Definitions
- Sanitary insert method for producing a sanitary insert and method for identifying a product shape of a sanitary insert, and computer program product
- the invention relates to a sanitary insert.
- the invention relates to a sanitary insert designed as a jet regulator.
- the sanitary insert part comprises a housing, in which at least one functional unit is arranged, and an outlet side which is formed by an outlet structure.
- the outlet side can be visible to a user from the outside when the sanitary insert part is installed in a sanitary fitting.
- the invention further relates to a method for producing a sanitary insert part and a method for identifying a product shape of a sanitary insert part as well as a computer program product, a device for
- Sanitary insert parts of the type mentioned at the beginning are used, for example, in the sanitary sector. Such sanitary inserts can wear out over time with use or become soiled over time. This can then lead to functional restrictions, in particular to the functional unit.
- sanitary insert parts have standardized sizes, so that it is not or hardly possible to determine a specific type of sanitary insert part solely on the basis of the dimensions. It is therefore often very difficult for a user to find a suitable replacement part for a defective or used sanitary insert which, in particular, has the same functional unit. There is therefore the task of making it easier for a user to identify a specific product form of a sanitary insert.
- a sanitary insert of the type mentioned at the beginning is proposed to achieve the object, which is further characterized in that the sanitary insert has at least one perceptible identifier via which an identification of a product form of the sanitary insert, in particular at least the functional unit of the sanitary insert, is possible is.
- This identifier can preferably be designed to be optically perceptible.
- the embodiment according to the invention thus has the advantage that a user without specialist knowledge of the insert part to be replaced can replace it with a structurally identical new insert part.
- Usual sanitary insert parts are designed in such a way that a user cannot recognize any specific features on the insert part in the installation situation which indicate a certain product shape.
- the sanitary insert according to the invention now offers the possibility of identifying the product shape, preferably without the sanitary insert having to be removed, for example in order to have to compare a serial number printed on the side of the housing. As a rule, it is also the case that a defective sanitary insert does not suddenly lose its functionality, but rather the user first perceives restrictions in functionality.
- product shape can refer, for example, to an exactly identical type of sanitary insert and / or to a product category, such as “water saver” or “non-saver” in the case of jet regulators.
- the sanitary insert can have at least two identifier elements that are adjustable relative to one another, in particular by an angle of rotation, and / or can be fixed in a position relative to one another.
- a fixation can be understood here to mean, in particular, a determination of the relative position of the identifier elements which can be adjusted to one another, which is permanent, that is to say, for example, cannot be changed during the intended use of the insert part.
- the sanitary insert part can have at least two identification rings and / or at least one housing part and / or at least one sieve and / or at least two housing parts as identification elements.
- a specific identifier can be set or set. It is thus easily possible for a user to clearly assign the product shape based on the specific identifier set to be able to make or to identify an identical replacement insert part.
- the relative fixation of the identifier elements can be achieved, for example, by molding on or clipping on or plugging in or snapping into place or the like.
- a characteristic of the fixation can be that it can no longer be changed in the intended use position of the sanitary insert, or at least does not have to be changed during operation (the former variant being preferred for reasons of security of identification).
- the at least two identifier elements can thus already be adjustable during the manufacture of the insert part and / or afterwards relative to one another into an adjustment position characterizing the insert part or a specific product shape of the same. Furthermore, the identifier elements can be permanently fixable in the setting position set in this way (see above). As a result, it can be achieved in particular that the setting position cannot be changed when the insert part is in an intended use position and thus allows the insert part to be clearly identified.
- the sanitary insert has an identification object which can be removed or folded out from the housing and / or from the outlet side and which has the at least one identification. It can be particularly advantageous that a user can remove the identifier object or transfer the identifier shown on the identifier object to a memo or the like in order to then purchase a replacement from a specialist store, using the removed identifier object or the memo regardless of the insert that is still installed can take away.
- the at least one identifier is arranged in such a way that a detection of the at least one identifier in the installed state of the sanitary insert part is possible in a sanitary fitting.
- the at least one identifier can be detectable, in particular readable, on the outlet side.
