  • Patent number: 11761187
    Abstract: A WC cistern (1) with a wall (2) which forms a substantially cuboidal water tank (3). An intake (5) with which the water tank (3) can be filled is guided through the wall (2). A shutoff valve (7) is arranged in the intake (5), the shutoff valve interacting with a switch-off device (8) which triggers the shutoff valve (7) when a switch-off level (14) in the water tank (3) is reached. An injector (15) is arranged in the water tank (3) in a construction space (13) above the switch-off level (14). The outflow-side outlet (16) of the injector (15) is led out of the water tank (3).

  • Publication number: 20230235826
    Abstract: A check valve having a valve that is movable by incoming water in the flow direction, from a closed position, where it bears against a first valve seat, against a restoring force into an open position, where it is raised from the first valve seat, and having a pressure relief valve with a closing member that is movable by pressure of the water flowing back against the flow direction, from a closed position, in which it bears against a second valve seat, against a restoring force into an open position where it is raised from the second valve seat. The restoring force acting on the closing member is greater than the restoring force acting on the valve body. The closing member has a closing member core made of a first material, and at least in the partial region thereof that abuts the second valve seat in the closed position, has a film or a layer made of a second relatively softer and/or elastic material.

  • Publication number: 20230214991
    Abstract: A method for identifying a jet regulator (1) with improved precision and robustness is provided using a captured photo of a hole pattern (4) of an outlet structure (3) of the jet regulator (1). The captured photo is first compared with different stored hole pattern types (15) in a computer-implemented manner in a first step, and based on an evaluation of the respective degree of a match between the captured photo and each hole pattern type (15), the hole pattern type (15) on which the captured hole pattern (4) is based is ascertained. Subsequently, in another step, the ascertained hole pattern type (15) and the captured hole pattern (4) are examined for deviations in a computer-implemented manner, and identification information which uniquely identifies the jet regulator (1) is ascertained in a computer-implement manner using detected or undetected deviations and is optionally output.

  • Patent number: 11680667
    Abstract: A ball joint having first and second articulated coupling parts having interconnected liquid ducts. The second coupling part is held pivotably by a spherical front end region between a shape-adapted joint socket on the first coupling part and a joint head on a holding element in the inner cavity of the second coupling part. The holding element interconnects the liquid ducts, and the second coupling part has, on its inner wall delimiting the inner cavity, an annular groove with a ring seal. A first annular shoulder is on the inner wall of the second coupling part, an annular insert part is insertable into the inner cavity of the second coupling part, and the insert part is spaced apart from the first annular shoulder such that the spacing between the first annular shoulder and the front edge of the insert part facing the first annular shoulder forms the annular groove.
