Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Handbrause, insbesondere zur Reinigung von Haaren, bei der das flüssige Reinigungsmittel, z. B. Wasser, aus den Düsen im Brausenkopf der Handbrause mit relativ großer Geschwindigkeit austritt.The invention relates to a hand shower, in particular for Cleaning of hair in which the liquid detergent, e.g. B. water, from the nozzles in the shower head Hand shower emerges at a relatively high speed.

Handbrausen sind nach dem Stand der Technik mit verschiedener Düsengestaltung bekannt.Hand showers are different according to the state of the art Nozzle design known.

Die DE 37 06 320 A1 gibt beispielsweise einen Brausenkopf an, der für das wahlweise Abgeben von Wasserstrahlen verschiedener Art vorgesehen ist. Der Brausenkopf weist eine Mehrzahl von paketartig in konzentrischer und zueinander koaxialer Anordnung zusammengefaßten ringzylindrischen Steuerungselementen auf, die miteinander eine Vielzahl von Durchlaßsöffnungen für die Abgabe von ebensovielen Wasserstrahlen definieren und begrenzen, und mindestens eines dieser Steuerungselemente von Hand um die gemeinsame Mittelachse der Gesamtanordnung von Steuerungselementen verdreht werden kann, um das durch eine Zufuhröffnung hindurch ankommende Wasser je nach der gewünschten Strahlform in Richtung auf mindestens eine der Durchlaßöffnungen umzulenken.DE 37 06 320 A1, for example, gives a shower head for the optional delivery of water jets various types is provided. The shower head points a plurality of parcel-like in concentric and with each other coaxial arrangement summarized ring-cylindrical Control elements that interact with each other of openings for the delivery of as much Define and limit water jets, and at least one of these controls by hand around the common central axis of the overall arrangement of control elements can be rotated through a feed opening water arriving through it depending on the desired Beam shape in the direction of at least one of the passage openings redirect.

Die DE 40 33 364 A1 gibt eine Handbrause mit integriertem Unterbrecher und variablem Duschstrahl an. Dabei weist der Bereich der Wasseraustrittsöffnungen im Kopfteil eine rechteckige Grundfläche auf. Mit einem Steuerteil im Kopfteil können die Austrittsöffnungen unterschiedlich weit geöffnet oder geschlossen werden.DE 40 33 364 A1 gives a hand shower with an integrated Interrupter and variable shower spray. The Area of the water outlet openings in the head part one rectangular base. With a control section in The headboard can have different openings be opened or closed wide.

Die FR-A-2313132 gibt eine Handbrause an, bei der das Wasser von einer axialen Wasserzuleitung zu einer radial angeordneten und im wesentlichen rechteckigen Austrittsöffnung gelangt. Koaxial zur Wasserzuleitung und zur Austrittsöffnung ist ein drehbarer Brausekopf angeordnet, der an seinem Umfang in Reihen verschieden große Strahlöffnungen aufweist. Je nach der Stellung des drehbaren Brausekopfes gegenüber der Austrittsöffnung werden unterschiedlich große Strahlöffnungen mit entsprechend unterschiedlicher Strahlintensität wirksam. Die einzelnen Wasserstrahlen treten dabei radial zur axialen Wasserzuleitung aus den Austrittsöffnungen der Handbrause aus.The FR-A-2313132 specifies a hand shower in which the Water from an axial water supply to a radial arranged and substantially rectangular outlet opening reached. Coaxial to the water supply and Outlet opening is a rotatable shower head, the jet openings of different sizes on its circumference in rows having. Depending on the position of the rotatable Shower head opposite the outlet opening will be different large jet openings with correspondingly different Beam intensity effective. The single ones Water jets occur radially to the axial water supply from the outlet openings of the hand shower.

Im wesentlichen weisen nach dem Stand der Technik alle Brauseköpfe konzentrische und flächig angeordnete Austrittsöffnungen auf, wobei die Gesamtfläche, in der die Austrittsöffnungen angeordnet sind, mehr oder weniger groß ist. In vielen Fällen kann zwischen einem sehr weichen Strahl und kreisförmig angeordneten Austrittsöffnungen für einen härteren Strahl gewählt werden. Der flächige Charakter des Wasserauslasses bleibt auch bei der letzteren Gestaltung erhalten.In essence, all of them are known in the art Shower heads concentric and flat outlet openings on, the total area in which the Outlet openings are arranged, more or less large is. In many cases, it can be very soft Jet and circularly arranged outlet openings for a harder jet can be chosen. The flat character the water outlet remains with the latter Get design.

