2, since a user is detected near to the jet, the electronic unit in any case shuts off the valve and therefore the flow.
- the unit comprises a solenoid valve for opening and closing the flow.
- a switch 6 for changing the supply mode of the fluid for example from a cohesive central jet to a rain jet, is moreover foreseen in the system of the present invention, preferably on the body of the jet diffuser and preferably being a mechanical flip switch.
- the support preferably comprises a substantially tubular portion 2a with a predetermined inner diameter
- the body is substantially cylindrical with an outer diameter that is substantially the same as the inner diameter of the tubular portion (tube) and able to slide axially inside the tubular portion.
- the button is invisible.
- the cylindrical body comprises a side opening 4ap engaged by the button and from which the button projects, for closing the flow, ⁇ i.e. when the body is extracted from the tubular portion, which, in such a configuration, does not compress the elastic means.
- the body When the body is retracted inside the tubular portion, it controls the opening of the flow, and the tubular portion compresses the elastic means for shape coupling with the body.
- the body is connected to a flexible tube 7 for conveying water, also able to slide inside the tubular portion, and to a cylindrical grip 3a of the jet diffuser, preferably having a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the tubular portion, which is an extension of the tubular portion when the body is inserted in the support.
- the flow of water is opened when the jet diffuser is inserted inside the support and is interrupted when the jet is extracted from the support, thus avoiding spraying water during the movement of the jet diffuser.
- lever or presence sensor makes it possible in any case to close the flow, when the jet diffuser is inserted inside the tube.
