Definitions
- the present invention relates to a so-called shower toilet, so a toilet (water closet) with a shower device that can clean the abdomen of the toilet user in a shower operation.
- shower toilets have been known for some time.
- a shower attachment on a toilet body, often called ceramic, and contains in a housing the shower device.
- the shower attachment is removable from the toilet body for maintenance or repair, for example.
- the shower heads are retrofit devices, which can also be placed on originally not designed specifically for the shower function toilet body.
- the shower device in the shower attachment requires a water connection and has a water-bearing connection line.
- an electrical connection line is additionally provided in order to be able to operate, for example, a water heater, a pump, a motor for a shower arm or similar devices.
- the electrical and the water-carrying connection line are regularly led out laterally from the housing of the shower attachment in attachment devices and, usually slightly deeper, connected to a wall behind the shower toilet. (Here "back” means the fact that a user looking at the shower toilet and the bowl facing him usually sees the shower toilet in front of a room wall, which is accordingly from his perspective behind the shower toilet. means in the same perspective right or left of the shower toilet.)
- the DE 10 2011 118 350 B4 again proposes an invisible installation of the connecting lines, for which they emerge from an underside of the shower attachment or housing and protrude through respective openings in a corresponding upper side surface of the toilet body in this, to be connected there to more pieces of pipe.
- the connecting lines for which they emerge from an underside of the shower attachment or housing and protrude through respective openings in a corresponding upper side surface of the toilet body in this, to be connected there to more pieces of pipe.
- the connecting lines for which they emerge from an underside of the shower attachment or housing and protrude through respective openings in a corresponding upper side surface of the toilet body in this, to be connected there to more pieces of pipe.
- the connecting lines for which they emerge from an underside of the shower attachment or housing and protrude through respective openings in a corresponding upper side surface of the toilet body in this, to be connected there to more pieces of pipe.
- the shower cap housing connection devices which then protrude into the mentioned respective opening.
- the present invention has the object to provide a respect to the laying of the connecting lines of a shower attachment improved shower toilet.
- a shower toilet with a toilet body with a toilet bowl and a top surface next to a top opening of the toilet bowl and a shower attachment for mounting on the top surface of the toilet body, which shower attachment a housing and it contains a shower device and at least one electrical and a water-carrying connection line for the shower device, which are to be connected outside the housing with a supply, characterized in that the upper side surface of the toilet body next to (in the sense of in addition to) at least one Device for mechanical attachment of the shower attachment has exactly one passage opening for the common passage of the electrical and the water-carrying connection line.
- the basic idea of the invention is to reduce the number of passage openings from the last-mentioned prior art, namely to exactly one such passage opening for the connection lines.
- the inventor sees the hidden line laying according to DE 10 2011 118 350 B4 Although quite useful; however, the two openings provided there alone mean for the leads and other openings for the screw mounting the mounting plate adverse weakening of the toilet body, not only, but especially in ceramic versions.
- each additional opening in the production of the toilet body but also during its cleaning, another "critical point" is.
- a ceramic glaze on clean burr-free edges on the edge of the opening in the ceramic (or in other materials) etc. are respected. Even when cleaning a toilet basically as little as possible interrupted and smooth surfaces are desired.
- the inventor has recognized that with the reduction to only a single passage opening on the top surface of the toilet body not necessarily excessive impairment due to complications between electrical engineering and water technology must be connected. This concerns in particular a sufficiently sheathed or encapsulated guidance of the electrical connection line within the housing of the shower attachment from one side to the other, but also, as explained in more detail below, such a "transverse guide" outside, but on the housing.
- the two connecting lines of the shower attachment can be advantageously connected in the toilet body to further connecting line pieces, which in turn are continued on the back of the toilet body on or in a wall behind it.
- the connecting cables can be achieved.
- the basic idea of the invention relates to a reduction of the openings in the upper surface of the WC body.
- the connecting lines in addition to the one described here for opening the connecting lines as few additional openings should be present.
- two (generally smaller) openings for attachment of the shower attachment are provided, for example, for tightening a mounting plate, see. the cited German patent and the following embodiment.
- the number of openings in the top of the toilet body is limited to three in this sense.
- the installation of the shower attachment to the toilet body is usually done by screwing or otherwise securing a mounting plate of the attachment on the toilet body and attach the rest of the shower attachment.
- a mounting plate of the attachment on the toilet body is not necessarily a direct installation of the shower attachment to the toilet body required.
- constructions are also conceivable in which a device carrying the toilet seat ring and / or toilet lid and rather flat is "interposed" so that the attachment of the shower attachment to the toilet body is an indirect one.
- the present invention only opening for the passage of the connecting lines is preferably under an outlet of the water-carrying line from the Housing of the shower attachment.
- no mathematical accuracy is necessary and, for example, a tolerance (based on the line center and center of the opening) of about ⁇ 5 mm in the horizontal direction realistic.
- the water-bearing pipe can be guided directly more or less vertically down.
- the water-bearing pipe is in fact regularly more rigid than the electrical, in particular in a so-called armored hose.
- the electrical connection line is comparatively more flexible. Since the devices supplied by it, as already mentioned above, are generally spatially separated from the water-related devices housed in the housing of the shower attachment, so preferably the electrical connection line is moved to the vicinity of the opening in the toilet body. Advantageously, this happens outside the housing of the shower attachment, and that particularly advantageously in a fastening device of the housing. Particularly suitable are outwardly open channels, ie elongated recesses in which the electrical connection line can be clamped and accommodated at the same time.
- the electrical connection line can then be guided along the housing from its line outlet to the opening or a position on the housing in direct proximity thereto.
- the bottom and the back of the housing of the shower attachment come into consideration.
- the bottom is of course the top surface of the toilet body side facing and the back to the wall or, if there are exceptionally no such, the side facing away from the toilet bowl side.
- the fastening device or the channel is arranged in a transition between both sides of the housing, to which reference may be made to the embodiment.
- a further embodiment of this inventive concept provides that the fastening device, such as the channel, extends over the width of the housing, that is from one side (approximately right) to the opposite side (approximately on the left) running.
- the fastening device such as the channel
- the fastening device extends over the width of the housing, that is from one side (approximately right) to the opposite side (approximately on the left) running.
- Another embodiment relates again to the water-bearing connection line.
- Their cable outlet can take place instead of a flat bottom of the housing of the shower attachment more or less vertically down into an outer recess (in this bottom or at the edge thereof), ie also horizontally. It is additionally between this recess and a rear or lateral outside of the housing, preferably a lateral one provided to the outside open channel piece on the housing, through which the water-bearing connection line can be performed. Then, the water-bearing connection line can optionally be guided in the recess down through the mentioned one opening in the toilet body or laterally through the channel piece to the outside, so that there are comparable advantages, as discussed above with respect to the electrical connection line.
