So that the sealing ring 23 can, however, be pressed into the outlet mouthpiece 2 with a slight press fit, it is advantageous if an air gap 25 remains between the sealing ring 23 and the circumferential ring wall 24 projecting against the flow direction.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine sanitäre Einsetzeinheit mit einem am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur montierbaren Auslaufmundstück sowie mit einem belüfteten Strahlregler, der ein Strahlreglergehäuse hat, mit dem der Strahlregler in das Auslaufmundstück einsetzbar ist, und das einen Gehäuseeinlass und einen Gehäuseauslass hat, wobei das Strahlreglergehäuse in seinem Gehäuseinneren einen Strahlzerleger aufweist, wobei der Strahlregler mittels eines Dichtringes axial abgedichtet ist, der zwischen dem Strahlregler und dem auslaufseitigen Stirnrand der Auslaufarmatur einspannbar ist, wobei der Strahlregler an seiner zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche eine vom Dichtring umgriffene Ringwand hat, und wobei der Dichtring in axialer Richtung einerseits über die Ringwand und andererseits über den zulaufseitigen Stirnrand des Auslaufmundstücks vorsteht.The invention relates to a sanitary insertion unit with an outlet mouthpiece which can be mounted on the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting and with a ventilated jet regulator which has a jet regulator housing with which the jet regulator can be inserted into the outlet mouthpiece and which has a housing inlet and a housing outlet, the jet regulator housing in its Inside the housing has a jet splitter, the jet regulator being axially sealed by means of a sealing ring which can be clamped between the jet regulator and the outlet-side end edge of the outlet fitting, the jet regulator having an annular wall encompassed by the sealing ring on its inlet-side end face, and the sealing ring in the axial direction on the one hand protrudes over the ring wall and on the other hand over the inlet-side end edge of the outlet mouthpiece.

Man hat bereits verschiedene Einsetzeinheiten geschaffen, die am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur montierbar sind, um das dort austretende Wasser zu einem homogenen, nicht-spritzenden und gegebenenfalls auch perlend-weichen Wasserstrahl zu formen. Die vorbekannten Einsetzeinheiten weisen dazu einen Strahlregler mit einem Strahlreglergehäuse auf, in dessen Gehäuseinneren das durchströmende Wasser mit Umgebungsluft durchmischt werden kann. Das Strahlreglergehäuse solcher belüfteter Strahlregler weist einen mit dem lichten Leitungsquerschnitt am Wasserauslauf der sanitären Auslaufarmatur verbundenen Gehäuseeinlass und einen Gehäuseauslass auf, wobei das Strahlreglergehäuse in seinem Gehäuseinneren einen Strahlzerleger hat, der als topfförmiger Diffusor oder als Lochplatte ausgestaltet sein kann. Bei einem als topfförmiger Diffusor ausgestalteten Strahlzerleger dient der Topfboden als Prallfläche, die das den Strahlzerleger anströmende Wasser nach außen hin ablenkt. Dabei sind in der Umfangswandung der Topfform Durchflussöffnungen vorgesehen, durch die das Wasser durchströmen kann. Die Durchflussöffnungen münden in einem Ringkanal, der zwischen dem Außenumfang des topfförmigen Diffusors und einem den Diffusor umgreifenden Diffusorring gebildet ist. In den Durchflussöffnungen des Diffusors und ebenso in dem sich in Durchströmrichtung verjüngenden Ringkanal erfährt das durchströmende Wasser eine Geschwindigkeitserhöhung, die gemäß der Bernoullischen Gleichung abströmseitig einen Unterdruck zur Folge hat. Aufgrund dieses Unterdrucks wird Umgebungsluft angesaugt, die durch Belüftungsöffnungen in der Gehäuseumfangswandung des Strahlreglergehäuses in das Gehäuseinnere eintreten kann. Die vorbekannten Einsetzeinheiten mit ihrem Strahlregler, dem Strahlreglergehäuse, dem im Strahlreglergehäuse befindlichen Strahlzerleger sowie den in der Gehäuseumfangswandung des Strahlreglergehäuses vorgesehenen Belüftungsöffnungen haben eine gewisse Einbaulänge zur Folge, die ein entsprechend langes Auslaufmundstück notwendig macht. Da das Auslaufmundstück regelmäßig in der äußeren Aufmachung der Auslaufarmatur gefertigt wird und da Farbunterschiede zwischen der Auslaufarmatur und einem davon getrennt hergestellten Auslaufmundstück störend wahrgenommen werden, ist die Herstellung einer solchen Einsetzeinheit und des dazugehörigen Auslaufmundstücks mit einem erheblichen Herstellungsaufwand verbunden.Various insert units have already been created, which can be mounted on the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting in order to shape the water emerging there into a homogeneous, non-splashing and possibly also sparkling-soft water jet. For this purpose, the known insertion units have a jet regulator with a jet regulator housing, in the interior of which the flowing water can be mixed with ambient air. The jet regulator housing of such ventilated jet regulators has a housing inlet connected to the clear line cross section at the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting and a housing outlet, the jet regulator housing having a jet separator in its interior, which can be designed as a pot-shaped diffuser or as a perforated plate. In the case of a jet splitter designed as a pot-shaped diffuser, the pot base serves as a baffle surface, which the jet splitter incoming water deflects outwards. Flow openings through which the water can flow are provided in the peripheral wall of the pot shape. The flow openings open into an annular channel which is formed between the outer circumference of the cup-shaped diffuser and a diffuser ring encompassing the diffuser. In the flow openings of the diffuser and also in the ring channel tapering in the direction of flow, the water flowing through experiences an increase in speed which, according to the Bernoulli equation, results in a vacuum on the downstream side. Due to this negative pressure, ambient air is sucked in, which can enter the interior of the housing through ventilation openings in the peripheral wall of the jet regulator housing. The previously known insert units with their jet regulator, the jet regulator housing, the jet splitter located in the jet regulator housing and the ventilation openings provided in the peripheral wall of the jet regulator housing result in a certain installation length, which makes a correspondingly long outlet mouthpiece necessary. Since the outlet mouthpiece is regularly manufactured in the outer make-up of the outlet fitting and because color differences between the outlet fitting and a discharge mouthpiece manufactured separately from it are disruptive, the manufacture of such an insert unit and the associated outlet mouthpiece is associated with a considerable manufacturing outlay.

