Description

TECHNISCHES GEBIETTECHNICAL AREA

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Waschtisch nach Anspruch 1.The present invention relates to a washbasin according to claim 1.

STAND DER TECHNIKSTATE OF THE ART

Aus der DE 10 2008 044 637 ist ein Waschtisch bekannt geworden. Eine bewegliche Blende überdeckt den Ablauf. Die Blende liegt dabei an Seitenkanten des Waschtisches auf. Die Lage der Blende nach der DE 10 2008 044 637 ist im Wesentlichen von Waschtisch selbst abhängig. Typischerweise können keramische Waschtische nur mit einem grossen Toleranzfeld hergestellt werden, was zum Problem führt, dass die Lage der Blende nicht vorbestimmt werden kann.From the DE 10 2008 044 637 a vanity has become known. A movable panel covers the drain. The panel rests on the side edges of the washbasin. The position of the aperture according to the DE 10 2008 044 637 is essentially dependent on the vanity itself. Typically, ceramic washbasins can only be manufactured with a large tolerance range, which leads to the problem that the position of the screen cannot be predetermined.

Das Dokument ES2597759 offentbart eine bodengleiche Dusche mit einer einen Hohlraum aufweisenden Wand oder Vorwand, einem Wannenkörper und eine Ablaufeinrichtung, die im Bereich der Wand oder Vorwand angeordnet ist und die an den Wannenkörper angeschlossen ist.The document ES2597759 discloses a floor-level shower with a wall or wall having a cavity, a tub body and a drain device which is arranged in the area of the wall or wall and which is connected to the tub body.

DARSTELLUNG DER ERFINDUNGPRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik ist es eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Waschtisch mit einer Blende anzugeben, welcher die Nachteile des Standes der Technik überwindet. Insbesondere soll ein Waschtisch mit einer Blende angegeben werden, mit welchem eine Blende, unter der Massgabe einer einfachen Lagerung, passgenau zu den Seitenwänden eines Waschtisches ausrichtbar ist.Proceeding from this prior art, it is an object of the invention to specify a washstand with a screen that overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art. In particular, a washbasin with a screen is to be specified, with which a screen can be aligned with a precise fit to the side walls of a washbasin, subject to simple storage.

Diese Aufgabe löst der Gegenstand nach Anspruch 1. Demgemäss umfasst ein Waschtisch, eine Abflusskammer mit einer Abflussöffnung, über welche Abflussöffnung Wasser in die Abflusskammer einfliessen kann, ein in die Abflusskammer eingesetztes Blendenelement, welches die Abflussöffnung mindestens teilweise verschliesst, und ein in die Abflusskammer fest eingesetztes Lagerelement. Das Blendenelement ist derart am Lagerelement gelagert, dass das Blendenelement relativ zum Lagerelement und zur Abflussöffnung einstellbar ist, derart, Blendenelement relativ zum Lagerelement und zur Abflussöffnung einstellbar ist, derart, dass die Lage des Blendenelementes zur Abflussöffnung und/oder zu den Wandbereichen des Sanitärartikels, die die Abflussöffnung umgeben, ausrichtbar ist.This object is achieved by the object of claim 1. Accordingly, a washbasin comprises a drain chamber with a drain opening through which drain opening water can flow into the drain chamber, a screen element inserted into the drain chamber, which at least partially closes the drain opening, and a fixed element in the drain chamber used bearing element. The screen element is mounted on the bearing element in such a way that the screen element can be adjusted relative to the bearing element and to the outflow opening in such a way Screen element is adjustable relative to the bearing element and the drain opening, such that the position of the screen element to the drain opening and / or to the wall areas of the sanitary article surrounding the drain opening, can be aligned.

Durch die Lagerung am Lagerelement und die Abstützung an mindestens einer Fläche der Abflusskammer ergeht der Vorteil, dass das Blendenelement unter der Massgabe einer guten und im Wesentlichen nicht verschiebbaren Lagerung fest, aber dennoch ausrichtbar in der Abflussöffnung gelagert ist.The bearing on the bearing element and the support on at least one surface of the outflow chamber results in the advantage that the screen element is mounted in the outflow opening in a firm but still alignable manner under the proviso of good and essentially non-displaceable mounting.

Das Lagerelement ist fest, das heisst nicht bewegbar, in der Abflusskammer angeordnet. Dabei kann das Lagerelement als in die Abflusskammer einzusetzendes Teil ausgebildet sein.The bearing element is fixed, ie not movable, arranged in the discharge chamber. The bearing element can be designed as a part to be inserted into the discharge chamber.

Erfindungsgemäß ist das Blendenelement über mindestens eine erste einstellbare Lagerstelle am Lagerelement und eine zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle am Lagerelement sowie an der Abflusskammer gelagert. Unter einer einstellbaren Lagerstelle wird eine Lagerstelle verstanden, bei welcher das Blendenelement relativ zum Lagerelement verschiebbar ist.According to the invention, the diaphragm element is mounted on at least one first adjustable bearing point on the bearing element and a second adjustable bearing point on the bearing element and on the outflow chamber. An adjustable bearing point is understood to mean a bearing point in which the panel element can be displaced relative to the bearing element.

Die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle ist derart ausgebildet, dass eine Verschwenkung des Blendenelementes in der Abflussöffnung um eine erste Achse ermöglicht wird. Die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle ist derart konfiguriert, dass eine Verschwenkung des Blendenelementes um eine zweite Achse, die zur ersten Achse im Wesentlichen rechtwinklig verläuft, erlaubt wird.The first adjustable bearing point is designed in such a way that the screen element can be pivoted about a first axis in the outflow opening. The second adjustable bearing is configured to allow the panel member to pivot about a second axis substantially perpendicular to the first axis.

