Device for actuating the drainage valve of a sanitary article
The device has a housing ( 5 ) which can be fastened on the sanitary article ( 2 ) and in which is mounted a pushbutton ( 7 ) for actuating the drainage valve (A). A pulling element ( 16 ) connects the pushbutton ( 7 ) to a closure body ( 33 ) which is mounted in a displaceable manner in a housing ( 22 ) of the drainage valve (A). A changeover device ( 26 ) is mounted on the housing ( 22 ) of the drainage valve (A) and can be changed over under tension in each case for opening and closing the drainage valve (A). By virtue of the changeover device ( 26 ) being arranged on the housing ( 22 ) of the drainage valve (A), the actuating part which contains the pushbutton ( 7 ) can be designed in a more space-saving and compact manner.
1. A device for actuating a drainage valve of a sanitary article, comprising:
a housing fastenable to the sanitary article and in which is mounted a pushbutton for actuating the drainage valve, said pushbutton being moveable from an actuation position by pushing inwards against the button to effect actuation of the drainage valve and being automatically moved back to the actuation position following actuation of the drainage valve,
a changeover device, and
a pulling element, which connects the pushbutton to a closure body which is mounted in a displaceable manner in a valve housing of the drainage valve,
wherein said changeover device is mounted at the valve housing,
wherein the changeover device has a changeover part and a rocker which interact for opening and closing the drainage valve, and
wherein the changeover part is mounted in a pivotable manner in a slide and is changed over in each case for opening and closing the drainage valve.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the changeover device is changed over under tension in each case for opening and closing the drainage valve.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the slide is inserted laterally into part of the valve housing.
4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the rocker is connected to a fixed valve-lifter spindle.
5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein means for restoring the changeover part are arranged at a slide housing.
6. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the rocker is latched when the drainage valve is open.
7. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the rocker is latched at the slide housing.
8. The device according to claim 1 , further comprising an actuating head which has an overflow opening.