Aus Fig. 13 der EP 2 597 213 A1 ist eine gattungsgemäße sanitäre Einsetzeinheit mit einem belüfteten Strahlregler vorbekannt, der ein Strahlreglergehäuse hat, mit dem der Strahlregler in ein am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur montierbares Auslaufmundstück einsetzbar ist. Das Strahlreglergehäuse der vorbekannten Einsetzeinheit, das einen Gehäuseeinlass und einen Gehäuseauslass hat, weist in seinem Gehäuseinneren einen Strahlzerleger auf. Dabei ist der Strahlregler mittels eines Dichtringes axial abgedichtet, der zwischen dem Strahlregler und dem auslaufseitigen Stirnrand der Auslaufarmatur einspannbar ist, wobei der Strahlregler an seiner zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche eine vom Dichtring umrundete Ringwand hat und wobei der Dichtring in axialer Richtung einerseits über die Ringwand und andererseits über den zulaufseitigen Stirnrand des Auslaufmundstücks vorsteht. Der als Flachdichtung ausgebildete Dichtring der aus EP 2 597 213 A1 vorbekannten Einsetzeinheit weist eine Höhe auf, die etwa der Dicke des Dichtringes entspricht, so dass bei axialer Druckbeaufschlagung ein Abknicken des Dichtringes und damit eine Schwächung der axialen Abdichtung vermieden ist.From Fig. 13 the EP 2 597 213 A1 is a generic sanitary insert unit with a ventilated jet regulator, which has a jet regulator housing with which the jet regulator can be inserted into an outlet mouthpiece which can be fitted to the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting. The jet regulator housing of the known insertion unit, which has a housing inlet and a housing outlet, is shown in FIG a jet splitter on the inside of the housing. The jet regulator is axially sealed by means of a sealing ring which can be clamped between the jet regulator and the outlet-side end edge of the outlet fitting, the jet regulator having an annular wall surrounded by the sealing ring on its inlet-side end face and the sealing ring in the axial direction on the one hand over the ring wall and on the other hand protrudes the inlet-side end edge of the outlet mouthpiece. The sealing ring designed as a flat seal EP 2 597 213 A1 previously known insert unit has a height which corresponds approximately to the thickness of the sealing ring, so that when the axial pressure is applied, the sealing ring is prevented from kinking and thus a weakening of the axial seal.

In der DE 10 2010 048 702 A1 sind verschiedene Ausführungen einer sanitären Einsetzeinheit vorbeschrieben, die jeweils auch einen Strahlbelüfter aufweisen. Soweit die dort vorbeschriebenen Ausführungen mit einem axial abdichtenden Dichtring dargestellt sind, weisen die vorbekannten Einsetzeinheiten ein Strahlreglergehäuse mit einem am Gehäuseaußenumfang vorgesehenen Außengewinde auf, das auch ohne Zuhilfenahme eines Auslaufmundstücks direkt in ein Innengewinde eingeschraubt werden kann, welches am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur innenumfangsseitig vorgesehen ist. Dabei weisen die vorbekannten Einsetzeinheiten an der zulaufseitigen Stirnseite ihres Strahlreglergehäuses eine Nut auf, in die der Dichtring eingelegt ist, der jedoch eine im Vergleich zur Höhe eher größere Dicke hat und deshalb auch bei übergroßem axialen Druck nicht kollabieren kann.In the DE 10 2010 048 702 A1 Various versions of a sanitary inserting unit are described, each of which also has a jet aerator. Insofar as the designs described there are shown with an axially sealing sealing ring, the known insert units have a jet regulator housing with an external thread provided on the outer circumference of the housing, which can also be screwed directly into an internal thread without the aid of an outlet mouthpiece, which is provided on the inside of the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting . The known insert units have a groove on the inlet-side end of their jet regulator housing, in which the sealing ring is inserted, which, however, is thicker in comparison to the height and therefore cannot collapse even under excessive axial pressure.

Aus der DE 203 04 659 U1 ist eine sanitäre Auslaufeinheit vorbekannt, die einen abströmseitigen Strahlbelüfter mit einem Strahlreglergehäuse hat, an dessen zulaufseitiger Stirnfläche ein hülsenförmiger Gehäuseabschnitt reduzierten Querschnitts angeformt ist, in welchem Gehäuseabschnitt ein Vorsatzsieb und ein zwischen Vorsatzsieb und Strahlbelüfter angeordneter Durchflussmengenregler angeordnet sind. Die vorbekannte Auslaufeinheit ist mit Hilfe eines Auslaufmundstücks am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur montierbar, ohne dass in der DE 203 04 659 U1 näher beschrieben wäre, ob und wie die vorbekannte Auslaufeinheit gegenüber dem Wasserauslauf der sanitären Auslaufarmatur abgedichtet wird.From the DE 203 04 659 U1 A sanitary outlet unit is previously known which has an outflow-side jet aerator with a jet regulator housing, on the inlet-side end face of which a sleeve-shaped housing section of reduced cross-section is formed in which housing section an attachment screen and a flow rate regulator arranged between the attachment screen and jet aerator are arranged. The known outlet unit can be mounted with the help of an outlet mouthpiece on the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting, without having to DE 203 04 659 U1 would be described in more detail whether and how the previously known outlet unit is sealed off from the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting.

