- a switchable nozzle arrangement of the type mentioned is used. It comprises a liquid supply part with an inlet channel, which opens into a recess of the liquid supply part. In the recess, a piston is slidably mounted with a passage.
- the nozzle assembly also includes a liquid dispensing part having a plurality of flow passages including different outlet openings. The outlet openings may have different cross-sectional profiles and / or different diameters. Pressurized liquid may be supplied to the liquid discharge part via the input port of the liquid supply part and the passageway of the piston.
- the piston is connected to its liquid dispensing partially facing end face to the piston facing the back of the liquid dispensing part can be applied, wherein between the back and the end face a sealing ring is arranged.
- At least one latching projection and a plurality of latching recesses are arranged on the rear side of the fluid delivery part and the front side of the piston.
- the liquid discharge part can be rotated relative to the liquid supply part about an axis of rotation and is latched by means of the at least one latching projection and the latching recesses in a plurality of rotational positions with the piston, wherein the sealing ring can each be applied to one of a plurality of sealing surfaces.
- Such switchable nozzle arrangements are used in particular in high-pressure cleaning devices. For example, they can be connected to a spray gun that is connected to the high-pressure cleaner via a pressure hose.
- a switchable nozzle arrangement is integrated in a multi-jet tube which can be connected via a spray gun and a pressure hose to the pressure outlet of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- a switchable nozzle arrangement of the aforementioned type is known from the document US 3,516,611.
- the latching projection is designed in the form of a protruding from the end face of the piston collar, which forms an extension of the passage channel and is surrounded by the sealing ring.
- the detent recesses of Liquid dispensing part are designed as conical entrance areas of the flow passages.
- the collar-like latching projection dips into a cone-shaped input area.
- Object of the present invention is to develop a switchable nozzle assembly of the type mentioned in such a way that it has a longer life.
- This object is achieved in a switchable nozzle arrangement of the generic type according to the invention that the at least one locking projection has a greater or lesser radial distance from the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing member than the sealing surfaces.
- the switchable nozzle arrangement according to the invention there is no risk that the sealing surfaces to which the sealing ring can be applied, are damaged by the locking projections, because the at least one locking projection has a greater or lesser radial distance from the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing member than the sealing surfaces. This ensures that the at least one locking projection does not reach the sealing surfaces during rotation of the liquid dispensing part and thus can not damage it.
- the switchable nozzle arrangement according to the invention is therefore characterized by a longer service life.
- At least one latching projection has a greater radial distance from the axis of rotation of the liquid discharge part than the sealing surfaces. Based on the axis of rotation of the locking projection is thus positioned in the radial direction outside of the sealing surfaces.
- At least one latching projection has a smaller radial distance from the axis of rotation of the fluid delivery part than the sealing surfaces. Also by such positioning of the locking projection damage to the sealing surfaces by the locking projection during rotation of the liquid dispensing part is reliably prevented.
- the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part is aligned colinearly to the longitudinal axis of the piston.
- the piston is displaceable in the recess of the liquid supply part in the direction of its longitudinal axis back and forth.
- the Longitudinal axis of the piston thus defines its axial displacement direction.
- the longitudinal axis of the piston also defines the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part, which is thus rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the piston. This allows a particularly compact design of the nozzle assembly.
- the at least one latching projection and / or the latching recesses have at least one oblique surface oriented obliquely to the direction of rotation of the fluid delivery part.
- the provision of the inclined surfaces facilitates the release of the locking connection between the piston and the liquid dispensing part.
- both the at least one latching projection and the latching recesses each comprise at least one inclined surface.
- the at least one latching projection extends in the direction of rotation of the liquid dispensing part. This increases the mechanical stability of the locking projection. It can be provided, for example, that extends the at least one locking projection in the direction of rotation of the liquid dispensing part over an angular range of at least 20 °. In particular, an extension of the at least one latching projection in the direction of rotation of the liquid dispensing part over an angular range of 25 ° to 30 ° is preferred.
- the nozzle arrangement according to the invention has only a single latching projection, which dips in different rotational positions of the liquid discharge part in each case in a complementarily configured latching recess.
- the nozzle arrangement comprises a plurality of latching projections which extend along a pitch circle surrounding the sealing surfaces.
- the center of the pitch circle is conveniently given by the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part. It can be provided, for example, that the nozzle arrangement has a plurality of latching projections, which are distributed uniformly along the pitch circle.
- the number of latching projections is identical to the number of latching recesses. In the rotational positions of the liquid dispensing part, in each of which a flow passage is fluid-tightly connected to the passage channel of the piston, thus immersed in each locking recess a latching projection. This increases the mechanical stability and thus the service life of the nozzle arrangement.
- the number of rotational positions in which the liquid discharge part is latched to the piston identical to the number of flow passages of the liquid discharge part. This ensures that pressurized fluid can be dispensed through a flow passage in each detent position of the fluid delivery part.
- the liquid discharge part thus has no intermediate positions, in which only a latching connection with the piston of the liquid supply part is achieved, but no liquid can be dispensed. This facilitates handling of the nozzle assembly.
- the latching projections are arranged on the end face of the piston and the complementary formed locking recesses on the back of the liquid discharge part.
