Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen teleskopierbaren Wasserauslauf mit einem als Durchflussrohr ausgestalteten Innenrohr und einem als Ausflussrohr ausgebildeten Außenrohr, welches das Innenrohr mit Abstand unter Bildung eines Ringmantelraumes umgreift.The invention relates to a telescopic water outlet with an inner tube designed as a flow tube and an outer tube designed as an outflow tube, which surrounds the inner tube at a distance to form an annular jacket space.
Aus der
Es besteht daher insbesondere die Aufgabe, einen Wasserauslauf der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, der mit vergleichsweise geringem Aufwand herstellbar ist und der die Nachteile des vorbekannten Standes der Technik vermeidet, ohne dessen Vorzüge vermissen zu lassen.There is therefore a particular object to provide a water spout of the type mentioned, which can be produced with relatively little effort and avoids the disadvantages of the prior art, without sacrificing its merits.
Eine erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht bei dem Wasserauslauf der eingangs erwähnten Art darin, dass das Innenrohr an seinem im Außenrohr angeordneten Stirnendbereich den Innenrohr-Kopf mit einem das Außenrohr innenumfangsseitig verschieblich beaufschlagenden Ringflansch trägt, und dass der Innenrohr-Kopf an seinem Ringflansch wenigstens eine Durchflussöffnung und an seinem Kopfumfang zumindest eine im Ringmantelraum mündende Durchströmöffnung aufweist.A solution to this problem according to the invention consists in the water outlet of the type mentioned above in that the inner tube carries at its arranged in the outer tube Stirnendbereich the inner tube head with an inner tube on the inner circumference displaceably annular flange, and that the inner tube head at least at its annular flange a flow opening and at its head circumference has at least one opening in the annular mantle flow opening.
Das Innenrohr des erfindungsgemäßen Wasserauslaufs weist an seinem im Außenrohr angeordneten Stirnendbereich einen Innenrohr-Kopf auf, der einen das Außenrohr innenumfangsseitig verschieblich beaufschlagenden Ringflansch trägt. Das Außenrohr ist somit an dem am Innenrohr-Kopf vorgesehen Ringflansch verschieblich geführt. Während am Ringflansch des Innenrohr-Kopfes wenigstens eine im Rohrinneren des Außenrohres mündende Durchflussöffnung vorgesehen ist, weist das Innenrohr an seinem Kopfumfang zumindest eine im Ringmantelraum mündende Durchströmöffnung auf. Der vergleichsweise einfach herstellbare Innenrohr-Kopf vermag das Innenrohr an seinem im Außenrohr angeordneten Stirnendbereich zu verschließen und gleichzeitig sowohl die zumindest eine, im Ringmantelraum mündende Durchströmöffnung als auch die zwischen Ringmantelraum und Außenrohr-Innenraum vorgesehene Durchflussöffnung zu schaffen.The inner tube of the water outlet according to the invention has, at its front end region arranged in the outer tube, an inner tube head which carries an annular flange, which displaceably engages the outer tube on the inner circumference. The outer tube is thus guided displaceably on the annular flange provided on the inner tube head. While at least one flow opening opening into the tube interior of the outer tube is provided on the annular flange of the inner tube head, the inner tube has at least one flow opening opening out in the annular jacket space at its head circumference. The comparatively easily produced inner tube head is able to close the inner tube at its front end region arranged in the outer tube and at the same time to create both the at least one flow opening opening in the annular jacket space and the flow opening provided between annular jacket space and outer tube interior.
Dabei wird der Herstellungsaufwand noch zusätzlich reduziert, wenn der Innenrohr-Kopf als separates und mit dem Innenrohr verbindbares Bauteil herstellbar ist.In this case, the production cost is additionally reduced if the inner tube head can be produced as a separate and connectable to the inner tube component.
