Definitions
- the invention relates to a sanitary shower with a shower head according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the shower head can have a keypad, with the showering process in any way different shower spray types are applicable to each other and / or separately.
- the shower head has at least two keypads exhibiting keypad.
- the feeler elements are, with the interposition of a feeler mechanism in operative connection with valves in the shower head. With manual pressure actuation of these feeler elements a shower spray type is adjustable.
- Each of the sensing elements is spring-biased to a closed position in which a flow path in the showerhead is closed.
- the respective probe element is pressed over a first stroke in an open position in which the flow path is open and in which a molded on the pressed probe element latching contour is in releasable latching engagement with a mating contour of an adjustable control slide.
- the control slide can be adjusted to release this locking engagement in an unlocking position in which the Tastelement-locking contour and the control slide counter contour are disengaged.
- the already-pressed feeler element can be overridden starting from its depressed closed position over a second stroke to a release position.
- a control surface of the probe element pushes the control slide in the above-mentioned unlocking position.
- all scanning elements are reset from their open position to their closed position.
- sensing element of the control carriage is moved back from its unlocked position in the direction of its locking position. This ensures that the pressed into the release position probe element is still held in the open position in latching engagement with the control slide and - in contrast to the other probe elements - does not return to the closed position (ie initial position).
- the shower faucet is opened so always a jet of water exiting the shower head, whereby the non-pressure-resistant shower hose is not excessively pressure-loaded.
- the key element detent contour may be an elastically resilient detent arm, which is integrally formed on the probe element and has a locking cam at its free end.
- the control slide When pressing the probe element from the closed position to the open position (ie at a first stroke of the probe element) the control slide remains stationary in the direction of adjustment, that is unchanged, in its locking position and only the Tastelement-latching arm under elastic deformation with the Steuerschlitten- Counter contour brought into detent action. Only to release this latching engagement (that is, in a second stroke of the probe element), the control slide is moved in the direction of adjustment in an unlocking position in which the Tastelement-locking contour and the control slide counter contour are disengaged.
- the latching arm on the one hand must be designed sufficiently rigid component to ensure a safe latching engagement in the open position of the probe element (that is, after the first stroke).
- the locking arm must also be sufficient be elastically yielding, so that the latching engagement when overpressing the probe element in the release position (that is, the second stroke) is easily solvable.
- the object of the invention is to provide a sanitary shower with a shower head, in which the sensing elements are reliably and comfortably operated.
- the invention is based on the problem that in the above DE 10 2011 017 434 A1 the control slide is displaced both when pressing the probe element in the open position and the further over-pressing of the probe element in the release position in each case via a travel.
- a displacement of the control slide in the direction of adjustment is associated with correspondingly large actuation forces, which the user has to apply to the feeler elements.
- the control slide remains stationary when pressing the feeler element into the open position, that is to say unchanged, in its locking position and the control slide is moved into an unlocking position only for releasing the locking engagement of the pressed-in feeler element.
- the characterizing part of claim 1 in the unlocking the Tastelement-catch contour and the control slide counter contour viewed in the direction of the control slide offset by a length offset to each other so that the locking engagement between the Tastelement-catch contour and the control slide counter contour solved is.
- the unlocking position are therefore the probe element locking contour and the control slide counter contour, viewed in the direction of adjustment, offset by a free distance from each other.
- the mating contour can be adjusted from a latching position elastically yielding in a triggering position.
- the component-rigid base body and the elastically resilient mating contour can be made of the same material and / or in one piece. Alternatively, the component-rigid base body and the mating contour can also be made in two parts.
- the control slide counter contour In a sensing operation from the closed to the open position, the control slide counter contour can come under elastic deformation with the component-rigid probe locking contour in latching engagement.
- the detent contour cooperating therewith can be formed component-rigidly on the respective probe element.
- the stroke of the probe element can be divided into a first stroke between its closed position and its open position and in a subsequent second stroke from its open position to a release position.
- the release position is therefore achieved starting from the open position by an overpressing operation during the pressure actuation of the feeler element.
- a control surface of the probe element presses on a corresponding control surface of the control slide, whereby this is pressed the unlocking position.
- the feeler reaches over the first stroke in latching engagement with the control slide counter contour, while the control slide otherwise remains unchanged in its unlocked position. Only when contacting the control surfaces of the probe element and the control slide (that is, over the second stroke) is moved by stroke adjustment of the probe element in the release position of the control slide coupled in its unlocked position.
