Definitions

  • the invention relates to an actuating device for actuating at least two valves in a valve arrangement.
  • the invention relates to a further actuating device for actuating at least two valves of a valve arrangement, each having an actuating element for opening a respective one of the at least two valves, with the valves each being designed to be self-closing.
  • the first-mentioned actuating device can also be designed with these features.
  • Such actuating devices are already known per se in the prior art and are used in particular to switch various waterways on and off by means of the valves. Such a task arises, for example, in shower rooms, where various shower outlets of a sanitary fitting are to be supplied with water by means of an actuating device as explained at the outset.
  • the invention is based on the object of enabling improved handling or actuation of valves of a valve arrangement which, on the one hand, is user-friendly and, on the other hand, complies with the statutory or normative specifications.
  • the features of claim 1 are provided according to the invention in an actuating device.
  • the invention thus solves the problem proposed in an actuating device of the type mentioned that by actuating one of the at least two valves in an actuating device, a blocking element of the actuating device can be moved into a blocking position. Furthermore, it is proposed that an actuation of at least one, but preferably all the others, of the at least two valves is blocked as soon as the blocking element is in the blocking position.
  • the actuating device can preferably be configured as a manual device that can be actuated manually.
  • the blocking element on the other hand, can be composed of several parts (in the simplest case two) blocking parts. As a result, the blocking element on each of the valves can be individually subdivided or separable, for example in order to block adjacent valves in each case.
  • the advantage of such an embodiment is that the actuating device can reliably prevent a plurality of the valves from opening at the same time.
  • a blocking element can be moved into different blocking positions, wherein in each of these blocking positions one of the valves of the valve arrangement can still be actuated, i.e. in particular opened, while at least one, but preferably all the remaining valves of the valve arrangement are currently blocked in this blocking position and therefore cannot be actuated or opened.
  • the same then applies analogously to the other possible blocking pitches, the number of possible blocking pitches naturally increasing with the number of valves in the valve arrangement.
  • the object can also be achieved by further advantageous embodiments according to the dependent claims.
  • At least one blocking part of the blocking element can be configured as a sliding part and/or can be displaced into the blocking position.
  • At least one locking part of the locking element is designed as a pivoting part and/or can be pivoted into the locking position.
  • the at least one pivoting part can be mounted in particular in such a way that it can pivot on a circular path.
  • the invention also proposes an actuating device that is designed for a valve arrangement with at least three valves.
  • the blocking element has at least two blocking parts, which can be displaced into a respective blocking position by a respective actuation of a respective one of the at least three valves. It is also provided here that an actuation of at least one, but preferably all the others, of the at least three valves is blocked as soon as one of the blocking parts is in its blocking position.
  • actuation of one of the valves of the valve assembly can cause that valve to open. In this way it can be achieved in particular that a flow of water can flow through the open valve from a common inlet which supplies all valves.
  • each of the at least two valves by means of the actuator ie in particular by means of associated respective Actuator elements, individually opened, preferably and closed, can be.
  • each of the at least two valves can be blocked by means of the blocking element. This can preferably be done in such a way that each of the at least two valves can be blocked by means of each of the at least two blocking parts.
  • this blocked valve can thus be prevented from being opened by actuating the actuating element belonging to this valve. In this way it can be achieved that only one of the valves can be opened at any given time, i.e. in particular actuated by a user. Because opening one of the valves causes a blockage of all the other valves, specifically by means of the blocking element.
  • the blocking of the non-actuated valves of the valve arrangement can be canceled or can be canceled by closing a valve of the valve arrangement that is currently open.
  • the blocking element ie in particular the blocking parts
  • the blocking element can be movable in a direction of blocking movement into the (respective) blocking position.
  • this direction of locking movement can run transversely to the direction of actuation, ie in particular to a respective direction of actuation in which the actuation elements of the actuation device can be actuated.
  • the valves can be opened by means of respective actuators and that the actuators, the blocking element, ie in particular move (either push or pivot) at least one respective locking part of the locking element into the locking position.
  • the actuating elements can be designed, for example, as a push button. When the actuating elements are pressed, they pivot or move a respective associated blocking part of the blocking element.
  • a respective deflection element for example in the form of an inclined surface, is formed on each of the actuating elements.
  • This deflection element can in each case convert a linear actuation of the respective actuation element in the actuation direction (for example pressing) into a respective blocking movement of at least one of the blocking parts.
  • the blocking movement of one of the blocking parts can be transferred to the other of the blocking parts of the blocking element, for example by the blocking part actuated with the actuating element pushing or pivoting the other blocking parts.