Hierdurch kann das Blendenelement bezüglich seiner Frontseite zu den Seitenwandbereichen des Waschtisches, die sich der Abflussöffnung nach oben und zur Seite hin anschliessen, ausgerichtet werden. Die Frontseite liegt nach der Ausrichtung vorzugsweise fluchtend oder parallel zu den besagten Wandbereichen.As a result, the screen element can be aligned with respect to its front side to the side wall areas of the washbasin, which adjoin the drain opening at the top and to the side. After the alignment, the front face is preferably aligned or parallel to said wall areas.

Vorzugsweise liegt die erste Achse im Wesentlichen in einer in der Vertikalen verlaufenden Ebene und im Wesentlichen parallel zu dem Wandbereich, welcher sich der Abflussöffnung in Einbaulage nach oben hin anschliesst. Die zweite Achse liegt im Wesentlichen in einer in der Horizontalen verlaufenden Ebene. Die Ausdrucksweise im Wesentlichen ist im vorliegenden Zusammenhang dahingehend zu verstehen, dass eine Winkelabweichung zu den besagten Ebenen und/oder eine Winkelabweichung in der Parallelität von bis zu 20°, insbesondere von bis zu 10°, umfasst sind.The first axis preferably lies essentially in a plane running in the vertical and essentially parallel to the wall area, which adjoins the outflow opening at the top in the installed position. The second axis essentially lies in a horizontal plane. The way of expression in Essentially, in the present context, it is to be understood that an angular deviation from the said planes and/or an angular deviation in the parallelism of up to 20°, in particular of up to 10°, is included.

Vorzugsweise ist das Blendenelement selbst oder Teile des Blendenelementes über eine dritte einstellbare Lagerstelle in eine Längsrichtung verschiebbar, wobei die Längsrichtung im Wesentlichen parallel und vorzugsweise beabstandet zur zweiten Achse verläuft. Hierdurch kann das Blendenelement in der Abflussöffnung in die entsprechende Richtung mittig platziert werden. Die dritte Lagerstelle kann Teil des Blendenelements sein oder zwischen Lagerstelle und Blendenelement angeordnet sein.The screen element itself or parts of the screen element can preferably be displaced in a longitudinal direction via a third adjustable bearing point, the longitudinal direction running essentially parallel and preferably at a distance from the second axis. As a result, the screen element can be placed centrally in the drain opening in the corresponding direction. The third bearing point can be part of the panel element or can be arranged between the bearing point and the panel element.

Vorzugsweise verfügt mindestens eine der einstellbaren Lagerstellen, insbesondere die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle und/oder die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle, über ferromagnetische Mittel, welche das Blendenelement zum Lagerelement anzieht.At least one of the adjustable bearing points, in particular the first adjustable bearing point and/or the second adjustable bearing point, preferably has ferromagnetic means which attract the screen element to the bearing element.

Besonders bevorzugt steht das Blendenelement mit der ersten und der zweiten Lagerstelle mit dem Lagerelement in Verbindung, wobei die Verbindung über die besagten ferromagnetischen Mittel bereitgestellt wird.The screen element is particularly preferably connected to the bearing element with the first and the second bearing point, the connection being provided via the said ferromagnetic means.

Die ferromagnetische Anbindung hat den Vorteil, dass das Blendenelement für einen Reinigungsvorgang sehr einfach vom Lagerelement getrennt und wieder montiert werden kann.The ferromagnetic connection has the advantage that the screen element can be very easily separated from the bearing element and reassembled for a cleaning process.

Vorzugsweise weist die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle am Blendenelement zwei beabstandet zueinander liegende Lagerflächen und am Lagerelement zwei beabstandet zueinander liegende Lagerflächen auf. Die eine der Lagerflächen des Blendenelements liegt an der einen der Lagerflächen des Lagerelementes und die andere der Lagerflächen des Blendenelements liegt an der anderen der Lagerflächen des Lagerelementes an. Pro Lagerflächenpaar ist mindestens eine der Lagerflächen einstellbar ausgebildet, derart, dass das Blendenelement um die zwischen den Lagerflächenpaaren verlaufende erste Achse verschwenkbar einstellbar ist.Preferably, the first adjustable bearing point on the panel element has two bearing surfaces that are spaced apart from one another and on the bearing element has two bearing surfaces that are spaced apart from one another. One of the bearing surfaces of the screen element abuts against one of the bearing surfaces of the bearing element and the other of the bearing surfaces of the screen element abuts on the other of the bearing surfaces of the bearing element. At least one of the bearing surfaces for each pair of bearing surfaces is designed to be adjustable, such that the screen element can be pivoted about the first axis running between the pairs of bearing surfaces.

Unter einer einstellbaren Lagerfläche wird verstanden, dass sich die Lagerfläche bezüglich des Lagerelementes verschieben kann, so dass sich die Lage der Lagerfläche in der Abflusskammer verändern kann.Under an adjustable bearing surface is understood that the bearing surface with respect of the bearing element can move, so that the position of the bearing surface can change in the discharge chamber.

