- a disadvantage of the technical teaching of DE 31 28 525 is that a setting must be made before connecting the water closet basin. After the setting has been made, the water closet basin is connected to the flushing line. A first flush can then be triggered and only then can the installer recognize whether the setting was good or still needs to be optimized. If a further adjustment would be necessary, the flushing line must be dismantled again and the insert can only be changed after this. The installer can only see whether the readjustment was good after he has connected the flushing line and triggers a first flush.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Sanitäreinrichtung mit integrierter Drossel nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The present invention relates to a sanitary device with an integrated throttle according to the preamble of
Die
Nachteilig an der technischen Lehre der
Ähnliche Nachteile ergehen aus der
Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung eine Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Sanitäreinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, welche effizienter einstellbar ist.Based on this prior art, the invention has for its object to provide a sanitary device of the type mentioned, which is more efficiently adjustable.
Diese Aufgabe löst die Sanitärartikelanordnung nach Anspruch 1. Demgemäss umfasst die die Sanitärartikelanordnung einen Sanitärartikel mit einem Auffangbecken, einem in das Auffangbecken mündenden Einlass und einem vom Auffangbecken wegführenden Auslass, und ein mit dem Einlass fluidisch in Verbindung stehendes Leitungsstück mit einer einen Kanal umgebenden Wandung und einem Drosselelement, mit welchem der Querschnitt des Kanals zur Steuerung des Spülwasserzuflusses in den Sanitärartiekl verändert werden kann. Das Leitungsstück ist mit einer Spülwasserquelle verbindbar, welche das dem Auffangbecken zuführende Spülwasser bereitstellt. Das Drosselelement ist derart zum Sanitärartikel angeordnet, dass das Drosselelement im fludisch mit der Spülwasserquelle in Verbindung stehendem Zustand einstellbar ist. Mit anderen Worten: Das Drosselelement ist derart angeordnet, dass es bei montiertem Sanitärartikel und montiertem Leitungsstück einstellbar ist.This object is achieved by the sanitary article arrangement according to
Erfindungsgemäß umfasst das Drosselelement einen Rückhalteabschnitt, welcher während des Einsetzens des Drosselelementes in das Leitungsstück in seiner Geometrie von einem Ursprungszustand in einen Montagezustand veränderbar ist und nach dem vollständigen Einsetzen des Drosselelementes in das Leitungsstück in den Ursprungszustand übergeht, in welchem das Drosselelement nicht mehr vom Leitungsstück demontierbar ist. Unter nicht mehr demontierbar wird in diesem Zusammenhang verstanden, dass das Drosselelement nicht zerstörungsfrei bzw. nicht von Hand demontierbar ist.According to the invention, the throttle element comprises a retaining section, the geometry of which can be changed from an original state to an assembly state during the insertion of the throttle element into the line piece and after the complete insertion of the throttle element into the line piece changes to the original state, in which the throttle element is no longer from the line piece is removable. In this context, “no longer removable” means that the throttle element is not non-destructive or cannot be removed by hand.
Die Anordnung des Drosselelementes, dass es im fluidisch mit der Spülwasserquelle in Verbindung stehendem Zustand einstellbar ist, hat den Vorteil, dass der Installateur das Drosselelement sehr einfach an die lokalen Gegebenheiten, nämlich an den Spülwasserdruck und/oder die Form des Auffangbeckens einstellen kann. Insbesondere kann der Installateur eine Testspülung auslösen und dann den Effekt derselben im Auffangbecken überprüfen. Findet beispielsweise ein Überschwappen des Spülwassers im Auffangbecken statt, so kann der Kanalquerschnitt verkleinert werden. Erreicht das Spülwasser nicht die gewünschten Oberflächen im Auffangbecken, so kann der Kanalquerschnitt vergrössert werden. Der Installateur kann ohne eine Demontage der Sanitärartikelanordnung das Drosselelement einstellen, was die Konfiguration der Sanitärartikelanordnung stark vereinfacht.The arrangement of the throttle element such that it can be adjusted in the state in fluid communication with the flushing water source has the advantage that the installer can very easily adjust the throttle element to the local conditions, namely to the flushing water pressure and / or the shape of the catch basin. In particular, the installer can trigger a test flush and then check the effect of the same in the catch basin. For example, if the rinsing water spills over into the catch basin, the channel cross-section can be reduced. If the rinsing water does not reach the desired surface in the catch basin, the channel cross-section can be increased. The installer can adjust the throttle element without dismantling the sanitary article arrangement, which greatly simplifies the configuration of the sanitary article arrangement.
Der Sanitärartikel ist vorzugsweise eine Toilette oder ein Urinal.The sanitary article is preferably a toilet or a urinal.
Unter der Ausdrucksweise einstellbar wird verstanden, dass das Drosselelement durch einen Installateur eingestellt werden kann. Das heisst, der Installateur nimmt eine Einstellung vor, welche nach erfolgter Einstellung nicht mehr veränderbar ist. Mit anderen Worten gesagt: Das Drosselelement ist im fludisch mit der Spülwasserquelle in Verbindung stehendem Zustand von Hand oder durch ein Werkzeug einstellbar, wobei die Einstellung des Drosselelementes nach erfolgter Einstellung über die gesamte Gebrauchsdauer der Sanitärartikelanordnung erhalten bleibt.The expression adjustable is understood to mean that the throttle element can be set by an installer. This means that the installer makes a setting that cannot be changed after the setting has been made.
