Es ist bereits eine winkelverstellbare Rotordüse bekannt (
Weiterhin bekannt ist ein Brausekopf (
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Brausekopf zu schaffen, bei dem sich das Strahlbild in bislang nicht bekannter Weise verändern lässt.The invention has for its object to provide a shower head, in which the spray pattern can be changed in a previously unknown manner.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung einen Brausekopf mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 vor. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche, deren Wortlaut ebenso wie der Wortlaut der Zusammenfassung durch Bezugnahme zum Inhalt der Beschreibung gemacht wird.To solve this problem, the invention proposes a shower head with the features of claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims, the wording of which as well as the wording of the abstract is incorporated by reference into the content of the description.
Der aus der Strahlaustrittsöffnung austretende Wasserstrahl bewegt sich in einer sich kontinuierlich ändernden Richtung. Beim Auftreffen auf dem Körper der sich duschenden Person beschreibt er also eine geschlossene Linie. Dies ruft eine gewisse Massagewirkung hervor. Darüberhinaus wird der Körper der sich duschenden Person über einen größeren Bereich mit Wasser besprüht, obwohl sich der Brausekopf in seiner Position nicht ändert. Darüberhinaus entsteht optisch, je nach der Schnelligkeit, mit der sich die Richtung ändert, ein Bild, das von den Strahlbildern herkömmlicher Brausen verschieden ist.The water jet emerging from the jet outlet opening moves in a continuously changing direction. When hitting the body of the showering person he describes a closed line. This causes a certain massage effect. In addition, the body of the showering person is sprayed over a larger area with water, although the shower head in its position does not change. Moreover, optically, depending on the speed with which the direction changes, an image different from the jet images of conventional showers arises.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Einrichtung zur kontinuierlichen Änderung der Richtung des austretenden Strahles gegenüber dem Gehäuse durch das in den Brausekopf einströmende und aus diesem ausströmende Wasser angetrieben werden kann. Es sind daher keine zusätzlichen Einrichtungen erforderlich.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that the device for continuously changing the direction of the exiting jet with respect to the housing can be driven by the water flowing into and out of the shower head. There are therefore no additional facilities required.
Insbesondere schlägt die Erfindung vor, dass der Wasserstrahl so bewegt wird, dass er in der Mantelfläche eines Kegels liegt. Es kann sich mit Vorteil um einen Kegel handeln, der von einem Kreiskegel abweicht.In particular, the invention proposes that the water jet is moved so that it lies in the lateral surface of a cone. It may be advantageous to a cone that deviates from a circular cone.
Erfindungsgemäß kann in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass die Spitze des Kegels etwa im Bereich der Strahlscheibe, ggf. auch etwas in das Innere des Gehäuses des Brausekopfs versetzt, angeordnet ist. Dadurch wird es möglich, einerseits ein sehr interessantes Strahlbild zu schaffen und andererseits das Gehäuse klein zu bauen, da nur eine einzige relativ kleine Öffnung für das Austreten des Strahles benötigt wird.According to the invention may be provided in a development that the tip of the cone is approximately in the region of the jet disk, possibly also slightly offset in the interior of the housing of the shower head, is arranged. This makes it possible, on the one hand to create a very interesting spray pattern and on the other hand to build the housing small, since only a single relatively small opening for the exit of the beam is needed.
Besonders überraschend sieht der Strahl aus, wenn ein Querschnitt durch den Kegel auch konkave Abschnitte aufweist.The jet looks particularly surprising if a cross section through the cone also has concave sections.
Beispielsweise kann die Änderung der Richtung des Strahles so ausgebildet sein, dass ein Querschnitt durch den Kegel etwa die Form einer Acht aufweist.For example, the change in the direction of the beam may be formed so that a cross section through the cone has approximately the shape of an eight.
Zur Herstellung einer bestimmten Bewegung des Düsenkörpers kann vorgesehen sein, dass dieser mit einer gehäusefesten Kulisse zusammenwirkt.To produce a specific movement of the nozzle body can be provided that this cooperates with a housing-fixed backdrop.
Zur Verbesserung des Strahlbildes kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass der Düsenkörper so angeordnet wird, dass die Öffnung, aus der der Wasserstrahl austritt, etwas gegenüber der Strahlscheibe und/oder dem Gehäuse des Brausekopfs nach innen versetzt angeordnet ist. Es kann damit erreicht werden, dass der Düsenkörper während des Betriebs der Brause praktisch nicht sichtbar ist.To improve the jet pattern, it can be provided according to the invention that the nozzle body is arranged so that the opening, from which the water jet emerges, is offset slightly inwards relative to the jet disk and / or the housing of the shower head. It can thus be achieved that the nozzle body is practically invisible during operation of the shower.
Der Brausekopf nach der Erfindung eignet sich insbesondere, aber nicht ausschließlich, als fest installierte Brause, beispielsweise als Seitenbrause.The shower head according to the invention is particularly, but not exclusively, as a permanently installed shower, for example as a side shower.