Ist der Innenrohr-Kopf als separates und mit dem Innenrohr verbindbares Bauteil ausgestaltet, können das Innenrohr und gegebenenfalls auch das Außenrohr aus einfachen Rohrabschnitten hergestellt werden. Dabei ist der Innenrohr-Kopf besonders einfach stirnendseitig am Innenrohr fixierbar, wenn der Innenrohr-Kopf einen mit dem Innenrohr verbindbaren Verbindungszapfen hat, der hülsenförmig ausgebildet und auf dem Innenrohr-Stirnendbereich aufschiebbar ist, oder der in das Rohrinnere des Innenrohr-Stirnendbereichs einführbar ist.If the inner tube head is designed as a separate component that can be connected to the inner tube, the inner tube and possibly also the outer tube can be produced from simple tube sections. In this case, the inner tube head is particularly easy stirnendseitig fixed to the inner tube when the inner tube head connectable to the inner tube connecting pin has, which is sleeve-shaped and can be pushed onto the inner tube Stirnendbereich, or which is insertable into the tube interior of the inner tube Stirnendbereichs.
Dabei sieht eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform, die mehrere Durchströmöffnungen begrenzt, vor, dass der Verbindungszapfen kronenförmig mit mehreren, über den Umfang des Verbindungszapfens verteilt angeordneten und zum freien Zapfenstirnende hin offenen Durchströmöffnungen ausgestaltet ist.In this case, a preferred embodiment which limits a plurality of flow-through openings, provides that the connecting pin is crown-shaped with a plurality of distributed over the circumference of the connecting pin arranged and open towards the free end of the journal end flow-through.
Insbesondere wenn der erfindungsgemäße Wasserauslauf am Auslaufende seines Außenrohres eine beispielsweise durch einen Strahlregler oder einen Brausekopf oder dergleichen im lichten Auslaufquerschnitt begrenzte Auslaufstirnfläche hat, können sich diesseits des am Innenrohrkopf vorgesehenen Ringflansches im Ringmantelraum einerseits und jenseits dieses Ringflansches im Rohrinneren des Außenrohres andererseits unterschiedliche Wasserdrücke einstellen, die zu einer unerwünschten Relativverschiebung zwischen Innenrohr und Außenrohr führen. Ein hydraulisches Kräfte-Ungleichgewicht wird noch verstärkt, wenn beispielsweise der serienmäßig vorgesehene Strahlregler unbeabsichtigt gegen einen Strahlregler einer anderen Durchflussklasse ausgetauscht wird oder wenn die als Vorsatzsieb oder als Strahlzerleger vorgesehenen Lochflächen des Strahlreglers verkalken oder sonst wie verschmutzen.In particular, if the water outlet according to the invention at the outlet end of its outer tube has a limited for example by a jet regulator or a shower head or the like in clear outlet cross-flow end face, on the other hand, set different water pressures on the other hand, provided on the inner tube head ring flange in the ring shell space on the one hand and beyond this ring flange in the tube interior of the outer tube which lead to an undesirable relative displacement between inner tube and outer tube. A hydraulic force imbalance is exacerbated if, for example, the standard provided jet regulator is inadvertently replaced with a jet regulator of another flow class or if the provided as attachment screen or as a jet splitter hole surfaces of the jet regulator calcify or otherwise pollute.
Eine weitere Ausführungsform sieht bei dem teleskopierbaren Wasserauslauf der eingangs erwähnten Art vor, dass eine Teleskopierbarkeit des Wasserauslaufs mittels einer Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung verzögerbar oder verhinderbar ist, welche Brems-oder Blockiereinrichtung durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr aktivierbar ist.A further embodiment provides for the telescopic water outlet of the type mentioned that a telescoping of the water outlet by means of a braking or blocking device can be delayed or prevented, which brake or blocking device can be activated by a pressure change in the annular jacket space and / or by changing the relative position of the inner and outer tubes.
