- a permanent magnet is arranged on the valve body and with the aid of a magnetic-field-sensitive sensor, the valve body can be detected as a function of its position in the flow channel.
- the pressure prevailing downstream of the check valve rises within a short time via a switching threshold and the motor of the liquid pump arrangement is switched off by the pressure switch. If the user releases the liquid delivery at the liquid delivery device at a later time, the valve body lifts off from the valve seat and is detected by the magnetic-field-sensitive sensor, which then provides a sensor signal under which the motor is switched on again.
- Object of the present invention is to provide a control device of the type mentioned in such a way that it allows a more cost-effective control of the liquid pump assembly.
- the flow channel has a closing region and a release region, wherein the flow connection between the channel inlet and the channel outlet in a positioning of the valve body in the closing area is interruptible and releasable in a positioning of the valve body in the release area wherein the valve body in the closing area in response to the force acting on the valve body pressure of the liquid against the action of one or more return elements is movable and wherein the valve body in the release region depending on the flow rate of the flow channel flowing liquid against the action of one or more return elements movable is.
- the valve body of the control device can move within the flow channel in a closing region and in a release region. If the valve body is in the closing area, it interrupts the flow connection between the channel inlet and the channel outlet.
- the closing region may, for example, extend over a length of about one quarter to about three quarters of the total length of the flow channel.
- the position which the valve body assumes within the closing region depends on the pressure acting on the valve body. This is the pressure of the liquid that prevails when the flow communication between the channel inlet and the channel outlet downstream of the valve body is interrupted. If the valve body is in the release area, it releases the flow connection between the channel inlet and the channel outlet.
- the release area may extend, for example, over a length of about one quarter to about three quarters of the total length of the flow channel.
- the position occupied by the valve body within the release area is determined by the flow rate of the flow mungskanal flowing liquid dependent. At a low flow rate, the valve body occupies a position within the release area at a closer distance to the closing area, and at a high flow rate, the valve body within the release area occupies a position at a greater distance from the closing area.

If the user stops the liquid delivery of the liquid pump assembly by the user closes the liquid delivery member, then the valve body is no longer flowed around by liquid. This has the consequence that the valve body moves under the action of at least one restoring element in the direction of the closing area in a rest position.
- the reaching of the rest position can be detected by the sensor device and then the motor of the liquid pump arrangement can be switched off. With the switching off of the motor eliminates the conveying effect of the pump and the enclosed between the valve body of the control device and the liquid discharge member and pressurized liquid moves the valve body within the closing area against the action of at least one return element in the release area facing away Direction in a predetermined closed position.

Liquid may flow from the channel inlet 66 through the annular gap 124 to the channel outlets 68, 70 when the valve body 86 occupies a position within the release area 120. However, if the valve body 86 is in the closing area 118, the flow connection between the channel inlet 66 and the channel outlets 68, 70 is interrupted by the valve body 86.
- the release area 120 is aligned coaxially with the closing area 118.
- the flow channel 54 is configured conically in the closing area 118, wherein it widens with increasing distance from the channel inlet 66. This has the consequence that the sealing lip 92 is subject to an increasing radially inwardly directed pressing force, the farther the valve body 86 moves in the direction away from the release region 120 - in FIGS. 2 to 5, ie upwards. The increasing pressing force increases the sealing effect of the sealing lip 92.
- the release region 120 connects to a first portion 121 which extends to the edge of the channel outlets 68, 70.
- the release area 120 forms a second partial area 123, which due to the channel outlets 68, 70 has a larger flow cross section than the first subregion 121. The flow cross section therefore changes abruptly during the transition from the first subregion 121 to the second subregion 123.
- the two sensor elements 112 and 114 are configured in the form of magnetic field-sensitive sensors which are electrically connected to the motor control 24 via a sensor line 126.
- the valve body 86 is reciprocally movable within the flow passage 54 in response to the pressure and flow connections forming within the flow passage 54 in the axial direction. As already explained, it breaks the flow connection between the channel inlet 66 and the channel outlets 68, 70 when it is within the closing area 118 and releases the flow communication between the channel inlet 66 and the channel outlets 68, 70 as it moves within the Release area 120 is located.
