Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shower holder, with which a shower head can be attached with a certain distance from a fixed location.
  • shower brackets There are a variety of shower brackets, with the help of a shower head either removable or fixed with distance in front of a wall can be attached.
  • two shower heads are mounted between the two legs of a U-shaped bent arm, which can be pivoted about mutually parallel axes. The supply takes place through the interior of the trained as a hollow profile wall arm.
  • the two shower heads are identical. They are supplied with water by a common water supply at the same time.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a shower holder, with the other possibilities of showering and the design of the shower should be possible.
  • the invention proposes a shower holder with the features mentioned in claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
  • additional shower in addition to the usual shower or the usual shower head another shower is attached, which is hereinafter referred to as additional shower.
  • additional shower it may be advantageous to one in their shape, size and / or design of the main shower is different showerhead. For example, it may be a small showerhead, or one that emits a completely different beam shape.
  • the additional shower has its own water supply, so that it can be supplied independently of the shower head with water, optionally with water of a different temperature. It is provided with advantage that the additional shower of the main shower can be switched, so that they can therefore be operated both with or without the main shower.
  • the separate water supply of the at least one additional shower can for example be achieved by having its own water supply in the form of its own shower hose. But it is particularly useful if it is supplied with water through a channel disposed within the arm. This channel can be connected, for example, in the region of the attachment component via a hose with a line coming from the mixing fitting. But it is also possible that the channel is connected directly within the mounting member with a water pipe, so that no line can be seen from the outside.
  • One way in which a channel can be realized for water supply is that the arm is formed at least up to the additional shower as a hollow profile.
  • the location where the auxiliary shower is located can be selected according to the desired showering process.
  • the additional shower can for example be mounted directly next to or even in front of the main shower. However, it is particularly useful if it is arranged between the mounting member and the bracket for the shower head. It can be mounted to complement the jet or jet fan emanating from the main showerhead.
  • the emission direction of the additional shower is adjustable, which can be made possible for example by changing the position of the additional shower altogether or by changing only a part of the additional shower.
  • a rotation about an axis fixed relative to the arm offers.
  • the at least one additional shower is attached to the side of the Wandarms. With several additional showers it makes sense to attach these on both sides of the wall arm. Of course, it is also conceivable and is proposed by the invention to attach an additional shower to the underside of the wall arm.
  • the invention proposes to provide all these additional showers with a common water supply.
  • the at least one additional shower of the arm is not removable, but is firmly mounted on it, the fixed mounting does not mean that the shower is not adjustable.
  • Fixed installation should also be understood that the additional shower can still be removed with a tool.
  • an additional shower with the aid of a quick coupling, such as a plug-in coupling, on the wall bracket. This plug-in coupling is then designed so that even after removal of the additional shower there no water leaks.
  • the arm can be pivoted about its horizontal axis relative to its attachment component, so that the receptacle for the hand shower or the shower head can be pivoted from top to bottom in order to adapt the shower to different body sizes.
  • This axis is then oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction of the arm. It is also possible that the arm can be rotated about a horizontal axis extending in its longitudinal direction in order to change the emission direction of the showerhead from left to right.
  • the water guide passes through the joint. This can be effected, for example, by a sealed opening or by a hose guided through the joint.
  • the shape of the Wandarms can be arbitrary, provided that only an additional shower can attach, for which a certain size of the Wandarms is required.
  • the arm is forked, wherein the fork can start at a certain distance from the Anbtingungsbauteil.
  • the additional showers are arranged on the outer sides of the two fork arms. This allows a wider jet pattern or a wider beam fan can be achieved.
  • the shower head is a common hand shower, which is held for example by means of her grip in the recording.
  • the shower head is supplied as usual via a shower hose with water, wherein the connection of the shower hose, for example, can also be done on the attachment component of Wandärms.
  • FIG. 1 shows greatly simplified from the side of a shower holder according to the invention.
  • This shower holder is mounted on a wall 1 in the example shown.
  • a mounting member 2 in the example shown in the form of a console 3.
  • the console 3 is screwed to the wall 1.
  • a connection is made with a coming from a mixing valve water pipe, which preferably leads mixed water.
  • a wall arm 5 is pivotally mounted.
  • the pivot axis is horizontal and perpendicular to the paper plane, ie parallel to the surface of the wall 1.
  • a clamping screw which can be operated by means of a handle 6.
  • the wall arm extends away from the attachment component 2 away from the wall and ends in a free end 7.
  • a receptacle for a shower head 8 which is not explained in greater detail in FIG. 1 is attached to the wall arm 5.
  • the shower head 8 is disk-shaped in the illustrated embodiment, but it could have any other shape. It is provided with a handle 9, which is slightly angled relative to the plane of the shower head 8. In the handle 9 leads a shower hose 10, which leads from there to form a down hanging loop to the mounting member 3.
  • FIG. 2 now shows a view of the arrangement of FIG. 1 in a simplified representation.
  • the wall arm 5 bifurcates shortly behind its mounting point on the console 3. It thereby forms two fork arms 14, the diverging are formed and in the region of the free end 7 of the Wandarms again parallel to each other.
  • There is a holder 13 for the shower head 8 is provided between the two ends 12 of the two fork arms 14.
  • the plan shows that the additional showers 11 are mounted on both sides of the two fork arms 14, on the outer sides of the fork arms. As a result, it is possible with the aid of the downwardly radiating additional showers 11 to produce a larger spray pattern in the area.
  • FIG. 3 shows a way in which a shower holder can also be constructed according to the invention. While the embodiment of the FIG. 1 and 2 a bifurcated and curved in side view wall arm 5, the embodiment of the FIG. 3 a non-bifurcated wall arm 15 to the content. At the in FIG. 3 right side, that is, the free end of the wall arm 15, a schematically illustrated cone holder 16 is formed for a hand shower. The hand shower can be plugged in there. On the wall arm 15 two additional showers 11 are arranged in the example shown, each on a different side of the wall arm 15th
