- the invention thus relates to a sanitary built-in part which is designed in particular as a jet regulator, preferably as a ventilated jet regulator.
- a jet regulator preferably as a ventilated jet regulator.
- Such a diffuser 4 has a diffuser chamber 5, the dimensions of which are at least partially delimited by an impact surface 6.
- the impact surface 6 is designed to deflect water flowing into the diffuser chamber 5 in a lateral direction in the position of use and/or during operation.
- the diffuser space 5 itself has a plurality of outlet openings 7 through which the water jet divided on the impact surface 6 emerges from the diffuser space 5 in the form of individual jets.
- the figures 2 , 4 and 6 show a possible embodiment of a sanitary fitting according to the invention, which is denoted as a whole as 1.
- the sanitary built-in part 1 has the advantage that even low flow rates of water can be sufficiently aerated with it, so that an attractive aerated outlet jet pattern is generated.
- the diffuser space 5 has, as has already been described above for the previously known built-in part, an impact surface 6 which at least partially delimits the diffuser space 5 .
- the sanitary insert 1 is characterized in that the impact surface 6 is followed by a run-off bevel 8 which accelerates water that hits the impact surface 6 and runs off it in the direction of the outlet openings 7 and allows it to run off.
- the drainage slope 8 can thus serve to accelerate the water running off in order to transport it in the direction of the outlet openings 7 .
- the outlet openings 7 define a lateral outlet direction, in particular a lateral outlet direction which runs parallel or almost parallel to the impact surface 6 . This can be achieved in that the outlet openings 7 break through a peripheral side wall 9 of the diffuser 4 .
- the outlet openings 7 each have a width b, 10. Adjacent outlet openings 7, in particular all adjacent outlet openings 7, can be arranged at equal distances a, 11. In the case of the built-in part 1 according to the invention, it has proven to be advantageous with regard to the production of an optimal outlet jet pattern at low flow rates if a ratio b/a (b divided by a) is less than 0.41.
- the diffuser 4 has at least one inlet opening 12, with a water jet entering through the at least one inlet opening 12 in the position of use impinging on the impact surface 6 and being divided.
- the at least one inlet opening 12 is therefore set up in such a way that an entry direction of the water jet is defined in such a way that it impinges on the impact surface 6 , in particular impinges exclusively on the impact surface 6 .
- the sanitary built-in part 1 can have a plurality of inlet openings 12 which, in particular, are all aligned with the impact surface 6 and/or are arranged above the impact surface 6 .
- the impact surface 6 is oriented in relation to the inflowing water jet in such a way that a high flow resistance arises. This can be achieved in that the impact surface 6, which can be formed as an impact plane, is aligned perpendicularly or almost perpendicularly with respect to an angle of incidence of the water jet flowing in in the position of use.
- the run-off bevel 8 is inclined downwards and/or from the inside outwards at an angle relative to the impact surface 6, in particular relative to a plane of the impact surface 6.
- This angle can be at least 5 degrees, in particular at least 10 degrees, in particular at least 15 degrees, in particular at least 20 degrees, in particular at least 25 degrees, preferably about 30 degrees.
- the diffuser space can be ring-shaped or disc-shaped.
- the outlet openings 7 are in the Figures 1-6 shown configurations at least partially formed as material recesses 13 running outwards.
- the material recesses 13 can therefore act like channels in order to reduce flow turbulence.
- the material recesses 13 can each have a minimum distance that is at least 2%, in particular at least 3%, in particular at least 4%, in particular at least 5%, in particular at least 6%, in particular at least 7%, in particular at least 8%, in particular at least 9%, in particular at least 10% of a diameter 14 of the diffuser chamber 5 corresponds.
- the diffuser space 5 is formed between the impact surface 6 and the flow-determining functional unit 2 , being delimited on the inflow side by the functional unit 2 and on the outflow side by the impact surface 6 .
- the flow-determining functional unit 2 has at least one flow limiter 15 and/or at least one throttle. In general it can be said that the functional unit changes or can change the flow rate and/or that there is a pressure difference between the sections before and after the functional unit.