Der flachzylindrische Abschnitt 3 des rückwärtigen Gehäuseteils 2 ist an seiner Außenseite mit einem Außengewinde 7 versehen. Im Bereich seines vorderen Endes enthält der flachzylindrische Abschnitt 3 einen nach außen gerichteten Flansch 8. Der rückwärtige Gehäuseteil 2 ist von vorne durch die Öffnung in der Platte 1 eingesetzt, bis er mit dem Flansch 8 am Rand der Öffnung anliegt. Anschließend wird von hinten eine Mutter 9 auf das Außengewinde 7 aufgeschraubt, die den rückwärtigen Gehäuseteil 4 dann in der Öffnung der Platte 1 festlegt.The flat
Von vorne bzw. unten ist dann in das Gehäuse eine teilkugelförmige Verteilerplatte 10 eingesetzt, die einzelne Öffnungen zum Durchlassen des Wassers aufweist. Daran schließt sich ein Bodenteil 11 an, der einen rückwärtigen teilkugelförmigen Bereich mit durchgehenden Öffnungen 12 sowie eine zylindrische Schürze 13 enthält. Dieser Bodenteil 11 ist in
Der Boden enthält um die Öffnungen 12 herum eine Nockenbahn 15, die etwa die Form einer Acht aufweist. Diese Bahn weist überall die gleichen Breite auf.The bottom contains around the
Innerhalb der Schürze 13 des Bodens 11 ist Platz für eine dort frei drehbar angeordnete Turbine 16, die in
An dem Ring 17 sind Turbinenschaufeln 19 angebracht, die radial zu der Symmetrieachse des Gehäuses und in ihrer anderen Erstreckung axial verlaufen. Die Außenseite der Turbinenschaufeln 19 liegen auf einem Zylinder, dessen Umfang etwa dem Innenumfang der Schürze 13 entspricht.On the
In dem Turbinenelement 16 ist ein Düsenkörper 20 gehaltert, der aus einem vorderen abgerundeten Abschnitt 21 mit einer durchgehenden Bohrung 22 und einem hinteren Führungsabschnitt aufgebaut ist. Der Führungsabschnitt enthält zwei Stege 24, die in einen symmetrisch in Verlängerung der Bohrung 22 angeordneten Zapfen 25 übergehen. Der Durchmesser des Zapfens 25 entspricht der Breite der Nockenbahn 15. Die Abmessungen des Düsenkörpers 20 sind so gewählt, dass er innerhalb des Turbinenelements 16 angeordnet ist und mit dem Zapfen 25 in die Kulisse 15 eingreift.In the
In dieser Position wird sowohl das Turbinenelement 16 als auch der Düsenkörper 20 durch eine Kappe 26 gehalten, die die Schürze 13 außen umgibt und in ihrem mittleren Teil eine Öffnung 27 aufweist. Der Rand der Öffnung 27 ist etwas nach innen gezogen. An diesem Rand liegt der abgerundete vordere Teil 21 des Düsenkörpers 20 an, siehe
Die Kappe 26 wird soweit auf den Boden 11 aufgeschoben, bis sie mit ihrem Rand auf einer Schulter aufliegt. In dieser Position wird die Kappe 26 durch eine Frontplatte 28 gesichert. Diese Frontplatte wird mit einer umlaufenden Schürze 29 in ein Innengewinde des flachzylindrischen Abschnitts 3 des rückwärtigen Gehäuseteils 2 eingeschraubt. Zur Abdichtung ist zwischen dem Gehäuseteil 2 und der Frontplatte 28 eine Dichtung 33 angeordnet.The
Zur Abdichtung zwischen der Kappe 26 und der Frontplatte dient ebenfalls eine umlaufende Lippendichtung 30.For sealing between the
Die Kappe 26 weist an ihrer Innenseite die Öffnung 27 umgebend einen Ring 31 auf, der die vordere Kante 32 der Turbinenschaufeln 19 abstützt. Das Turbinenelement 16 ist daher in axialer Richtung innerhalb des Gehäuses gehalten.The
Die von der Erfindung vorgeschlagene und in den Zeichnungen dargestellte Einrichtung arbeitet wie folgt. Das Wasser strömt durch den Einlass 5 in das Innere des Gehäuses 1 und durch die verschiedenen Öffnungen weiter. Das durch die schräg radial angeordneten Schlitze 14 eindringende Wasser trifft auf die Turbinenschaufeln 19 und setzt die Turbine in Drehbewegung. Der Düsenkörper wird, da sein Zapfen 25 in einem radialen Schlitz 18 gehalten ist, bei dieser Drehbewegung mitgenommen. Bei der Drehbewegung wird die Orientierung des Düsenkörpers 20 durch den Eingriff seines Zapfens 25 in die Kulisse 15 bestimmt. Das aus der Öffnung 22 austretende Wasser beschreibt eine Figur, die der Figur der Kulisse 15 geometrisch ähnlich ist. Beim Auftreffen auf einen Körper beschreibt der Wasserstrahl also eine geschlossene Linie, die in dem dargestellten Beispiel etwa einer Acht entspricht. Da die Öffnung 22 sich zwar in ihrer Winkelausrichtung ändert, ihre absolute Position aber kaum verändert wird, liegt der Wasserstrahl auf der Mantelfläche eines Kegels, der im dargestellten Beispiel kein Kreiskegel ist. Durch die Gestaltung der Kulisse 15 ist es möglich, unterschiedliche Formen des Kegels und damit der Linie, längs der der Wasserstrahl auf einer Fläche auftrifft, zu verwirklichen.The proposed by the invention and illustrated in the drawings device operates as follows. The water flows through the
Bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform liegt der Düsenkörper 20 mit seinem vorderen Abschnitt 21 auf dem Rand der Öffnung 27 an. Der Düsenkörper ist ein von der Kappe 26 getrenntes Teil. Es wäre auch denkbar, den Düsenkörper über ein Filmscharnier oder eine Membran mit einer Strahlscheibe so zu verbinden, dass der Düsenkörper nicht auf einer Öffnung aufliegt, sondern durch Verformung der Membran die durch die Führungsbahnen 15. vorgeschriebene Bewegung mitmachen kann.In the illustrated embodiment, the
