Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hand shower with a shower hose and shower head connecting handle that merges into the shower head and a water-carrying Inner part is designed with a connecting thread.
  • the handle which virtually connects to the shower head, at the same time to use as a water inlet pipe for hot and cold water (DE-PS-38 34 560). With such a design, it is necessary to the handle end to attach a connecting thread, which is usually relatively expensive is. It is therefore already known that the handle is water-bearing Assign inner part, which can be equipped with the appropriate thread and that leads into the shower head in order to supply it with the necessary amount of water supply. It is difficult to close this inner part in the tubular handle fix that the two parts do not move against each other during operation can. If the water-bearing inner part is too close to the inner wall of the Handle, there may be an adverse warming or even heating the handle itself.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to create a hand shower, a largely heat-neutral and quick and safe to install handle having.
  • the inner part on both sides at least one radial guide pressing against the inner wall of the handle and has at least one axial depression at one of the ends.
  • a hand shower can be created which is advantageously easy and quick to assemble and which also with respect the handle practically heat neutral.
  • the inner part is on the thread side so fixed on and in the end area of the handle that slipping here is no longer possible, even if this inner part is the connection thread has, therefore is therefore burdened by the weight of the shower hose. This especially not because the inner part is effectively fixed at the opposite end is.
  • the present invention achieves this in that at least one End the axial fixation takes effect when inserting the inner part. You prevent the accidental pulling out of the inner part at the same time.
  • This training is therefore easy to install and also advantageous effective because there is a radial guide at both ends and at one of the ends, as already explained, an axial fixation is provided, so that both Each end at a predetermined certain distance from the inner wall of the handle remain.
  • the necessary seal between the inner part and the inner wall of the handle is guaranteed because the radial guide is equipped with a sealing ring or because such a sealing ring is arranged upstream of the guide.
  • the sealing is already done with the introduction of the inner part.
  • the axial fixation as Locking part is formed, which at the end behind a limiting the interior of the handle Locking ring is clamped. Once this locking part is due to the bottleneck, i. H. about pushed the locking ring, so the locking projections behind the locking ring and prevent the inner part from being pulled out again.
  • the sealing ring is offset towards the shower head at a distance from the end of the handle is arranged so that the necessary seal is always secured in this area is when, for some reason, there is moisture in this area should penetrate.
  • a certain amount of guidance when inserting the inner part into the handle takes over the sealing ring at the same time because, as already mentioned, it runs over the outer wall above approach is assigned because it is also corresponding in the inner tube is inserted.
  • the connecting thread in one Support ring passes, which is at a distance from the sealing ring, but whose protrusion to the inner part having, is arranged. This is a clean conclusion in the transition area created because this support ring effective the remaining cavity towards the sealing ring co-seals and at the same time supports the outer end of the handle.
  • the locking part can perceive its locking effect particularly well if it as is resilient and kinked flanged edge. So it is possible that inner part push evenly into the hollow handle until the locking part behind the Spring ring lockout and then ensures that the inner part is stuck.
  • Such training is expedient if the inner part is made of plastic, but even with a metal version, the formation of such a border is which may be welded on, can be used.
  • Pushing through the bottleneck, which is formed by the locking ring, is easy possible because, according to a development of the invention, the inner part on the opposite End is formed into a tapered tube end that the Has flanged edge. Together with the flanged edge, which when pushing through the locking ring is compressed, this part of the inner part has a corresponding smaller diameter than the remaining opening. After pushing through then jump the tips of the flanged edge back and snap behind the locking ring.
  • An inner part is particularly advantageously fixed in the handle when it is the locking ring between the flanged edge and pipe end is formed and arranged is. With correspondingly precise dimensions, the inner part sits on two sides fixed to the locking ring and can practically without destruction from this position be pushed out more. Of course it is possible with the corresponding effort squeeze the edge of the purse from the inside of the shower head to hold it then push through the Rastringengpass. But this is for normal operation not common.
  • the funnel edge is designed obliquely outward. A destruction of this resiliently trained Börtelrand is prevented because he with the corresponding stabilizing bottom or funnel bottom through the bottleneck must be pushed through. The parts of the edge of the stock exchange that form the funnel edge then jump forward and effectively fix the inner part.
  • the invention provides that the flanged edge has longitudinal slots that open outwards.
  • the inner part is virtually cut open and the individual areas are then bent over to form the To yield flanged edge, although other designs are of course also conceivable, for example also the one in which the parts of the flanged edge or the entire one-piece Flange is welded to the corresponding end of the inner part. This welding represents an operation, but has the advantage that the flanged edge is different Can have shapes, depending on which handles or inner parts are used.
  • the inner part is made of plastic can also consist of metal, because the inner part is stored in the actual handle is.