Vorzugsweise sind die einstellbaren Lagerflächen im Innenraum der Abflusskammer bezüglich der Lagerflächen jeweils parallel zueinander und unabhängig voneinander bewegbar.Preferably, the adjustable bearing surfaces in the interior of the outflow chamber can be moved parallel to one another and independently of one another with respect to the bearing surfaces.

Vorzugsweise sind die einstellbaren Lagerflächen am Lagerelement angeordnet. Jede der Lagerflächen ist vorzugsweise Teil eines Gewindeelementes. Das Gewindeelement weist einen Gewindeabschnitt auf, welcher in ein entsprechendes Gegengewinde am Lagerelement eingreift, wobei die Lage des Gewindeelementes und somit die Lage der Lagerfläche durch das Einschrauben des Gewindeabschnittes in das Gegengewinde erreicht wird.The adjustable bearing surfaces are preferably arranged on the bearing element. Each of the bearing surfaces is preferably part of a threaded element. The threaded element has a threaded section which engages in a corresponding mating thread on the bearing element, the position of the threaded element and thus the position of the bearing surface being achieved by screwing the threaded section into the mating thread.

Vorzugsweise schliesst sich der Lagerfläche in Richtung des Gewindeabschnittes eine um die Mittelachse des Gewindeabschnitts umlaufende Fläche an, von welcher Fläche in regelmässigen Abständen Nocken abstehen, wobei in einen Zwischenraum zwischen zwei benachbarten Nocken eine am Lagerelement angeformte Rastnase einragt. Die Anordnung kann auch umgekehrt sein.In the direction of the threaded section, the bearing surface is preferably adjoined by a surface running around the central axis of the threaded section, from which surface cams protrude at regular intervals, a latching lug formed on the bearing element protruding into an intermediate space between two adjacent cams. The arrangement can also be reversed.

Erfindungsgemäß umfasst die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle auf Seiten des Blendenelementes zwei beabstandet zueinander liegende obere Lagerflächen sowie mindestens eine gegenüber den oberen Lagerflächen liegende untere Lagerfläche und auf Seiten des Lagerelements eine Lagerfläche am Lagerelement und auf Seiten des Waschtisches eine Innenfläche an der Abflusskammer, wobei die oberen Lagerflächen an der einen Lagerfläche am Lagerelement und die untere Lagerfläche an der Innenfläche anliegt und wobei mindestens eine der Lagerflächen einstellbar ausgebildet sind.According to the invention, the second adjustable bearing point comprises two spaced-apart upper bearing surfaces on the panel element side and at least one lower bearing surface opposite the upper bearing surfaces and on the bearing element side a bearing surface on the bearing element and on the washbasin side an inner surface on the discharge chamber, with the upper bearing surfaces one bearing surface abuts the bearing element and the lower bearing surface abuts the inner surface, and at least one of the bearing surfaces is adjustable.

Unter einer einstellbaren Lagerfläche wird verstanden, dass sich die Lagerfläche bezüglich des Lagerelementes verschieben kann, so dass sich die Lage der Lagerfläche in der Abflusskammer verändern kann.An adjustable bearing surface is understood to mean that the bearing surface can be displaced with respect to the bearing element, so that the position of the bearing surface in the outflow chamber can change.

Durch die Veränderung der Lage der Lagerflächen wird vorzugsweise eine Kippbewegung des Blendenelementes um die zweite Achse erreicht.Changing the position of the bearing surfaces preferably results in a tilting movement of the aperture element about the second axis.

Die Innenfläche ist dabei vorzugsweise die Fläche, welche am tiefsten in der Abflusskammer liegt, so dass das abfliessende Wasser durch den Kamm hindurch fliesst.The lower bearing surface is preferably formed by the free end of a comb. The comb rests with its free ends on the inner surface of the discharge chamber. The inner surface is preferably the surface which is deepest in the outflow chamber, so that the outflowing water flows through the ridge.

Vorzugsweise sind die einstellbaren Lagerflächen der zweiten Lagerstelle Teil eines drehfest in einer Führung gelagerten Stössels, welcher Stössel mit einem Antriebselement verschiebbar ist. Der Stössel und das Antriebselement stehen vorzugsweise über ein Gewinde miteinander in Verbindung.The adjustable bearing surfaces of the second bearing point are preferably part of a ram which is mounted in a guide in a rotationally fixed manner and which ram can be displaced with a drive element. The plunger and the drive element are preferably connected to one another via a thread.

Vorzugsweise verläuft die obere Lagerfläche auf Seiten des Lagerelementes im Wesentlichen rechtwinklig zur Lagerfläche der ersten Lagerstelle. Die Innenfläche ist vorzugsweise auf Seiten der Abflusskammer gekrümmt und/oder winklig geneigt zur oberen Lagerfläche ausgebildet. Hierdurch kann das abkippen weiter begünstigt werden.The upper bearing surface on the side of the bearing element preferably runs essentially at right angles to the bearing surface of the first bearing point. The inner surface is preferably curved on the discharge chamber side and/or inclined at an angle to the upper bearing surface. This can further promote tipping.

Vorzugsweise weist das Blendenelement ein Blendenteil und ein Supportteil auf, wobei das Blendenteil und das Supportteil die dritte Lagerstelle bereitstellen, derart, dass das Blendenteil zum Supportteil in Richtung der Längsachse verschiebbar angeordnet ist.The screen element preferably has a screen part and a support part, the screen part and the support part providing the third bearing point in such a way that the screen part is arranged such that it can be displaced relative to the support part in the direction of the longitudinal axis.

