Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary outlet device with a housing which forms a jet shaper receptacle into which an adapter is removably inserted, which defines a flow path, the adapter in the jet shaper receptacle between a fixing position in which the adapter is locked to the housing and a Forms flow resistance in the flow path, and a releasing position in which the adapter is removable from a jet shaper receptacle, is rotatably arranged.
  • the invention further relates to a sanitary fitting with a sanitary outlet device of the type mentioned at the beginning.
  • adapters are used which produce the desired spray pattern.
  • a sanitary outlet device of the type mentioned is previously known, which can be mounted on the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting, in order to shape the water exiting there into a homogeneous and non-spraying water jet.
  • the known outlet device has a sleeve-shaped housing which has an internal thread on its inner circumference of the housing on the inflow side, with which internal thread the housing can be screwed onto an external thread on the water outlet of the outlet fitting.
  • the housing of the known outlet device forms a beam shaper receptacle into which an adapter is removably inserted.
  • the adapter which is flushed by the exiting water and thus defines a flow path, can be moved in the jet shaper receptacle of the housing between a fixing position in which the adapter is locked to the housing and forms a flow resistance in the flow path, and a releasing position in which the adapter can be removed from the beam former holder.
  • the adapter has spring arms with external locking projections which, in the fixing position, engage in a circumferential locking groove on the inner circumference of the sleeve of the housing.
  • a locking element is provided which is axially displaceably guided in the adapter.
  • the locking element prevents unintentional deflection of the spring arms in the fixing position
  • the locking element when it has been moved in the axial direction into the releasing position, releases an annular gap which enables the spring arms to spring in and thus the locking projections to disengage from the locking groove. If the locking projections on the spring arms are locked in the locking groove in the fixing position, the adapter can be rotated as required in the water outlet.
  • the previously known discharge device is comparatively complex to manufacture and design. Since the locking element is movably guided in the annular gap between the adapter and its spring arms, the locking element can only be operated at the downstream end of the adapter, which makes handling of the known outlet device considerably more difficult.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of creating a sanitary outlet device of the type mentioned at the outset, in which the adapter can be replaced easily and in a particularly simple manner without tools.
  • the features of claim 1 are provided to achieve the stated object in a sanitary outlet device.
  • the advantage here is that the adapter can be firmly attached to the beam shaper receptacle in the fixing position, so that the flow obstacle or flow resistance that the adapter forms in the flow path during operation does not result in the adapter automatically moving away from its fixing position . Since the adapter is locked in the fixing position on an outside of the housing with the housing, locking means and counter-locking means are ver in the interior and in particular in the beam shaper receptacle indispensable.
  • the housing can thus be provided with a smooth inner contour that forms as few contamination zones as possible.
  • the adapter can be transferred into a releasing position by a simple rotation, in which the adapter can be removed.
  • the housing of the outlet device according to the invention has a non-round contour on an outside at least in one section.
  • the advantage here is that the locking connection can be released by turning the adapter.
  • the non-round contour displaces a locking means on the adapter from engagement with a counter-locking means on the housing.
  • a simple way is described to release the already mentioned latching by rotating the adapter. This can be done, for example, by a rotation of less than 270 ° or less than 180 °, for example less than 100 °, in particular approximately or exactly 90 °.
  • With a comparatively high holding force of the latching a low release force is therefore required in order to transfer the adapter into the releasing position and to pull it off from the housing there. There is no need for a tool.
  • the adapter can be inserted into the jet shaper receptacle in a direction of insertion into the jet shaper receptacle that is oriented against a flow direction of the flow path.
  • the adapter can thus be easily inserted into the beam former holder from below.
  • the existing opening as a water outlet can thus be used to insert the adapter.
  • the adapter can be moved by a flow in the flow path also push them out of the beam former holder. Additional measures for removing the adapter in its releasing position from the beam shaper receptacle can thus be dispensed with. Rather, the adapter can be removed in a simple manner by opening the fitting to which it is attached, as soon as it has been transferred into the releasing position.
  • the adapter engages around the housing.
  • the adapter can thus be grasped on all sides outside the housing.
  • the locking means and counter-locking means, with which the adapter can be locked on the housing can be formed on the outside of the housing and thus outside the flow path. Potential contamination points in the flow path can thus be avoided.
  • the adapter is arranged in the jet shaper receptacle so that it can rotate about an axis of rotation aligned along the flow path and that the fixing position and the releasing position are arranged at the same height with respect to the insertion direction of the adapter.
  • the adapter is from the fixed position can be transferred into the releasing position with the aid of an actuating movement, which is typically easily accessible in the case of valve spouts because it can be carried out obliquely from above on a valve spout that is open at the bottom.
  • the fixing position and the releasing position are arranged at the same level with respect to an insertion direction of the adapter, for example the already mentioned insertion direction or the insertion direction for the already mentioned insertion of the adapter, threads or the like are on the adapter or the Housing dispensable.
  • complex machining of a housing made of a metallic material can thus be dispensed with. The transfer between the positions can thus be carried out by a movement that takes place in an axial plane.
  • the adapter consists of plastic or a plastic combination and / or the housing consists of a metallic material.
  • a housing made of metallic material offers the advantage that it can be cleaned easily and thoroughly.
  • An adapter made of plastic offers the advantage that complex shapes can also be implemented with comparatively little effort and / or that an adapter can be produced with comparatively low material costs. This makes it easier to use the adapter of a sanitary outlet device according to the invention as a disposable product. Designing all components from a uniform material facilitates the recovery of the material.
  • the non-round contour has a flattening that is limited to a circumferential section and / or a contour / run-on bevel running in a circumferential direction.
  • a locking means which is connected to the housing in a locking manner outside the circumferential section, can be removed from the housing in the area of the flattened area.
  • a latching means on the contour run-on slope can be displaced or displaceable from engagement with a counter-latching means which is formed according to the invention on the housing.
  • the adapter is non-circular on the outside, in particular with at least one protruding handling projection.
  • the advantage here is that the adapter can easily be gripped for performing the rotary movement already described. It is particularly favorable if the adapter is equipped with at least one protruding handling projection, preferably with two diametrically opposite, each protruding handling projections.
  • a simple means is provided to carry out the desired rotary movement in the releasing position.
  • the orientation of, for example, a latching means in the interior of the adapter can also be easily displayed or simply felt to the user. This makes it easier to correctly attach the adapter to the beam shaper holder, so that it can be turned directly into to get to the fixed position.
  • the locking means is a locking projection and the counter-locking means is a locking receptacle and that the counter-locking means is designed as a groove section preferably limited to a circumferential section.
  • the advantage here is that a locking projection and a locking receptacle represent known connecting means in order to establish a locking connection.
  • the locking means is formed on the adapter and the counter-locking means is formed on the housing.
  • the counter-locking means is designed as a groove section.
  • locking projections or locking lugs can simply lock with the counter locking means. It is particularly favorable if the groove section is limited to a circumferential section. It can thus be achieved that the latching can be canceled by, for example, moving the latching means out of this peripheral section, in particular by rotating the adapter relative to the housing.
  • the locking means is formed on an inner surface of the adapter.
  • the advantage here is that the locking means is covered in the operating position on the valve. It is particularly favorable if the latching means is formed on an inner surface of the adapter, which preferably runs circumferentially without interruption, if the inner surface has a Defined inner diameter and / or an inner circumference, which is matched to an outer diameter and / or an outer circumference of the housing, and if an attachment aid is formed upstream of the counter-locking means in the insertion direction.
  • the adapter thus fully encompasses the housing in the area of the latching means and thus provides sufficient resistance against too easy displacement of the latching means radially outwards. This improves the strength of the latching connection between the adapter and the housing, so that it can be ensured that the adapter is not unintentionally pushed out of the beam former receptacle or cannot be pushed out.
  • the inner surface defines an inner diameter which is matched to an outer diameter of the housing, that is to say, for example, matches this up to a predetermined fit.
  • a play-free arrangement of the adapter on the housing in the fixed position can be achieved, which results in a particularly firm latching.
  • the inner surface defines an inner circumference which is matched to an outer circumference of the housing, that is to say, for example, corresponds to this up to a predetermined fit. This represents an alternative possibility of achieving a virtually or completely play-free abutment of the adapter on the housing, and can be combined with the preceding embodiment in order to achieve a particularly firm hold.
  • an attachment aid is formed upstream of the counter-locking means in the insertion direction.
  • the attachment aid can be designed, for example, as an indentation if the locking means forms an elevation, for example a locking projection. A collapse of the elevation into the indentation, that is, a correct assembly position, can thus be easily felt by turning the adapter.
  • the attachment aid can also be designed as an elevation if this fits the inner contour of the adapter and in particular the latching means, for example a latching groove.
  • the latching projection has a latching projection run-on bevel that is oriented in the direction of insertion and preferably attaches to the inner surface. This can make it easier for the adapter to latch onto the housing.