Gemäß diesem Lösungsvorschlag weist der erfindungsgemäße Wasserauslauf eine Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung auf, die eine Teleskopierbarkeit des Wasserauslaufs und damit einer Relativbewegung zwischen Innen- und Außenrohr, d.h. ein Zusammenschieben oder ein Auseinanderlaufen des Auslaufrohrleitungssystems verzögert oder gar verhindert. Damit ist diese Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr aktivierbar. Sind das Innen- und das Außenrohr als kreisrunde Rohrabschnitte ausgebildet, wird durch die Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung jedwede Relativbewegung zwischen Innen- und Außenrohr und somit auch eine Drehbewegung verzögert oder verhindert.According to this proposed solution, the water outlet according to the invention on a braking or blocking device, which is a telescoping of the water outlet and thus a relative movement between the inner and outer tube, i. delayed or even prevented a pushing together or a divergence of the outlet pipe system. Thus, this braking or blocking device can be activated by a pressure change in the annular jacket space and / or by a change in the relative position of the inner and outer tubes. Are the inner and outer tubes formed as circular pipe sections, any relative movement between the inner and outer tube and thus also a rotational movement is delayed or prevented by the braking or blocking device.
Dabei sieht eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform gemäß der Erfindung vor, dass die Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung zumindest ein am Innen- oder Außenrohr gehaltenes Bremselement aufweist, das durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr in radialer Richtung oder Querrichtung derart bewegbar oder verformbar ist, dass das zumindest eine Bremselement das Innenrohr oder ein mit einem Armaturengehäuse starr verbundenes Standrohr beaufschlagt.In this case, a preferred embodiment according to the invention provides that the braking or blocking device has at least one held on the inner or outer tube brake element by a change in pressure in the annular jacket space and / or by changing the relative position of the inner and outer tubes in the radial direction or Transverse direction is movable or deformable such that the at least one brake element acts on the inner tube or a standpipe rigidly connected to a valve body.
Um mit Hilfe des zumindest einen Bremselementes eine ausreichende Bremswirkung zu erzielen und das Bremselement aktivieren zu können, ist es zweckmäßig, wenn das zumindest eine Bremselement mit einer stirn- oder umfangsseitigen Schrägfläche eine Auflaufschräge beaufschlagt, und wenn das Bremselement und die ihm zugeordnete Auflaufschräge durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr eine Relativbewegung erfahren, derart, dass sich das Bremselement in radialer Richtung oder in Querrichtung bewegt oder verformt.In order to achieve a sufficient braking effect with the aid of the at least one brake element and to activate the brake element, it is expedient if the at least one brake element with a frontal or peripheral inclined surface acts on a ramp, and if the brake element and its associated bevel by a Pressure change in the annular jacket space and / or by a change in the relative position of the inner and outer tube experience a relative movement, such that the braking element moves or deforms in the radial direction or in the transverse direction.
Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform gemäß der Erfindung sieht vor, dass zwischen Innen- und Außenrohr ein ringförmiger Bremskolben verschieblich geführt ist, der an seinem Außen-oder Innenumfang zumindest eine Auflaufschräge hat. Sobald dieser Bremskolben durch eine Druckerhöhung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch ein Einfahren des Innenrohrs in das Außenrohr eine Relativbewegung in Längsrichtung des Auslaufrohrleitungssystems erfährt, wird diese Längsbewegung mittels der Auflaufschräge in eine Bewegung des Bremselementes in radialer Richtung oder in Querrichtung umgesetzt.A preferred embodiment according to the invention provides that between the inner and outer tube, an annular brake piston is displaceably guided, which has at least one bevel on its outer or inner circumference. As soon as this brake piston undergoes a relative movement in the longitudinal direction of the outlet pipe system by an increase in pressure in the annular jacket space and / or by a retraction of the inner pipe into the outer pipe, this longitudinal movement is converted by means of the ramp into a movement of the braking element in the radial direction or in the transverse direction.
