Definitions
- the present invention relates to a flush device with adjustable water reserve and in particular for a toilet bowl.
- the present invention also relates to a simplified method of setting a flushing device and this, in order to accurately empty a portion of the water present in a flush tank.
- the document DE 100 49 645 discloses a toilet flushing device comprising a valve body of a flow valve that can be lifted via a lower float or a top float during a complete flush or partial flushing respectively, the lower float being fixedly retained by a magnetic retaining force during the partial flush.
- This device also comprises a valve body holding device, integral therewith and arranged to rest or be above the upper float.
- the document EP 0 723 050 discloses a dual-flush flush device comprising an overflow tube, a lower float and a small flush upper flush, the upper float can abut against a cross.
- the document EP 1 674 623 discloses a flush double flush device comprising an overflow tube along which are arranged a lower float of large flush and an upper float of small flush, the setting of the small flush float being effected with the aid of grooves and guides that also serve to adjust the length of the overflow tube ( ⁇ 0036).
- the present invention aims to propose a new flushing device that avoids all or part of the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the subject of the invention is a flushing device comprising an envelope, an overflow tube whose length is adjustable, an evacuation valve able to close off a water discharge orifice in position. closed and to release said orifice in the open position, a small flush float whose position is adjustable relative to said envelope, said small flush float being intended to maintain in the open position said discharge valve up to a desired volume of water is discharged, the overflow tube including an abutment surface that defines the setting position of the small flush float, so that the adjustment of the length of the overflow tube and the adjustment the position of the small flush float are simultaneously, the abutment surface of said overflow tube corresponding to at least one flange arranged at its upper end, characterized in that the overflow tube co comprises a ring on which is disposed said collar, said ring being movable between two positions.
- the flushing device has the advantage of facilitating the adjustment of the overflow tube and the small flush float. Indeed, the adjustment of the overflow tube defines at the same time the adjustment of the float.
- the small flush float is positioned vertically and has at its upper end a stop adapted to cooperate with the abutment surface of said overflow tube.
- said envelope has support means for said overflow tube.
- said casing has a rib capable of cooperating with two tabs arranged on said float, so that said float slides relative to the casing.
- said overflow tube comprises an upper part and a lower part, the position of the upper part being adjustable relative to said lower part, so as to adjust the length of the overflow tube during the installation of said device. flush.
- the upper end of the upper part of the overflow tube comprises the collar and the lower end of the lower part is connected to the discharge valve.
- the lower part of the overflow tube is guided in the envelope.
- the length of the overflow tube is adjusted by screwing the upper part into the lower part of said overflow tube.
- a flush device 1 for insertion into a tank or a tank of sanitary water (not shown), such as a toilet bowl, is shown.
- a tank or a tank of sanitary water (not shown), such as a toilet bowl, is shown.
- the bottom of the tank or reservoir is drilled, in its center, a brutal discharge orifice 7 of water.
- a base 20 raises, above the discharge port 7, a casing 14, which include among others a tube 2 overflow to evacuate the overflow of water present in the tank, a large hunting float 24 and a small hunting float 9.
- This small hunting float 9 allows to evacuate a small portion of water for small hunts, while the action of the float large hunting 24 can empty a large portion of water for large hunts.
- These floats 24 and 9 evacuate a certain amount of water thanks in particular to their buoyancy and their positioning within said flush device 1.
- a third external float, called float valve, (not shown) allows a known way of refill the water tank after using a small hunt or large hunt.
- the envelope 14 of the flushing device 1 has a cylindrical shape of substantially square section.
- the upper end 15 of the envelope 14 is open so that the overflow tube 2 can project relative thereto, while its end lower 16 comprises a cylindrical sleeve 18 and thus having an internal cavity.
- This first sleeve 18 is arranged vertically.
- the height of the sleeve 18 is of sufficient length so that a discharge valve 26 formed mainly by a gasket 6, as will be seen below, can be retracted during the emptying in order to shelter from the flow of 'water.
