Faucet stream straightener

A sanitary insert unit () is provided having an insert housing () which can be mounted on or in a water outlet () of a sanitary outlet fitting and in the housing interior of which there is provided a liquid path that channels water flowing through the housing interior. A jet splitter () with a plurality of splitter openings () is provided in the liquid path, and the splitter openings divide the through-flowing water into a plurality of individual jets. At least one grid or mesh structure () follow the jet splitter () in the liquid path, and at least one bypass duct () which bypasses the liquid path at least in certain portions is provided. The bypass duct () is formed as a nozzle for generating at least one accelerated liquid jet, and for this purpose, the at least one bypass duct () has a tapering clear duct cross section at least in a sub-portion.

Sanitary insert unit

A sanitary outlet fitting () having a fitting body (), the body interior of which opens into a water outlet (), with an intermediate holder () which () is fastenable in the water outlet (), and with a sanitary insert () which is insertable into the end side of the intermediate holder (), the end side being of open design and being on the outflow side, and is fixable therein. The outlet fitting has, on the inflow side, the intermediate holder () connected or connectable to a water hose guided in the tube interior () of the fitting body ().

Sanitary outlet fitting

In a sanitary outlet unit (), it is provided that a contact surface () is formed on a valve element () which is adjustable between an open position and a closed position in a flow path (), which contact surface (), in the open position, covers a corresponding, stationary counterpart surface () and, in the closed position, frees said counterpart surface (), such that the valve element () is automatically held in the open position by the pressure in the flow path and returns to the closed position in the event of a pressure drop (cf. FIG.).

Sanitary outlet unit

A sanitary unit () is provided which has a sleeve-shaped outlet mouthpiece (), which () can be installed on a water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting and has a sleeve interior, into which is inserted a sanitary functional unit () with at least one functional element (), which () has a component (), which () can be adjusted between at least two functional positions, by an externally accessible handle, via a transmission element () which is guided in an axially displaceable manner in the functional element (). The handle is configured in the form of an actuating element () which is retained in a displaceable manner on the outer circumference of a sub-region, forming part of the outlet mouthpiece (), which projects beyond the water outlet of the outlet fitting, and the actuating element (), which serves as a handle has a water-jet-permeable or water-jet-guiding outlet structure () held on it that connects the actuating element () to the transmission element ().

Sanitary unit

The invention relates to an intermediate holder () which on the external circumference thereof has at least one holding means () for fastening the intermediate holder () in a water outlet () of a sanitary outlet fitting (), and on the internal circumference thereof at least one fastening means () for releasably fastening a sanitary functional unit (). One approach to a solution according to the invention provides that the intermediate holder () is manufactured from one material strip and the holding means and fastening means () of said intermediate holder () are configured as formed lugs of the material strip that at the one lug end of said lugs by way of a bent region are connected to the material strip and that by way of the opposite other free lug end of said lugs protrude beyond the circumference of the material strip.

Intermediate holder

A sanitary fixture having a connector assembly which includes an adapter piece is provided for connection to a single-lever mixing cartridge. A pivotable connector piece having a hose connector is pivotably mounted between the base plate and the adapter piece. The base plate includes receptacles for a cold-water hose end piece and a warm-water end piece. The connector piece has an inner duct which, at a first end, opens out to the connector assembly and, at a second end, opens out to the hose connector. The connector piece is connected via a plug-in connection to a connector-piece receptacle of the adapter piece. The connector-piece receptacle opens out into a connection duct of a first type, which extends in the adapter piece crosswise to a connection duct of a second type in the adapter piece.

Sanitary fixture, inner-hose arrangement for a sanitary fitting, and sanitary fitting

In the case of a sanitary fixture with a jet and/or flow regulator unit, it is proposed forming, on the inlet opening on the inflow side, a tube receptacle to which a connecting tube can be connected with a push fit. A fastening means with which the connecting tube, which is connected with a push fit, can be fastened in, and can be released from, the tube receptacle is arranged on a basic body forming the tube receptacle.

Jet regulator with a tube receptacle

In the case of a sanitary fixture (), it is provided that at least one covering surface (), by way of which at least one flow opening () of a flow element () is openable and at least partially closable in a temperature-dependent manner, is formed on a covering element () made of a temperature-sensitive material (cf. FIG.).

Sanitary fixture

An atomizer nozzle () for a sanitary water outlet, which atomizer nozzle () is intended for atomizing water under pressure. The characterizing feature of the atomizer nozzle () according to the invention is that the atomizer nozzle () has a swirl chamber (), in which at least one feed channel () that is oriented transversely in relation to the longitudinal axis of the nozzle and runs approximately tangentially into the swirl chamber () opens out, wherein the swirl chamber () tapers in the outflow direction, in the direction of a nozzle channel (). The atomizer nozzle () can be used to produce a water jet of a homogeneous jet pattern that gives the impression of a voluminous water jet in spite of having a low volumetric flow.

A sanitary fixture () having a connector assembly () for the connection to a single-lever mixing cartridge () including a pivotable connector piece () having a hose connector () on a base plate (). The base plate () includes receptacles () for a cold-water hose end piece () and a warm-water end piece ().
