Abstract

An arrangement ( 1 ), in particular an outflow arrangement, which is intended for cleaning for example a wet-shaver head having one or more blades, the arrangement having a housing ( 2 ) which can be fitted on a water outlet of a sanitary outflow fitting via a water-throughflow opening ( 20 ). The water-throughflow opening ( 20 ) is followed by at least one channel ( 22 ), which directs water to at least one device ( 21 ) which is arranged within the housing ( 2 ) of the arrangement ( 1 ) and is designed to generate a pulsating water jet and/or to increase the flow speed of the mains water exiting from the outlet of the faucet. The device ( 21 ) receives the mains water via the channel ( 22 ) and passes it on, at mains pressure, to a water outlet ( 23 ). The arrangement includes at least one water outlet ( 25 ) connected to at least one further channel ( 24 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A water outflow arrangement ( 1 ), comprising:
 a housing with a water-throughflow opening that is fittable on a water outlet of a sanitary outflow fitting via the water-throughflow opening ( 20 ),   a channel ( 22 ) that follows the water-throughflow opening in a flow direction, the channel ( 22 ) directs water to at least one device ( 21 ) arranged within the housing ( 2 ),   the at least one device ( 21 ) is configured to generate at least one pulsating water jet of mains water exiting from the water outlet of the faucet,   the at least one device ( 21 ) receives the mains water via the channel ( 22 ) and passes it on, at mains pressure, to a first water outlet ( 23 ), and   at least one second water outlet ( 25 ) connected to a further channel ( 24 ) in the housing.   
     
     
         2 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising at least one of a valve ( 26 ), a shut-off member ( 26 ) or a deflecting member ( 26 ), by which the mains water is directed either into the channel ( 22 ) or into the further channel ( 24 ). 
     
     
         3 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the first and second water outlets ( 23 ,  25 ) are arranged within a plurality of housing parts or housing chambers ( 2   a,    2   b ) of the housing, and at least one said housing part or at least one said housing chamber ( 2   a,    2   b ) is arranged in a rotatable or tiltable manner on the housing ( 2 ). 
     
     
         4 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the housing parts or housing chambers ( 2   a,    2   b ) each have at least one water inlet ( 200   a,    200   b ), the at least one of the valve ( 26 ), the shut-off member ( 26 ) or the deflecting member ( 26 ) is configured such that rotation or tilting of one or more housing parts or housing chambers ( 2   a,    2   b ) causes the at least one of the valve ( 26 ), the shut-off member ( 26 ) or the deflecting member ( 26 ) to prevent a throughflow of the mains water at one of the water inlets ( 200   a,    200   b ). 
     
     
         5 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein there are two of the water inlets ( 200   a,    200   b ) are arranged in a rotatable manner at a cylindrical water-throughflow opening ( 20 ) or on a housing part ( 2   c ), which encloses the water-throughflow opening ( 20 ), and the at least one of the valve ( 26 ), the shut-off member ( 26 ) or the deflecting member ( 26 ) is arranged in a fixed manner within the water-throughflow opening ( 20 ) in order to prevent throughflow into one of the two water inlets ( 200   a,    200   b ). 
     
     
         6 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the at least one of the valve ( 26 ), the shut-off member ( 26 ) or the deflecting member ( 26 ) is actuatable manually from outside the housing ( 2 ). 
     
     
         7 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein an opening ( 201 ) on which to arrange an aerated jet regulator or jet aerator is provided on one said housing part or on one said housing chamber ( 2   a ). 
     
     
         8 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a splash guard ( 3 ) on the water outlet ( 23 ), the splash guard ( 3 ) is formed from vertically oriented, flexible and elastic ribs ( 30 ) formed in a comb-shaped arrangement. 
     
     
         9 . The arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a maintenance opening ( 202 ), that is closeable by a closure ( 27 ) on a housing part or on a housing chamber ( 2   b ). 
     
     
         10 . A method for cleaning a razor, comprising:
 providing the arrangement ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , and   directing the mains water from the first water outlet of the arrangement ( 1 ) onto a wet-shaver head having one or more blades.