Es besteht die Aufgabe, eine sanitäre Einsetzeinheit der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, deren Herstellung und Montage mit einem erheblich reduzierten Aufwand verbunden ist, wobei auch im Falle axialer Kompression der axialen Abdichtung dieser Einsetzeinheit ein Kollabieren dieser Abdichtung vermieden werden soll.The object is to create a sanitary insert unit of the type mentioned at the outset, the manufacture and assembly of which are associated with a considerably reduced outlay, and in the case of axial compression of the axial seal of this insert unit as well, a collapse of this seal should be avoided.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht bei der sanitären Einsetzeinheit der eingangs erwähnten Art darin, dass der Dichtring eine im Vergleich zur Dicke größere Höhe aufweist, dass die Ringwand den Dichtring im Falle axialer Kompression gegen seitliches Ausknicken des Dichtringes abstützt, dass der Strahlregler ein Strahlreglergehäuse hat, das ein zulaufseitiges und ein auslaufseitiges Gehäuseteil aufweist, dass ein als Diffusor oder als Lochplatte ausgestalteter Strahlzerleger von der zulaufseitigen Gehäusestirnseite aus in das zulaufseitige Gehäuseteil einsetzbar ist, dass an der zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche des Strahlzerlegers die Ringwand einstückig angeformt ist, und dass die Ringwand ein Reglergehäuse einer Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit umgreift.A solution to this problem according to the invention for the sanitary insert unit of the type mentioned at the outset is that the sealing ring has a greater height than the thickness, that the ring wall supports the sealing ring in the event of axial compression against lateral buckling of the sealing ring, that the jet regulator has a jet regulator housing , which has an inlet-side and an outlet-side housing part, that a jet splitter configured as a diffuser or a perforated plate can be inserted into the inlet-side housing part from the inlet-side housing end, that the ring wall is integrally formed on the inlet-side end face of the jet splitter, and that the ring wall is a regulator housing of a flow rate control unit.

Die erfindungsgemäße Einsetzeinheit weist einen belüfteten Strahlregler auf, der mit seinem Srahlreglergehäuse in ein am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur montierbares Auslaufmundstück einsetzbar ist, wobei der Strahlregler mittels eines Dichtringes axial abgedichtet ist, der zwischen dem Strahlregler und dem auslaufseitigen Stirnrand der Auslaufarmatur einspannbar ist, wobei der Strahlregler an seiner zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche eine vom Dichtring umgriffene Ringwand hat und wobei der Dichtring einerseits über die Ringwand und andererseits über den zulaufseitigen Stirnrand des Auslaufmundstücks vorsteht.The insert unit according to the invention has a ventilated jet regulator, which can be inserted with its jet regulator housing into an outlet mouthpiece which can be mounted on the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting, the jet regulator is axially sealed by means of a sealing ring which can be clamped between the jet regulator and the outlet-side end edge of the outlet fitting, the jet regulator having an annular wall encompassed by the sealing ring on its inlet-side end surface and the sealing ring projecting on the one hand over the ring wall and on the other hand over the inlet-side end edge of the outlet nozzle .

Bei dieser erfindungsgemäßen Einsetzeinheit wird der Strahlregler mit seinem Strahlreglergehäuse in ein am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur montierbares Auslaufmundstück eingesetzt. Um das Strahlreglergehäuse gegenüber dem Wasserauslauf der sanitären Auslaufarmatur abzudichten, ist ein axial abdichtender Dichtring vorgesehen, der zwischen dem Strahlregler und dem auslaufseitigen Stirnrand der Auslaufarmatur einspannbar ist. Der Strahlregler weist nun an seiner zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche eine vom Dichtring umgriffene Ringwand auf, wobei der Dichtring in axialer Richtung einerseits über die Ringwand und andererseits über den zulaufseitigen Stirnrand des Auslaufmundstückes vorsteht. Insbesondere bei einer besonders kompakten Ausgestaltung der Einsetzeinheit und ihres Strahlreglers steht für den zur axialen Abdichtung benötigten Dichtring nur ein sehr geringer Bauraum zur Verfügung. Da der Dichtring aufgrund eines sicheren Haltens im Auslaufmundstück einerseits und eines geforderten Norm-Überstandes aus dem Auslaufmundstück heraus andererseits ein sehr schlankes Höhen- zu Dickenverhältnis aufweisen kann, und da der Dichtring dazu im Vergleich zur Dicke größere Höhe aufweist, besteht hier die Gefahr, dass der Dichtring beim Anziehen des Auslaufmundstücks am Wasserauslauf der sanitären Auslaufarmatur nach innen kollabiert, was ein sicheres, dichtes Befestigen des Auslaufmundstücks sowie der darin befindlichen Einsetzeinheit am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufarmatur behindert. Da aber der Strahlregler der erfindungsgemäßen Einsetzeinheit an seiner zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche eine vom Dichtring umgriffene Ringwand hat, und da diese Ringwand den Dichtring im Falle axialer Kompression gegen seitliches Ausknicken des Dichtringes abstützt, wird der Dichtring im Falle axialer Kompression mittels der Ringwand gegen ein solches seitliches Ausknicken abgestützt. Dabei kann der Dichtring in einem Presssitz innenumfangsseitig am Auslaufmundstück anliegen, so dass der Dichtring sowohl sich selbst als auch die Einsetzeinheit bei dem mit der Montage der Einsetzeinheit in der Auslaufarmatur verbundenen Handling und insbesondere bei einem kopfüber durchgeführten Handling sichert. Damit jedoch der Dichtring in das Auslaufmundstück in einem leichten Presssitz eingedrückt werden kann, ist es zweckmäßig, wenn zwischen dem Dichtring und der entgegen der Durchströmrichtung nach oben vorstehenden Ringwand ein geringfügiger Luftspalt oder Freiraum verbleibt.In this insert unit according to the invention, the jet regulator with its jet regulator housing is inserted into an outlet mouthpiece which can be fitted to the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting. In order to seal the jet regulator housing from the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting, an axially sealing sealing ring is provided which can be clamped between the jet regulator and the end edge of the outlet fitting on the outlet side. The jet regulator now has an annular wall encircled by the sealing ring on its inlet-side end face, the sealing ring projecting in the axial direction on the one hand over the ring wall and on the other hand over the inlet-side end edge of the outlet mouthpiece. Particularly in the case of a particularly compact design of the insert unit and its jet regulator, only a very small installation space is available for the sealing ring required for the axial seal. Since the sealing ring can have a very slim height to thickness ratio on the one hand due to a secure holding in the outlet mouthpiece on the one hand and a required protrusion from the outlet mouthpiece on the other hand, and since the sealing ring has a greater height than the thickness, there is a risk that the sealing ring collapses inwards when the outlet mouthpiece is tightened at the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting, which hinders secure, tight fastening of the outlet mouthpiece and the insert unit located therein to the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting. But since the jet regulator of the insert unit according to the invention its inlet end face has a ring wall encompassed by the sealing ring, and since this ring wall supports the sealing ring in the case of axial compression against lateral buckling of the sealing ring, the sealing ring is supported in the case of axial compression by means of the ring wall against such a lateral buckling. The sealing ring can lie in a press fit on the inside circumference of the outlet mouthpiece, so that the sealing ring secures both itself and the insertion unit in the handling associated with the installation of the insertion unit in the outlet fitting, and in particular in the case of handling carried out upside down. However, so that the sealing ring can be pressed into the outlet mouthpiece in a slight press fit, it is expedient if a slight air gap or free space remains between the sealing ring and the ring wall projecting upward against the flow direction.