- control slide counter contour In the unlocking position of the control slide the control slide counter contour is unchanged in its rest position, that is, it is not adjusted elastically yielding in the release position. In this way, can be accomplished with reduced compared to the prior art manually applied pressure force of the tripping operation.
- the at least first and second probe element preferably act together on actuation of the first probe element as follows.
- the second probe element can be pressed into its release position.
- the control slide In the release position, due to the movement couplings set out above, the control slide is moved into the unlocking position, in which a latching engagement between the latching contours of the first / second feeler elements and the corresponding control slide counter contours is achieved.
- the first probe element readily jumps back into its initial position, that is to say into the closed position.
- the control slide from its unlocked position that is, back into the locking position
- led out led out.
- the second feeler element does not spring back into its closed position, but rather remains in latching engagement with the control slide countercontour (that is, in the open position).
- control slide counter contours provided for each probe element are connected to a common, are preferably formed integrally formed, spring-mounted locking element.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sanitärbrause mit einem Brausekopf nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a sanitary shower with a shower head according to the preamble of
Bei einer Sanitärbrause höherer Komfortklasse kann der Brausekopf ein Tastenfeld aufweisen, mit dem beim Duschvorgang in beliebiger Weise unterschiedliche Brausestrahlarten miteinander und/oder getrennt voneinander anwendbar sind.In a sanitary shower of higher comfort class, the shower head can have a keypad, with the showering process in any way different shower spray types are applicable to each other and / or separately.
Aus der
Zum Lösen dieses Rasteingriffs kann das bereits gedrückte Tastelement ausgehend von seiner eingedrückten Geschlossenposition über einen zweiten Hubweg bis in eine Freigabeposition überdrückt werden. In der Freigabeposition drückt eine Steuerfläche des Tastelementes den Steuerschlitten in die oben erwähnte Entriegelungsposition. Dies hat zur Folge, dass sämtliche Tastelemente von ihrer Offenposition in ihre Geschlossenposition rückgestellt werden. Beim Hochführen des in die Freigabeposition überdrückten Tastelementes wird der Steuerschlitten wieder aus seiner Entriegelungsposition in Richtung auf seine Verriegelungsposition zurückbewegt. Dadurch ist gewährleistet, dass das in die Freigabeposition überdrückte Tastelement nach wie vor in der Offenposition in Rasteingriff mit dem Steuerschlitten gehalten wird und - im Gegensatz zu den anderen Tastelementen - nicht in die Geschlossenposition (das heißt Ausgangslage) zurückspringt. Bei geöffneter Brause-Armatur tritt also stets ein Wasserstrahl aus dem Brausekopf aus, wodurch der nicht druckbeständige Brauseschlauch nicht übermäßig druckbelastet wird.To release this latching engagement, the already-pressed feeler element can be overridden starting from its depressed closed position over a second stroke to a release position. In the release position a control surface of the probe element pushes the control slide in the above-mentioned unlocking position. This has the consequence that all scanning elements are reset from their open position to their closed position. When raising the over-pressed into the release position sensing element of the control carriage is moved back from its unlocked position in the direction of its locking position. This ensures that the pressed into the release position probe element is still held in the open position in latching engagement with the control slide and - in contrast to the other probe elements - does not return to the closed position (ie initial position). When the shower faucet is opened so always a jet of water exiting the shower head, whereby the non-pressure-resistant shower hose is not excessively pressure-loaded.
Bei einem gattungsgemäßen Tastmechanismus kann die Tastenelement-Rastkontur ein elastisch nachgiebiger Rastarm sein, der am Tastelement angeformt ist und an seinem freien Ende einen Rastnocken aufweist. Beim Eindrücken des Tastelements von der Geschlossenposition in die Offenposition (das heißt bei einem ersten Hubweg des Tastelements) verbleibt der Steuerschlitten in der Stellrichtung ortsfest, das heißt unverändert, in seiner Verriegelungsposition und wird nur der Tastelement-Rastarm unter elastischer Verformung mit der die Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur in Rasteingriff gebracht. Erst zum Lösen dieses Rasteingriffs (das heißt bei einem zweiten Hubweg des Tastelements) wird der Steuerschlitten in der Stellrichtung in eine Entriegelungsposition verstellt, in der die Tastelement-Rastkontur und die Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur außer Eingriff sind.In a generic feeler mechanism, the key element detent contour may be an elastically resilient detent arm, which is integrally formed on the probe element and has a locking cam at its free end. When pressing the probe element from the closed position to the open position (ie at a first stroke of the probe element) the control slide remains stationary in the direction of adjustment, that is unchanged, in its locking position and only the Tastelement-latching arm under elastic deformation with the Steuerschlitten- Counter contour brought into detent action. Only to release this latching engagement (that is, in a second stroke of the probe element), the control slide is moved in the direction of adjustment in an unlocking position in which the Tastelement-locking contour and the control slide counter contour are disengaged.
