Abstract: An aerator (1) having a housing (2) and a jet-splitting device (3) arranged or formed in the housing (2) for splitting an individual jet into a plurality of separate liquid components. The aerator (1) has at least two flow channels (4), which are oriented obliquely in such a way that the outlet directions (12) defined by the flow channels (4) meet each other. An insert part (5) is inserted into a hole (6) in the main body (28) of the jet-splitting device (3), which hole is oriented in particular in the longitudinal direction of the housing (2), such that the hole (6) is divided into the at least two obliquely extending flow channels.

Abstract: Disclosed is a flow rate controller in which a clear width (6) of a control gap (4) between a main part (3) and a control element (2), which is deformable according to the pressure in order for the flow rate through the control gap (4) to be kept constant, can be adjusted as a result of the fact that at least one supporting element that adjusts the clear width (6) of the control gap (4) is designed to be movable relative to a main part (3).

Abstract: A pressure reducing valve with a valve housing, with a valve carrier in the housing interior having a throughflow channel, and with a cup-shaped valve body displaceably guided from an open position into a closed position counter to a restoring force, where the valve body abuts a valve seat on the valve carrier formed as a sealing ring, closing a channel opening. The sealing ring is held in an annular groove of the valve carrier and is axially supported by the groove flanks. The groove flank which faces the valve body ends in front of the inner circumference thereof, which abuts the sealing ring when the pressure reducing valve is closed. A sealing-lip-like circumferential molded-on formation is molded on that end face of the sealing ring which faces the valve body, and this formation moves against the inner circumference of the valve body when the primary pressure on the inlet side of the valve rises.

Abstract: A valve arrangement having a main valve and having a pilot valve which is provided for controlling the main valve and which is inserted into a pilot valve receptacle in an insertion direction, wherein, through closure of the pilot valve, a pressure is able to be built up within a pressure chamber which is closed off by a diaphragm, whereby a valve seat between a main valve inlet and a main valve outlet is able to be closed off. By opening the pilot valve, it is possible to set a release of pressure within the pressure chamber by water flowing away via an inflow, connected to the pressure chamber, of the pilot valve receptacle and via a pilot valve inlet, adjoining the latter and formed by a main body of the pilot valve. A pilot valve outlet, formed by the main body, and via an outflow, adjoining said pilot valve outlet, into the main valve outlet, opens into the main valve outlet on the outflow side of the diaphragm.

Abstract: A sanitary valve (1) having a movable diaphragm (4) of a main valve (3) that is actuable using a push-push mechanism (8) which defines at least three discrete switching positions of the main valve (3) controlled via a pilot valve (6), and/or a flowrate regulator (34), preferably adjustable by the push-push mechanism (8), arranged permanently downstream from the main valve (3).

Abstract: In a support part (1), it is provided that a liquid outlet (9) is to be laid with a connection line (12) in a line guide (11) within the support part (1), wherein the liquid outlet (9) opens outwards at a lower side (5) of the support part (1).

Abstract: A method for removing a jet regulator from a fixture outlet, a jet regulator and to a set consisting of a jet regulator and a tool are provided, wherein the jet regulator has a housing and a latching element mounted movably on the housing. The latching element is adjustable by a force transmission from a spring element, which is arranged inside a cutout of the housing and is accessible from outside the fixture outlet, to the latching element. The latching element, in its rest position, protrudes over the housing in order to hold the jet regulator in the fixture outlet. A tool for removal purposes is inserted in an insertion direction into the fixture outlet, and the spring element is acted upon with the tool during the insertion operation until the latching element releases the jet regulator.

Abstract: In the case of a sanitary outlet unit (1, 10), it is therefore provided to form throughflow channels (4) in a jet former (3) in such a manner that an outflow direction (14) predetermined by each throughflow channel (4) is oriented in a manner tilted in relation to a longitudinal housing axis (12) in two planes perpendicular to each other and/or about two directions perpendicular to each other.

Abstract: A sanitary fixture (1) is provided having a diffuser (3) arranged behind a functional unit (2) and an annular chamber (24) arranged behind the diffuser (3), an area of an opening cross-section of an outlet opening (9) of the diffuser (3) is at most 10% greater than an area of an opening cross-section of an inlet opening (5, 5?) of the diffuser (3) and/or the annular chamber (24) with a contour, which in a longitudinal section of the fixture (1), follows an ellipse (26, 28) having the smallest possible eccentricity.

Abstract: To improve the switching characteristics of a sanitary switchover valve (1) it is suggested that a valve piston (6) of the switchover valve (1) is designed in such a way that a fluid which flows in through a valve inlet (3) of the switchover valve (1) into a valve body (2) of the switchover valve (1), both in a first switching position (7) and in a second switching position (8) can flow around a connecting element (12), which forms a middle section of the valve piston (6), on all sides. To this end, it is envisaged that an outer diameter (15) of the connecting element (12) is smaller than an outer diameter (17) of a second end section (14) of the valve piston (6), where the second end section (14) is arranged in the region of a second valve outlet (5) of the valve body 2.

Abstract: A sanitary unit (1, 116, 118) is provided which has a sleeve-shaped outlet mouthpiece (2), which (2) can be installed on a water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting and has a sleeve interior, into which is inserted a sanitary functional unit (5) with at least one functional element (5), which (5) has a component (6), which (6) can be adjusted between at least two functional positions, by an externally accessible handle, via a transmission element (9) which is guided in an axially displaceable manner in the functional element (5). The handle is configured in the form of an actuating element (7) which is retained in a displaceable manner on the outer circumference of a sub-region, forming part of the outlet mouthpiece (2), which projects beyond the water outlet of the outlet fitting, and the actuating element (7), which serves as a handle has a water-jet-permeable or water-jet-guiding outlet structure (8) held on it that connects the actuating element (7) to the transmission element (9).

Abstract: A flow rate regulator s provided that decouples regions (7) of a regulating body (2) of a flow rate regulator (1) such that one of the decoupled regions (7) forms a low-pressure region (9) while another of the decoupled regions (7) defines a high-pressure region (8).

Abstract: A device (1) for cleaning for example a single or multi-bladed wet razor head. The device includes a housing (2) which has a water through-flow opening (20) that can be mounted on an outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting. At least one mechanism (21) is arranged inside the housing (2) of the device (1) and is designed to generate at least one pulsating water jet and/or to increase the flow speed of the mains water exiting the outlet of the tap, and adjoins the water through-flow opening. The mains water is delivered to the mechanism (21) via several of the flow-cross sections of the channels (22a, 22b, 22c) defining the mains water exiting the outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting, this mechanism (21) being designed as a rotational valve which includes several blades (multi-bladed) which are arranged close to each other on a common axis (23) below at least one of the channels (22a, 22b, 22c), with blades guiding the mains water to the water outlet (24).