Dabei hat der Strahlregler der erfindungsgemäßen Einsetzeinheit ein Strahlreglergehäuse, das ein zulaufseitiges und ein auslaufseitiges Gehäuseteil aufweist, wobei ein als Diffusor oder Lochplatte ausgestalteter Strahlzerleger von der zulaufseitigen Gehäusestirnseite aus in das zulaufseitige Gehäuseteil einsetzbar ist.An der zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche des Strahlzerlegers ist die Ringwand einstückig angeformt. Diese Ringwand umgreift ein Reglergehäuse einer Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit.The jet regulator of the insert unit according to the invention has a jet regulator housing which has an inlet-side and an outlet-side housing part, wherein a jet splitter designed as a diffuser or perforated plate can be inserted into the inlet-side housing part from the inlet-side housing front side . This ring wall surrounds a controller housing of a flow rate controller unit.

Diese Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit kann bei Bedarf an ihrer zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche mit dem Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb verbunden sein. Um nun die Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit auf der Zuströmseite der erfindungsgemäßen Einsetzeinheit sicher und dennoch mit geringem Aufwand befestigen zu können, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn zwischen der Ringwand und dem Reglergehäuse eine Rastverbindung vorgesehen ist.This flow rate regulator unit can, if required, be connected to the front screen or filter screen on its inlet end face. In order to be able to secure the flow rate regulator unit on the inflow side of the insertion unit according to the invention safely and yet with little effort, it is advantageous if a snap-in connection is provided between the ring wall and the regulator housing.

Die einfache Herstellung der erfindungsgemäßen Einsetzeinheit wird noch zusätzlich wesentlich erleichtert, wenn die zwischen der Ringwand und dem Reglergehäuse vorgesehene Rastverbindung mit Abstand unterhalb des freien Stirnrandes der Ringwand angeordnet ist. Somit kann das Reglergehäuse der Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit in die Ringwand eingesetzt werden, wobei eine lagegerechte Anordnung zwischen dem Reglergehäuse der Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit und den übrigen Bestandteilen der Einsetzeinheit sichergestellt wird. Durch weiteren Druck auf die in der Ringwand zentrierte Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit lässt sich diese sicher und fest mit den übrigen Bestandteilen der Einsetzeinheit verbinden.The simple manufacture of the insert unit according to the invention is additionally considerably facilitated if the snap-in connection provided between the ring wall and the controller housing is at a distance below the free end edge the ring wall is arranged. The controller housing of the flow rate controller unit can thus be inserted into the ring wall, ensuring an appropriate position between the controller housing of the flow rate controller unit and the other components of the insert unit. By further pressure on the flow rate control unit centered in the ring wall, this can be securely and firmly connected to the other components of the insertion unit.

Nachstehend wird eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform gemäß der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung noch näher erläutert.Further developments according to the invention result from the claims in conjunction with the drawings and the description.

