Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for flushing a toilet, in particular a toilet of a recreational vehicle, with at least one flushing water pump and at least one Spülwasserventil. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a toilet system with a toilet bowl having an inner surface, at least one Spülwasserpumpe, at least one Spülwasserventil and at least one control unit and a recreational vehicle with such a toilet system.
- a recreational vehicle is understood to mean a mobile home or a caravan, although other mobile vehicles, such as boats, can also be regarded as a recreational vehicle.
- the known toilet water rinses for recreational vehicles are insufficient to remove the feces residue-free and completely. Furthermore, the flushing performance can be further affected by a reduced water supply performance.
- the task is to show a flushing process for a toilet, in which, despite the low amount of flushing water available, a better dishwashing result by optimal wetting of the toilet bowl. Furthermore, the object is to provide a corresponding toilet system, which can find use in a recreational vehicle.
- the object is achieved by the method according to claim 1.
- the device succeeds in solving the problem with a toilet system according to claim 7.
- Expedient developments are described in the subclaims.
- the use of a toilet system according to the invention in a recreational vehicle is described in claim 20.
- the inventive method for flushing a toilet is characterized in that the flushing water pump and the flushing water valve are controlled by a control unit, the flushing water pump or the flushing water valve is driven by a first signal, wherein the first signal is at least partially formed by an interval pulse.
- the two components namely rinse water pump or rinse water valve, so driven by an interval pulse that this component is not operated continuously, but intermittently.
- a larger start pulse is generated during the flushing, so that overall sets a better wetting of the toilet bowl.
- this is also achieved by "breaking off" the water film as a result of the intermittent rinsing, and thus the surface tension of the rinsing water does not prevent more homogeneous wetting.
- the control by the interval pulse causes a short-term and significant increase in the water pressure, whereby the water wave generated during the flushing is transported much deeper and further into the toilet bowl. This in turn means that the faeces are transported much better, without the amount of water required for flushing is increased.
- the frequency and / or the pulse length and / or the pulse intensity of the interval pulse is stored in the control unit, in particular stored or programmed.
- the interval pulse does not necessarily have to be regular.
- the frequency and / or the pulse length and / or the pulse intensity of the interval pulse can be varied.
- the variation of the interval pulse can take place within one and the same purge.
- the interval pulse at the beginning of the flush may be different than at the end of the flush.
- the interval pulse not only varies within one and the same flush, but also from flush to flush.
- an individual pulsating flushing can be stored in the control and adjusted, for example, if the water supply is not a problem. The latter is particularly the case when the recreational vehicle is parked on a campsite with permanent water supply and the possibility of disposal.
- flushing water pump and the flushing water valve are activated by the first signal.
- these two components are operated in parallel, so that sets a particularly stable pulsation rate.
- the flushing water pump or the flushing water valve is controlled with a second signal, wherein the second signal is at least partially formed by a continuous signal.
- the rinse water pump delivers continuously and thus generates a back pressure on the rinse water valve when the rinse water valve is closed. If the rinse water valve is then opened, the ram pressure suddenly empties and a surge-like and therefore stronger water wave of the toilet rinse is generated for a short time. This gushing of the toilet bowl with rinse water causes better wetting of the surface of the toilet bowl on the one hand, and on the other hand stubborn residues are better removed by the higher energy of the water wave. Thus, the already existing short-term increase in water pressure can be further increased thereby, resulting in an even better overall dishwashing result.
- the first signal is further formed by a continuous signal preceding and / or downstream of the interval pulse. It is also expedient if the second signal is further formed by an interval pulse connected upstream and / or downstream from the continuous signal. Thus, for example, first a pulsating flushing can be realized, which is then followed by a continuous flushing.
- the duration, the frequency and the pulse length can be stored separately in the controller, so that the rinsing method can be adapted to individual needs.
- the object is achieved with a toilet system according to the invention, which is characterized in particular by the known Toilet systems that the control unit controls the Spüliganpumpe or Spülwasserventil with at least a first signal, wherein the first signal is at least partially formed by an interval pulse.
- the control unit can be operated via an operating panel, for example via a touchscreen or the like.
- the first signal is further formed by a continuous pulse upstream and / or downstream of the interval pulse.
- control unit activates the flushing water pump separately from the flushing water valve.
- an optimal rinsing result can be achieved.
- the control unit expediently activates the flushing water pump or the flushing water valve with a second signal, the second signal being formed at least partially by a continuous signal.
- a second signal being formed at least partially by a continuous signal.
- the second signal is further formed by an interval pulse upstream and / or downstream of the continuous signal.
- the toilet system has an interface for setting rinsing parameters.
- the control unit can be operated via an operating panel, for example via a touchscreen or the like.
- the interface allows integration into an existing operating system of the recreational vehicle, so that all settings can be made centrally on a unit, for example on the on-board computer of the recreational vehicle.
