Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sanitärarmatur nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a sanitary fitting according to the preamble of claim 1.
Aus der
Die oben dargelegte Wasserführung vom Kartuscheneinsatz bis zur Mousseureinheit ist mehrteilig mit einer Anzahl von Dichtelementen, das heißt bauteilaufwendig sowie montagetechnisch aufwendig, ausgeführt.The water flow from the cartridge insert to the mousse unit set forth above is made in several parts with a number of sealing elements, that is to say, expensive in terms of components and complex in terms of assembly technology.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine Sanitärarmatur bereitzustellen, bei der die Wasserführung im Armaturengehäuse der Sanitärarmatur mit reduziertem Bauteilaufwand sowie Montageaufwand bereitstellbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a sanitary fitting in which the water supply in the fitting housing of the sanitary fitting with reduced component costs and assembly costs can be provided.
Die Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen offenbart.The object is solved by the features of claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the invention are disclosed in the subclaims.
Die Erfindung beruht auf dem Grundgedanken, am flexiblen Mischwasserschlauch, der durch den Wasserauslauf einer Sanitärarmatur geführt ist, zusätzliche Aufnahmegeometrien für andere Wasserführungs-Komponenten bzw. Dichtkomponenten zu integrieren, wodurch der Bauteilaufwand sowie der Montageaufwand beim Zusammenbau der Sanitärarmatur reduziert ist. Vor diesem Hintergrund geht gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruches 1 der flexible Mischwasserschlauch an seiner Einlassseite in eine hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme über. Die hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme umgreift den Kartuscheneinsatz flüssigkeitsdicht. Zudem ist in der Hülsenwand der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme ein Durchlass ausgebildet, über den das Mischwasser vom Kartuscheneinsatz in den flexiblen Mischwasserschlauch abströmt. Auf diese Weise ist eine im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik montagetechnisch einfachere flüssigkeitsdichte Wasserführung in der Sanitärarmatur realisiert und der Bauteilaufwand bei der Bereitstellung der Wasserführung reduziert.The invention is based on the idea of the flexible mixing water hose, which is guided through the water outlet of a sanitary fitting to integrate additional receiving geometries for other water supply components or sealing components, whereby the component cost and the assembly cost when assembling the sanitary fitting is reduced. Against this background, according to the characterizing part of claim 1, the flexible mixing water hose passes on its inlet side into a sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle. The sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle surrounds the cartridge insert liquid-tight. In addition, in the sleeve wall of the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle, a passage is formed, via which the mixed water flows from the cartridge insert into the flexible mixing water hose. In this way, compared to the prior art mounting technology simpler liquid-tight water flow is realized in the sanitary fitting and reduces the component cost in providing the water flow.
Mittels der Erfindung ist eine metallkontaktfreie Wasserführung durch die Sanitärarmatur gewährleistet. Der flexible Mischwasserschlauch mit daran angeformter Aufnahme- oder Dichtgeometrie kann bevorzugt aus physiologisch unbedenklichem Material, z.B. PE oder PP, hergestellt sein.By means of the invention, a metal contact-free water supply is ensured by the sanitary fitting. The flexible mixing water hose having a receiving or sealing geometry formed thereon can preferably be made of physiologically acceptable material, e.g. PE or PP.
In einer technischen Umsetzung ist der an der zylindrischen Mischkartusche ausgebildete Mischwasser-Anschluss nicht als ein radial abragender Anschlussstutzen realisiert, sondern vielmehr eine einfache Mischwasser-Austrittsöffnung, die flächenbündig in eine zylindrische Seitenwand des Kartuscheneinsatzes mündet. Der Öffnungsrandbereich der Mischwasser-Austrittsöffnung bildet eine Dichtfläche, an der eine Innenseite der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme flüssigkeitsdicht anliegt. Bevorzugt ist es, wenn die Innenseite der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme komplett glattzylindrisch ausgeführt ist, um eine einwandfreie Flächendichtung zu erzielen. Im Hinblick auf eine einwandfreie Flüssigkeitsdichtung ist es bevorzugt, wenn die hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme in der Axialrichtung beidseitig der Mischwasser-Austrittsöffnung des Kartuscheneinsatzes über Dichtzonen (das heißt über O-Dichtringe) in flüssigkeitsdichter Anlage mit dem Kartuscheneinsatz ist.In a technical implementation of the formed on the cylindrical mixing cartridge mixing water connection is not realized as a radially projecting connection piece, but rather a simple mixing water outlet opening, which opens flush with the surface in a cylindrical side wall of the cartridge insert. The opening edge region of the mixing water outlet opening forms a sealing surface against which an inner side of the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle rests in a liquid-tight manner. It is preferred if the inside of the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle is designed completely smooth cylindrical in order to achieve a perfect surface seal. With regard to a perfect liquid seal, it is preferred if the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle in the axial direction On both sides of the mixing water outlet opening of the cartridge insert via sealing zones (that is, via O-rings) in liquid-tight contact with the cartridge insert.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsvariante ist es im Hinblick auf eine Montagevereinfachung sowie Bauteilreduzierung bevorzugt, wenn der flexible Mischwasserschlauch zusammen mit der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme und ggf. einer später beschriebenen Mousseur-Aufnahme eine einteilige Vormontageeinheit bildet. Bevorzugt kann der flexible Mischwasserschlauch materialeinheitlich oder einstückig an der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme angeformt sein.In a preferred embodiment, it is preferred in terms of simplification of assembly and component reduction when the flexible mixing water hose together with the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle and optionally a mousseur recording described later forms a one-piece pre-assembly. Preferably, the flexible mixed water hose can be integrally formed integrally or integrally on the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle.