In den Figuren 1 und 2 sowie 3 bis 6 sind zwei verschiedene Ausführungen einer sanitären Einsetzeinheit 1 dargestellt. Die sanitäre Einsetzeinheit 1 ist in ein hülsenförmiges Auslaufmundstück 2 einsetzbar, das am Wasserauslauf einer hier nicht weiter gezeigten Auslaufarmatur montierbar ist. Die sanitäre Einsetzeinheit 1 weist einen Strahlregler 3 auf, der hier als belüfteter Strahlregler ausgebildet ist. Der Strahlregler 3 hat ein Strahlreglergehäuse, dessen zulaufseitige Gehäusestirnfläche einen Gehäuseeinlass 4 bildet, während die abströmseitige Gehäusestirnfläche als Gehäuseauslass 5 ausgebildet ist. Im Strahlreglergehäuse ist ein Strahlzerleger 6 vorgesehen, der hier als topfförmiger Diffusor ausgebildet ist. Dieser topfförmige Diffusor weist einen Topfboden 7 auf, der als Prallfläche dient, die das durchströmende Wasser nach außen hin ablenkt. Der topfförmige Diffusor weist in der Umfangswandung seiner Topfform wenigstens eine Durchströmöffnung und vorzugsweise - wie hier - mehrere, insbesondere in gleichmäßigen Abständen voneinander angeordnete Durchströmöffnungen 8 auf, die in einem Ringkanal 9 münden.In the Figures 1 and 2 and 3 to 6 two different versions of a sanitary inserting unit 1 are shown. The sanitary insert unit 1 can be inserted into a sleeve-shaped outlet mouthpiece 2, which can be mounted on the water outlet of an outlet fitting (not shown further here). The sanitary inserting unit 1 has a jet regulator 3, which is designed here as a ventilated jet regulator. The jet regulator 3 has a jet regulator housing, the inlet-side housing end face of which forms a housing inlet 4, while the outlet-side housing end surface is designed as a housing outlet 5. A jet splitter 6 is provided in the jet regulator housing and is designed here as a pot-shaped diffuser. This pot-shaped diffuser has a pot bottom 7, which serves as a baffle that deflects the water flowing through to the outside. The pot-shaped diffuser has at least one through-flow opening in the peripheral wall of its pot shape and preferably — as here — a plurality of through-flow openings 8, in particular arranged at uniform intervals from one another, which open into an annular channel 9.

Der Strahlregler 3 weist in einer Gehäuseumfangswandung seines Strahlreglergehäuses zumindest einen Belüftungskanal 10 auf, dessen Kanalauslassöffnung im Gehäuseinneren mündet. Über diesen zumindest einen Belüftungskanal 10 kann Umgebungsluft in das Gehäuseinnere des Strahlreglergehäuses eingesaugt werden, die dort mit dem durchfließenden Wasser zu einem homogenen, nicht-spritzenden und insbesondere auch perlend-weichen Wasserstrahl geformt wird.The jet regulator 3 has at least one ventilation duct 10 in a housing peripheral wall of its jet regulator housing whose duct outlet opening opens into the interior of the housing. Via this at least one ventilation duct 10, ambient air can be sucked into the interior of the jet regulator housing, which is shaped there with the water flowing through to form a homogeneous, non-splashing and in particular also pearly-soft water jet.

Um die sanitäre Einsetzeinheit 1 und ihren Strahlregler 3 möglichst kompakt ausgestalten zu können, ist der dem Gehäuseauslass 5 zugewandte Öffnungsrand 11 der Kanalauslassöffnung des zumindest einen Belüftungskanals 10 oberhalb einer durch die auslassseitige Stirnfläche 12 des Strahlzerlegers 6 verlaufenden Querschnittsebene des Strahlreglergehäuses angeordnet. Auf diese Weise lässt sich die Bauhöhe der dem Ringkanal 9 in Strömungsrichtung folgenden Mischkammer M, in der das mit Umgebungsluft durchmischte Wasser aufbereitet wird, wesentlich reduzieren. Der zumindest eine Belüftungskanal 10 ist hier derart in Richtung zum Gehäuseeinlass 4 positioniert, dass der dem Gehäuseauslass 5 zugewandte Öffnungsrand 11 der Kanalauslassöffnung des zumindest einen Belüftungskanals 10 oberhalb einer durch die auslassseitige Kanalöffnung 13 des Ringkanales 9 verlaufenden Querschnittsebene angeordnet ist. Durch diese Anordnung der Belüftungskanäle 10 und ihrer Kanalauslassöffnungen, bei der die den Ringkanal 9 außenseitig umgrenzende Kanalwand die Kanalauslassöffnungen der Belüftungskanäle 10 bereichsweise überdeckt, wird eine besonders gute und intensive Durchmischung der in das Gehäuseinnere des Strahlreglergehäuses angesaugten Luft mit dem im Ringkanal 9 beschleunigten Wasser erreicht. Durch diese in Richtung zum Gehäuseeinlass 4 hochpositionierte Anordnung der Belüftungskanäle 10 wird vermieden, dass das mit Umgebungsluft durchmischte Wasser nach außen spritzt und damit das Ansaugen weiterer Luft verhindert.In order to be able to design the sanitary insert unit 1 and its jet regulator 3 as compactly as possible, the opening edge 11 of the duct outlet opening of the at least one ventilation duct 10 facing the housing outlet 5 is arranged above a cross-sectional plane of the jet regulator housing that runs through the outlet-side end face 12 of the jet splitter 6. In this way, the overall height of the mixing chamber M following the annular channel 9 in the flow direction, in which the water mixed with ambient air is treated, can be significantly reduced. The at least one ventilation duct 10 is positioned here in the direction of the housing inlet 4 such that the opening edge 11 of the duct outlet opening of the at least one ventilation duct 10 facing the housing outlet 5 is arranged above a cross-sectional plane running through the outlet-side duct opening 13 of the annular duct 9. This arrangement of the ventilation ducts 10 and their duct outlet openings, in which the duct wall bordering the ring duct 9 on the outside covers the duct outlet openings of the ventilation ducts 10 in regions, achieves particularly good and intensive mixing of the air sucked into the interior of the jet regulator housing with the water accelerated in the ring duct 9 . This arrangement of the ventilation channels 10, which is positioned high in the direction of the housing inlet 4, prevents the water mixed with ambient air from splashing outward and thus preventing further air from being sucked in.

