MOUNTING DEVICE FOR A dash panel

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a mounting device for a

Dash panel in accordance with claim 1. It further relates to a

Fitting unit comprising a mounting device of the type mentioned, a basic element for a mounting device, a fluid-connecting member, and a method for mounting a fitting unit.

BACKGROUND ART

Built-fixed fittings units for the connection of fluids such as gases or liquids offer the advantage of a great robustness. Especially in the industrial and public and semi-public sectors of these benefits come to

Carry. Thus, without externally accessible movable or manipulatable parts are arranged fittings, for example, in the sanitary sector.

It is desirable for the mounting of such fittings units

simplify. For example, arises when drilling dowel holes lot

Dirt, it is necessary to work carefully and precisely, and existing structures, such as tiles, are irreversibly damaged. US 2005/0044623 proposes a mounting device for a shower panel before, wherein the wall mounting is carried out on the one hand to the existing line connections in the wall, and on the other hand, a suction cup to further support and fixation is used. Thus, a shower panel without holes can be fixed to a wall by means of the device proposed there. Also, the CN 103343557 specifies an instrument unit in which a dash panel is attached to the existing pipe connections in the wall. One drawback, however, is seen in the fact that when the valves units, for example, to pre-existing line connections into a wall

be connected, the height of a fitting is fixed. So it may be that for example, a shower head comes to lie deeper than desired or higher. This goes hand in hand with losses in terms of comfort and efficiency. The same is true for fittings panels with taps,

Mixer taps, sinks, and the like.

The same can be said when, for example gas connections are to be arranged from existing line connections in a wall at an ergonomically and / or operationally favorable position.

The processes known from the prior art fittings units which are mounted on the existing line connections on a wall, that show the drawback of low flexibility with regard to the arrangement of the armatures at a predetermined position of the pipe connections in the wall. So therefore, its own dash panel must to be able to benefit from their advantages accepted the disadvantages mentioned, or for any application to be built.

PRESENTATION OF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS DESCRIPTION will present case described a mounting device for a dash panel which offers advantages in this respect. The mounting device is designed such that it can be secured there in the wall without additional drilling on the one hand, that existing line connectors as

Attachment points uses, on the other hand the desired flexibility with regard to the arrangement of the valves guaranteed. According to a further aspect, a dash panel or unit by means of the fittings

Mounting device described is particularly simple and fast, therefore inexpensive to assemble. Furthermore, a fluid-connecting member is described which simultaneously serves to attach the mounting device to the wall or other surface, such that the attachment can be made directly to an existing wall in the piping. The described fluid connector element is particularly easy to handle. It also has to position the connection for the fittings according to the requirements flexibly the advantage.

Furthermore, a method for mounting a valve unit can be described using the assembly device described.

Further effects and advantages of the articles described herein, whether explicitly stated or not, arise in light of the present description.

The fluid port member has a through-flow channel as well as a pressing surface, wherein the

Through flow channel passes through a plane of the pressure surface and wherein the pressure surface is dimensioned such that at least their maximum total, cross-sectional extension is greater than at least one cross-sectional extension of the through hole. Under the holistic cross-sectional extension is a measure "over all" to understand. The holistic cross-sectional extension is therefore a measure on the outer edges of the contact surface. If it is, for example, an annular pressure surface, then under the holistic cross-sectional extension just not the width of the ring between an outer radius and an inner radius to understand, but the outer diameter. at least the smallest cross-sectional extent of the at least one passage opening is therefore smaller than said

Cross-sectional extension of the contact surface. Furthermore, the fluid connection element has a stub which extends from the plane of the contact surface and is cantilevered therefrom. The flow channel extends through the nozzle therethrough. In particular, the neck is generally circular-cylindrical or generally conical in other embodiments, a truncated cone, is formed with a circular cross section, wherein the cone towards the free end of the sleeve tapers. Generally cylindrical or generally conical, that chamfers or grooves, or other structures, such as a thread, can be arranged on the outer circumference of the sleeve, of course, as long as the envelope of the contour has a cylindrical or conical shape in this context. At one axial end of the sleeve is a

Cross-sectional enlargement formed, whereby a radial step of the fluid connection element is formed which further has on the free end of the sleeve and forms the pressure surface. Another possible exemplary

Embodiments of the fluid connection element are given below. The at least one passage opening is constructed and arranged such that the connecting piece different as the fastening means on at least two

Positions on the base member through the base member is guided. In other words, the at least one through opening and the fluid connection element being dimensioned coordinated such that, although the nozzle to pass through a through hole through which at least, and so on not at least two positions on the base member, the contact surface, however, and thus on by guided connecting piece an edge of the

can rest through opening. There are those positions where the nozzles can be passed through the base member, also referred to hereinafter as fixing positions. Suitably, the at least one

It may be provided that the distance between two possible mounting positions of 100mm or less, especially 80 mm or less, and more particularly 50 mm or less.

