  • Publication number: 20150355648
    Abstract: In a sanitary installation part (1) which, along with a functional unit (7), forms a flow volume regulator, it is proposed that a regulating element (13), which can be adjusted along an adjustment path, be coupled to a temperature-sensitive drive unit (15) such that different regulating positions of the regulating element (13) are set in dependence on the temperature of the medium flowing through the installation part (1), wherein the different regulating positions realize in each case different volume-flow dependencies (11, 12, 45, 48) and/or flow resistances (cf. FIG. 1).

  • Publication number: 20150315772
    Abstract: A sanitary insert, which is arranged in a water line, is provided. The sanitary insert includes a mixing device with at least one throttling or closing element, which can be moved under the pressure of the inflowing water from a mixing or open position into a throttling or closed position against a restoring force. The mixing device offers a relatively large clear flow cross section when the at least one throttling or closing element in the mixing or open position, and, by contrast thereto, a reduced clear flow cross section when the at least one throttling or closing element is in the throttling or closed position. The installation element always offers an optimum flow cross section both in low and high pressure ranges.

  • Publication number: 20150306860
    Abstract: A method for cutting to length a piece of tube having an inner tube and an outer tube sheathing, the piece of tube being detached with the aid of a cutting tool at a cutting site in a plane oriented transversely to the longitudinal extent of the tube. The tube sheathing is surrounded by a severable tube fixing element, which covers over the intended cutting site before the piece of tube is detached using the cutting tool at the cutting site, and the tube fixing element completely encloses the outer tube sheathing in the circumferential direction. The tube fixing element is fixed on the tube sheathing and/or the tube enclosed by the tube fixing element is severed with the cutting tool such that a relative displacement of the tube fixing element with respect to the tube sheathing or of the tube sheathing with respect to the inner tube is prevented.

  • Publication number: 20150308591
    Abstract: A security adapter, which is provided for connecting a first and a second fluid line portion of a fluid line. The security adapter has an inner sleeve, which at a first sleeve end region has a fastening thread provided for connection to a first fluid line portion and at a second sleeve end region has an outer thread in the form of a movement thread. The outer thread can be screwed together with an inner thread of an outer sleeve, wherein the sleeve inner circumference of the outer sleeve is provided with a stop, against which a counter stop arranged on the outer circumference of the inner sleeve bears, in a rotational end position of the security adapter such that the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve are freely rotatable in relation to one another without engagement of the inner and outer thread forming the movement thread.

  • Patent number: 9122277
    Abstract: Disclosed is a flow regulator, especially for insertion into a jet regulator in an outlet fixture, comprising an insertion member that is penetrated by at least one flow duct in an axial direction as well as a throttle element which forms a control gap along with the insertion member in order to allow a fluid to penetrate into the at least one flow duct. The aim of the invention is to create a flow regulator which allows for significantly greater durability during use while offering maximum ease of operation when fluid is discharged. Said aim is achieved by a flow regulator in which the throttle element is embodied as a dimensionally stable throttle cap that is supported in relation to the insertion member via an elastic spring element.

  • Patent number: 9114414
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flow regulator (1) having a flow regulator housing, with a rotor disk (9) being supported in a rotary fashion in the interior space of its housing, which is embodied at least in a partial section of the disk in a liquid-permeable fashion and (9) is in a driven connection with a rotor disk drive, which transfers the flow of the water flowing through the flow regulator housing into a rotary drive force used for a rotary motion of the rotor disk (9). Using the flow regulator according to the invention considerable water savings can be achieved without here any reduction of the volume flow being clearly discernible.

  • Publication number: 20150211661
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for cutting a tube segment (1) from a tube, said tube being provided with an inner tube (2) and an outer tube casing (3) surrounding the inner tube (2). Said the tube segment (1) is separated from the tube, by means of a cutting tool, at a cutting point in a cutting plane oriented transversely to the longitudinal extension of the tube. The tube casing (3) of the tube is surrounded by a separable tube retainer (4), which covers the provided cutting point before the tube segment (1) is separated from the tube, by means of the cutting tool, at the cutting point, wherein the tube retainer (4) completely surrounds the outer tube casing (3) in a peripheral direction.

  • Publication number: 20150204058
    Abstract: A jet regulator includes a ring-shaped or sleeve-shaped jet regulator housing, the outlet face side of which is formed as a perforated, grate and/or mesh structure with throughflow openings bordered by flow-guiding walls. The perforated, grate and/or mesh structure on the outlet face side is produced at least in regions and at least on the surface from a manually deformable dimensionally elastic plastic material. The outlet face side of the jet regulator housing is in the form of an outlet disk which can be inserted into the jet regulator housing and which bears the perforated, grate and/or mesh structure. The separate configuration of the outlet disk on the one hand and the jet regulator housing on the other hand facilitates the separate production of said jet regulator constituents even from materials which cannot be welded or otherwise connected to one another, if appropriate in different production processes.