- valve body 86 assumes a closed position adjacent to the first sensor element 112, as shown in FIG. 5, then it is located in the detection area of the first sensor element 112 and is detected by it. In the closed position, the valve body 86 completely interrupts the flow connection between the channel inlet 66 and the channel outlets 68, 70.
- valve body 86 assumes a rest position adjacent to the second sensor element 114, as shown in FIG. 4, then it is located in the detection area of the second sensor element 114 and is detected by it. In the rest position, the valve body 86 can be flowed around by the liquid at a flow rate of a maximum of 60 l / h. In the rest position, the valve body 86 is located in the first subregion 121 of the release region 120.
- the two sensor elements 112, 114 are arranged at such a distance from each other that their detection areas do not overlap but join each other.
- valve body 86 If the valve body 86 is located in the second subregion 123 of the release region 120, i. E. in the region of the channel outlets 68, 70, it occupies a clear distance from the first sensor element 112 and the second sensor element 114 and can not be detected by the sensor elements 112 and 114. If neither a sensor signal is provided by the first sensor element 112 nor by the second sensor element 114, this indicates that the valve body 86 assumes a release position, as illustrated in FIG. The valve body 86 assumes this release position if the liquid pump 22 is switched on and liquid is dispensed from the liquid pump 22 via the pump outlet 36. In this case, the flow passage 54 is traversed by liquid, under the action of the valve body 86 is moved against the spring force of the second return spring 98 in the channel inlet 66 facing away from the direction.
- valve body 86 initially assumes its rest position under the action of the second return spring 98. If the main switch 26 is subsequently actuated, then the electric motor 20 is switched on, whereby any signals of the sensor elements 112, 114 are initially ignored. After a short period of time, which may be 30 seconds, for example, the position of the valve body 86 is queried. During proper operation, the valve body 86 is due to the liquid flowing around it in its release position and thus outside the detection ranges of the sensor elements 112, 114, as shown in Figure 3.
- valve body 86 If the valve body 86 is still in its rest position and thus in the detection range of the second sensor element 114 after the said period of time has elapsed, and is detected by the latter This indicates a lack of flow around, for example because of a disturbance, for example due to a lack of liquid, so that there is a risk of damaging the liquid pump 22. In this case, the electric motor 20 is turned off. If the valve body 86 is outside the detection ranges of the two sensor elements 112, 114 at the end of the stated period, then it assumes its release position and the electric motor 20 remains in operation, so that liquid from the garden pump 10, for example via a garden hose and at the free end can be dispensed connected to the garden hose fluid delivery device.
- the electric motor 20 is turned off due to the sensor signal provided by the second sensor element 114.
- a fluid pressure builds up in the garden hose, which acts as an accumulator.
- the fluid enclosed between the valve body 86 and the fluid delivery member pushes the valve body 86 into the closed position shown in FIG. 5 and thus into the detection area of the first sensor element 112.
- the garden pump 10 is now in a stable standby mode. Status.
- the valve body 86 When the liquid discharge is released by the user by opening the liquid discharge member, the pressure falls downstream of the valve body 86, and under the action of the third return spring 100, the valve body 86 is moved out of the detection range of the first sensor element 112 toward the release region 120.
- the first sensor signal provided by the first sensor element 112 thereby drops and due to this signal drop the electric motor 20 is switched on again.
- the liquid pump 22 is thereby put back into operation and the valve body 86 is moved by the liquid flowing around it back into the release position shown in Figure 3.
- the valve body 86 in this case moves briefly through the detection range of the second sensor element 114, so that it is briefly detected by the second sensor element 114 and the second sensor element provides a short-term, pulse-like sensor signal.
- This short-term sensor signal has no change in the operation of the electric motor 20 result. Rather, the sensor device recognizes 108 from the chronological order of the sensor signals of the sensor elements 112, 114, the direction of movement of the valve body 86 which moves in the present case after switching on the liquid pump 22 properly in a release position.
- the control device 50 thus makes it possible, in a structurally simple manner, to switch the electric motor 20 on and off as a function of the pressure and flow conditions prevailing in the flow channel 54 and at the same time provides a check valve for the garden pump 10.
