Definitions
- the invention relates to a combined hand washing and drying device that allows a user to carry out both the hand washing and the drying process of the hands in the same place.
- US 4,295,233 discloses an automatic hand washing and drying device, wherein the outlet for the wash water and the outlet for the drying air are arranged side by side on a side facing away from the user of the sink and submit the wash water or the drying air in the direction of the user. Since the wash water outlet and the drying air outlet are juxtaposed, it is necessary to increase the width of the wash basin to arrange both outlets within the wash basin. If several such combined hand washing and drying devices are to be arranged side by side, for example on public toilets, this results in a very high overall width of the arrangement of these devices. Also, after hand washing, the user must move his hands from the outlet of the wash water to the outlet of the drying air to dry his hands. Also, it is perceived by most users as unpleasant when the stream of drying air from the outlet of the drying air is directed at the user.
- an automatic hand washing and drying device which provides both the washing water and the drying air from above down onto the user's hands.
- the device comprises a cavity in which the user holds his hands, wherein on the ceiling of the cavity both the outlet for the washing water and the outlet for the drying air is arranged.
- the user is forced to wash and dry his hands without visual contact, since the outlets for water and drying air are by design between the user's head and hands. The access into the cavity and the subsequent hands on washing water and drying air without looking at your own hands is perceived by many users as unpleasant.
- the present invention therefore has as its object to provide a device with which a user can dry his hands comfortably after washing.
- the device according to the invention comprises at least one water outlet, which provides the water for washing the hands, at least one air outlet, which provides the drying air for drying the hands, and a sink which is trough-shaped for collecting the washing water and the remaining water dripping from the hands during the drying process is.
- both the washing water and the drying air are discharged substantially to the same location, so that the user can leave his hands in the same place during the entire washing and drying process. Since the blowing of the hands with drying air in the direction of the user is perceived by most as unpleasant, the drying air is thereby discharged across the user, so that the user comes with his hands not with the air flow directly in touch.
- transverse used here is to be understood as follows: If the user stands in front of the washbasin, then a connecting line is drawn between the side of the washbasin facing it, ie the side of the washbasin facing away from it and thus away from it
- Each plane orthogonal to this connecting line, which is in front of the user, ie on the side of the user on which the washbasin is located, is here to be understood as a plane transverse to the user
- the said transverse direction does not have to lie exactly on a transverse plane, but rather that an angle between the transverse direction and the transverse plane may also be formed be understood to the user who is not directed exactly parallel to a transverse plane, but a certain en angle with this includes. This angle should be less than 45 °, preferably less than 30 °.
- the place to which the washing water and the drying air are discharged should not be understood as an exact point, but rather as a volume area.
- the location is within the trough-shaped wash basin, that occupies the area, or forms a part thereof, which is enclosed by the wash basin body and the comprehensive the upper edge of the washbasin body level.
- the said location can also be arranged or additionally above the wash basin.
- the user can then leave his hands at this location during the entire washing and subsequent drying process, whereby his hands are first charged with washing water and then with drying air.
- the location is defined as an area above the washbasin trough.
- the point to which washing water is discharged may be different from the point at which the drying air is discharged, as long as both points are located above and inside the wash basin. This has the advantage that the user's hands, for example, during the drying process can not be accidentally re-pressurized with wash water.
- the drying air is discharged substantially horizontally. This means that the drying air has a predominantly horizontal directional component but not that it only has to have a horizontal directional component. So it can also have a vertical directional component, which is less than the horizontal directional component. However, it should be understood that the drying air is discharged in a direction that is substantially horizontal.
- the drying air coming from the air outlet is directed towards the wash basin.
- the drying air In the direction of the wash basin, the drying air is directed to an area above the wash basin, and / or into the wash basin, ie into the area enclosed between the wash basin body and the level surrounding the upper edge of the wash basin body.
- the air outlet is arranged laterally of the trough-shaped wash basin. So it can be arranged at any point circumferentially of the sink body and provide drying air.