BESCHREIBUNG BEVORZUGTER AUSFÜHRUNGSFORMENDESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

In den Figuren wird ein Sanitärartikel in der Form eines Waschtischs 1 gemäss einer Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung gezeigt.In the figures, a sanitary article in the form of a washbasin 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

Die Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen eine teilweise geschnittene Ansicht des Waschtisches 1. Der Waschtisch 1 umfasst eine Abflusskammer 2 mit einer Abflussöffnung 3. Die Abflussöffnung 3 durchdringt einen Wandbereich 28 des Waschtisches. Über die Abflussöffnung 3 kann Wasser in die Abflusskammer 2 einfliessen. Weiter umfasst der Waschtisch 1 ein in die Abflusskammer 2 eingesetztes Blendenelement 4, welches die Abflussöffnung 3 mindestens teilweise verschliesst. Zwischen den Randbereichen der Abflussöffnung 3 und des Blendenelementes 4 ist ein Spalt 36 vorhanden, durch welchen das Wasser hindurchfliessen kann. Das Blendenelement 4 ist entfernbar in der Abflusskammer 2 gelagert. In der Figur 1 befindet sich das Blendenelement 4 im eingesetzten Zustand. In der Figur 2 befindet sich das Blendenelement 4 im getrennten Zustand.the figures 1 and 2 show a partially sectioned view of the vanity 1. The Washbasin 1 comprises a drain chamber 2 with a drain opening 3. The drain opening 3 penetrates a wall area 28 of the washbasin. Water can flow into the discharge chamber 2 via the discharge opening 3 . The washbasin 1 also includes a screen element 4 which is inserted into the outflow chamber 2 and which at least partially closes the outflow opening 3 . There is a gap 36 between the edge regions of the drain opening 3 and the screen element 4 through which the water can flow. The screen element 4 is mounted in the discharge chamber 2 in a removable manner. In the figure 1 is the panel element 4 in the inserted state. In the figure 2 is the panel element 4 in the separated state.

Weiter umfasst der Sanitärartikel 1 ein in die Abflusskammer 2 fest eingesetztes Lagerelement 5, an welchem das Blendenelement 4 gelagert ist. Das Blendenelement 4 ist aber nicht nur am Lagerelement 5 gelagert, sondern steht an mindestens einer Fläche 6 der Abflusskammer 2 an. Das Blendenelement 5 ist demnach am Lagerelement 5 und an der Fläche 6 der Abflusskammer gelagert.The sanitary article 1 further comprises a bearing element 5 which is firmly inserted into the discharge chamber 2 and on which the screen element 4 is mounted. However, the diaphragm element 4 is not only mounted on the bearing element 5, but also rests against at least one surface 6 of the outflow chamber 2. The screen element 5 is therefore mounted on the bearing element 5 and on the surface 6 of the outflow chamber.

Das Blendenelement 4 ist dabei derart am Lagerelement 5 und der Fläche 6 gelagert, dass das Blendenelement 4 relativ zum Lagerelement 5 und relativ zur Abflussöffnung 3 einstellbar ist. Das heisst, die Lage des Blendenelements 4 lässt sich bezüglich der Abflussöffnung 3 einstellen. Die Einstellung ist dabei derart, dass die Lage des Blendenelementes zur Abflussöffnung 3 und/oder zu den Wandbereichen 28 des Sanitärartikel 1 ausrichtbar ist. Als Wandbereiche 28 werden die Wandbereiche des Waschtisches 1 verstanden, welche die Abflussöffnung 3 von der Betrachtungsrichtung von vorne her umgeben.The screen element 4 is mounted on the bearing element 5 and the surface 6 in such a way that the screen element 4 can be adjusted relative to the bearing element 5 and relative to the outflow opening 3 . This means that the position of the screen element 4 can be adjusted in relation to the outflow opening 3 . The setting is such that the position of the screen element can be aligned with the drain opening 3 and/or with the wall areas 28 of the sanitary article 1 . The wall areas 28 are understood to be the wall areas of the washbasin 1 which surround the outflow opening 3 when viewed from the front.

Das Lagerelement 5 ist in der gezeigten Ausführungsform Teil eines Verschlusselementes 29, welches die Abflusskammer 2 nach hinten hin verschliesst. Das Verschlusselement 29 wird dabei in der Abflusskammer 2 mit einem Flanschabschnitt 30, der mit einer Dichtung 31 umschlossen wird, gelagert. Das Verschlusselement 29 bildet dabei einen Teil der Abflusskammer 2. Das Lagerelement 5 steht in integraler Verbindung mit dem Verschlusselement 29.In the embodiment shown, the bearing element 5 is part of a closure element 29 which closes the outflow chamber 2 to the rear. The closure element 29 is mounted in the outflow chamber 2 with a flange section 30 which is surrounded by a seal 31 . The closure element 29 forms part of the outflow chamber 2. The bearing element 5 is integrally connected to the closure element 29.

Das Verschlusselement 29 ist vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff, während der Waschtisch 1 vorzugsweise aus Keramik gefertigt ist.The closure element 29 is preferably made of plastic, while the washbasin 1 is preferably made of ceramic.

