Abstract

L'invention concerne une vanne de distribution d'eau comprenant une cartouche (3) équipée d'un passage (4) d'eau faisant communiquer le conduit d'entrée d'eau commun (17) avec le conduit de sortie de la baignoire (5); une ouverture (6) faisant communiquer ledit conduit (17) avec le conduit de sortie de la douche (18); et un obturateur (7) associé à une tige (8) poussée vers le haut par un ressort (9) d'extension actionné par un bouton-poussoir (10). Au repos, l'ouverture (6) est fermée et le passage (4) d'eau ouvert, dans une position de distribution à la baignoire. En appuyant sur le bouton-pressoir vers le bas, l'obturateur ferme le passage (4) et ouvre l'ouverture (6) afin que l'eau s'écoule vers la douche, alors que la pression du débit d'eau est suffisante pour compenser l'action du ressort. La tige est pourvue d'une partie inférieure cylindrique creuse (11) dont la cavité interne (12) définit ladite ouverture. L'obturateur (7) est constitué d'une saillie annulaire adaptée pour venir se loger dans deux sièges périphériques (13, 14) dont est pourvue la partie fixe de la cartouche.