  • a respective blocking part which is currently being actuated via an actuating element, then actuates the other blocking parts.
  • a situation can arise in which, for example, when one of the valves in the middle is actuated, the blocking movements of at least two of the blocking parts take place in opposite directions, namely, for example, when the actuating element associated with the valve presses the two blocking parts apart.
  • a situation can also arise in which when an outermost valve (i.e. a valve which is arranged in an outer position of the valve arrangement) is actuated, the blocking movements of all blocking parts take place in the same direction (e.g. all blocking parts move from left to right, since the leftmost blocking part also moves from left to right moves), in particular due to an actuation by one of the actuating elements.
  • all locking parts can be designed with the same shape and/or all actuating elements with the same shape, which means that manufacturing costs can be saved.
  • a further embodiment provides that the blocking parts can each be moved in two blocking pitches, which are used to block a respective adjacent valve.
  • a blocking part can block, for example, a valve to the left of the blocking part and another valve to the right of the blocking part, specifically by moving to the left or to the right. The same applies analogously to pivoting a blocking part clockwise or counterclockwise.
  • the actuating elements can, for example, each be guided linearly, so that movements of the actuating elements transverse to the direction of actuation are excluded.
  • the blocking element i.e. in particular the at least two blocking parts of the blocking element, are also guided linearly, so that movements of the blocking parts or the blocking element in the actuating direction are precisely excluded. This is possible with locking sliding parts as well as locking pivoting parts.
  • the aforementioned configurations can in particular ensure that all valves are blocked by means of the blocking element when any two of the actuating elements are actuated simultaneously. In this way it can be achieved that two valves are not opened at the same time be able. It is preferred here if the blocking element establishes an operative connection between the actuating elements. This can therefore mean that the blocking element transmits blocking forces, which emanate from one of the actuating elements, to the other actuating elements, for example in order to keep these other actuating elements in a respective blocking position.
  • a further possible embodiment provides that the actuating elements, mediated by respective associated intermediate elements, only actuate a respective actuating element, which is designed to open the respective valve, from a second section of an actuating movement.
  • the actuating elements can be relatively displaceable in relation to the respective associated intermediate element in a first section of the actuating movement. This can ensure that the other valves are blocked during the first section of the actuating movement, i.e. even before a valve to be opened is opened by the actuating movement of one of the actuating elements (which only occurs in a second section of the
  • actuating movement can happen).
  • a respective actuation element and the associated intermediate element can thus move together.
  • a respective driver can be formed on each actuating element, for example, which takes the intermediate element with it from the second section of the actuating movement and thus actuates it.
  • the blocking parts of the blocking element provides that the at least two blocking parts touch each other (at least temporarily in certain positions) and can thus be actuated, for example when one of the blocking parts moves into a respective blocking position is shifted or panned or moved.
  • provision can also be made for the locking parts to reach through the actuating elements, in particular in such a way that the locking parts can just touch one another.
  • the at least two locking parts can each be guided in a guide along the locking movement direction.
  • This guide can be formed straight from the actuators.
  • the guide can continue to allow displacement of the actuating elements in the direction of actuation relative to the respective blocking part, for example if the guide in the direction of actuation is longer than the height of the blocking parts.
  • a further actuating device for actuating at least two valves of a valve arrangement is proposed to solve the initially mentioned object, which can be configured as explained above.
  • this actuating device has an actuating element for opening each of the at least two valves, with the valves each being designed to be self-closing.
  • This actuating device can in particular be designed as already described above or according to one of the claims directed to an actuating device.
  • Actuating device has a holding mechanism with which the valves can be held individually in a respective open position.
  • the holding mechanism can have a separate release element, which is characterized in that the release element can release each of the valves by means of a release movement.
  • Configurations are also possible in which the release element can be actuated with each of the actuating elements for the release movement (ie up to a release position), so that in this case the release element does not have to be actuated itself.
  • the holding mechanism (22) can be released with the, preferably with each of the, actuating elements (which serve to open a respective valve).
  • the holding mechanism can in particular be configured such that by actuating one of the actuating elements of a valve which is still closed, a valve which is currently being held in the open position by the holding mechanism can be released. By releasing the open valve can close automatically.
  • the actuation that triggered the release can transfer the valve, which was previously still closed, into the open position in order to be held there again by the holding mechanism.
  • a holding mechanism By such a holding mechanism according to the invention can thus be achieved that one of the valves, which is currently being held in the open position by the holding mechanism, by actuating another, just closed valve and / or by means of the release element, ie more precisely by means of the release movement of the release element.
