Abstract: The invention relates to a sanitary outflow fitting, especially a single-lever mixer (1), comprising, in a manner known per se, a housing (2) provided with at least one admission (5, 6) for water, and one outlet (49). A control cartridge (26) is located inside (10) the fitting housing (2), the manually operable control lever (34) of said cartridge controlling the flow of water through the outflow fitting (1). The aim of the invention is to be able to use a conventional control cartridge (26) with the admission and outflow openings thereof located on the lower side, even when the outflow (49) is in the upper or uppermost region of the outflow fitting (1). To this end, the control cartridge (26) is arranged inside a receiving insert (14). Water arriving towards the control cartridge (26) and leaving the same flows through said receiving insert (14).

Abstract: A guide ring of a sanitary spout fitting having a swivelling spout which can be fitted swivellably on a fitting body via a swivelling sleeve which forms part of the swivelling spout, has material projections on both cylindrical faces. Through these material projections the guide ring is in contact both with the inner cylindrical surface of the swivelling sleeve and with the outer cylindrical surface of the fitting body. The guide ring thus ensures good radial guidance of the swivelling sleeve of the swivelling spout on the fitting body. Because the guide ring can rotate with respect both to the swivelling sleeve and to the fitting body in the new state, the smooth running of the swivelling spout is preserved even if one of these rotation possibilities is obstructed.

Through these material projections the guide ring is in contact both with the inner cylindrical surface of the swivelling sleeve and with the outer cylindrical surface of the fitting body. The guide ring thus ensures good radial guidance of the swivelling sleeve of the swivelling spout on the fitting body. Because of the material projections the contact faces between the guide ring, the swivelling sleeve surrounding same and the fitting body are small, whereby only small frictional forces can arise when swivelling the swivelling spout around the fitting body.