- a flow limiter 15 within the meaning of the invention can refer to the fact that a pressure-independent setting, in particular automatic setting, of a flow rate takes place over a working range of the flow limiter 15 . This makes it possible to keep the flow rate as constant as possible set. In contrast, with the throttle, the flow rate changes depending on the prevailing pressure.
- the sanitary built-in part 1 has a housing 16, in which the diffuser 4 and/or the at least one flow-determining functional unit 2 are at least partially inserted.
- the housing 16 has a wall 17 which laterally delimits an in particular annular collecting chamber 18 which is downstream of the outlet openings 7 in the direction of flow 3 .
- the collecting chamber 18 can serve to aerate the water jet and can therefore also have aeration openings for sucking in air, in particular from the outside.
- the housing 16 thus influences the flow behavior of the water flowing through. Together with the diffuser 4, the housing 16 thus defines the flow direction 3 of the water through the built-in part 1 and/or contributes to jet formation and/or jet aeration. There is thus an interaction between the diffuser 4 and the housing 16 that determines the shape of the outlet jet, which is why the housing 16 can also be referred to as a diffuser ring 23 .
- dividing elements 19 On and/or at the edge of the impact surface 6 there are several dividing elements 19 arranged in particular on a circular path.
- the dividing elements 19 are positioned in front of the outlet openings in the direction of flow 3 . In the embodiment variant shown, they divide the edge and/or an outer edge 20 of the run-off slope 8 into sections.
- the divider elements 19 can be designed, for example, as ramps and/or wedges rising in the direction of the outlet openings, as in FIGS Figures 1-6 is shown.
- a step 22 is formed, which leads to a collection chamber 21 downstream of the run-off slope in the direction of flow 3 .
- the collection chamber 21 therefore represents part of the diffuser space 5.
- the height of the collection chamber 21 is higher than the rest of the diffuser space 5, particularly in the area of the impact surface 6.
- the Figures 1-6 also refer to a series of at least two variants 24, 25 of sanitary built-in parts 1.
- the variants 24 and 25 differ only in a diffuser type that is installed in them.
- the functional unit 2 and/or the housing 16, in particular the diffuser ring 23, of the two variants 24, 25 is of identical design.
- the at least two variants 24, 25 of the series have different diffusers 4, which differ in that the at least two types of diffusers 4 have outlet openings 7 with a different opening dimension.
- the first variant 24 is therefore assigned to a smaller flow class than the second variant 25 .
- a ratio of a width b of the respective outlet openings 7 to a respective distance a between two adjacent outlet openings 7 is smaller in the first variant 24 than in the second variant 25 .
- the ratio b/a of the first variant 24 is less than 0.41 and/or that the ratio b/a of the second variant 25 is 0.41 or greater than 0.41.
- the diffuser 4 of the second variant 25 has no run-off slope 8 . Rather, the impact surface 6 is extended here and forms a sharp, particularly right-angled edge. The water thus flows over the sharp tear-off edge and falls into the collection chamber 21.
- the invention thus relates in particular to a sanitary built-in part 1, with at least one flow-regulating functional unit 2 and a diffuser 4 arranged downstream of the flow-regulating functional unit 2 in the direction of flow 3, the diffuser 4 having a diffuser space 5, the diffuser space 5 being partially delimited by an impact surface 6 , which deflects water flowing into the diffuser chamber 5 in a radial direction towards a plurality of outlet openings 7, with a drainage slope 8 being arranged obliquely to the impact surface 6, which allows water that hits the impact surface 6 and runs off it to run off in the direction of the outlet openings 7 in the position of use.

Die Erfindung betrifft weiter eine Baureihe mit wenigstens zwei Varianten eines sanitären Einbauteils.The invention further relates to a series with at least two variants of a sanitary built-in part.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein sanitäres Einbauteil eingangs genannter Art mit verbesserten Gebrauchseigenschaften bereitzustellen.The object of the invention is to provide a built-in sanitary part of the type mentioned at the outset with improved performance characteristics.

