Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fitting with a swivel spout according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the outer fitting housing can be pivotally mounted on a radially inner, pivot-fixed housing insert.
  • a single-lever mixing cartridge is integrated with the operating lever, the temperature and / or amount of effluent mixed water is adjustable.
  • An adapter is integrated into the housing insert for easy connection of the cold and hot water pipes to the mixing cartridge. On the input side of the adapter, the cold and hot water pipes are connected. On its output side, the adapter is in connection with the mixing cartridge.
  • the adapter has a flow passage, which connects the mixing cartridge fluidly with a guided to the water outlet mixing water pipe.
  • the mixed-water flow passage in the adapter is an annular space running around the housing axis with a radially open flow area which is fluidically connected to a mixed water line leading to the water outlet.
  • the cold and hot water channels of the adapter extend in the axial direction through the mixed water annulus. That is, the adapter-side cold and hot water channels are lapped by draining mixed water.
  • a mixed water guide through the adapter of the annular space in the axial direction is sealed at the top and bottom, each with a ring seal against the inner wall of the valve body.
  • the two ring seals are circumferentially positioned between the adapter outer circumference and the inner circumference of the fitting housing and therefore designed with a correspondingly large sealing diameter. This results in a pivoting operation comparatively large friction between the rotating valve body and the pivot-fixed housing insert, which can limit the ease of use.
  • the impermeable seal can be carried out only with increased assembly-technical effort and material costs.
  • the mixed water is passed to the mixing cartridge through a housing insert to the water-conducting swivel outlet.
  • the water is always in contact with the brass housing.
  • the swivel spout is cast in common, costly practice brass or soldered together from two brass parts.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a low-cost sanitary fitting in which the waterway is separated from the metal of the fitting housing, whereby instead of brass, a cheaper zinc die-casting is used.
  • another object is to simplify the assembly and manufacture of the valve body, specifically using a low cost zinc injection molding process.
  • a fitting is to be provided in which the effort for sealing is reduced in a simple manner.
  • the object is solved by the features of claim 1.
  • Preferred embodiments of the invention are disclosed in the subclaims. According to the characterizing part of claim 1, the mixed water flow passage is formed in the adapter no more than a radially outwardly open annular space which can be sealed only with high assembly effort, but rather as a mixed water channel having a, open in the axial direction outlet opening.
  • a downstream mixing water line can be connected to the mixing water outlet opening of the adapter with a sealing diameter that is much smaller than that of the prior art.
  • the adapter may have a mixed water connection which delimits the outlet opening which is open in the axial direction. Furthermore, the adapter may have a cold water channel and a hot water channel, which connect the cold and hot water pipes with the valve member. The cold and hot water channels of the adapter can be limited by cold and hot water connection.
  • the hot and cold water pipes of the adapter are lapped by the outflowing mixed water.
  • Such a mixed water flushing is omitted in the adapter geometry according to the invention.
  • the cold and hot water pipe can be arranged axially parallel to the mixing water pipe.
  • the hot and cold water nozzles can preferably be arranged eccentrically to the housing axis, while the mixed water nozzle are arranged centrally to the housing axis.
  • the protruding from a main body of the adapter hot, cold and mixed water nozzles are preferably space-saving at one, the cold and hot water lines facing front side of the adapter arranged.
  • a mixed water line in the flow direction can be embodied as a conduit element separate from the fitting housing, for example as a water hose.
  • the water hose can be guided continuously from the adapter to the outlet side jet former of the water outlet. In this way, the mixed water flowing out from the mixing cartridge can be guided without contact with respect to an inner wall of the fitting housing up to the water outlet opening.
  • the use of such a mixed water line the use of brass as a material for the valve body is no longer required, but is the use of a more cost-zinc armature housing possible.
  • the mixed water line can be designed differently.
  • the mixing water hose is to make sufficiently flexible, so that the connected to the pivot-fixed adapter mixing water hose line can follow a pivoting movement of the valve body permanently reliable.
  • the run to the water outlet separate from the valve body mixing water pipe is formed in several parts with at least one Umlenkffy.
  • the deflecting insert may be pivotally mounted on the pivotable adapter at bearings. In a bearing eccentric with respect to the housing axis, compensating movements between the deflecting insert and the valve housing in the radial direction result in the case of a valve pivoting operation. This can lead to mechanical loads on the deflection insert.
  • a centric mounting of the deflection insert ie coaxially with the housing axis, is preferred, as a result of which the compensation movements are eliminated.
  • the housing axis is to be understood in the present application, a pivot axis about which the valve body is rotatable in a user-side pivoting operation.
  • the surface of the housing axis is to be understood as meaning a surface normal which passes through the center of gravity of a cross-sectional area through the valve.
  • a hollow-cylindrical fitting housing whose central axis forms the housing axis.
  • the deflecting insert can also have a driver, by means of which the deflecting insert can be coupled in motion with the fitting housing in the pivoting direction.
  • a driver by means of which the deflecting insert can be coupled in motion with the fitting housing in the pivoting direction.
  • the mixed water line is exposed to no mechanical stress due to pivotal actuations of the valve body.
  • the water line possibly connected to the deflection insert is thus decoupled from all movement forces or moments which are caused by the rotation of the fitting housing.
  • the diverter insert may be liquid-tightly coupled to the inlet outlet opening with an inlet-side channel section and having an outlet-side channel section, to which, for example, a tubular water line can be connected, which is guided to the water outlet opening.
  • the inlet-side channel section of the deflecting insert in a double function can at the same time form a bearing point.
  • the inlet-side channel portion is preferably coaxial with the housing axis in a pivotable and liquid-tight connector with the mixed water nozzle of the adapter, wherein the connector is designed to allow a pivoting movement of the deflecting insert.
  • the deflecting insert can have a bearing contour, that is to say, for example, a bearing journal, on its side which is axially opposite the inlet-side channel section. This can be pivotally mounted with movement play in a corresponding mating contour of a housing insert.
  • the adapter can be arranged together with the mixing cartridge in a housing insert.
  • the housing insert can be designed as a hollow cylinder, the hollow profile of which defines a bottom of the insert on the bottom side and has an upwardly open end face, through which the adapter insert and the valve member can be inserted during assembly.
  • the housing insert thus forms a stable support base for .the Ventilorgari, the adapter and the deflection insert.
  • the insert bottom of the housing insert connecting connections for line connection between the inlet port of the adapter and the hot and cold water lines have.
  • the countercontour cooperating with the bearing contour (for example a bearing journal) of the deflecting insert may be formed in the insert bottom of the housing insert.
  • the housing insert may be provided with pivot stops which limit pivotal movement of the valve body about the housing axis.
  • the housing insert may have a radially outer circumferential groove, in which a stop screw of the valve body protrudes radially inwardly.
