Abstract

La présente invention concerne un régulateur de jet (2) qui comprend un boîtier pourvu d'au moins deux parties (5, 6) pouvant tourner l'une par rapport à l'autre, dont une première partie amont (5) peut être montée solidaire en rotation à la sortie d'eau d'une robinetterie de sortie sanitaire et dont une seconde partie aval (6) est conformée en poignée au moins au niveau de sa périphérie extérieure aval ou est reliée à une poignée, la première partie (5) comportant un dispositif de dispersion de jet (7) pourvu d'une pluralité d'orifices de dispersion (8), des canaux de jets (9) espacés les uns des autres étant prévus sur la périphérie intérieure du boîtier de la seconde partie (6), et les jets individuels qui proviennent des orifices de dispersion (8) étant guidés, dans une première position en rotation des parties (5, 6), par les canaux de jet (9) et mis en forme pour donner une image de jet de sortie s'étendant annulairement et étant déviés, dans une seconde position en rotation, à l'intérieur du boîtier du régulateur de jet (2) vers un orifice de sortie central (10) du boîtier du régulateur de jet. Le régulateur de jet de l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il est prévu un dispositif d'encliquetage en rotation comportant au moins une came d'encliquetage (13) qui est formée sur une paroi de canal orientée vers l'intérieure du boîtier du régulateur de jet et qui coopère avec un profil d'encliquetage et en ce qu'une structure en grille ou en réseau, s'étendant au-dessus de l'orifice de sortie centrale (10), est formée d'une seule pièce en aval sur la seconde partie (6).