Wie aus einem Vergleich der Figuren 1 bis 6 deutlich wird, steht der Strahlzerleger 6 wenigstens abschnittsweise in einen Diffusorring 33 vor, der zwischen sich und dem Strahlzerleger 6 den Ringkanal 9 begrenzt. Der Diffusorring 33, der hier auch als zuströmseitiges Gehäuseteil eines im wesentlichen zweiteiligen Strahlreglergehäuses ausgebildet ist, ist in ein auslaufseitiges Gehäuseteil 26 des Strahlreglergehäuses einsetzbar, bis ein außenumfangsseitig am Diffusorring 33 angeordneter Ringabsatz 14 auf einer zulaufseitigen Gegenfläche am auslaufseitigen Gehäuseteil 26 aufliegt. Am Diffusorring 33 ist außenumfangsseitig eine umlaufende Rastnocke 15 vorgesehen, die mit einer am auslaufseitigen Gehäuseteil 26 innenumfangsseitig vorgesehenen Rastnut 16 verrastbar ist. Dabei hat die Rastnocke 15 eine Auflaufschräge 17, die mit einer der Rastnut 16 in Einsetzrichtung vorgeschalteten Gegenschräge 18 zusammenwirkt.As from a comparison of the Figures 1 to 6 becomes clear, the jet splitter 6 protrudes at least in sections into a diffuser ring 33 which delimits the ring channel 9 between itself and the jet splitter 6. The diffuser ring 33, which is also designed here as an inflow-side housing part of an essentially two-part jet regulator housing, can be inserted into an outlet-side housing part 26 of the jet regulator housing until a ring shoulder 14 arranged on the outer circumferential side on the diffuser ring 33 rests on an inlet-side counter surface on the outlet-side housing part 26. A circumferential latching cam 15 is provided on the diffuser ring 33 on the outer circumference and can be latched with a latching groove 16 provided on the outlet-side housing part 26. The locking cam 15 has a run-up slope 17 which cooperates with a counter slope 18 upstream of the locking groove 16 in the direction of insertion.

Die Gegenschräge 18 am auslaufseitigen Gehäuseteil 26 weist hier im Vergleich zur Auflaufschräge 17 an der Rastnocke 15 des Diffusorrings 33 einen gegenüber der Strahlregler-Längsachse größeren Neigungswinkel auf. Durch diese unterschiedlichen Neigungswinkel von Auflaufschräge 17 und Gegenschräge 18 ist es möglich, den Diffusorring 33 und das auslaufseitige Gehäuseteil 26, gegebenenfalls auch in einem automatisierten Herstellungs- und Montageprozess, mit hoher Geschwindigkeit zu montieren. Durch die gewählte geometrische Ausgestaltung der Auflaufschräge 17 sowie der korrespondierenden Gegenschräge 18 ist die Aufdehnungsgeschwindigkeit am auslaufseitigen Gehäuseteil 26 nicht so groß, wie beispielsweise bei einer Gestaltung mit Einlaufradien. Durch diese geringere Dehnungsgeschwindigkeit können auch bei schneller Montage Dehnungsrisse am auslaufseitigen Gehäuseteil 26 während des Montagevorganges wirksam verhindert werden; gleichzeitig sind auch geringere Montagekräfte ausreichend, um die zwischen dem Diffusorring 33 und dem auslaufseitigen Gehäuseteil 26 vorgesehene Rastverbindung zu bewerkstelligen. Während der Neigungswinkel der Gegenschräge 18 vorzugsweise etwa 45° bemisst, weist die Auflaufschräge 17 demgegenüber einen Neigungswinkel gegenüber der Strahlregler-Längsachse von etwa 35° auf.The counter bevel 18 on the outlet-side housing part 26 here has a greater inclination angle than the jet regulator longitudinal axis in comparison to the ramp bevel 17 on the locking cam 15 of the diffuser ring 33. These different angles of inclination of the bevel 17 and counter bevel 18 make it possible to assemble the diffuser ring 33 and the outlet-side housing part 26 at high speed, optionally also in an automated manufacturing and assembly process. Due to the selected geometric configuration of the run-up bevel 17 and the corresponding counter-bevel 18, the rate of expansion at the outlet-side housing part 26 is not as great as, for example, in the case of a design with inlet radii. As a result of this lower expansion speed, expansion cracks on the outlet-side housing part 26 can be effectively prevented even during rapid assembly during the assembly process; at the same time, lower assembly forces are sufficient, to bring about the locking connection provided between the diffuser ring 33 and the outlet-side housing part 26. While the angle of inclination of the counter bevel 18 is preferably approximately 45 °, the ramp 17 has an angle of inclination with respect to the jet regulator longitudinal axis of approximately 35 °.

Wie in den Figuren 1 bis 6 ersichtlich ist, ist dem Strahlregler 3 ein vorzugsweise konisch ausgebildetes Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb 19 vorgeschaltet. Wie bei dem in Figur 1 und 2 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ersichtlich ist, kann zwischen dem Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb 19 und dem Strahlregler 3 eine Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 angeordnet sein, die das zum Strahlregler 3 pro Zeiteinheit durchströmende Wasservolumen auf einen festgelegten druckunabhängigen Wert einzuregeln hat.As in the Figures 1 to 6 It can be seen that the jet regulator 3 is preceded by a preferably conical attachment or filter screen 19. Like the one in Figure 1 and 2 Embodiment shown, can be arranged between the front screen or filter 19 and the jet regulator 3, a flow rate controller unit 20, which has to regulate the water volume flowing through to the jet controller 3 per unit time to a fixed pressure-independent value.

