Drain arrangement

A drain arrangement for connection to a sanitary item, comprising:

• a drain valve housing which has a first channel section with an inlet opening, has a second channel section with an outlet opening, and has a valve seat situated between the inlet opening and the outlet opening;
• a valve body which is movable from the valve seat from a closed position into an open position;
• an actuating unit by way of which the valve body is movable;
• and
• an outflow pipe into which the second channel section opens by way of the outlet opening thereof,
• wherein a first central axis extends centrally through the first channel section, and an outflow pipe central axis extends centrally through the outflow pipe,
• wherein the outflow pipe central axis intersects the first central axis, or wherein the outflow pipe central axis is at a distance from the first central axis,
• wherein the distance corresponds at most to half the diameter of the outlet opening,
• wherein the actuating unit has an actuating lever, which acts on the valve body, and an actuator element for actuating the actuating lever, and
• wherein the actuator element, at least over a section, extends laterally alongside the outflow pipe,
• wherein the drain arrangement furthermore comprises an overflow unit, which has a first connecting pipe, an overflow pipe and a second connecting pipe,
• wherein the first connecting pipe is led, from an upper mouth opening, out of the first channel section from above the valve seat and opens into the overflow pipe, which, in an installation position, extends upwards substantially counter to a plumb-line direction,
• wherein the overflow pipe opens, below the first connecting pipe, into the second connecting pipe, which opens, below the valve seat, into the first channel section, and/or the second channel section, via a lower mouth opening, and
• wherein both the outlet opening and the mouth opening are arranged at the outflow housing laterally with respect to the outflow valve housing, in such a way that, as seen in the installation position, the outflow pipe and the connecting pipes extend substantially next to one other.
