Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anschlußvorrichtung für eine Warm- und Kaltwassermischarmatur mit den im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen. Eine derartige Anschlußvorrichtung ist aus der DE-A-23 24 023 bekannt. Zur Anpassung der Vorstehlänge der Mischarmatur aus der Gebäudewand ist bei der bekannten Anschlußvorrichtung vorgesehen, daß Zwischenstücke von unterschiedlicher Länge zwischen der Mischarmatur und dem Anschlußstück einsetzbar sind. Mit diesen Zwischenstücken ist jedoch nur eine stufenweise Veränderung der Vorstehlänge möglich.
Außerdem wird die nicht vorveröffentlichte EP-A-0309397 als Stand der Technik nach Artikel 54 (3) EPÜ genannt.The invention relates to a connection device for a hot and cold water mixer fitting with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1. Such a connection device is known from DE-A-23 24 023. In order to adapt the protruding length of the mixing valve from the building wall, it is provided in the known connecting device that intermediate pieces of different lengths can be used between the mixing valve and the connecting piece. With these intermediate pieces, however, only a gradual change in the protruding length is possible.
In addition, the unpublished EP-A-0309397 is mentioned as prior art under Article 54 (3) EPC.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebene Anschlußvorrichtung weiter zu verbessern, so daß insbesondere eine stufenlose, axiale Justierung der Anschlußverbindung ermöglicht ist.The invention has for its object to further improve the connecting device specified in the preamble of claim 1, so that in particular a stepless, axial adjustment of the connection is made possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.
Weitere Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Ansprüchen 2 bis 5 angegeben.This object is achieved with the features of claim 1.
Further refinements of the invention are specified in claims 2 to 5.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher erläutert. Es zeigt

  • Figur 1 eine Anschlußvorrichtung in Perspektivdarstellung, wobei die Einzelelemente auseinandergezogen dargestellt sind;
  • Figur 2 das in Figur 1 dargestellte Zwischenstück im Längsschnitt an einer Gebäudewand installiert;
  • Figur 3 das Zwischenstück gemäß Figur 2 in der Schnittebene III.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing and is explained in more detail below. It shows
  • 1 shows a connection device in perspective, the individual elements being shown pulled apart;
  • Figure 2 installed the intermediate piece shown in Figure 1 in longitudinal section on a building wall;
  • 3 shows the intermediate piece according to FIG. 2 in the sectional plane III.

Die in Figur 1 dargestellte Anschlußvorrichtung besteht im wesentlichen aus einem in der Gebäudewand angeordneten Anschlußstück 1 (in der Zeichnung nur zum Teil dargestellt), einem Zwischenstück 2, einer Mischarmatur 3 sowie einer Hülse 4, wobei auf dem Zwischenstück 2 oder der Hülse 4 eine Schieberosette 5 zur Abdichtung der Wandöffnung vorzusehen ist. Das Zwischenstück 2 ist dabei mit einer koaxial angeordneten Befestigungsschraube 24 an dem Anschlußstück 1 unter Zwischenlage von Dichtungen (in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt) fixierbar.The connecting device shown in Figure 1 consists essentially of a connector 1 arranged in the building wall (only partially shown in the drawing), an intermediate piece 2, a mixing valve 3 and a sleeve 4, with a sliding rosette on the intermediate piece 2 or the sleeve 4 5 is to be provided for sealing the wall opening. The intermediate piece 2 can be fixed with a coaxially arranged fastening screw 24 to the connecting piece 1 with the interposition of seals (not shown in the drawing).