Der Strahlregler 3 ist mit seinem Strahlreglergehäuse in ein am Wasserauslauf einer sanitären Auslaufeinheit montierbares Auslaufmundstück 2 einsetzbar. Dabei wird der Strahlregler von der zuströmseitigen Stirnseite aus in das Auslaufmundstück 2 eingesetzt, bis ein am Strahlreglergehäuse außenumfangsseitig angeordneter Ringabsatz 21 auf einem am Innenumfang des hülsenförmigen Auslaufmundstücks 2 angeordneten Ringabsatz 22 aufliegt. Dabei wird der Strahlregler 3 mittels eines Dichtringes 23 axial abgedichtet, der zwischen dem Strahlregler 3 und dem auslaufseitigen Stirnrand der Auslaufarmatur einspannbar ist. Aufgrund der angestrebten kompakten Ausgestaltung des Strahlreglers 3 und wegen des auf der Zuströmseite des Strahlreglers 3 durch das Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb 19 und die Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 eingeschränkten Bauraumes steht für den zur axialen Abdichtung benötigten Dichtring nur ein sehr geringer Platz zur Verfügung. Da dieser Dichtring 23 zum sicheren Halt im Auslaufmundstück 2 und eventuell auch aufgrund eines geforderten Norm-Überstandes ein sehr schlankes Höhen- zu Dickenverhältnis aufweisen kann, besteht die Gefahr, dass der Dichtring 23 beim Anziehen des Auslaufmundstückes 2 nach innen kollabiert, wodurch ein sicheres und dichtes Befestigen des Strahlreglers 3 am Wasserauslauf der sanitären Auslaufarmatur behindert wird. Der Strahlregler 3 weist daher an seiner zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche eine vom Dichtring 23 umgriffene Ringwand 24 auf, wobei der Dichtring 23 einerseits über die Ringwand 24 und andererseits über den zulaufseitigen Stirnrand des Auslaufmundstücks 2 vorsteht. Die Ringwand 24 stützt den hier als Flachdichtung ausgebildeten Dichtring 23 im Falle axialer Kompression gegen seitliches Ausknicken ab. Dabei liegt der Dichtring 23 mit Presssitz am Innenumfang des Auslaufmundstücks 2 an, so dass der Dichtring 23 sowohl sich selbst als auch den Strahlregler 3 sichert, wenn beispielsweise die sanitäre Einsetzeinheit am Wasserauslauf der sanitären Auslaufarmatur insbesondere kopfüber montiert werden muss. Damit der Dichtring 23 jedoch in das Auslaufmundstück 2 mit leichtem Presssitz eingedrückt werden kann, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn zwischen dem Dichtring 23 und der umlaufenden, entgegen der Durchströmrichtung vorstehenden Ringwand 24 ein Luftspalt 25 verbleibt.The jet regulator 3 with its jet regulator housing can be inserted into an outlet mouthpiece 2 which can be mounted on the water outlet of a sanitary outlet unit. The jet regulator is inserted into the outlet mouthpiece 2 from the upstream end side until an annular shoulder 21 arranged on the outer periphery of the jet regulator housing rests on an annular shoulder 22 arranged on the inner periphery of the sleeve-shaped outlet mouthpiece 2. The jet regulator 3 is axially sealed by means of a sealing ring 23 which can be clamped between the jet regulator 3 and the outlet-side end edge of the outlet fitting. Due to the desired compact design of the jet regulator 3 and because of the installation space restricted on the inflow side of the jet regulator 3 by the attachment or filter sieve 19 and the flow rate regulator unit 20, only a very small space is available for the sealing ring required for axial sealing. Since this sealing ring 23 for a secure hold in the outlet mouthpiece 2 and possibly also due to a required standard projection a very slim height to thickness ratio, there is a risk that the sealing ring 23 collapses when the outlet mouthpiece 2 is tightened, as a result of which the jet regulator 3 is securely and tightly attached to the sanitary water outlet Outlet fitting is hindered. The jet regulator 3 therefore has an annular wall 24 encompassed by the sealing ring 23 on its inlet-side end face, the sealing ring 23 projecting over the ring wall 24 on the one hand and over the inlet-side end edge of the outlet mouthpiece 2 on the other hand. The annular wall 24 supports the sealing ring 23 designed here as a flat seal in the case of axial compression against lateral buckling. The sealing ring 23 lies with a press fit on the inner circumference of the outlet mouthpiece 2, so that the sealing ring 23 secures both itself and the jet regulator 3 if, for example, the sanitary insert unit has to be mounted upside down on the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting. So that the sealing ring 23 can, however, be pressed into the outlet mouthpiece 2 with a slight press fit, it is advantageous if an air gap 25 remains between the sealing ring 23 and the circumferential ring wall 24 projecting against the flow direction.

Das Strahlreglergehäuse des Strahlreglers 3 ist hier zweiteilig ausgebildet und weist den hier auch als zulaufseitiges Gehäuseteil dienenden Diffusorring 33 und ein auslaufseitiges Gehäuseteil 26 auf. Dabei ist der als Diffusor ausgestaltete Strahlzerleger 6 von der zulaufseitigen Gehäusestirnseite aus in den auch als zulaufseitiges Gehäuseteil dienenden Diffusorring 33 einsetzbar. An der zulaufseitigen Stirnfläche des hier als Diffusor ausgebildeten Strahlzerlegers 6 ist die Ringwand 24 einstückig angeformt. Wie aus den Längsschnitten gemäß den Figuren 1 und 2 deutlich wird, umgreift die Ringwand 24 ein Reglergehäuse 27 einer Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20. Im Reglergehäuse 27 der Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 ist zumindest ein Ringkanal vorgesehen, in dem sich ein ringförmiger Drosselkörper 29 befindet, der zwischen sich und einer, an einer innenliegenden und/oder außenliegenden Kanalwandung angeordneten Regelprofilierung einen Steuerspalt begrenzt, der sich durch den unter dem Druck des anströmenden Wassers verformenden Drosselkörper in seinem lichten Spaltquerschnitt veränderbar ist.The jet regulator housing of the jet regulator 3 is formed here in two parts and has the diffuser ring 33, which also serves here as the inlet-side housing part, and an outlet-side housing part 26. The jet splitter 6, which is designed as a diffuser, can be inserted from the inlet end of the housing into the diffuser ring 33 which also serves as the inlet side of the housing. The annular wall 24 is integrally formed on the inlet-side end face of the jet splitter 6, which is designed here as a diffuser. As from the longitudinal sections according to the Figures 1 and 2 becomes clear, encompasses the ring wall 24, a controller housing 27 of a flow rate controller unit 20. In the controller housing 27 of the flow rate controller unit 20, at least one ring channel is provided, in which there is an annular throttle body 29, one between itself and a control profile arranged on an internal and / or external channel wall Limits the control gap, which can be changed in its clear gap cross section by the throttle body deforming under the pressure of the inflowing water.

