Definitions
- the invention relates to a drive device for a sprinkler device or the like.
- a drive device for a sprinkler device or the like has a liquid or flow drive, in particular in that at least part of the water to be discharged with the sprinkler device is used to drive at least one movement of the sprinkler device or the like.
- a liquid guide is provided in a housing, to which a drive rotor is exposed, which possibly performs the desired movement function via a gear, so that advantageous effects result.
- the gear unit also runs in a water bath.
- the gear unit can be mounted on a carrier fastened on a hollow axle directly behind the turbine wheel and within the water-filled housing in engage an inner ring gear that is connected to the housing.
- the invention is further based on the object of avoiding disadvantages of known solutions and, in particular, of creating a drive device of the type mentioned which enables a further improved functionality and in particular a particularly compact design.
- the transmission is shifted substantially out of the water-carrying areas and is preferably arranged in a separate gear chamber, so that its output member, for example an output pinion, without special sealing problems and can therefore be made accessible for the drive intervention in a space-saving manner.
- its output member for example an output pinion
- contamination of the gearbox due to water contamination is avoided, and the gearbox runs particularly smoothly with a lubricant or by using self-lubricating materials for the gearwheels.
- the transmission is expediently arranged in a transmission chamber which is substantially circular in cross section and which can extend over an arc angle of less than 180 °, so that it takes up very little space.
- the gear chamber is expediently delimited on the outer circumference by a part of an axially symmetrical or approximately cylindrical housing shell and within this housing shell by, for example, an approximately flat intermediate wall which is approximately parallel to the housing axis, so that the remaining, possibly Larger part of the interior of this housing shell is available for water management.
- the gear chamber is closed with transverse walls in which all gear axes can be held and which expediently go over the entire inside width of the housing shell, but are provided with corresponding openings in the area of the water-carrying chamber next to the gear for water passage.
- the last-mentioned water-carrying chamber which lies at least partially essentially in the same longitudinal section of the housing as the gear chamber, can furthermore be used for accommodating further functional parts of the drive device.
- a changeover valve or the like A changeover device is accommodated within this chamber, by means of which the drive rotor or the output pinion of the transmission can be driven alternately in both directions of rotation in such a way that a changeover element is dependent on the rotation path by the movement generated by the drive device is converted.
- Said longitudinal section of the housing is thus subdivided into at least one drying chamber separated from the water supply and at least one water-carrying wet chamber, it being possible for appropriate functional parts to be accommodated in each chamber.
- a chamber accommodating the drive rotor expediently closes in the longitudinal direction of the housing directly to the said longitudinal section to the front, ie in the direction of what ser trimflußes, at, this rotor chamber can be separated from the adjacent chambers next to each other by the associated, continuous transverse wall in which the drive rotor is to be stored.

- the drive rotor arranged axially parallel to the housing is arranged eccentrically with respect to the housing or the rotor chamber lying in the housing axis, its outer diameter being correspondingly smaller compared to the inner width of the rotor chamber.
- the rotor axis of the drive rotor can be laid close to the transmission axes on the one hand, and on the other hand, drive nozzles or associated nozzle channels or the associated nozzle channels can be accommodated in a space-saving manner between the region of the housing shell which is further away from the outer periphery of the drive rotor and can be designed with a relatively large cross section.
- the axial extent of the rotor chamber need only be slightly larger than that of the drive rotor, while the axial extent of the transverse divided chambers adjoining in the longitudinal direction need only be approximately as large as the associated gear length.
- the housing can moreover have a smaller outside width than in the area of the gear chamber, so that the end chamber, which closes it, can be overlapped with an annular collar, the outside width of which is equal to that of the housing in the area of the gear chamber.
- the transmission expediently has a very high reduction ratio, so that the drive rotor can be operated at high speed.
- This reduction ratio and the sealed mounting of the drive rotor mean that the transmission can be essentially self-locking when it is driven from the side of its output pinion.

- the overload clutch can also be provided in drive devices other than those described.
- a particularly advantageous further development, in particular of a drive device of the type described, also results from the fact that the water flow entering the housing of the water motor depends on the flow quantity or of the pressure can be at least partially passed around the drive rotor so that the corresponding partial flow does not act on the drive rotor in the sense of the drive action, although this partial flow is passed through the rotor chamber and is, for example, only prevented from acting on the drive rotor by guide elements.
- the partial flow is expediently controlled by at least one pressure relief valve between a water-carrying chamber lying to the side of the gear chamber and the rotor chamber, the valve closing part in the form of a simple plate in the rotor chamber being able to be pressed resiliently against a passage opening in such a way that it lifts off when a predetermined pressure is reached and releases the passage bypassing the valve channel or channels.