Als Verdrehsicherung sind an der stromaufwärts befindlichen Stirnseite des Zwischenstücks 2 Rohrzapfen 271 ausgebildet, die in Bohrungen 11 des Anschlußstücks 1 einfassen. Die Mischarmatur 3 wird an der gegenüberliegenden Stirnseite des Zwischenstücks 2 ebenfalls unter Zwischenlage von Dichtungen mit der Hülse 4 bajonettartig befestigt. Die Zuführung von Kalt- und Warmwasser erfolgt durch die parallel nebeneinander angeordneten Bohrungen 11 vom Anschlußstück 1 über das Zwischenstück 2 in die Mischarmatur 3.To prevent rotation, 2 tubular pegs 271 are formed on the upstream end face of the intermediate piece, which engage in bores 11 of the connecting piece 1. The mixing valve 3 is fastened to the opposite end face of the intermediate piece 2 also with the interposition of seals with the sleeve 4 like a bayonet. The supply of cold and hot water takes place through the bores 11 arranged in parallel next to one another from the connection piece 1 via the intermediate piece 2 into the mixing valve 3.

Das Zwischenstück 2 besteht aus zwei Teilen, wie es insbesondere aus Figur 2 und 3 der Zeichnung zu entnehmen ist. An dem stromaufwärts gelegenen Teil sind konzentrisch zu den Bohrungen 11 Stutzen 21 ausgebildet, von deren vorderer Außenwandung jeweils ein Dichtring 211 angeordnet ist. In dem stromabwärts gelegenen Teil des Zwischenstücks 2 sind entsprechend ausgebildete Zylinderbohrungen 22 angeordnet, in denen die Stutzen 21 axial verschiebbar gedichtet gelagert sind. Konzentrisch im Zwischenstück 2 ist eine Befestigungsschraube 24 angeordnet, die durch beide Teile des Zwischenstücks 2 hindurchgreift und in eine Gewindebohrung 12 des Anschlußstücks 1 einschraubbar ist. Parallel neben der Befestigungsschraube 24, senkrecht zur Verbindungsachse der beiden Bohrungen 11 (Figur 3), ist jeweils eine Distanzschraube 23 mit Gewinde im stromabwärts gelegenen Teil des Zwischenstücks 2 angeordnet. Die Distanzschrauben 23 sind dabei in ihrer Länge so bemessen, daß sie bei voll eingeschraubter Distanzschraube 23 die maximal mögliche Verlängerung des Zwischenstücks 2 bewirken. Bei geringeren Verlängerungen stehen die Distanzschrauben 23 an der Stirnseite vor und werden beim Anschluß der Mischarmatur 3 in entsprechende Öffnungen (in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt) eingesenkt.The intermediate piece 2 consists of two parts, as can be seen in particular from Figures 2 and 3 of the drawing. On the upstream part 11 connecting pieces 21 are formed concentrically to the bores, from the front outer wall of which a sealing ring 211 is arranged. Correspondingly designed cylinder bores 22 are arranged in the downstream part of the intermediate piece 2, in which the connecting pieces 21 are mounted so as to be axially displaceably sealed. A fastening screw 24 is arranged concentrically in the intermediate piece 2, which reaches through both parts of the intermediate piece 2 and can be screwed into a threaded bore 12 of the connecting piece 1. Parallel to the fastening screw 24, perpendicular to the connecting axis of the two bores 11 (FIG. 3), a threaded spacer screw 23 is arranged in the downstream part of the intermediate piece 2. The distance screws 23 are dimensioned so that they cause the maximum possible extension of the intermediate piece 2 when the distance screw 23 is fully screwed in. In the case of smaller extensions, the spacer screws 23 protrude from the end face and are sunk into corresponding openings (not shown in the drawing) when the mixer fitting 3 is connected.

Wie aus Figur 2 zu entnehmen ist, beträgt die maximal mögliche Verlängerung bzw. Verkürzung die Strecke 26. Bei der Bestimmung der Verlängerung bzw. Verkürzung des Zwischenstücks 2 gelangen die Distanzschrauben 23 mit ihrer Spitze an einen Flansch 27 des stromaufwärts gelegenen Teils des Zwischenstücks 2, so daß die Länge stufenlos einstellbar ist. Beim Anschluß des Zwischenstücks 2 an das Anschlußstück 1 wird dann mit der Befestigungsschraube 24 diese Längenposition fixiert.As can be seen from FIG. 2, the maximum possible lengthening or shortening is the distance 26. When determining the lengthening or shortening of the intermediate piece 2, the spacer screws 23 come with their tips to a flange 27 of the upstream part of the intermediate piece 2, so that the length is continuously adjustable. When connecting the intermediate piece 2 to the connecting piece 1, this length position is then fixed with the fastening screw 24.