The at least one through-opening is furthermore designed and arranged such that at least three possible mounting positions are possible, and in particular at least five possible attachment positions are provided.

With regard to the configuration of the fluid-connecting member with the connecting piece is to be noted that according to certain embodiments of the subject matter described herein, the fluid connector member is integrally formed integrally with the nozzle. Under one piece is in this case on the one hand to be understood that the fluid connection element is manufactured with the piece seamlessly from a blank, or that the fluid connection element undetachably,

is joined for example by brazing or welding with the nozzle. In other embodiments, the fluid port element is releasably, in particular non-destructively removably, assembled from a pressing member and a, in particular hollowed, bolts, on which the socket is formed. For example, the bolt may be screwed into the pressure element. It should be appreciated that care must be taken to an appropriate seal between the bolt and the pressure element in these embodiments to prevent fluid leakage from the flow channel can be made by the joint between the bolt and the pressure element. In particular, the contact surface is formed at a surrounding the bolt end face of the pressure element.

The connecting piece is formed and shaped to produce directly or with an intermediate spacer or adapter, such as the connection sleeve to provide a fluid connection with a wall connection management described below. In certain embodiments, an external thread is formed on the neck such that the fluid connection element has with the connecting piece has an external thread on the connecting piece.

The attachment positions are, in certain embodiments of the

The subject matter described infinitely selectable, for example by the arrangement of a slot within which the mounting position can be selected. In other embodiments of the subject matter described the attachment positions are incrementally set, for example, the array of discrete through openings. made hereafter

Embodiments and mixed forms of both, by a plurality of discrete elongated holes are arranged, for example. This is below and in the

Embodiments described.

The starting position for use of the present article is especially as follows: a dash panel to be attached to a surface, for example to a wall, such that a fitting of the dash panel comes to lie at a defined position. It is at the surface on which the mounting is to take place, a fastening point specified. The surface may for example be a surface of an upright wall and the

Attachment point, a line connection in the wall. The specified

Mounting device now makes it possible the attachment position of

to select the base element of the mounting device so flexible that, when the dash panel by means of corresponding fastening means on

is dash panel and connected to the base member to the mounting device, the armature comes to rest at the desired target position. This has to be able to use the advantage of existing mounting points on the surface, without having to create new attachment points. In particular, takes place at the desired mounting position of a screw connection to the

such that the basic element can be pressed when tightening the screw against the surface and connected to frictionally fastening point of the surface.

By means of the assembly device described here and the further below installation process, it is thus possible for a specific

Dash panel at a fixed predetermined mounting position on a surface and in particular at a fixed predetermined position of a

to mount the lead terminal on the surface such that a desired position of the disposed on the dash panel fittings is achieved. The position of the valves can be flexibly chosen it, but is fixed after assembly. The valves may, for example gas connections, locking members, faucets, shower heads and the like, although this list is by no means to be understood as exhaustive. The assembly can be done without requiring new mounting points in the area to which the dash panel is to be located must be created. This can be found as

Fixing point, in particular a line connection use to which a fitting of the dash panel is to be connected. This makes it possible on the one hand by the fact that on the base member, the at least one

Through hole is performed such that at least two

Attachment positions are provided, and, on the other hand by the fact that the fluid connection element is designed with the pressure surface so that it at the same time, in addition to establishing a fluid communication with the

Line connection, is also involved in the attachment of the base to the surface.