Bei einer axialen oder radialen Verschiebung des Außenrohrs durch den Benutzer, beispielsweise verursacht durch manuelle Anpassung der Höhe oder der Umfangsposition des Auslaufteils des Teleskop-Rohrs, wirkt die Bremse in drucklosem Zustand nicht, was einer einfacheren Ausrichtung durch den Benutzer entgegen kommt.In an axial or radial displacement of the outer tube by the user, for example caused by manual adjustment of the height or the circumferential position of the outlet part of the telescopic tube, the brake does not act in a pressureless state, which is easier to align by the user.
Während des Betriebes ist eine manuell aufgebrachte RelativBewegung zwischen Außen- und Innenroh dennoch möglich, wenngleich auch mit erhöhtem Kraftaufwand, da die Bremswirkung, die sich aufgrund der unterdrückten Längsbewegung zwischen Außenrohr und Innenrohr aufgrund unterschiedlicher Drücke und Wirkflächen ergibt, überwunden werden muss.During operation, a manually applied relative movement between outer and inner tube is still possible, albeit with increased effort, since the braking effect resulting from the suppressed longitudinal movement between the outer tube and inner tube due to different pressures and effective areas, must be overcome.
Die Verschiebekraft ist jedoch begrenzt, da bei zwangsgesteuerter Verschiebung des Außenrohrs, dass mindestens eine Bremselement zwar ebenfalls über eine schräge Fläche nach Außen gedrückt wird, die radiale Kraftwirkung aber letztlich durch die Reib- und Gleitverhältnisse an der Innendichtung des Bremskolbens zum Innenrohr hin begrenzt wird, so dass ab dem Zeitpunkt der Gleitreibung zwischen Bremskolben und Innenrohr keine zusätzlichen Radialkräfte auf das Standrohr übertragen werden.However, the displacement force is limited, since at positively controlled displacement of the outer tube, that at least one brake element is also pressed over an inclined surface to the outside, the radial force effect is ultimately limited by the friction and sliding conditions on the inner seal of the brake piston to the inner tube, so that from the time of sliding friction between the brake piston and inner tube no additional radial forces are transmitted to the standpipe.
Die Bestandteile der Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung werden auf einfache Weise miteinander verbunden, wenn das Außenrohr zumindest eine Durchstecköffnung hat, die ein Bremselement durchsetzt, und wenn das Bremselement an seiner zum Innenrohr weisenden Stirn- oder Umfangsseite die eine Auflaufschräge am Bremskolben beaufschlagende Schrägfläche aufweist und mit seiner gegenüberliegenden, nach außen weisenden Stirn- oder Umfangsseite mit einem, das Außenrohr umgreifenden Standrohr zusammenwirkt. Damit ist das zumindest eine Bremselement in der Durchstecköffnung des Außenrohres gehalten. Mit seiner zum Innenrohr weisenden und als Schrägfläche ausgebildeten Stirn- oder Umfangsseite greift das Bremselement in die Auflaufschräge am Bremskolben ein, der dadurch mit dem Außen-und dem Innenrohr entlang von Schrägfläche und Auflaufschräge verschieblich verbunden ist. Durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr wird der Bremskolben geringfügig in Längsrichtung des Auslaufrohrleitungssystems bewegt. Diese Längsbewegung des Bremskolbens wird von dessen Auflaufschräge auf die Schrägfläche des zumindest einen Bremselementes übertragen, das dadurch eine Bewegung in radialer Richtung oder in Querrichtung zum Standrohr erfährt. Dabei legt sich das zumindest eine Bremselement derart an das Standrohr an, dass eine Teleskopierbarkeit des Wasserauslaufs mittels der Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung verzögerbar oder verhinderbar ist.The components of the braking or blocking device are connected to one another in a simple manner when the outer tube has at least one through opening which passes through a braking element, and if the brake element has on its facing the inner tube end or peripheral side which has a ramp on the brake piston acting inclined surface and with its opposite, outwardly facing end or peripheral side cooperates with a, the outer tube embracing standpipe. Thus, the at least one brake element is held in the insertion opening of the outer tube. With its pointing to the inner tube and designed as an inclined surface front or peripheral side, the brake element engages in the ramp on the brake piston, which thereby characterized with the outer and inner tube along the inclined surface and ramp slidably connected. By a pressure change in the annular jacket space and / or by a change in the relative position of the inner and outer tubes of the brake piston is slightly moved in the longitudinal direction of the outlet pipe system. This longitudinal movement of the brake piston is transmitted from the ramp on the inclined surface of the at least one brake element, which thereby undergoes a movement in the radial direction or in the transverse direction to the standpipe. In this case, the at least one brake element engages the standpipe in such a way that a telescopability of the water outlet by means of the braking or blocking device can be delayed or prevented.