- the sanitary insert preferably remains functional during the detection of the at least one identifier.
- the at least one identifier can be formed by at least one plug-in element.
- the at least one plug-in element can be plugged into and / or into the outlet structure and / or into the housing and / or a sieve.
- a pattern that forms the at least one identifier can preferably be configured by a plurality of plug-in elements. A large number of different specific identifiers can thus be formed in a simple manner.
- the sanitary insert has a transponder in which the at least one identifier is stored, the at least one identifier being readable with a reader, preferably an external reader.
- the at least one identifier can be read out electronically and / or without contact.
- the transponder can be designed as an RFID transponder and / or as an NFC chip.
- a particularly simple identification of the product shape of the sanitary insert is thus possible, since a user does not even have a clear view of the outlet side of the sanitary insert Insert part required to visually read an identifier. Rather, an unambiguous identification can be carried out by means of a suitable reading device, which can be made available in a hardware store or can be borrowed, for example.
- the at least one identifier is designed as a two-dimensional and / or as a three-dimensional code.
- the at least one identifier is designed as a two-dimensional and / or as a three-dimensional code.
- Identifier can be designed as a QR code and / or as plain text and / or as a height profile (in particular as a height relief made of elevations protruding from the outlet side and depressions between the elevations). It can be particularly advantageous if the height profile is formed on the edge of the outlet side. It is thus possible to identify the product shape of the insert part by identifying the two-dimensional and / or the three-dimensional code.
- the at least one identifier is arranged and / or formed from one of the following structures or a combination of two or more of the following structures of the sanitary insert part:
- Outlet side in particular as a pattern of fillings of the passage openings of the outlet structure, attachment sieve, in particular fillings of the sieve openings, mouthpiece, seal, housing, in particular on a lateral surface of the housing.
- a sanitary insert with at least one, preferably optically or magnetically perceptible identifier for identifying a product shape of the sanitary insert, with an adjustment, in particular by an angle of rotation, of at least two to form the identifier relative to one another adjustable identifier elements is made, and that the identifier elements are fixed in the set position relative to one another.
- the identifier can also be read out optically and magnetically.
- a setting position characterizing the insert or a specific product shape is permanently established by said fixing. This is because this can take place in particular in such a way that the insert part can then be clearly identified in an intended use position of the insert part. As a result, the insert part can thus be identified particularly easily, in particular without removing it from a fitting.
- a fixation can be understood here to mean, in particular, a determination of the relative position of the identifier elements which can be adjusted to one another, which is permanent, that is to say, for example, cannot be changed during the intended use of the insert part.
- This ensures that the insert part can in any case be identified in a reproducible manner on the basis of the relative setting position, once fixed, between the at least two identification elements.
- This property of being permanently fixable in the setting position thus distinguishes the one according to the invention Identification elements of setting rings known in the prior art or the like, which are adjusted by the user when used as intended, for example in order to set / change a flow volume through the insert or another size.
- At least one plug-in element is inserted into the housing and / or an outlet structure and / or a sieve to form the at least one identifier is inserted, preferably that a pattern consisting of several plug-in elements is inserted.
- the sanitary insert has at least one magnetically readable identifier, by means of which a product shape of the sanitary insert can be identified. It is particularly advantageous here that the identifier does not have to be perceptible from the outside, so that the product design can enjoy greater freedom with regard to the design of the insert (the surface of the insert then no longer has to form the identifier, but rather the identifier can be inside of the insert part must be hidden).
- the invention further relates to a method for identifying a product shape of a sanitary insert with which the above-mentioned object can be achieved.
- the insert part can preferably be designed or produced as described above, or according to one of the claims which are directed to such an insert part or to a method for producing such an insert part.
- This identification method can preferably be designed as a computer-implemented method, in particular in such a way that all method steps are computer-implemented.
- At least one identifier assigned to the product shape is recorded on the sanitary insert part, in particular detected, that a The detected at least one identifier is assigned to the product shape, and that the product shape is output as a result and / or the insert part is sorted according to its product shape.
- an identifier object having the at least one identifier is removed or folded out from the housing and / or from the outlet side, and that the identifier is identified on the identifier object.