Das Blendenelement 4 ist über eine erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 7 am Lagerelement 5 gelagert. Weiter ist das Blendenelement 4 über eine zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle 8 am Lagerelement 5 sowie an der Abflusskammer 2 gelagert. Unter einer einstellbaren Lagerstelle wird eine Lagerstelle verstanden, welche derart ausgebildet bzw. konfiguriert ist, dass die Lage des Blendenelements 4 bezüglich des Lagerelements 5 verschoben werden kann.The screen element 4 is mounted on the bearing element 5 via a first adjustable bearing point 7 . The diaphragm element 4 is also mounted on the bearing element 5 and on the outflow chamber 2 via a second adjustable bearing point 8 . An adjustable bearing point is understood to mean a bearing point which is designed or configured in such a way that the position of the screen element 4 can be shifted with respect to the bearing element 5 .

Die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 7 ist derart konfiguriert, dass eine Verschwenkung des Blendenelements 4 in der Abflussöffnung 3 um eine erste Achse A1 erlaubt wird. Das heisst, bei Einstellung der ersten einstellbaren Lagerstelle 7 wird das Blendenelement 4 um die erste Achse A1 verschwenkt. Die erste Achse A1 liegt im Wesentlichen in einer in der Vertikalen verlaufenden Ebene und verläuft im Wesentlichen parallel zu dem Wandbereich 28a, welcher sich der Abflussöffnung 3 in Einbaulage gesehen nach oben hin anschliesst.The first adjustable bearing point 7 is configured in such a way that the screen element 4 can be pivoted in the outflow opening 3 about a first axis A1. This means that when the first adjustable bearing point 7 is set, the screen element 4 is pivoted about the first axis A1. The first axis A1 lies essentially in a vertical plane and runs essentially parallel to the wall area 28a, which adjoins the outflow opening 3 at the top when viewed in the installed position.

Die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle 8 ist derart konfiguriert, dass eine Verschwenkung des Blendenelementes 4 um eine zweite Achse A2, die zur ersten Achse A1 im Wesentlichen rechtwinklig verläuft, erlaubt wird. Die zweite Achse A2 liegt im Wesentlichen in der Horizontalen und das Blendenelement 4 kann um diese Achse entsprechend verschwenkt werden. Die Bewegung vom Blendenelement 4 resultiert dabei in eine Art Kippbewegung.The second adjustable bearing point 8 is configured in such a way that the screen element 4 can be pivoted about a second axis A2, which runs essentially at right angles to the first axis A1. The second axis A2 lies essentially in the horizontal and the screen element 4 can be correspondingly pivoted about this axis. The movement of the screen element 4 results in a kind of tilting movement.

Weiter ist das Blendenelement 4, in der gezeigten Ausführungsform Teile des Blendenelements 4, über eine dritte einstellbare Lagerstelle 9 in eine Längsrichtung L verschiebbar. Die dritte einstellbare Lagerstelle 9 ist hier Teil des Blendenelementes 4. Die Längsrichtung L ist im Wesentlichen parallel und vorzugsweise beabstandet zur zweiten Achse A2. In der gezeigten Ausführungsform ist das Blendenelement 4 zweiteilig ausgebildet und umfasst ein Blendenteil 26 und ein Supportteil 27. Das Blendenteil 26 und das Supportteil 27 stehen über eine Längsführung miteinander in Verbindung. In der gezeigten Ausführungsform ist eine Schwalbenschwanzführung 32 vorgesehen. Das Supportteil 27 umfasst Teile der ersten einstellbaren Lagerstelle 7 und Teile der zweiten einstellbaren Lagerstelle 8 und steht somit mit dem Lagerelement 5 in Verbindung. In der Figur 5 wird weiter gezeigt, dass das Lagerelement 5 und das Blendenelement 4 weiter über zwei seitliche Anschläge 38 miteinander in Kontakt stehen. Über die seitlichen Anschläge 38 wird das Blendenelement grob im Aufnahmeraum platziert. Die Feinjustage kann dann über die dritte einstellbare Lagerstelle 9 erfolgen.The screen element 4 , parts of the screen element 4 in the embodiment shown, can also be displaced in a longitudinal direction L via a third adjustable bearing point 9 . The third adjustable bearing point 9 is part of the panel element 4 here. The longitudinal direction L is essentially parallel and preferably spaced apart from the second axis A2. In the embodiment shown, the screen element 4 is formed in two parts and comprises a screen part 26 and a support part 27. The screen part 26 and the support part 27 are connected to one another via a longitudinal guide. In the embodiment shown, a dovetail guide 32 is provided. The support part 27 includes parts of the first adjustable bearing point 7 and parts of the second adjustable bearing point 8 and is thus connected to the bearing element 5 . In the figure 5 it is further shown that the bearing element 5 and the screen element 4 are further in contact with one another via two lateral stops 38 . The screen element is roughly placed in the receiving space via the lateral stops 38 . The fine adjustment can then be made via the third adjustable bearing point 9.

In der gezeigten Ausführungsform umfasst die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 7 und die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle 8 ferromagnetische Mittel 33. Über diese ferromagnetischen Mittel 33 wird das Blendenelement 4 zum Lagerelement 5 angezogen. die ferromagnetischen Mittel 33 sorgen für eine gute Halterung des Blendenelementes 4 zum Lagerelement 5. Dies unter der Massgabe, dass das Blendenelement 4 für Reinigungszwecke einfach vom Lagerlement 5 getrennt werden kann.In the embodiment shown, the first adjustable bearing point 7 and the second adjustable bearing point 8 comprise ferromagnetic means 33. The diaphragm element 4 is attracted to the bearing element 5 via these ferromagnetic means 33. the ferromagnetic means 33 ensure that the panel element 4 is held securely in relation to the bearing element 5. This is with the proviso that the panel element 4 can be easily separated from the bearing element 5 for cleaning purposes.

