- the invention relates to a jet regulator for the outlet of a sanitary fitting or for a shower according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- Jet regulators also called aerators or mixing nozzles
- aerators or mixing nozzles are often located at the water outlet of a sanitary fitting and influence the shape and type of the water jet. Depending on the various country-specific conditions and different water pressures, the best possible beam is to be guaranteed. Usually, a soft non-squirting jet is generated and water and energy costs are saved.
- a jet regulator with a perforated plate is known, by means of which the water jet can be adapted to changing water pressure conditions or water pressure fluctuations by opening or blocking openings in the perforated plate by means of a biased in the closed position valve for the flow of water become.
- the object of the invention is to improve the function of sanitary fittings and showers with different spray types.
- a jet regulator for the outlet of a sanitary fitting or a shower which comprises at least two flow chambers or flow channels, each having an inflow opening and one or more water outlet openings.
- the control of the inflow per flow chamber or flow channel is effected by a single valve with an elastic valve body which is upstream of the flow chamber or flow channels and selectively closes or releases the inflow openings, wherein a deformation of the elastic valve body and thus a change in the valve position by a change of pending water pressure or by mechanical actuation by means of an actuating element.
- a closing of the inflow opening of the flow chamber or of the flow channel is provided by abutment of a part of the elastic valve body on a sealing surface.
- a jet regulator usually has a housing with an external thread, which can be screwed into the outlet of a sanitary fitting.
- the flow chambers or flow channels are formed by the housing and partitions, wherein the partitions can optionally be formed by releasable inserts or inserts in the housing.
- the flow chambers or flow channels have at their terminal end, for example in the housing bottom, water outlet openings of various kinds or in turn inserts in the form of screens or jet formers, which provide the shape of the exiting water jet.
- the flow chambers or flow channels are arranged concentrically.
- the elastic valve body is positioned and shaped to form part of the flow chambers or flow channels.

- the lips or flaps of the valve body are each arranged or fixed such that in the open position of the valve, a defined gap between the sealing surface and lip or flap is formed. In the closed valve position, the valve body or a part of it can lie flat against a sealing surface or only by an edge to bear against the sealing surface and thus close the defined gap.
- a jet former or a screen for producing a laminar or mousseur beam may be provided in the water outlet opening of a flow chamber or a flow channel.
- individual spaced water outlet openings may be provided in a flow chamber or a flow channel, so that a shower jet is formed with a plurality of individual beams.
- an elastic sealing element is provided between the insert, which forms or includes a flow channel and the housing bottom of the jet regulator, the tubular projections has, which penetrate the water outlet openings on the housing bottom.
- the tubular projections act as water outlet nozzles, which generate the individual jets for a shower spray.
- the sealing elements usually also consist of an elastomer. In addition to the function of shaping and dispensing the shower jets, they also have a descaling function. Although deposits of lime from the escaping water on the sealing element or the water outlet nozzles are possible, but can be removed by slight mechanical action on the tubular projections.

- Figures 1 to 3 show a section through a jet regulator 1 according to the invention, with a housing 11 whose outer contour is adapted to the outlet of a sanitary fitting and whose inner contour defines a part of a flow chamber or a flow channel 12.
- the present jet regulator 1 has two flow channels 12, 13, which are arranged concentrically to one another.
- a valve with an annular elastic valve body 15 is provided, the opening and closing positions of which are achieved by a deformation of the valve body 15 and its interaction with different sealing surfaces 111, 161.
- the elastic valve body 15 has two differently shaped lips 151, 152, which protrude to both sides of the valve body.
- valve body 15 is inserted through the lower opening of the housing 11 in the jet regulator 1 and at the same time forms an extension of a flow channel wall.
- a stem-shaped insert 16 is also inserted through the lower opening of the housing in the jet regulator 1, to which a lip 152 of the valve body conforms, is thus biased and forms a tight seal of the resulting flow channel 13 at the inlet opening.
- stem-shaped insert 16 downstream of a sieve or a jet former 14 is inserted or screwed into the water outlet opening 131 of the flow channel 13, with the support of a laminar jet or a Mousseurstrahl can be generated.
- the lip 152 protrudes freely and releases the inflow opening to the flow channel 12. With a small amount of water, the water flows through this inflow opening and is formed by the water outlet openings 121 in total to a shower jet with a plurality of individual jets.
- Figure 2 shows the jet regulator of Figure 1 at elevated water pressure.
- the system is set so that at the illustrated defined limit pressure, the lip 151 closes by abutting a sealing surface 1 of the housing 1, while the lip 52 is still closed.

- the operation of the jet regulator 1 is identical to the embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 3.
- the annular slide is located at an upper stop point. He presses with its inner cam, the lip 151 to a sealing surface 111 of the housing 11, so that the inflow opening of the flow chamber 12 is closed and the inflow opening to the flow chamber 13 is opened. Thus, the function of the shower spray on the jet regulator 1 is blocked.
- FIG. 8 shows the mechanical actuating element 17 in the position in which it deforms the valve body 15 such that its lip 152 comes into contact with the sealing surface 161 of the stem-shaped insert 16 and thus blocks the inflow opening to the flow chamber 13.
- FIG. 9 shows a section through a jet regulator 1 according to the invention in a further embodiment.
- the housing 11 of the jet regulator 1 is also adapted to the outlet of a sanitary fitting.
- the flow chamber 13 and the flow channels 12 are defined by another insert 18.
- the annular insert 18 includes the flow channels 12.
- the elastic valve body 15 is positively connected to the insert 18.
- the opening and closing positions are also achieved here by a deformation of the valve body 15 and its interaction with different sealing surfaces 161 and 181.
- one edge of the lip 152 cooperates with the sealing surface 161 of the stem-shaped insert 16.
- the second lip 151 of the elastic valve body 15 forms a defined gap with the sealing surface 181 on the insert 18.
- the opening to the flow channel 12 in the insert 18 is released. With increased water pressure, the lip 152 lowers and closes the opening of the flow channel 12 surface.
- the defined gap is closed and the lip 151 lies flat on the sealing surface 181.
- the insert 18 with the valve body 15 is inserted through the lower opening of the housing 11 into the jet regulator 1 during assembly and at the same time forms the flow channels 12.
- the stem-shaped insert 16 is likewise inserted into the jet regulator 1 through the lower opening of the housing used, to which the lip 152 of the valve body 15 conforms.
- the stem-shaped insert 16 downstream of a sieve or a jet former 14 is inserted or screwed into the water outlet opening 131 of the flow channel 13, with the support of a laminar or a Mousseurstrahl can be generated.
- a sealing element 19 is inserted, which penetrates with its tubular lugs 191, the water outlet openings 121 in the housing bottom.
- the sealing element 19 with its tubular projections 191 forms water outlet nozzles, with which the individual jets of a spray jet are formed.
