Abstract

The bowl (18) of a urinal is detachably fastened with threaded bolts (20) to a building wall (19). After detaching the bowl (18), it can be swung away from the building wall (19) by a limited amount by a pivoting device (26, 27, 28) for maintenance of control devices (23) and fittings (21). The drain socket (24) is connected to the drain elbow (17) by a flexible line (12). In the use position of the urinal, a partially flexible siphon trap (12) is wound such that it forms a drain siphon. When the bowl (18) is swung away from the building wall (19), the flexible line (12) is stretched, and it is not necessary to detach the connection between the socket (24) and the drain elbow (17). The present invention permits simple maintenance of devices and fittings arranged covered behind the bowl (18).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Ablaufanschluss nach dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1. Ein Ablaufanschluss dieser Art ist im Stand der Technik durch die GB-A- 2 178 654 bekannt.The invention relates to a drain connection according to the preamble of independent claim 1. A drain connection of this type is known in the prior art from GB-A-2 178 654.

Weiter ist durch die CH-A-666 504 der Anmelderin ein Siphon an einem Urinal bekannt geworden, der mit einem horizontal verlaufenden Verbindungsrohr mit der Ablaufleitung verbunden ist. Damit zur Reinigung und Wartung des Urinals die Schüssel nicht von der Wand gelöst werden muss, ist der Siphon mit einem lösbaren Verbindungsstück an den Ablaufstutzen der Schüssel angeschlossen.Furthermore, a siphon on a urinal is known from the applicant's CH-A-666 504, which is connected to the drain line with a horizontally extending connecting pipe. So that the bowl does not have to be detached from the wall for cleaning and maintenance of the urinal, the siphon is connected to the bowl outlet with a detachable connector.

Besitzt ein solches Urinal hinter dem Becken weitere Armaturen und Geräte, beispielsweise eine Anwesenheitssteuerung, so muss dennoch ein solches Becken regelmässig für Wartungsarbeiten von der Wand gelöst werden.If such a urinal has other fittings and devices behind the basin, for example a presence control, such a basin must still be regularly removed from the wall for maintenance work.

Um solches Wartungs- oder Reparaturarbeiten problemloser durchführen zu können, ist durch die EP-A-0 313 734 ein wandhängendes Urinal bekanntgeworden, das ein zweiteiliges Becken aufweist. Ein Beckenoberteil ist fest mit der Wand und ein Unterteil lösbar mit dem Oberteil verbunden. Zur Wartung der hinter dem Becken angeordneten Armaturen und Geräte wird der Unterteil entfernt. Ein zweiteiliges Becken ist jedoch aus verschiedenen Gründen in der Regel nicht gewünscht.In order to be able to carry out such maintenance or repair work more easily, EP-A-0 313 734 has disclosed a wall-hung urinal which has a two-part basin. An upper part of the pool is fixed to the wall and a lower part is detachably connected to the upper part. The lower part is removed to maintain the fittings and devices behind the basin. However, a two-part basin is usually not desired for various reasons.

Ferner sind durch die DE-C-58 677 und die WO-A-8 800 993 Anschlüsse für Sanitärartikel bekannt geworden, die als Faltenbalg, als flexibles Rohr oder als telekopischer Auszug ausgebildet sind und in bestimmtem Masse ein Verschwenken des Sanitärartikels zulassen. Diese Anschlüsse sind für übliche wandhängende Urinale in der Regel nicht geeignet und gewährleisten nicht in jedem Fall eine zuverlässige Siphonwirkung.Furthermore, DE-C-58 677 and WO-A-8 800 993 have disclosed connections for sanitary articles which are designed as bellows, as a flexible pipe or as a telescopic extension and allow the sanitary article to pivot to a certain extent. These connections are generally not suitable for standard wall-hung urinals and do not always guarantee a reliable siphon effect.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Ablaufanschluss der genannten Gattung zu schaffen, der insbesondere auch für ein Urinal geeignet ist und der ein Wegrücken des Sanitärartikels von der Gebäudewand zur Wartung der hinter dem Sanitärartikel angeordneten Armaturen und Geräte erläubt.The invention has for its object to provide a drain connection of the type mentioned, which is particularly suitable for a urinal and which explains the moving away of the sanitary ware from the building wall for maintenance of the fittings and devices arranged behind the sanitary ware.

Die Aufgabe ist durch die Erfindung gemäss Anspruch 1 gelöst.The object is achieved by the invention according to claim 1.