Die oben erwähnte Vormontageeinheit kann durch ein Kunststoff-Spritzblasverfahren hergestellt sein. Bei diesem Fertigungsverfahren wird ein gespritzter Vorformling in einem Blasformwerkzeug in seine endgültige Form gebracht. Der Blasformprozess ermöglicht die Herstellung einer Hinterschnittgeometrie, die im Spritzgießverfahren nicht herstellbar ist. Mit dem Kunststoff-Spritzblasverfahren kann ohne weiteres die erfindungsgemäße Wasserführung (d.h. der oben erwähnte Mischwasserschlauch mit angeformter Aufnahmegeometrie) mit Wellschlauch-Geometrie hergestellt werden.The above-mentioned pre-assembly unit may be made by a plastic injection-blow molding method. In this manufacturing process, a molded preform is placed in a blow mold in its final shape. The blow molding process makes it possible to produce an undercut geometry that can not be produced by injection molding. With the plastic injection-blow molding method, the water guide according to the invention (i.e., the above-mentioned mixed-water hose with molded-in receiving geometry) can be readily manufactured with corrugated tube geometry.
Alternativ zu einer solchen materialeinheitlichen, einteiligen Ausbildung kann der Mischwasser-Anschluss des Kartuscheneinsatzes auch mehrteilig wie folgt ausgeführt sein: So kann der flexible Mischwasserschlauch anschlussseitig einen radial nach außen abgewinkelten Dichtflansch aufweisen, der einen Schlaucheinlass des flexiblen Mischwasserschlauches umzieht. Die hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme kann zudem zweilagig aufgebaut sein, und zwar mit einer Innenhülse und einer Außenhülse, zwischen denen der Dichtflansch des flexiblen Mischwasserschlauches flüssigkeitsdicht eingefügt ist.As an alternative to such a material-integral, one-part design, the mixing water connection of the cartridge insert can also be designed in several parts as follows: Thus, the flexible mixing water hose connection side have a radially outwardly angled sealing flange which moves a hose inlet of the flexible mixing water hose. The sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle can also be constructed in two layers, with an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve, between which the sealing flange of the flexible mixing water hose is inserted liquid-tight.
Am Armaturengehäuse der Sanitärarmatur kann in gängiger Praxis ein radial nach außen abragender Wasserauslauf angeformt sein, durch den der flexible Mischwasserschlauch bis zu einer Auslaufmündung des Wasserauslaufes geführt ist. An der Auslaufmündung des Wasserauslaufes kann in bekannter Weise eine Mousseureinheit montiert sein und flüssigkeitsdicht an einem Schlauchauslass des flexiblen Mischwasserschlauches angeschlossen sein. Der flüssigkeitsdichte Anschluss der Mousseureinheit kann bevorzugt wie folgt realisiert sein: So kann der flexible Mischwasserschlauch an seinem Schlauchauslass, insbesondere materialeinheitlich und/oder einstückig, in eine hülsenförmige oder topfförmige Mousseur-Aufnahme übergehen. Die am flexiblen Mischwasserschlauch angeformte hülsenförmige Mousseur-Aufnahme kann montagetechnisch einfach in eine flüssigkeitsdichte Steckverbindung mit der Mousseureinheit gebracht sein.On the valve body of the sanitary fitting, a radially outwardly projecting water outlet can be formed in common practice, through which the flexible mixing water hose up to an outlet mouth of the water outlet is guided. At the outlet of the water outlet can be mounted in a known manner, a mousse unit and liquid-tight connected to a hose outlet of the flexible mixing water hose. The liquid-tight connection of the mousse unit can preferably be realized as follows: Thus, the flexible mixing water hose at its hose outlet, in particular uniform material and / or in one piece, pass into a sleeve-shaped or cup-shaped mousseur. The sleeve-shaped mousseur holder, which is molded onto the flexible mixing water hose, can easily be put into a liquid-tight plug connection with the mousse unit for assembly purposes.
