  • Patent number: 5145114
    Abstract: A spray head (1) for a sink faucet (2) or the like that is suited for connection to a low-pressure storage tank (open hot water storage tank), with a water feed (4), a normal jet discharge (7) placed centrally in particular, a spray discharge (9) placed in particular surrounding normal jet discharge (7) concentrically and with a multiplicity of small spray holes (10), and a reversing valve (13) in which, in the normal position, reversing valve (13) connects normal jet discharge (7) to water feed (4) and separates spray discharge (9) from water feed (4) and, in a spray position, connects spray discharge (9) to water feed (4) and separates normal jet discharge (7) from water feed (4), is completely suited for use in connection with a low-pressure storage tank by a bypass pipe (21) that acts in the spray position being provided in reversing valve (13) between water feed (4) and normal jet discharge (7) and the flow resistance of bypass pipe (21) being greater than the flow resistance of spray discharge (9) when

  • Patent number: 5127110
    Abstract: A domestic plumbing installation of a generally simple design which is easy to manufacture, is obtained in the following manner: a connecting end of the water-conduit element is merely pushed into a connection-receiving part and includes at least one locking notch, which extends generally perpendicularly to the direction of insertion, preferably approximately tangentially, the valve housing includes at least one locking bore extending generally perpendicularly to the direction of insertion preferably approximately tangentially to the connection-receiving part and ending in the connection-receiving part. To this end the locking notch is aligned with the locking bore; a locking pin preferably a tangential pin of solder material can be inserted into the locking bore and further into the locking notch for temporary assembly, when the tangential pin is inserted the water-conduit element is permanently secured to the valve housing by causing the solder material to melt.
