Abstract
A water fitting for dispensing water in a sanitary device, comprising a fitting member which is placed on this sanitary device, and a device which is arranged on the fitting member for actuating a cartridge, the cartridge containing a cold and a hot water supply flow, devices for opening and closing the supply flows and for limiting and mixing the water streams and a mixed water outlet.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 - 14 . (canceled)
15 . A water fitting for dispensing water in a sanitary device, comprising a fitting member which is placed on this sanitary device and a device which is arranged on the fitting member for actuating a cartridge, the cartridge being provided with a hot water supply flow and a cold water supply flow, devices for opening and closing the supply flows and optionally for mixing the water streams in the cartridge and a closable mixed water outlet from the cartridge, which is connected to the outlet in the fitting member of the sanitary device, wherein the cartridge is spatially separated from the fitting member on the sanitary device by the sanitary device and between the device for actuating the cartridge and the cartridge there is a direct mechanical connection, or wherein the cartridge is electromotively actuated, and the device for electromotively actuating the cartridge is connected to devices for controlling the rotation direction and the speed of the respective motor which is provided for opening and closing the supply flows and the mixed water outlet and for mixing the water streams and for controlling the quantity of water discharged.
16 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein the cartridge is surrounded by a housing and wherein this housing is connected to the sanitary device or the fitting member.
17 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein the cartridge is secured to the sanitary device or the fitting member by means of a connecting portion.
18 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein the cartridge is surrounded by a housing and wherein this housing is secured to the sanitary device or the fitting member by means of a connecting portion.
19 . A water fitting according to claim 17 , wherein the connecting portion is secured to the base of the fitting member extending through the sanitary device.
20 . A water fitting according to claim 17 , wherein the connecting portion extends through the sanitary device and wherein the fitting member is secured to the connecting portion.
21 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein, from the device for actuating the cartridge, the actuation lever or the actuation handle on the fitting member of the water fitting is connected to the adjustment lever for actuating the cartridge by means of a coupling device.
22 . A water fitting according to claim 21 , wherein the actuation lever on the fitting member of the water fitting is connected to a rod which extends through the sanitary device and by means of which its tilting movements can be converted into upward and downward movements, wherein the rod is connected to the coupling device by means of a connection and wherein the coupling device is a rod gear for converting the upward and downward movements of the rod into pivoting movements of the adjustment lever of the cartridge.
23 . A water fitting according to claim 21 , wherein the actuation lever on the fitting member of the water fitting is connected to a rod which extends through the sanitary device to which its upward and downward movements can be transmitted, wherein the rod is connected to the coupling device by means of a connection and wherein the coupling device is a rod gear for converting the upward and downward movements of the rod into pivot movements of the adjustment lever of the cartridge.
24 . A water fitting according to claim 21 , wherein the coupling device is a flexible shaft by means of which the actuation handle is connected to the adjustment lever of the cartridge.
25 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein the coupling device is surrounded by a cover.
26 . A water fitting according to claim 25 , wherein a lever of the coupling device extends out of the cover and the connection to the rod is arranged outside the cover.
27 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein the housing of the cartridge is provided with the connections of the hot water supply flow and the cold water supply flow and the mixed water outlet of the cartridge.
28 . A water fitting according to claim 15 , wherein the fitting member has an outlet and wherein this outlet is connected to the mixed water outlet of the cartridge by a pipe.
29 . A water fitting according to claim 18 , wherein the connecting portion is secured to the base of the fitting member extending through the sanitary device.
30 . A water fitting according to claim 18 , wherein the connecting portion extends through the sanitary device and wherein the fitting member is secured to the connecting portion.
31 . A water fitting for dispensing water in a sanitary device, comprising a fitting member which is placed on this sanitary device and a device which is arranged on the fitting member for actuating a cartridge, the cartridge being provided with a hot water supply flow and a cold water supply flow, devices for opening and closing the supply flows and optionally for mixing the water streams in the cartridge and a closable mixed water outlet from the cartridge, which is connected to the outlet in the fitting member of the sanitary device, wherein the cartridge is spatially separated from the fitting member on the sanitary device by the sanitary device and between the device for actuating the cartridge and the cartridge there is a direct mechanical connection.
32 . A water fitting for dispensing water in a sanitary device, comprising a fitting member which is placed on this sanitary device and a device which is arranged on the fitting member for electromotively actuating a cartridge, the cartridge being provided with a hot water supply flow and a cold water supply flow, devices for opening and closing the supply flows and optionally for mixing the hot and cold water streams in the cartridge and a closable mixed water outlet from the cartridge, which is connected to the outlet in the fitting member of the sanitary device, and the device for electromotively actuating the cartridge is connected to the devices for controlling the rotation direction and the speed of a respective motor which is provided for opening and closing the supply hot water supply flow and the cold water supply flow and the mixed water outlet and for mixing the hot water stream and the cold water stream and for controlling the quantity of water discharged.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