- a channel piece between the recess and the corresponding (or even another) outside of the housing may be provided for the electrical connection line, which in individual cases may also be the same channel piece, ie a channel piece for both lines.
- This also applies, for example, in combination with a guide of the electrical connection line to the recess within the housing.
- a guide of this connection line outside the housing in a fastening device is preferred.
- the line outlet for the electrical connection line is, also independently of the just discussed, preferably provided immediately adjacent to a terminal cover outside the shower cap housing, wherein the line is clamped under or behind this terminal cover to an electrical terminal.
- Preferred is an arrangement of the terminal cover on the back and a line outlet down.
- a implementation of the two connecting lines is provided by a common opening in the upper side surface of the toilet body, should still maintain the basically already known separation between a rather water-related technology part on the one hand and a more electrical engineering part on the other hand in the shower attachment become. Accordingly, should be arranged on one side of a water heater, for example, a water heater or boiler, and on the other hand, an electronic control and a transformer for the low-voltage supply, the division into a shower arm by a shower device defined center is related. As a rule, a movable shower arm is provided, which dictates a certain subdivision in the housing in its retracted position due to its length.
- the term of the page here refers again to left and right in relation to the above-mentioned perspective of the user in front of the toilet.
- Typical and optional additional engineering parts on the side of the water heater may be an input side valve, a pressure reducer, and a pump, and typical components of the other engineering part, for example, fans for odor extraction, a blow dryer, and the like.
- the water-bearing connection line has its end, ie its shower attachment side connection, on the corresponding side, ie at the fresh water connection upstream of the water heater, and the electrical connection line accordingly on the other side.
- the passage of the passage point through the toilet body upper side for at least one of the two connection lines can then take place inside and preferably outside the housing.
- connection lines or connected to this continuing lines to or through the wall at the back of the toilet body is preferably combined with a relatively close relative to the prior art positioning of the two lines, namely at an interval of 30 mm and 300 mm between the two lines. It is true that further internal connection positions are increasingly preferred, at least up to a certain upper limit. Accordingly, instead of the mentioned 300 mm, the following central widths are increasingly preferred as upper limits (in mm in each case): 275, 250, 225, 200, 175, 150, 125, 120, 115, 110. More preferred lower limits are in the following order: 40 mm , 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm.
- This central arrangement facilitates the accessibility of the connection devices for a fitter or maintenance technician, in particular from below, and permits or uses a corresponding configuration of the rear side of the WC.
- WCs have an area which is kept clear of the rear side around central rinsing water supply lines and sewers of the toilet bowl. in other words, the contact surfaces of the toilet body are on the mounting wall outside of this free area.
- a corresponding arrangement of the mentioned connection devices thus allows a design of the WC, in which one can reach the connection devices from below, without having to disassemble the toilet body. This applies depending on the application for an achievement by hand or at least with a tool.
- connection devices are also located with respect to the horizontal extent just outside the range of the flushing water supply line for the toilet bowl and with respect to the vertical extent approximately at the level of the lower edge and also at the height of the load of the toilet body supporting connection devices.
- these are only preferred and by no means compulsory positions.
- the center of the at least one shower line connection device is located outside the actual middle, specifically the middle 30 mm.
- the opening according to the invention in the toilet body preferably has, in its narrowest direction, an extension of at least 20 mm and particularly preferably of at least 25 mm or even 30 mm.
- the opening is preferably at most 60 mm, and more preferably at most 55 mm or even only 50 mm in size.
- these dimensions apply to the diameter, in which case the range between 40 mm and 45 mm diameter is particularly preferred.
- a typical electrical appliance plug for the electrical connection line can have a diameter (along the line direction) of the order of z. B. 30 mm.
- a typical armored hose of a water-bearing connection cable can, for. B. about 10 mm in diameter. So if the appliance plug is to be inserted next to the already carried tank hose through the opening in the toilet body through, are on the order of about 30 mm in one direction and about 40 mm in the direction perpendicular thereto (both horizontally) as opening dimensions necessary, ie For example, a rectangle with these edge dimensions or an ellipse with a corresponding short and long extension or a circular shape with a diameter of 40 mm.
- the opening should not be too large, so in this case preferably dimensions up to about 45 mm x 55 mm come into consideration.
- the opening dimension range of (with respect to the smallest extent) at least 30 mm and up to 60 mm on the upper side surface of the toilet body exactly one opening is present (which does not preclude additional smaller openings, for example for assembly, as previously explained).
- the two connecting lines hang down from the shower attachment from its mounting down to then be able to be passed through an opening. You should have a distance of no more than about 30 mm (relative to the center of the line) and preferably not more than 25 mm.
- FIG. 1 the shower cap 1 according to the invention is seen in perspective from obliquely below, the upper right part of the representation of the back, the lower right part of the illustration to bottom left the underside and the left part of the representation of the right side of the shower attachment and the housing 2 thereto shows.
- FIG. 1 On the right side, so left in FIG. 1 , Two pivot pins are shown, which are provided for a toilet seat ring and a toilet lid and can be part of a damper.
- the other two prominent features of this side of the housing 2 have to do with the leadership and rotation limitation of these rotatable parts are not of further interest here.
- the odor extraction device is in FIG. 1 to recognize in the lower left portion of the bottom and provided with the reference numeral 3b.
- the odor removal device is arranged between these two elements 2 and 3, ie on the in FIG. 1 left and from the perspective of the user right side of the interior of the shower attachment.
- FIG. 1 an electrical connection terminal 4 in a rear recess of the housing 2. It can be seen that this recess can also be closed by a cover, which is omitted here only the visibility of the terminal 4 half.
- a generally designated 5 outside channel begins in the housing 2, which extends to the left and right of the recess of the terminal 4 and along the housing 2, on the underside of the housing 2, but at the the back next part, so to speak, in the transition to the back.
- This channel 5 is connected to the recess of the terminal 4 over a short distance, so that the cable, so the electrical connection line, clamped to the terminal 4, passed through the short piece and then laid in the channel 5 either to one side or the other and can be clamped.
- FIG. 1 indicates that small vertically extending rib projections are provided in the channel 5 for clamping, each in a combination of three; Of course, other clamping devices are conceivable.
- FIG. 1 shows approximately two thirds of the total length of the channel 5 a branch 6 from the back of the housing 2 away obliquely forward to an only vaguely and partially illustrated in Figure 1 opening 7 in the bottom of the housing 2.
- This opening 7 serves to exit the in
- the electrical connection cable can also be moved to this point.
- it can thus be performed either directly under the terminal 4 to the rear, to the left or right to the left or the right outside of the housing 2 or finally through a part of the channel 5 and through the branch 6 to the opening. 7 , so be led to the water pipe.
- FIG. 2 clarifies the channel geometry and FIG. 3 shows the two lines together, which will be discussed in more detail.
