Abstract

PURPOSE: To form a holding device integrally with an equipment body by a method wherein a molded piece having an insert receiving part for a hand shower is mounted on a housing part from which a cut-off valve is protruded. CONSTITUTION: A molded piece 3 having an insert receiving part for a hand shower is attached on the opposite side to a user on a housing part 21, from which a cutoff valve 2 is protruded, between an equipment body 11 and a regulation grip 4 to hold a hand shower 5. A hole 301 formed in a conical shape in a tangential line direction and having a vertical slit 302 slightly wider than the diameter of a hose tube 55 is formed in a molded piece 3. After the conical adapter part of the hand shower 5 is pulled out from the hole 301, the hose tube 55 can be easily let off of the slit 302.

2. Description of the Prior Art Devices of this type are described in German patent specification No. 2
Known from 711798. In the case of this known device,
The retainer is mounted on a union nut that connects to the water supply network. The union nuts for connecting to the hot and cold water supply grids are then arranged in a location visible to the user of the installed faucet. Such measures are often perceived as unfavorable, especially aesthetically. Therefore, a mixed faucet in which a connecting nut is made invisible is gradually used.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The problem underlying the present invention is therefore an improvement of the holding device according to the preamble of claim 1, which device is particularly suitable for exposure sanitary and closed sanitary installations. It is to be configured so that it can be integrated with the equipment body.

[0004]

According to the present invention, this problem has been solved as follows. That is, between the equipment body and the adjusting grip, a molded piece having a plug-in receptacle for a hand shower is mounted on the protruding housing part of the shut-off valve. Other configurations of the present invention are described in claims 2-9.

[0005]

The effects achievable by the present invention are particularly as follows. That is, the holding device can be integrated into the sanitary / water supply facility by simple means, regardless of the connection of the water pipe to the water supply network. In the case of the concealment facility as well, since the shutoff valve having the housing portion and the grip piece projects from the housing wall, the holding device is
It can be used in any case of exposure equipment. In that case, only this standard shut-off valve (upper part) is needed. This standard shut-off valve is often used in sanitary facilities for water volume control, especially in thermostatically controlled mixing faucets.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
For the sake of simplicity, equal parts or corresponding parts of the two illustrated embodiments are respectively provided with the same reference numerals.

FIG. 1 shows a thermostatically controlled mixing faucet 1. This mixed faucet 1 is connected to a water supply pipe system at a building wall via a cold water connection 12 and a hot water connection 13. The temperature of the mixed water generated in the mixed faucet 1 is adjusted via the temperature selection grip 40. The outflow amount can be determined by the adjusting grip 4.
In that case, it is possible to select whether to let the mixed water flow out directly from the faucet 14 via the changeover switch or to flow out from the hand shower via the hose pipe 55. Mixing adjustment device adjustable by the temperature selection grip 40, adjustment grip 4
The shut-off valve 2 and the changeover switch 15 which can be operated with are arranged in the equipment body 11. For holding the hand shower 5, a molding piece 3 is arranged between the adjusting grip 4 and the equipment body 11 in the housing part 21 of the shut-off valve 2, which also projects from the equipment body 11. This molded piece 3
Has a bayonet receptacle 30 at the outer region located on the side opposite the user, as can be seen in particular in FIGS. 2 and 3. The insert 30 is in this case a conical, longitudinal slit 3 formed tangentially in the molding piece.
It is formed by a hole 301 having 02. Since the vertical slit 302 is formed slightly wider than the diameter of the hose pipe 55, the hose pipe 55 can be pulled out from the slit 302 after the conical adapter portion of the hand shower 5 is pulled out from the hole 301. The molding piece 3 conforms to the contours of the adjusting grip 4 and the equipment body 11, and is preferably made of injection-molded plastic.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the molding piece 3 is arranged concentrically with the hole 31 on the housing part 21. The housing part 21 projects from the equipment body 11. The shut-off valve 2 (upper part) has a housing part 21 screwed into the equipment body 11 via a thread. A valve stem 2 which is mounted concentrically in the housing part 21.
Via 2, the valve head is brought into the closed or open position by a pivoting movement in the equipment body 11. Shut-off valves of this kind are known and can be mass-produced. A snap bush 23 is arranged in the projecting end area of the valve stem 22 via grooved teeth. Since the molded piece 3 is fixed in the axial direction, the end side of the molded piece 3 is in contact with the end surface 231 of the snap bush 23 concentrically with the hole 31. Snap bush 23
Is fixed to the valve stem 22 via fixing screws 25 for axial fixing. Snap bush 23
The adjusting grip 4 is held by the tongue-shaped snap 233 and the groove-shaped teeth in such a way that it cannot rotate and is axially immovable. At the insertion position, the adjusting grip 4 has the protruding portion 41 having a reduced outer diameter fitted into the guide hole 32 of the molding piece 3. For this reason, the grip 4 is coupled so as not to rotate the valve stem 22 and supported in the guide hole 32. A protrusion 33 is additionally formed in parallel with the hole 31 on the end of the molded piece facing the adjusting grip 4. This protrusion fits into a corresponding opening in the end wall of the equipment body 11 in the inserted position,
This creates a non-rotatable connection between the equipment body 11 and the molding piece 3. When the plurality of receiving holes are formed on the pitch circle on the end side of the equipment body 11, the molding piece 3 is selectively fixed to the equipment body 11 via the protrusions 33 at different pivot positions. Instead of the protrusion 33, a single or a plurality of fixing screws may be used to hold the molded piece 3 axially at the equipment body 11.

In the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, a molded piece 3 having another structure is used. In this case, the molded piece 3 is
Unlike the stepped hole 31 of FIG. 2, it has a cylindrical hole 31,
Groove-shaped teeth 241 are formed on the wall portion. Mixed faucet 1
A polygonal portion, for example, a hexagonal portion 210, projects from the housing portion 11 that projects laterally from the housing portion 11. A bush 24 having a corresponding inner hexagonal hole is non-rotatably inserted in this hexagonal portion. A snap bush 23 is non-rotatably arranged on the front end portion of the valve stem 22 via a fixing screw 25. In this case, the snap bush 23 axially fixes the bush 24 at the insertion position on the inner end side. In this manner, the bush 24, which is axially and non-rotatably connected to the shutoff valve 2, includes:
The molding piece 3 is fitted through the groove-shaped teeth 241.
Therefore, it is non-rotatably connected to the equipment body 11 in the housing part 21 via the bush 24. Due to the comparatively fine groove-shaped teeth 241, the molding piece 3 is made into the mixed faucet 1
It can be located at various pivot positions with respect to.

The adjusting grip 4 includes a snap bush 23.
Is non-rotatably arranged via groove-shaped teeth and is axially held by a tongue snap 233. At the insertion position, the projection 41 of the adjusting grip 4 is also inserted into the guide hole 32, and the molding piece 3 is axially fixed at the insertion position.
