Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary fitting according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a mixer in particular a single-lever mixer, be installed, with the operating lever, the temperature and / or the amount of mixed water is adjustable.
  • the mixer tap is connected on the input side with a connected to the water supply network cold water pipe and a hot water pipe.
  • the mixer tap is routed via a mixed water line to the water outlet of the sanitary fitting.
  • a generic sanitary fitting in addition to the mixing water boiling water provide, which is guided by a boiler via a separate hot water line to the water outlet of the sanitary fitting.
  • a manually operable, second actuator such as a rotatably mounted on the sanitary fitting control knob.
  • This is navbetätigbar by the user in a hot water position to release the flow path of the hot water to the water outlet of the sanitary fitting.
  • a check valve is installed in the sanitary fitting, which can be mechanically opened and / or closed with the second actuator.
  • To further increase the functionality can be tapped on the sanitary fitting water, which has been pretreated in a cooler, carbonator and / or filter unit.
  • the above-mentioned additional functions of the sanitary fitting are associated with an increased space requirement in the sanitary fitting.
  • the sanitary fitting is therefore correspondingly large to dimension, which precludes an optionally more compact design of the sanitary fitting.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a sanitary fitting in which the sanitary fitting is made compact despite increased functionality.
  • the invention is based on the fact that the provision of hot water and / or the provision of mixed water takes place mechanically by a mixer tap and / or a hot water shut-off valve, which are manually operated by the user and installed directly in the sanitary fitting.
  • the sanitary fitting must therefore provide a correspondingly large space for the mixer tap and the check valve.
  • the amount adjustment of hot water is no longer a manually operated shut-off valve, but rather by a valve element, in particular a solenoid valve, which is electrically actuated by the second actuator.
  • the second actuating element can still be arranged on the sanitary fitting, whereas the electrically controllable hot water valve element optionally spaced therefrom, that is, for example, can also be arranged outside the sanitary fitting.
  • the valve element be arranged in the flow direction upstream of the sanitary fitting in a hot water line.
  • the second actuating element may be assigned a sensor element, which may, for example, electrically detect the position of the actuating element.
  • the sensor element can be signal-connected via a signal line to the hot-water valve element.
  • the sensor element can generate an actuating signal with which the hot water valve element can be controlled.
  • the second actuating element between a rest position in which the hot water valve element is closed, and a hot water position can be adjusted. In the hot water position, the hot water valve element is open.
  • the second actuating element can be manually adjusted while establishing a restoring force from the rest position to the hot water position. Upon release, therefore, the second actuator is automatically returned to its rest position.
  • the second actuating element may be assigned a securing element, for example a slider which is adjustably arranged in the second actuating element.
  • the adjusting movement of the second actuating element can be released only after the actuation of the securing element.
  • the hot water valve element may be associated with a timer. With the help of the timer can after expiration of a Example factory or user-specifiable duration of the opened by the second actuator hot water valve element are automatically closed again. After this period, therefore, the hot water line is interrupted, even if the second actuator is still in its hot water position.
  • the sanitary fitting can be assigned a cooler, Karbonator- and / or filter unit.
  • This unit may be in fluid communication with the sanitary fitting via a separate supply line.
  • the second actuating element can preferably electronically control the unit via corresponding signal lines. In this way, the second actuator in dual function can perform both a hot water volume adjustment and the adjustment of the pretreated water.
  • the second actuator is not only adjustable between the rest position and the hot water position, but also in at least one additional parking position.
  • the second actuator can release the flow path from the above-mentioned treatment unit to the water outlet of the sanitary fitting in this setting position.
  • a first setting position of the second actuating element it is possible to provide specially cooled and filtered water, while in its other setting positions the cooled water can additionally be tapped off, each with a different carbon dioxide content.
  • the adjusting movement of the second actuating element from the rest position into the hot water position and its adjusting movement from the rest position into the at least one further setting position are designed to be in opposite directions to one another.
  • the second actuating element may be a rotatably mounted on the plumbing control knob, which is rotatable in mutually opposite directions of rotation in each case in the hot water position or in the other position.
  • the above-mentioned safety measures apply preferably only for an actuating movement of the second actuating element in the hot water position, but not for an opposite adjusting movement in the other actuating position.
  • the hot water valve element is not mechanically adjustable, but electrically controlled.
  • the temperature and / or quantity adjustment of the mixed water can be done mechanically via a mixer tap, in particular a single lever mixer tap, which is inserted into the sanitary fitting.
  • the lever of the mixer tap serves as the above-mentioned first actuating element and the aforementioned control knob as the second actuating element.
  • the mixer tap may preferably be connected on the input side to a cold water line connected to the supply network and to a hot water line. On the output side, the mixer tap can be connected to a guided to the water outlet of the sanitary fitting mixing water pipe.
  • connection piece is provided on the input side of the water outlet of the sanitary fitting, which has a first connection opening for the hot water line, a second connection opening for the mixed water line and / or a third connection opening for the supply line of the cooler, Karbonator- and / or filter unit ,
