Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sanitary fitting for mixing cold water and hot water to form mixed water with a desired mixed water temperature according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such sanitary fittings are regularly used in connection with wash basins, sinks, showers and/or bathtubs.
  • Sanitary fittings with a water guide arranged in a fitting housing are known from the prior art, the water guide at least partially guiding the mixed water in the sanitary fitting, i.e. specifying the flow path of the mixed water.
  • sanitary fittings are known from the prior art with which, in addition to the mixed water, other fluids, such as carbonated water, hot water and/or water with flavors, can be tapped. These fluids are routed separately from the mixed water in the sanitary fittings. In order to ensure the separation of the mixed water from the other fluids in the sanitary fittings, a large number of components are required for guiding the mixed water and the other fluids, which increase the assembly effort of the sanitary fittings.
  • WO 2011/076293 A1 a water fitting with at least two lower inlet channels and an upper outlet is known, in which each inlet channel is connected to the outlet via a controllable shut-off device.
  • US 2003/102256 A1 is a combination tap with an external water purifier that is able to prevent the formation of unwanted bacteria.
  • Another water fitting with an additional fluid guide is from the WO2008/125865 became known, which is complicated in structure.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to at least partially solve the problems described with reference to the prior art and to provide a sanitary fitting for two separately guided fluids, which is characterized by a small number of components.
  • a sanitary fitting according to the features of the independent patent claim contributes to solving this problem. Further advantageous configurations of the sanitary fitting are specified in the dependently formulated patent claims.
  • the sanitary fitting for mixing cold water and hot water to form mixed water with a desired mixed water temperature has a water guide arranged at least partially in a fitting housing and an outlet, the water guide having a first channel for the mixed water and a second channel for a secondary fluid and wherein the second channel is at least partially designed as a connection nipple made in one piece with the water guide.
  • the sanitary fitting here is used to mix cold water with a cold water temperature and hot water with a hot water temperature to form mixed water with a desired mixed water temperature and to tap or dispense the mixed water and at least one further secondary fluid.
  • the cold water can have a cold water temperature of 0 - 40 °C (Celsius) and/or the hot water can have a hot water temperature of 40 - 90 °C.
  • the secondary fluid can in particular be carbonated water, hot water, for example with a hot water temperature of 90 - 100 ° C, or water with a flavoring.
  • Such sanitary fittings are regularly used in connection with wash basins, sinks, showers and/or bathtubs.
  • the sanitary fitting has a fitting housing, which can consist at least partially of die-casting, in particular zinc die-casting or brass die-casting. Furthermore, the sanitary fitting has an outlet, which is in particular at least partially tubular and is attached to the fitting housing, in particular in a pivotable manner. The outlet leads from the fitting housing to an outlet opening of the sanitary fitting, from which the mixed water and the secondary fluid can emerge from the sanitary fitting when tapped.
  • the sanitary fitting can in turn be attached to a support, such as, via the fitting housing for example, a table top, a wall, a washbasin, a sink or a bathtub.
  • a water guide is at least partially arranged in the fitting housing and/or in the outlet.
  • the water guide can at least partially consist of plastic and can be produced, for example, by a plastic injection molding process.
  • the water supply can also be at least partially made of metal, in particular brass.
  • the water guide can in particular be inserted at least partially into the fitting housing, for example through an opening in the fitting housing, and/or projects at least partially into the outlet of the sanitary fitting.
  • the water guide can also serve in the manner of a guide nipple for the spout, onto which the spout can be attached.
  • the water guide also serves in particular as a guide for the mixed water and the secondary fluid.
  • the water supply has a first channel for the mixed water and a second channel for the secondary fluid.
  • the second channel is at least partially designed as a connection nipple, which is made in one piece with the water supply.
  • connection nipple is not a separate component, but is made in one piece with the water supply.
  • the connection nipple is also at least partially tubular and serves to connect a hose by means of which the secondary fluid can be directed through the outlet to an outlet opening of the outlet.
  • the water supply therefore has an integrated connection nipple, which advantageously reduces the number of components of the sanitary fitting.
  • the first channel opens into a first hose or the second channel into a second hose, wherein the mixed water can be conducted by means of the first hose or the secondary fluid by means of the second hose through an outlet of the sanitary fitting to an outlet opening.
  • the first hose and/or second hose are in particular (flexible) plastic hoses through which the mixed water and/or the secondary fluid can be conducted to the outlet opening of the outlet without the mixed water and/or the secondary fluid comes into contact with the fitting housing and/or the outlet. This allows the fitting housing and/or the spout to be made from a material that would normally not be suitable for drinking water or food.
  • a second hose can be attached to the connection nipple.
  • the second hose can either be plugged onto the connection nipple or screwed on.
  • connection nipple protrudes from the water supply at an end of the water supply facing the outlet of the sanitary fitting.
  • first channel and the second channel are at least partially coaxial. This means in particular that the first channel at least partially surrounds the second channel and/or the second channel runs at least partially through the first channel.
  • the sanitary fitting has a cartridge receptacle for holding a mixing cartridge, wherein the mixed water can be fed from the mixing cartridge via the cartridge receptacle to the first channel of the water supply.
  • the cartridge holder can in particular be a plastic or metal component into which the mixing cartridge can be inserted and/or the mixing cartridge can be fixed in the fitting housing.
  • the mixing cartridge can in particular be a mixing valve or a thermostatic cartridge.
  • the supply line can in particular be a (flexible) plastic or metal line.
  • the secondary fluid can be supplied to the water supply orthogonally to a longitudinal direction of the water supply.
  • the Fig. 1 shows schematically and in partial cross-section a sanitary fitting 1 for mixing cold water and hot water to form mixed water with a desired mixed water temperature.
  • the sanitary fitting 1 has a fitting housing 2, to which an outlet 3 is pivotally attached.
  • the outlet 3 leads to an outlet opening of the sanitary fitting 1, not shown here.
  • a water guide 4 and a cartridge holder 11 are arranged in the fitting housing 2 and the outlet 3.
  • a mixing cartridge 12 can be fixed in the fitting housing 2.
  • an actuator 15 for example a lever
  • a user of the sanitary fitting 1 can set a mixed water temperature and/or a withdrawal quantity of the mixed water from the outlet opening of the sanitary fitting 1, not shown here.
  • the mixed water mixed by the mixing cartridge 12 can be fed to a first channel 5 of the water supply 4 by means of the cartridge receptacle 11 via a first flow path 16 of the mixed water.
  • the first channel 5 for the mixed water opens into a first hose 8, by means of which the mixed water can be directed to the outlet opening.
  • a secondary fluid can be supplied to a second channel 6 of the water supply 4 by means of a supply line 13, so that the secondary fluid forms a second flow path 17 in the sanitary fitting 1.
  • the supply line 13 opens into the water guide 4 orthogonally to a longitudinal direction 14 of the water guide 4.
  • the second channel 6 is designed as a connecting nipple 7 at its end 10 projecting into the outlet 3 and is designed in one piece or in two parts with the water guide 4.
  • the connecting nipple 7 also protrudes from the water guide 4 at the end 10 of the water guide 4 facing the outlet 3 of the sanitary fitting 1.
  • a second hose 9 can be attached to the connection nipple 7, so that the secondary fluid can be fed to the outlet opening via the second hose 9.
  • the outlet 3 is also attached to the water guide 4, so that the water guide 4 serves as a guide nipple 18 of the outlet 3.
