  • Patent number: 9695577
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for automatic flushing of fluid lines, in particular potable water lines. The invention further relates to a device for automatic flushing of fluid lines, in particular potable water lines. The invention is based on the technical problem to provide a method and a device for automatic flushing which allows a flushing behaviour that is better-suited to the circumstances and more reliable. The technical problem is solved by a method for automatic flushing of at least one fluid line, in particular a potable water line, in which a temperature profile of the fluid is measured, in which the measured data are evaluated and in which the automatic flushing of the at least one fluid line is influenced by an outcome of the evaluation.

  • Patent number: 9599266
    Abstract: A connector, particularly for connecting pipes, includes a base body, a sealing element and a member for fixing a pipe inserted into the connector, wherein the base body has an insertion opening on one side for the insertion of a pipe and the sealing element is arranged in an essentially cylindrically symmetrical recess set embedded in the base body and wherein the essentially cylindrically symmetrical recess at least partly has a smaller depth in the region between the position of the inset sealing element and the side of the recess facing the insertion opening of the base body than in the region of the position of the sealing element.

  • Patent number: 9027593
    Abstract: The invention relates to a check valve for blocking a fluid-carrying line in case of reversal of the flow direction, containing a valve housing defining a flow path and having two connecting pieces and a valve seat therebetween, and a flap module mounted in the valve housing and containing a shut-off body interacting with the valve seat, a bearing device for pivotably supporting the shut-off body such that the latter is movable between an open position and a closed position, and a lever extending between the shut-off body and the bearing device and being connected to the shut-off body and the bearing device. For easier manufacturing, the invention proposes that a part of the flap module is formed by at least one sheet-metal shaped part.