Nachteilig bei den Lösungen des Standes der Technik ist, daß der Wasserverbrauch bei fast allen Brausen auch bei Verwendung von Wasserstopeinrichtungen relativ hoch ist.A disadvantage of the solutions of the prior art is that the water consumption of almost all showers also Use of water stop devices is relatively high.

Nach dem Stand der Technik sind auch Brauseeinrichtungen bekannt (z.B. DE-OS 30 44 310), die als sogenannte Ganzkörperduschen meist vertikale Rahmen aufweisen, in denen radial zum Innenraum der Duscheinrichtung gerichtete Austrittsöffnungen linear angeordnet sind.Shower devices are also state of the art known (e.g. DE-OS 30 44 310), the so-called whole-body showers usually have vertical frames in which directed radially to the interior of the shower device Outlet openings are arranged linearly.

Für industrielle Zwecke sind verschiedene Brausen mit linearer Anordnung der Austrittsöffnung bekannt, die meist den Zweck verfolgen, einen Flüssigkeitsvorhang zu erzeugen. Various showers are included for industrial purposes linear arrangement of the outlet opening known, mostly have the purpose of creating a liquid curtain.

So gibt die DE 93 12 334 U1 eine Kühlmittelbrause an, insbesondere für eine Werkzeugmaschine oder dergleichen mit einem Auslaßelement für das Kühlmittel, bei der die Auslaßöffnungen im wesentlichen reihenförmig angeordnet sind. Dabei verfolgt die Erfindung den Zweck ein bewegtes Werkzeug an jeder Stelle seines Einsatzortes ausreichend mit Kühlmittel zu versorgen.DE 93 12 334 U1 specifies a coolant spray, in particular for a machine tool or the like an outlet element for the coolant, in which the outlet openings are arranged essentially in rows. The invention pursues the purpose of a moving tool sufficient at every point of its location To supply coolant.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Handbrause, insbesondere zum Reinigen von Haaren, anzugeben, die den Wasserverbrauch bei gleichzeitiger Verbesserung des Reinigungseffektes wesentlich verringert. Die Handbrause soll auch für andere handwerkliche und industrielle Reinigungsaufgaben einsetzbar sein.The invention has for its object a hand shower, especially for cleaning hair, to specify the Water consumption while improving the cleaning effect significantly reduced. The hand shower should also for other manual and industrial cleaning tasks be applicable.

Die Erfindung löst die Aufgabe durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen 2 bis 7 gekennzeichnet.The invention solves the problem by the characterizing Features of claim 1. Advantageous refinements are characterized in the subclaims 2 to 7.

Erfindungsgemäße Anwendungen der Handbrause sind im Anspruch 8 gekennzeichnet.Applications of the hand shower according to the invention are claimed 8 marked.

Der erfinderische Kern der vorgeschlagenen Lösung besteht darin, daß mittels einer Vielzahl linienförmig angeordneter Auslaßöffnungen, feine relativ harte Wasserstrahlen erzeugt werden, die kammartig über die jeweils zu reinigenden bzw. zu spülenden Bereiche der Haare bewegt werden. Dabei dringen die kammartig wirkenden feinen Wasserstrahlen mit hoher Geschwindigkeit tief in die Haarsträhnen ein und spülen, z. B. Seifenreste wirkungsvoll aus dem Haar aus.The inventive core of the proposed solution is in that by means of a large number of lines arranged Outlet openings, fine, relatively hard water jets are generated, which are comb-like over each to be cleaned or areas of the hair to be rinsed. The comb-like fine water jets penetrate deep into the strands of hair at high speed and rinse e.g. B. Soap residue effectively from the hair out.

Gegenüber dem Stand der Technik, bei dem eine erheblich größere Wassermenge relativ ungenutzt über die Haare hinwegläuft, ohne daß ein Großteil des Wassers beim Reinigungsprozeß effektiv genutzt wird, ist bei der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung das Wasser im wesentlichen vollständig am Reinigungsprozeß beteiligt. Die relativ geringe Wassermenge wird konzentriert linienartig wirkend mit hoher Effektivität für den Reinigungsprozeß genutzt.Compared to the prior art, which is a significant Larger amounts of water relatively unused through the hair runs away without much of the water in the cleaning process is effectively used in the invention Set up the water essentially completely involved in the cleaning process. The relatively small amount of water is concentrated with lines high effectiveness for the cleaning process.