- a damper 5 is substantially cylindrical in shape and also has an internal cavity. In addition, it is able to fit into the internal cavity of the sleeve 18. It has the particular function of creating a laminar flow of water during a hunt.
- Part of the upper end of the sleeve 18 is connected to a partition 17 in the form of a half-cylinder (not visible in the figures).
- This wall 17 serves to limit with the diametrically opposite wall of the casing 14, the chamber of the float large hunting 24.
- a radial wall 19 connects the sleeve 18 and the partition 17 and serves as "cover" to the sleeve 18.
- This cover just as the damper 5 and the seal 6 have an orifice in their center, so as to receive the lower end of the overflow tube 2. Moreover, it is this lower end of the overflow tube 2 which form with the seal 6, the discharge valve 26.
- the casing 14 is further positioned vertically within the water reservoir so as to be positioned in front of the discharge orifice 7.
- the casing 14 is provided with the base 20.
- the base 20 has a first portion 20a which is fixed for example by clipping on the sleeve 18. From this first portion 20a, the base 20 has a second vertical portion 20b which connects the first to a third portion 20c.
- the second part 20b in the form of three distributed feet, raises the envelope 14 and makes it possible to form a reception space between the bottom of the latter and the discharge orifice 7, in order to receive there, when a flush or not, the lower portion of the sleeve 18, the damper 5 and the seal 6.
- the third portion 20c rests on the bottom of the tank and has a shape so as to cross and embrace the contour of the discharge orifice 7, so that the envelope 14 is held in the water tank.
- This part 20c has a seat 20d at the discharge port 7 to receive the seal 6 of the discharge valve 26, the seal 6 perfectly matching the contours of the seat 20d.
- the casing 14 also has along its wall a vertical rib 13 capable of cooperating with the small hunting float 9, so that it is also free in translation relative to the casing 14.
- the flush device 1 also includes the overflow tube 2 as mentioned above.
- the overflow tube 2 comprises two parts: a lower part 4 and an upper part 3 movable relative to the lower part 4.
- the upper part 3 is indeed capable of sliding or screwing, as shown in the figures in the lower part 4, so that the overflow tube 2 is of adjustable length.
- the overflow pipe 2 is also held in place by means of the radial wall 19, the damper 5 and the gasket 6.
- the lower end of the lower part 4 carries the seal 6, so as to form the discharge valve 26, while the upper end of the upper part 3, that is to say the one not connected to the part bottom 4, includes an enlarged portion 8.
- This enlarged portion 8 defines a first flange 8a which can form a first abutment surface for the overflow tube 2.
- the enlarged portion 8 is surrounded by a ring 25.
- This ring 25 comprises, disposed at its lower end, also a flange, said second flange 25a, so as to also form a stop surface for the overflow tube 2.
- This ring 25 is further adapted to extend along the enlarged portion 8 of the overflow tube 2 to be positioned in the so-called short position, in which the flange 8a and the flange 25a are adjacent so as to form both the stop surface of the overflow tube 2 ( figure 8 ).
- the ring 25 can in a so-called long position, extend from the lower end of the enlarged portion 8, that is to say from the first collar 8a ( figure 7 ).
- This position can be obtained by sliding the ring 25 downwards and being guided by one or more rib / groove systems 27 ( Figures 7 and 8 ).
- the flange 25a serves as a stop surface for the overflow tube 2 in this long position. Indeed in this position, the flange 25a is lower than the flange 8a.
- the enlarged portion 8 does not comprise a ring 25.
- the collar 8a serves as an abutment surface for the overflow tube 2.
- the positioning of the abutment surface of the overflow tube 2 serves as means for adjusting both the overflow tube 2 and the small flush float 9. In particular, its adjustment allows the evacuation of more or less water during the small hunt.
- the discharge valve 26 is said to be closed when the seal 6 closes the orifice 7 and is said to be open when the orifice 7 is released during the lifting of the overflow tube which takes the seal 6 in its stroke.
- the seal 6 is flexible and removable.
- the seal 6 is also drilled in the middle, so as to allow the overflow tube 2 and in particular at the lower end of the lower portion 4 to protrude slightly relative to the seal 6. As already mentioned, this end of overflow tube 2 forms with gasket 6, exhaust valve 26.