- FIG. 1 In the Figures 1 and 2 can be seen next to the just mentioned opening 7 a passage 8 with (in FIG. 1 missing) cover for a lime particle filter, which is connected between a water heater, in particular water heater, and the actual abdominal shower line technology.
- the lid and the passage 8 are used to remove the particulate filter so that they are rinsed can. It can be seen from the position that the corresponding particle filter and, incidentally, also the water heater in the housing 2 are arranged from the perspective of the user in the left half and not in the right with the odor extraction device.
- a shower arm 9 which is located at the bottom of the front of the housing 2, in the middle.
- This recess 10 serves to receive a in the Figures 3 and 4 shown mounting plate 11 for attachment of the shower attachment 1 on a likewise in the Figures 3 and 4
- the mounting plate 11 is in a slightly thickened area right and left in per se known two screws on corresponding openings of the toilet body 12th tightened, with FIG. 4 the horizontal two-dimensional adjustment of this screw fastening indicates.
- the screw fastening forces in the outer parts of the mounting plate 11 a greater height, which explains the slightly deeper design of the recess 10 in these areas.
- the mounting plate is otherwise adapted to the recess 10 (or vice versa) and carries on its lateral outer edges (left and right) fasteners on form-locking elements, which are not shown here in detail and are not the subject of this application.
- FIG. 4 can recognize the already mentioned upper-side passage opening of the toilet body 12, which has a diameter of 40 mm and numbered 13 is and in the horizontal position matches that in Figures 10 and 2 illustrated opening at the bottom of the housing 2 within the recess 10th
- FIG. 4 shows from this opening 7 hanging down a water-bearing connection line 14 of the shower device in the shower attachment 1, namely an armored hose known per se
- FIG. 3 shows in addition and to the left, already mentioned electrical connection line, here designated 15, namely a cable. Both lines hang more or less vertically down from the shower attachment, wherein the electrical connection line 15 is brought in the manner already described by the terminal 4 through the channel 5 and the branch 6 and the water-bearing line 14 through the opening 7.
- FIG. 3 shows that these two lines at the edge of the mounting plate 11 through the respective single opening 13 of the toilet body 12 pass through and into this.
- a flushing water line connection 17 can be seen in the middle, including the largest connection, namely the sewer connection 18.
- connection lines 14 and 15 can of course also be led through (possibly somewhat enlarged) connection openings 20 and connected to or in the wall.
- the shower attachment 1 can be approximated with the two hanging connecting lines 14 and 15 from above to the toilet body. Then, the lines 14 and 15 can be sequentially threaded through the opening 13, so that the slightly thickened connection elements do not interfere with each other at the lower ends. Thereafter, the shower attachment 1 can be placed and mechanically fastened in a manner not of interest here to the connection plate 11, whereupon the connection lines 14 and 15 invisible and with little weakening of the ceramic body 12 are guided in or through this.
- FIG. 5 schematically an alternative to the embodiment.
- the back of an indicated shower attachment 1 ' is shown, which has a recess 20 in the transition from its underside to its rear side facing the viewer, in which from the left (or right for the user of the toilet) side a water connection 21 opens an armored hose as a water-bearing connection line 14 'either via a right-angled corner piece 22 or, as in FIG. 6 , can be connected directly.
- the armored hose 14 'thus directed downward and can pass through an opening 7' in the top of a non-illustrated ceramic body.
- FIG. 5 the armored hose 14 'thus directed downward and can pass through an opening 7' in the top of a non-illustrated ceramic body.
- FIG. 5 already indicated channel piece 23 to the side of the shower attachment 1 'on.
- This channel piece is in the same way to the outside (namely bottom) open as the channel 5 in the previous embodiment.
- a channel 5 analog to the channel 24 for the electric cable 15 ' is led to the side.
- the recess 20 may be additionally provided for a hinge of a toilet lid or seat. However, it does not necessarily have to lie in the transition between the underside and the back of the shower attachment 1 ', but can also be further forward, approximately at approximately where the opening 7 at the first Embodiment is located. In this case, the electric cable 15 'could also emerge further out of the housing 2 or as in FIG. 1 be connected to the terminal 4 and then be guided by this on a channel at the bottom of the housing of the shower attachment 1 'to the recess 20.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein sogenanntes Dusch-WC, also ein WC (Wasserklosett) mit einer Duscheinrichtung, die in einem Duschbetrieb den Unterleib des WC-Benutzers reinigen kann.The present invention relates to a so-called shower toilet, so a toilet (water closet) with a shower device that can clean the abdomen of the toilet user in a shower operation.
Im Stand der Technik sind solche Dusch-WCs seit geraumer Zeit bekannt. Allgemein wird zwischen zwei Bauformen unterschieden, nämlich einerseits sogenannten Komplettgeräten und andererseits sogenannten Aufsatzgeräten. Bei der zuletzt genannten Gattung sitzt ein Duschaufsatz auf einem WC-Körper, der oft so genannten Keramik, auf und enthält in einem Gehäuse die Duscheinrichtung. Der Duschaufsatz ist zum Beispiel zur Wartung oder Reparatur von dem WC-Körper abnehmbar. In vielen Fällen handelt es sich bei den Duschaufsätzen um Nachrüstgeräte, die auch auf ursprünglich nicht eigens für die Duschfunktion ausgelegte WC-Körper aufgesetzt werden können.In the prior art, such shower toilets have been known for some time. Generally, a distinction is made between two types, namely, on the one hand, so-called complete devices and, on the other hand, so-called attachment devices. In the latter genus sits a shower attachment on a toilet body, often called ceramic, and contains in a housing the shower device. The shower attachment is removable from the toilet body for maintenance or repair, for example. In many cases, the shower heads are retrofit devices, which can also be placed on originally not designed specifically for the shower function toilet body.
Die Duscheinrichtung in dem Duschaufsatz benötigt einen Wasseranschluss und weist insoweit eine wasserführende Anschlussleitung auf. Praktisch ausnahmslos ist zusätzlich auch eine elektrische Anschlussleitung vorgesehen, um zum Beispiel einen Warmwasserbereiter, eine Pumpe, einen Motor für einen Duscharm oder ähnliche Einrichtungen betreiben zu können. Die elektrische und die wasserführende Anschlussleitung werden bei Aufsatzgeräten regelmäßig seitlich aus dem Gehäuse des Duschaufsatzes herausgeführt und, in der Regel etwas tiefer, an einer Wand hinter dem Dusch-WC angeschlossen. (Hierbei bezeichnet "hinter" die Tatsache, dass ein Benutzer mit Blick auf das Dusch-WC und die ihm zugewandte Schüssel im Regelfall das Dusch-WC vor einer Raumwand sieht, die dementsprechend aus seiner Perspektive hinter dem Dusch-WC liegt. "Seitlich" bedeutet in derselben Perspektive rechts bzw. links von dem Dusch-WC.)The shower device in the shower attachment requires a water connection and has a water-bearing connection line. Virtually without exception, an electrical connection line is additionally provided in order to be able to operate, for example, a water heater, a pump, a motor for a shower arm or similar devices. The electrical and the water-carrying connection line are regularly led out laterally from the housing of the shower attachment in attachment devices and, usually slightly deeper, connected to a wall behind the shower toilet. (Here "back" means the fact that a user looking at the shower toilet and the bowl facing him usually sees the shower toilet in front of a room wall, which is accordingly from his perspective behind the shower toilet. means in the same perspective right or left of the shower toilet.)