- the control unit is integrated in the control panel and / or in the on-board computer, so that forms a closed unit.
- the flushing water valve is a solenoid valve, advantageously a water solenoid valve.
- Water solenoid valves have the advantage that they can be switched very quickly and thus also a short and pulsation rate with fast consecutive pulses is made possible.
- the toilet bowl defines a rear area and a front area.
- the toilet bowl has at least one Spüligandüse and at least one rinse water guide track, wherein the Spüligan arrangementsbahn is arranged circumferentially on the inner surface of the toilet bowl.
- the rinse water nozzle at least partially directs the rinse water into the rinse water path so that the rinse water wets the interior surface at the back and front.
- a Spülwasserdüse is provided which does not give the rinse water completely directly into the toilet bowl, but at least a portion of the rinse water in the rinse water guide path initiates, so that the rinse water is distributed along the Spülwasser arrangementsbahn. So both the rear area, as well as the front area of the toilet bowl can be supplied with rinse water.
- the pulsating task of the rinsing water ensures optimal distribution.
- the flushing water path runs in the rear area of the toilet bowl above the flushing water guide track in the front area of the toilet bowl.
- the flushing water guide track is thus, for example, based on the floor or the toilet seat, not in a plane, but runs in the rear of the toilet bowl at a higher level. This allows optimal wetting of the toilet bowl with rinse water.
- the rinse water guide path has a baffle surface in the region of the rinse water nozzle.
- This baffle is advantageously arranged so that they
- Impact surface is designed sloping in the direction of the front region, that has a slope.
- the higher part of the Spülwasser arrangementsbahn can be connected in the rear of the toilet bowl with the lower front part to over the baffle.
- This baffle produces, especially during a rinse hold within the interval pulse an opposite water wave so that areas of the toilet bowl can be supplied with rinse water, which otherwise come only with little or no rinse water in contact and therefore need to be cleaned consuming.
- the area of the rinse water nozzle in particular the area below the rinse water nozzle, may be mentioned here.
- the flushing water nozzle has a first flushing opening and a second flushing opening, wherein the flushing water emerges substantially horizontally through the first flushing opening, and wherein the flushing water emerges substantially vertically through the second flushing opening.
- This additional flush opening helps to create an opposite water wave, so as to provide the areas with rinse water, which are difficult to access. This is advantageous not least from a hygienic point of view. In particular, it is therefore also advantageous if the rinse water exits through the second flushing opening in the direction of the baffle surface.
- the invention relates to a recreational vehicle with a toilet system according to the invention.
- Fig. 1 two time diagrams are shown by way of example, which represent the control of the rinse water pump 102 and the rinse water valve 103.
- the rinse water pump 102 and the rinse water valve 103 are jointly controlled via a first signal in the form of an interval pulse. This is represented by the black dashed line, for which purpose the axis designated by "momentum" is decisive.
- 1 means an operation of the rinse water pump 102 or opening of the rinse water valve 103
- 0 means a shutoff of the rinse water pump 102 or closure of the rinse water valve 103.
- the resulting rinse water flow is shown here black and continuous line.
- the rinse water pressure is shown as a gray and continuous line and refers to the axis labeled "Pressure". As shown, the rinse water pump 102 and the rinse water valve 103 are activated in the same way, so that the result is a total of a pulsating rinse water course. Similarly, the rinse water pressure increases or decreases accordingly.
- the lower panel shows an alternative mode of operation, in which the rinse water pump 102 is driven by a second signal in the form of a continuous signal. This continuous signal is shown as a dotted line.
- the rinse water valve 103 is controlled as in the upper panel with the first signal in the form of an interval pulse (dashed line). This also results in the rinsing water course represented by the black line.
- the rinsing diagram shown in the lower panel differs in that the rinsing water pressure builds up a back pressure by the rinsing water pump 102 operating against the closed rinsing water valve 103, which builds up when the rinsing water valve 103 opens.
- a toilet bowl 2 of a toilet system 100 is shown in plan view and as a section along the line AA.
- the toilet bowl 2 has an upper portion 4, which receives the toilet seat during operation. Furthermore, the toilet bowl has a lower region 5, which has the outlet 14.
- a Spülwasserdüse 8 with a first flushing opening 9 and a second flushing opening 10 is arranged on the inner surface 3 of the toilet bowl.
- the Spülwasserdüse 8 is arranged laterally below the upper portion 4. Underneath the Spüligandüse 8 is a circumferential Spülwasser arrangementsbahn 11, 12, 13.
- This flushing water guide track 11, 12, 13 extends circumferentially along the inner surface 3 of the toilet bowl 2 and extends in a front area 6 and in a rear area 7 of the toilet bowl 2.
- Im Rear portion 7 of the toilet bowl 2 extends the flushing water guide track 11, 12, 13 above the flushing water guide track 11, 12, 13 in the front region 6, here two rising or falling Spülwasser arrangementsbahnabitese 12, 13 are provided.
