Definitions

  • the invention relates to sanitary fittings according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Faucet bodies for sanitary fittings are usually cast from brass.
  • the exterior of the body later forms the decorative surface and the interior of the body forms the water guide.
  • they Before they can be coated or chrome plated, they must be sanded and polished after casting to obtain a surface suitable for a plating process.
  • Sanitary fittings which comprise a bottom plate and a viewing housing, which are interconnected by means of latching connection and which has a water guide, which is inserted as a unit in the viewing housing.
  • a sanitary fitting known which made of sheet metal parts or two sheet metal half shells, which are interconnected at their edges.
  • the object of the invention is to improve a sanitary fitting with a decorative housing and a separate water supply.
  • a sanitary fitting with a housing body and a functional unit which comprises all water-carrying components and which is accommodated in the housing body of the sanitary fitting.
  • a decorative housing that has no contact with the drinking water.
  • the contact with the drinking water is made through the functional unit, the connections to the house connections, which may include water ducts, channels for cold, hot and / or mixed water, mixing valves and / or mousses, etc.
  • the housing body comprises at least two shell-shaped individual parts, which are made of a metallic alloy by die casting or of a suitable plastic.
  • a metallic alloy by die casting or of a suitable plastic.
  • zinc die-cast alloys and die-cast aluminum alloys and a variety of suitable plastics are conceivable.
  • die casting or plastic injection molding which also counts to the die casting process, to cast very clean shapes, edges and contours, so that the cost of reworking the cast or plastic parts is greatly reduced.
  • parts of other materials such as bushings, threaded bolts or the like pour in with.
  • the shell-shaped individual parts are adhesively bonded to one another to form a hollow body enclosing the functional unit by means of a joining process.
  • the shell-shaped individual parts are made of an aluminum casting alloy, preferably from the group of AlSi10Mg (Fe), AlSi12 (Fe), AlSi9Cu3 (Fe) or Al-Si12Cu1 (Fe).
  • aluminum die cast alloys have a very high contour accuracy after removal from the mold. Furthermore, these alloys have a very good machinability and a very high chemical resistance.
  • Zinc die casting alloys as well as plastics are also very suitable for the production of precise individual parts.
  • the wall thicknesses of such shell-shaped items are about 0.8mm to 2mm.
  • Wall thicknesses of 1 mm in zinc die-casting processes, 1.4 mm in die-cast aluminum processes and 2 mm in the plastics injection molding process can preferably be realized by means of the pressure casting process.
  • the material requirements in the manufacture of the housing, in contrast to conventional casting methods is reduced to a minimum.
  • the achievable tolerances are ⁇ 0.05 mm to ⁇ 0.15 mm, so that is also spoken of a final casting.
  • the housing is provided by two symmetrical shell-shaped individual parts.
  • a body of a plurality of individual parts is also conceivable.
  • the separating seams between the individual parts need not lie in one plane, but can be adapted to the geometry of the outer housing.
  • the shell-shaped individual parts are adhesively, adhesively and positively or materially connected together.
  • the shell-shaped individual parts have joint edges with profilings.
  • the joining edges of the shell-shaped items may have a fold, a groove or a profile corresponding to the groove, a projection or a nose.
  • Each individual part may have a projection on a first joining edge and a recess on a second joining edge, such that in each case one joining edge of an individual part engages with a projection in a recess of a joining edge of a second individual part.
  • the surfaces of the projections and recesses may have a wedge shape.
  • the joining edges of the shell-shaped individual parts are advantageous for the joining edges of the shell-shaped individual parts to adjoin one another in the outer region of the housing body in an abutting manner and to have a gap in the inner region of the housing body.
  • the length of the projections in the profiles of the joining edges on the inside is smaller than the length of the corresponding recesses provided.
  • positioning devices for fasteners or fasteners may be provided even on the cup-shaped items.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention also provides that the housing body is provided after joining the cup-shaped items with a coating.
  • a layer sequence of a primer lacquer layer, PVD layer and a lacquer topcoat is provided.
  • the advantage of a coating with the aforementioned layers is that it has a certain thickness by means of which it is possible to cover possible still visible parting lines. This means that the case body after coating looks like a one-piece body. In the assembled state of the completed sanitary fitting, the viewer will no longer be able to recognize the multi-part nature of the housing body on the basis of the external shape.
  • the invention also provides a method for producing a sanitary fitting with the following steps. First, at least two shell-shaped individual parts are produced with profiled joint edges for a housing body by means of a die-casting process. Subsequently, a functional unit, which comprises all water-carrying parts of the sanitary fitting, inserted into one of the individual parts of the housing body. Then the housing body is made by connecting and gluing the cup-shaped items. Alternatively, prior to the manufacture of the housing body, coating of the individual parts may be effected by wet-chemical methods, physical methods or painting methods or a combination of layers according to these methods.
  • a preparation of the joining edges of the individual parts takes place by mechanical or chemical roughening or is activated by an atmospheric plasma at the atomic level. Furthermore, it is important for the desired coating and surface quality that after gluing the individual parts, a post-processing of the adhesive joint by means of grinding, brushing or polishing takes place.
  • a coating method comprising a layer sequence of at least one primer or leveling layer, a PVD layer and a topcoat layer, it is also possible to cover the joints between the individual parts such that the housing body appears in one piece.