Insbesondere wird erfindungsgemäß zur Lösung der Aufgabe ein sanitäres Einbauteil eingangs genannter Art vorgeschlagen, wobei an die Prallfläche eine Ablaufschräge anschließt, die auf die Prallfläche auftreffendes und davon ablaufendes Wasser in Gebrauchsstellung in Richtung der Austrittsöffnungen ablaufen lässt, wobei ferner ein äußerer Rand der Ablaufschräge durch eine Stufe ausgebildet ist.In particular, a sanitary built-in part of the type mentioned at the outset is proposed according to the invention to achieve the object, with a drainage slope adjoining the impact surface, which drains water that hits the impact surface and runs off it into Position of use can run in the direction of the outlet openings, wherein also an outer edge of the run-off slope is formed by a step.
Dies hat den Vorteil, dass das sanitäre Einbauteil auch bei relativ niedrigen Durchflussmengen (wie zum Beispiel von maximal oder genau 1 Gallone pro Minute (1 gpm = 6,309 × 10-5 m3/s) einsetzbar ist, um einen schön geformten und/oder belüfteten Wasserstrahl auszubilden.This has the advantage that the sanitary fitting can also be used with relatively low flow rates (such as a maximum or exactly 1 gallon per minute (1 gpm = 6.309 × 10 -5 m 3 /s), to form a beautifully shaped and/or aerated jet of water.
Bei derart geringen Durchflussmengen kann mit sanitären Einbauteilen vorbekannter Art keine ausreichende Belüftung des Wasserstrahls mehr erzeugt werden, so dass ein Strahlbild eines auslaufenden Wasserstrahls ungleichmäßig wirkt. Im Vergleich zu vorbekannten sanitären Einbauteilen der eingangs genannten Art kann zudem eine häufig als störend empfundene Geräuschentwicklung besser verhindert werden, da Turbulenzen innerhalb des Einbauteils, insbesondere innerhalb des Diffusorraums und/oder in Strömungsrichtung nach den Austrittsöffnungen, geringer sind als bei vorbekannten Einbauteilen.With such low flow rates, the water jet can no longer be adequately aerated with built-in sanitary parts of a previously known type, so that the jet pattern of an outflowing water jet has an uneven effect. In comparison to previously known sanitary built-in parts of the type mentioned at the outset, the development of noise, which is often perceived as annoying, can also be better prevented, since turbulence within the built-in part, in particular within the diffuser space and/or downstream of the outlet openings in the direction of flow, is lower than with previously known built-in parts.
Nachfolgend werden vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung beschrieben, die allein oder in Kombination mit den Merkmalen anderer Ausgestaltungen optional zusammen mit den Merkmalen nach Anspruch 1 kombiniert werden können.Advantageous configurations of the invention are described below, which can optionally be combined with the characteristics of

Um eine besonders gute Verteilung des Wasserstrahls erreichen zu können, kann die Prallfläche bezogen auf einen Einfallswinkel des in Gebrauchsstellung einströmenden Wasserstrahls senkrecht oder nahezu senkrecht ausgerichtet sein.In order to be able to achieve a particularly good distribution of the water jet, the impact surface can be aligned perpendicularly or almost perpendicularly with respect to an angle of incidence of the water jet flowing in in the position of use.

Besonders vorteilhaft kann es sein, wenn die Funktionseinheit wenigstens einen Mengenbegrenzer hat, so dass eine benötigte und/oder gewünschte Durchflussmenge innerhalb eines Arbeitsbereichs druckunabhängig bereitstellbar ist. Die Strömungsverhältnisse in dem Diffusorraum sind somit besser kontrollierbar.According to a further advantageous embodiment, it can be provided that the flow-determining functional unit has at least one flow limiter and/or at least one throttle. It is thus possible to introduce a predefined amount into the diffuser. It can be particularly advantageous if the functional unit has at least one flow limiter, so that a required and/or desired flow rate within a working area can be provided independently of the pressure. The flow conditions in the diffuser space can thus be better controlled.

Vorzugsweise kann das Gehäuse eine umlaufende, insbesondere geschlossene, Wandung aufweisen, die eine den Austrittsöffnungen in Strömungsrichtung nachgelagerte, insbesondere ringförmige, Auffangkammer seitlich begrenzt.

