Definitions

  • the invention relates to an articulated connection for a Pull-button waste set for wash basins, bidets or similar sanitary facilities for manufacturing an adjustable connection between the drawbar for actuating the closure element in the waste set and the plunger rod according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • wash stands, bidets or other sanitary facilities the high standard and the increased ease of use are equipped with drain sets, whose closure member with a plunger rod Help a tie rod in most cases Integrated component of a single-hole mixer tap is moved to an open and closed position can be.
  • Pull rod and plunger rod are included angularly movable with each other through joint elements connected. These joint elements must be on the Drawbar and adjustable on the plunger rod be fixable to the full functionality of the Locking device to ensure and accurate Adjustment of the pull rod, joint element and plunger rod existing actuator in Depending on the on-site conditions after the Installation or after a repair on the sanitary To enable establishment.
  • GB 926,154 is a clip-like coupling element known for bars and tubes of laboratory equipment, that cross with their longitudinal axes, at Setup of a test facility in a laboratory against each other to brace and fix.
  • crossing laboratory elements will be at least one of the Elements enclosed in areas by the bracket, while the other piece of equipment with its outer surface abuts the enclosed element.
  • the elements to be connected are shown their crossing point with each other by a clamping screw braced, the part of the bracket-like Connection element is and in one of the two halves of the bracket connecting bridge element screwed is.
  • the proposed solution according to GB-A 926,154 is just a fixed, rigid connection in the laboratory used equipment such as rods or pipes their crossing points possible. A relative movement the clamped parts to each other, such as with a plunger and pull rod of a pull-button drain fitting is necessary for functional reasons, cannot be realized with this solution.
  • a U-shaped plastic block provided the two intersecting holes for receiving the rods having.
  • the articulation is pivoted by a trained part of the plastic block enables that via an elastic-bend-deformable Film hinge is articulated and the mounting hole for one of the rods to be connected.
  • the Secure the position and adjust this articulation is carried out with the help of clamping screws a U-shaped clamping device.
  • This articulation fulfills the functional requirements for a Connection between pull and plunger rod, however is the plastic block in terms of assembly and the own production relatively expensive.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object further improved, only one screw point Specify joint element of the type mentioned at the outset, that can be manufactured and assembled with little effort is.
  • the joint connection according to the invention allows under Application of the associated connecting element, the preferably made of plastic with a suitable Strength exists and inexpensive in the injection molding process can be made fast and secure connection of pull and plunger rods minimal installation effort, since only one screwing point is provided.
  • the recessed or beveled sections of the through opening for the plunger rod provide the necessary space which allows the plunger rod to pivot in an angular range of, for example, + 20 ° to secure the opening and closing function of the closure piece .
  • Both rods can be moved against each other within this angular range, even though they are clamped together.
  • the articulated connection does not loosen after repeated actuation. Rather, the large number of pivoting movements results in minimal wear on the pull and plunger rod in the area of the crossing point. The resulting minimal contact areas lead to a kind of positive locking that securely maintains the connection between the tension and plunger rods.
  • the clamping screw is preferably conical Provide tip that when bracing each other of tension, plunger and molded body penetrates the tie rod. A pull out or Twisting the tie rod in the molded body is also then safely prevented if the clamping forces due to the material should wear off.
  • Fig. 1 there is the pull-button waste set from the drain piece 12 with the rotating one Drainage recess 13, which with the overflow of Sanitary equipment is connected and the goblet 14, in which the closure piece 15 is arranged.
  • the Closure piece 15 is operatively connected to the plunger rod 4, which in turn via the connecting element 2 and the tension screw 7 used with the pull rod 1, which is mostly part of a single-hole mixer tap is movable within an angular range of ⁇ 20 ° is coupled.
  • tie rod 1 and plunger rod 4 serving as connecting element 2 advantageously a corresponding from a plastic Shaped body 3.
  • the molded body 3 are in a conventional manner two through openings approximately at right angles to each other 8, 9 provided which are arranged are that the outer surface of the tie rod 1 and the plunger 4 touch each other and the bars 1, 4 in some areas of the molded body 3 are enclosed.
  • the Single-hole mixer tap and pop-up waste set the plunger rod 4 and the pull rod 1 in the provided through openings 8 and 9 and both poles 1, 4 at their crossing point clamped together using the clamping screw 7, the conical tip of the clamping screw 7 in the outer surface of the pull rod penetrates and at mutual tensioning of tension and plunger rods 1, 4 simultaneously the plunger rod 4 with the molded body 3 of the connecting element clamped.
  • the mutual Bracing of molded body 3, plunger rod 4 and tie rod 1 ensures a precise fixation of the adjusted setting of the closure piece 15 in its open and closed position. At the same time ensures the penetrating into the tie rod 1 Tip of the tension screw 7 that the tie rod is not can be pulled out.
  • the front side in the through opening 8 for receiving the plunger rod 4 existing or beveled sections 11 secure the required Free space for the unimpeded swiveling of the Plunger rod 4 in the specified angular range.
  • the proposed solution leads to another Reduction of manufacturing and assembly costs for the angular coupling of plunger and Pull bar.
  • the connecting element 2 according to the invention can also be extremely practical during assembly handle because only one screw connection must be manufactured.
