Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hydromassage nozzle which can be supplied with a liquid and a gaseous medium from various sources, both media being able to be ejected individually, but also as a mixture, into the interior of a sanitary water basin, at least the liquid one Medium or a mixture of both media in relation to the mouth of the jet nozzle with variable divergence into the interior of a water basin sucked-in air fractions on the side walls of the water basin rises vertically, disadvantageously the user of such a basin cannot be detected by the essentially horizontal flow and the air fractions rising on the side walls of the basin hardly contribute to an effective underwater massage. In this respect, with this jet nozzle, at best near the side walls, "aeration" of the pool water content is possible.
  • a hydromassage nozzle is known from US Pat. No. 3,905,358 which, in principle, produces a water / air mixture which can be ejected in the axial direction of a water jet pump, the direction of the mixture which can be ejected from the nozzle mouth being orientable by means of a manually pivotable ball nozzle.
  • the object of the invention is to improve the comfort of a known hydromassage nozzle in such a way that both a flow with a substantially horizontal orientation and a flow with a substantially axial orientation can be emitted from the mouth of the hydromassage nozzle into the interior of the water basin.
  • Another object of the invention is to design a hydromassage nozzle in such a way that the orientation of the mixture which can be expelled from the mouth of the sleeve can be carried out without deflecting means, and the cross section of the outlet opening of the hydromassage nozzle has the smallest possible cross section.
  • the object of the invention is to design a hydromassage nozzle in such a way that the orientation of the media which can be ejected from the nozzle mouth can be varied between a substantially axially directed jet flow and a flow diverging from the axial direction, preferably continuously between essentially axial and diverging orientation is.
  • a hydromassage nozzle with a nozzle housing, the interior of which is designed as a swirl chamber.
  • the interior is preferably circular cylindrical.
  • the interior is formed between two opposing, preferably flat, lateral boundary walls and a radial, round to spiral peripheral boundary wall, at least one radially from the outside, preferably in the region of the largest cross section of the interior of the nozzle housing, in any case tangentially the first fluid supply channel opens, which fluid supply channel can be supplied with a pressurized liquid medium from the outside, one of the lateral boundary walls having a swirl chamber outlet opening in its center and a second fluid supply channel which can be acted on with a liquid or gaseous medium is provided, which leads from the outside into the swirl chamber and with its transformation passes through the swirl chamber essentially axially and essentially at the height of the Vortex chamber outlet opening opens with a central outlet opening, a free annular gap being formed in the one lateral boundary wall between the peripheral wall of the second fluid supply channel and the vortex chamber outlet opening.
  • the design has the advantage that when the pressurized liquid medium is supplied within the swirl chamber, the flow threads of the flow run from radially tangential outside to central inward, and a negative pressure zone can be generated relative to the tangential mouth of the supply channel in the region of the swirl chamber outlet opening arranged centrally inside and consequently the liquid medium which can be dispensed into the interior of the tub at the annular gap assumes a radially outwardly diverging orientation. If the second centrally arranged, ventable fluid supply channel is then also ventilated, a gaseous medium can be admixed to the radially outwardly dispensable liquid medium.
  • the configuration has the advantage that the diverging orientation of the medium that can be dispensed from the annular gap takes place without deflection means.
  • the configuration has the further advantage that the degree of divergence can be influenced by influencing the secondary flow. As soon as a bather dips his or her body into the area of the secondary flow, the diverging orientation changes increasingly into an orientation directed towards the body of the bather and vice versa.
  • hydromassage nozzles according to the invention can be arranged in those areas of the water basin that are assigned to the back of a bathing guest, that is to say when calculating the tub floor and the backrest, with the bathing guest's body coming from the hydromassage nozzle dispensable medium assumes a decreasing diverging orientation - that is, directed towards the body of the bathing guest - and a zone-related underwater massage takes place, while the dispensable media from other hydromassage jets, which are not provided in the vicinity, continue to maintain a divergent orientation and serve for general ventilation of the bathing water.