Um Verwirbelungen innerhalb des Diffusorraums besser verhindern zu können, kann gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung zwischen den Austrittsöffnungen und einem äußeren Rand der Ablaufschräge innerhalb des Diffusorraums eine Sammelkammer ausgebildet sein. Vorzugsweise kann eine Höhe des Diffusorraums im Bereich der Sammelkammer höher als eine Höhe des Diffusorraums im Bereich der Prallfläche sein.In order to be able to better prevent turbulence within the diffuser space, according to an advantageous development, a collection chamber can be formed between the outlet openings and an outer edge of the run-off slope within the diffuser space. A height of the diffuser space in the area of the collection chamber can preferably be higher than a height of the diffuser space in the area of the impact surface.

Somit fällt das abfließende Wasser an dieser Stelle von einer Abrisskannte, insbesondere einer stumpfen Abrisskante, der Ablaufschräge hinab, wodurch es eine Beschleunigung erfährt, bevor des durch die Austrittsöffnungen hindurchströmt.According to the invention it is provided that an outer edge of the drainage slope, for example the aforementioned outer edge of the drainage slope, by a step is trained. Thus, the outflowing water falls at this point a tear-off edge, in particular a blunt tear-off edge, down the run-off slope, as a result of which it experiences an acceleration before it flows through the outlet openings.
Zur Lösung der oben genannten Aufgabe wird zudem eine Baureihe für wenigstens zwei Varianten eines sanitären Einbauteils vorgeschlagen, wobei wenigstens eine der wenigstens zwei Varianten einem sanitären Einbauteil wie es hierin beschrieben und beansprucht ist, entspricht.To solve the above-mentioned problem, a series for at least two variants of a sanitary installation part is also proposed, with at least one of the at least two variants corresponding to a sanitary installation part as described and claimed herein.
Die Baureihe umfasst wenigstens eine Funktionseinheit, wenigstens ein Gehäuse und wenigstens zwei unterschiedliche Typen von Diffusoren. Das Gehäuse kann beispielsweise als ein Diffusorring ausgebildet sein. Die Baureihe ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die wenigstens zwei Varianten unterschiedliche Typen von Diffusoren aufweisen, dass die wenigstens zwei Typen von Diffusoren unterschiedlich ausgebildete durchflussbestimmende Austrittsöffnungen aufweisen. Insbesondere kann dabei ein erster Typ eine kleinere Durchflussklasse als ein zweiter Typ aufweisen. Wie bereits zuvor erläutert, kann es sich bei der ersten Variante um eine Durchflussklasse handeln, deren Durchflussmenge bei maximal 1 gpm (1 gpm = 6, 309 × 10-5 m3/s), insbesondere bei genau 1 gpm, oder bei weniger als 1 gpm liegt. Entsprechend weist die zweite Variante eine höhere Durchflussklasse mit einer Durchflussmenge von mehr als 1 gpm auf.The series includes at least one functional unit, at least one housing and at least two different types of diffusers. The housing can be designed as a diffuser ring, for example. The series is characterized in that the at least two variants have different types of diffusers, that the at least two types of diffusers have differently designed flow-determining outlet openings. In particular, a first type can have a smaller flow class than a second type. As already explained above, the first variant can be a flow rate class whose flow rate is at most 1 gpm (1 gpm=6.309×10 -5 m 3 /s), in particular exactly 1 gpm, or less than 1 gpm lies. Accordingly, the second variant has a higher flow class with a flow rate of more than 1 gpm.
Anders ausgedrückt, wird eine Baureihe für mit wenigstens zwei Varianten eines sanitären Einbauteils vorgeschlagen, wobei jede Variante wenigstens einer Funktionseinheit, wenigstens ein Gehäuse und/oder einen Diffusorring, und wenigstens einen Diffusor aufweisen, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die wenigstens zwei Varianten unterschiedliche Typen von Diffusoren aufweisen, dass die wenigstens zwei Typen von Diffusoren unterschiedlich ausgebildete durchflussbestimmende Austrittsöffnungen aufweisen, insbesondere wobei die erste Variante eine kleinere Durchflussklasse als die zweite Variante aufweist.In other words, a series is proposed with at least two variants of a sanitary installation part, each variant having at least one functional unit, at least one housing and/or a diffuser ring, and at least one diffuser, characterized in that the at least two variants have different types of diffusers exhibit that the at least two types of Have diffusers differently designed flow-determining outlet openings, in particular wherein the first variant has a smaller flow class than the second variant.
