Publication number: 20240158218Abstract: In order to simplify the creation of fluidic outflows in the widest possible range of application situations, a fluidic outflow unit (1) is provided in which fluid flows from various sources (3) are guided via respective flexible connection elements (6) to different discharge elements (4) and/or different flow control elements (5) of the outflow element (1). The use of the flexible connection elements (6) ensures that the outflow unit (1) can be arranged in different installation spaces (14) inside an item of furniture (13) or a sanitary object, in such a way that the installation space (14) itself does not need to form a water duct.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2022Publication date: May 16, 2024Applicant: Neoperl GmbHInventors: Fabian WILDFANG, Christoph WEIS

Patent number: 10704711Abstract: A hose line and a method for producing the same. The hose line (1) has a hose connection (3) which has a connection piece having a connection nipple. A hose end of a flexible hose (2) is pushed onto the connection nipple. The hose connection (3) also has a crimp sleeve (6) which immovably clamps the hose end between itself and the connection nipple in the longitudinal direction of the nipple. There are at least two tool contact surfaces on the hose connection (3), arranged on opposite sides of the hose connection (3), preferably allocated to each other in pairs and in particular designed as wrench contact surfaces (7). The at least two tool contact surfaces of the hose connection (3), which are allocated to each other in pairs, are on the crimp sleeve (6). A ratio of a length of the crimp sleeve (6) to an outside diameter of the flexible hose is 1.5:1 to 3:1.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2019Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: Neoperl GmbHInventor: Fabian Wildfang

Patent number: 10006574Abstract: The invention relates to a hose coupling (5) for connecting a flexible hose line (3) to an adjacent line section (6). The hose coupling (5) according to the invention has a coupling housing (7), which coupling housing (7) has at least two coupling openings (8, 9), into each of which a respective coupling mating piece (10, 11) can be inserted and releasably fixed, which coupling mating pieces (10, 11) are designed as line ends of a line section, and of which at least one coupling mating piece is provided as the line end of a flexible hose line (3), wherein the coupling openings (8, 9) in the coupling housing (7) are connected to each other.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2014Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: Neoperl GmbHInventor: Fabian Wildfang

Patent number: 9562348Abstract: Sanitary throughflow element (1, 2, 30) which includes a throughflow rate regulator unit (5) having a carrier part (6) extending over the open cross section of a fluid line portion, the carrier part (6) having at least two inter-spaced insert openings (7) in which, respectively, a throughflow rate regulator (8) is arranged. Each throughflow rate regulator (8) has an elastic throttle body (9) which is round on the outer circumferential side in cross section and which delimits a control gap (10) between itself and a circumferential wall defining the insert opening (7). The throttle bodies (9) of the throughflow rate regulator (8) are compressed in the throughflow direction due to pressure of the through-flowing fluid such that this compression causes a circumferential widening of the throttle bodies (9) that constricts the control gap (10) determining a throughflow capacity of the throughflow rate regulator (8).Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2011Date of Patent: February 7, 2017Assignee: NEOPERL GMBHInventors: Michael Sochtig, Fabian Wildfang
