Abstract: A control device (1) for a washroom facility that includes an actuator (2); a sensor (4) configured to detect the presence of a user in the proximity of the sensor (4); and a control circuit (6) receiving, as input, signals from the sensor (4) and configured to control the actuator (2). The sensor (4) includes an emitter (10) configured to emit an infrared signal; and a receiver (8) configured to detect the infrared signal emitted by the emitter (10). The invention also provides a washroom facility, a substance dispenser, and a hair dryer or hand dryer, including such a control device (1).

Abstract: A toilet flush opening device (10) includes a water cistern (12) that includes a lower discharge aperture (14) and a vertical moveable discharging open/close element (16) for this aperture (14), which is able to occupy a closed lower position to keep the water in the cistern (12) or an open upper position to discharge the water into a toilet bowl. The device is characterized in that the open/close element (16) can be urged from its lower position to its upper position by an electrohydraulic actuator (18) which includes a controlled solenoid valve (20), and an expandable hydraulic device (22) that can be supplied with water at pressure by the solenoid valve (20) to urge the open/close element (16) from its closed lower position to its open upper position.

Abstract: An electric control device (10) for a flushing system, of the type that includes an axial valve (18) whose shutter (22) is controlled by an axial rod (24) that is capable of being moved radially by a finger (26) actuated by an electric actuating device (32). The electric actuating device (32) includes at least one connecting rod (34) of which a first end (36) is articulated by a pivot (38) to the second end of the finger (26) and of which the second end (44) is articulated by a pivot (40) on an eccentric (42) moved by an electric motor (46), in order to generate a back-and-forth movement of the first end (28) of the finger (26) actuating the rod (24) of the shutter.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a suite of configurable products which can be configured during fitting. It also relates to a configuration tool tailored to this suite of configurable products. It relates finally to a configuration process for such products. A configuration tool (19) linked by an infrared channel (18) for communicating configuration words initially recorded in a memory (34), and selected by a keypad (23) performs the loading of the configuration words into the memory (6) of a control circuit (1) equipped with a microcontroller (2) executing a program for configuring a configurable product, such as a sanitary ware during the on-site fitting thereof. Application to a suite of sanitary ware products.
