Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shower head arrangement for shower systems with a elongated shower head, which is releasably attached to a holder and a has elongated water outlet surface.
  • Such shower head arrangements are known in a large number of variants. she usually include a shower head with a stem attached to a bracket, especially wall bracket, is hung around the shower head when showering either fixed on the wall as a wall shower or after removal as Use hand shower.
  • the handle of the hand shower is not just one Removable wall bracket, but usually consists of a wall bracket, on which a holder for the shower head is adjustable in height.
  • Such hand showers are usually relatively bulky, especially if they are equipped with several different beam patterns, which over a selection organ can optionally be activated. Such hand showers are from Users handled almost exclusively on a stick to the different parts of the body to reach.
  • From DE-A-41 22 861 is a hand shower in an elongated shape and with an elongated Water outlet surface known with a brush attachment, a shower lotion container and two nozzle sets are equipped for different functions.
  • a selector switch can be used to soap up the water flow through the shower lotion container with the first nozzles in the area of the brush, while for normal showers the water supply can be connected directly to the main jets can.
  • the present invention has for its object a shower head assembly to propose the various different with a relatively large water outlet area Enables jet patterns and has a very handy shape.
  • the shower head is so narrow that it can be gripped by one hand and that the elongated water outlet surface has several sets of water nozzles for different ones Has jet images.
  • Such an elongated water outlet surface enables it to arrange a large number of water jets without the Handiness suffers like some known hand showers with e.g. circular Water outlet area and relatively large diameter is the case.
  • the water nozzles of the water nozzle sets are preferably on the water outlet surface on one or more circles or on one or more ovals arranged, these circles or oval with the water jets preferably are arranged approximately concentrically to each other.
  • This configuration has above all the advantage that in the arrangement of several water nozzle sets for different Jet patterns the supply of the individual water nozzle sets from a distributor arrangement can be realized in a simple manner.
  • the water nozzle sets Beam supply devices individually assigned that selectively with Water are supplied.
  • a selection body is provided for that the beam supply devices can be activated selectively.
  • the shower head arrangement according to the invention in particular with an elongated one shower head according to the characterizing part of claim 1, is according to one Another advantageous embodiment, characterized in that the shower head is releasably connected to a handle on the holder, in particular one Wall bracket is attached.
  • the stem is of Invention provided with a receiving fork into which the shower head can be hung. In this way it is possible to remove the shower head without a stick and after Use again in the fork.
  • the shower head can do it gripped by a hand like a bar of soap and carried along the body.
  • This solution with a mounting fork for mounting the shower head can be Modify in a variant such that two pick-up forks on the handle are provided so that two identical or different shower heads are suspended can be.
  • the wall holder is preferably displaceable in height on a wall holder rod and hung pivotably.
  • the handle is detachably attached to the holder, to use the shower head with a handle.
  • the shower head according to the present invention is elongated, in particular oval is trained, can be used as a selection organ in a simple and easy to operate Arrange a round or sector-shaped selection wheel in the shower head, that either protrudes from the side or through side recesses in the shower head is operable to select the individual beam patterns.
  • FIG 1 the complete shower head arrangement can be seen, in which the inventive shower head 1 with a plug-on part 6 in a receiving fork 4 Holder can be inserted and removed, the receiving fork 4 on one Stem 2 is attached.
  • the handle 4 is opposite a holder 5 by one (in the Seen drawing) vertical axis swiveling and also removable upwards hung up.
  • the holder 5 is in a known manner on a wall holder rod 3 slidably arranged and infinitely lockable at any height.
  • in the A supply hose 8 is fastened in the area of the plug-on part 6.
  • the shower head 1 has a Bottom of a water outlet surface 10 with water nozzle sets 11, 21, 13 with a variety of water nozzles, which are distributed over the water outlet surface.
  • Figure 2 shows in particular that on the oval water outlet surface 10, an outer Ring of water nozzles of a first water nozzle set 11 is provided while further inside a second ring of water nozzles from a second set of water nozzles 12 lie.
  • a third set of water nozzles 13 arranged with a large water nozzle 13, all three sets of water nozzles 11, 12 and 13 are arranged concentrically to one another.
  • FIG. 1 shows schematically (dash-dotted) beam supply devices 11a, 12a and 13a indicated that the associated water nozzle sets 11, 12 and 13th supply with water.
  • a selection element 7 in the form of a circular or the beam supply devices 11a, 12a and 13a optionally connected to the water supply via the hose 8.
  • the selection wheel 7 is laterally over the oval-shaped shower head 1, so that it can easily be turned by hand to one of the water nozzle sets 11, 12 and 13 to select.
  • lateral recesses or depressions in the shower head 1 provided, via which the selection wheel 7 can be operated. In this case the selection wheel 7 does not have to protrude beyond the oval-shaped shower head 1.
  • the three water nozzle sets 11, 12 and 13 assigned to three different jet patterns, namely the water nozzles 11 for a normal spray pattern, the water nozzles 12 for a fog-like spray pattern and the water nozzles 13 for a laminar jet pattern.
  • the water nozzle sets 11, 12 and 13 over the full, essentially oval water outlet surface 10 are distributed, it is also possible to distribute different, e.g. provide circular.
  • the concentric arrangement of the Water nozzle sets 11, 12 and 13 allow the associated ones in a simple manner Jet supply devices 11a, 12a and 13a optionally with water from the Supply hose 8 and in this case in a simple manner by the selection wheel 7 to select.
  • the detachable suspension of the shower head 1 on the handle 2 brings great advantages because then the shower head 1 is relatively small and light when removed from the handle is so that it can easily be gripped with one hand and around the body can be performed.
  • This aspect of the present invention can not only be use with elongated shower heads that have an elongated water outlet surface for Have water jets, but also with differently shaped heads.