- the at least one identifier is machine-readable.
- the at least one identifier can be coded in a machine-readable manner by means of feature and / or shape recognition on the identifier object.
- a detection method or a combination of at least two detection methods is selected from optical detection (e.g. color coding), near field communication, haptic detection, detection by form fit, magnetic detection, electromagnetic detection, is / are used to detect the identifier.
- the at least one identifier is recorded by molding in a negative, in particular the negative being compared with an identifier list comprising positives.
- the at least one identifier can be recorded using a negative that has been provided.
- this negative can be supplied with a delivery, in particular separated from the insert part or connected to it in a detachable or separable manner.
- a detection tool is thus available that can be used to identify a structurally identical replacement insert.
- the negative can be compared with an identification list comprising positive.
- the said identifier which is configured on or in the sanitary insert, can also be read out magnetically (either in addition to or as an alternative to optical or mechanical readout).
- Corresponding magnetic field sensors can be used for this, which detect a magnetic field of the identifier, which can be achieved even if the identifier is hidden from the outside in the insert part.
- the invention further relates to a computer program product comprising instructions which, when the program is executed by a computer, cause the computer to execute the method as described and / or claimed herein.
- the invention also relates to a device for data processing, comprising means for carrying out the steps of the method as described and / or claimed herein.

- FIG. 21 shows a further embodiment variant of a sanitary insert according to the invention with an optically readable identifier in the form of a color coding of the outlet structure.
- FIGS Several design variants of a sanitary insert part are shown in FIGS are.
- Each sanitary insert 1 can be set up in a water outlet of a faucet to be used.
- the sanitary insert can be designed as a jet regulator.
- a jet regulator can be set up to homogenize a water jet emerging from a fitting.
- the sanitary insert 1 has a housing 2 on which an outlet structure 5 is arranged and / or formed, which forms an outlet side 4 of the sanitary insert 1.
- the outlet structure 5 can, for example, have a honeycomb or lattice structure, so that a plurality of passage openings 18 that are separate from one another are formed through the outlet structure 5.
- the sanitary insert part 1 has at least one identifier 6.
- Each identifier 6 is thus assigned to a specific product shape.
- the invention thus also comprises an assortment of several sanitary insert parts 1 of different product forms, each with different identifiers 6.
- the at least one identifier 6 makes it possible to replace a used or defective sanitary insert part 1 with a new sanitary insert part 1 that is structurally identical or at least matching with regard to the product type, without specialist knowledge.
- the identifier 6 makes it possible to identify the sanitary insert part 1 and / or at least the functional unit 3 or to find a new sanitary insert part 1 with the same identifier 6 in order to replace the old one.
- Such units that form, define and / or define a water jet can be regarded as functional unit 3 ventilate.
- the individual design variants of the sanitary insert part 1 therefore differ in the type of design of the identifier 6.
- the invention is not limited to the design variants shown in FIGS. 1-19.
- the sanitary insert part 1 shows a variant of the sanitary insert part 1 which has two identifier elements 7 which can be adjusted relative to one another by an angle of rotation.
- the identification elements 7 are each designed here as identification rings 8 and / or as identification ring 8 and a housing part 9 that can be adjusted relative thereto.
- By making the identifier elements 7 relative to one another it is thus possible to set an identifier 6 assigned to a specific product shape. This is achieved in that the two identification elements 7 are adjusted to a specific setting position 29 characterizing the product shape and this setting position is then permanently fixed (i.e. unchangeable during the intended use of the insert part).
- the setting position cannot be changed when the insert part is in a position of use and thus allows the insert part to be clearly identified.
- the product shape of the insert part can be determined. This can be done in a computer-implemented manner, for example by means of an app on a smart phone that optically reads the setting position and using an identifier list stored (in the app or currently on the network) to determine the product type / product shape of the insert part based on the setting position 29 read out.
- the setting position 29 is a relative rotational position between the two rotatably adjustable identification elements 7.
- further possible relative setting positions 29 are explained; thus these can also be designed with more than just two identifier elements 7 and other spatial adjustments of the identifier elements 7 relative to one another could also be used in order to define a characteristic setting position 29.
