Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary arrangement.
  • Such a sanitary arrangement can, for example, be a shower facility in which it is possible to switch between a hand shower and an overhead shower.
  • a user who is not familiar with a specific installation for example a hotel guest who is using the shower facility of a hotel room for the first time, may be unclear through which water outlet the water flows out when the fitting is opened.
  • the object of the invention is to further develop a sanitary arrangement.
  • the sanitary arrangement according to the invention has in particular at least two diverters, each diverter having a water inlet and at least two water outlets, the first water outlet of the first diverter being fluidically connected to the water inlet of the second diverter and at least one water outlet of the second diverter having a detachable interface to the fluidic Has connection with a water dispenser.
  • any commercially available water dispensing device such as a hand shower, can also be used connected to the sanitary arrangement and used.
  • the second water outlet of the first diverter is a safety outlet.
  • the safety outlet can be arranged or aligned in such a way that a person is usually not directly in the spray area of the safety outlet.
  • the second water outlet of the first diverter has a detachable interface for fluidic connection to a safety outlet.
  • the safety outlet can be, for example, a bath fitting, a toe tester or a shower head. In this way, a problem-free and safe testing of the water temperature is possible.
  • a shifter can be a monostable or bistable shifter.
  • a monostable diverter can be characterized, for example, by the fact that it automatically returns to an initial position without water pressure. On the other hand, it is difficult or impossible to manually switch to the starting position when the water pressure is applied.
  • a bistable diverter can be switched with or without pressure, whereby the respective switching position is maintained with and without water pressure.
  • the first converter is a monostable converter.
  • the safety outlet can then be placed on the start or home position of the diverter. In this way, the first can always Safety outlet must be selected so that you have to actively switch to the second diverter. After turning off the water, the first diverter always returns to the safety outlet. In this way, burns or unpleasant experiences can be reliably ruled out.
  • the second switch is preferably a bistable switch. In this way, you can switch between the two water outlets during operation without having to turn off the water beforehand.
  • the combination of a monostable diverter and a bistable diverter enables the water temperature to be tested at a non-critical point, as well as a comfort function in which it is possible to switch back and forth between two outlets, for example overhead shower and hand shower or the like, with one temperature remaining preset .
  • a further advantage results from the fact that three outlets can be selected, with only one outlet being activated at a time. In this way, country-specific standards, for example those of the USA, can be met.
  • At least one water outlet of the second diverter is designed as a water dispensing device. This can, for example, be structurally connected to the switch.
  • a water-dispensing device can be, for example, a bathtub inlet, a head shower, a shower head, a hand shower, a flood shower or a massage area.
  • both water outlets of the second diverter have a detachable interface for fluidic connection to a water dispensing device.
  • a water dispensing device In this way two, also different, commercially available water dispensing devices can be connected and used with the sanitary arrangement.
  • At least one detachable interface is located on a tube or hose that is fluidically connected to the second diverter.
  • the pipe or hose can be structurally or detachably connected to the diverter.
  • the detachable interface for the fluidic connection has a screw connection or a plug-in connection.
  • a screw connection can be, for example, a standardized screw connection, such as a G1 ⁇ 2 screw connection.
  • a plug-in connection can be a pipe or hose plug-in connection, for example.
  • At least one of the two switches has a push-push mechanism. In this way, a simple switchover is possible by pressing a button.
  • a valve is fluidically connected upstream of the water inlet of the first diverter.
  • valve can be switched with a push-push mechanism.
  • a push-push mechanism an easy connection and / or disconnection is achievable, for example a temperature setting, a mixing ratio and/or a flow rate can be left unchanged when a water flow is to be interrupted.
  • the water inlet of the first diverter has a detachable interface for fluidic connection with the valve. In this way, a flexible arrangement of the valve and the diverter is possible.
  • the valve can be designed, for example, as a flow and/or temperature controller. It can also have a push mechanism.
  • the 1 shows a first sanitary arrangement 1 according to the invention with a first diverter 2 and a second diverter 3.
  • the diverters 2 and 3 each have a water inlet 4 , a first water outlet 5 and a second water outlet 6 .
  • the first water outlet of the first diverter 2 is fluidly connected to the water inlet 4 of the second diverter 3 . Structurally, this can be done in a fitting. However, it is also possible here to establish a fluidic connection via detachable interfaces.
  • the second diverter 3 has two water outlets 5, 6, which can be about different shower heads or the like water dispensers.
  • the second water outlet 6 of the first diverter 2 is designed as a safety outlet 7 .
  • This safety outlet 7 can be, for example, a tub filling fitting, a toe tester or a shower head.
  • the safety outlet 7 is shown as being formed in one unit with the first diverter 2 .
  • the first diverter 2 can be arranged directly in a tub filling fitting, that is to say installed.
  • the first diverter 2 can also have a detachable interface for fluidically connecting the safety outlet to a water-dispensing device, with this water-dispensing device then serving as a safety outlet.
  • the first converter 2 is preferably a monostable Diverter, wherein the second water outlet 6 represents the monostable switch position, so that the safety outlet 7 is the basic position of the first diverter 2. In this way, scalding or other unpleasant thermal experiences can be avoided.
  • the second diverter 3 is preferably a bistable diverter, so that it is possible to switch between the different water outlets 5, 6 without interrupting the water.
  • the 2 shows another sanitary arrangement 1, which is essentially the 1 is equivalent to.
  • the two water outlets 5, 6 each have a detachable interface 8 for fluidically connecting a water dispensing device.
  • Such an interface 8 can be any known or standardized interface.
  • any water-dispensing device 9 can be connected to the sanitary arrangement and used with it.
  • the end user in particular can also exchange water dispensing devices 9 without complex interventions in the sanitary arrangement 1 being necessary.
  • a water dispenser 9 has a complementary interface 8.
  • a water dispensing device 9 is indicated schematically, which has an external thread 10 .
  • a tube 11 with a matching internal thread 12 is arranged on the side of the second diverter 3 .
  • the pipe 11 can be connected to the second diverter 3 structurally or via a detachable fluidic interface.
  • the water dispenser 9 has an attachment area 13, which is designed as a tubular extension.
  • two O-rings 14 are arranged at a distance from one another.
  • a tube 11 can be attached to this attachment area 13 .
  • the tube 11 in the example has a fixation 15 which can be designed, for example, as a grub screw, the tip of which presses into the attachment area 13 .
  • the water dispensing device 9 has an insertion area 18 which has an O-ring 14 and a retaining projection 16 on an inner circumference.
  • a tube 17 can be inserted into this plug-in area 18 , with the retaining projection 16 engaging in the preferably elastic tube 17 and thus preventing the tube 17 from being pushed out of the plug-in area 18 .
  • hose can be connected to a union nut with a thread.
  • Other plug-in connections are also known, which is why the application should in no way be restricted to the versions shown here.
  • the 3 shows another sanitary arrangement 1, which is essentially the 2 is equivalent to.
  • a valve 19 is fluidically connected upstream of the first diverter 2 .
  • This valve 19 can be a volume flow controller, a thermostat, or another valve.
  • the advantage here is that a volume flow and/or a temperature setting can be set independently of the setting of the water outlet. Accordingly, such a setting is retained even when changing over the various changeover devices.
  • several separate valves with different functions can also be used be upstream.