Eine andere Vorgehensweise findet sich zum Beispiel in den Dokumenten

Ausgehend von dem erwähnten Stand der Technik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein hinsichtlich der Verlegung der Anschlussleitungen eines Duschaufsatzes verbessertes Dusch-WC anzugeben.Based on the mentioned prior art, the present invention has the object to provide a respect to the laying of the connecting lines of a shower attachment improved shower toilet.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch ein Dusch-WC mit einem WC-Körper mit einer WC-Schüssel und einer oberseitigen Fläche neben einer oberseitigen Öffnung der WC-Schüssel und einem Duschaufsatz zur Montage auf der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers, welcher Duschaufsatz ein Gehäuse und darin eine Duscheinrichtung enthält und zumindest eine elektrische und eine wasserführende Anschlussleitung für die Duscheinrichtung aufweist, die jeweils außerhalb des Gehäuses mit einer Versorgung zu verbinden sind, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die oberseitige Fläche des WC-Körpers neben (im Sinn von zusätzlich zu) zumindest einer Einrichtung zur mechanischen Befestigung des Duschaufsatzes genau eine Durchtrittsöffnung zum gemeinsamen Hindurchführen der elektrischen und der wasserführenden Anschlussleitung aufweist.This object is achieved by a shower toilet with a toilet body with a toilet bowl and a top surface next to a top opening of the toilet bowl and a shower attachment for mounting on the top surface of the toilet body, which shower attachment a housing and it contains a shower device and at least one electrical and a water-carrying connection line for the shower device, which are to be connected outside the housing with a supply, characterized in that the upper side surface of the toilet body next to (in the sense of in addition to) at least one Device for mechanical attachment of the shower attachment has exactly one passage opening for the common passage of the electrical and the water-carrying connection line.
Die Grundidee der Erfindung liegt darin, die Zahl der Durchtrittsöffnungen aus dem zuletzt erwähnten Stand der Technik zu reduzieren, nämlich auf genau eine solche Durchrittsöffnung für die Anschlussleitungen. Der Erfinder sieht die sichtverdeckte Leitungsverlegung gemäß der
Ferner stellt jede zusätzliche Öffnung bei der Herstellung des WC-Körpers, aber auch bei dessen Reinigung, eine weitere "kritische Stelle" dar. Zum Beispiel muss auf die Durchgängigkeit einer Keramikglasur, auf saubere gratfreie Kanten am Rand der Öffnung in der Keramik (oder in anderen Materialien) etc. geachtet werden. Auch bei der Reinigung eines WCs sind grundsätzlich möglichst wenig unterbrochene und glatte Flächen gewünscht.Furthermore, each additional opening in the production of the toilet body, but also during its cleaning, another "critical point" is. For example, on the patency of a ceramic glaze, on clean burr-free edges on the edge of the opening in the ceramic (or in other materials) etc. are respected. Even when cleaning a toilet basically as little as possible interrupted and smooth surfaces are desired.
Andererseits spricht für die in dem zitierten deutschen Patent vorgenommene strikte Trennung zwischen der wasserführenden Anschlussleitung einerseits und der elektrischen Anschlussleitung andererseits, dass diese technischen Bereiche, also wasserbezogene Technik einerseits und elektrische andererseits, grundsätzlich eine gewisse Komplikationsneigung in Bezug aufeinander aufweisen und zum Beispiel in aller Regel in den Duschaufsätzen nach Möglichkeit getrennt werden. Insoweit ist es konsequent und vermeidet überdies Leitungslänge, die jeweiligen Anschlussleitungen direkt unter den ihnen zugeordneten technischen Bereichen in dem Duschaufsatz austreten und dann auch genau an der Stelle des Austritts in den WC-Körper eintreten zu lassen.On the other hand, for the strict separation made in the cited German patent between the water-carrying connection line on the one hand and the electrical connection line on the other hand, that these technical areas, ie water-related technology on the one hand and electrical on the other hand, basically have a certain complication tendency with respect to each other and, for example, as a rule be separated in the shower caps as far as possible. In that regard, it is consistent and also avoids line length, the respective connection lines directly under their assigned technical areas in the shower attachment exit and then to enter exactly at the point of exit into the toilet body.
Der Erfinder hat jedoch erkannt, dass mit der Reduzierung auf nur eine einzige Leitungsdurchtrittsöffnung auf der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers nicht zwingend zu starke Beeinträchtigungen durch Komplikationen zwischen der elektrischen Technik und der Wassertechnik verbunden sein müssen. Das betrifft insbesondere eine ausreichend ummantelte oder gekapselte Führung der elektrischen Anschlussleitung innerhalb des Gehäuses des Duschaufsatzes von einer Seite zur anderen, aber auch, wie weiter unten näher ausgeführt, eine solche "Querführung" außerhalb, aber an dem Gehäuse.However, the inventor has recognized that with the reduction to only a single passage opening on the top surface of the toilet body not necessarily excessive impairment due to complications between electrical engineering and water technology must be connected. This concerns in particular a sufficiently sheathed or encapsulated guidance of the electrical connection line within the housing of the shower attachment from one side to the other, but also, as explained in more detail below, such a "transverse guide" outside, but on the housing.
Wie in dem zitierten deutschen Patent bereits dargestellt, können die beiden Anschlussleitungen des Duschaufsatzes vorteilhafterweise in dem WC-Körper an weiterführende Anschlussleitungsstücke angeschlossen sein, die ihrerseits an der Rückseite des WC-Körpers an oder in eine Wand dahinter weitergeführt werden. Grundsätzlich besteht auch die Möglichkeit, die Anschlussleitungen ohne trennbare Anschlusseinrichtungen innerhalb des WC-Körpers an oder in die Wand zu führen; dies ist aber hinsichtlich Installation und eventuell späterem Ausbau des Dusch-WCs insgesamt oder des Duschaufsatzes weniger vorteilhaft. Jedenfalls kann in der beschriebenen Weise eine komplette Sichtverdeckung der Anschlussleitungen erreicht werden.As already shown in the cited German patent, the two connecting lines of the shower attachment can be advantageously connected in the toilet body to further connecting line pieces, which in turn are continued on the back of the toilet body on or in a wall behind it. In principle, it is also possible to lead the connection lines without separable connection devices within the toilet body or into the wall; However, this is less advantageous in terms of installation and possibly later expansion of the shower toilet as a whole or the shower attachment. In any case, in the manner described a complete Sichtverdeckung the connecting cables can be achieved.
