Mixing battery cartridge with an inclined plane disc guide

Abstract

A cartridge used for valve batteries that serve for mixing cold water and warm water, said cartridge having two discs arranged one above the other, namely, a lower inlet disc and an upper regulating disc wherein said discs together form a sealing plane. A driving arm insuring the planar movement of the regulating disc is allowed to be rotated around a fastening pin placed in a lever holder. The driving arm is in driving connection with a ceramic moving element which, in turn, is in driving connection with said regulating disc, and the surfaces of said ceramic moving element, preferably a first ceramic moving surface and a second ceramic moving surface. The surfaces of said ceramic moving element are guided by means of guiding surfaces, preferably a first guiding surface and a second guiding surface, both formed in the lever holder, in a manner that the angle between the direction of movement of the ceramic moving element and the rotation axis of the driving arm differs from 90°.
