Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention refer to a mixer group for bathroom or kitchen comprising a hollow cylinder, a tubular body that forms a seat for the sliding of the hollow cylinder and comprises an axial inlet and at least one radial outlet for the water, and an electric motor for actuating the hollow cylinder. The mixer group comprises a lid for the end opposite the inlet of the tubular body, defining an extension of the sliding seat, and an annular gasket between the tubular body and the lid, comprising an elastically deformable tab that projects into the extension of the seat, in open flow conditions, or is deformed against the hollow cylinder, to close the flow, when the hollow cylinder engages with the extension.
Claims20
A mixer group for bathroom or kitchen, comprising:
- a hollow cylinder;
- a tubular body that forms a sliding seat of the hollow cylinder, the tubular body including an axial inlet and at least one radial outlet for the water;
- an electric motor configured for actuating the hollow cylinder;
- a lid for an end opposite the axial inlet of the tubular body, defining an extension of the sliding seat;
- a single-body having opposite seats configured for fixing the lid and the tubular body, and a water outlet in fluid communication with the at least one radial outlet;
- and
- an annular gasket between the tubular body and the lid, the annular gasket comprising an elastically deformable tab that projects in an extension of the sliding seat, in open flow conditions;
- or is deformed against the hollow cylinder, to close the flow, when the hollow cylinder engages with the extension.
A mixer group comprising:
- a hollow cylinder;
- a tubular body that forms a sliding seat of the hollow cylinder, the tubular body including an axial inlet and at least one radial outlet for the water;
- a first electric motor configured for actuating the hollow cylinder;
- a lid for an end opposite the inlet of the tubular body, defining an extension of the sliding seat;
- an annular gasket between the tubular body and the lid, the annular gasket comprising an elastically deformable tab that projects in the extension, in open flow conditions, or is deformed against the hollow cylinder, to close the flow, when the hollow cylinder engages with the extension;
- a second electric motor configured for actuating a second hollow cylinder, slidable in a second tubular body, the first and second electric motors being suitable for the adjustment, respectively, of cold and hot water entering respective axial inlets, flowing into a mixing chamber of the mixer, in fluid communication with the radial outlets of the tubular bodies;
- and
- a substantially boxed body made from insulating material, the substantially boxed body including:
- the first and second electric motors;
- a face having respective openings for the inlets;
- an opposite face and a respective double bottom between which an electronic card is situated configured for driving the first and second electric motors;
- a lateral face equipped with a respective opening for a water outlet in fluid communication with the at least one radial outlet;
- and
- a removable cover giving access to a hydraulically insulated seat which receives a power supply for the electronic card and the first and second electric motors.
