Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary fitting for dispensing treated liquids, comprising a first control element for setting the amount of liquid to be dispensed and a second control element for setting the type of liquid to be dispensed, with at least one of the two control elements having a plurality of defined control positions.
  • the invention further relates to a sanitary system, comprising a sanitary fitting and a treatment device, which is connected to the sanitary fitting to provide treated liquid.
  • Sanitary fittings have become known in many different ways.
  • Known sanitary fittings have, for example, a fitting body with at least one actuator for setting at least one property of a fluid flow conducted through the sanitary fitting.
  • the property can be, for example, the flow rate of the fluid stream or the temperature of the fluid stream.
  • the fluid flow is mixed, for example, from a separate cold water and hot water flow by means of a mixing device and is routed from there to an outlet.
  • a sanitary fitting has become known with at least one first actuating element for setting the temperature and/or quantity of mixed water and with at least one second actuating element for setting the quantity of hot water.
  • the second actuating element which enables the amount of hot water to be set, is designed as a rotary selector switch. This must first be turned in a first direction in order to activate the hot water function. This must then be turned in the opposite direction to the first direction in order to set the desired amount of hot water.
  • a sanitary fitting for dispensing treated liquids, in particular for drinks comprising a first control element for adjusting the quantity of the treated liquid to be dispensed and an actuating element for providing the quantity of treated liquid set by means of the first control element, with at least a second Actuating element for selecting a type of treatment, in particular from at least two different types of treatment, is arranged for non-treated liquid, the first and the at least one second actuating element being actuatable independently of one another.
  • the two adjusting elements have defined adjusting positions, with the type and quantity of the processed liquid being permanently assigned to each adjusting position.
  • One object of the present invention is therefore to specify a sanitary fitting and a sanitary system which have increased flexibility in terms of adaptability to different quantities and types of the treated liquid, while at the same time being simple to manufacture and having a high level of user experience.
  • One of the advantages achieved in this way is that the flexibility is significantly increased both for a user and for a manufacturer of the sanitary fitting.
  • a user can thus adapt optimally to his existing drinking vessels according to his wishes or, for example, corresponding quantity specifications.
  • the advantage for the manufacturer is that, depending on the country in which the sanitary fitting is used, he can initially preconfigure the sanitary fitting with regard to the quantities to be dispensed without having to structurally change the sanitary fitting as a whole.
  • Another advantage is the high level of user experience, since the user can decide for himself and program the positions of the control elements with functions such as the type of liquid or quantity. This also improves usability.
  • treated liquid is to be understood in the broadest sense and refers in particular in the claims, preferably in the description, to liquids, in particular water in the form of tap water from a water supplier or the like, which is additionally improved in terms of its properties and /or its composition is changed.
  • treated water can have a high temperature, so-called hot water, a different degree of carbonization, a partially different composition or the like than the water originally provided by the water supplier.
  • treated liquid is not to be understood in particular as warm or cold water, which is usually provided by a water supplier in a detached house, apartment building or the like and whose temperature may be adjusted via a heater or the like.
  • type of treatment is to be understood in the broadest sense and refers, in particular in the claims, preferably in the description, not only to the basic type of treatment of a liquid, for example whether the water has been carbonated or not, but also to the degree to which Intensity or concentration of treatment, for example the intensity of carbonation.
  • Different types of processing are to be understood as meaning, for example, different degrees of carbonization, for example “still”, “medium” or “classic”.
  • Different types of treatment are also to be understood as meaning different temperatures of hot water, water filtered to different extents, different concentrations of flavoring additives or flavorings, different types of mineralization and different concentrations of the same type of mineralization or the like.
  • type of processing also includes, in particular, “non-processing”.
  • At least one of the adjusting elements and/or the control device has a wired and/or wireless interface for configuring at least one of the adjusting positions.
  • a user can configure the control positions of the control elements with functions in a simple and direct manner, for example via a Bluetooth connection of his smartphone using a corresponding app.
  • a display device is arranged for optical and/or acoustic display of the configuration.
  • the advantage of this is that the user experience is further improved through the display or feedback of different statuses, error messages and the like.
  • an optical sequence in the form of flashing and/or intermittent display of colors can be provided by means of the display device for configuring the control device and at least one defined actuating element position.
  • control device is designed to store different configurations for different users of the sanitary fitting. This improves the user experience even further, since different users of the sanitary fitting can store different profiles so that they can always operate the sanitary fitting in the usual way.
  • control device has an interface for a user to select a desired configuration.
  • a sensor switch which can be operated by tapping, or a mechanical switch can be provided for this purpose, for example.
  • At least one of the adjustment positions is configured in a cloud-based manner, with the control device having an interface for connecting to the Internet.
  • the display device is integrated in at least one of the actuating elements. Overall space can thus be saved.
  • the optical display device is designed in the form of at least one ring.
  • the operability is thus also improved.

  • the sanitary fitting 1 is part of a sanitary system 200 of figure 3 .
  • the sanitary fitting 1 comprises a cylindrical fitting body 2 on which an actuator unit 3a, 3b is arranged perpendicularly to the cylinder axis, ie along the axis A, on different sides of the fitting body 2.
  • the first actuator unit 3a is used to set a mixed water temperature and a flow rate of a mixed water based on hot and cold water that has not been treated.
  • the first actuator unit 3a comprises a single-lever mixing device 8.
  • the second actuator unit 3b which is described in the following figure 2 is described in more detail, an amount and a treatment type for treated water can be set and a delivery of the treated amount of water can be triggered.
  • a water outlet 5 is further pivotally arranged via an outlet arm 4, which can be acted upon by mixed water. Furthermore, the water outlet 5 is connected to a holding arm 6 via a detachable connection 56 , the holding arm 6 in turn being pivotably arranged on the fitting body 2 parallel to the cylinder axis of the fitting body 2 .
  • the detachable connection 56 can be made here, for example, by a magnetic force.
  • a further water outlet 7 is arranged on the underside of the holding arm 6, via which treated water, which can be adjusted by means of the second actuator unit 3b, can be discharged.
  • figure 2 shows a three-dimensional section of the sanitary fitting according to FIG figure 1 and figure 3 a sanitary system according to an embodiment of the present invention with a sanitary fitting according to figure 2 .