- the two mutually adjustable identification elements 7 can also have, for example, recesses, in particular notches. However, it is also conceivable that the identifier 6 is formed by other identifier elements 7 lying on the identifier rings 8.
- the identification elements 7 can also be formed on a side wall 23 and / or on the outlet side 4 of the housing 2. As a result, it may even be possible to read the identifier 6 when the sanitary insert 1 is inserted into a fitting without the fitting being dismantled for this purpose.
- FIG. 2 shows an embodiment variant in which the identifier 6 is formed by material recesses 22.
- the identifier 6 can be specified in relation to the product shape in that the number of material recesses 22 of different product shapes varies.
- the material recesses 22 can be formed on a side wall 23 and / or on the outlet side 4 of the housing 2.
- FIG. 3 shows a variant similar to the embodiment variant from FIG. 2, with material accumulations 23 being formed here instead of material recesses 22, the number of which can be adapted, as in the embodiment variant from FIG. 2, depending on the product shape.
- 4 shows an embodiment variant of a sanitary insert part 1 in which identification elements 7 are inserted as plug-in elements 12 in a specific pattern 13 and / or a specific number based on a specific product shape in the outlet structure 5.
- a passage opening 18 can be closed by a plug-in element 12, so that a filling 17 is formed.
- an identifier 6 can thus be formed which can be assigned to a specific product type.
- Such plug-in elements 12 can thus also define (by plugging in or not plugging in) a characteristic setting position 29 as described above, which on the one hand can be easily read out optically (in particular machine and / or computer-implemented) and which is characteristic of a certain product shape / product type of the insert part .
- the outlet side 4 can correspond to an end face of the housing 2.
- the plug-in elements 12 not being inserted into the outlet side 4 or the outlet structure 5, but into a side wall 23, in particular a lateral surface, of the housing 2.
- several openings and / or recesses 25 are formed on the housing 2, in which the plug-in elements 12, in particular during the production of the sanitary insert part 1, can be inserted.
- identifier elements 7 used to form the identifier 6 are arranged as ribs 26 on the outlet side 4.
- the identifier elements 7 designed as ribs 26 can be designed, for example, as extensions of the boundaries between two passage openings 18 of the outlet structure 5.
- the ribs 26 can also have several changes in direction, so that identification is possible, for example, via the number of changes in direction and / or the number of ribs 26 and / or the position of the ribs 26 and / or the color of the ribs 26.
- FIG. 7 shows a sanitary insert 1 with one or more fillings 17 of individual and / or several passage openings 18.
- the fillings 17 can completely and / or only partially close the passage openings 18.
- the fillings 17 make it possible to form certain product shape-specific patterns 13 on the outlet side 4.
- the identifier 6 is formed here on an inlet side 27 of the sanitary insert part 1.
- the identifier 6 is formed on a sieve 10.
- the identification elements 7 are designed as ribs 26 and protrude from an upper side of the sieve 10.
- three-dimensional patterns 13 can be formed by the identification elements 7, wherein the pattern formation and / or position and / or number of ribs 26 can vary depending on the respective product shape.
- FIG. 9 shows a sanitary insert 1 with one or more fillings 17 of individual and / or several openings of a sieve 10 arranged or formed on the inlet side 27.
- the fillings 17 can close the openings completely or only partially.
- the fillings 17 make it possible to form certain product shape-specific patterns 13 on the inlet side 27.
- 10 shows a sanitary insert 1 with an identifier 6 formed from three-dimensional identifier elements 7 protruding from the outlet side 4 a detection tool 28 is insertable.
- the detection tool 28 can, for example, comprise a container in which a deformable impression material is contained. By pressing the positive into the impression material in the manner of a stamp, it is possible to form a negative.
- the sanitary insert 1 as a set together with a matching detection tool 28. Only a structurally identical replacement insert part 1 can then be inserted into the preformed detection tool 28 with the matching negative. The detection tool 28 thus has a preformed negative to the positive of the insert part 1. Unsuitable insert parts 1 are therefore not suitable replacement parts.