Eingangs wurde bereits erläutert, dass der Grundgedanke der Erfindung eine Reduktion der Öffnungen in der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers betrifft. In diesem Sinn sollten neben der hier beschriebenen einen Öffnung für die Anschlussleitungen möglichst wenige zusätzliche Öffnungen vorhanden sein. Üblicherweise und vorteilhafterweise sind allerdings zwei (im Allgemeinen kleinere) Öffnungen zur Befestigung des Duschaufsatzes vorgesehen, beispielsweise zum Festschrauben einer Montageplatte, vgl. das zitierte deutsche Patent und das folgende Ausführungsbeispiel. Vorzugsweise beschränkt sich die Zahl der Öffnungen in der Oberseite des WC-Körpers in diesem Sinne auf drei.It has already been explained at the outset that the basic idea of the invention relates to a reduction of the openings in the upper surface of the WC body. In this sense, in addition to the one described here for opening the connecting lines as few additional openings should be present. Usually and advantageously, however, two (generally smaller) openings for attachment of the shower attachment are provided, for example, for tightening a mounting plate, see. the cited German patent and the following embodiment. Preferably, the number of openings in the top of the toilet body is limited to three in this sense.
Die Montage des Duschaufsatzes auf den WC-Körper erfolgt üblicherweise durch Aufschrauben oder anderweitige Befestigung einer Montageplatte des Aufsatzes auf dem WC-Körper und Befestigung des restlichen Duschaufsatzes daran. Allerdings ist im Rahmen dieser Erfindung nicht zwingend eine direkte Montage des Duschaufsatzes auf den WC-Körper vorausgesetzt. Es sind zum Beispiel auch Konstruktionen denkbar, in denen eine den WC-Sitzring und/oder WC-Deckel tragende und eher flach ausgeführte Vorrichtung "zwischengeschaltet" ist, so dass die Befestigung des Duschaufsatzes auf dem WC-Körper eine mittelbare ist.The installation of the shower attachment to the toilet body is usually done by screwing or otherwise securing a mounting plate of the attachment on the toilet body and attach the rest of the shower attachment. However, in the context of this invention is not necessarily a direct installation of the shower attachment to the toilet body required. For example, constructions are also conceivable in which a device carrying the toilet seat ring and / or toilet lid and rather flat is "interposed" so that the attachment of the shower attachment to the toilet body is an indirect one.
Die erfindungsgemäß einzige Öffnung für den Durchtritt der Anschlussleitungen liegt vorzugsweise unter einem Austritt der wasserführenden Leitung aus dem Gehäuse des Duschaufsatzes. Dabei ist natürlich keine mathematische Genauigkeit notwendig und zum Beispiel eine Toleranz (bezogen auf die Leitungsmitte und Öffnungsmitte) von etwa ± 5 mm in horizontaler Richtung realistisch. In dieser Form kann die wasserführende Leitung direkt mehr oder weniger vertikal nach unten geführt werden. Die wasserführende Leitung ist nämlich regelmäßig starrer als die elektrische, insbesondere bei einem sogenannten Panzerschlauch.The present invention only opening for the passage of the connecting lines is preferably under an outlet of the water-carrying line from the Housing of the shower attachment. In this case, of course, no mathematical accuracy is necessary and, for example, a tolerance (based on the line center and center of the opening) of about ± 5 mm in the horizontal direction realistic. In this form, the water-bearing pipe can be guided directly more or less vertically down. The water-bearing pipe is in fact regularly more rigid than the electrical, in particular in a so-called armored hose.
Andererseits ist die elektrische Anschlussleitung vergleichsweise flexibler. Da die von ihr versorgten Einrichtungen, wie weiter oben schon angesprochen, in der Regel räumlich deutlich getrennt von den wasserbezogenen Einrichtungen in dem Gehäuse des Duschaufsatzes untergebracht sind, wird also vorzugsweise die elektrische Anschlussleitung in die Nähe der Öffnung in dem WC-Körper verlegt. Vorteilhafterweise geschieht dies außerhalb des Gehäuses des Duschaufsatzes, und zwar besonders vorteilhafterweise in einer Befestigungseinrichtung des Gehäuses. In Betracht kommen insbesondere nach außen offene Kanäle, also langgestreckte Ausnehmungen, in denen die elektrische Anschlussleitung geklemmt und gleichzeitig untergebracht werden kann.On the other hand, the electrical connection line is comparatively more flexible. Since the devices supplied by it, as already mentioned above, are generally spatially separated from the water-related devices housed in the housing of the shower attachment, so preferably the electrical connection line is moved to the vicinity of the opening in the toilet body. Advantageously, this happens outside the housing of the shower attachment, and that particularly advantageously in a fastening device of the housing. Particularly suitable are outwardly open channels, ie elongated recesses in which the electrical connection line can be clamped and accommodated at the same time.
In einer solchen Befestigungseinrichtung kann dann die elektrische Anschlussleitung entlang dem Gehäuse von ihrem Leitungsaustritt bis zu der Öffnung bzw. einer Position an dem Gehäuse in direkter Nähe dazu geführt werden. Dabei kommen bevorzugt die Unterseite und die Rückseite des Gehäuses des Duschaufsatzes in Betracht. Die Unterseite ist dabei natürlich die der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers zugewandte Seite und die Rückseite die zu der Wand bzw., wenn es ausnahmsweise keine solche gibt, die von der WC-Schüssel abgewandte Seite. Besonders bevorzugterweise ist die Befestigungseinrichtung bzw. der Kanal in einem Übergang zwischen beiden Seiten des Gehäuses angeordnet, wozu auf das Ausführungsbeispiel verwiesen werden kann.In such a fastening device, the electrical connection line can then be guided along the housing from its line outlet to the opening or a position on the housing in direct proximity thereto. In this case, preferably the bottom and the back of the housing of the shower attachment come into consideration. The bottom is of course the top surface of the toilet body side facing and the back to the wall or, if there are exceptionally no such, the side facing away from the toilet bowl side. Particularly preferably, the fastening device or the channel is arranged in a transition between both sides of the housing, to which reference may be made to the embodiment.