The described apparatus and method described below make it possible to say for example, at a predetermined position of a

to arrange a valve arranged on a dash panel at a desired height to a wall of the water connection to a wall, without having to create new attachment points in the wall. In another example, it is possible to arrange access to a user connection points for gases at predetermined wall connections in easily accessible places. This may be, for example, in industrial applications, but also for example in hospitals, beneficial.

therefore is particularly expedient, the attachment point is selected at a point at which a line connection to the surface is arranged. Of the

Line connection can in this case within a structure on which the surface is arranged, are, or the line connection can protrude on the side of said surface from this structure. The line connection may be a connection of a supply line for a gaseous or liquid medium, such as a water connection. but the line connection may also be a connection to a return line, such as a sewer line to be. Said structure is, for example, a wall. When the line connection is located within the structure, the primitive is so applied to the surface such that a passage opening at the desired position on the

Basic element with the location of the area to cover is where the

Line connection is disposed. The fluid-connecting element has a stub which extends from the pressure surface, and a part of the flow channel of the fluid connection element is disposed in the interior thereof. In this case, the nozzle according to a particular embodiments

External thread which corresponds with an internal thread connected to the line connection or a connection to the line

Adapter is provided. The through hole is dimensioned such that the nozzle can be passed through the through hole. In this way the connecting piece serves as an attachment means for the base member. The nozzle of the fluid connection element is screwed to the pipe connection, whereby the contact surface comes to lie on the edge of the through hole. With sufficient tightening torque of the screw connection, the base element on the surface is fixed. In certain embodiments, the fluid connection element has a pressure element and a bolt which are detachably joined to one another or fügbar. Here, the nozzle is formed on the pin. For example, the pressing member includes an inner flow passage extending through the pressure surface. In this channel, a female thread is formed, for example. The bolt has a

corresponding external thread, such that the bolt along a portion of its axial extension can be screwed into the pressure element, wherein the connecting piece protrudes. Thus, it is possible to piece or

to screw bolts of the fluid connection element alone with the lead terminal to position the basic element via the bolt, the bolt extends then through the through hole, and then to add the pressure element with the pin on which the socket is formed, to screw in particular , By a corresponding tightening of the connection the base member on the surface is fixed on said Art. In this case, a fluid connection between the lead terminal and the through flow channel in fluid connection element is produced in each case. The compound respectively screwing the fluid connection element with the

Installation can on the one hand be manufactured directly, for example by directly screwing, in particular screwing, of the sleeve with the or in the line connection, or may be a

comprise between child element, such as a connection box, as described in more detail below.

In a corresponding embodiment of the base member of the

Mounting device can be used this even if several, especially two, line connections are available. This can be used to

be, but such connections for hot and cold water connections also for different gases or liquids.

Accordingly, a method for mounting an instrument unit on a surface is disclosed. The fittings unit comprises a mounting device according to the present description and a dash panel, comprising the means by which the dash panel can be fixed to corresponding means of the base plate of the mounting device, and at least one valve. Said method comprises selecting a desired position of an armature to determine the position of a line connection to the surface to determine the fixing position required of the distance of the positions that the lead terminal must have on the base member, ensure that the valve reaches the desired position, in such a way to apply the basic element with its back to the surface such that the lead terminal at the required

Fastening position with a through hole of the base member to cover coming, and to connect the fluid connection element from the front side of the base member forth with the line connection and to screw in particular. In a more specific case, it is a method for assembling a

Fitting unit on an upright surface, comprising selecting a desired height of a fitting to determine the height of a line connection to the upright surface to determine the required position from the height difference that the lead terminal must have to the base member, ensure that the valve reaches the desired height in such a way to apply the basic element with its rear side on the upright surface such that the lead terminal at the required position comes with a through hole of the base member to cover, and to connect the fluid connection element from the front side of the base member forth with the line connection and to screw in particular ,

By appropriately tightening the screw connection, the base member can be frictionally engaged with the surface on which the valve unit is fixed, wherein each of said mounting method.

Of course, several, in particular two, Leitungsanschüsse may be present, which are each connected to a fluid connection element to the said manner. The method may further include connecting a fluid connection of the valve with a provided on a fluid connector element available fluid port. Here can particularly flexible connecting elements, such as hoses, use find. In addition, the method may include, in particular after the necessary fluid connections are made, the corresponding dash panel through the connection

The orientation of the row and the straight line is in front of it, the direction along which the different fastening positions can be selected. Thereby extending according to a more specific aspect of the

Mounting device, the row or the straight line along a transverse extent or the longitudinal extent of the base member.

