  • Patent number: 11332914
    Abstract: A washstand arrangement with a fountain jet water discharge device. More particularly, a washstand device includes a washstand having a wash-bowl sink and a water discharge device, configured for discharging water in the form of a fountain jet composed of individual jets and comprising a plurality of water discharge nozzles which are arranged in the wash-bowl sink for discharging the individual jets in associated individual jet directions from the wash-bowl sink obliquely upwards and back again to the wash-bowl sink. The water discharge nozzles are arranged within a strip-type nozzle assignment region having a strip length extending in sink circumferential direction and a strip height perpendicular thereto, wherein its strip length is greater than its strip height, and its strip length extends at most across half the sink circumference.
