Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closure plug for a drainage opening of a drainage channel of a basin or a tub according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Sealing plug for the drainage opening of the basin or the tub of interest here are known. They have a fitting on the edge of the drain opening of the basin or the tub closure part with a closure edge in order to seal with the drain opening in a closed position can. In an open position, the stopper protrudes slightly out of the discharge opening so that the closing edge is not seated on the discharge opening to allow water to flow therebetween. In this case, preferably in the closed as well as in the open position, the closure plug projects through the drainage opening into the drainage channel in order to obtain a guide through the tubular design of the drainage channel. of the inside. Such plugs are found for example in water or sink, sinks, bathtubs, shower trays or other basins or tubs, referred to briefly as the basin or tub.
  • EP 1 580 337 A1 discloses a sealing plug with a container for a gradually consumable in water substance or a means according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a lower part of the container below the bottom in the longitudinal direction of the sealing plug on a screw, with which the length of the sealing plug adjusted can be adapted so as to be adaptable to different outlets or drainage channels with different height arranged Verscherie- and opening arms.
  • FR 2 837 224 discloses another sealing plug with a sealing surface having and at the edge of the drain opening immediately adjacent closure part, on the downstream side a water-flowed, partially open carrier is provided, the carrier can absorb the gradually consumed in the water substance.
  • a grid structure with a multiplicity of passage openings is provided for exchanging the water and the substance that gradually consumes water.
  • US 3,112,499 discloses a further sealing plug with the sealing surface having and at the edge of the drain opening directly applicable closure part, at the outlet side of a water-flowed, partially open carrier is provided, wherein the carrier absorbs the gradually consumed in the water substance and in the Has area of the drain opening between a plurality of wall ribs a plurality of passage openings.
  • DE 102 20 996 discloses another closure plug having a plug-like and a sieve-like end, wherein the plug-like end has a seal member fixedly connected to the screen-like end for circumferentially securing in the drainage tube and a lid member or closure member detachably connected to the seal member.
  • a main body of the screen-like end an inlet opening for the water is provided, wherein the water runs through the sieve-like end.

  • the invention is therefore based on the object to eliminate disadvantages of the prior art, to provide a sealing plug that is as easy to adapt to different heights of a closing and ⁇ réellesarms in the drainage channel, which can accommodate as much of a gradually consumed in the water substance , and as easy as possible to refill.
  • the bottom which along the longitudinal axis is the lowermost part of the sealing plug, according to the invention is designed as a stop for a closing and opening arm of the drainage channel, wherein the container along its longitudinal axis in its length is adjustable, thereby a base height of the closure and opening arm to be adaptable in the drainage channel.
  • the length of the closure stopper can be adapted to the base height of the closing and opening arm of the drainage channel, while at the same time having the maximum fill quantity, since the entire space for the substance or agent can be used along the longitudinal axis and no space is given away. This automatically results in a maximum filling capacity and a good adaptability to the base height of the closing and opening arm in the drainage channel.
  • a first preferred embodiment comprises the container with an upper and a separate lower container part, which can be shifted into one another in order to be able to adapt a length of the closure plug to the base height.
  • an optimal filling capacity for the corresponding outflow channel automatically sets in as well.
  • Locking lugs simply engage in corresponding locking holes of the respective other container part, so that an adjustment of the length can be made easily without further aids by untrained persons.
  • the container can preferably be filled from above by a simple removal of the upper end part with the substance or the agent and then simply closed again.
  • the container can also be opened at the lower end by a removable or unscrewable bottom part with the bottom, filled with the substance or the agent and then simply closed again.
  • the container has an accordion-like part, by the adjustment of which the length of the closure plug can be adapted to the base height.
  • the accordion-like part is preferably designed so that when adjusting a holding force must be overcome and the accordion-like part then remains with a holding force in its respective position.
  • an optimal filling capacity for the corresponding outflow channel automatically sets itself here as well. A pulling apart and pushing together the accordion-like part are easily vorappelbar without further aids and by untrained persons.
  • the container can preferably be filled from above by a simple removal of the upper end part with the substance or the agent and then simply closed again.
  • the container can also be opened at the lower end by a removable or unscrewable bottom part with the bottom, filled with the substance or the agent and then simply closed again.
  • the space in the upper closure part which is formed convex upwards, can also be filled, so that a maximum filling volume or volume is created Filling capacity results.