- the Spülwasserdüse 8 is arranged above a first flushing water guide track section 12, which is formed in the form of a baffle 13.
- the first flushing opening 9 discharges the flushing water essentially horizontally into the toilet shots 2l
- the second flushing opening 10 discharging the flushing water in the direction of the baffle 13 and thus generating an opposing flushing water wave in the area of the baffle 13, which also makes areas with flushing water difficult to access to supply.
- This opposite rinse water wave is particularly pronounced when the rinse water valve 103 is closed, so no rinse water is fed into the Tollettenschdorfl 2.
- Fig. 4 a schematic overview of the individual components of a toilet system 100 according to the invention is shown.
- the control unit 101 is embodied here in the form of control electronics and integrated into a control system 109.
- the control system 109 is connected via an interface 104 and additionally comprises an operating panel 106.
- an on-board computer 105 can be integrated in the control system 109 and also be provided with a central operating system, for example with the vehicle computer of the recreational vehicle.
- the control electronics 101, the control panel 106 and / or the on-board computer 105 is a compact and closed unit in the form of the control system 109.
- the rinse water pump 102 and the rinse water valve 103 are controlled.
- the signals for driving can be changed via the interface 104 and stored in the control electronics 101. For example, it may be determined that the rinsing water pump 102 runs continuously for 10 seconds, the rinsing water valve 103 being initially controlled for 5 seconds with an interval pulse having a frequency of, for example, 1 Hz and then permanently opened for a further 5 seconds.
- the rinse water is then fed via the Spüligandüse 8 in the toilet bowl 2, as above Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 described.
- a rinse water tank 107 it is already filled by the water supply 108 during the rinsing process. Otherwise, the rinse water pump 103 directly feeds the rinse water from the water supply 108.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Spülung einer Toilette, insbesondere einer Toilette eines Freizeitmobils, mit wenigsten einer Spülwasserpumpe und wenigstens einem Spülwasserventil. Ferner betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Toilettensystem mit einer Toilettenschüssel mit einer Innenfläche, wenigsten einer Spülwasserpumpe, wenigstens einem Spülwasserventil und wenigstens einer Steuereinheit sowie ein Freizeitmobil mit einem derartigen Toilettensystem. Unter einem Freizeitmobil wird im Folgenden ein Wohnmobil bzw. ein Caravan verstanden, wobei auch andere mobile Fahrzeuge, wie beispielsweise Boote, als Freizeitmobil angesehen werden können.The present invention relates to a method for flushing a toilet, in particular a toilet of a recreational vehicle, with at least one flushing water pump and at least one Spülwasserventil. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a toilet system with a toilet bowl having an inner surface, at least one Spülwasserpumpe, at least one Spülwasserventil and at least one control unit and a recreational vehicle with such a toilet system. In the following, a recreational vehicle is understood to mean a mobile home or a caravan, although other mobile vehicles, such as boats, can also be regarded as a recreational vehicle.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind verschiedene Toilettenwasserspülungen für Freizeitmobile bekannt. In der Regel haben derartige Freizeitmobile eine zentrale Wasserversorgung, an welche auch die Toilettenspülung angeschlossen ist. Bei einer zentralen Wasserversorgung kann es zu einer geminderten Wasserversorgungsleistung kommen, welche sich dann negativ auf die Toilettenspülung auswirkt. Die Wasserversorgungsleistung kann so beispielsweise durch zu schwach ausgelegte Wasserpumpen, zu kleine Schlauch- und Rohrquerschnitte, zu enge Verlegeradien der Wasserleitungen oder durch ungünstige Abzweigungen negativ beeinträchtigt werden.Various toilet water flushes for recreational vehicles are known from the prior art. As a rule, such recreational mobile have a central water supply to which the toilet flush is connected. In a central water supply can lead to a reduced water supply performance, which then has a negative effect on the toilet flush. The water supply performance can be adversely affected for example by too poorly designed water pumps, too small hose and tube cross-sections, too narrow Verlegeradien the water pipes or unfavorable branches.
