Definitions
- the invention relates to a jet regulator, in particular for use in a fitting outlet, comprising a housing which at least partially delimits a flow path of a fluid, a splitter structure being arranged within the flow path, to which an outlet structure is formed downstream in the flow path.
- the task is to improve the performance characteristics of jet regulators of the type mentioned at the beginning.
- a jet regulator of the type mentioned at the outset is proposed, which is characterized in that an intermediate space between the splitter structure and the outlet structure is designed to be laterally open, that at least one flow obstacle is inserted laterally in the intermediate space, in particular is arranged to be removable from the side, and that the flow obstacle is supported in an area through which the flow path is defined. Multiple support of the at least one flow obstacle is thus possible, so that forces acting on the flow obstacle can be better absorbed.
- the manufacturing costs for such multi-part jet regulators can be significantly reduced.
- At least one support point, preferably all support points, of the flow obstacle is / are arranged at a distance from a delimitation of the flow path. It can thus be prevented that forces acting on the flow obstacle act on the delimitation of the flow path, such as, for example, on a housing wall delimiting the flow path.
- the at least one flow obstacle is unfixed at least at its edge area.
- the at least one flow obstacle can preferably be arranged in a form-fitting manner in the position of use of the jet regulator in the space between the splitter structure and the outlet structure. In this way, the at least one flow obstacle can also be held in an intended position during the operation of the jet regulator.
- the at least one flow obstacle is held over several support points of the outlet structure that are located within the flow path.
- the at least one flow obstacle can be held exclusively by the support points.
- the at least one flow obstacle partially or completely fills a cross section of the flow path.
- the at least one flow obstacle as at least one Sieve is formed.
- the at least one flow obstacle can preferably be designed as a sieve formed from a mesh, in particular from a metal mesh.
- the jet regulator in particular the housing of the jet regulator, has a non-circular cross section.
- the dividing structure has a plurality of dividing elements oriented transversely, in particular perpendicularly, to the direction of flow of the fluid, the dividing elements being arranged in at least one row next to one another.
- the dividing elements can be designed to be open on one side. This favors a lateral insertion of the flow obstacle.
- the outlet structure has several rectifying elements, in particular in the form of lamellae, which are preferably formed in at least one row transversely to the direction of flow of the fluid, the at least one flow obstacle resting on the top of the rectifying elements which support points are formed.
- the rectifying elements can be designed to be open on one side. This favors a lateral insertion of the flow obstacle.
- the jet regulator can be designed as a rectangular jet regulator.
- a jet regulator is suitable for operation in non-circular, in particular rectangular, outlet fittings.
- the invention further relates to a method for producing a jet regulator, in particular as described and / or claimed herein, wherein a housing is formed with at least one at least partially open side, in particular formed by an injection molding process, via which access to an intermediate space between a dividing structure and an outlet structure, with at least one flow obstacle being inserted laterally into the intermediate space via the access, in particular being arranged so that it can be removed laterally.
- the at least one flow obstacle can be inserted in an unfixed manner, the flow obstacle being supported in an area through which the flow passes, defined by the flow path.
- Fig. 1 shows a possible embodiment of an inventive
- Jet regulator in which a flow obstacle is inserted between a splitter structure and an outlet structure via an access in a housing wall and is stored in the space over several support points,
- Fig. 2 shows the embodiment from Fig. 1 shortly before the
- FIGS. 3-6 several views of the configuration of the jet regulator from FIGS. 1 and 2, 7 shows a side sectional view of the jet regulator shown in FIGS. 1-6 and a detailed view of the space between the splitter structure and the outlet structure in which the flow obstacle is inserted,
- FIGS. 1-7 are top views of the jet regulator from FIGS. 1-7
- FIGS. 9 shows a possible application of the jet regulator from FIGS.
- FIGS. 1-11 show a possible variant embodiment of a jet regulator according to the invention, which is designated as 1 as a whole.
- the jet regulator 1 is designed to be in a
- Faucet outlet 2 to be used, for example, a sanitary fitting.
- the jet regulator 1 thus makes it possible to form an outlet jet pattern of the water flowing out of the fitting outlet 2.
- the jet regulator 1 has a housing 3.
- the housing 3 partially delimits a flow path 4 of a fluid flowing through the jet regulator 1.