- the combined hand washing and drying device comprises a further air outlet.
- the air outlets can be arranged opposite sides of the sink. It should be noted that the air outlets need not be located exactly opposite.
- the streams of drying air coming from the air outlets may be oppositely directed. This is to say that the air streams meet or in other words intersect. At least, however, the air currents are close to each other.
- the air outlet is arranged on one side of the washbasin, which is to be referred to as the side of a plane between the user and the side facing away from the washbasin.
- a position is preferred which, as seen by the user, is located between a two o'clock position and a four o'clock position or between an eight o'clock and a ten o'clock position, in other words, laterally by the user, but still within Near the washbasin. If now drying air is discharged in the direction of the sink, the air flow would also be described as transverse to the user.
- clock positions a fictional clock face is placed in the plane that surrounds the edge of the washbasin such that the 6 o'clock position is the user himself and the 12 o'clock position of the user facing side facing the washbasin.
- the position of the air outlet is defined as lying in the areas that represent 90 ° circle segments and that are arranged at the 3 o'clock position or 9 o'clock position.
- the area can extend on both sides in equal parts, ie at 45 ° from the 3 o'clock position or the 9 o'clock position away.
- the air outlet in the above-mentioned areas on the "dial” is, but this dial is pivoted about the connecting line between 6 o'clock position and 12 o'clock position.
- the air outlet does not necessarily have to be arranged on the horizontal "dial", so it may also have a height offset to the sink rim.
- the air outlet in particular for the retrofitting of existing washbasins with an air outlet according to the invention, it is conceivable for the air outlet to be arranged in the vicinity of the existing washbasin, for example in or on a vertical side wall near the washbasin or a frame supporting the washbasin , preferably vanity. Consequently, the air outlet is no longer a direct part of the sink and can be mounted independently of this.
- the air outlet is arranged at the edge of the washbasin, so not only in the immediate vicinity of the washbasin, but adjacent to the sink rim.
- the washbasin body can also form a unit with the air outlet (s), which can be mounted as a whole.
- the one or more air outlets are arranged in the washbasin trough, ie below the upper edge of the washbasin or below the level surrounding the upper edge of the washbasin.
- the one or more air outlets or at least one of which may be arranged in a receptacle of the washbasin.
- the air outlet itself can no longer be visibly arranged for the user, thereby increasing the visual appeal of the combined hand washing and drying apparatus. Also, this can be achieved a closed visual appearance.
- the one or more air outlets are arranged in one or more overflows of the washbasin. To prevent the sink from overflowing when the drain is closed or blocked, it is usually in one
- Washbasin can also be provided for receiving an air outlet.
- the overflow of the sink meets the one hand, the function of water drainage, as well as the inclusion of one or more air outlets, the
- the one or more air outlets can be integrated directly into the sink. So it is not necessary to provide separate components for the air outlets next to the sink, but the sink itself may have openings from which the drying air emerges. Thus, the sink takes over both the function of catching the wash water and the air flow of the drying air. Thus, it is conceivable that only an air connection must be provided at the sink itself, wherein the drying air is then passed through the washbasin body to the air outlets to then escape from them.
- the washbasin may have both one or more such outlets.
- the air outlet surrounds the water outlet in whole or in part.
- both the air outlet and the water outlet may be coaxial, with the air outlet completely surrounding the water outlet, or the water outlet being located within the air outlet but in an edge region of the air outlet.
- the water outlet releases the water parallel to the discharged air.
- the washing water is completely surrounded by the supplied drying air or is only partially surrounded by the drying air in the second embodiment, since the water outlet is arranged in an edge region of the air outlet and there is no drying air is provided. Further, it is conceivable that the supply of the washing water is surrounded by the drying air supply at least over a partial length in front of the water outlet, that is guided in this.
- drying air it is also possible for the drying air to be heated before it leaves the air outlet in order to accelerate the drying process of the hands by increasing the temperature of the drying air. So it is conceivable that the drying air as from the state of the
- blower already known from the prior art can be provided which effects the flow of drying air through the feed and finally through the air outlet (s).