Dies wirkt sich insofern aus, als dass Druckabfälle und schlechte Wasserförderraten zu einer unzureichenden Toilettenwasserspülung führen. Hinzukommt, dass bei Freizeitmobilen, insbesondere wenn diese nicht auf einem Campingplatz oder dergleichen abgestellt sind, ohnehin nur eine begrenzte Wassermenge sowie ein begrenzter Wasserdruck zur Verfügung stehe. In der Regel weisen diese Toilettensysteme eine oder mehrere Austrittsdüsen auf, denen für die Toilettenwasserspülung ca. 5 - 10 Liter Spülwasser pro Minute bei einem Druck von ca. 0,2 bis 1 bar zur Verfügung stehen. Die Spülung erfolgt aber aus den vorgenannten Gründen nur für eine Zeit von ca. 5 bis 10 Sekunden, sodass sich erhebliche Fließgeschwindigkeitsnachteile einstellen, die zu einer unzureichenden Benetzung der Toilettenschüssel führen können. Durch die geringe Wassermenge und den geringen Druck kann eine vollständige Benetzung bei einem herkömmlichen Spülvorgang nicht stattfinden, da die Oberflächenspannung das Spülwasser weitgehend zusammenhält.This has an effect in that pressure drops and poor water flow rates lead to inadequate flushing of toilet water. In addition, in recreational vehicles, especially if they are not parked on a campsite or the like, in any case only a limited amount of water and a limited water pressure are available. As a rule, these toilet systems have one or more outlet nozzles to which about 5 to 10 liters of rinsing water per minute at a pressure of about 0.2 to 1 bar are available for flushing toilet water. However, the flushing is done for the aforementioned reasons only for a time of about 5 to 10 seconds, so that set significant flow speed disadvantages that can lead to inadequate wetting of the toilet bowl. Due to the small amount of water and the low pressure complete wetting in a conventional rinsing process can not take place because the surface tension largely holds the rinse water together.
Mithin sind die bekannten Toilettenwasserspülungen für Freizeitmobile nur unzureichend, um die Fäkalien rückstandsfrei und vollständig abzutransportieren. Ferner kann die Spülleistung durch eine geminderte Wasserversorgungsleistung weiter beeinträchtigt werden.Thus, the known toilet water rinses for recreational vehicles are insufficient to remove the feces residue-free and completely. Furthermore, the flushing performance can be further affected by a reduced water supply performance.
Somit stellt sich die Aufgabe, ein Spülverfahren für eine Toilette aufzuzeigen, bei welchem sich trotz der geringen zur Verfügung stehenden Spülwassermenge ein besseres Spülergebnis durch eine optimale Benetzung der Toilettenschüssel einstellt. Ferner stellt sich die Aufgabe, ein entsprechendes Toilettensystem bereitzustellen, welches Verwendung in einem Freizeitmobil finden kann.Thus, the task is to show a flushing process for a toilet, in which, despite the low amount of flushing water available, a better dishwashing result by optimal wetting of the toilet bowl. Furthermore, the object is to provide a corresponding toilet system, which can find use in a recreational vehicle.
Die Aufgabe wird mit dem Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorrichtungsseitig gelingt die Lösung der Aufgabe mit einem Toilettensystem gemäß Anspruch 7. Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben. Die Verwendung eines erfindungsgemäßen Toilettensystems in einem Freizeitmobil ist in Anspruch 20 beschrieben.The object is achieved by the method according to
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zur Spülung einer Toilette zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass die Spülwasserpumpe und das Spülwasserventil über eine Steuereinheit angesteuert werden, wobei die Spülwasserpumpe oder das Spülwasserventil mit einem ersten Signal angesteuert wird, wobei das erste Signal zumindest teilweise durch einen Intervallimpuls gebildet wird. Mit anderen Worten wird also zumindest eine der beiden Komponenten, nämlich Spülwasserpumpe oder Spülwasserventil, so durch einen Intervallimpuls angesteuert, dass diese Komponente nicht kontinuierlich betrieben wird, sondern intermittierend. Hierdurch wird ein größerer Startimpuls bei der Spülung erzeugt, sodass sich insgesamt eine bessere Benetzung der Toilettenschüssel einstellt. Insbesondere wird dies auch dadurch erreicht, dass durch die intermittierende Spülung der Wasserfilm "abreißt" und somit die Oberflächenspannung des Spülwassers eine homogenere Benetzung nicht verhindert. Ergebnis ist daher, dass ein wesentlich größerer Anteil der Oberfläche der Toilettenschüssel benetzt wird. Ferner bewirkt die Ansteuerung durch den Intervallimpuls eine kurzfristige und signifikante Erhöhung im Wasserdruck, wodurch die bei der Spülung erzeugte Wasserwelle wesentlich tiefer und weiter in die Toilettenschüssel transportiert wird. Dies wiederrum führt dazu, dass die Fäkalien wesentlich besser abtransportiert werden, ohne dass die zur Spülung benötigte Wassermenge erhöht wird.The inventive method for flushing a toilet is characterized in that the flushing water pump and the flushing water valve are controlled by a control unit, the flushing water pump or the flushing water valve is driven by a first signal, wherein the first signal is at least partially formed by an interval pulse. In other words, therefore, at least one of the two components, namely rinse water pump or rinse water valve, so driven by an interval pulse that this component is not operated continuously, but intermittently. As a result, a larger start pulse is generated during the flushing, so that overall sets a better wetting of the toilet bowl. In particular, this is also achieved by "breaking off" the water film as a result of the intermittent rinsing, and thus the surface tension of the rinsing water does not prevent more homogeneous wetting. The result is therefore that a much larger proportion of the surface of the toilet bowl is wetted. Furthermore, the control by the interval pulse causes a short-term and significant increase in the water pressure, whereby the water wave generated during the flushing is transported much deeper and further into the toilet bowl. This in turn means that the faeces are transported much better, without the amount of water required for flushing is increased.