Anhand der Figuren 1 bis 5 wird nun die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 7 genauer erläutert. Die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 7 umfasst am Blendenelement 4 zwei beabstandet zueinander liegende Lagerflächen 10. Weiter umfasst die erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 7 am Lagerelement 5 ebenfalls zwei beabstandet zueinander liegende Lagerflächen 11. Die blendenseitigen Lagerflächen 11 stehen jeweils mit den lagerelementseitigen Lagerflächen 10 in Kontakt bzw. liegen daran an. Dieses Anliegen der entsprechenden Lagerflächen 10, 11 aneinander wird in der Figur 5 entsprechend gezeigt. Die Lagerflächen 10 des Lagerelementes 5 sind einstellbar ausgebildet. In der gezeigten Ausführungsform lassen sich die Lagerflächen 10 im Innenraum der Abflusskammer 2 bewegen. Dies wird in der Figur 4 gezeigt. Die eine der Lagerflächen 10 liegt dabei nahe am Lagerelement 5, während die andere der Lagerflächen 10 in grösserem Abstand zum Lagerelement 5 liegt. Durch dieses Einstellen von den beiden Lagerflächen 10 kann das Blendenelement 4 um die entsprechende Achse A1 verschwenkt werden. Dies wird in der Figur 5 verdeutlicht. Wenn nun eine der Lagerflächen 11 sich bewegt und die andere der Lagerflächen 10 an Ort und Stelle verharrt, wird es zu einer Verschwenkbewegung des Blendenelementes 4 um die erste Achse A1, welche in der Figur 5 senkrecht zur Blattrichtung verläuft, kommen.Based on Figures 1 to 5 the first adjustable bearing point 7 will now be explained in more detail. The first adjustable bearing point 7 has two spaced bearing surfaces 10 on the panel element 4. The first adjustable bearing point 7 on the bearing element 5 also has two spaced bearing surfaces 11. The bearing surfaces 11 on the panel side are each in contact with the bearing surfaces 10 on the bearing element side on it. This concern of the corresponding bearing surfaces 10, 11 together is in the figure 5 shown accordingly. The bearing surfaces 10 of the bearing element 5 are adjustable. In the embodiment shown, the bearing surfaces 10 can be moved in the interior of the outflow chamber 2 . This will be in the figure 4 shown. One of the bearing surfaces 10 is close to the bearing element 5, while the other of the bearing surfaces 10 is at a greater distance from the bearing element 5. By setting the two bearing surfaces 10 in this way, the screen element 4 can be pivoted about the corresponding axis A1. This will be in the figure 5 clarified. Now, if one of the bearing surfaces 11 moves and the other of the bearing surfaces 10 remains in place, there will be a pivoting movement of the screen element 4 about the first axis A1, which is in FIG figure 5 perpendicular to the sheet direction.

Die Lagerflächen 10 sind in der gezeigten Ausführungsform Teil eines Gewindeelementes 12. Das Gewindeelement 12 umfasst weiterhin einen Gewindeabschnitt 13, der in ein entsprechendes Gegengewinde 14 am Lagerelement 5 eingreift. Somit kann das Gewindeelement 12 entsprechend im Gegengewinde 14 verdreht werden, wodurch die Lagerfläche 10 die entsprechende Bewegung im Innenraum der Abflusskammer 2 macht. Die Lage der Lagerfläche 10 wird somit durch das Ein- bzw. Ausschrauben des Gewindeabschnittes 13 in das Gegengewinde 14 erreicht. In der gezeigten Ausführungsform umfasst die Lagerfläche 11 zwei Ausnehmungen 34, in welche ein Werkzeug 35 zur Betätigung des Gewindeelementes 12 eingreifen kann. Durch Verdrehung des Werkzeuges 35 kann das Gewindeelement 12 entsprechend verdreht werden.In the embodiment shown, the bearing surfaces 10 are part of a threaded element 12 . Thus, the threaded member 12 can be rotated accordingly in the mating thread 14, whereby the Bearing surface 10 makes the corresponding movement in the interior of the discharge chamber 2. The position of the bearing surface 10 is thus achieved by screwing or unscrewing the threaded section 13 into the mating thread 14 . In the embodiment shown, the bearing surface 11 comprises two recesses 34 into which a tool 35 for actuating the threaded element 12 can engage. By rotating the tool 35, the threaded element 12 can be rotated accordingly.

Weiter umfasst das Gewindeelement 12 auf seiner Aussenseite eine um die Mittelachse des Gewindeabschnittes 13 umlaufende Fläche. Diese Fläche schliesst sich hier der Lagerfläche 10 in Richtung des Gewindeabschnittes 13 an. Von der Fläche stehen in regelmässigen Abständen angeordnete Nocken 15 ab, wobei in einen Zwischenraum zwischen zwei benachbarte Nocken 15 eine am Lagerelement 5 angeformte Rastnase 16 einragt. Die Rastnase 16 wird in der Figur 4 entsprechend gezeigt. Die Anordnung der Rastnase 16 hat den Vorteil, dass das Gewindeelement 12 bezüglich des Lagerelements 5 entsprechend gesichert ist.Furthermore, the threaded element 12 comprises on its outside a surface running around the central axis of the threaded section 13 . Here, this surface joins the bearing surface 10 in the direction of the threaded section 13 . Cams 15 arranged at regular intervals protrude from the surface, with a latching lug 16 formed on the bearing element 5 protruding into an intermediate space between two adjacent cams 15 . The detent 16 is in the figure 4 shown accordingly. The arrangement of the locking lug 16 has the advantage that the threaded element 12 is correspondingly secured with respect to the bearing element 5 .

