Abstract

A device for saving water refers to the drinking water supply, in particular to the nozzle taps to control water consumption and is designed to save water.

The device is a cylindrical nozzle on the faucet (in the kitchen or in the bathroom) with a channel for the flow of water. Inside the ball is installed with a hole drilled in it, driven by turning the lever outside the nozzle. The means for fastening to the faucet is made in the form of a screw fixing the position of the nozzle on the faucet.

The technical result consists in obtaining the possibility of saving water consumption by turning on / off the flow of water by simple movement without changing the temperature and increasing the flow of water.

For example, when brushing your teeth or washing dishes, the flow of water is stopped by pressing the lever. Pressing can be done with the fingers, edge or back of the hand. Thus, there is a saving of water. When the lever is returned to its original position, the flow of water is resumed at the same or lower head, while the water remains at the same temperature as the one set at the mixer.

The design is reliable, simple in device design, installation and use, does not require significant physical effort and additional electrical or other external costs. The device is compact, aesthetically favorable, industrially applicable, has a low cost. This contributes to the possibility of its widespread use and production, which will lead to a grand economy of water throughout the country.

Description

The technical field to which the utility model belongs.

A device for saving water refers to the drinking water supply, in particular to the nozzle taps to save tap water and is intended to regulate the flow of tap water during operation of the water fittings.

The level of technology

Known nozzle to the faucet, comprising a housing with inlet and outlet ports, a positive buoyancy valve connected to the stem, and a valve seat located across the body. The nozzle is equipped with a perforated partition installed in the outlet, made in the bottom of the housing, and the free end of the rod is passed through the hole of the perforated partition and placed under it (RF Patent 1813853).

The design of this nozzle provides a portion of the water supply, but it does not provide for stepwise, fixed flow control, depending on the desired mode of operation. In addition, for opening the valve with this nozzle requires a large force of pressing on the rod about 6-8 kilograms, due to the pressure drop of water acting on the valve.

It is also known a device for saving tap water (RF patent 2117114), comprising a housing with inlet and outlet openings and a horizontal partition, a metal rod with a retainer, passed through a horizontal partition and an outlet opening, the horizontal partition is made with openings; cylindrical recess, the lower part in contact through a rubber gasket with a cylindrical protrusion of the outlet of the housing. The housing is equipped with a device for fixing the rod for a continuous flow of water.

The disadvantages of this device are the splashing of water from the impact of the jet on the installed latch, the complexity of the design, the absence of stepwise adjustment of water flow, and the absence of modes, both small and large water flow, and therefore through this it is impossible to regulate water flow in a wide range water use regimes.

Closest to the claimed valve is a nozzle to save tap water [RF patent 2234630] The crane nozzle includes a housing with an outlet, a housing cover with screws for attaching to the housing, a rubber o-ring gasket between the housing and the cover, a clamp with screws for fixing the clamp to the housing cover, rubber ring gasket for sealing between the outlet nozzle of the mixer and the housing cover, the piston installed in the housing. Inside the body are made symmetrically located tides. To increase the flow of water in the tides vertical slots are made. The lower part of the body, having an outlet in the form of an inverted truncated cone, is a fitting for the possible installation of a hose. Through the outlet of the housing is missing a rod. The lower part of the stem also has a conical shape, and the upper part has the shape of a cylinder with cuts on the sides for moving between the tides of the hull, which simultaneously serve as guides. In the upper part of the stem grooves for increasing the flow of water. The case cover is fastened to the case with four screws. The inner part of the housing cover has a cylindrical shape for installation in it the outlet of the mixer. A rubber ring gasket is installed between the outlet nozzle of the mixer and the housing cover.

The device provides continuous water supply by using the configuration of the piston and the tides of the lower part of the body, with the ease of installation of the device in home and industrial conditions without reconstructing the mixers, ensuring the supply and closing of water without the use of rubber seals.

However, this nozzle does not provide stepwise regulation of water flow in a wide range of water use modes: there are no modes for continuous water supply at low and high flow rates, there is no possibility of quickly removing the nozzle to ensure maximum water consumption. Raising the piston up is difficult due to its developed cross-section. In addition, the design is complex, unreliable in operation. Requires precise adjustment of the piston in the lower position, in which the overlap of water without the use of rubber seals. In case of ingress of dirt, rust the nozzle will constantly leak.

Disclosure of the utility model.

The presented water saving device is as simple and effective as possible. Simplicity lies in its design and its use.

A device for saving water is a cylindrical nozzle on the faucet (in the kitchen or in the bathroom). Inside the ball is installed with a drilled hole for the flow of water, driven by turning the lever outside the nozzle.

The technical result is expressed in reducing the consumption of tap water.

According to the water saving device utility model, a cylindrical nozzle on a household water tap is attached to the faucet with a screw clamp, characterized in that a ball with a drilled hole for water flow is installed inside, activated by turning the lever outside the nozzle, resulting in there is an overlap or renewal of water flow, depending on the need for its consumption.

When using, for example, when brushing teeth or washing dishes, the flow of water is stopped by pressing the lever near the tap outlet. Pressing can be done with the fingers, edge or back of the hand, which is very convenient. Thus, there is a saving of water. When the lever is returned to its original position, the flow of water is resumed at the same or lower head, while the water remains at the same temperature as the one set at the mixer.

The means of attachment to the faucet is made in the form of a quick-release connection with a screw clamp.

The design is reliable, simple in device, installation and application, does not require significant physical effort and additional electrical or other external costs. Thus, the device is compact, aesthetically favorable, industrially applicable.

Brief description of the drawings.

Figure 1. Position "open". The device for saving water is a cylindrical case of the device (1), with a ball (5) located in it, driven by a lever (4). Water from the tap entering the device passes through the water inlet (2), drilled in a ball and passes through the device. The device is fastened by tightening the screw (3), fixing the nozzle on the crane.

Figure 2. Position "Closed". The device for saving water is a cylindrical case of the device (1), with a ball (5) located in it, driven by a lever (4). Water from the tap entering the device is retained in it and does not pass through the inlet for water flow (2), since it is turned perpendicular to the direction of water flow. The device is fastened by tightening the screw (3), fixing the nozzle on the crane.

Implementation of the utility model

The water saving device is a cylindrical nozzle 1 attached to a faucet using a screw clamp 3 on a household water faucet, with a ball 5 installed inside, having a drilled hole for water flow 2, actuated by turning the lever 4 outside the nozzle, resulting in overlap or the resumption of the flow of water, depending on the need for its consumption, which saves tap water consumption. The simplicity of design and use, low cost and compactness of the device contributes to the possibility of its wide application and production both in the form of nozzles on the crane, and as part of mixers, which in turn will lead to a grand economy of water throughout the country.