Zweckmäßigerweise wird die Frequenz und/ oder die Impulslänge und/ oder die Impulsintensität des Intervallimpulses in der Steuereinheit hinterlegt, insbesondere gespeichert oder programmiert. Der Intervallimpuls muss dabei nicht zwingend regelmäßig sein. So kann beispielsweise die Frequenz und/ oder die Impulslänge und/ oder die Impulsintensität des Intervallimpulses variiert werden. Die Variation des Intervallimpulses kann dabei innerhalb ein und derselben Spülung erfolgen. So kann beispielsweise der Intervallimpuls am Anfang der Spülung anders geartet sein, als am Ende der Spülung. Auch ist es möglich, dass der Intervallimpuls nicht nur innerhalb ein und derselben Spülung variiert, sondern auch von Spülung zu Spülung. Somit kann eine individuelle pulsierende Spülung in der Steuerung hinterlegt und angepasst werden, wenn beispielsweise die Wasserversorgung unproblematisch ist. Letzteres ist insbesondere dann der Fall, wenn das Freizeitmobil auf einem Campingplatz mit permanenter Wasserversorgung und der Möglichkeit zur Entsorgung abgestellt ist.Advantageously, the frequency and / or the pulse length and / or the pulse intensity of the interval pulse is stored in the control unit, in particular stored or programmed. The interval pulse does not necessarily have to be regular. For example, the frequency and / or the pulse length and / or the pulse intensity of the interval pulse can be varied. The variation of the interval pulse can take place within one and the same purge. For example, the interval pulse at the beginning of the flush may be different than at the end of the flush. It is also possible that the interval pulse not only varies within one and the same flush, but also from flush to flush. Thus, an individual pulsating flushing can be stored in the control and adjusted, for example, if the water supply is not a problem. The latter is particularly the case when the recreational vehicle is parked on a campsite with permanent water supply and the possibility of disposal.
Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Spülwasserpumpe und das Spülwasserventil durch das erste Signal angesteuert werden. Somit werden diese beiden Komponenten parallel betrieben, sodass sich eine besonders stabile Pulsationsrate einstellt.It is advantageous if the flushing water pump and the flushing water valve are activated by the first signal. Thus, these two components are operated in parallel, so that sets a particularly stable pulsation rate.
Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Spülwasserpumpe oder das Spülwasserventil mit einem zweiten Signal angesteuert wird, wobei das zweite Signal zumindest teilweise durch ein Dauersignal gebildet wird. Dies ist insbesondere dann von Vorteil, wenn die Spülwasserpumpe mit einem Dauersignal angesteuert wird, und das Spülwasserventil mit einem Intervallimpuls angesteuert wird. Die Spülwasserpumpe fördert kontinuierlich und erzeugt so bei geschlossenem Spülwasserventil einen Staudruck am Spülwasserventil. Wird das Spülwasserventil dann geöffnet, entleert sich der Staudruck schlagartig und eine schwallartige und damit stärkere Wasserwelle der Toilettenspülung wird kurzzeitig erzeugt. Diese schwallartige Beaufschlagung der Toilettenschüssel mit Spülwasser bewirkt zum einen eine bessere Benetzung der Oberfläche der Toilettenschüssel, und zum anderen werden durch die höhere Energie der Wasserwelle auch hartnäckige Rückstände besser entfernt. Somit kann hierdurch der ohnehin vorhandene kurzfristige Anstieg im Wasserdruck nochmals gesteigert werden, wodurch sich insgesamt ein noch besseres Spülergebnis einstellt.It is advantageous if the flushing water pump or the flushing water valve is controlled with a second signal, wherein the second signal is at least partially formed by a continuous signal. This is particularly advantageous when the rinse water pump with a continuous signal is controlled, and the rinse water valve is driven with an interval pulse. The rinse water pump delivers continuously and thus generates a back pressure on the rinse water valve when the rinse water valve is closed. If the rinse water valve is then opened, the ram pressure suddenly empties and a surge-like and therefore stronger water wave of the toilet rinse is generated for a short time. This gushing of the toilet bowl with rinse water causes better wetting of the surface of the toilet bowl on the one hand, and on the other hand stubborn residues are better removed by the higher energy of the water wave. Thus, the already existing short-term increase in water pressure can be further increased thereby, resulting in an even better overall dishwashing result.