Anhand der Figuren 1, 2, 6, 7 und 8 wird nun die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle 8 genauer erläutert. Die zweite einstellbare Lagerstelle 8 umfasst auf Seiten des Blendenelementes 4 zwei beabstandet zueinander liegende obere Lagerflächen 17 sowie mindestens eine, hier mehrere, gegenüber den oberen Lagerflächen 17 liegende untere Lagerflächen 18. Auf Seiten des Lagerelementes 5 bzw. des Waschtisches 1 ist pro obere Lagerfläche 17 ebenfalls je eine Lagerfläche 19 angeordnet. Die entsprechende Lagerfläche auf Seiten des Waschtisches kann als Innenfläche 20 der Abflusskammer 2 bezeichnet werden. Die obere Lagerfläche 17 liegt an der einen Lagerfläche 19 am Lagerelement 5 und die untere Lagerfläche 18 liegt an der Innenfläche 20 an. Mindestens eine der Lagerflächen 17, 20 ist entsprechend einstellbar ausgebildet. In der gezeigten Ausführungsform sind die oberen Lagerflächen 17 bewegbar ausgebildet. Die untere Lagerfläche 18 ist fest am Blendenelement 4 angeordnet.Based on figures 1 , 2 , 6, 7 and 8th the second adjustable bearing point 8 will now be explained in more detail. On the side of the panel element 4, the second adjustable bearing point 8 comprises two spaced-apart upper bearing surfaces 17 and at least one lower bearing surface 18, here several, lying opposite the upper bearing surfaces 17. On the side of the bearing element 5 or the washstand 1, there is one upper bearing surface 17 per upper bearing surface also depending on a bearing surface 19 arranged. The corresponding bearing surface on the washstand side can be referred to as the inner surface 20 of the discharge chamber 2 . The upper bearing surface 17 is in contact with one bearing surface 19 on the bearing element 5 and the lower bearing surface 18 is in contact with the inner surface 20 . At least one of the bearing surfaces 17, 20 is designed to be adjustable accordingly. In the embodiment shown, the upper bearing surfaces 17 are designed to be movable. The lower bearing surface 18 is fixed to the screen element 4 .

Die obere Lagerfläche 17 ist Teil eines Stössels 24, welcher drehfest in einer Führung 23 am Blendenelement 4 angeordnet ist. Der Stössel 24 wird über ein Antriebselement 25 entsprechend angetrieben. Das Antriebselement 25 weist einen Gewindeabschnitt auf, welcher in einen entsprechenden Gewindeabschnitt am Stössel 24 eingreift. Diese Konfiguration wird in der Figur 8 gezeigt. Bei einer Betätigung des Antriebselementes 25 wird der Stössel 24 in der Führung 23 hin und her bewegt.The upper bearing surface 17 is part of a plunger 24 which is arranged in a guide 23 on the panel element 4 in a rotationally fixed manner. The ram 24 is driven accordingly via a drive element 25 . The drive element 25 has a threaded section, which engages in a corresponding threaded section on the plunger 24. This configuration is in the figure 8 shown. When the drive element 25 is actuated, the plunger 24 is moved back and forth in the guide 23 .

In der Figur 6 wird eine Mittelposition des Stössels 24 und somit der oberen Lagerfläche 17 gezeigt. In der Figur 7 wird eine erste Extremlage gezeigt. Durch das Verschieben des Stössels 24 wird die entsprechende Lagerfläche 17 bezüglich des Blendenelementes ebenfalls verschoben. Durch die Verschiebung der oberen Lagerfläche 17 und die Zusammenarbeit mit letzter mit der Lagerfläche 19 am Lagerelement 11 sowie durch das Aufliegen des Blendenelementes 4 an der Innenfläche 20 kann eine Einstellung des Blendenelementes 4 erlaubt werden.In the figure 6 a middle position of the ram 24 and thus the upper bearing surface 17 is shown. In the figure 7 a first extreme position is shown. By moving the plunger 24, the corresponding bearing surface 17 is also moved with respect to the screen element. The shifting of the upper bearing surface 17 and the cooperation with the latter with the bearing surface 19 on the bearing element 11 and the fact that the screen element 4 rests on the inner surface 20 can allow the screen element 4 to be adjusted.

In der Figur 7 wird eine weitere Extremlage gezeigt. Hier kann gut erkannt werden, dass das Blendenelement 4 weiter verkippt wurde und aus der Abflussöffnung 3 hinausragt. In der Figur 8 wird eine weitere Konfiguration gezeigt, wobei hier ein Verkippen in die Gegenrichtung erreicht wurde.In the figure 7 another extreme situation is shown. Here it can be clearly seen that the screen element 4 has been tilted further and protrudes from the outflow opening 3 . In the figure 8 another configuration is shown, whereby a tilting in the opposite direction was achieved here.