Eine weitere Ausgestaltung dieses Erfindungsgedankens sieht vor, dass sich die Befestigungseinrichtung, etwa der Kanal, über die Breite des Gehäuses erstreckt, also von einer Seite (etwa rechts) bis zur entgegengesetzten Seite (etwa links) läuft. Das hat den Vorteil, dass mit demselben Duschaufsatz oder Dusch-WC auch Anschlusssituationen begegnet werden kann, in denen die elektrische Anschlussleitung außerhalb der Rückseite des WC-Körpers an der Wand angeschlossen wird, wobei dann sowohl die Seite links als auch die Seite rechts von dem Dusch-WC in Betracht kommen. Die Anschlussleitung wird insoweit einfach entlang des Kanals bis zur entsprechenden Seite des Dusch-WCs verlegt. Hierbei sieht die Erfindung zusätzlich optional vor, dass entlang dieses Verlaufs entlang der Breite ein Abzweig zu der Unterseite des Gehäuses existiert, und zwar dort zu einer Stelle an der einen Öffnung in dem WC-Körper. Dann sind quasi drei Möglichkeiten des Anschlusses abgedeckt, nämlich die erfindungsgemäße Möglichkeit in dem oder durch den WC-Körper hindurch und auch zwei Möglichkeiten rechts und links außerhalb davon.A further embodiment of this inventive concept provides that the fastening device, such as the channel, extends over the width of the housing, that is from one side (approximately right) to the opposite side (approximately on the left) running. This has the advantage that with the same shower attachment or shower toilet and connection situations can be met, in which the electrical connection line outside the back of the toilet body is connected to the wall, in which case both the left side and the right side of the Shower toilet are considered. The connecting line is so far simply laid along the channel to the corresponding side of the shower toilet. In this case, the invention additionally optionally provides that along this course along the width of a branch to the bottom of the housing exists, there to a point at the one opening in the toilet body. Then virtually three possibilities of connection are covered, namely the possibility according to the invention in or through the toilet body and also two possibilities right and left outside of it.
Vorsorglich wird darauf hingewiesen, dass der gerade beschriebene Erfindungsaspekt der über die Breite des Gehäuses verlaufenden Befestigungseinrichtung mit dem erwähnten Abzweig auch unabhängig von den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 in Betracht kommt und die Aufstellung entsprechender Ansprüche vorbehalten bleibt. Insbesondere sind also auch mehr als genau eine Öffnung in der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers für die Anschlussleitungen des Duschaufsatzes in diesem Zusammenhang denkbar, etwa zwei wie in dem zitierten deutschen Patent (wobei zumindest ein Abzweig zu zumindest einer davon führt). Natürlich betrifft dies auch eine Kombination mit den übrigen hier angesprochenen Merkmalen. Man kann sich diesen Erfindungsaspekt gewissermaßen an die Stelle des geltenden Hauptanspruchs gesetzt denken und insoweit auch kombiniert mit den übrigen abhängigen Ansprüchen vorstellen.As a precaution, it should be noted that the just described invention aspect of extending across the width of the housing attachment means with the mentioned branch is also independent of the features of
Eine weitere Ausgestaltung betrifft wieder die wasserführende Anschlussleitung. Deren Leitungsaustritt kann dabei statt aus einer flachen Unterseite des Gehäuses des Duschaufsatzes mehr oder weniger vertikal nach unten auch in eine äußere Ausnehmung (in dieser Unterseite oder am Rand derselben) hinein erfolgen, also auch horizontal. Dabei ist zusätzlich zwischen dieser Ausnehmung und einer hinteren oder seitlichen Außenseite des Gehäuses, vorzugsweise einer seitlichen, ein nach außen offenes Kanalstück an dem Gehäuse vorgesehen, durch das die wasserführende Anschlussleitung geführt werden kann. Dann kann die wasserführende Anschlussleitung wahlweise in der Ausnehmung nach unten durch die erwähnte eine Öffnung in dem WC-Körper oder seitlich durch das Kanalstück nach außen geführt werden, so dass sich vergleichbare Vorteile ergeben, wie zuvor in Bezug auf die elektrische Anschlussleitung diskutiert.Another embodiment relates again to the water-bearing connection line. Their cable outlet can take place instead of a flat bottom of the housing of the shower attachment more or less vertically down into an outer recess (in this bottom or at the edge thereof), ie also horizontally. It is additionally between this recess and a rear or lateral outside of the housing, preferably a lateral one provided to the outside open channel piece on the housing, through which the water-bearing connection line can be performed. Then, the water-bearing connection line can optionally be guided in the recess down through the mentioned one opening in the toilet body or laterally through the channel piece to the outside, so that there are comparable advantages, as discussed above with respect to the electrical connection line.
In diesem Zusammenhang kann für die elektrische Anschlussleitung ebenfalls ein Kanalstück zwischen der Ausnehmung und der entsprechenden (oder auch einer anderen) Außenseite des Gehäuses vorgesehen sein, wobei es sich im Einzelfall auch um das gleiche Kanalstück handeln kann, also um ein Kanalstück für beide Leitungen. Dies gilt zum Beispiel auch in Kombination mit einer Führung der elektrischen Anschlussleitung zu der Ausnehmung innerhalb des Gehäuses. Bevorzugt ist aber eine Führung dieser Anschlussleitung außerhalb des Gehäuses in einer Befestigungseinrichtung.In this context, a channel piece between the recess and the corresponding (or even another) outside of the housing may be provided for the electrical connection line, which in individual cases may also be the same channel piece, ie a channel piece for both lines. This also applies, for example, in combination with a guide of the electrical connection line to the recess within the housing. However, a guide of this connection line outside the housing in a fastening device is preferred.
Der Leitungsaustritt für die elektrische Anschlussleitung ist, auch unabhängig von dem gerade Diskutierten, vorzugsweise unmittelbar neben einer Klemmenabdeckung außen an dem Duschaufsatzgehäuse vorgesehen, wobei die Leitung unter oder hinter dieser Klemmenabdeckung an einer elektrischen Anschlussklemme angeklemmt ist. Bevorzugt ist eine Anordnung der Klemmenabdeckung an der Rückseite und ein Leitungsaustritt nach unten.The line outlet for the electrical connection line is, also independently of the just discussed, preferably provided immediately adjacent to a terminal cover outside the shower cap housing, wherein the line is clamped under or behind this terminal cover to an electrical terminal. Preferred is an arrangement of the terminal cover on the back and a line outlet down.