Weiterbildend wird das erste Signal weiter durch ein dem Intervallimpuls vorgeschaltetes und/ oder nachgeschaltetes Dauersignal gebildet wird. Es ist auch zweckmäßig, wenn das zweite Signal weiter durch ein dem Dauersignal vorgeschalteten und/ oder nachgeschalteten Intervallimpuls gebildet wird. So kann beispielsweise zunächst eine pulsierende Spülung realisiert werden, die dann von einer Dauerspülung gefolgt wird. In diesem Zusammenhang ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die Dauer, die Frequenz sowie die Impulslänge getrennt in der Steuerung hinterlegbar sind, sodass das Spülverfahren an individuelle Bedürfnisse anpassbar ist.In a further development, the first signal is further formed by a continuous signal preceding and / or downstream of the interval pulse. It is also expedient if the second signal is further formed by an interval pulse connected upstream and / or downstream from the continuous signal. Thus, for example, first a pulsating flushing can be realized, which is then followed by a continuous flushing. In this context, it is expedient if the duration, the frequency and the pulse length can be stored separately in the controller, so that the rinsing method can be adapted to individual needs.
Vorrichtungsseitig gelingt die Lösung der Aufgabe mit einem erfindungsgemäßen Toilettensystem, welches sich gegenüber den bekannten Toilettensystemen insbesondere dadurch auszeichnet, dass die Steuereinheit die Spülwasserpumpe oder das Spülwasserventil mit wenigstens einem ersten Signal ansteuert, wobei das erste Signal zumindest teilweise durch einen Intervallimpuls gebildet ist. Somit ergeben sich die bereits verfahrensseitig beschriebenen Vorteile. Denkbar ist in diesem Zusammenhang auch, dass die Steuereinheit über ein Bedienpanel bedienbar ist, beispielsweise über ein Touchscreen oder dergleichen.On the device side, the object is achieved with a toilet system according to the invention, which is characterized in particular by the known Toilet systems that the control unit controls the Spülwasserpumpe or Spülwasserventil with at least a first signal, wherein the first signal is at least partially formed by an interval pulse. This results in the advantages already described in the method. It is also conceivable in this connection that the control unit can be operated via an operating panel, for example via a touchscreen or the like.
Weiterbildend ist das erste Signal weiter durch ein dem Intervallimpuls vorgeschaltetes und/ oder nachgeschaltes Dauersignal gebildet. Somit können optimale Spülergebnisse erzielt werden.Further, the first signal is further formed by a continuous pulse upstream and / or downstream of the interval pulse. Thus, optimal rinsing results can be achieved.
Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Steuereinheit die Spülwasserpumpe getrennt vom Spülwasserventil ansteuert. Somit kann ein optimales Spülergebnis erreicht werden.It is advantageous if the control unit activates the flushing water pump separately from the flushing water valve. Thus, an optimal rinsing result can be achieved.
Zweckmäßigerweise steuert die Steuereinheit die Spülwasserpumpe oder das Spülwasserventil mit einem zweiten Signal an, wobei das zweite Signal zumindest teilweise durch ein Dauersignal gebildet ist. Dies ist wie oben beschrieben insbesondere dann von Vorteil, wenn die Spülwasserpumpe mit einem Dauersignal angesteuert wird und auch gegen das geschlossene Spülwasserventil fördert, um so einen Staudruck - also eine kurzfristige aber signifikante Erhöhung im Wasserdruck - zu erzeugen. Dieser Staudruck wird dann bei Öffnung des Spülwasserventils schlagartig abgebaut, sodass die resultierende Spülwasserwelle die Oberfläche der Toilettenschüssel besser benetzt und die resultierende Wasserwelle durch den erhöhten Wasserdruck tiefer in Toilettenschüssel eingetragen wird, sodass auch jegliche Rückstände in der Toilettenschüssel besser entfernt werden können.The control unit expediently activates the flushing water pump or the flushing water valve with a second signal, the second signal being formed at least partially by a continuous signal. This is as described above particularly advantageous if the flushing water pump is driven with a continuous signal and also promotes against the closed rinse water valve, so as to create a back pressure - ie a short-term but significant increase in water pressure. This dynamic pressure is then reduced abruptly when opening the rinse water valve, so that the resulting Spülwasserwelle wets the surface of the toilet bowl better and the resulting water wave is entered by the increased water pressure deeper in the toilet bowl, so that any residues in the toilet bowl can be better removed.
Es ist von Vorteil, wenn das zweite Signal weiter durch ein dem Dauersignal vorgeschalteten und/ oder nachgeschalten Intervallimpuls gebildet ist. Somit kann ein optimales und den individuellen Bedürfnissen angepasstes Spülergebnis erzielt werden.It is advantageous if the second signal is further formed by an interval pulse upstream and / or downstream of the continuous signal. Thus, an optimal and tailored to the individual needs Rinse result can be achieved.
