Abstract
A sanitary outlet device (1, 2) including a housing (3) which has a fitting receptacle (6) with a thread (7) at an inflow end of a flow path (11). A mating thread (8) of a fitting outlet (12) can be screwed together with the thread (7). An outflow-side end of the thread (7) is equipped with a seal (9) by which the flow path (11) of the water flowing through a flow channel of the sanitary outlet device (1, 2) can be sealed outwards at a transition between a screwed-in fixture outlet (12) and the housing (3). The seal (9) forms an inner surface (10), which can be wetted by water flowing in the flow path (11) and which is free of rubber, at the transition.
Claims14
A sanitary outlet device (1, 2), comprising a housing (3) having a flow path (11) therethrough, a fitting receptacle (6) at an inflow end of the flow path (11), the fitting receptacle (6) having a thread (7) that is adapted to be screwed together with a counterpart thread (8) of a fitting outlet (12), a seal formed on the inflow side of the housing, the seal (9) is formed such that the flow path (11) is able to be sealed off from outside at a transition from the screwed-in fitting outlet (12) to the housing (3), the seal (9) forms, at the transition, an inner face (10) that is adapted to be wettable by flowing water in the flow path (11), the inner face (10) is formed in a rubber-free manner, the seal (9) has a protrusion (13) that extends in an encircling manner in the fitting receptacle (6) and forms the rubber-free inner face (10) which is rubber-free on a side facing the flow path (11), the protrusion (13) is integrally formed on the housing (3) and is connected thereto in one piece, the protrusion (13) delimits a groove (15), extending in an encircling manner in the fitting receptacle (6), with respect to the flow path (11), the groove (15) is open counter to a screwing direction (20) defined by the thread (7), the protrusion (13) has a contact face oriented counter to the screwing direction (20) and forms a stop for the screwed-in fitting outlet, a rubber ring (16) is located in the groove (15), at least one of the rubber ring (16) protrudes from the groove (15) in an unloaded state, counter to a screwing direction (20), or the groove (15) is formed less deeply than is necessary to fully receive the rubber ring (16), and the groove (15) is dimensioned such that the rubber ring (16) is receivable without sticking out in a compressed state.