  • the counter-locking means can thus be formed outside of the flow path, so that unnecessary points of contamination can be avoided.

If the adapter has a sealing lip resting on the beam shaper receptacle, an intermediate space between the adapter and the beam shaper receptacle can easily be sealed. It is particularly advantageous if the sealing lip is formed on an end of the adapter on the inflow side. The advantage here is that no gap areas between the adapter and the jet former receptacle are accessible from the flow path. Alternatively or additionally it can be provided that the sealing lip is elastic.
  • the elastic sealing lip can be rubber-free in order to prevent colonization of the Avoid or at least reduce sealing lip with bacteria.

  • the jet shaper 26 is again composed of a dismantling part 45 and an outlet part 47.
  • the outlet part 47 can be connected in one piece to the adapter 4, or the outlet part 47 is held by the adapter 4.
  • a circumferential shoulder 46 is formed, which receive the sealing ring 40 between them and hold it axially on both sides.
  • the sealing ring 40 with the adapter 4 can thus be inserted and removed again.
  • radially protruding projections are formed which hold the sealing ring 40 axially in sections.
  • a smaller or larger number of handling projections 16 for example three or five or more than five.
  • Attachment aids 41 which here have the shape of indentations 42, are positioned upstream of the counter-locking means 15 in the insertion direction 7.
  • the latching means 13 are dimensioned in such a way that they are slightly bent open by the cylindrical section of the housing 2. A user can thus easily sense when the locking means 13 come into the circumferential area of the indentations 42 when the adapter 4 is rotated. This thus represents an attachment aid 41, since the latching means 13 are now aligned with respect to the counter-latching means 15 (which may already be covered in this position by the adapter 4) and can easily be attached to them.
  • a beam shaper receptacle 3 on a housing 2, in which an adapter 4 is removably inserted and rotatably arranged about its axis of rotation 6, the adapter 4 between a fixing position in which the adapter 4 counter removal is secured, and a releasing position in which the adapter 4 is removable can be rotated.