Weiterbildend weist das Toilettensystem eine Schnittstelle zum Einstellen von Spülparametern auf. Denkbar ist in diesem Zusammenhang auch, dass die Steuereinheit über ein Bedienpanel bedienbar ist, beispielsweise über ein Touchscreen oder dergleichen. Ferner ist es auch denkbar, dass die Schnittstelle eine Einbindung in ein bereits bestehendes Bediensystem des Freizeitmobils erlaubt, sodass sämtliche Einstellungen zentral an einer Einheit vorgenommen werden können, beispielsweise am Bordcomputer des Freizeitmobils. Insbesondere ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die Steuereinheit in das Bedienpanel und/ oder in den Bordcomputer integriert ist, sodass sich eine geschlossene Einheit bildet.Further, the toilet system has an interface for setting rinsing parameters. It is also conceivable in this connection that the control unit can be operated via an operating panel, for example via a touchscreen or the like. Furthermore, it is also conceivable that the interface allows integration into an existing operating system of the recreational vehicle, so that all settings can be made centrally on a unit, for example on the on-board computer of the recreational vehicle. In particular, it is expedient if the control unit is integrated in the control panel and / or in the on-board computer, so that forms a closed unit.
Insbesondere ist es vorteilhaft, wenn das das Spülwasserventil ein Magnetventil, vorteilhafterweise eine Wassermagnetventil ist. Wassermagnetventile haben den Vorteil, dass diese sehr schnell schaltbar sind und somit auch eine kurze und Pulsationsrate mit schnell aufeinander folgenden Pulsen ermöglicht wird.In particular, it is advantageous if the flushing water valve is a solenoid valve, advantageously a water solenoid valve. Water solenoid valves have the advantage that they can be switched very quickly and thus also a short and pulsation rate with fast consecutive pulses is made possible.
Vorteilhafterweise definiert die Toilettenschüssel einen hinteren Bereich und einen vorderen Bereich. Die Toilettenschüssel weist wenigstens einer Spülwasserdüse und wenigstens eine Spülwasserführungsbahn auf, wobei die Spülwasserführungsbahn umlaufend an der Innenfläche der Toilettenschüssel angeordnet ist. Beim Spülen leitet die Spülwasserdüse das Spülwasser zumindest teilweise in die Spülwasserführungsbahn, sodass das Spülwasser die Innenfläche im hinteren Bereich und im vorderen Bereich benetzt. Mit anderen Worten ist also eine Spülwasserdüse vorgesehen, die das Spülwasser nicht vollständig direkt in die Toilettenschüssel abgibt, sondern zumindest einen Teil des Spülwassers in die Spülwasserführungsbahn einleitet, sodass das Spülwasser entlang der Spülwasserführungsbahn verteilt wird. So können sowohl der hintere Bereich, als auch der vordere Bereich der Toilettenschüssel mit Spülwasser versorgt werden. Durch die pulsierende Aufgabe des Spülwassers ist eine optimale Verteilung gewährleistet.Advantageously, the toilet bowl defines a rear area and a front area. The toilet bowl has at least one Spülwasserdüse and at least one rinse water guide track, wherein the Spülwasserführungsbahn is arranged circumferentially on the inner surface of the toilet bowl. During rinsing, the rinse water nozzle at least partially directs the rinse water into the rinse water path so that the rinse water wets the interior surface at the back and front. In other words, therefore, a Spülwasserdüse is provided which does not give the rinse water completely directly into the toilet bowl, but at least a portion of the rinse water in the rinse water guide path initiates, so that the rinse water is distributed along the Spülwasserführungsbahn. So both the rear area, as well as the front area of the toilet bowl can be supplied with rinse water. The pulsating task of the rinsing water ensures optimal distribution.
Vorteilhafterweise verläuft die Spülwasserbahn im hinteren Bereich der Toilettenschüssel oberhalb der Spülwasserführungsbahn im vorderen Bereich der Toilettenschüssel. Die Spülwasserführungsbahn liegt also, beispielsweise bezogen auf den Fußboden oder den Toilettensitz, nicht in einer Ebene, sondern verläuft im hinteren Bereich der Toilettenschüssel auf einer höheren Ebene. Dies ermöglicht eine optimale Benetzung der Toilettenschüssel mit Spülwasser.Advantageously, the flushing water path runs in the rear area of the toilet bowl above the flushing water guide track in the front area of the toilet bowl. The flushing water guide track is thus, for example, based on the floor or the toilet seat, not in a plane, but runs in the rear of the toilet bowl at a higher level. This allows optimal wetting of the toilet bowl with rinse water.