Der erfindungsgemässe Ablaufanschluss erlaubt ein vollständiges Wegrücken des Sanitärartikels von der Gebäudewand, ohne dass vorgängig zwischen dem Ablaufstutzen des Beckens und der Ablaufleitung ein Teil gelöst werden müsste. Die Erfindung ermöglicht somit die Montage eines einteiligen Sanitärartikels, der zur Wartung der hinter diesem angeordneten Geräte und Armaturen sehr einfach von der Gebäudewand weggerückt oder weggeklappt werden kann. Der Sanitärartikel kann somit ohne vorhergehendes Lösen des Siphons von der Gebäudewand weggeklappt werden und die dahinter angeordneten Armaturen und Geräte sind von der Seite und von oben sehr gut zugänglich. Der Sanitärartikel kann hierbei einteilig aus Sanitärkeramik hergestellt werden und auch sein Unterbereich kann wie üblich, d.h. vergleichsweise schlank ausgebildet sein.The drain connection according to the invention allows the sanitary article to be completely moved away from the building wall without a part having to be loosened beforehand between the drain connector of the basin and the drain pipe. The invention thus enables the assembly of a one-piece sanitary article, which can be moved or folded away very easily from the building wall for maintenance of the devices and fittings arranged behind it. The sanitary article can thus be folded away from the building wall without first loosening the siphon and the fittings and devices arranged behind it are easily accessible from the side and from above. The sanitary article can be made in one piece from sanitary ware and its sub-area can also be made as usual, i.e. comparatively slim.

Beim Wegrücken des Sanitärartikels wird der Siphon im Bereich seiner Biegungen gestreckt. Wird das Becken nach der Wartung an die Gebäudewand zurückgeschoben, so geht der Siphon von selbst in den ursprünglichen Zustand zurück. Dies ist besonders platzsparend und kostengünstig.When the sanitary article is moved away, the siphon is stretched in the area of its bends. If the basin is pushed back onto the building wall after maintenance, the siphon automatically returns to its original state. This is particularly space-saving and inexpensive.

Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung und den Zeichungen. Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnungen näher erläutert.Further advantageous features result from the following description and the drawings. An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawings.

Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1a ein vertikaler Schnitt durch ein an einer Gebäudewand befestigtes Urinal, mit einem erfindungsgemässen Anschluss,
  • Fig. 1b ein Urinal gemäss Fig. 1a, wobei das Becken von der Gebäudewand weggerückt ist, und
  • Fig. 1c ein Schnitt durch einen Teil der Fig. 1a, in vergrösserter Darstellung.
Show it:
  • 1a is a vertical section through a urinal attached to a building wall, with a connection according to the invention,
  • Fig. 1b, a urinal according to Fig. 1a, wherein the pool has moved away from the building wall, and
  • Fig. 1c shows a section through part of Fig. 1a, in an enlarged view.

Die gezeigte Ausführung weist ein Becken aus beispielsweise Sanitärkeramik auf, das einen verdeckten Spüleinlass 25 und einen Ablaufstutzen 24 besitzt. Mit wandfesten Bolzen 20 und hier nicht gezeigten Muttern ist das Becken 18 lösbar an einem Wandkasten 23 oder direkt an der Gebäudewand befestigt. Für die Bolzen 20 weist das Becken 18 hier nicht gezeigte entsprechende Löcher auf. Diese Art der Befestigung eines Urinalbeckens an einer Gebäudewand ist bekannt. Am Wandkasten 23 sind ein Eckventil 21, ein Magnetventil 31 sowie eine Spülsteuerung 22 angeordnet, wobei diese vollständig vom Becken 18 abgedeckt sind. Diese Teile sind allseitig abgedeckt und somit weitgehend vandalensicher geschützt.The embodiment shown has a basin made of, for example, sanitary ceramics, which has a concealed rinsing inlet 25 and an outlet connection 24. The basin 18 is detachably fastened to a wall box 23 or directly to the wall of the building with bolts 20 fixed to the wall and nuts (not shown here). For the bolts 20, the basin 18 has corresponding holes, not shown here. This type of attachment of a urinal basin to a building wall is known. A corner valve 21, a solenoid valve 31 and a flushing control 22 are arranged on the wall box 23, these being completely covered by the basin 18. These parts are covered on all sides and thus largely protected against vandalism.

