Abstract:
An assembly is provided for the prevention of scalding in showers and other such installations. The assembly includes a valve assembly within a mixed water supply line and a temperature sensitive element for controlling the operation of the valve assembly. The valve assembly is preferably designed to allow some leakage when in the closed position.
Abstract:
A sanitary mixing unit (1), in particular for wall installation, has a thermostatic device with a thermostatic element (16), and an excess travel spring (40) and a return spring (41) which act on the thermostatic element (16). A a sanitary mixing unit which is of simple and economical construction and with a low installation depth may be provided by the excess travel spring (40) and the return spring (41) acting on the thermostatic element (16) in the same direction, such that, in the case of excess travel, the spring forces of the excess travel spring (40) and the return spring (41) are additive.

Abstract:
A sanitary mixing unit (1), in particular for wall installation, has a cartridge (6) with an outer housing (12), a flow adjustment device, a temperature adjustment device and a thermostatic device, in which the flow adjustment device has a fixed valve disc (13) and a rotatable valve disc (14) which co-acts with the fixed valve disc. A sanitary mixing unit which is of simple and economical construction and in which a functional matching of the inlet connections for hot and cold water can be matched to the locations of the hot and cold water supplies is provided by an inner housing (15), which can be coaxially rotated relative to the outer housing (15) having the thermostat device arranged in it, the rotatable valve disc (14) being fixed to the inner housing (15) and the fixed valve disc being fixed to the outer housing (12).

Abstract:
The invention relates to a flow controlling arrangement having at least one valve (3, 12) with a valve box (14) and with an adjustable valve gate (15) which is located in the valve box (14), the valve box (14) having a supply (16) and at least one discharge (17, 18), the at least one valve (3, 12) varying the water flow amount supplied from the discharge (17, 18) to a bathing vessel (1), especially a bathtub or a whirlpool, or to a fitting (11). In order to make provide a flow controlling arrangement which has an expanded scope of application for the user, there is an actuator (29) which is connected to the valve gate (15) for resetting the valve gate (15) and a control (9) connected to the actuator (29) which triggers the actuator (29) depending on a tune chosen by the user or according to a preset actuating pulse pattern for setting the valve gate (15). Thus, according to the setting of the valve gate (15), a regular or irregular change of the water flow amount through the discharge (17, 18) arises.
Abstract:
A passage choke in particular for the outlet of a plumbing fixture which is installed between the end (9) of the outlet (5) and an aerator (6) or a flow controller, which is provided with a through-flow opening (8) which advantageously has to enlarge it a knockout (12).
Abstract:
A shower partition of the type which is attached to a wall and which can be swiveled as well as swung open and closed, between a rest position and an open position in which the shower partition forms an enclosed shower stall in conjunction with the wall to which it is attached. The shower partition includes a pair of separate subunits, each of which includes a plurality of segments which are hinged with one another. A first end of each subunit is attached to the wall in spaced apart relationship with respect to the first end of the other subunit, and opposite, second ends of the subunits abut one another, when opened, to form the shower stall. When the subunits are opened to form the shower stall, the inner segments are able to fold outward to the rest position while the outer segments are able to fold inward into the rest position but are blocked from folding further outward. Locking elements are attached on the longitudinal edges of the outer segments which engage with one another when the subunits are opened to form the shower stall and which are disengageable from one another only by inwardly directed folding of the outer segments.
Abstract:
This invention concerns a sanitary water valve having a valve assembly, which includes a cylinder having a bore extending longitudinally therethrough and at least one water inlet orifice and a water outlet orifice formed in the cylinder wall; and a slot or opening, extending longitudinally over the length of the cylinder wall. The at least one water inlet orifice and water outlet orifice are formed on the cylinder and positioned the same longitudinal distance from one end thereof. A piston is positioned in the cylinder bore and is rotatably and longitudinally shiftable therein, the piston including a water mixing chamber in the form of a transverse slot or water passage, which is arranged and constructed to connect with at least one water inlet orifice and the water outlet orifice.
Abstract:
An electrically operated fitting with a fitting body that has a valve arrangement and an electrically operated drive arrangement for operating the valve arrangement. In order to produce an electrically operated fitting which is of simple and economic construction while having an attractive aesthetic design, a housing is provided for mounting purposes, in particular, for sealing abutment with an installation wall. Disposed on the housing is an actuating arrangement for an electronic unit for controlling the drive arrangement.