- Both the heater and blower may be part of the combined hand-washing and drying apparatus, or they may be externally provided and connected to the combined hand-washing and drying apparatus.
- the drying air can be directed independently of the supply in any area to be blown without being affected by structural limitations of the combined hand washing and drying device. It is also conceivable that the supply of the drying air is arranged as adjustable by the user, for example by one or more joints near the drying air outlet. Thus, the user can choose at his discretion the place blown by the drying air and is not bound to a rigid drying air duct.
- activation means can also be provided by the device.
- light barriers are conceivable which activate a feeder as soon as the user holds his hands near the wash basin.
- separate means can be provided both for the supply of water and for the supply of air, which activate either the water supply or the air supply depending on the position of the user's hands. Once the user holds his hands close to the wash water supply, it can be activated, activating the air supply as he moves his hands away from the wash water supply to the drying air supply.
- a combined activation is conceivable, for example, by a timer first activates the wash water supply for a certain time, then the air supply to activate for a while.
- FIG. 1 shows a combined hand washing and drying device according to the invention in a user-viewed view
- FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of the invention in which washing water and drying air are provided by a fitting
- the sink 3 is embedded in a vanity. This is the outlet 1 for the
- Overflow 7 is arranged, which prevents the overflow of the sink 3, by discharging water above a certain level.
- the washbasin 3 comprises a peripheral edge 6, on each of which an air outlet is arranged on both sides of the washbasin 3. This drying air is supplied from below to the air outlets 2 and is deflected just before leaving the air outlets so that the air flows in
- the air streams 5 from the air outlets 2 also dry remaining water in the washbasin 3, so that the washbasin 3 always leaves the user a well-groomed impression. Also, by such an arrangement of the valves 1 and 2, the function of this recognized immediately by the user. This does not have to intervene as before in a non-visible cavity for washing and drying the hands.
- a further advantage is that the drying air 5 blown out of the air outlets 2 is not directed at the user, which is often perceived as unpleasant.
- the two-sided arrangement of the air outlets 2, the user's hands are blown from both sides, causing a shortening of the drying process compared with a one-sided blowing of the hands.
- FIG. 2 shows a section through a washbasin body 3, in which an air outlet 2 is arranged in the overflow 7, which blows out the drying air 5 in the direction of the washbasin trough 3.
- the fitting of the air outlet 2 is not visible by the user, in particular when the air outlet 2 is withdrawn behind the actual overflow 7.
- FIG. 3 shows a combined fitting comprising both the air outlet 2 and the washing water outlet 1.
- both the washing water 4 and the drying air 5 is supplied from below the valve and are guided in the outlets 2 for the drying air 5 and 1 for the washing water 4.
- the outlet 1 for the washing water 4 over the entire length of the fitting within the outlet 2 for the drying air 5, but is located at the inner edge of the air outlet 2.
- the outlet 1 for the washing water 4 can protrude from the air outlet 2 in order to clarify the function of the fitting to the user, but this does not have to be so that it can be flush with the air outlet 2 to lock.
- the fitting is placed on the edge 6 of the sink 3, so it can be mounted as a unit with the sink 3. Further, both the washing water 4 and the drying air 5 is guided inside the valve and deflected, so that the vertical upward feed ultimately ends in a downward direction in the sink 3 direction.
- FIG. 4 a shows an embodiment in which a washbasin 6 with the water outlet 1 was subsequently expanded by air outlets 2, which are not a direct component of the washbasin 6. These air outlets 2 are arranged on both sides of the washbasin 6 on side walls.
- FIG. 4b a washbasin 6 with the water outlet 1 can be seen, to the two sides of which air outlets 2 are arranged which have a certain distance from the washbasin 6 and are mounted on a washbasin carrying the washbasin 6.
- the embodiments of Figures 4a and 4b are particularly suitable for retrofitting existing sink, but they can also be part of a so-designed from the outset hand washing and drying unit.
