  • Patent number: 9840834
    Abstract: The invention relates to a jet regulator (1) having an annular or sleeve-shaped jet regulator housing (2), on the outlet end side of which there is held an outlet disc (3) which can be inserted into the jet regulator housing (2), which (3) has a perforated, grid and/or mesh structure with throughflow openings (5), wherein the outlet disc (3) bears a manually deformable dimensionally elastic plastics lining (4), and wherein the plastics lining (4) is of pot-shaped design. In order to reduce the production expenditure, it is provided according to the invention that the plastics lining (4), with an upwardly drawn circumferential wall (16) of its pot shape, provides sealing between the outer circumference of the outlet disc (3) and the housing inner circumference of the jet regulator housing (2).

  • Patent number: 9816255
    Abstract: A sanitary fixture having a connector assembly which includes an adapter piece is provided for connection to a single-lever mixing cartridge. A pivotable connector piece having a hose connector is pivotably mounted between the base plate and the adapter piece. The base plate includes receptacles for a cold-water hose end piece and a warm-water end piece. The connector piece has an inner duct which, at a first end, opens out to the connector assembly and, at a second end, opens out to the hose connector. The connector piece is connected via a plug-in connection to a connector-piece receptacle of the adapter piece. The connector-piece receptacle opens out into a connection duct of a first type, which extends in the adapter piece crosswise to a connection duct of a second type in the adapter piece.

  • Publication number: 20170268210
    Abstract: A sanitary insert unit is provided having a jet regulator which has a housing with a housing inlet and a housing outlet, and a jets splitter in the housing interior. The jet splitter protrudes partially into a diffuser ring, delimiting an annular channel therebetween. The diffuser ring is insertable into an outlet-side housing part of the housing until an annular step on the outer circumference of the diffuser ring bears on an inlet-side mating surface on an outlet-side housing part. A circumferential locking cam on an outer circumference of the diffuser ring is movable into locking engagement with a locking groove provided on an inner circumference of the outlet-side housing part. The locking cam has a run-on bevel which interacts with a mating bevel upstream from the locking groove in an insertion direction that has a greater angle of inclination with respect to a longitudinal axis in comparison with the run-on bevel.

  • Patent number: 9752305
    Abstract: A sanitary fixture is provided having an upstream end and a downstream end, the sanitary fixture includes a mounting housing having a thread which is matingly engagable with a thread provided on a water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting. The mounting housing has a downstream housing end side with flow-through holes. At least one insertion part can be inserted into the mounting housing as far as an insertion stop. The fixture includes an aerated jet regulator which is configured such that a circumferential wall of the mounting housing includes at least one aeration duct at least in a subregion of at least a double-walled configuration. The at least one aeration duct, which is arranged towards the downstream housing end side, opens out in at least one aeration opening leading into a housing interior of the mounting housing.

  • Publication number: 20170198461
    Abstract: A jet regulator (1) is provided including a jet regulator housing having an interior in which there is provided a perforated plate (5) with a plurality of throughflow holes (6) for dividing up the water that flows through, of which at least one of the throughflow holes (6), at least in an outflow-side hole portion, widens in a tapered or conical or stepped manner toward an outflow side. On the outflow side of the perforated plate (5) and at a distance therefrom, there is provided an encircling impingement chamfer (19) which narrows a clear housing cross section in a region of the impingement chamfer progressively in the flow direction.

  • Publication number: 20170185090
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sanitary insertion unit (1) with a flow regulator (2) that has a regulator housing (3) in which a first regulator unit (4) is provided. The first regulator unit has an annular channel (5) that surrounds a core (6) and in which an annular throttle element (7) made of an elastic material is arranged. The throttle element (7) delimits a control gap between the throttle element and a profiled regulating section (8) provided on an inner and/or outer channel wall, the passage cross-section of said gap being modifiable by the throttle element (7), which deforms under the effect of the pressure difference generated in the event of a flow.

  • Publication number: 20170173604
    Abstract: A sanitary insert part includes an insert housing, which includes in a housing interior thereof a functional element that controls throughflow and that has at least one throughflow orifice. At least one throughflow opening is delimited by a peripheral wall, the shape of which can be changed against a restoring force as a result of the pressure of the inflowing water in such a manner that the at least one throughflow orifice has a variable orifice cross section which can be changed, in dependence on the pressure of the inflowing water, between an open position and a minimized position having a reduced orifice cross section by comparison.