In dem oben beschriebenen Tastmechanismus muss der Rastarm einerseits ausreichend bauteilsteif ausgelegt sein, um in der Offenposition des Tastelementes (das heißt nach erfolgtem ersten Hubweg) einen sicheren Rasteingriff zu gewährleisten. Andererseits muss der Rastarm auch ausreichend elastisch nachgiebig ausgeführt sein, damit der Rasteingriff beim Überdrücken des Tastelementes in die Freigabeposition (das heißt beim zweiten Hubweg) leichtgängig lösbar ist.In the sensing mechanism described above, the latching arm on the one hand must be designed sufficiently rigid component to ensure a safe latching engagement in the open position of the probe element (that is, after the first stroke). On the other hand, the locking arm must also be sufficient be elastically yielding, so that the latching engagement when overpressing the probe element in the release position (that is, the second stroke) is easily solvable.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine Sanitärbrause mit einem Brausekopf bereitzustellen, bei der die Tastelemente in zuverlässiger Weise sowie komfortabel betätigbar sind.The object of the invention is to provide a sanitary shower with a shower head, in which the sensing elements are reliably and comfortably operated.
Die Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst. Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen offenbart.The object is solved by the features of
Die Erfindung beruht auf der Problematik, dass in der oben genannten
Vor diesem Hintergrund verbleibt erfindungsgemäß der Steuerschlitten beim Eindrücken des Tastelementes in die Offenposition ortsfest, das heißt unverändert, in seiner Verriegelungsposition und wird der Steuerschlitten erst für ein Lösen des Rasteingriffes des eingedrückten Tastelementes in eine Entriegelungsposition verschoben. Zudem sind gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruches 1 in der Entriegelungsposition die Tastelement-Rastkontur und die Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur, in der Stellrichtung des Steuerschlittens betrachtet, um einen Längenversatz zueinander so versetzt, dass der Rasteingriff zwischen der Tastelement-Rastkontur und der Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur gelöst ist. In der Entriegelungsposition sind daher die Tastelement-Rastkontur und die Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur, in der Stellrichtung betrachtet, um einen freien Abstand voneinander versetzt.Against this background, according to the invention, the control slide remains stationary when pressing the feeler element into the open position, that is to say unchanged, in its locking position and the control slide is moved into an unlocking position only for releasing the locking engagement of the pressed-in feeler element. In addition, according to the characterizing part of
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung weist der Steuerschlitten einen bauteilsteifen Grundkörper auf, von dem die Gegenkontur elastisch nachgiebig getragen ist. Die Gegenkontur kann von einer Rastposition elastisch nachgiebig in eine Auslöseposition verstellt werden. Der bauteilsteife Grundkörper und die elastisch nachgiebige Gegenkontur können materialeinheitlich und/oder einstückig ausgeführt sein. Alternativ dazu kann der bauteilsteife Grundkörper und die Gegenkontur auch zweiteilig ausgeführt sein. Bei einem Tastvorgang von der Geschlossen- in die Offenposition kann die Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur unter elastischer Verformung mit der bauteilsteifen Tastelement-Rastkontur in Rasteingriff kommen. Im Gegensatz zur elastisch nachgiebigen Gegenkontur kann die damit zusammenwirkende Rastkontur bauteilsteif am jeweiligen Tastelement ausgebildet sein.In a preferred embodiment, the control slide on a component-rigid base body, of which the counter-contour is elastically yielding. The mating contour can be adjusted from a latching position elastically yielding in a triggering position. The component-rigid base body and the elastically resilient mating contour can be made of the same material and / or in one piece. Alternatively, the component-rigid base body and the mating contour can also be made in two parts. In a sensing operation from the closed to the open position, the control slide counter contour can come under elastic deformation with the component-rigid probe locking contour in latching engagement. In contrast to the elastically yielding mating contour, the detent contour cooperating therewith can be formed component-rigidly on the respective probe element.
