  • the slider engage two pushers, which are displaceable against the force of a spring by different lengths ways, the slider is displaceable by a shorter path of triggering a partial flush, while the displaceable by a longer way pusher serves to trigger a full flush. For the triggering of the full flush is thus the displacement of the associated pusher along a relatively long in this drain valve Displacement and thus a relatively high effort required.

Because after the user has raised the overflow pipe from the closed position by a relatively small stroke, the further stroke movement of the overflow pipe in the partial flush or full flush associated position is independent by the buoyancy of the upper float. The buoyancy of the upper float is used both in the triggering of a partial flush and in the triggering of a full flush to minimize the force applied by the user.
  • the drain valve according to the invention makes it possible to considerably reduce the necessary displacement of a push button for triggering a full flush. This results in new interesting design options for actuator plates in the two-volume flushing technology.
