Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a switching device for a sanitary fitting, with an inlet and at least two outlets that can each be brought into fluid connection with the inlet, as well as a shower which comprises such a switching device.
  • a shower with a switching device is off, for example CN 204 544 502 U known, wherein the switching device comprises a rotatably mounted valve element which, in different rotational positions, releases a fluid connection between an inlet and a respective group of outlet openings and blocks the fluid connection to other outlet openings.
  • operation of an actuating element must therefore be converted into a rotary movement of the valve element.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to specify a switching device for a sanitary fitting which is based on a different actuating mechanism.
  • the object is achieved by a switching device with the features of the independent claim and by a shower with a switching device according to the invention.
  • Advantageous developments of the switching device are given in the dependent claims and in the description, individual features of the advantageous developments can be combined with one another in a technologically sensible manner.
  • the object is achieved in particular by a switching device for a sanitary fitting according to Claims 1 and 2.
  • the invention thus provides in particular that the linearly movably mounted closing elements can each be moved between their closed position and open position in that an elevation of the switching element moves the respective closing element against its bias.
  • the arrangement of the elevation on the switching element and the arrangement of the switching element on the switching device can therefore specify in which switching positions certain outlets are connected to the inlet and in which they are not. In each switching position, one outlet or several outlets can be connected to the inlet.
  • the switching device preferably has more than two outlets.
  • the switching device preferably has exactly three or four outlets.
  • the closing elements are preferably in their closed positions when they are in their pretensioned position and out of contact with an elevation. However, it can also be provided that at least one closing element is in the closed position when it is in contact with an elevation and in a position displaced against the bias.
  • the closing elements in particular have a closing area which, in the closed position, blocks a flow opening between the inlet and the corresponding outlet.
  • the extension protrudes from this closing area and is in contact with an elevation in at least one switching position of the switching element.
  • the closing elements are preferably all mounted in a linearly movable manner parallel to one another.
  • the closing elements therefore all have the same closing direction.
  • the in particular precisely one switching element is preferably rotatably, pivotably or linearly movably supported.
  • the switching element can in particular be brought into such a number of different switching positions that corresponds to the number of outlets, so that the fluid connection from the inlet to precisely one outlet is preferably released in each switching position.
  • further switching positions can be provided so that the fluid connection to two or more outlets is released in at least one of these further switching positions.
  • the switching element has exactly one protruding elevation.
  • a number of elevations corresponding to the number of outlets is formed on the switching element.
  • openings of the outlets are arranged in an outlet plane and all closing elements are arranged so as to be linearly movable in a closing plane, the outlet plane and the closing plane being arranged offset parallel to one another.
  • the closing elements are arranged transversely to a flow direction in which the fluid exits through the openings of the outlets. In this way, a particularly flat design of the switching device can be achieved.
  • one outlet channel leads from an inlet chamber assigned to the inlet to each outlet, one being formed in the transition area between inlet chamber and outlet channel
  • Closing element seat is closed by the respective closing element in its closed position.
  • the closure elements are each passed with their extensions through the respective outlet channel and are led out of the outlet channel in a seal at the end of the outlet channel. From the common inlet chamber, therefore, several outlet channels go to the outlets, the closing element seat being released in the open position of the respective closing element.
  • the closing element seat thus laterally limits a flow into the outlet channel. In the closed position, a closing area of the closing element is pressed onto the closing element seat in such a way that the flow cross section delimited by the closing element seat is closed.
  • a preload can be generated with suitable means, it is preferred that the preload is generated by means of a spring which preloads the closing element in the direction of the closing element seat.
  • the inlet chamber and the outlet channels are preferably formed in a one-piece housing body which is closed on the one hand by a housing cover, which thus in particular delimits the inlet chamber or the outlet channels, and on which the switching element is movably mounted on the other hand.
  • the springs are supported on the housing cover.
  • a shower with a shower head and a jet disk which has at least two separately controllable groups of outlet openings, as well as with a switching device according to the invention for switching between the two groups of outlet openings, with each outlet of the switching device having a group of outlet openings assigned.
  • a switching device according to the invention for switching between the two groups of outlet openings, with each outlet of the switching device having a group of outlet openings assigned.
  • Switching device 1 shown comprises a housing base body 15 and one in the Figures 1 and 2 Housing cover 16, not shown.
  • a switching element 4 is mounted so as to be linearly displaceable on the housing base body 15. How out Figure 4 As can be seen, the switching element 4 has three elevations 8 projecting in the direction of the housing base body 15.
  • the housing base body 15 has an inlet 2 and three outlets 3, the openings 9 of the outlets 3 being arranged in a plane which is orthogonal to a plane of the inlet opening of the inlet 2.
  • three outlet channels 11 are formed in the housing base body 15, each of which leads to an outlet 3 lead.
  • the switching device 1 also comprises a closing element 5 for each outlet 3.
  • each closing element 5 is mounted in the switching device 1 so as to be linearly movable.
  • Each closing element 5 has a closing area 21 and an extension 7 extending from the closing area 21 through a respective passage channel 11. The extension 7 emerges at the end of the outlet channel 11 through a seal 13 through the housing base body 15 in the direction of the switching element 4.
  • Each closing element 5 is also linearly guided in the housing cover 16 and is pretensioned with respect to the cover 16 by means of a spring 14. The closing elements 5 are therefore mounted so as to be linearly movable in a closing direction 6.
  • the closing elements 5 are each biased into their closed position by means of the springs 14.
  • Closing elements 5 arranged on the left and right are in their closed position, in which the closing area 21 presses the sealing element 22 onto the respective closing element seat 12. In this closed position, the fluid connection from the inlet 2 to the respective outlet 3 is blocked. It can be seen that the closing elements 5 arranged on the left and right in the FIG Figure 4 The switching position shown with its extensions 7 are not in contact with one of the elevations 8 of the switching element 4.
  • the switching device 1 is used in particular in a shower 17, which is shown in FIG Figure 5 is shown.
  • the shower 17 has a jet disk 20 with several groups of outlet openings 19.
  • Each group of outlet openings 19 is connected to an outlet 3 of the switching device 1 via a respective connecting channel 18.
  • a group of the outlet openings 19 is brought into fluid connection with the water supply connected to the inlet 2 of the switching device 1.
