Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary shower with a shower head according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the shower head can have a keypad, with the showering process in any way different shower spray types are applicable to each other and / or separately.
  • the shower head has at least two keypads exhibiting keypad.
  • the feeler elements are, with the interposition of a feeler mechanism in operative connection with valves in the shower head. With manual pressure actuation of these feeler elements a shower spray type is adjustable.
  • Each of the sensing elements is spring-biased to a closed position in which a flow path in the showerhead is closed.
  • the respective probe element is pressed over a first stroke in an open position in which the flow path is open and in which a molded on the pressed probe element latching contour is in releasable latching engagement with a mating contour of an adjustable control slide.
  • the control slide can be adjusted to release this locking engagement in an unlocking position in which the Tastelement-locking contour and the control slide counter contour are disengaged.
  • the already-pressed feeler element can be overridden starting from its depressed closed position over a second stroke to a release position.
  • a control surface of the probe element pushes the control slide in the above-mentioned unlocking position.
  • all scanning elements are reset from their open position to their closed position.
  • sensing element of the control carriage is moved back from its unlocked position in the direction of its locking position. This ensures that the pressed into the release position probe element is still held in the open position in latching engagement with the control slide and - in contrast to the other probe elements - does not return to the closed position (ie initial position).
  • the shower faucet is opened so always a jet of water exiting the shower head, whereby the non-pressure-resistant shower hose is not excessively pressure-loaded.
  • the key element detent contour may be an elastically resilient detent arm, which is integrally formed on the probe element and has a locking cam at its free end.
  • the control slide When pressing the probe element from the closed position to the open position (ie at a first stroke of the probe element) the control slide remains stationary in the direction of adjustment, that is unchanged, in its locking position and only the Tastelement-latching arm under elastic deformation with the Steuerschlitten- Counter contour brought into detent action. Only to release this latching engagement (that is, in a second stroke of the probe element), the control slide is moved in the direction of adjustment in an unlocking position in which the Tastelement-catch contour and the control slide counter-contour are disengaged.
  • the latching arm on the one hand must be designed sufficiently rigid component to ensure a safe latching engagement in the open position of the probe element (that is, after the first stroke).
  • the locking arm must also be sufficient be elastically yielding, so that the latching engagement when overpressing the probe element in the release position (that is, the second stroke) is easily solvable.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a sanitary shower with a shower head, in which the sensing elements are reliably and comfortably operated.
  • the invention is based on the problem that in the above DE 10 2011 017 434 A1 the control slide is displaced both when pressing the probe element in the open position and the further over-pressing of the probe element in the release position in each case via a travel.
  • a displacement of the control slide in the direction of adjustment is associated with correspondingly large actuation forces, which the user has to apply to the feeler elements.
  • the control slide remains stationary when pressing the feeler element into the open position, that is to say unchanged, in its locking position and the control slide is moved into an unlocking position only for releasing the locking engagement of the pressed-in feeler element.
  • the characterizing part of claim 1 in the unlocking the Tastelement-catch contour and the control slide counter contour viewed in the direction of the control slide offset by a length offset to each other so that the locking engagement between the Tastelement-catch contour and the control slide counter contour solved is.
  • the unlocking position are therefore the probe element locking contour and the control slide counter contour, viewed in the direction of adjustment, offset by a free distance from each other.
  • the mating contour can be adjusted from a latching position elastically yielding in a triggering position.
  • the component-rigid base body and the elastically resilient mating contour can be made of the same material and / or in one piece. Alternatively, the component-rigid base body and the mating contour can also be made in two parts.
  • the control slide counter contour In a sensing operation from the closed to the open position, the control slide counter contour can come under elastic deformation with the component-rigid probe locking contour in latching engagement.
  • the detent contour cooperating therewith can be formed component-rigidly on the respective probe element.
  • the stroke of the probe element is divided into a first stroke between its closed position and its open position and in a subsequent second stroke from its open position to a release position.
