Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a water-saving device for water closets with a lifting handle actuator for discharge of an optional amount of water, comprising actuator means fixed to the lifting rod and mobile in relationship to each other.
  • This kind of device is known from FR, Al , 2 609 297, where the flushing is controlled by a concentric tube mounted around a rod.
  • the rod and tube are connected with a valve and mobile in relationship to each other.
  • the tube is conncected to an actuation flange.
  • the valve opening is limited (d) , and a partial flush is discharged.
  • the knob causes the rod to open the valve more (D) , thereby discharging a full flush.
  • 211 510 a flushing device for flush- ing different amounts of water is known, where the lift is limited by a leverarm engaging the lifting rod bene ⁇ ath the push-button, and a full flush is obtained by pushing the push-button.
  • the object of this invention is' to show a cheaper and more simple lifting-device, for optional flushing, which can be mounted on an ordinary lifting rod, found in water closets with a lifting handle actuator.
  • a lifting device including a cup-shaped part screwed onto the lifting rod, the cup- shaped part having an actuation-flange, an internally mounted push-button affected by a spring to repel the cup-shaped part's bottom from the push-button, and push-elements mounted through holes and adjustably fixed to the push-button.
  • the obtained unit is screwed onto the lifting rod of an ordinary water closet after the removal of the normal actuator-button.
  • the cup-shaped part's bottom is supported by a fixed support on the toilet .
  • the push-button When flushing, the push-button is pushed (e.g. with the thumb) and the cup-shaped part's flange is lifted and pressed up against the push button.
  • the push- elements stay in their position supported against the toilet.
  • the lifting rod is raised to a height limited by the push-elements.
  • the button is held in this posi ⁇ tion for as long as a partial flush is wanted.
  • the push-elements will be in the form of screws, mount ⁇ ed through holes in the cup-shaped part and screwed into the bottom of the push-button.
  • the amount of water to be used when using the partial flush is adjustable by changing the length screwed into the push-button.
  • the screws are sunkscrews, which are sunk into an lie against the bottom of the cup-shaped part when the push-button is in passive position.
  • the push-button is situated inside the cup-shaped part fixed by the pressure of the spring and the sunkscrews sunk into the cup-shaped part.
  • the screws make it possible to adjust the amount of water to be discharged during a partial flush, and the screwheads are supported by a fixed support on the toilet .
  • the spring is supported by a recess situat ⁇ ed in the central part of the cup-shaped part, and an axial recess in the push-button (5). This means that the actuator is very sturdy.

  • the screwheads (8) are supported by a fixed support (9) on the toilet when the push-button (5) and the cup- shaped part (1) are pressed together, thereby lifting the cup-shaped part (1) and the lifting rod (3) a limi ⁇ ted distance. In fig. 3, the cup-shaped part is pulled so that the lifting rod (3) activates a full flush.

Abstract

Le dispositif économiseur d'eau selon l'invention permet d'économisr un certain volume d'eau pendant le fonctionnement de la chasse d'eau. Ledit dispositif économiseur d'eau présente un bouton-poussoir (5), fixé dans une pièce sphérique (1), à l'intérieur duquel sont montés des éléments poussoirs (4) réglables, un ressort étant prévu entre la pièce sphérique (1) et le bouton-poussoir (5). La pièce sphérique (1) comprend un élément de raccord (2) pour la tige de levage (3), et les extrémités des éléments poussoirs (4) sont supportés par un support fixe (9) monté sur les toilettes. Lorsque la chasse d'eau est actionnée, le bouton-poussoir (5) et la pièce sphérique (1) sont comprimés l'un contre l'autre, ce qui limite le mouvement de la tige de levage, ce mouvement pouvant être ajusté par des filetages (6) sur les éléments poussoirs (4). Le volume d'eau déchargé dépend du temps d'actionnement et du réglage des éléments poussoirs (4).