Erfindungswesentlich ist, daß sich die einzelnen Wasserstrahlen nach dem Austritt aus den Austrittsöffnungen nicht miteinander vermischen sondern als einzelne Strahlen in die Haarsträhnen eindringen.
Voraussetzung dafür ist, daß die Austrittsöffnungen einen relativ geringen Durchmesser aufweisen und die Bohrungsform den austretenden Wasserstrahl nicht auffächert oder gar zerstäubt.It is essential to the invention that the individual water jets do not mix with one another after exiting the outlet openings but penetrate the hair strands as individual jets.
The prerequisite for this is that the outlet openings have a relatively small diameter and the shape of the bore does not fan out or even atomize the emerging water jet.

Die einzelnen Durchmesser und die Anzahl der Austrittsöffnungen werden vorteilhafterweise so gewählt, daß keine gesonderte Druckerzeugung erforderlich ist, sondern der übliche Leitungsdruck vom Wassernetz ausreichend ist.The individual diameters and the number of outlet openings are advantageously chosen so that none separate pressure generation is required, but the usual line pressure from the water network is sufficient.

Als praktikabel haben sich Austrittsöffnungen mit einem Durchmesser zwischen 0,3 bis 0,8 mm erwiesen.Outlet openings with a have been found to be practical Proved diameter between 0.3 to 0.8 mm.

Die erfindungsgemäße Handbrause hat sich bei der bevorzugten Anwendung im Friseurhandwerk in hervorragender Weise bewährt. Der Wasserverbrauch hat sich gegenüber Handduschen nach dem Stand der Technik, bei gleicher oder besserer Reinigungsleistung, auf bis zu 20% reduziert. Des weiteren ist es in vorteilhafter Weise möglich, ausschließlich einzelne Haarsträhnen oder Haarbereiche zu behandeln. Dabei wird gleichzeitig der entsprechende Kopfhautbereich in angenehmer Weise durch die feinen Wasserstrahlen massiert.The hand shower according to the invention has been preferred Excellent use in hairdressing proven. The water consumption has compared to hand showers according to the state of the art, with the same or better Cleaning performance, reduced to up to 20%. Of further it is advantageously possible exclusively individual strands or areas of hair to treat. At the same time, the corresponding one Scalp area in a pleasant way thanks to the fine Massaging water jets.

Da die einzelnen Wassernetze oft sehr unterschiedliche Drücke aufweisen, ist es vorteilhaft am Wassereintritt in die Handbrause eine auswechselbare oder einstellbare Drosseleinrichtung, z. B. eine Drosselscheibe, anzuordnen. Because the individual water networks are often very different Have pressures, it is advantageous at the water inlet in the hand shower is replaceable or adjustable Throttle device, e.g. B. to arrange a throttle disc.

Damit kann eine relativ stabile Wasseraustrittsgeschwindigkeit aus der Handbrause eingestellt werden. Der Wasserzulauf braucht dadurch nicht lange reguliert zu werden, sondern es genügt ein Auf/Zu-Wasserhahn um stets einen gewünschten gleichmäßigen Wasseraustritt zu erzielen.This allows a relatively stable water outlet velocity can be adjusted from the hand shower. The water inlet doesn't need to be regulated for long, instead, an open / closed tap is always enough for one to achieve the desired even water outlet.

Als besonders vorteilhaft hat sich die Anordnung der Austrittsöffnungen in zwei Reihen erwiesen. Es ist aber auch möglich, die Austrittsöffnungen in nur einer Reihe oder in drei bis fünf Reihen anzuordnen. Bei nur einer Reihe sollte der Wasserdurchlaß je Austrittsöffnung relativ erhöht werden. Bei vier und mehr Reihen geht der erfindungsgemäße Effekt langsam verloren und man nähert sich wieder dem Stand der Technik, bei dem das flächig auf die Haare aufgebrachte Wasser ohne die erwünschte erfinderische Wirkung über die Haare abläuft.The arrangement of the Evidence of openings in two rows. But it is also possible the outlet openings in just one row or to be arranged in three to five rows. With only one The water passage per outlet opening should be relative increase. With four and more rows, the effect slowly lost and approaching back to the state of the art, which is flat on the hair applied water without the desired inventive Effect runs through the hair.