Nachfolgend werden vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung beschrieben.Advantageous configurations of the invention are described below.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann es vorgesehen sein, dass ein Verhältnis von einer Breite b einer Austrittsöffnung zu einem Abstand a zwischen zwei benachbarten Austrittsöffnung bei dem ersten Typ von Diffusor kleiner als bei dem zweiten Typ ist. Somit ist es möglich, anhand der Baureihe sanitäre Einbauteile unterschiedlicher Durchflussklassen (und/oder Varianten von Durchflussklassen) bereitstellen zu können, wobei lediglich verschiedene Typen von Diffusoren zu verwenden sind, um dies zu erreichen. Je nach Durchflussmenge kann somit der korrekte Diffusor ausgewählt und in das Gehäuse eingesetzt werden, um ein sanitäres Einbauteil auszubilden.According to an advantageous development, it can be provided that a ratio of a width b of an outlet opening to a distance a between two adjacent outlet openings is smaller in the first type of diffuser than in the second type. It is thus possible to be able to provide built-in sanitary parts of different flow classes (and/or variants of flow classes) based on the series, with only different types of diffusers having to be used in order to achieve this. Depending on the flow rate, the correct diffuser can thus be selected and inserted into the housing in order to form a sanitary built-in part.
Gemäß einer besonders bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Baureihe kann es vorgesehen sein, dass die erste Variante als ein sanitäres Einbauteil nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 11 ausgebildet ist.According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the series, it can be provided that the first variant is designed as a sanitary built-in part according to one of
Um sanitäre Einbauteile mit unterschiedlichen Durchflussklassen herstellen zu können, kann es vorgesehen sein, dass das Verhältnis b/a der ersten Variante kleiner als 0,41 ist und/oder dass das Verhältnis b/a der zweiten Variante Typ 0,41 oder größer als 0,41 ist.In order to be able to produce built-in sanitary parts with different flow classes, it can be provided that the ratio b/a of the first variant is less than is 0.41 and/or that the ratio b/a of the second variant type is 0.41 or greater than 0.41.
Um die Herstellungskosten der sanitären Einbauteile, die mittels der Baureihe herstellbar sind, möglichst gering zu halten, kann es gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung vorgesehen sein, dass das Gehäuse und/oder ein Diffusorring der wenigstens zwei Varianten baugleich ist. Das Gehäuse kann sich hierbei auf den Diffusorring beziehen oder es kann sich um unterschiedliche Bauteile handeln.In order to keep the production costs of the sanitary built-in parts that can be produced using the series as low as possible, it can be provided according to a further advantageous embodiment that the housing and/or a diffuser ring of the at least two variants is structurally identical. The housing can refer to the diffuser ring or it can be different components.
Gemäß einer Weiterbildung kann es vorgesehen sein, dass die zweite Variante keine Ablaufschräge am Diffusor aufweist. Somit sind hier andere Strömungseigenschaften erreichbar, als mit der ersten Variante.According to a development, it can be provided that the second variant has no run-off slope on the diffuser. Thus, different flow properties can be achieved here than with the first variant.
Die Erfindung wird nun anhand mehrerer Ausführungsbeispiele näher beschrieben, ist jedoch nicht auf diese Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt.The invention will now be described in more detail using a number of exemplary embodiments, but is not limited to these exemplary embodiments.