Konkret kann der flexible Mischwasserschlauch mit seinem Schlauchauslass in eine Hülsenwand der hülsenförmigen Mousseur-Aufnahme einmünden, und zwar unter Bildung eines Inneneckbereiches, der zwischen dem flexiblen Mischwasserschlauch und der Hülsenwand der hülsenförmigen Mousseur-Aufnahme aufgespannt ist. Die hülsenförmige Mousseur-Aufnahme kann (unter Bildung der obigen flüssigkeitsdichten Steckverbindung) in einen korrespondierenden Anschlussstutzen der Mousseureinheit flüssigkeitsdicht eingeschoben sein, und zwar derart, dass der Anschlussstutzen der Mousseureinheit im obigen Inneneckbereich stirnseitig in Anlage mit dem flexiblen Mischwasserschlauch ist.Specifically, the flexible mixed water hose can open with its hose outlet in a sleeve wall of the sleeve-shaped mousseur recording, to form a Inneneckbereiches spanned between the flexible mixing water hose and the sleeve wall of the sleeve-shaped mousseur recording. The sleeve-shaped mousseur receptacle can be inserted liquid-tightly into a corresponding connecting piece of the mousse unit (with the formation of the above liquid-tight plug-in connection) in such a way that the connection piece of the mousse unit in the above inner corner region is in contact with the flexible mixing water hose.
Die Mousseureinheit kann zweiteilig ausgeführt sein, und zwar aus einem Mousseur sowie einem Befestigungsring, in dessen Innengewinde der Mousseur verschraubt ist. Der Befestigungsring kann mit seinem Außengewinde in die Wasserauslauf-Mündung eingeschraubt sein. In diesem Fall kann der Befestigungsring einen durchmessergroßen Ringabschnitt aufweisen, in dem sowohl das Innengewinde als auch das Außengewinde ausgebildet ist. Der durchmessergroße Ringabschnitt kann an einer Ringschulter in einen durchmesserkleinen Ringabschnitt übergehen, der den oben erwähnten Anschlussstutzen bildet, der in Steckverbindung mit der hülsenförmigen Mousseur-Aufnahme ist.The mousse unit can be made in two parts, namely a mousseur and a mounting ring, in the internal thread of the mousseur is screwed. The mounting ring can be screwed with its external thread in the water outlet mouth. In this case, the mounting ring may have a large diameter ring portion in which both the internal thread and the external thread is formed. The large diameter ring portion may merge at an annular shoulder into a small diameter annular portion forming the above-mentioned spigot which is in mating connection with the sleeve-shaped mousseur receptacle.
Die hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme, der flexible Mischwasserschlauch und die hülsenförmige Mousseur-Aufnahme kann ein einteiliges Kunststoff-Spritzgussteil sein, wobei die hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme Sollverformungsstellen aufweisen kann, die als Montagehilfe beim Zusammenbau der Sanitärarmatur dienen. Die Sollverformungsstellen können als nutförmige Materialaussparungen mit schmalen Materialstegen ausgeführt sein, die sich in der Axialrichtung außenseitig an der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Ausnahme erstrecken.The sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle, the flexible mixing water hose and the sleeve-shaped mousseur receptacle can be a one-piece plastic injection molded part, wherein the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert receptacle can have predetermined deformation points, which serve as an assembly aid in assembling the plumbing fixture. The Sollverformungsstellen can be designed as groove-shaped material recesses with narrow webs of material extending in the axial direction on the outside of the sleeve-shaped cartridge insert exception.
Eine weitere Montagevereinfachung ergibt sich durch eine möglichst flexible Gestaltung des Mischwasserschlauches. Vor diesem Hintergrund kann der Mischwasserschlauch bevorzugt eine Wellschlauch-Geometrie aufweisen.A further simplification of the assembly results from a flexible design of the mixed water hose. Against this background, the mixing water hose can preferably have a corrugated hose geometry.

Ein wesentlicher Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft die Gestaltung des Mischwasser-Anschlusses 27. Dieser ist durch eine hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme 29 realisiert, die materialeinheitlich und einstückig an dem flexiblen Mischwasserschlauch 19 angeformt ist. Die hülsenförmige Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme 29 umgreift den Kartuscheneinsatz 7 flüssigkeitsdicht, wobei in deren Hülsenwand 31 ein Durchlass 33 ausgebildet ist, über den das Mischwasser von einer Mischwasser-Austrittsöffnung 35 des Kartuscheneinsatzes 7 abströmt. Die Mischwasser-Austrittsöffnung 35 mündet in eine zylindrische Seitenwand des Kartuscheneinsatzes 7, an der eine glattzylindrische Innenseite der hülsenförmigen Kartuscheneinsatz-Aufnahme 29 flüssigkeitsdicht anliegt. Im Hinblick auf eine einwandfreie Abdichtung sind in der Axialrichtung beidseitig der Mischwasser-Austrittsöffnung 35 des Kartuscheinsatzes 7 Lagerstellen für O-Dichtringe 37 bereitgestellt.An essential aspect of the invention relates to the design of the
