  • Patent number: 11486118
    Abstract: A drain arrangement for a washstand, comprising a connection unit having a connecting branch for connection to a drain branch of a washstand, an overflow unit connecting to the connection unit and having a valve and an overflow pipe, which bridges the valve, and a siphon unit connecting to the overflow unit and having a siphon element. The connecting branch, seen in the installation position, runs in a first direction, which is oriented at an angle inclined at less than 30° tilting downwards to a mounting plane running in the vertical of the washstand. The overflow unit lies offset to the side of the connecting branch in such a manner that the overflow pipe extends upwards to the side adjacent to the connecting branch and the siphon unit lies beneath the overflow unit.

  • Patent number: 11441300
    Abstract: A drain assembly for connection to a sanitary-appliance, comprising: a drain pipe having a pipe inlet and a pipe outlet and a valve arranged in a valve section of the drain pipe having a sealing face and a valve body, wherein the valve body can be moved away from the sealing face from a closed to an open position by an actuating element. Also included is an overflow pipe, which extends away from the drain tube from a first branch lying upstream of the valve seen in the direction of flow of the water to a second branch lying downstream of the valve seen in the direction of flow and thereby bridges the valve. The valve body is at least partially mounted on an insert element; the drain pipe has an insert receptacle; and the insert element can be inserted into the insert receptacle on the drain pipe.