Die Mischarmatur 3 kann in folgender Weise an der Gebäudewand installiert werden:
Zunächst wird das zum Teil dargestellte Anschlußstück 1 in der Gebäudewand 6 installiert und mit den Anschlußrohren für Kalt- und Warmwasser verbunden. Danach, wenn die Gebäudewand verputzt und eventuell verfliest ist, wird über das Zwischenstück 2 die Hülse 4 übergestreift, wobei eine Schulter 41 an einem Bund 25 des Zwischenstücks 2 zur Anlage gelangt und das Zwischenstück 2 lose mit der Befestigungsschraube 24 an dem Anschlußstück 1 gehaltert wird. Nunmehr kann mit den Distanzschrauben 23 die Länge des Zwischenstücks 2 justiert werden. Sobald die richtige Länge eingestellt ist, kann dann mit der Befestigungsschraube 24 das Zwischenstück 2 dicht und fest mit dem Anschlußstück 1 verbunden werden. Nunmehr wird die Mischarmatur 3 gegen die vorstehende Stirnseite des Zwischenstücks 2 geführt, wobei vorher noch die Rosette 5 über die Armatur 3 übergestreift worden ist. Nunmehr kann die Hülse 4 gegen den Bund 25 des Zwischenstücks 2 gebracht werden, wobei zwei Radialzapfen 42 der Hülse 4 in entsprechende Schlitze 31 der Mischarmatur 3 einfassen und durch eine kurze Verdrehung die dichte und feste Verbindung der Mischarmatur 3 mit dem Zwischenstück 2 hergestellt wird. Danach kann die Rosette 5 auf die äußere zylindrische Mantelfläche 43 der Hülse 4 aufgeschoben werden, so daß die Öffnung in der Gebäudewand 6 zum Anschlußstück 1 dicht abgeschlossen ist. Zur dichten Anpressung an die Gebäudewand können Spannschrauben 51 vorgesehen sein.
Anstatt der Bajonettverbindung von dem Zwischenstück 2 mit der Mischarmatur 3 kann selbstverständlich auch eine Überwurfmutterverschraubung etc. eingesetzt werden.The mixer tap 3 can be installed on the building wall in the following way:
First, the connector 1 shown in part is installed in the building wall 6 and connected to the connecting pipes for cold and hot water. Then, when the building wall is plastered and possibly tiled, the sleeve 4 is slipped over the intermediate piece 2, a shoulder 41 coming to rest on a collar 25 of the intermediate piece 2 and the intermediate piece 2 being held loosely with the fastening screw 24 on the connecting piece 1 . Now the length of the intermediate piece 2 can be adjusted with the spacer screws 23. As soon as the correct length is set, the intermediate piece 2 can then be connected tightly and firmly to the connecting piece 1 with the fastening screw 24. Now the mixing valve 3 is guided against the projecting end face of the intermediate piece 2, the rosette 5 having previously been slipped over the valve 3. Now the sleeve 4 can be brought against the collar 25 of the intermediate piece 2, two radial pins 42 of the sleeve 4 encompassing corresponding slots 31 in the mixing fitting 3 and the tight and firm connection of the mixing fitting 3 with the intermediate piece 2 being produced by a brief rotation. Then the rosette 5 on the outer cylindrical Shell surface 43 of the sleeve 4 are pushed so that the opening in the building wall 6 to the connector 1 is sealed. Tensioning screws 51 can be provided for tight contact with the building wall.
Instead of the bayonet connection between the intermediate piece 2 and the mixing valve 3, a union nut screw connection etc. can of course also be used.