Sofern der Bremskolben gleichzeitig auch den armaturenseitigen Abschluss des Ringmantelraums bildet, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Bremskolben gegenüber dem Innenrohr oder gegenüber dem Außenrohr mittels zumindest einer Gleitringdichtung abgedichtet ist.If the brake piston at the same time also forms the fitting end of the annular jacket space, it is advantageous if the brake piston is sealed relative to the inner tube or to the outer tube by means of at least one mechanical seal.
Eine besonders einfache und auf nur wenige Bestandteile reduzierte Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass das Bremselement kreisförmig ausgebildet und durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr in radialer Richtung aufweitbar ist.A particularly simple and reduced to only a few components embodiment provides that the brake element is circular and can be expanded in the radial direction by a pressure change in the annular jacket space and / or by changing the relative position of the inner and outer tubes.
Um die Bremswirkung möglichst vollständig zu lösen und dazu eine Rückstellbewegung des Bremselements durchzuführen, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn das Bremselement aus elastischem Material hergestellt ist.In order to solve the braking effect as completely as possible and to perform a return movement of the braking element, it is advantageous if the brake element is made of elastic material.
Ein fester Halt des teleskopierbaren Wasserauslaufs wird begünstigt, wenn das Außenrohr im Standrohr verschieblich geführt ist.A firm hold of the telescopic water outlet is favored when the outer tube is slidably guided in the standpipe.
Bevorzugte Ausführungsbeispiele sehen vor, dass am Auslaufende des Wasserauslaufs ein Brausekopf und/oder ein Strahlregler vorgesehen ist. Mit Hilfe des teleskopierbaren Wasserauslaufs kann eine Duschbrause individuell an die Größe des Benutzers angepasst werden. Der teleskopierbare Wasserauslauf ist aber auch an einem Küchenbecken vorteilhaft einsetzbar und kann dort einen flexiblen Wasserschlauch als Armaturenauslauf entbehrlich machen. Ist die Küchenbrause als sogenannte Duo-Brause ausgestaltet, die zwischen einer Brause-und einer Wasserstrahlfunktion eingestellbar ist, kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn der Wasserauslauf wahlweise zwischen der Brausefunktion und der durch einen Strahlregler geformten Strahlfunktion umschaltbar ist.Preferred embodiments provide that at the outlet end of the water outlet a shower head and / or a jet regulator is provided. With the aid of the telescopic water outlet, a shower spray can be individually adapted to the size of the user. The telescopic water outlet can also be used advantageously on a kitchen sink and can make there a flexible water hose dispensed as a tap outlet. If the kitchen shower designed as a so-called duo-shower, which can be adjusted between a shower and a water jet function, it may be advantageous if the water outlet is optionally switchable between the shower function and the jet function formed by a jet regulator.