Je nach dem konkreten Anwendungszweck kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn die Wasserzuführungen zu den einzelnen Reihen der Austrittsöffnungen einzeln absperrbar sind. Damit kann der Wasseraustritt wahlweise über eine oder mehrere Reihen reguliert werden. Auch ist es vorteilhaft, an der Handbrause ein Wasserstopventil und gegebenenfalls eine kaltwarm-Reguliereinrichtung vorzusehen.Depending on the specific application, it can be beneficial be when the water supplies to each row the outlet openings can be shut off individually. So that can the water outlet optionally over one or more rows be regulated. It is also advantageous to use the hand shower a water stop valve and, if necessary, a cold-warm regulating device to provide.

In der Praxis hat sich gezeigt, daß die als Haardusche konzipierte Handbrause sich in vorteilhafter Weise auch für andere Reinigungsaufgaben einsetzen läßt, wobei die wesentlichen Vorteile des geringen Wasserverbrauches bei hoher Reinigungsleistung in gleicher Weise eintreten.In practice it has been shown that as a hair shower designed hand shower in an advantageous manner too can be used for other cleaning tasks, the essential advantages of the low water consumption high cleaning performance occur in the same way.

So können z. B. Arbeitsplätze für Fleisch- oder Fischhändler, sowohl mit Oberflächen aus Holz, Stein oder Kunststoff, in einfacher Weise wirksam saubergehalten werden. Die mit hoher Geschwindigkeit auf die Oberfläche auftreffenden feinen Wasserstrahlen haben einen hohen Reinigungseffekt, ohne daß die Umgebung in unerwünschter Weise eingenäßt wird. Ein besonderer Vorteil besteht dabei darin, daß die feinen Wasserstrahlen in relativ geringer Entfernung vom Wasseraustritt ihre Geschwindigkeit durch die Wirkung der Atmosphäre verloren haben und somit nicht weit spritzen können. Die effektive Entfernung der Arbeitsoberfläche vom Wasseraustritt liegt zwischen wenigen Zentimetern und maximal zwanzig bis dreißig Zentimetern.So z. B. jobs for meat or fish traders, with surfaces made of wood, stone or plastic, effectively kept clean in a simple manner. Those hitting the surface at high speed fine water jets have a high cleaning effect, without the environment being undesirable is soaked. There is a particular advantage in that the fine water jets in relatively less Distance from the water outlet through their speed have lost the effect of the atmosphere and therefore not can spray far. The effective removal of the work surface the water outlet is between a few Centimeters and a maximum of twenty to thirty centimeters.

Auch im handwerklichen und industriellen Bereich können Abriebe, Stäube, Späne u.ä. vorteilhaft entfernt und abgespült werden.Also in the craft and industrial area Abrasion, dusts, chips, etc. advantageously removed and be rinsed off.

Dabei ist es auch möglich, statt Wasser spezielle Reinigungsmittel als Reinigungsflüssigkeit einzusetzen.It is also possible to use special cleaning agents instead of water use as cleaning liquid.

Die Erfindung soll nachstehend an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert werden.The invention is intended to be based on an exemplary embodiment are explained in more detail.

Die zugehörige Zeichnung zeigt in Figur 1 eine erfindungsgemäße Handbrause in Seitenansicht.The accompanying drawing shows an inventive one in FIG Side shower hand shower.

Figur 2 zeigt die Ansicht Z in Figur 1.
Figur 3 zeigt den Schnitt A-A in Figur 2.FIG. 2 shows the view Z in FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 shows the section AA in FIG. 2.

Das Ausführungsbeispiel wird anhand einer in üblicher Weise gestalteten Handbrause entsprechend Figur 1 mit einem Griff 1, einem Brausenkopf 2, aus der im Betrieb die einzelnen Wasserstrahlen 3 austreten, einem Schlauch 4, über den das Wasser in die Handbrause geleitet wird, und eine Schlauchverbindung 5, mittels der der Schlauch 4 an dem Griff 1 befestigt wird, beschrieben.The exemplary embodiment is based on a conventional Hand shower designed in accordance with Figure 1 a handle 1, a shower head 2, from which the individual water jets 3 emerge, a hose 4, through which the water is led into the hand shower, and a hose connection 5, by means of which the hose 4 the handle 1 is attached described.

Die eigentliche Erfindung ist in Figur 2 näher dargestellt. Der Brausenkopf 2 ist länglich ausgebildet und weist in zwei parallelen Reihen 6 und 7 die Austrittsöffnungen 8 auf. The actual invention is shown in more detail in Figure 2. The shower head 2 is elongated and has the outlet openings in two parallel rows 6 and 7 8 on.

