Abstract: The device serves to fasten the outflow bend (9) to a fastening body (4), for example to a mounting frame (2). The pipe clamp (11) has a holder (12), which on an inner side (20) possesses grooves (21), which, for the axial fixing of the socket (10), cooperate with ribs (22, 23, 24) on an outer side of the socket (10). The holder (12) has a collar (19), which, for the axial fixing of the socket (10), can be mounted into a groove (25, 26) of the socket (10) or onto a rib (22, 23, 24) of the socket (10), according to choice.

Abstract: A shower drainage arrangement that has a vertically extending drain opening (13) for the shower water which is to be channelled away. Arranged downstream of the drain opening (13) is a stench trap (14), which can be connected to a disposal line (19). The drainage arrangement (13) has an inflow housing (12) which can be installed in a vertical wall (8, 4) and which forms a chamber (18) which is arranged downstream of the drain opening (13) and is intended to allow inspection of the stench trap (14). A covering (11) is preferably positioned on the front of the inflow housing (12), and this covering can be removed to allow inspection of the stench trap (14).

Abstract: The discharge valve has a valve housing (14) which has an outlet opening with a valve seat (16) and also a closure body (12). A two-quantity actuator (4) has a connecting rod (10) which is connected to the closure body (12) and by means of which the closure body (12) can optionally be raised by different displacement distances. A top activatable partial-quantity float (13) is provided for partial flushing and a bottom, full-quantity float (20), which is mounted in a pivotable manner on the valve housing (14), is provided for full flushing. The full-quantity float (20) has a blocking element (22) which, once partial flushing has been triggered, engages with the closure body (12) and blocks the latter against further displacement. This prevents the situation where, once partial flushing has been triggered, the closure body (12) is raised further and full flushing takes place.

A changeover device (26) is mounted on the housing (22) of the drainage valve (A) and can be changed over under tension in each case for opening and closing the drainage valve (A). By virtue of the changeover device (26) being arranged on the housing (22) of the drainage valve (A), the actuating part which contains the pushbutton (7) can be designed in a more space-saving and compact manner.

Abstract: A flushing device comprising an evacuation fitting (6) that is provided with a sealing member (7) within a pressurized container (2). The sealing member (7) is lifted counter to the pressure of a piston (16) in order to initiate the flushing process. A connecting device (39) for a water pipe (24) is disposed on the container (2). The flushing device further comprises a structure (49, 50) for flushing with a partial quantity of the flushing water. For example, the structure (49, 50) is provided with a power-loaded part (50) which moves the valve member (7) down onto the valve seat (5) of the evacuation fitting (6) when the flushing process is interrupted. In an alternative embodiment, two chambers are provided, only one of which is emptied during partial flushing. Flushing water can be conserved by the fact that the flushing process can be interrupted.

Abstract: A self-contained, modular electrically-operated faucets is disclosed which has all of its components which are likely to need replacement over the life of the device contained in removable modules which may be quickly and easily removed and replaced without necessitating the removal of the device from its installed location.

Abstract: A data communication system for facilitating communication between infrared devices having an initiating optical interface port that includes an IR emitter and an optical sensor. A receiving optical interface port includes an active IR emitter that emits a pulse at a predetermined interval and an optical sensor. A software application causes an Attention Signal to be emitted from the initiating IR emitter where the initiating IR emitter is positioned in detection range of the receiving optical sensor. The receiving optical interface port is controlled by a firmware application. The firmware is designed to discontinue the pulse of the active IR emitter upon detection of the Attention Signal. Once the normal pulse cycle is discontinued, the active IR emitter is then employed for transmitting data signals to the initiating optical interface port, thereby establishing an optical link between the initiating optical interface port and the receiving optical interface port.

Abstract: The discharge valve for a flushing cistern (1) has a main valve (V) with a main valve body (3) which forms a piston above which a relief chamber (4) is arranged. By means of a first auxiliary valve (HV1), the relief chamber (4) can be emptied, at least in part, in order to trigger flushing. By means of a second auxiliary valve (HV2), the relief chamber (4) can be flooded in order to interrupt flushing. The first auxiliary valve (HV1) and the second auxiliary valve (HV2) have a common auxiliary valve body (7) which, when flushing is triggered, releases the valve opening (68) of the first auxiliary valve (HV1) and closes the valve opening (6) of the second auxiliary valve (HV2). A valve seat (18) of the first auxiliary valve (HV1) and a valve seat (21) of the second auxiliary valve (HV2) are preferably arranged on the main valve body.

Abstract: The device has a housing (5) which can be fastened on the sanitary article (2) and in which is mounted a pushbutton (7) for actuating the drainage valve (A). A pulling element (16) connects the pushbutton (7) to a closure body (33) which is mounted in a displaceable manner in a housing (22) of the drainage valve (A). A changeover device (26) is mounted on the housing (22) of the drainage valve (A) and can be changed over under tension in each case for opening and closing the drainage valve (A). By virtue of the changeover device (26) being arranged on the housing (22) of the drainage valve (A), the actuating part which contains the pushbutton (7) can be designed in a more space-saving and compact manner.

Abstract: The flushing flow distributor has a first channel (21) which is to be connected to a discharge (45) of the flushing cistern (4), and a second and a third channel (24, 25, 69). The second channel (24) and the third channel (25) are in each case to be connected to a toilet bowl (10). The first channel (21) has a nozzle (17, 18, 19, 55, 62) which outputs the water to the two other channels (24, 25, 69). The nozzle (17, 18, 19, 55, 62) is preferably designed as a free jet nozzle. The flushing flow distributor is preferably designed as a pipe interrupter. It is preferably used on a pressurized flushing cistern (4) and permits flushing with less flushing water while at the same time requiring less space and with a flushing action which is at least ample.

Abstract: The pressure-flushing device comprises a pressure vessel (2), which, for receiving flushing water, has a pressure chamber (D). The pressure chamber (D) can be filled with flushing water by means of an inlet valve (7). The pressure chamber (D) consists of cylindrical pressure chamber regions (D1, D2, D3) which are interconnected in a lower region of the pressure vessel (2). The pressure chamber regions (D1, D2, D3) are preferably formed by cylindrical walls (Z1, Z2, Z3), these walls being essentially circular in horizontal section. The pressure vessel (2) can be made from plastic and is both pressure-stable and compact.

Abstract: A metering faucet assembly includes a metering cartridge valve assembly and a separate mixing control valve having a mixing valve stem that is offset relative to a valve actuator for the cartridge valve assembly and coupled to the valve actuator by a coupling mechanism that allows both the mixing valve and the cartridge valve assembly to be operated by a common operating handle. The coupling mechanism includes a slip gear mechanism that allows reciprocating movement of the operating member of the cartridge valve assembly to operate the cartridge valve and rotational movement of a mixing valve stem to operate the mixing valve. The slip gear mechanism provides an end of travel limit for the mixing valve stem and allows adjustment in the temperature limit of the hot or cold water in the mix.
