Abstract: A sanitary outlet unit (1) is provided, including an outlet armature (2), with a flow regulator (4) in a region of the water outlet (3) thereof, wherein an aeration device is provided for aeration of the water flow. The outlet unit (1) provides that the aeration unit (5) is located in the outlet armature (2) and/or in at least one water line leading to the outlet armature (2) separately from the flow regulator (4). Through the spatial separation of the functions of flow shaping or water discharge and the aeration of the water flow, there are many possible embodiments for optionally providing the water outlet (3) of the sanitary outlet unit (1) with an extremely thin design.
Abstract: A flow regulator, jet regulator or backflow preventer (11) having at least two components or parts (2, 11), a first one (2) of which can be inserted into a receiving opening (12) of the second part (12). The two parts (2, 11) can be interconnected using a locking arrangement (13, 17). One part is provided with at least one locking cam while the other part (11) is provided with a locking groove which is assigned to the locking cam and is used as a counterpart. One of the parts is provided with a slot (15) or similar recess located at a distance (a) from the outer or inner circumference of the part (2) in the area of the at least one locking groove.
Abstract: A sanitary outlet fitting with a liquid guide which opens into an outlet fitting, in the region of which an insertable cartridge is provided. The liquid guide is matched in at least the mouth region of the outlet fitting to the insertable cartridge. The insertable cartridge is held in the outlet fitting by a sleeve-shaped intermediate holder, which is held in the outlet fitting in a radially sealed manner. A peripheral edge region on the admission side of the insertable cartridge is held in an axially sealed manner in the outlet fitting. The insertable cartridge is inserted with the aid of the intermediate holder supporting it into the outlet fitting to a depth such that the insertable cartridge is held securely. Accordingly, the insertable cartridge is scaled axially in its peripheral region on the admission side. The intermediate holder can also be held in a radially sealed manner in the outlet fitting to prevent undesired creepage.
Abstract: A sanitary water outlet has at least two ball-and-socket joints, each of which comprises a socket and a spherical part pivotably held therein which have mutually connected water conduits. The outer circumference of the socket of one ball joint is formed as the spherical part of the adjacent ball joint. The action radii of the at least two mutually connected ball joints are added to one another and therefore provide a significantly enlarged action radius. Because the socket of one ball joint is constructed on its outer circumference at the same time as the spherical part of the adjacent ball joint, the water outlet according to the invention has a comparatively low overall height.
Abstract: A jet regulator is provided with a jet fractioning device designed as perforated plate with a number of flow-through holes that are located at a distance to each other. The perforated plate has at least one reinforcement rib on its flat side on the inflow side and/or outflow side to reinforce the perforated plate. On its side facing the outflow side the jet regulator has an additional perforated plate with a number of flow-through holes defined by flow guide walls. At least one distance piece is provided on at least one of the sides of the perforated plate that are facing each other and/or on an adjacent jet regulator component part. The distance piece deforms the perforated plate and the jet regulator component part as the result of a relative motion during the jet regulator installation from a non-deformed initial position into a round bodied or convexly bent application position.
Abstract: A jet regulator (1) having a jet fractionating device (2) which distributes the incoming water flow into a plurality of individual jets is provided. The jet regulator (1) has at least one individual jet, from the individual jets formed by the fractionating device, which impacts on a node point (3) of a criss-crossing grid of bars (4, 5) of an outlet side downstream grid network (6). At least one node point (3) is configured as an inlet side recess of the grid network (6) and/or the jet regulator is an aerated jet regulator having a jet regulator housing (7) which includes at least one aeration opening (8) on a periphery of the housing thereof and at least one deflecting projection (9) which is used to maintain the water jet at a distance from the aeration opening that is arranged on the inner periphery of the housing in the direction of flow below the at least one aeration opening (8). The jet regulator (1) provides an improved fractionating of the incoming individual jets.
Abstract: An insertable component that is embodied as a non-return element and/or as a through-flow regulator is provided which can be inserted into a gas or liquid line. The insertable component (1) includes a housing (2) formed of at least two housing parts (3, 4). A housing seal (5) is located between the housing parts (3, 4). The housing seal is joined as a single piece to an annular membrane (11), which is used as a closing body for the non-return element, and/or a regulating or throttle body. The insertable component includes a small number of individual parts and is characterized by a compact structure and low production costs.
Abstract: A flow-volume regulator has an elastic throttle body which delimits, between itself and a housing wall, a control gap that changes under the pressure of a fluid flow, and at least one associated bypass and/or cleaning channel that has at least one channel inlet arranged upstream of the control gap and at least one channel outlet arranged downstream of the control gap. The bypass and/or cleaning channel contains a valve which can move against a restoring force under the pressure of the oncoming fluid, from an open position into a closed position, and seals the bypass and/or cleaning channel in its closed position. The flow-volume regulator allows an additional volume of the fluid through the bypass channel when the oncoming fluid is at low pressure, so that its flow curve is significantly increased in the low pressure range.
Abstract: The invention concerns a sanitary component (1) that has a jet regulating device (4) in the interior of a mounting housing (6). The jet regulating device (4) includes at least one directly-mounted element (5) housed in the mounting housing (6), this element being provided with ridges (11) transverse to the flow direction and defining between them passageways (12). The invention is characterized in that the ridges (11) of at least one directly mounted element (5) are arranged in the form of a grid or network and intersect at junction points. The component (1) according to the invention, which can be manufactured inexpensively, exhibits the best possible jet regulating characteristics, even if the transverse surface is relatively small; moreover, the component (1) according to the invention requires little maintenance, without any risk of malfunction resulting from dirt carried by the liquid flow.
Abstract: A jet regulator (1) which can be inserted with its jet regulator housing (4) into the water outlet (2) of a sanitary outlet fitting (3) from a direction of the outlet end side and which, in the use position, is releasably fastened or fixed in the water outlet (2). The jet regulator is releasably latched in the water outlet (2). The latching device for fixing the jet regulator in the water outlet (2) is not visible from the outside and therefore also do not have an objectionable appearance.
Abstract: A telescoping water outlet comprises an outlet pipe having an outlet opening at an end thereof, and an inner pipe, at least a longitudinal portion of which is enclosed by the outlet pipe, forming an annular space between the two pipes. An inner pipe head is mounted to and closes the end of the inner pipe that is nearest the outlet opening, and includes an annular flange that bears displaceably against an inner wall of the outlet pipe. Fluid flow openings are provided between the interior of the inner pipe and the annular space, via a circumferential surface of the inner pipe head, and between the annular space and an interior of the outer pipe, via the annular flange.