  • the insulating effect of the material can be specifically improved by the fact that the inner part is made of the same plastic as the handle and one Air gap between its outer wall and the inner wall of the handle over the entire length is formed. This creates a long air chamber that also ensures that the inner part is insulated from the handle or vice versa. Because the inner part and the handle are made of the same plastic exist, there are processing advantages, but especially for both parts same service life to be expected, so that not one of the components is replaced got to. Rather, there are clear advantages.
  • the invention is particularly characterized in that a hand shower is created that is practically uninfluenced by the water flowing through it Has handle that is elegantly shaped into the shower head.
  • this heat-neutral handle is an inner part running at a distance from it provided, which may have the thread at the end and especially within the Handle is defined by a flanged edge or corresponding locking parts, that slipping or even slipping out of the handle is no longer possible is.
  • FIG. 1 A hand shower 1 of any design can be seen in FIG. 1, it being recognizable is that the shower head 2 and the handle 3 practically merge, thus represent a component. Incidentally, the installation of the inner parts of the shower head 2 takes place with the shower head open, d. H. thus by loosening the edge labeled 6.
  • the shower head 2 is shown in a side view, while the handle 3 cut is given again.
  • Fig. 2 shows the same representation in principle, whereby this area of the handle 3 is shown enlarged.
  • the handle 3 has an inner part 4, the end via a connection thread 5 for the shower hose, not shown here having.
  • This inner part 4 is, as will be explained in more detail later, fixed in the handle 3 so that it is captive and non-slip, therefore directly can be used as a connection for the shower hose.
  • the connection thread 5 is thus advantageously applied directly to the inner part 4 or cut into it.
  • connection thread side is on the circumference or the outer wall 31 of the inner part 4 a projection 10 is arranged with a sealing ring 9, the sealing ring 9 on the Inner wall 8 of the handle 3 rests. Slightly offset and exactly at the end of the handle 16, a support ring 17 is additionally provided, specifically at a predetermined distance 18 to the sealing ring 9.
  • the end area is thus double-supported the handle 3, wherein a connection is not necessary, because as later still explains the inner part 4 in the front area, d. H. in the area of the shower head 2 is set effectively.
  • the inner part 4 runs through the interior of the handle 11 without any Support beyond the sealing ring 9 to the opposite end 12, where that Inner part 4 is hooked over the locking part 14 behind the locking ring 13 so that the inner part 4 can no longer be pulled out of the handle 3.
  • the locking part 14 is as Flanged edge 20 formed, which either forms the tube end 21 or with the Tube end 21 is connected. 3 illustrates that there is the possibility Introduce longitudinal slots 27, 28 into the wall of the tube end 21 and then these to bend up in this way the funnel-shaped formation according to FIG. 1 and to achieve Fig. 2.
  • the funnel thus formed sits with its funnel edge 22 exactly behind the Locking ring 13, which represents the end of the handle interior 11 and the part of Handle is d. H. made with this, especially sprayed.
  • the flange 20 is made accordingly, the funnel edge bends 22 automatically towards the inner wall 8 of the handle 3, so that here the funnel edge 22 will definitely attack if it is affected by the bottleneck caused by the Locking ring 13 is formed, has been pushed through.
  • the funnel edge 22 jumps quasi into this locking position shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the water connection pipe 26 is inserted and is also set so that the water can pass through this area without the There is a risk of leaks.
  • FIG. 2 shows that between the outer wall 31 of the inner part 4 and the inner wall 8 of the handle 3 a constant wide air gap 30 in shape remains of an annulus in which air is present.
  • This air gap or annular gap ensures that even if the wall of the inner part 4 is heated up, this Do not transfer the temperature or only to a small extent to the wall of the handle 3 becomes. The use is therefore much more pleasant because the handle 3 quasi does not exceed the warmth of the hand, so that a startle or Scaring cannot occur at all.
  • the inner part 4 When installing the handle 3 or hand shower 1, the inner part 4 inserted into the handle 3 from the handle end 16.
  • the funnel edge 22 of the Flanged edge 20 thereby grinds along the center wall 8 of the handle 3 and centers it the inner part 4 is advantageous until it comes into the region of the locking ring 13.
  • the funnel edge 22 is deformed by the corresponding bottleneck, so that it approximates the pipe end 21.
  • the funnel edge 22 flips up again until it abuts the inner wall 8, at the same time then also against the locking ring 13 bumps so that the inner part 4 is no longer displaced in the direction of the handle end 16 can be.
  • This seat is optimized in that the tube end 21 has the shape of a Support ring 32, which for a precise fixing of the inner part 4 in the handle 3 cares. The remaining handle interior 11 or the air gap 30 is maintained and thus maintains a defined width and thus ensures the desired insulation effect.
  • the seat of the by the support ring 32 and the funnel edge 22 Support ring 17 predetermined at the handle end 16 and thus also the seat of the sealing ring 9 in approach 10.
