Abstract: A plaster-protective cover for bathroom fittings is mounted recessed in the wall, the cover being fixed to the buried part of the fitting and having an outwards-facing dome-shaped cap designed to protect the fitting parts inside it. The hole in the wall for the fitting is sealed by a collar-like sealing element which produces a watertight seal and which has, at the wall end, an annular flange which rests against the wall. The flange is embedded in a layer of sealing material applied following installation of the buried part of the fitting as the bed layer for subsequently laid tiling, and the flange thus seals off the edge of the hole pierced in the wall for the buried part of the fitting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a check valve, particularly for sanitary water fittings, whereby preferably the valve closing member (11) is composed of a cone (4) and a cone cap (5), which is provided in the closing direction of the check valve with a dome-like attachment (12) wherein the valve closing member 98) of a pressure-relief valve is located, while the cone (4) has in the opening direction of the check valve a tubular extension (14) with a lateral inlet opening (13), the upper end of this extension forming a valve seat (15) for the valve closing member (8) of the pressure-relief valve (10), whereby this valve closing member (8) on its side facing away from the valve seat (15) rests on the top (16) of the attachment (12).

Abstract: A check valve with a housing having a valve seat, a valve closing member cooperating with the valve seat and an upstream dirt trapping filter, particularly for sanitary water fittings, wherein the dirt trapping filter and housing are of a unitary construction.

Abstract: A passage choke in particular for the outlet of a plumbing fixture which is installed between the end (9) of the outlet (5) and an aerator (6) or a flow controller, which is provided with a through-flow opening (8) which advantageously has to enlarge it a knockout (12).

Abstract: A sanitary mixer tap with thermostat control comprises a cold water inlet (1), a hot water inlet (2) and a mixed water outlet, and incorporates a fixed valve seat disc (3), a valve disc (4), a temperature control and regulation unit (5), a control and regulation piston (6), a temperature dependent regulating element (7), an actuating lever, and a control lever (8) connected to the actuating lever. The valve seat disc (3) has a cold water inlet opening (9) connecting with the cold water inlet (1) and a hot water inlet opening (10) connecting with the hot water inlet (2), and the valve disc has passages (11, 12) communicating with the cold water inlet opening (9) and the hot water inlet opening (10) of the valve seat disk (3). The temperature control and regulating unit (5) has cold and hot water inlet openings (13, 14) communicating with the passages (11, 12) in the valve disc (4), and also annular spaces (15, 16) for cold and hot water respectively.

Abstract: A shower partition of the type which is attached to a wall and which can be swiveled as well as swung open and closed, between a rest position and an open position in which the shower partition forms an enclosed shower stall in conjunction with the wall to which it is attached. The shower partition includes a pair of separate subunits, each of which includes a plurality of segments which are hinged with one another. A first end of each subunit is attached to the wall in spaced apart relationship with respect to the first end of the other subunit, and opposite, second ends of the subunits abut one another, when opened, to form the shower stall. When the subunits are opened to form the shower stall, the inner segments are able to fold outward to the rest position while the outer segments are able to fold inward into the rest position but are blocked from folding further outward.

Abstract: A valve has a housing provided with a fixed inlet disk in the housing formed with throughgoing water-inlet ports and a fixed outlet disk transversely spaced in the housing from the inlet disk and formed with deflecting chambers aligned transversely with the inlet ports. A movable valve disk in the housing between the fixed disks is formed with throughgoing passages alignable transversely between the respective inlet ports and deflecting chambers and has a side forming with the housing an outlet recess. Toothed steps are formed on the side of the movable valve disk to reduce noise.

Abstract: The disadvantages of existing cover surrounds for wall-mounted bathroom fittings are avoided by the invention by virtue of the fact that the cover surround comprises an inner supporting plate (10) fastened to the wall (7) and an outer cover plate (11). The inner supporting plate (10) is preferably designed to be held in place by fixation means (13), while the outer cover plate (11) can be clipped over the inner supporting plate (10), thus concealing the fixation means (13) used to fasten the supporting plate (10).

Abstract: A bath and shower device with a bathtub (1) and a related shower partition (4) attached to a wall (2) above an upper edge (3) of the bathtub (1), the bathtub (1) having a bottom (5) with a planar base (6) and the shower partition (4) having several segments (7) that are hinged to one another so as to be able to swing and fold from an unfolded shower position, forming a shower stall, into a rest position, folded against the wall (2), freeing bathtub (1), and vice versa.The bath and shower device is improved with regard to shower and safety engineering in that base (6) of the bathtub (1) , seen in the longitudinal direction of bathtub (1), is placed approximately in the center of bottom (5).

Abstract: A sanitary mixing unit, especially in the form of a single thermostat, has a cold and hot water inlet and a mixed water outlet. Valves for shutting off and controlling the water flow are arranged before the thermostat control and thus before the mixing chamber in the direction of flow. The valves are simultaneously activatable by a spindle. The movable valve closing members are fine adjustable independent from one another relative to the respective valve seats for a secure shut-off. An automatic fine adjustment of the movable valve closing members during shut-off of the mixing unit is provided by employing a central spindle with a fixedly arranged toothed wheel at its end section facing the valves. The toothed wheel engages two spur gears which are cooperating via a slip coupling with two single spindles of the valves.

Abstract: A spray head (1) for a sink faucet (2) or the like that is suited for connection to a low-pressure storage tank (open hot water storage tank), with a water feed (4), a normal jet discharge (7) placed centrally in particular, a spray discharge (9) placed in particular surrounding normal jet discharge (7) concentrically and with a multiplicity of small spray holes (10), and a reversing valve (13) in which, in the normal position, reversing valve (13) connects normal jet discharge (7) to water feed (4) and separates spray discharge (9) from water feed (4) and, in a spray position, connects spray discharge (9) to water feed (4) and separates normal jet discharge (7) from water feed (4), is completely suited for use in connection with a low-pressure storage tank by a bypass pipe (21) that acts in the spray position being provided in reversing valve (13) between water feed (4) and normal jet discharge (7) and the flow resistance of bypass pipe (21) being greater than the flow resistance of spray discharge (9) when

Abstract: A sanitary mixing valve for controlling the flow and mix of hot and cold water supplied respectively from a hot water inlet and a cold water inlet. The valve includes a valve body coupleable to the hot and cold water inlets and having a water outlet. A disk packet is supported on the valve body and includes a control disk. The control disk includes a mixing chamber for receiving a mix of the hot and cold water. A temperature-dependent control element is positioned on the control disk to directly measure the temperature of the mixed water in the mixing chamber. The temperature of the water emerging from the water outlet is regulated according to the measured temperature.