- the latching projections are preferably positioned on the rear side of the liquid dispensing part and the latching depressions on the end face of the piston.
- the liquid discharge part to a distributor element and a nozzle body, which are non-rotatably connected to each other, wherein the piston can be applied with its front side to the rear side of the distributor element facing him and the distributor element has a plurality of distribution channels, to which each one output channel of the nozzle body connects.
- the flow passages of the liquid discharge part thus become each formed by a distribution channel of the distributor element and an output channel of the nozzle body.
- the distributor element and the nozzle body are conveniently connectable pluggable with each other. This facilitates the assembly of the liquid dispensing part.
- At least one distributor channel of the distributor element has an inlet section and an outlet section, which are arranged offset radially relative to one another with respect to the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing section and are connected to one another via a connecting section.
- the input section and / or the output section are aligned parallel to the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part.
- the connecting portion preferably extends radially to the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part.
- the passage of the piston is conveniently aligned obliquely to the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part. It can be provided, for example, that the passage channel has a first channel portion which extends into the region of the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing part and to which a second channel section connects, which opens in an offset from the axis of rotation of the liquid dispensing portion in the end face of the piston ,
- the sealing ring is conveniently arranged in a groove which is formed in the end face of the piston and surrounds the opening in the end face of the piston end portion of the passage channel in the circumferential direction.
- the height of the at least one latching projection is smaller than the material thickness of the sealing ring in a particularly preferred embodiment of the switchable nozzle arrangement according to the invention.
- the Piston displaced during rotation of the liquid dispensing part in the liquid dispensing part facing away from the rear direction, so that the at least one locking projection is released from the associated locking recess. If the height of the locking projection is less than the material thickness of the sealing ring, it is ensured that the piston shifts so far backward during rotation of the liquid discharge part, that although the locking connection between the piston and the liquid discharge part is released, the sealing ring but not can move out of him receiving annular groove. This ensures that the sealing ring during rotation of the liquid dispensing part can not fall out of the annular groove, for this purpose, the height of the locking projection and thus the displacement of the piston should be greater than the material thickness of the sealing ring.
- the piston expands gradually in the direction of the liquid dispensing part.
- the rear side of the piston remote from the liquid discharge part has a smaller area than the end face of the piston facing the liquid discharge part.
- the size of the back of the piston in combination with the pressure of the fluid acting on the piston, determines the force with which the piston is pressed against the back of the fluid delivery member upon application of pressurized fluid. If the end face of the piston has a larger area than its rear side, the pressure exerted by the piston on the liquid discharge part can be reduced.
- the liquid discharge part dips into the recess of the liquid supply part and is surrounded in its dipping into the recess region of a sealing ring which rests against an inner wall of the recess.
- Such a configuration makes it possible to fluidly connect the liquid discharge part to the liquid supply part regardless of the position which the longitudinally displaceable piston assumes within the recess.
- such a configuration ensures that even then a fluid-tight connection between the liquid supply part and the liquid dispensing Part exists when the piston lifts at a rotation of the liquid discharge part relative to the liquid supply part of the back of the liquid discharge member by the locking recesses release the locking projections.
- the switchable nozzle arrangement according to the invention is preferably used in a multi-jet tube.
- the invention is therefore also directed to a multi-jet tube for a high-pressure cleaner with such a nozzle assembly.
- the multi-jet tube conveniently comprises a sleeve which is rotatably mounted about a longitudinal axis of the multi-jet tube to a supply pipe and surrounds the switchable nozzle assembly, wherein the sleeve is rotatably connected to the liquid discharge member.
- the supply pipe can for example be connected to a spray lance and for this purpose comprise a connecting device, as is known per se to those skilled in the art, for example a bayonet connection device.
- the pressurized liquid can be supplied to the switchable nozzle assembly.
- the nozzle assembly is positioned in a sleeve of the multi-jet tube, which is rotatably mounted on the supply pipe and can be rotated about the longitudinal axis of the multi-jet tube. Since the sleeve is non-rotatably connected to the liquid discharge part of the nozzle arrangement, the user can twist the liquid discharge part of the nozzle arrangement by turning the sleeve and thereby select the outlet opening he desires to discharge the liquid.

- the user can transfer the distributor element 63 into a rotational position in which the latching projections 101 to 105 dive into the associated latching recesses 115 to 119 and thereby produce a latching connection between the piston 42 and the distributor element 63, as in FIG this is shown in FIG.
- the pressurized fluid can be discharged via one of the outlet ports 94 to 98 with the user-selected jet shape.
- the inclined surfaces slide 122, 123 of the locking projections 101 to 105 along the associated inclined surfaces 125, 126 and 127 of the locking recesses 115 to 119, wherein the piston 42nd is moved so far in the direction away from the distributor element 63 direction until the locking recesses 115 to 119 fully release the locking projections 101 to 105.
- the height of the latching projections 101 to 105 is selected to be lower than the material thickness of the third sealing ring 61, which is arranged between the piston 42 and the distributor element 63. This ensures that the third sealing ring 61 when rotating the distributor element 63 can not fall out of the annular groove 60 which removes it.