Mit zwei parallelen Verbindungsstangen 27, die gelenkig an einem am Becken 18 angebrachten Träger 26 und an einem wandfesten Träger 28 schwenkbar gelagert sind, kann das Becken 18 von der Gebäudewand 19 in die in Fig. 1b gezeigte Lage weggeklappt werden. Die Steuerung 22 und die Armatur 21 ist bei weggeklapptem Becken 18 seitlich, von oben und auch von unten zur Wartung gut zugänglich. Um das Becken 18 von der Gebäudewand 19 wegklappen zu können, muss das Becken 18 lediglich von den Bolzen 20 gelöst werden. Nach der Wartung wird das Becken 18 wieder an die Gebäudewand 19 zurückgeklappt und mit den Bolzen 20 und hier nicht gezeigten Muttern, oder einer anderen geigneten Befestigungsvorrichtung, fixiert.With two parallel connecting rods 27, which are pivotably mounted on a support 26 attached to the basin 18 and on a wall-fixed support 28, the basin 18 can be removed from the building wall 19 can be folded away into the position shown in FIG. 1b. The controller 22 and the valve 21 are easily accessible for maintenance when the pool 18 is folded away from the side, from above and also from below. In order to be able to fold the basin 18 away from the building wall 19, the basin 18 only has to be released from the bolts 20. After maintenance, the basin 18 is folded back onto the building wall 19 and fixed with the bolts 20 and nuts, not shown here, or another suitable fastening device.

Der Stutzen 24 führt bei der Ausführung nach den Fig. 1a und 1b über einen Siphon 12 zu einem Ablaufrohr 17 einer Ablaufleitung. Der Siphon 12 ist dicht mit dem Stutzen 24 und dem Ablaufbogen 17 verbunden. In der in Fig. 1a gezeigten Gebrauchsstellung weist der Siphon 12 drei elastisch streckbare Biegungen 2, 3 und 4 auf. Zwischen den Biegungen 2, 3 und 4 sind gerade und vergleichsweise formstabile Bereiche 32-35 angeordnet. Der Siphon 12 befindet sich in Gebrauchsstellung in einer vertikalen Ebene. Wird das Becken 18 von der Gebäudewand weggeklappt, so wird der Siphon 12 gestreckt und nimmt den in Fig. 1b gezeigten Verlauf an. Die beiden Enden des Siphons 12 sind weiterhin dicht mit dem Stutzen 24 und dem Ablaufbogen 17 verbunden. Die Wartung der hinter dem Becken 18 angeordneten Geräte und Armaturen ist somit möglich, ohne dass der Siphon 12 entfernt und entleert werden muss. Wesentlich ist auch, dass für den Siphon 12 unterhalb und hinter dem Stutzen 24 in der Gebrauchslage vergleichsweise wenig Stauraum benötigt wird. Die Biegungen 2, 3 und 4 weisen jeweils mehrere vergleichsweise dünnwandige Wülste 2a, 3a bzw. 4a auf, zwischen denen Bereiche 2b, 3b bzw. 4b mit grösserer Wandstärke angeordnet sind. Beim Strecken wird der Siphon 12 vorwiegend im Bereich der Wülste 2a, 3a und 4a defomiert. Der Siphon 12 ist aus einem elastomeren Kunststoff, vorzugsweise aus EPDM, hergestellt. Er wird nach dem Formen vorzugsweise vernetzt, um eine hohe Beständigkeit zu erreichen.The connector 24 leads in the embodiment according to FIGS. 1a and 1b via a siphon 12 to a drain pipe 17 of a drain pipe. The siphon 12 is tightly connected to the nozzle 24 and the drain bend 17. In the use position shown in Fig. 1a, the siphon 12 has three elastically stretchable bends 2, 3 and 4. Between the bends 2, 3 and 4 straight and comparatively dimensionally stable areas 32-35 are arranged. The siphon 12 is in the use position in a vertical plane. If the basin 18 is folded away from the building wall, the siphon 12 is stretched and assumes the course shown in FIG. 1b. The two ends of the siphon 12 are still tightly connected to the nozzle 24 and the drain bend 17. The maintenance of the devices and fittings arranged behind the basin 18 is thus possible without the siphon 12 having to be removed and emptied. It is also essential that comparatively little storage space is required for the siphon 12 below and behind the nozzle 24 in the position of use. The bends 2, 3 and 4 each have several comparatively thin-walled beads 2a, 3a and 4a, between which areas 2b, 3b and 4b are arranged with greater wall thickness. When stretching, the siphon 12 is mainly deformed in the area of the beads 2a, 3a and 4a. The siphon 12 is made of an elastomeric plastic, preferably EPDM. After molding, it is preferably crosslinked in order to achieve high durability.

Der erfindungsgemässe Anschluss eignet sich auch für andere Sanitärartikel, beispielsweise Waschbecken oder wandhängende WC-Schüsseln, die zur Wartung von der Gebäudewand wegrückbar sind.The connection according to the invention is also suitable for other sanitary articles, for example wash basins or wall-hung toilet bowls, which can be moved away from the building wall for maintenance.
