Abstract
A diversion device (1), in particular for a sanitary fitting (100), including a housing (2) which forms a valve body space (23) with at least one inlet opening (3) and at least two outlet openings (4, 5). A valve body (6) is guided in an adjustable manner within the valve body space (23) and can be used to divert a flow path (7, 8) between the at least two outlet openings (4, 5), the valve body (6) can be adjusted by an adjustment mechanism (9), the adjustment mechanism (9) is operatively connected to an operating element configured as a push-button (10), and an operative connection can be established between the adjustment mechanism and the push-button.
Claims19
A diversion apparatus (1), comprising:
- a housing (2) having at least one inlet opening (3) and at least two outlet openings (4, 5);
- a valve body (6) configured to divert a throughflow path (7, 8) between the at least two outlet openings (4, 5);
- an adjustment mechanism (9) configured to adjust the valve body (6), the adjustment mechanism (9) is operationally connected or connectable to an operating element comprising a push-button (10);
- the valve body (6) separates a first throughflow chamber (14) from a second throughflow chamber (15) and wherein at least one of a) the first throughflow chamber and the second throughflow chamber (14, 15) are limited by the valve body (6) in an adjustment direction thereof by impact surfaces (24, 25, 26, 27) substantially of a same size or b) the one of the first or second throughflow chambers (15) at that end of the valve body (6) which is remote from the push-button (10) is limited by the valve body (6) in the adjustment direction thereof by the impact surfaces (26, 27) having substantially of the same size;
- and
- a return element (11) is arranged between the push-button (10) and the housing (2) and is supported on the push-button (10) and on the housing (2).
A series of diversion apparatuses (1), comprising at least one monostable variant, which forms a monostable diversion apparatus (1), and at least one bistable variant which forms a bistable diversion apparatus (1), and the monostable variant and the bistable variant define a uniform mechanical interface (19) for a receiving sanitary fitting (100).
A series of diversion apparatuses (1), comprising at least one long variant which forms a monostable diversion apparatus (1), and at least one short variant which forms a monostable diversion apparatus (1), wherein the long variant and the short variant define a uniform mechanical interface (19) for a receiving sanitary fitting (100) and, in the long variant, a portion which protrudes over the interface (19) is larger than in the short variant.