In den
Die Erfindung betrifft somit ein sanitäres Einbauteil, das insbesondere als Strahlregler, vorzugsweise als belüfteter Strahlregler, ausgebildet ist. Einbauteile dieser Art weisenThe invention thus relates to a sanitary built-in part which is designed in particular as a jet regulator, preferably as a ventilated jet regulator. Built-in parts of this type have
in der Regel wenigstens eine durchflussbestimmende Funktionseinheit 2 und einen in Strömungsrichtung 3 nach der durchflussbestimmenden Funktionseinheit 2 angeordneten Diffusor 4 auf.usually at least one functional unit 2 that determines the flow and a
Ein solcher Diffusor 4 weist einen Diffusorraum 5 auf, der in seinen Abmessungen zumindest teilweise durch eine Prallfläche 6 begrenzt ist.Such a
Die Prallfläche 6 ist dazu eingerichtet, um in Gebrauchsstellung und/oder während des Betriebes in den Diffusorraum 5 einströmendes Wasser in eine seitliche Richtung abzulenken. Der Diffusorraum 5 selbst weist mehrere Austrittsöffnungen 7 auf, durch die der auf der Prallfläche 6 zerteilte Wasserstahl in Form von Einzelstrahlen aus dem Diffusorraum 5 austritt.The
Es hat sich jedoch herausgestellt, dass gerade bei geringen Durchflussmengen, die zum Beispiel im Bereich von 1 gpm (1 gpm = 6,309 × 10-5 m3/s) +/-10%, insbesondere +/- 20%, liegen können, keine ausreichende Belüftung eines durch das Einbauteil strömenden, darin geformten und belüfteten Wasserstrahl erfolgt. Daher kann mit vorbekannten Einbauteilen kein ansprechendes und von den Kunden gewünschtes Auslaufstrahlbild erzeugt werden.However, it has been found that precisely with low flow rates, which can be in the range of 1 gpm (1 gpm=6.309×10 -5 m 3 /s), for example, +/-10%, in particular +/-20%, there is insufficient aeration of a water jet flowing through the built-in part, being formed and aerated therein. It is therefore not possible to produce an attractive outlet jet pattern that is desired by the customer with previously known built-in parts.
Die
Das sanitäre Einbauteil 1 weist gegenüber vorbekannten Einbauteilen den Vorteil auf, dass damit auch geringe Durchflussmengen von Wasser ausreichend belüftet werden können, so dass ein ansprechendes belüftetes Auslaufstrahlbild erzeugt wird.Compared to previously known built-in parts, the sanitary built-in
Um eine in den Diffusorraum 5 einströmende Wassermenge darin auch ausreichend zerteilen zu können, weist der Diffusorraum 5, wie bereits zuvor für das vorbekannte Einbauteil beschrieben wurde, eine den Diffusorraum 5 wenigstens teilweise begrenzende Prallfläche 6 auf.In order to be able to adequately divide a quantity of water flowing into the
Das sanitäre Einsetzteil 1 zeichnet sich nun dadurch aus, dass an die Prallfläche 6 eine Ablaufschräge 8 anschließt, die auf die Prallfläche 6 auftreffendes und davon ablaufendes Wasser in Richtung der Austrittsöffnungen 7 beschleunigt und ablaufen lässt. Die Ablaufschräge 8 kann somit dazu dienen, ablaufendes Wasser zu beschleunigen, um dieses in Richtung der Austrittsöffnungen 7 zu transportieren.The
Weiter hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn die Austrittsöffnungen 7 eine seitliche Austrittsrichtung, insbesondere eine seitliche Austrittsrichtung, die parallel oder nahezu parallel zur Prallfläche 6 verläuft, festlegen. Dies kann dadurch erreicht werden, dass die Austrittsöffnungen 7 eine umlaufende Seitenwandung 9 des Diffusors 4 durchbrechen.It has also proven to be advantageous if the
Die Austrittsöffnungen 7 haben jeweils eine Breite b, 10. Benachbarte Austrittsöffnungen 7, insbesondere alle benachbarten Austrittsöffnungen 7, können zueinander in gleichen Abständen a, 11 angeordnet sein. Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Einbauteil 1 hat es sich in Bezug auf die Herstellung eines optimalen Auslaufstrahlbildes bei geringen Durchflussmengen als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn ein Verhältnis b/a (b geteilt durch a) kleiner als 0,41 ist.The