  • This allows the valve to move automatically from the open position to a closed position due to the fact that the valves are each self-closing are trained.
  • Corresponding restoring elements for example in the form of compression springs, can be provided for this purpose, which bring about the automatic closing.
  • said release element If said release element is in a release position, it can act on the holding mechanism in such a way that it releases the valve held in the open position to automatically return to a closed position.
  • valves can be held in a respective open position by means of at least one locking element of the holding mechanism.
  • valves can be held in the respective open position by means of respective locking elements of the holding mechanism.
  • locking elements are designed in a variety of ways, with a variety of exemplary embodiments being known in the prior art.
  • the at least one locking element can either be configured as a sliding part and/or can be moved into a locking position, or the at least one locking element can be configured as a pivoting part and/or can be pivoted into a locking position. In the second alternative, the at least one locking element can be pivoted, for example, on a circular path.
  • a locking movement of the locking element (which conveys this into the locking position) can thus be a linear movement or a rotary movement. If several locking elements are designed, linear and rotary movements can also be used to lock the valves. At the end of its release movement, the release element, however, an actuation force from one of the
  • Transfer actuators to a locking element of a particular valve This can happen in particular when this particular valve is being held in the open position by the holding mechanism.
  • the release element can preferably transfer each of the designed locking elements from a respective locking position to a releasing position in which the associated valve is just released (and can thus automatically return to the closed position).
  • a possible embodiment provides that individual or each of the locking elements forms a self-locking pawl mechanism.
  • this pawl mechanism can have a pawl that can be deflected against the restoring force of a restoring element.
  • the pawl can also be brought into engagement with a rotatably mounted ratchet wheel of the ratchet mechanism by means of a return element.
  • the release element itself can also be deflected against the restoring force of a restoring element.
  • the release element has to be actuated manually in order to release one of the valves for automatic closing. It can thus be achieved that the release element returns automatically due to the restoring force in a return movement to a starting position in which the release element is at a distance from the locking elements, specifically as soon as this return movement is released.
  • the locking elements can preferably be arranged in a common plane. Furthermore, each of the locking elements can act on an associated valve via a respective form fit in order to lock this valve in the open position.
  • the at least one locking element can preferably be deflectable against the restoring force of a restoring element. In this case, the locking element must therefore be manually actuated in order to lock one of the valves in the open position.
  • both the blocking element and the release element can each be configured by means of at least one sliding part.
  • the at least one sliding part can be displaced in the locking plane by actuating one of the actuating elements in the actuating direction and/or the pivoting part can be pivoted in the locking plane by actuating one of the actuating elements in the actuating direction.
  • the respective sliding or pivoting part is actuated directly by one of the actuating elements in the locking plane.
  • the at least one sliding or pivoting part is mounted linearly, it is possible to prevent movements of the at least one sliding part in the direction of actuation, so that this type of movement is ruled out.
  • an actuation of at least one of the actuation elements is blocked as soon as the at least one sliding part of one of the actuation elements is arrested.
  • the at least one sliding or pivoting part can in particular block a respective reach-through window of the blocked actuating elements. If, on the other hand, the access window is released, the respective actuating element can be actuated through the access window in order to open an associated one of the valves of the valve arrangement.
  • valves of the valve arrangement can be, for example, as touch valves and/or self-closing, ie in particular by means of a respective reset element be updated, designed.
  • a touch valve can be understood to mean a valve which has a button as an actuating element for operating the valve. This button can then be actuated with one of the actuating elements.
  • valves of the valve arrangement can be arranged, for example, along a curve, in particular a circular line or an ellipse, or else along a straight line.
  • the arrangement on a circular line is appropriate, for example, if the blocking parts are designed as pivoting parts and/or if the release element is designed as a pivoting part.
  • the arrangement along a straight line makes sense if either the blocking parts are designed as sliding parts and/or the release element is designed as a sliding part.
  • the actuating elements can also each have their own restoring element. It can thereby be achieved that the respective confirmation element has to be actuated against the restoring force of the associated restoring element if the respectively assigned valve is to be opened. As a result, the respective actuating element returns automatically due to the restoring force to an initial position in which the associated valve is not actuated by the actuating element.
  • an actuating device as described above can be used particularly advantageously for actuating valves of a sanitary installation, in particular a shower and/or bath fitting. Therefore, to solve the problem, a sanitary installation, in particular a shower and/or bath fitting, with an actuating device according to one of the claims relating to an actuating device, as well as the use of an actuating device according to one of claims directed to an actuating device are proposed for such a sanitary installation.