- a dividing structure 5 and an outlet structure 6 downstream of the dividing structure 5 in the direction of flow 19 are formed within the housing 3. Between the dividing structure 5 and the outlet structure 6 there is a free space 7.
- the housing 3 has an opening at least at the location of the space 7, through which an access 16 is created from the outside.
- the housing 3 can also, as can be seen in the embodiment variant from FIGS. 1-5 and 9, be designed to be laterally open over the entire area of the splitter structure 5 and the outlet structure 6.
- At least one flow obstacle 8 can be inserted into the intermediate space 7 or, in the position of use, can be inserted preferably removable.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 can thus preferably be removed from the housing 3 via the access 16 when the jet regulator 1 is outside the fitting outlet 2. Thus, it can be cleaned easily.
- the access 16 is closed by the wall of the fitting outlet 2.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 is arranged transversely, in particular perpendicular, to the flow direction 19 and / or the flow path 4 of the fluid.
- the flow obstacle 8 is supported and held within the flow path 4.
- the support takes place via several support points 9 which are formed within the flow path 4.
- the support points 9 are spaced apart from the delimitation 10, in particular from the narrow-sided delimitation 10, of the flow path 4.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 is therefore unfixed in the inserted state at least at its edge region 11, that is to say preferably only held in its position by gravity and / or the application of pressure and / or form fit.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 can thus be arranged in a form-fitting manner in the position of use of the jet regulator 1 in the space 7.
- the flow obstacle 8 is distributed over several over the cross section of the flow path 4 and / or supported points 9 arranged in a plane. An alignment of the at least one flow obstacle 8 within the housing 3 is thus also defined by the support points 9.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 completely fills a cross section of the flow path 4.
- the flow obstacle 8 thus at least partially contacts the delimitation 10 of the flow path 4, in particular without being fixed in the area of the delimitation 10.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 can be designed at least partially as a sieve 12, for example.
- this is designed as a sieve 12 formed from a mesh, in particular from a metal mesh.
- FIGS. 1-11 show a variant of a jet regulator 1 with a non-circular, rectangular cross section, which can be inserted into a matching jet regulator receptacle of a fitting outlet 2, as shown in FIGS. 9-11.
- the aforementioned dividing structure 5 comprises a plurality of dividing elements 13 protruding from an inside of a side wall of the housing 3.
- the dividing elements 13 are therefore transverse, in particular perpendicular, aligned to the direction of flow 19 of the fluid.
- the splitter structure 5 comprises two rows of splitter elements 13 arranged one after the other in different planes, the splitter elements 13 of the two rows being arranged offset to one another.
- the dividing elements 13 are designed to be open on one side.
- the aforementioned outlet structure 6 comprises a plurality of rectifying elements 14 protruding from a side wall of the housing 3.
- the rectifying elements 14 are therefore oriented transversely, in particular perpendicularly, to the direction of flow 19 of the fluid.
- the rectifying elements 14 can be designed as lamellae 15.
- the rectifier elements 14 are preferably formed in at least one row transversely to the flow direction 19 of the fluid, in particular lying in one plane.
- the at least one flow obstacle 8 thus rests on the upper sides of the rectifying elements 14, so that the aforementioned support points 9 are formed by the upper sides.
- the rectifier elements 14 are designed to be open on one side, namely for the insertion of the flow obstacle 8.
- a latching mechanism 17 formed on an outside of the housing 3 is shown in FIG. 6.
- the latching mechanism 17 has at least two latching elements 18, in particular formed on sides of the housing 3 facing away from one another, which have a pretension.
- the latching elements 18 When inserted into a jet regulator receptacle, the latching elements 18 are displaced inward by contacting their bevel on a wall of the fitting outlet 2 until they engage in at least one matching counter-latching element of the fitting outlet 2.
- the jet regulator 1 can be released from the latching on the fitting outlet 2 and removed will.
- the invention thus relates in particular to a jet regulator 1 for use in a fitting outlet 2, comprising a housing 3 which partially delimits a flow path 4 of a fluid, with a splitter structure 5 being arranged within the housing 3 and an outlet structure 6 downstream, the housing 3 being a has a lateral opening to an intermediate space 7 between the dividing structure 5 and the outlet structure 6, at least one flow obstacle 8 being arranged in the intermediate space 7 such that it can be removed laterally, and wherein the flow obstacle 8 is supported in an area through which the flow is defined by the flow path 4.