Üblicherweise ergeben sich in den zwei Strahlarten Strahl/Brause unterschiedliche hydraulische Widerstände und somit unterschiedliche Durchflüsse. Der dadurch induzierte unterschiedliche Druckabfall innerhalb der Teleskopeinheit würde bei einem System ohne Bremseinrichtung dazu führen, dass aufgrund einer Verschiebung des Kräftegleichgewichts das zuvor in Ruhe befindliche System außer Gleichgewicht gerät, was dazu führt, dass sich der Teleskopauslauf selbstständig ausstreckt oder zusammenzieht, was unerwünscht ist. Dies wird durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Bremseinrichtung unterbunden.Usually arise in the two spray jet / spray different hydraulic resistances and thus different flow rates. The resulting differential pressure drop within the telescope unit would result in a system without braking device that due to a shift in the balance of power, the previously at rest system gets out of balance, which causes the telescopic spout automatically extends or contracts, which is undesirable. This is prevented by the inventively provided braking device.

In den
Das Innenrohr 2 weist an seinem, im Außenrohr 3 angeordneten Stirnendbereich einen Innenrohr-Kopf 10 mit einem das Außenrohr 3 innenumfangsseitig verschieblich beaufschlagenden Ringflansch 11 auf. Dieser Innenrohrkopf weist an seinem Ringflansch 11 die Durchflussöffnungen 6 auf, während an seinem Kopfumfang die im Ringmantelraum 4 mündenden Durchströmöffnungen 5 vorgesehen sind. Das Außenrohr 3 ist somit an dem am Innenrohr-Kopf 10 vorgesehenen Ringflansch 11 verschieblich geführt. Der vergleichsweise einfach herstellbare Innenrohr-Kopf 10 vermag das Innenrohr 2 an seinem im Außenrohr 3 angeordneten Stirnendbereich zu verschließen und gleichzeitig sowohl die zumindest eine im Ringmantelraum 4 mündende Durchströmöffnung 5, als auch die zwischen Ringmantelraum 4 und Außenrohr-Innenraum 7 vorgesehene Durchflussöffnung 6 zu schaffen. Da der Innenrohr-Kopf 10 gegebenenfalls auch als separates und mit dem Innenrohr 2 verbindbares Bauteil herstellbar ist, können das Innenrohr 2 und das Außenrohr 3 beispielsweise aus einfachen und im Querschnitt vorzugsweise kreisrunden Rohrabschnitten hergestellt sein.The
Da der Wasserauslauf 1 am Auslaufende 12 seines Außenrohres 3 eine, beispielsweise durch einen Strahlregler 13 oder einen Brausekopf oder dergleichen, im lichten Auslaufquerschnitt begrenzte Auslaufstirnfläche hat, können sich diesseits des am Innenrohr-Kopf 10 vorgesehenen Ringflansches 11 im Ringmantelraum 4 einerseits und jenseits dieses Ringflansches 11 im Rohrinneren 7 des Außenrohres 3 andererseits unterschiedliche Wasserdrücke einstellen, die zu einer unerwünschten Relativverschiebung zwischen Innenrohr 2 und Außenrohr 3 führen. Ein hydraulisches Kräfte-Ungleichgewicht wird noch verstärkt, wenn beispielsweise der serienmäßig vorgesehene Strahlregler 13 unbeabsichtigt gegen einen Strahlregler einer anderen Durchflussklasse ausgetauscht wird oder wenn die als Vorsatzsieb oder als Strahlzerleger vorgesehenen Lochflächen des Strahlreglers 13 verkalken oder sonst wie verschmutzen. Der hier dargestellte teleskopierbare Wasserauslauf 1 weist daher eine Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung 14 auf, mittels der die Teleskopierbarkeit des Wasserauslaufs 1 verzögerbar oder verhinderbar ist und die insbesondere einem unbeabsichtigten Ein- oder Ausfahren des Wasserauslaufs 1 entgegenwirkt. Die Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung 14 ist dazu durch eine Druckerhöhung im Ringmantelraum 4 und/oder durch ein Einfahren des Innenrohrs 2 in das Außenrohr 3 aktivierbar.Since the water outlet 1 at the outlet end 12 of its
