Flushing device with odour extraction
A flushing device ( 1 ) comprises an extraction device ( 2 ) for extracting odours from a sanitary device such as a toilet bowl or a urinal, a cistern ( 3 ) for holding flushing water, a fill valve ( 4 ) for filling the cistern ( 3 ) and a flush unit ( 5 ) for providing flushing water, wherein the flush unit ( 5 ) comprises a flush valve ( 6 ) with an overflow pipe ( 7 ) and an actuator element ( 8 ) for operating the flush valve ( 6 ). The extractor unit comprises a fan ( 9 ) for extracting air through an air duct ( 10 ), which extends at least partially through the cistern ( 3 ), and a filter element ( 11 ) for filtering the air, wherein the filter element ( 11 ) represents the end of the air duct ( 10 ). The actuator element ( 8 ), fan ( 9 ) and filter element ( 11 ) are mounted on a common housing ( 12 ), particularly arranged in a common housing ( 12 ).
1. A flushing device comprising
an extraction device for extracting odours from a sanitary device such as a toilet bowl or a urinal, a cistern for holding flushing water, a fill valve for filling the cistern and a flush unit for providing flushing water,
wherein the flush unit comprises a flush valve with an overflow pipe and an actuator element for operating the flush valve,
wherein the extractor unit comprises a fan for extracting air through an air duct, which extends at least partially through the cistern, and a filter element for filtering the air, wherein the filter element represents the end of the air duct, wherein
the actuator element, fan and filter element are mounted on a common housing or in a common housing,
wherein the actuator element comprises at least one motor and an actuator lever driven by the motor which acts with an output lever on the at least one actuator lever,
wherein the actuator lever is pivotably mounted relative to the bearing element, which bearing element is connectable to the housing, and
wherein the housing comprises a control cam for aligning the actuator lever during installation, wherein the control cam moves the actuator lever when connecting the bearing element to the housing, such that the actuator lever can be brought into engagement with the flush valve.
2. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises an upper housing part and a lower housing part, which can be interlocked with one another.
3. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the housing provides part of the air duct, wherein the overflow pipe discharges into the housing.
4. The flushing device according to claim 2 , wherein the housing has a leak-proof design in relation to air and/or in relation to water.
5. The flushing device according to claim 3 , wherein the housing has a leak-proof design in relation to air and/or in relation to water.
6. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the housing is for the most part above the water line of the cistern and therefore only has minimal contact with the flushing water when the cistern is completely full.
7. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the housing is designed separately from the cistern and mounted on the cistern.
8. The flushing device according to claim 7 , wherein the housing is connected to the cistern via a snap-action connection.
9. The flushing device according to claim 7 , wherein the housing is connected to the cistern using the lower housing part.
10. The flushing device according to claim 8 , wherein the housing is connected to the cistern using the lower housing part.
11. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the fan and the filter element is mounted on the upper housing part and/or the actuator element is mounted at least partially on the lower housing part.
12. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the motor is a servo motor.
13. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator lever of the actuator element is mounted on the lower housing part and wherein the motor is mounted on the upper housing part.
14. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein said bearing element is connectable to the lower housing part.
15. The flushing device according to claim 14 , wherein the actuator lever can be brought into engagement with a control rod of the flush valve.
16. The flushing device according to claim 14 , wherein the housing comprises an opening through which at least one control rod of the flush valve can be guided, wherein the at least one control rod is connected to the at least one actuator lever.
17. The flushing device according to claim 16 , wherein the housing has an edge sticking out from the housing around the aforementioned opening, which edge extends away from the housing into the inside of the cistern up to beneath the water line when the cistern is completely full.
18. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is a filter cartridge which is mounted in a replaceable manner in a holder integrally formed on the housing.
19. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the housing has a further opening in the region of the filter element via which air can be fed to the filter element.
20. The flushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the fill valve is connected to the housing or is mounted on the housing.
21. The flushing device according to claim 4 , wherein a seal is arranged between the upper housing part and the lower housing part.
22. The flushing device according to claim 18 , wherein the holder is mounted on the outside of the housing.
23. The flushing device according to claim 18 , wherein the holder is mounted on the upper housing part.