Dabei sind die Austrittsöffnungen 8 innerhalb einer Reihe mit einem Abstand b zueinander angeordnet und die Austrittsöffnungen 8 der Reihe 6 gegenüber den Austrittsöffnungen 8 der Reihe 7 in dem Abstand b/2 versetzt. Es ist aber auch möglich, die Austrittsöffnungen 8 relativ zur Längsachse der Reihen 6 und 7 zueinander rechtwinklig in der gleichen Querachse anzuordnen.The outlet openings 8 are within a row arranged at a distance b from each other and the outlet openings 8 of the row 6 opposite the outlet openings 8 of the row 7 offset at the distance b / 2. It is but also possible, the outlet openings 8 relative to Longitudinal axis of rows 6 and 7 at right angles to each other in to arrange the same transverse axis.

Die Länge der Reihen 6 bzw. 7, mit den Austrittsöffnungen 8 richtet sich nach dem jeweiligen Bedarf und beträgt im Beispiel ca. 50 mm.The length of rows 6 and 7, with the outlet openings 8 depends on the respective need and is in Example approx. 50 mm.

Der Querschnitt der Austrittsöffnungen 8, wie er in Figur 3 erkennbar ist, entspricht einer zylindrischen Bohrung mit scharfen Kanten am Austritt des Wassers. Damit werden in der Praxis in exakter Weise geradlinig ausströmende Wasserstrahlen 3 erzielt, die sich nicht wesentlich aufweiten oder auseinanderstäuben. Im Beispiel ist eine gesonderte Düsenplatte 9 an dem Brausenkopf 2 angesetzt.The cross section of the outlet openings 8, as shown in FIG 3 can be seen, corresponds to a cylindrical bore with sharp edges at the water outlet. With that in practice flowing in a straight line Water jets 3 achieved that do not expand significantly or dust apart. In the example there is one separate nozzle plate 9 attached to the shower head 2.

Mit der Handbrause gemäß dem vorstehenden Ausführungsbeispiel wurde in der Erprobung wesentliche Einsparungen an Wasser erzielt. Während beim Einsatz von üblichen Handbrausen nach dem Stand der Technik für eine durchschnittliche Haarwäsche in einem Damensalon ca. 9 Liter Wasser verbraucht wurde, lag der Wasserverbrauch mit der erfindungsgemäßen Handdusche bei ca. 2 Liter. Von besonderem Vorteil ist dabei, daß z. B. nach dem Färben einzelner Haarsträhnen, diese separiert und intensiv ausgespült werden können, ohne daß andere Haarbereiche in unerwünschter Weise ebenfalls eingenäßt werden.With the hand shower according to the above embodiment became significant savings in testing achieved in water. While using conventional hand showers according to the state of the art for an average Hair wash in a women's salon approx. 9 liters of water was used, the water consumption was with the invention Hand shower at approx. 2 liters. Of special The advantage is that z. B. after coloring individual Strands of hair, separated and rinsed intensively can become undesirable without leaving other hair areas Way also be soaked.

Auch wurde von den einzelnen Personen, deren Haare einer Wäsche unterzogen wurde, betont, daß die feinen harten Wasserstrahlen eine angenehme Kopfhautmassage bewirken. Also, by individuals whose hair was one Laundry has been subjected to stresses that the fine hard Water jets bring about a pleasant scalp massage.

Die Erfindung ist selbstverständlich nicht auf das beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt. So ist es ohne weiteres möglich, die Reihen 6 und 7 in einem leichten Bogen auszuführen, so daß die Linie der Wasserstrahlen, bei einer handgerechten Neigung des Brausenkopfes 2 um ca. 45°, etwa der Rundung des menschlichen Kopfes entspricht. Insbesondere ist es auch möglich den Handgriff anders zu gestalten.The invention is of course not based on the described Embodiment limited. So it is without further possible, the rows 6 and 7 in one easy Arc so that the line of water jets, with a hand-inclined shower head 2 by approx. 45 °, roughly corresponds to the curvature of the human head. In particular, it is also possible to close the handle differently shape.

Zusätzlich kann in bekannter Weise am Griff 1 auch ein Wasserstopventil oder ein kalt-warm-Mischventil vorhanden sein.In addition, in a known manner on the handle 1 Water stop valve or a cold-hot mixing valve available his.

Im handwerklichen und industriellen Bereich kann die "Handbrause", wenn die Reinigungsbewegung definitiv immer die gleiche ist, auch an einer festen und/oder beweglichen Halterung angeordnet werden.In the craft and industrial sector, the "Hand shower" if the cleaning movement is definitely always is the same, even on a fixed and / or movable Bracket can be arranged.