Es ist insbesondere von Vorteil, wenn die Spülwasserführungsbahn im Bereich der Spülwasserdüse eine Prallfläche aufweist. Diese Prallfläche ist vorteilhafterweise so angeordnet, dass diese dieIt is particularly advantageous if the rinse water guide path has a baffle surface in the region of the rinse water nozzle. This baffle is advantageously arranged so that they
Prallfläche in Richtung des vorderen Bereichs abfallend ausgeführt ist, also eine Steigung aufweist. Beispielsweise kann der höher liegende Teil der Spülwasserführungsbahn im hinteren Bereich der Toilettenschüssel mit dem tiefer liegenden vorderen Teil zu über die Prallfläche verbunden werden. Diese Prallfläche erzeugt vor allem während eines Spülstopps im Rahmen des Intervallimpulses eine gegenläufige Wasserwelle sodass auch Bereiche der Toilettenschüssel mit Spülwasser versorgt werden können, die ansonsten nur mit wenig oder gar keinen Spülwasser in Berührung kommen und daher aufwändig gereinigt werden müssen. Als Beispiel sei hier der Bereich der Spülwasserdüse, insbesondere der Bereich unterhalb der Spülwasserdüse genannt.Impact surface is designed sloping in the direction of the front region, that has a slope. For example, the higher part of the Spülwasserführungsbahn can be connected in the rear of the toilet bowl with the lower front part to over the baffle. This baffle produces, especially during a rinse hold within the interval pulse an opposite water wave so that areas of the toilet bowl can be supplied with rinse water, which otherwise come only with little or no rinse water in contact and therefore need to be cleaned consuming. By way of example, the area of the rinse water nozzle, in particular the area below the rinse water nozzle, may be mentioned here.
Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Spülwasserdüse eine erste Spülöffnung und eine zweite Spülöffnung aufweist, wobei die das Spülwasser durch die erste Spülöffnung im Wesentlichen horizontal austritt, und wobei das Spülwasser durch die zweite Spülöffnung im Wesentlichen vertikal austritt. Diese zusätzliche Spülöffnung unterstützt die Erzeugung einer gegenläufigen Wasserwelle, um so auch die Bereiche mit Spülwasser zu versorgen, die schwer zugänglich sind. Dies ist nicht zuletzt aus hygienischen Gesichtspunkten vorteilhaft. Insbesondere ist es daher auch von Vorteil, wenn das Spülwasser durch die zweite Spülöffnung in Richtung der Prallfläche austritt.It is advantageous if the flushing water nozzle has a first flushing opening and a second flushing opening, wherein the flushing water emerges substantially horizontally through the first flushing opening, and wherein the flushing water emerges substantially vertically through the second flushing opening. This additional flush opening helps to create an opposite water wave, so as to provide the areas with rinse water, which are difficult to access. This is advantageous not least from a hygienic point of view. In particular, it is therefore also advantageous if the rinse water exits through the second flushing opening in the direction of the baffle surface.
Ferner betrifft die Erfindung ein Freizeitmobil mit einem erfindungsgemäßen Toilettensystem.Furthermore, the invention relates to a recreational vehicle with a toilet system according to the invention.

Der resultierende Spülwasserverlauf ist hier schwarze und durchgängige Linie dargestellt. Der Spülwasserdruck ist als graue und durchgängige Linie dargestellt und bezieht sich auf die mit "Druck" bezeichnete Achse. Wie dargestellt werden die Spülwasserpumpe 102 und das Spülwasserventil 103 gleichgeschaltet angesteuert, sodass sich insgesamt ein pulsierender Spülwasserverlauf ergibt. Analog hierzu steigt bzw. fällt der Spülwasserdruck entsprechend an bzw. ab.The resulting rinse water flow is shown here black and continuous line. The rinse water pressure is shown as a gray and continuous line and refers to the axis labeled "Pressure". As shown, the rinse
Das untere Panel zeigt eine alternative Betriebsweise, bei welcher die Spülwasserpumpe 102 mit einem zweiten Signal in Form eines Dauersignals angesteuert wird. Dieses Dauersignal ist als gepunktete Linie dargestellt. Das Spülwasserventil 103 wird wie im oberen Panel mit dem ersten Signal in Form eines Intervallimpulses (gestrichelte Linie) angesteuert. Hieraus ergibt sich ebenfalls der mit der schwarzen Linie dargestellte Spülwasserverlauf. Jedoch unterscheidet sich das im unteren Panel dargestellte Spüldiagramm dadurch, dass der Spülwasserdruck durch die gegen das geschlossene Spülwasserventil 103 arbeitende Spülwasserpumpe 102 einen Staudruck aufbaut, der sich bei Öffnung des Spülwasserventils 103 schwallartig abbaut. Dies hat den Effekt, dass eine stärke Spülwasserwelle für einen kurzen Moment erzeugt wird, und somit insgesamt das Spülergebnis nochmals verbessert wird. Dies deshalb, da durch den Abbau des Staudrucks die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit des Spülwassers erhöht wird und die erzeugte Wasserwelle eine höhere Kraft hat, um den Schmutz und die Rückstände in der Toilettenschüssel 2 besser zu entfernen. Ferner ist der Verlauf bzw. der Weg des Spülwassers in der Toilettenschüssel 2 größer und weiter, sodass auch solcher Bereiche der Toilettenschüssel 2 gespülte werden, die mit einer normalen Spülung kaum oder gar nicht gespült werden.The lower panel shows an alternative mode of operation, in which the rinse
