SECURITY TAP

DESCRIPTION

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present specification refers to a safety tap whose main function is to prevent water overflow in bathtubs, swimming pools or any other container of liquid capable of overflowing.

The tap has a double safety system, both to prevent overflow and to prevent water loss due to accident or negligence.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention has its application within the auxiliary industry of industrial and domestic sanitation.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

At present, the existence of many devices to prevent the overflow of water in different media is known.

Most of them refer to buoys that cut the water supply when a certain height of the same level is reached and always referred to the cut in the main supply pipe. This is the case of toilet tanks.

It is also common as a safety element that the opening of the mixer taps is carried out in an anti-gravity direction to prevent error or wear of the closing mechanism, the tap can be accidentally opened.

But on the part of the inventor it is not known the existence of any double safety mechanism incorporated into the same tap that provides the advantages of this embodiment.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

The present specification refers to a safety tap whose main function is to prevent water overflow in bathtubs, swimming pools or any other container of liquid capable of overflowing.

The tap has a double safety system, both to prevent overflow and to prevent water loss due to accident or negligence.

In particular, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the safety tap is constituted by a tap formed by three parts, the tap body (1), the tap neck (2) constituted by a "U" shaped tube. inverted and ending in an outlet diffuser (3) of the water, always located more outside the vertical of the opening / closing mono-control.

In the body of the tap (1) the insertion of a mono-control lever (4) of opening / closing of the water, consisting of a piece that comes out horizontally of the body of the body can be seen

tap (1) that is incurred vertically downward to incur the situation

3

horizontal again and that in the middle part of this horizontal section has a hole (6) to allow the passage of a screw (7) that will hold a float (8) located below this piece.

5 The float (8) will be located so that when the water level passes

certain safety height push up the mono-control lever that will close the water flow until the water level reaches its maximum height (11) at which time the mono-control lever (4) reaches the closed position

10 The single-lever lever (4) moves with vertical movement and opening towards

below, in the sense of gravity.

The tap body (1) has a notch (9) located below the insertion of the mono-control lever (4) and which coincides in height with another notch (5) located on the lever

15 mono-control (4) and which by means of a brake fork (10) immobilizes the mono-control lever in the closed position and prevents accidental opening of the lever either by involuntary manipulation or by wear of the internal system closing mechanism lock housed in the tap body (1)

2 0 Describe sufficiently the nature of the invention, as well as the manner of

put into practice, it should be noted that the provisions indicated above and represented in the attached drawings are subject to modifications in detail as long as they do not alter their fundamental principles, established in the preceding paragraphs and summarized in the following claims.

Claims (1)

1a.- Safety tap characterized by being constituted by three parts, the body of the tap (1), the neck of the tap (2) constituted by an inverted “U” shaped tube that ends in an outlet diffuser ( 3) and characterized in that in the body of the tap (1) the insertion of a mono-control lever (4) of opening / closing of the water is appreciated, constituted by a piece that comes out horizontally from the body of the tap (1) that is incurred in a vertical downward direction to incur the horizontal situation again and that in the middle part of this horizontal section it presents a hole (6) to allow the passage of a screw (7) that will hold a float (8) located below it piece and where the mono-control lever (4) moves with vertical movement and opening downwards, in the direction of gravity. 2a.- Safety tap of those constituted by three parts, the tap body (1), the tap neck (2) constituted by an inverted “U” shaped tube that ends in a 15 outlet diffuser (3 ) according to the first claim and characterized in that the float (8) will be located so that when the water level passes a certain safety height, it pushes up the mono-control lever that will close the water flow until the water level reaches its maximum height (11) moment in e! which single-lever lever (4) will reach the closed position twenty 3a.- Safety tap consisting of three parts, the tap body (1), the tap neck (2) consisting of an inverted “U” shaped tube that ends in an outlet diffuser (3) according to the 1st claim and characterized in that the tap body (1) has a notch (9) located below the insertion of the mono-control lever 25 (4) and which coincides in height with another notch (5) located in the mono-control lever (4) and which by means of a brake fork (10) immobilizes the single-lever lever in the closed position.