- the embodiment variant from FIG. 11 essentially corresponds to the sanitary insert 1 according to FIG. 12, the design of the positive not being formed by identification elements 7 protruding from the outlet side, but rather the identification elements 7 of the positive being formed by indentations and / or material recesses 22 .
- the negative of the detection tool 28 has matching counter-elements 29 for the identification elements 7, which can be inserted into the identification elements 7 if they are an identical, matching spare part 1 is involved.
- the detection can take place here, for example, by means of near field communication (NFC) if the identification element 7 designed as a transponder 14 is designed, for example, as an NFC transponder and / or RFID chip.
- NFC near field communication
- the identification of the design via near-field communication has the advantage that the sanitary insert 1 does not even have to be removed from the fitting for this purpose.
- the 13 shows a sanitary insert 1 with a code 16 as an identifier 6.
- the code 16 can be one-dimensional and / or two-dimensional and / or three-dimensional. In particular, it can be a QR code.
- the code can be scanned and / or translated by means of a reading device 15 designed, for example, as a scanner, so that a user receives the product form of the sanitary insert 1 as a result.
- FIG. 14 shows a variant of a sanitary insert part 1 with a ferromagnetic identifier 6, which can be read out and / or activated by a magnet 21.
- a ferromagnetic identification element 7 can lead to an interaction with the magnet 21.
- the user can draw conclusions about the product shape of the sanitary insert part 1 based on the type of interaction.
- the ferromagnetic detection of the identifier 6 can sometimes also take place when the insert part 1 is installed.
- the sanitary insert 1 thus remains functional during the detection of the identifier 6.
- FIG Design variants of the sanitary insert part 1 each have different identifiers 6 which are formed on a seal 20 which is arranged or can be arranged on the inlet side 27. Due to the type of identifier 6 on the seal 20, which, for example, as indentations,
- Material recesses and / or material accumulations are formed identifying elements 7, a conclusion about the respective product shape of the sanitary insert 1 can be made.
- the mouthpiece 19 has a coupling point which can be connected to a counter-coupling point on the fitting outlet that corresponds to it.
- the coupling point can be designed as a thread, in particular as an external thread.
- the at least one identifier 6 is formed and / or printed on the outside of the mouthpiece 19.
- it can be a code 16, in particular a plain text and / or a graphic and / or two-dimensional code, such as a QR code.
- FIG. 18 shows an embodiment variant of a sanitary insert 1 with an identifier object 11 which can be detached or folded out from the housing 2 and / or from the outlet side 4 and which has the at least one identifier 6.
- the identifier object 11 can be pulled out of a slot in the axial direction in order to be able to read the identifier 6 in the pulled-out state.
- the sanitary insert 1 thus remains functional during the detection of the identifier 6. In the retracted state, only one contact surface, for example for a fingernail or a Tool, in particular in the form of a projection, can be seen, since the rest of the identification object 11 is sunk in the slot.
- FIG. 19 also shows a variant of a sanitary insert 1 with an identification object 11 with the identification 6 that can be detached or folded out from the housing 2 and / or from the outlet side 4 the outlet side 4 pivotable.
- the user can more easily read the identification object 11, in particular in the installed state of the insert part 1, and / or remove the identification object 11 from the housing 2.
- the sanitary insert 1 thus remains functional during the detection of the identifier 6.
- the identification object 11 can, for example, be designed as a ring part.
- FIG. 20 shows a variant of a sanitary insert part 1 in which identification elements 7 are inserted into the outlet structure 5 as plug-in elements 12 in a specific pattern and / or a specific number based on a specific product shape.
- the plug-in elements 12 are not inserted here against the direction of flow from below, but with the direction of flow from above or inside.
- a passage opening 18 can also be closed here by a plug-in element 12, so that a filling 17 is formed.
- FIG. 21 shows a further exemplary embodiment according to the invention.
- Insert parts 1 in which different identifiers - shown by way of example as different hatchings - are formed in the form of color codes on the respective outlet structure 5.
- the inserts in the figure each show the marked section enlarged.
- the color codings are chosen so that they can be automatically detected and differentiated.
- color coding can also be formed on the housing 2.