Für eine komfortable Betätigung des Tastenfeldes ist ein einfaches sowie betriebssicheres Lösen des Rasteingriffes zwischen der Tastelement-Steuerkontur und der Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur von großer Relevanz. Vor diesem Hintergrund kann der Hubweg des Tastelementes in einen ersten Hubweg zwischen seiner Geschlossenposition und seiner Offenposition sowie in einen darauffolgenden zweiten Hubweg von seiner Offenposition in eine Freigabeposition unterteilt sein. Die Freigabeposition wird daher ausgehend von der Offenposition durch einen Überdrück-Vorgang bei der Druckbetätigung des Tastelementes erreicht. In der Freigabeposition drückt eine Steuerfläche des Tastelementes auf eine korrespondierende Steuerfläche des Steuerschlittens, wodurch dieser die Entriegelungsposition gedrückt wird. Dementsprechend gelangt das Tastelement über den ersten Hubweg in Rasteingriff mit der Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur, während der Steuerschlitten ansonsten unverändert in seiner Entriegelungsposition verbleibt. Erst bei Kontaktaufnahme der Steuerflächen des Tastelementes und des Steuerschlittens (das heißt über den zweiten Hubweg) wird durch Hubverstellung des Tastelementes in die Freigabeposition der Steuerschlitten bewegungsgekoppelt in seine Entriegelungsposition verstellt.For a comfortable operation of the keypad is a simple and reliable release of the locking engagement between the probe control contour and the control slide counter contour of great relevance. Against this background, the stroke of the probe element can be divided into a first stroke between its closed position and its open position and in a subsequent second stroke from its open position to a release position. The release position is therefore achieved starting from the open position by an overpressing operation during the pressure actuation of the feeler element. In the release position, a control surface of the probe element presses on a corresponding control surface of the control slide, whereby this is pressed the unlocking position. Accordingly, the feeler reaches over the first stroke in latching engagement with the control slide counter contour, while the control slide otherwise remains unchanged in its unlocked position. Only when contacting the control surfaces of the probe element and the control slide (that is, over the second stroke) is moved by stroke adjustment of the probe element in the release position of the control slide coupled in its unlocked position.
In der Entriegelungsposition des Steuerschlittens ist die Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur unverändert in ihrer Rastposition, das heißt sie wird nicht in die Auslöseposition elastisch nachgiebig verstellt. Auf diese Weise kann mit im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik reduzierter manuell aufgebrachter Druckkraft der Auslösevorgang bewerkstelligt werden.In the unlocking position of the control slide the control slide counter contour is unchanged in its rest position, that is, it is not adjusted elastically yielding in the release position. In this way, can be accomplished with reduced compared to the prior art manually applied pressure force of the tripping operation.
Das zumindest erste und zweite Tastelement wirken bevorzugt bei Betätigung des ersten Tastelementes wie folgt zusammen. So kann zum Rückstellen des ersten Tastelementes von seiner Offenposition in seine Geschlossenposition das zweite Tastelement bis in seine Freigabeposition gedrückt werden. In der Freigabeposition ist aufgrund der oben dargelegten Bewegungskopplungen der Steuerschlitten in die Entriegelungsposition verstellt, in der ein Rasteingriff zwischen den Rastkonturen der ersten/zweiten Tastelemente sowie der korrespondierenden Steuerschlitten-Gegenkonturen gelöst ist. Auf diese Weise springt das erste Tastelement ohne weiteres in seine Ausgangslage, das heißt in die Geschlossenposition, zurück. Beim Hochführen des zweiten Tastelementes wird dagegen der Steuerschlitten aus seiner Entriegelungsposition (das heißt zurück in die Verriegelungsposition) herausgeführt. Dadurch kann das zweite Tastelement nicht in seine Geschlossenposition zurückspringen, sondern bleibt vielmehr in Rasteingriff mit der Steuerschlitten-Gegenkontur (das heißt in der Offenposition).The at least first and second probe element preferably act together on actuation of the first probe element as follows. Thus, to reset the first probe element from its open position to its closed position, the second probe element can be pressed into its release position. In the release position, due to the movement couplings set out above, the control slide is moved into the unlocking position, in which a latching engagement between the latching contours of the first / second feeler elements and the corresponding control slide counter contours is achieved. In this way, the first probe element readily jumps back into its initial position, that is to say into the closed position. When raising the second probe element, however, the control slide from its unlocked position (that is, back into the locking position) led out. As a result, the second feeler element does not spring back into its closed position, but rather remains in latching engagement with the control slide countercontour (that is, in the open position).
