## Abstract

A device for conveying water between first and second water supplying elements has a first hollow water conveying member connectable to the first water supplying element and a second hollow water conveying member connectable to the second water supplying element and with the first water conveying members are turnable relative to one another and about a turning axis, and the first water conveying member has a first opening for water entry and the second water conveying member has a second opening for water exit, and the openings extend transversely to the turning axis and are coaxial with each other.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A device for conveying water from a first water supplying element to a second water supplying element, comprising a first hollow water conveying member which is hollow and connectable to the first water supplying element in water communication therewith; and a second hollow water conveying member which is hollow and connectable to the second water supplying element in water communication therewith, wherein said first and said second water conveying members are turnable relative to one another about a turning axis between a plurality of angular positions relative to one another so that said first water supplying element and the second water supplying element are locateable in a plurality of positions relative to one another; and wherein said first water conveying member has a first opening for water entry and said second water conveying member has a second opening for water exit, and said first opening and said second opening of said first and second water conveying members extend transversely to said turning axis and are coaxial with each other so that the water supplying elements connected by the device are also coaxial with each other, wherein said first water conveying member has a first surface extending perpendicular to said turning axis and said second water conveying member has a second surface extending perpendicular to said turning axis; and fixing means which fix said first water conveying member and said second water conveying member with one another, with said first surface of said first water conveying member being in a surface-to-surface contact with said second surface of said second water conveying member, wherein said fixing means include a first fixing element associated with said first water conveying member and a second fixing element interacting with said first fixing element to fix said first and second water conveying members in a desired angular position relative to one another, wherein one of said fixing elements is a threaded bolt while the other of said fixing element is a threaded nut screwable on said threaded bolt; and sealing means which water-tightly seal components of the device relative to one another, wherein said sealing means include a first seal associated with said threaded bolt, a second seal located between said first and second water conveying members, and a third seal associated with said nut, and wherein said first, second, and third seals are coaxial with each other and with said turning axis.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water from a first water supplying element to a second water supplying element as defined in claim 1, wherein said first and said second water conveying members are provided with first and second connecting means for connecting said first water conveying members to the first water supplying element and said second water conveying member to the second water supplying element.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

A device for conveying water from the first water supplying element and the second water supplying element as defined in claim 2, wherein said connecting means include a first connecting structure provided on one of said water conveying members, and a second connecting structure provided in the other of said water conveying members, and wherein said first and second connecting structures are coaxial with said first and second openings of said first and second water conveying members.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

A device for conveying water from a first water supplying element to the second water supplying element as defined in claim 3, wherein said first connecting structure is an inner thread, and said second connecting structure is an outer thread, provided correspondingly on said first water conveying member and in said second water conveying member.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water from a first water supplying element to the second water supplying as defined in claim 1, wherein one of said water conveying members has a portion with a concave surface, while the other of said water conveying members has a portion with a corresponding convex surface, so that when said conveying members turnabout said pivot axis said convex surface moves along said concave surface in correspondence therewith.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water from a first water supplying element to a second water supplying element as defined in claim 1, wherein said first water conveying member has a first channel extending from said first opening parallel to and offset from said first axis and a first hole extending from said first channel coaxially with said turning axis, while said second water conveying member has a second channel extending from said second opening parallel to and offset from said second axis and a second hole extending from said second channel and communicating with said first hole, so that water can flow successively from the first water supplying element through said first opening, said first channel, said first hole of said first water conveying member, and then through said second hole, said second channel and said second opening of said second water conveying member into the second water supplying element.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

A device for conveying water from a first water supplying element to a second water supplying element as defined in claim 6, wherein said first channel and said second channel of said first and second water conveying members extend parallel to one another and in a direction which is perpendicular to said turning axis, and wherein said first hole and said second hole of said first and second water conveying members are coaxial with one another and with said turning axis and form together a joint throughgoing hole for a flow of water.

### Claim 8

(canceled)

### Claim 9

(canceled)

### Claim 10

(canceled)

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water between a first water supplying element and a second water supplying element as defined in claim 1, wherein said first seal, said second seal and said third seal extend transversely to said turning axis, and are compressed when said fixing elements are connected with one another and said fixing means are tightened and fix said first water conveying member and said second water conveying member in said desired angular position relative to one another.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water between a first water supplying element and a second water supplying element as defined in claim 1, wherein said first and said second fixing elements of said fixing means are coaxial with said first seal, said second seal, and said third seal of said sealing means.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water between a first water supplying element and a second water supplying element as defined in claim 1, wherein said first and second fixing elements are configured so that they perform multiple functions including holding said first and said second water conveying members together, locking said first and second water conveying members in corresponding angular positions relative to one another, and pressing said seals toward one another and toward components of the device for a leak-free operation.

### Claim 14

(canceled)

### Claim 15 (depends on 1)

A device for conveying water between a first water supplying element and a second water supplying element as defined in claim 1, wherein said first seal is arranged on a head of said threaded bolt inserted in said first water conveying member, surrounds said head of said threaded bolt, and is located radially between said head of said threaded bolt and said first water conveying element.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

A device for conveying water between a first water supplying element and a second water supplying element as defined in claim 15, wherein said third seal is arranged on a portion of said threaded nut inserted in said second water conveying member, surrounds said portion of said threaded nut and is located radially between said portion of said threaded nut and said second water conveying member.