Obwohl im Rahmen dieser Erfindung eine Durchführung der beiden Anschlussleitungen durch eine gemeinsame Öffnung in der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers vorgesehen ist, soll trotzdem die grundsätzlich an sich bereits bekannte Trennung zwischen einem eher wasserbezogenen Technikteil einerseits und einem eher elektrischen Technikteil andererseits in dem Duschaufsatz beibehalten werden. Dementsprechend soll auf einer Seite ein Warmwasserbereiter, zum Beispiel ein Durchlauferhitzer oder Boiler, und auf der anderen Seite eine Elektroniksteuerung und ein Transformator für die Niederspannungsversorgung angeordnet sein, wobei die Aufteilung auf eine durch einen Duscharm der Duscheinrichtung definierte Mitte bezogen ist. In aller Regel ist ein beweglicher Duscharm vorgesehen, der in seiner zurückgezogenen Stellung aufgrund seiner Baulänge eine gewisse Unterteilung in dem Gehäuse vorgibt. Der Begriff der Seite bezieht sich hier also wieder auf links und rechts bezogen auf die eingangs angesprochene Perspektive des Benutzers vor dem WC.Although in the context of this invention, a implementation of the two connecting lines is provided by a common opening in the upper side surface of the toilet body, should still maintain the basically already known separation between a rather water-related technology part on the one hand and a more electrical engineering part on the other hand in the shower attachment become. Accordingly, should be arranged on one side of a water heater, for example, a water heater or boiler, and on the other hand, an electronic control and a transformer for the low-voltage supply, the division into a shower arm by a shower device defined center is related. As a rule, a movable shower arm is provided, which dictates a certain subdivision in the housing in its retracted position due to its length. The term of the page here refers again to left and right in relation to the above-mentioned perspective of the user in front of the toilet.
Typische und optionale zusätzliche Technikteile auf der Seite des Warmwasserbereiters können ein eingangseitiges Ventil, ein Druckminderer und eine Pumpe sein und typische Bestandteile des anderen Technikteils zum Beispiel Ventilatoren für eine Geruchsabsaugung, eine Föhneinrichtung und Ähnliches. Die wasserführende Anschlussleitung hat ihr Ende, also ihren duschaufsatzseitigen Anschluss, auf der entsprechenden Seite, also bei dem Frischwasseranschluss stromaufwärts von dem Warmwasserbereiter, und die elektrische Anschlussleitung dementsprechend auf der anderen Seite. Wie bereits erläutert, kann die Verlegung des Durchtrittspunkts durch die WC-Körperoberseite für zumindest eine der beiden Anschlussleitungen dann innerhalb und vorzugsweise außerhalb des Gehäuses erfolgen.Typical and optional additional engineering parts on the side of the water heater may be an input side valve, a pressure reducer, and a pump, and typical components of the other engineering part, for example, fans for odor extraction, a blow dryer, and the like. The water-bearing connection line has its end, ie its shower attachment side connection, on the corresponding side, ie at the fresh water connection upstream of the water heater, and the electrical connection line accordingly on the other side. As already explained, the passage of the passage point through the toilet body upper side for at least one of the two connection lines can then take place inside and preferably outside the housing.
Die bereits angesprochene bevorzugte Weiterführung der Anschlussleitungen oder an diese angeschlossener weiterführender Leitungen zu oder durch die Wand an der Rückseite des WC-Körpers ist bevorzugt kombiniert mit einer im Verhältnis zum Stand der Technik relativ engen Positionierung der beiden Leitungen, nämlich in einem Intervall von 30 mm und 300 mm zwischen den beiden Leitungen. Dabei gilt, dass weiter innenliegende Anschlusspositionen zunehmend bevorzugt sind, jedenfalls bis zu einer bestimmten Obergrenze. Dementsprechend sind anstelle der erwähnten 300 mm zunehmend bevorzugt folgende mittige Breiten als Obergrenzen (jeweils in mm): 275, 250, 225, 200, 175, 150, 125, 120, 115, 110. Bevorzugtere Untergrenzen sind in der folgenden Reihenfolge: 40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm. Diese nach beiden Seiten symmetrischen Angaben bedeuten natürlich nicht, dass zwei Anschlusspositionen vorhanden sein müssen bzw. zwei Anschlusspositionen symmetrisch liegen müssen. Es wird damit nur ein Bereich quantifiziert. Beispielsweise bedeutet die engste Grenze von 110 mm, dass die Mitte der Duschleitungs-Anschlusseinrichtung maximal 55 mm horizontal von der vertikalen Mittellinie entfernt liegen soll.The above-mentioned preferred continuation of the connection lines or connected to this continuing lines to or through the wall at the back of the toilet body is preferably combined with a relatively close relative to the prior art positioning of the two lines, namely at an interval of 30 mm and 300 mm between the two lines. It is true that further internal connection positions are increasingly preferred, at least up to a certain upper limit. Accordingly, instead of the mentioned 300 mm, the following central widths are increasingly preferred as upper limits (in mm in each case): 275, 250, 225, 200, 175, 150, 125, 120, 115, 110. More preferred lower limits are in the following order: 40 mm , 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm. Of course, these symmetrical specifications on both sides do not mean that two connection positions must be present or two connection positions must be symmetrical. It only quantifies one area. For example, the narrowest limit of 110 mm, that the center of the shower pipe connection device should be a maximum of 55 mm horizontally away from the vertical center line.
In diesem Zusammenhang ist auch bedeutsam, dass in der überwiegenden Mehrheit heutiger WCs quasi genormte Anschlusspositionen für die Spülwasserzuleitungs-Anschlusseinrichtung, die Abwasserleitungs-Anschlusseinrichtung und mechanische und bei hängenden WCs lasttragende Befestigungseinrichtungen, insbesondere Gewindestangen, existieren. Dabei sind die genannten Leitungsanschlüsse mittig vorgesehen, wobei natürlich die Spülwasserzuleitung über der Abwasserleitung verläuft, und sind in einem Höhenbereich knapp unter der Spülwasserzuleitungs-Anschlusseinrichtung seitlich 90 mm und 115 mm von der Mitte entfernt mechanische Anschlusseinrichtungen vorgegeben, insbesondere Gewindestangen auf der Wandseite und entsprechende Aufnahmebohrungen auf WC-Seite.In this context, it is also significant that in the vast majority of today's WCs quasi-standardized connection positions for the Spülwasserzuleitungs connection device, the sewer connection device and mechanical and hanging WCs load-bearing fasteners, in particular threaded rods exist. In this case, the said line connections are provided centrally, of course, the Spülwasserzuleitung runs over the sewer line, and are in a height range just below the Spülwasserzuleitungs connection device laterally 90 mm and 115 mm from the center remote mechanical connection devices specified, in particular threaded rods on the wall side and corresponding mounting holes on toilet side.