In den Schnittdarstellungen der Figuren 6 bis 8 wird gezeigt, dass die obere Lagerfläche 17 auf Seiten des Lagerelementes 5 im Wesentlichen rechtwinklig zur Lagerfläche 10 der ersten Lagerstelle verläuft. Die Innenfläche 20 auf Seiten der Abflusskammer 2 ist in der gezeigten Ausführungsform leicht gekrümmt ausgebildet. Durch die entsprechende Geometrie und durch die Bewegung der oberen Lagerfläche 17 kann die entsprechende Verschwenkung erreicht werden.In the sectional views of Figures 6 to 8 it is shown that the upper bearing surface 17 on the side of the bearing element 5 runs essentially at right angles to the bearing surface 10 of the first bearing point. The inner surface 20 on the side of the outflow chamber 2 is slightly curved in the embodiment shown. The appropriate pivoting can be achieved through the appropriate geometry and through the movement of the upper bearing surface 17 .

Von den Figuren kann auch erkannt werden, dass das Anliegen der Lagerflächen 10, 11 der ersten Lagerstelle 7 nicht immer unbedingt ein flächiges Anliegen ist. In der Position gemäss der Figur 6 spricht man von einem flächigen Anliegen, während bei den Positionen in den Figuren 7 und 8 ein punkt- oder linienförmiges Anliegen der beiden Lagerflächen 10, 11 aneinander gezeigt wird. Dieses Anliegen wird insbesondere dadurch ermöglicht, weil in der ersten Lagerstelle 7 die entsprechenden ferromagnetischen Mittel 33 angeordnet sind. So ist in der gezeigten Ausführungsform im Gewindeelement 13 ein Magnet 37 vorhanden. Dieses Magnet 37 zieht dann den aus Metall ausgebildeten Stössel 24 der zweiten einstellbaren Lagerstelle entsprechend an.It can also be seen from the figures that the contact of the bearing surfaces 10, 11 of the first bearing point 7 is not always necessarily a planar contact. In the position according to figure 6 one speaks of a flat concern, while the positions in the figures 7 and 8th a punctiform or linear abutment of the two bearing surfaces 10, 11 is shown against one another. This concern is made possible in particular because the corresponding ferromagnetic means 33 are arranged in the first bearing point 7 . A magnet 37 is present in the threaded element 13 in the embodiment shown. This magnet 37 then attracts the metal plunger 24 of the second adjustable bearing point accordingly.

Die Figuren 9 und 10 zeigen das Blendenelement 4 im Detail. Von diesen Detailansichten kann gut erkannt werden, dass die unteren Lagerfläche n17 Teil eines Kamms 22 sind. Dabei werden die unteren Lagerflächen 18 durch das freie Ende 21 des Kamms 22 bereitgestellt. Der Kamm 22 liegt auf der entsprechenden Innenfläche 20 an. Hierdurch wird verhindert, dass Haare und/oder Gegenstände durch das Blendenelement 4 in die Abflusskammer 2 gelangen. Der Spalt 36 wird durch den Kamm 22 unterbrochen.the Figures 9 and 10 show the screen element 4 in detail. From these detailed views it can be clearly seen that the lower bearing surfaces n17 are part of a ridge 22 . In this case, the lower bearing surfaces 18 are provided by the free end 21 of the comb 22 . The comb 22 rests on the corresponding inner surface 20 . This prevents hair and/or objects from entering the outflow chamber 2 through the screen element 4 . The gap 36 is interrupted by the ridge 22 .

Weiter wird in den Figuren 9 und 10 die Zweiteiligkeit des Blendenelementes gezeigt. Hier stehen das Blendenteil 26 und das Supportteil 27 über die Schwalbenschwanzführung 32 miteinander in Verbindung. Auf Seiten des Supportelementes ist die Schwalbenschwanzführung 32 abschnittsweise unterbrochen bzw. durch Stegteile gebildet.Next will be in the Figures 9 and 10 shown the two-piece of the panel element. Here the panel part 26 and the support part 27 are connected to one another via the dovetail guide 32 . On the side of the support element, the dovetail guide 32 is interrupted in sections or formed by web parts.

In der Figur 11 wird sodann eine Schnittdarstellung gezeigt. Von dieser Schnittdarstellung kann die Lagerung des Stössels 24 in der Führung 23 und das Zusammenwirken mit dem Antriebselement 25 gut erkannt werden. Bei einer Verdrehung des Antriebselementes 25 wird der Stössel 24 aufgrund seiner drehfesten Lagerung in der Führung 23 nach oben bzw. nach unten geschoben. BEZUGSZEICHENLISTE 1 Sanitärartikel 24 Stössel 2 Abflusskammer 25 Antriebselement 3 Abflussöffnung 26 Blendenteil 4 Blendenelement 27 Supportteil 5 Lagerelement 28, 28a Wandbereiche 6 Fläche 29 Verschlusselement 7 erste einstellbare Lagerstelle 30 Flanschabschnitt 8 zweite einstellbare 31 Dichtung Lagerstelle 32 Schwalbenschwanzführung 9 dritte Lagerstelle 33 ferromagnetische Mittel 10 Lagerfläche 34 Ausnehmungen 11 Lagerflächen 35 Werkzeug 12 Gewindeelement 36 Spalt 13 Gewindeabschnitt 37 Magnet 14 Gegengewinde 38 Anschlag 15 Nocken A1 erste Achse 16 Rastnase A2 zweite Achse 17 obere Lagerflächen L Längsrichtung 18 untere Lagerflächen 19 Lagerfläche 20 Innenfläche 21 freies Ende 22 Kamm 23 Führung In the figure 11 a sectional view is then shown. The mounting of the plunger 24 in the guide 23 and the interaction with the drive element 25 can be clearly seen from this sectional view. When the drive element 25 rotates, the plunger 24 is pushed up or down due to its non-rotatable mounting in the guide 23 .
