Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary fitting for dispensing treated liquids, comprising a first control element for setting a quantity of a liquid to be dispensed and a second control element for setting the type of liquid to be dispensed.
  • 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.
  • the invention further relates to a method for operating a sanitary fitting.
  • 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 adjusting 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 actuating element, wherein at least one second actuating element is arranged for selecting a type of treatment, in particular from at least two different types of treatment, of non-treated liquid, the first and the at least one second actuating element being independent are operable from each other.
  • a ring-shaped display device is also arranged, with which different colored representations can be displayed, for example the colors red, white, green, yellow and/or orange. The display device can also display the color intermittently, in other words provide flashing in the respective color.
  • the disadvantage here is that only limited and inadequate feedback or acknowledgment of the position of the actuators or the respective processing device can be given to a user.
  • Feedback to the user is only possible through individual optical signals or colors, which is only possible to a limited extent due to the large number of types of treatment of liquids, states of the sanitary fitting and components of this, in particular a treatment device, etc.
  • One object of the present invention is therefore to specify a sanitary fitting, a sanitary system and a method for operating a sanitary fitting which provide increased flexibility with regard to the display while at the same time being simple to manufacture and operate.
  • One of the advantages achieved in this way is that the display of states of the sanitary fitting and corresponding feedback to a user of the sanitary fitting is significantly improved. In this way, errors, statuses or events can also be displayed directly to a user, so that the usability is improved.
  • a further advantage is the increased flexibility, since a corresponding display can now be made to a user almost independently of the number and the states of components or positions of the actuating elements.
  • a further advantage is that a simple and inexpensive implementation or a simple and inexpensive implementation is made possible.
  • 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 its properties and/or by a separate device. or changed in its composition.
  • 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, the intensity or concentration the processing, for example the intensity of the carbonization.
  • 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”.
  • each display element can be designed to display at least three different colors.
  • control device is designed to display optical sequences by means of the optical display elements.
  • an optical sequence can be provided in the form of flashing and/or intermittent display of colors.
  • the two adjusting elements are arranged along a common axis on the sanitary fitting, in particular on the same side of the sanitary fitting. This saves installation space on the one hand and at the same time simplifies operation by a user.
  • the display device is arranged on the axis next to the two control elements or between the two control elements.
  • the display device comprises a number of partial display devices which are spaced apart from one another, in particular are arranged on different axes of the sanitary fitting.
  • One of the advantages achieved in this way is improved user-friendliness and faster perceptibility and assignment of displays on the display device, since the respective sub-display devices can be arranged directly on the respective components. For example, when “hot water” is selected, a red indicator can be arranged at the spout or at the outlet to indicate that hot water is being dispensed, whereas the corresponding control element is arranged on the side of the fitting body.
  • the display device is integrated in at least one of the actuating elements. In this way, installation space for the sanitary fitting can be reduced overall.
  • the optical display device is designed in the form of at least one ring.
  • the operability is thus also improved.
  • the display device comprises more than 6 and less than 30 display elements, in particular more than 12 and less than 24, preferably more than 15 and less than 20, in particular 18 display elements. A sufficient number of statuses can thus be displayed while the production costs for the display elements are low at the same time.
  • control device is wired or wirelessly connected to the display device and/or the processing device.
  • the display device and/or the control device has an interface, in particular designed to be wireless, for configuring the display of the display device in relation to positions of the actuating elements.
  • an interface in particular designed to be wireless, for configuring the display of the display device in relation to positions of the actuating elements.

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.