- valve 26 The opening or closing of said valve 26 is inter alia in a two-volume system, as shown in FIGS. Figures 1 to 6 either to the action of a small hunting float 9 positioned inside the casing 14, or to the action of a large flush float 24, for example rocking.
- FIGS. Figures 1 to 6 The operation of both systems are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be explained in detail in the present description.
- the small hunting float 9 is of elongated shape and is positioned vertically within the envelope 14, between one of the walls of the overflow tube 2, the inner wall of the casing 14, and the collar 8 , so as to guide said small hunting float 9.
- This small flotation float 9 also comprises two tabs 10 forming an internal notch capable of tying the rib 13 of the envelope 14. In this way the small flotation float 9 is guided and can slide along the rib 13.
- the small flotation float 9 has at its upper end a stop 11. This stop 11 is able to abut on the flanges 8a or 25a, so that the small flush float 9 cooperating with the tube too much 2 is able to maintain the discharge valve 26 temporarily open and release, therefore, the discharge port 7.
- the small hunting float 9 has a buoyancy that depends on the portion of water that the user wants to evacuate with each small hunt. For example, it can be sized to release 3L of water.
- This small hunting float 9 is indeed able to exert an Archimedean force on the flanges 8a or 25a of the enlarged portion 8 or the ring 25. This makes it possible to prevent for a short period of time, it is up to say the time to evacuate 3 L of water from the tank, closing the drain valve 26.
- the flushing device 1 is first installed in a tank containing no water.
- the casing 14 is arranged vertically, the small flush float 9, sized to evacuate 3 L of water, rests on the wall 19, the overflow tube 2, whose length n ' is not yet set, is inserted into the second sleeve 17 and the discharge valve 26 is in the closed position.
- the second step of the installation is to fill the water tank to the desired height.
- indexing marks are pre-written on the inner wall of the tank, so as to guide more easily the installer of the flush device 1.
- the installer fills the tank, so that it contains 6 to 7.5 L of water corresponding to the amount of water needed for a large hunt.
- the small flotation float 9 is carried by the water and back up to be in contact with the flange 8a of the enlarged portion 8 of the overflow tube 2 or the flange 25a of the ring 25 according to whether it is arranged in the short position or in the long position.
- the next step ( figure 3 ) is to adjust the length of the overflow tube 2. For this, is slid and then fixed, or simply screwed the upper part 3 of the overflow tube 2 in its lower part 4, so that the flanges 8a , 25a are in contact with the surface of the water present in the tank.
- the small hunting float 9, pushed by the overflow tube 2 is positioned, so as to evacuate a small flush volume. If the setting corresponds to a short position of the ring 25 or if the flush device 1 does not include a ring, the small flush float 9 is set to subsequently evacuate about 3 L of water.
- the small flush float 9 is set to subsequently evacuate a greater quantity of water, approximately 3.25 to 4 L. This is explained by the fact that the Small flotation float 9 is disposed lower when the ring 25 is in the long position than when the ring 25 is in the short position, because the flange 25a is located lower than the flange 8a. In this position, the float that always has a buoyancy so as to evacuate about 3L of water, will necessarily stay longer active because it will exert a force greater than previously.
- valve 26 when the installer or a user subsequently activates the small flush, the valve 26 will lift thereby releasing some of the water in the tank. During this manipulation, the valve 26 will lift, via a mechanism known to those skilled in the art, and remain in the open position thanks to the action of the small hunting float 9 on the collar or flanges 8a and / or 25a of the overflow tube 2.
- the small flush float 9 will indeed exert an Archimedean force on the overflow tube 2 so that the discharge valve 26 remains open so as to release the amount of water desired small hunt.
- the float valve will fill the tank, so that it has enough water for a small or large hunt ( figure 6 ).
- the present device has the advantage of facilitating the adjustment of the overflow tube 2 and small hunting flush 9 small flush as shown in the embodiment as described. The adjustment of these two elements is now done simultaneously and accurately.