  • the orientation of the amount of fluid that can be dispensed from the hydromassage nozzle can be changed from diverging to increasingly axial.
  • the invention accordingly is an "intelligent" hydromassage nozzle from which an essentially axially oriented jet flow can be emitted when the body of a bather approaches the swirl chamber outlet opening and from which an essentially divergent amount of fluid can then be dispensed if only the water in the pool is to be flowed through and aerated.
  • the lateral boundary wall of the swirl chamber which has the swirl chamber outlet opening, has a conical, radially widening configuration downstream of the narrowest cross section of the outlet opening.
  • the invention is further improved if a gaseous or liquid medium subjected to positive pressure can be fed into the center of the negative pressure zone via the second fluid supply channel.
  • This configuration has the advantage that, due to the compensation of the negative pressure, the liquid medium that can be dispensed from the swirl chamber outlet opening assumes an essentially axially oriented orientation.
  • the second fluid supply channel is supplied by a compressed air generating blower, then an essentially axially directed jet flow and mixture formation can be achieved.
  • the use of the invention can be expanded if the second fluid supply channel can be supplied with a fluid which can be acted upon alternately with positive and negative pressure and the pressure difference between two maximum values (+ -) can be varied.
  • the second fluid supply duct can preferably be supplied by a compressed air generating blower that is continuously variable in its output.
  • the compressed air supply is designed to be interruptible by a control valve provided in the supply line and that compressed air (positive pressure, positive) and suction air (negative pressure, negative) can be supplied to the second supply channel in timed intervals.
  • the configuration has the advantage that the amount of fluid that can be dispensed from the vortex chamber outlet opening can be changed continuously between a diverging and an essentially axially oriented orientation and that the control of the ventilation of the second fluid supply channel can be influenced in such a way that the orientation of the fluid from the Hydromassage nozzle deliverable amount of fluid between divergent or essentially axially selectable.
  • the changeability of the orientation can also be achieved according to the invention by supplying at least a partial amount of liquid medium to the second fluid supply channel.
  • it is provided to connect a connection flow channel to the channel or area of the nozzle housing to which liquid medium can be applied such that a flow connection can be established between the first area and the second supply channel which can be supplied with gaseous medium and in the one which can be supplied with gaseous medium Fluid supply channel liquid medium can be introduced.
  • a control valve preferably a solenoid valve, is preferably switched on in the connecting flow channel, which control valve can be controlled into an open position and into a closed position, a partial amount of during the period of opening of the control valve liquid medium can be introduced into the second fluid supply channel to which gaseous medium can be applied.
  • jet pipe within the second fluid supply channel, coaxial with its inner walls, running in the flow direction, which jet pipe ends with an outlet opening within the second fluid supply channel, through which jet pipe liquid medium, in the flow direction of the gaseous medium, in the second fluid supply channel can be introduced.
  • the swirl chamber has steering means arranged between its lateral boundary walls, by means of which steering means the course of the fluid flow threads can be influenced.
  • the steering means are arranged on a circumference dividing the swirl chamber in such a way that the radial plane of the swirl chamber is divided into two partial areas.
  • a swirl chamber section radially outside of the steering means forms an annular channel and the other swirl chamber section centrally surrounds the peripheral wall of the second fluid supply channel and the swirl chamber outlet opening at a distance.

  • the swirl chamber is designed in such a way that, in addition to the first fluid supply channel for a liquid medium and the second fluid supply channel for a gaseous and / or liquid medium, a third fluid supply channel is provided for supplying a control medium .

With this configuration, it is conceivable to introduce the first supply channel radially or laterally into the swirl chamber.
  • This configuration has the advantage that when the swirl chamber is supplied with a liquid medium by the first fluid supply channel, an essentially axially oriented orientation of the fluid that can be dispensed from the outlet opening can be achieved.