Die Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung 14 weist zumindest ein Bremselement 15 auf, das hier am Außenrohr 3 gehalten ist. Durch eine Druckerhöhung im Ringmantelraum 4 und/oder durch ein Einfahren des Innenrohrs 2 in das Außenrohr 3 ist das Bremselement 15 derart in radialer Richtung bewegbar, dass das zumindest eine Bremselement 15 ein, mit einem Armaturengrundkörper starr verbundenes und das Außenrohr 3 abschnittsweise umgreifendes Standrohr 17 innenumfangsseitig derart reibschlüssig beaufschlagt, dass sowohl Längsbewegungen als auch Drehbewegungen zwischen Innen- und Außenrohr 2, 3 verzögert oder verhindert werden. Dabei weist das zumindest eine Bremselement 15 eine stirn- oder umfangsseitige Schrägfläche 18 auf, die eine Auflaufschräge 19 beaufschlagt. Diese Auflaufschräge 19 ist an einem ringförmigen Bremskolben 20 angeordnet, der im Ringmantelraum 4 zwischen Innen- und Außenrohr 2, 3 verschieblich geführt ist. Der Bremskolben 20 erfährt durch eine Druckerhöhung im Ringmantelraum 4 und/oder durch ein Einfahren des Innenrohrs 2 in das Außenrohr 3 eine Längsbewegung, die von der außenumfangsseitig angeordneten Auflaufschräge 19 auf die Schrägfläche 18 am Bremselement 15 übertragen und in eine Radialbewegung des zumindest einen Bremselementes 15 umgesetzt wird. Durch diese Radialbewegung vermag das Bremselement 15 den Innenumfang des Standrohres 17 derart reibschlüssig zu beaufschlagen, dass bis auf weiteres eine Relativbewegung zwischen Innen- und Außenrohr 2, 3 verzögert oder verhindert wird.The braking or blocking
Um die Bestandteile der Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung 14 miteinander zu verbinden, hat das Außenrohr 3 zumindest eine Durchstecköffnung 21, die das wenigstens eine Bremselement 15 durchsetzt. Während das Bremselement 15 an seiner zum Innenrohr 2 weisenden Stirn- oder Umfangsseite die Schrägefläche 18 aufweist, wirkt das Bremselement 15 mit seiner gegenüberliegenden, nach außen weisenden Stirn- oder Umfangsseite mit dem das Außenrohr 3 umgreifenden Standrohr 17 zusammen.In order to connect the components of the braking or blocking
Der Bremskolben 20 bildet hier den armaturenseitigen Abschluss des Ringmantelraumes 4. Um den Ringmantelraum 4 auch in diesem Bereich dicht zu verschließen, sind die Gleitringdichtungen 8, 9 vorgesehen, die am Außen- beziehungsweise Innenumfang des ringförmig ausgebildeten und das Innenrohr 2 umgreifenden Bremskolbens 20 jeweils in einer Ringnut angeordnet sind.In order to seal the annular jacket space 4 tight in this area, the sliding
Das Bremselement 15 kann kreisförmig ausgebildet und durch eine Druckveränderung im Ringmantelraum und/oder durch eine Veränderung der Relativposition von Innen- und Außenrohr 2, 3 in radialer Richtung oder in Querrichtung aufweitbar sein. Möglich ist aber auch, dass - wie hier - am Bremskolben 20 mehrere, vorzugsweise in gleichmäßigen Abständen voneinander beabstandete Bremselemente 15 vorgesehen sind. Insbesondere ein kreisförmiges Bremselement kann aus elastischem Material hergestellt sein, um nach jedem Brems- oder Blockiervorgang ein Lösen der Brems- oder Blockiereinrichtung 14 und eine Rückstellbewegung des Bremselementes 15 zu erreichen.The
