Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connection arrangement for a sanitary fitting according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the sanitary fitting which may be formed by a faucet unit or in particular by a hot and cold mixing faucet, via a connection device which in or on a building wall is arranged, connected to at least one water pipe.
  • the connecting device has at least one, in a hot and cold water mixing valve two inner water channels and is connected to at least one water pipe, which opens into the building wall and at least with an end region in it.
  • a connecting piece between a sanitary appliance and a water pipe is known, which is arranged in a wall slot and thereby provided with a sound-insulating, cuboid mounting piece of synthetic foam. This is intended to transfer the noise transmitted through the water pipes to the masonry be reduced.
  • This arrangement which is also referred to as "fitting”, is also used exclusively for mounting a sanitary appliance on a building wall.
  • connection arrangement between a sanitary object and water pipes known.
  • This arrangement which is also referred to as a "fitting" and which is also fastened on a building wall via mounting flanges, can be used both for supplying cold and hot water and for discharging waste water for sinks, urinals or the like Due to the massiveness of the individual connection arrangements and their direct attachment to the wall, a high stability and load capacity is achieved.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a structurally simple and inexpensive to produce connection assembly of the type mentioned, which can be used in sanitary items such as sinks, bidets or the like to assemble sanitary fittings quickly and easily, and also a visually particularly appealing connection arrangement is to be created.
  • the sanitary fitting is connected to a sanitary article attached to the building wall to the connection device, wherein the sanitary article has a first opening which connects a surface of the sanitary article with a lying behind this surface cavity, wherein the cavity through a second opening to the rear of the sanitary article adjacent to the building wall, and that a first part of the connection Device is arranged in the building wall and a so connected via the at least one inner water channel second part of the connection device protrudes through the second opening into the cavity of the sanitary article, the sanitary fitting through the first opening of the sanitary article therethrough to the second part of the connection device connected.
  • Being “connected” means “connected by line” in the sense of this manual.
  • the main advantage lies in the fact that the connecting device with very little use of material and in a very short time, the installation of a sanitary
  • Faucet on a sanitary article, about a sink allows. Another significant advantage is that below the sanitary article no
  • Inlet fittings we can see corner valves, hoses or exposed piping more visible, resulting in a particularly appealing attachment of sanitary ware.
  • the terminal assembly according to the invention is inexpensive to manufacture with ease, easy to handle and it allows a particularly fast and cost-effective installation.
  • the mixing device of the sanitary fitting is above or in front of the sanitary article or in front of the wall, ie not concealed, but surface-mounted.
  • the sanitary fitting is connected to the second part of the connection device via an adapter, which passes through the first opening of the sanitary article and has at least one inner water channel.
  • the adapter can preferably be connected positively and / or non-positively, in particular by screwing, which applies advantageously both for the connection to the sanitary fitting and for the connection to the connection device.
  • the sanitary fitting can also be connected directly to the connection device without an adapter.
  • the second part of the connection device is horizontally forward from the building wall. In this way, the connecting device takes up little space and it can be a particularly simple installation of the basin by simply horizontally pushing on the second part of the connection device are executed.
  • connection device runs vertically in the building wall, so that the connection device has at least substantially an L-shape in the laterally considered cross-section.
  • the space requirement is then particularly low both in the building wall and in the area of the basin.
  • a particularly flexible connecting device can be achieved in that the second part of the connecting device at least two relatively displaceable and at least one in his
  • connection device can be easily adapted on site to different pool shapes or pool sizes or to different deep pools.
  • This adaptation can be carried out in a particularly comfortable manner when the two sections of the second part of the connecting device are displaceable relative to one another by means of a self-locking threaded device, in particular by means of an adjusting screw, so that the length of the second part of the connecting device can be adjusted by turning the threaded device or adjusting screw is variably adjustable.
  • the sanitary fitting is a hot and cold water mixing fitting, for example a two-handle fitting or in particular a single-lever mixing fitting with a cartridge
  • the connecting device It includes two internal water channels, via which two water pipes, one each for cold water and hot water, are connected to the sanitary fitting in the building wall.
  • two water pipes can be connected to a sanitary fitting.
  • the invention can also be used for the assembly of sanitary fittings, which are connected only to a single water pipe, where appropriate, two separate valves, each with its own connection device can be attached to a common pool.
  • the sanitary fitting without hoses and without pipes is connected directly to the connection device or directly to the adapter used in the connection device.
  • the sanitary fitting can be carried out in an advantageous manner in an especially simple manner without connecting lines to be provided for this purpose.
  • shut-off device and / or one non-return device is integrated into the connection device for each water channel in the connection device.
  • the sanitary article is a sink, a vanity, a bathtub, a shower tray, a bidet or similar water collecting device, wherein the sanitary article has a voltage applied to the building wall rear wall in which the second opening is formed through which pass through the second part of the connecting device can.
  • the second opening can be embodied as a breakthrough in the rear wall is relatively small and correspond in size approximately to the cross section of the second part of the connection device, or the second opening can be made relatively large and in extreme cases even almost the size of the entire rear wall of the basin fill so that the rear cavity in the basin is freely accessible from the rear. It is furthermore particularly advantageous if the water outlet channel of the sanitary article extends to the rear and preferably opens horizontally in its rear wall.
  • connection device runs at least almost completely horizontally to the rear, following the water outlet opening of the basin which is located in a lower region.
  • This not only leads to a visually appealing embodiment without freely visible siphon under the pool, but especially in combination with the horizontally protruding from the building wall forward second part of the connection device is so easy to carry out the installation of the pelvis by simply pushing backwards allows, whereby both the water supply to the connection device and the outlet-side connection can be produced quickly.
  • the water outlet channel of the sanitary article may include a drain connector with integrated odor trap.
  • This drain connection piece can be integrated both in the sanitary article and as a separate connection part, which is attached only when the sanitary article is installed on site. In both variants, unpleasant odors from the sewer can be safely prevented even without a siphon that is visible under the basin.
  • the present invention also relates to a connection device which can be used in a connection arrangement of the type described above.
  • connection device has a part with at least two sections which can be displaced relative to one another and are interconnected via at least one length-variable inner water channel in order to ensure variable adaptability to different basin shapes and basin sizes.
  • the two sections which can be displaced relative to one another can be displaced relative to one another by means of a threaded device, preferably via an adjusting screw, such that the length of this part of the connection device can be variably adjusted.
