Abstract
A mixing device, for showers or baths, contains a mixing fitting to which hot and cold water may be fed and which comprises an element for adjusting the mixing ratio. The mixing device is to be developed so that, although the design thereof is simple, a preparation may be added to the mixed water. To this end there is provided an electronic control-unit and an input-unit which, for the purpose of actuating a storage-unit comprises at least one container for the accommodation of the preparation. Also, there is provided a supply device, preferably in the form of a pump, by means of which, upon actuating the input unit, the preparation may be released from the dispenser through lines, more particularly flexible tubes.
