Shower attachment
View Patent ↗The invention relates to a shower attachment which comprises a first part (T 1 ) which comprises a water guiding channel ( 2 ), and a second part (T 2 ) which comprises at least one first and one second outlet opening (A 1 , A 2 ) which can be selectively connected to the water guiding channel ( 2 ) by means of a valve (V). Said valve (V) is embodied by areas (BI, B 2 ) of the two parts (TI, T 2 ), which are connected to each other in a manner such that they can be displaced and are arranged in the inside of the second part (T 2 ). The valve (V) can be changed by displacing at least one part (T 2 ), and the both known areas (B 1 , B 2 ) are connected together in such a manner that they can pivot. The first part (T 1 ) comprises a pivotable axis ( 24 ) and at least one outlet opening ( 7 ) which is arranged at a distance therefrom. The second part (T 2 ) comprises, optionally, at least two inlet openings which are arranged at a distance in relation to said pivotable axis ( 24 ).
1. A spray attachment comprising a first part, which is to be connected to a water conduit and has a water guiding channel, and comprising a second part, which has at least a first and a second outlet opening, which can be selectively connected to the water guiding channel of the first part by means of a valve, wherein the first part engages in the second part and
wherein the valve is arranged inside the second part, the valve being able to be switched over by a pivoting movement of the second part with respect to the first part, and
wherein the first part forms a pivot spindle for the pivoting of the second part and has at least one exit opening at a distance from said spindle, and
wherein the second part has at least two entry openings, likewise at a distance from this pivot spindle.
2. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first part has one exit openings, which is connected to the water guiding channel, and wherein the second part has two entry openings, which are able to be connected to said one exit opening of the first part.
3. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the valve has a valve part with at least one exit opening and wherein the second part has a valve part with at least one entry opening and wherein the two valve parts are displaceable or pivotable with respect to each other.
4. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 3 , wherein said at least one entry opening of the valve has sealing means.
5. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second part has an opening in which a front end of the first part engages.
6. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the valve is arranged inside said opening of the second part.
7. A spray attachment comprising a first part, which is to be connected to a water conduit and has a water guiding channel, and comprising a second part, which has at least a first and a second outlet opening, which can be selectively connected to the water guiding channel of the first part by means of a valve, wherein the first part engages in the second part and wherein the valve is arranged inside the second part, the valve being able to be switched over by a movement of the second part with respect to the first part, wherein for switching over the valve, the second part is pivoted about a spindle, which runs substantially perpendiculary in relation to the direction of flow of the water in the water guiding channel.
8. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein for switching over the valve, the second part is pivoted by an angle that is less than 90°.
9. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second part forms a spray head and wherein the valve can be switched over by movement of the spray head.
10. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said movement is a tipping movement.
11. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the first part has one exit opening, which is connected to the water guiding channel, and wherein the second part has two entry openings, which are able to be connected to said one exit opening of the first part.
12. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the valve has a valve part with at least one exit opening and wherein the second part has a valve part with at least one entry opening and wherein the two valve parts are displaceable or pivotable with respect to each other.
13. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 12 , wherein said at least one entry opening of the valve has sealing means.
14. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the second part has an opening in which a front end of the first part engages.
15. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the valve is arranged inside said opening of the second part.
16. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein for switching over the valve, the second part is pivoted by an angle that is less than 90°.
17. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the second part forms a spray head and wherein the valve can be switched over by movement of the spray head.
18. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein said movement is a tipping movement.
19. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first part has two exit openings, which are connected to the water guiding channel, and wherein the second part has four entry openings, which are able to be connected to said two exit openings of the first part.
20. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the second part is pivoted by an angle that is less than 45°.
21. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 20 , wherein the second part is pivoted by an angle that is approximately 30°.
22. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the second part is pivoted by an angle that is less than 45°.
23. The spray attachment as claimed in claim 22 , wherein the second part is pivoted by an angle that is approximately 30°.