  • the release position is therefore achieved starting from the open position by an overpressing operation during the pressure actuation of the feeler element.
  • a control surface of the probe element presses on a corresponding control surface of the control slide, whereby this is pressed the unlocking position.
  • the feeler reaches over the first stroke in latching engagement with the control slide counter contour, while the control slide otherwise remains unchanged in its unlocked position. Only when contacting the control surfaces of the probe element and the control slide (that is, over the second stroke) is moved by stroke adjustment of the probe element in the release position of the control slide coupled in its unlocked position.
  • control slide counter contour In the unlocking position of the control slide the control slide counter contour is unchanged in its rest position, that is, it is not adjusted elastically yielding in the release position. In this way, can be accomplished with reduced compared to the prior art manually applied pressure force of the tripping operation.
  • the at least first and second probe element preferably act together on actuation of the first probe element as follows.
  • the second probe element can be pressed into its release position.
  • the control slide In the release position, due to the movement couplings set out above, the control slide is moved into the unlocking position, in which a latching engagement between the latching contours of the first / second feeler elements and the corresponding control slide counter contours is achieved.
  • the first probe element readily jumps back into its initial position, that is to say into the closed position.
  • the control slide from its unlocked position that is, back into the locking position
  • led out led out.
  • the second feeler element does not spring back into its closed position, but rather remains in latching engagement with the control slide countercontour (that is, in the open position).
  • control slide counter contours provided for each probe element are connected to a common, are preferably formed integrally formed, spring-mounted locking element.
  • a shower head of a sanitary shower has at its top a keypad 1 with four buttons 2 to 5, with the help of different spray types are arbitrarily applicable to each other and / or separately.
  • the buttons 2 to 5 of the keypad 1 are with the interposition of a described with reference to the following figures tactile mechanism 7 in operative connection with control valves, not shown, with the help flow paths in the shower head to adjust the Brausestrahlart be opened or closed.
  • buttons 2 to 5 are manually pressure-actuated, wherein the sensing mechanism 7 is designed so that always one of the buttons 2 to 5 is held in its open position O, to avoid excessive pressurization of the per se not pressure-resistant executed shower hose 9.
  • the sensing mechanism 7 is designed so that always one of the buttons 2 to 5 is held in its open position O, to avoid excessive pressurization of the per se not pressure-resistant executed shower hose 9.
  • one of the buttons is suppressed to a release position F described later. In the release position F jump - with the exception of the manually depressed button - the other buttons back to the starting position, ie in the closed position G back.
  • the manually depressed in the release position F button remains in contrast when returning in its open position O, to avoid the aforementioned water pressure load of the shower hose 9.
  • buttons 2 to 5 is on, in the Fig. 1 only dashed lines indicated probe element 11, 12, 13, 14 of the feeler mechanism 7 is inserted, which transmits the manual pressure actuation via a shaft 17 to a control valve, not shown, in the shower head.
  • the sensing elements 11 to 14 are each stroke-adjustable in a vertical direction z.
  • the feeler elements 11 to 14 are arranged in pairs laterally outside of a height-adjustable control slide 19 in a depth direction y.
  • the control carriage 19 is in a starting position ( Fig. 3 ) in the depth direction y by means of a return spring 21 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) in a locking position V biased.
  • the control carriage 19 is from its locking position V against the return spring 21 via the travel ⁇ y in its unlocked position E ( Fig. 3 , indicated by dashed lines) shifted.
  • the control slide 19 is also designed in two parts, with a component-rigid, upper base body 23 and a resiliently mounted therein locking element 25th
  • the sensing elements 11 to 14 are by means of the valve assembly via a in the Fig. 2 and 3 shown restoring force F R spring-biased in the upward direction.

Das in the Fig. 2 On the other hand, feeler element 11 shown on the left is shown in its depressed open position O. In the closed position G of the feeler element 12 is a locking contour 27, that is, a retaining cam of the probe element 12, above a corresponding thereto control slide counter contour 31, that is, a locking cam.