Wie aus einem Vergleich der Figuren 1 und 2 einerseits und 3 bis 6 andererseits deutlich wird, kann in den von der Ringwand 24 umgrenzten Freiraum auch ein Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb 19 sowie gegebenenfalls zusätzlich oder stattdessen auch die Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 eingelegt werden. Um das Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb 19 beziehungsweise die Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 sicher in dem von der Ringwand 24 umgrenzten Freiraum zu halten, ist am Innenumfang der Ringwand 24 eine Rastnocke 30 vorgesehen. Diese Rastnocke 30 hintergreift einen am Außenumfang des Reglergehäuses 27 oder am Außenumfang des Vorsatz- oder Filtersiebes 19 angeordneten Ringflansch 31, 32. Da die innenumfangsseitig an der Ringwand 24 vorgesehene Rastnocke 30 mit Abstand von dem freien Stirnrand der Ringwand 24 angeordnet ist, bildet der zwischen der Rastnocke 30 und dem freien Stirnrand der Ringwand 24 verbleibende Wandungsabschnitt der Ringwand 24 eine Zentrierhilfe, die das Verrasten des Reglergehäuses 27 beziehungsweise des Vorsatz- oder Filtersiebes 19 an der Rastnocke 30 und auch das Verrasten des Vorsatzsiebes 19 an dem bereits mit der Ringwand 24 verrasteten Reglergehäuse 27 wesentlich erleichtert. Die axiale Beabstandung der Rastnocke 30 von dem zuströmseitigen Stirnrand der Ringwand 24 ermöglicht eine axiale Erstreckung, in der das Vorsatz- oder Filtersieb 19 beziehungsweise die aus Vorsatzsieb 19 und Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 bestehende Kombination bei der Montage auferlegt werden kann, wobei sich das aufgelegte Bauteil aufgrund der Ausgestaltung der Rastnocke 30 und der Abrundung an der umlaufenden abströmseitigen Unterkante des Vorsatz- oder Filtersiebes 19 beziehungsweise an der in gleicher Weise abgerundeten umlaufenden Unterkante des Reglergehäuses 27 selbst vorzentriert. Dadurch wird der Montageprozess des Vorsatz- oder Filtersiebes 19 beziehungsweise der aus dem Vorsatzsieb 19 und der Durchflussmengenregler-Einheit 20 bestehenden Kombination auf dem als Diffusor ausgebildeten Strahlzerleger 6 wesentlich erleichtert, wobei nur noch eine axiale Montagekraft zum Verrasten aufgebracht werden muss, ohne dass gleichzeitig für eine Zentrierung und Ausrichtung der miteinander zu verrastenden Bauteile Sorge zu tragen ist.As from a comparison of the Figures 1 and 2 on the one hand and 3 to 6 on the other hand, an attachment or filter sieve 19 and optionally additionally or instead also the flow rate regulator unit 20 can also be inserted into the space delimited by the annular wall 24. A locking cam 30 is provided on the inner circumference of the ring wall 24 in order to securely hold the front screen or filter sieve 19 or the flow rate regulator unit 20 in the free space delimited by the ring wall 24. This latching cam 30 engages behind an annular flange 31, 32 arranged on the outer circumference of the controller housing 27 or on the outer circumference of the attachment or filter screen 19. Since the latching cam 30 provided on the inner circumferential side of the annular wall 24 is spaced from the free end edge of the annular wall 24, it forms between the locking cam 30 and the free end edge of the annular wall 24 remaining wall section of the annular wall 24 a centering aid, which the locking of the controller housing 27 or the front or filter screen 19 on the locking cam 30 and also the locking of the front screen 19 on the already locked to the ring wall 24 Controller housing 27 much easier. The axial spacing of the locking cam 30 from the upstream end edge of the annular wall 24 enables an axial extension in which the front or filter screen 19 or the front screen 19 and Flow rate controller unit 20 existing combination can be imposed during assembly, the applied component due to the design of the locking cam 30 and the rounding on the peripheral downstream lower edge of the front or filter screen 19 or on the same rounded peripheral lower edge of the controller housing 27 self-centered. As a result, the assembly process of the front screen or filter screen 19 or the combination consisting of the front screen 19 and the flow rate regulator unit 20 on the jet splitter 6, which is designed as a diffuser, is made considerably easier, with only an axial mounting force having to be applied without locking at the same time without centering and alignment of the components to be locked together must be ensured.

An der auslaufseitigen Gehäusestirnfläche des Strahlreglergehäuses ist ein Strömungsgleichrichter zu einer strömungsführenden Gitter- oder Netzstruktur angeformt.A flow straightener is formed on the outlet-side housing end face of the jet regulator housing to form a flow-conducting grid or network structure.
