  • the engine for example actuated via a proximity sensor.
  • An example such an actuator is disclosed in US 5,603,127.
  • the motor that opens the drain valve is arranged here in a cistern. When activating the engine he lifts a flushing lever with the swivel lever, which with a Chain is connected to the closure body. On one Flushing can be carried out on the lever on the front of the cistern can also be triggered by hand.
  • the disadvantage is the comparative elaborate assembly because the motor or the swivel lever is precise must be aligned with the flushing lever.
  • the invention has for its object an actuator of the kind mentioned to create a simpler and allows faster Monday.
  • the task is with one Actuator according to claim 1 solved.
  • the motor control is programmed so that the angular stroke of the lever automatically adapts to an existing valve stroke.
  • Motor control designed so that the angular stroke of the Swivel lever automatically on the existing stroke of the outlet valve adapts.
  • the exact positioning of the Motor and the angular stroke of the motor lever are not critical. at The motor can be assembled without further adjustment work on one Bearing part connected and the power supply can be established.
  • an electronic one detects Control of the motor automatically the end positions of the swivel lever and saves it.
  • the angular stroke is now at the outlet valve customized.
  • the motor is on one Bearing bracket fastened behind an inspection opening of the cistern is arranged.
  • a Rocker arm mounted with the closure body of the drain valve is engaged.
  • the swivel lever of the motor lifts to trigger flush this rocker arm.
  • the actuating device 1 shown in FIG. 1 has one Bearing block 3 on the in a cistern only indicated here 2 is attached.
  • the cistern 2 is preferably a Concealed cistern and bracket 3 is behind this Not shown inspection opening arranged.
  • To attach the Bearing block 3 on the cistern 2 has this laterally downwards projecting side supports 12 and 13.
  • the bearing block 3 is preferably detachably attached to the cistern 2 and can be used during a revision be removed from the cistern.
  • a rocker arm 7 is arranged which is horizontal Axis 8 is pivotable.
  • a push rod not shown here, for manual actuation articulated, which is movable in the direction of arrow 10. at such a movement becomes an arm 26 of the rocker arm 7 in the direction the arrow 11 pivoted about the axis 8.
  • the arm 26 engages in an opening 27 of a bracket 6 and lifts one Pivotal movement of the bracket 6 with a closure body attached to it 5 on.
  • the closure body 5 is part of one here Outlet valve 4 not shown.
  • the outlet valve 4 can be designed as usual.
  • the outlet valve is preferably 4 a float valve. But there are also other outlet valves here conceivable.
  • the bracket 6 has below the opening 27 a plate 17 with a horizontal surface 18. At the Plate 17 are formed on the downwardly projecting holding means 19, which Connect the bracket 6 to the closure body 5.
  • a motor 15 in particular a servo motor attached, which has a one-armed pivot lever 16, the is firmly seated on a motor axis 22 and that according to FIG a hook-shaped front end 16a loosely engages under the arm 26.
  • the motor 15 is housed in a housing 21 which attached to the bearing block 3, for example, is locked.
  • a holder 14 which the housing 21st connects to the bearing block 3.
  • the motor 15 is preferably equipped with one not shown here Battery supplied.
  • the motor 15 is switched on, for example on a key 24 shown in Figure 10.
  • This key 24 has in particular a proximity sensor 24a with which the motor 15 is switched on without contact, for example by a hand can be.
  • the button 24 can also be a mechanical one Button. However, there are other suitable means here for contactless remote triggering possible.
  • the motor 15 has a control known per se 28. This is designed so that the pivot lever 16 exerts an angular stroke ⁇ when the motor 15 is switched on.
  • Position C is usually the rest or Initial position.
  • the position D corresponds to the position in which the closure body 5 completely raised and thus the outlet valve 4 is open.
  • Positions B and A are further possible pivot positions of the pivot lever 16.
  • the position This corresponds to an upper reference point and the position A a lower reference point.
  • the controller 28 is now designed that the angular stroke of the pivot lever 16 at least with a first actuation automatically on the existing valve lift of the closure body 5 adjusts.
  • Figure 2 is a such existing valve stroke indicated with H.
  • the valve stroke H is the maximum distance that the valve body can be moved from the Lock position can be raised. Further up and the closure body cannot be moved further down become. This stroke H can vary due to manufacturing tolerances his.
  • the end positions can vary his.
  • the upper reference point is reached when the closure body 5 is fully raised.
  • the lower reference point is reached when the pivot lever 16 is applied to the bracket 3.
  • the pivot lever 16 can then no further counterclockwise be pivoted. There is also a strong one in this position Current rise, on the basis of which the control 28 sets the lower reference point recognizes.
  • the motor 15 is preferably designed so that the angular stroke ⁇ is independent of the direction of rotation of the Swivel lever 16 is set.
  • the motor is counterclockwise poled, the control recognizes this as wrong direction of rotation and reverses the engine.
  • the two reference points are each stored by the controller 28.
  • the pivot lever 16 guides it set and saved maximum angular stroke. This is then, for example, the angular stroke ⁇ shown in FIG. 10, which is for example 45 °.
  • the originally possible angular stroke from, for example, 180 ° is thus restricted to 45 °.
  • Circuit 28 is preferably set to periodically, for example, the angular stroke after 1,000 rinses adjusted. This is an adjustment to any changes of the outlet valve 4 possible.
  • the number of strokes, after which the angular stroke ⁇ is readjusted, is preferably adjustable.
  • FIGS Actuating device 1 The mode of operation of FIGS Actuating device 1 explained in more detail.
  • the outlet valve 4 is a float valve, it remains the closure body 5 is suspended in the raised position, until essentially all of the rinsing water has run out.
  • the Figures 3 and 4 show the position of the pivot lever 16 Fully raised locking body 5. Before the locking body 5 closes the outlet valve 4, the pivots Swivel lever 16 back to the position shown in FIG. 1 or in position C. The closure body 5 is thus free and can after the rinsing again in the starting position shown in Figure 1 fall behind.
  • the cistern 2 is now with a Refilled inlet valve not shown here, after which the Cistern for another flush is already ready again.
  • the pivot lever 16 can also be counterclockwise exert an angular stroke. Here too the angular stroke automatically adapted to the existing valve stroke H.
  • the actuating device 1 is designed such that a Partial rinsing is possible. With such a partial rinse, a Corresponding signal transmitted to the controller 28 or the Key 24 is equipped with a corresponding touch pad. To Such a trigger is the flush, as shown in the figures 1 to 4 explained above.
  • the closure body 5 is thus raised the same as mentioned above.
  • the closure body 5 here also reaches the uppermost position shown in FIG. 3.
  • the pivot lever 16 is not only up to the rest position according to FIG. 5, but time-controlled pivoted further downward in a counterclockwise direction. at this movement reaches the front hook-shaped end 16a of the Swivel lever 16 the top 18 of the plate 17, as shown in Figure 7 is shown.
  • the pivot lever 16 will now continue counterclockwise moves and the front end 16a bears with one Force according to arrow 29 on the plate 17 or on the closure body 5.
  • the outlet valve 4 is thus closed prematurely.
  • the flush volume of a partial flush can be infinitely adjusted and is particularly easy due to the Determines the time after which the pivot lever 16 after the The partial flush is triggered counterclockwise downwards again pivots and thereby the closure body 5 in the closed position suppressed.
  • the controller 28 is preferably this set that optionally between a full flush and a Partial rinse can be selected. After a partial rinse, the Swing lever 16 automatically into the rest position according to FIG. 1 back.
  • the actuating device 1 can also be triggered mechanically.