Diese mittigere Anordnung erleichtert die Zugänglichkeit der Anschlusseinrichtungen für einen Monteur oder Wartungstechniker, und zwar insbesondere von unten und erlaubt bzw. nutzt eine entsprechende Ausgestaltung der Rückseite des WCs. Üblicherweise weisen WCs nämlich um mittige Spülwasserzuleitungen und Abwasserleitungen der WC-Schüssel herum einen von der Rückseite freigehaltenen Bereich auf; in anderen Worten liegen die Anlageflächen des WC-Körpers an der Montagewand außerhalb dieses freien Bereichs. Eine entsprechende Anordnung der erwähnten Anschlusseinrichtungen lässt damit eine Gestaltung des WCs zu, bei der man von unten greifend die Anschlusseinrichtungen erreichen kann, ohne den WC-Körper demontieren zu müssen. Dies gilt je nach Anwendungsfall für ein Erreichen per Hand oder jedenfalls mit einem Werkzeug. Günstigerweise liegen diese Anschlusseinrichtungen ferner bezüglich der horizontalen Erstreckung knapp außerhalb des Bereichs der Spülwasser-Zuleitung für die WC-Schüssel und bezüglich der vertikalen Erstreckung etwa auf der Höhe von deren unterem Rand und zudem auf der Höhe der die Last des WC-Körpers tragenden Anschlusseinrichtungen. Dies sind allerdings nur bevorzugte und keinesfalls zwingende Positionen.This central arrangement facilitates the accessibility of the connection devices for a fitter or maintenance technician, in particular from below, and permits or uses a corresponding configuration of the rear side of the WC. Normally, WCs have an area which is kept clear of the rear side around central rinsing water supply lines and sewers of the toilet bowl. in other words, the contact surfaces of the toilet body are on the mounting wall outside of this free area. A corresponding arrangement of the mentioned connection devices thus allows a design of the WC, in which one can reach the connection devices from below, without having to disassemble the toilet body. This applies depending on the application for an achievement by hand or at least with a tool. Conveniently, these connection devices are also located with respect to the horizontal extent just outside the range of the flushing water supply line for the toilet bowl and with respect to the vertical extent approximately at the level of the lower edge and also at the height of the load of the toilet body supporting connection devices. However, these are only preferred and by no means compulsory positions.
Ferner sind Montagen bzw. Anschluss- oder Wartungsarbeiten in dem Bereich zwischen der Spülwasserzuleitung und der Abwasserleitung regelmäßig erschwert durch diese Leitungen bzw. deren Anschlusseinrichtungen. Es ist daher vorgesehen, dass die Mitte der zumindest einen Duschleitungs-Anschlusseinrichtung außerhalb der eigentlichen Mitte, konkret der mittleren 30 mm, liegt.Furthermore, assembly or connection or maintenance work in the area between the flushing water supply line and the sewage line are regularly impeded by these lines or their connection devices. It is therefore envisaged that the center of the at least one shower line connection device is located outside the actual middle, specifically the middle 30 mm.
Die erfindungsgemäße Öffnung im WC-Körper hat vorzugsweise in ihrer schmalsten Richtung eine Ausdehnung von mindestens 20 mm und besonders bevorzugt von mindestens 25 mm oder sogar 30 mm. In der Richtung der größten Ausdehnung ist die Öffnung vorzugsweise höchstens 60 mm und besonders bevorzugt höchstens 55 mm oder sogar nur 50 mm groß. Im Fall einer runden Öffnung gelten diese Maße natürlich für den Durchmesser, wobei dann der Bereich zwischen 40 mm und 45 mm Durchmesser besonders bevorzugt ist.The opening according to the invention in the toilet body preferably has, in its narrowest direction, an extension of at least 20 mm and particularly preferably of at least 25 mm or even 30 mm. In the direction of maximum extension, the opening is preferably at most 60 mm, and more preferably at most 55 mm or even only 50 mm in size. In the case of a round opening, of course, these dimensions apply to the diameter, in which case the range between 40 mm and 45 mm diameter is particularly preferred.
Ein typischer elektrischer Gerätestecker für die elektrische Anschlussleitung kann nämlich einen Durchmesser (entlang der Leitungsrichtung) in der Größenordnung von z. B. 30 mm haben. Ein typischer Panzerschlauch einer wasserführenden Anschlussleitung kann z. B. etwa 10 mm Durchmesser haben. Wenn also der Gerätestecker neben dem bereits durchgeführten Panzerschlauch durch die eine Öffnung im WC-Körper hindurch gesteckt werden soll, sind dazu größenordnungsmäßig etwa 30 mm in einer Richtung und etwa 40 mm in der Richtung senkrecht dazu (beide horizontal) als Öffnungsmaße nötig, also zum Beispiel ein Rechteck mit diesen Kantenmaßen oder eine Ellipse mit einer entsprechenden kurzen und langen Erstreckung oder auch eine Kreisform mit 40 mm Durchmesser. Da der WC-Körper nicht unnötig geschwächt werden soll, sollte die Öffnung andererseits nicht allzu groß sein, sodass in diesem Fall bevorzugt Maße bis etwa 45 mm x 55 mm in Betracht kommen.Namely, a typical electrical appliance plug for the electrical connection line can have a diameter (along the line direction) of the order of z. B. 30 mm. A typical armored hose of a water-bearing connection cable can, for. B. about 10 mm in diameter. So if the appliance plug is to be inserted next to the already carried tank hose through the opening in the toilet body through, are on the order of about 30 mm in one direction and about 40 mm in the direction perpendicular thereto (both horizontally) as opening dimensions necessary, ie For example, a rectangle with these edge dimensions or an ellipse with a corresponding short and long extension or a circular shape with a diameter of 40 mm. On the other hand, since the toilet body should not be unnecessarily weakened, the opening should not be too large, so in this case preferably dimensions up to about 45 mm x 55 mm come into consideration.
Vorzugsweise ist im Öffnungsmaßbereich von (bzgl. der kleinsten Ausdehnung) mindestens 30 mm und bis 60 mm auf der oberseitigen Fläche des WC-Körpers genau eine Öffnung vorhanden (was zusätzliche kleinere Öffnungen zum Beispiel zur Montage nicht ausschließt, wie bereits zuvor erläutert).Preferably, in the opening dimension range of (with respect to the smallest extent) at least 30 mm and up to 60 mm on the upper side surface of the toilet body exactly one opening is present (which does not preclude additional smaller openings, for example for assembly, as previously explained).
Die beiden Anschlussleitungen hängen von dem Duschaufsatz von dessen Montage nach unten herunter, um dann durch eine Öffnung geführt werden zu können. Dabei sollten Sie einen Abstand von nicht mehr als ungefähr 30 mm (bezogen auf die Leitungsmitte) und vorzugsweise nicht mehr als 25 mm haben.The two connecting lines hang down from the shower attachment from its mounting down to then be able to be passed through an opening. You should have a distance of no more than about 30 mm (relative to the center of the line) and preferably not more than 25 mm.
Mit den in den beiden vorangehenden Absätzen angesprochenen Geometriemerkmalen lassen sich Aussagen über für die Erfindung ausgestalteten WC-Körper und für die Erfindung ausgestaltete Duschaufsätze (jeweils für sich) formulieren, es sind aber von der Erfindung grundsätzlich alle ersichtlich spezifisch für die Erfindung ausgelegten Duschaufsätze und WC-Körper mitumfasst.With the mentioned in the two preceding paragraphs geometry statements can be formulated about the invention designed for the toilet body and designed for the invention shower caps (each for themselves), but there are basically all of the invention specifically designed for the invention shower caps and toilet Body included.
