Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the delivery of water in sanitary systems and in particular regards the delivery of water in shower units.
  • the showers fixed to the wall receive water from a distribution network which is usually a tube inserted inside the wall and has tap controls for hot and cold water or a mixer placed near or away from the shower unit.
  • Latch showers and telephone-type showers usually receive water through a flexible pipe which is attached to taps or to mixers.
  • the aim of the present invention is to supply a water delivery unit for sanitary systems which has more functions seeing that it includes a wall shower which is movable in height, at least one manual telephone-type shower as well as a free delivery mouth for the water, all the functions being fed through a single conduit which can be attached to a thermostatic tap or to a water mixer or to another possibly centralized intercepting system and through a distributor switch.
  • Another aim of the invention is to supply a shower unit for the delivery of water in which at least one shower, namely the highest wall one and the distributor switch are fitted to a tube which can be guided and moved upwards and also funtions as a conduit for the water or as a housing for a water conduit and in which the thermostatic tap can be placed either away from the unit or along said tube.
  • the here proposed unit essentially has a wall shower (10) and at least a manual telephone-type shower (11) each of which is fed by a thermostatic tap (12) - or a mixer or other intercepting means - through a distributor switch (13) having a free delivery mouth (14) for the water in a bath tub.
  • said distributor switch (13) has a water inlet passage (15) which connects to the tap (12) through a flexible pipe (15a), a first water outlet passage (16) and at least a second water outlet passage (17) in another direction in respect to the first.
  • the wall shower (10) is articulated to the top of a verticle tube (19) through a sealed joint (18), said verticle tube being guided and positionable along a support (20).
  • Said support (20) is integral to the tap (12) which is connected to the water distribution pipes which extend inside the wall.
  • the lower end of the tube (19) is connected to the first water outlet passage (16) of the distributor switch (13); the second outlet passage (17) of the distributor switch (13) is connected to a flexible pipe (17a) the end of which is fitted with the manual shower (11) which rests on a fork (13a) integral to said distributor switch.
  • the thermostatic tap (12) - mixer or other - is placed along the verticle tube (19); the wall shower (10) is at the top of said verticle tube; the distributor switch (13) with the delivery mouth (14) and manual shower (11) is applied to the lower end of said verticle tube.
  • the tube (19) forms a conduit for sending the water to the upper shower (10) and is vertically positionable, in the form of a latch, on the support (20) and relatively to the tap (12) in order to vary the height of the upper shower and concordantly of the water delivery mouth (14) at the height of the distributor switch (13).
  • the wall shower (10) and the distributor switch (13) with a delivery mouth (14) and manual shower (11) are again respectively applied to the upper and lower ends of the verticle tube (19), but the tap (12) is placed away from said tube (19) and this tube is guided and positionable on a support (20a) which is fixed to the wall.
  • the water can then be sent by the distributor switch (13) to the upper shower (10) through a possibly flexible pipe (19a), extending in said tube as shown in Fig. 1 instead of directly through the verticle tube (19).
  • the guide support (20) of the tube (19) has a coupling element (21), friction rings (22) placed in said element and enclosing the tube, a thrust ring nut (23) also enclosing the tube and resting on one of said rings through a conic coupling and a blocking/unblocking handle (24) for the tube by means of said ring nut as shown in Figs. 3 and 5.
  • the support (20) is concealed by a covering or case (25) leaving only the handle (24) free.
  • the distributor switch (13), (Figs. 6, 7, 8 and 9), it has a body (26) which includes the above mentioned water delivery mouth (14), an inlet passage (15) and outlet passages (16, 17). Said body (26) is fitted with a push button switch (27) and a rotating distributor in suitable openings.
  • the push button switch (27) is manually movable in two positions, it has a shutter (29) and is canalized in order to selectively join the inlet passage (15) for the water coming from the tap (12) to the delivery mouth (14) or with the opening of the distributor. In a first position (Fig. 6), the switch permits water to be sent to the delivery mouth (14) whilst excluding the water to be sent to the showers (10, 11).
  • the switch (27) permits the delivery mouth (14) to be excluded and to send water towards the distributor (28).
  • this appropriately canalized distributor is opportunely rotated, it permits water to be sent to both the wall shower (10) and the manual shower (11), (Fig. 7), or only to the wall shower (10), (Fig. 8), or only to the manual shower (11), (Fig. 9) on the arrows indicated.
  • the described unit is therefore suitable to be used in shower cubicles, bath tubs and public showers such as in swimming pools or other sport centres with the possibility of distributing the water at different heights and in various forms.
  • the unit can also have a third grip at the height of a distributor switch for another possible shower distributor.
  • the manual shower (11) can be connected to the end of the relative flexible pipe (11a) through a rotating union (30), (Fig. 10) which has a flow adjuster and a possible filter and unidirectional valve (31).
  • the rotating union (30) has a first threaded connection (32) which is fixed to the flexible pipe (17a) through a ring nut (33) on one side and a second threaded connection (34) which screws to the shower body (11) on the other side.
  • This second connection has a transversal pierced side (35) and this side has a pierced neck (36) in its centre which axially couples and can rotate with the first connection (32) so as to permit the shower body to rotate in relation to the flexible pipe.
  • a rotating adjustable ring nut (37) having a central oval-shaped countersunk hole (38) is inserted and sealed between the first connection (32) and the second connection (34).
  • Said ring nut either obstructs or frees each or all the holes of the transversal side (35) of the second connection.
  • Said ring nut either obstructs or frees each or all the holes of the transversal side (35) of the second connection.
  • the periphery of the second connection can be marked with a scale and the adjustable ring nut can be marked with a reference index showing the positions of said ring nut and of the capacity of water through the manual shower.