Im Sinne einer Bauteilreduzierung ist es von Vorteil, wenn die für jedes Tastelement vorgesehene Steuerschlitten-Gegenkonturen an einem gemeinsamen, bevorzugt einteilig ausgebildeten, federnd gelagerten Verriegelungselement ausgebildet sind.In the sense of a component reduction, it is advantageous if the control slide counter contours provided for each probe element are connected to a common, are preferably formed integrally formed, spring-mounted locking element.
Die vorstehend erläuterten und/oder in den Unteransprüchen wiedergegebenen vorteilhaften Aus- und/oder Weiterbildungen der Erfindung können - außer zum Beispiel in den Fällen eindeutiger Abhängigkeiten oder unvereinbarer Alternativen - einzeln oder aber auch in beliebiger Kombination zur Anwendung kommen.The advantageous embodiments and / or developments of the invention explained above and / or reproduced in the subclaims can be used individually or else in any desired combination-except, for example, in the case of clear dependencies or incompatible alternatives.
Die Erfindung und ihre vorteilhaften Aus- und Weiterbildungen sowie deren Vorteile werden nachfolgend anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert.The invention and its advantageous embodiments and further developments and advantages thereof are explained in more detail below with reference to drawings.

Die Taster 2 bis 5 sind manuell druckbetätigbar, wobei der Tastmechanismus 7 so ausgelegt ist, dass stets einer der Taster 2 bis 5 in seiner Offenposition O gehalten ist, um eine übermäßige Druckbeaufschlagung des an sich nicht druckbeständig ausgeführten Brauseschlauchs 9 zu vermeiden. Zur Rückstellung von eingedrückten Tastern 2 bis 5 wird einer der Taster bis in eine später beschriebene Freigabeposition F überdrückt. In der Freigabeposition F springen - mit Ausnahme des manuell eingedrückten Tasters - die anderen Taster wieder in die Ausgangslage, das heißt in die Geschlossenposition G, zurück. Der manuell in die Freigabeposition F eingedrückte Taster verbleibt demgegenüber beim Rückführen in seiner Offenposition O, um die vorerwähnte Wasserdruckbelastung des Brauseschlauches 9 zu vermeiden.The

Gegebenenfalls können auch weitere Tastelemente 12, 13, 14 in ihre Offenposition O gedrückt sein. Um diese weiteren Tastelemente wieder in die Geschlossenposition G rückzuführen, kann eines der bereits eingedrückten Tastelemente, zum Beispiel das Tastelement 11, über einen zweiten Hubweg Δh2 von der in der Fig. 7 gestrichelt gezeigten Offenposition O weiter in eine Freigabeposition F überdrückt werden. Bei der Hubbewegung Δh2 in die Freigabeposition F drückt eine rampenförmige Steuerfläche 33 (
Mit der Stellbewegung Δy bis in die Entriegelungsposition E wird der Steuerschlitten-Rastnocken 31, in der Stellrichtung y des Steuerschlittens 19 betrachtet, so verlagert, dass der Rasteingriff zwischen dem Tastelement-Haltenocken 27 und dem Steuerschlitten-Rastnocken 31 gelöst ist, wie es in der

Die Rückstellung in die Geschlossenposition G erfolgt bei allen eingedrückten Tastelementen, mit Ausnahme des bis in die Freigabeposition F druckbetätigten Tastelementes 11. Beim Hochführen des in die Freigabeposition F betätigten Tastelementes 11 verlagert sich nämlich der Steuerschlitten 19 bereits wieder aus einer Entriegelungsposition E in Richtung auf seine Verriegelungsposition V. Dadurch kann das Tastelement 11 nicht mehr an dem Steuerschlitten-Rastnocken 31 vorbei in seine Geschlossenposition G geführt werden, sondern verrastet der Tastelement-Haltenocken 27 abermals mit dem Steuerschlitten-Rastnocken 31, wodurch das Tastelement 11 in der Offenposition O gehalten bleibt.The return to the closed position G takes place in all pressed-in feeler elements, except for the push-to-release position F pressure-actuated