Der Diffusor 4 weist wenigstens eine Eintrittsöffnung 12 auf, wobei ein in Gebrauchsstellung durch die wenigstens eine Eintrittsöffnung 12 eintretender Wasserstrahl auf die Prallfläche 6 auftrifft und zerteilt wird. Die wenigstens eine Eintrittsöffnung 12 ist daher derart eingerichtet, dass damit eine Eintrittsrichtung des Wasserstrahls so festgelegt ist, dass dieser auf die Prallfläche 6 auftrifft, insbesondere ausschließlich auf die Prallfläche 6 auftrifft. Das sanitäre Einbauteil 1 kann mehrere Eintrittsöffnungen 12 aufweisen, die insbesondere allesamt auf die Prallfläche 6 ausgerichtet und/oder oberhalb der Prallfläche 6 angeordnet sind.The
Die Prallfläche 6 ist in Bezug auf den einströmenden Wasserstrahl so ausgerichtet, dass ein hoher Strömungswiderstand entsteht. Dies kann dadurch erreicht werden, dass die Prallfläche 6, die als eine Prallebene ausbildbar ist, bezogen auf einen Einfallswinkel des in Gebrauchsstellung einströmenden Wasserstrahls senkrecht oder nahezu senkrecht ausgerichtet ist.The
Die Ablaufschräge 8 ist gegenüber der Prallfläche 6, insbesondere gegenüber einer Ebene der Prallfläche 6, um einen Winkel nach unten und/oder von innen nach außen geneigt. Dieser Winkel kann mindestens 5 Grad, insbesondere mindestens 10 Grad, insbesondere mindestens 15 Grad, insbesondere mindestens 20 Grad, insbesondere mindestens 25 Grad, vorzugsweise etwa 30 Grad, betragen.The run-
Der Diffusorraum kann ringförmig oder scheibenförmig ausgebildet sein.The diffuser space can be ring-shaped or disc-shaped.
Die Austrittsöffnungen 7 sind bei der in den
Die Materialausnehmungen 13 können jeweils eine Mindeststrecke aufweisen, die mindestens 2%, insbesondere mindestens 3%, insbesondere mindestens 4%, insbesondere mindestens 5%, insbesondere mindestens 6%, insbesondere mindestens 7%, insbesondere mindestens 8%, insbesondere mindestens 9%, insbesondere mindestens 10%, eines Durchmessers 14 des Diffusorraums 5 entspricht.The material recesses 13 can each have a minimum distance that is at least 2%, in particular at least 3%, in particular at least 4%, in particular at least 5%, in particular at least 6%, in particular at least 7%, in particular at least 8%, in particular at least 9%, in particular at least 10% of a
Der Diffusorraum 5 ist zwischen der Prallfläche 6 und der durchflussbestimmenden Funktionseinheit 2 ausgebildet, wobei er zuströmseitig durch die Funktionseinheit 2 und abströmseitig durch die Prallfläche 6 begrenzt ist.The
Die durchflussbestimmende Funktionseinheit 2 weist wenigstens einen Mengenbegrenzer 15 und/oder wenigstens eine Drossel auf. Allgemein kann gesagt werden, dass die Funktionseinheit die Durchflussmenge verändert oder verändern kann und/oder dass eine Druckdifferenz zwischen den Abschnitten vor und nach der Funktionseinheit besteht.The flow-determining functional unit 2 has at least one flow limiter 15 and/or at least one throttle. In general it can be said that the functional unit changes or can change the flow rate and/or that there is a pressure difference between the sections before and after the functional unit.
Ein Mengenbegrenzer 15 im Sinne der Erfindung kann sich darauf beziehen, dass über einen Arbeitsbereich des Mengenbegrenzers 15 eine druckunabhängige Einstellung, insbesondere automatische Einstellung, einer Durchflussmenge erfolgt. Somit ist es möglich, eine möglichst konstante Durchflussmenge einzustellen. Im Gegensatz dazu verändert sich bei der Drossel die Durchflussmenge in Abhängigkeit des herrschenden Drucks.A flow limiter 15 within the meaning of the invention can refer to the fact that a pressure-independent setting, in particular automatic setting, of a flow rate takes place over a working range of the flow limiter 15 . This makes it possible to keep the flow rate as constant as possible set. In contrast, with the throttle, the flow rate changes depending on the prevailing pressure.
Das sanitäre Einbauteil 1 weist ein Gehäuse 16 auf, in welches der Diffusor 4 und/oder die wenigstens eine durchflussbestimmende Funktionseinheit 2 zumindest teilweise eingesetzt sind.The sanitary built-in
Das Gehäuse 16 hat eine Wandung 17, die eine den Austrittsöffnungen 7 in Strömungsrichtung 3 nachgelagerte, insbesondere ringförmige, Auffangkammer 18 seitlich begrenzt. Die Auffangkammer 18 kann der Belüftung des Wasserstrahls dienen und kann daher auch Belüftungsöffnungen zum Ansaugen von Luft, insbesondere von außen, aufweisen.The housing 16 has a
Das Gehäuse 16 hat somit Einfluss auf das Strömungsverhalten des durchströmenden Wassers. Zusammen mit dem Diffusor 4 definiert das Gehäuse 16 somit die Strömungsrichtung 3 des Wassers durch das Einbauteil 1 und/oder trägt zur Strahlformung und/oder zur Strahlbelüftung bei. Es existiert somit eine Auslaufstrahlform bestimmende Wechselwirkung zwischen dem Diffusor 4 und dem Gehäuse 16, weshalb das Gehäuse 16 auch als Diffusorring 23 bezeichnet werden kann.The housing 16 thus influences the flow behavior of the water flowing through. Together with the
Auf und/oder am Rand der Prallfläche 6 sind mehrere, insbesondere auf einer Kreisbahn angeordnete Zerteilerelemente 19 ausgebildet. Die Zerteilerelemente 19 sind den Austrittsöffnungen in Strömungsrichtung 3 vorgelagert. Sie unterteilen bei der gezeigten Ausführungsvariante die Kante und/oder einen äußeren Rand 20 der Ablaufschräge 8 in Teilabschnitte.On and/or at the edge of the
Die Zerteilerelemente 19 können beispielsweise als in Richtung der Austrittsöffnungen ansteigenden Rampen und/oder Keile ausgebildet sein, wie in den
Nach der Ablaufschräge 8 ist eine Stufe 22 ausgebildet, die zu einer der Ablaufschräge in Strömungsrichtung 3 nachgelagerten Sammelkammer 21 führt. Die Sammelkammer 21 stellt daher einen Teil des Diffusorraums 5 dar. Eine Höhe der Sammelkammer 21 ist höher als der übrige Diffusorraum 5, insbesondere im Bereich der Prallfläche 6.After the run-off slope 8 a step 22 is formed, which leads to a

Die Varianten 24 und 25 unterscheiden sich dabei lediglich in einem Diffusortyp, der darin verbaut ist.The
Die Funktionseinheit 2 und/oder das Gehäuse 16, insbesondere der Diffusorring 23, der beiden Varianten 24, 25 ist baugleich ausgestaltet.The functional unit 2 and/or the housing 16, in particular the diffuser ring 23, of the two
Die wenigstens zwei Varianten 24, 25 der Baureihe weisen unterschiedliche Diffusoren 4 auf, die sich dadurch unterscheiden, dass die wenigstens zwei Typen von Diffusoren 4 Austrittsöffnungen 7 mit einem unterschiedlichem Öffnungsmaß aufweisen. Die erste Variante 24 ist somit einer kleineren Durchflussklasse als die zweite Variante 25 zugeordnet.The at least two
Weiter kann gesagt werden, dass ein Verhältnis von einer Breite b der jeweiligen Austrittsöffnungen 7 zu einem jeweiligen Abstand a zwischen zwei benachbarten Austrittsöffnungen 7 bei der ersten Variante 24 kleiner als bei der zweiten Variante 25 ist.It can also be said that a ratio of a width b of the
Genauer kann gesagt werden, dass das Verhältnis b/a der ersten Variante 24 kleiner als 0,41 ist und/oder dass das Verhältnis b/a der zweiten Variante 25 0,41 oder größer als 0,41 ist.More specifically, it can be said that the ratio b/a of the