In further embodiments, at least two parallel rows of openings are arranged. The pitches of the openings in both rows are in particular identical. This allows flexible use of the fixture even where more than two cable connections are available and should be used. They may be prove to be advantageous if the passage orifices are dimensioned in one of these rows so that a fastening element is received with little clearance in each direction, as explained above, while the through holes are formed in the or the other rows in such a way that in general a bigger game is possible. Thus tolerances in the arrangement of

Cable connections are offset relative to each other. The mounting device may further comprise a connecting sleeve. The connection sleeve mentioned has a first thread that is suitable and intended to be screwed to a pipe connection, such as a building side connecting predetermined wall. the said

Connection sleeve further comprises a second thread, which corresponds with a thread of the fluid-connecting element, such that by means of the second thread of the neck of the fluid connection element with the

EMBODIMENTS

Figure 1 shows an instrument unit 1 which includes a dash panel 10, and a mounting device, said mounting device comprises a base member 20 and a fluid connector element 50th The basic element 20 has a front, which points to the dash panel, and a

opposite rear. This back side has a flat contact surface with which the basic element can be arranged on a wall, not shown, or other surface. At the dash panel 10, a valve is arranged in known per se, in the illustrated example, a recording device 11 for a shower head. continues to be a

arranged nut connection 12, can be guided over the water to the shower head. not shown for reasons of clarity, for the

Skilled in the art, however, readily understandable, there is a connection between the fitting terminal 12 and the fluid connection element 50th

These can be made to likewise known per se, through flexible and particularly pressure-resistant hoses. The fluid-connection element 50 of the

Mounting device includes a hollowed-out connecting piece 52 in which a channel is arranged 51st The bore in the connecting piece is connected which opens into a groove which acts as a fluid distributor in the fluid connection element with a radial bore. The fluid connector element 50 is carried out below in detail. On the neck 52, an external thread is arranged. By means of this external thread, the fluid connection element can be screwed into an unillustrated pipe connection 50th Thus, a fluid, for example, in the illustrated example of a Showerpanel water from which

Line connection flow into the fluid-connection element 50 and, from there, as already described above for fitting connection 12th By screwing the fluid connection element 50 and of the nozzle 52 in a line connection, which is arranged for example in a wall, a pressing surface 53 of the fluid connector element comes on the front of the

Base member 20 to the plant. Upon further tightening of the screw connection between the fluid port member 50 and the pipe connection a force on the basic element is exerted which presses the base member against the wall, not shown, and is fixed there by friction. Although the wall and the line connection are not shown for clarity, is this opens the skilled person. Between the wall and the base member, a device can be arranged at a different position of the basic element still, which is attached by adhesion to the wall, and thus a rotation of the fitting unit about the through the fluid connection element provided fastening point prevents available. The adhesive connection mentioned can be made for example by a suction cup or by gluing. As can be seen, the basic element can be drilled in this way very easily and without dowel holes are attached to a wall. The dash panel 10 is connected by suitable means 13 and 14, and corresponding means 21 and 22 are connected to likewise known per se to the base element. In this way the dash panel on the wall is fixed.

The view of a front side of the base member 20 in the Figure 2 discloses an arrangement of multiple through-holes 23 in a row or along a straight line, wherein the orientation of the row and which extends straight in the direction of the longitudinal extension of the base member. The through holes 23 are arranged with a raster or pitch dimension t. This pitch dimension is constant for all through-holes, is what is not mandatory, but practical. Is through these through-holes as shown in Figure 1, a fastener, so for example a nozzle of a fluid connection element can be guided to fasten the base element, as described in connection with Figure 1, to a wall or other surface. Each of the through holes 23 provides a discrete

Mounting position. The increments of the attachment positions are t through the pitch dimension and wherein predetermined diameter D of the through holes shown, determined by the distance s of opposite edges of the through holes. This spacing s is chosen substantially smaller than the diameter D. The diameter D is selected, for example, in a range of 23 to 25 millimeters. The division value can be for example 30 mm, from which a distance s results of about 6 mm. The distance s in this case is about one-quarter of the diameter of the through holes. These measurements are of course not limiting; the respective mass, in particular the cross-sectional dimensions of the

Through holes can be selected depending on practical and, for example, the outer diameter of the element to be carried out in the individual case.

In the figure 4 an exemplary embodiment of the fluid-connecting element 50 is shown. The fluid-connection element 50 has a first end 65 and a second end face 66th Between the end faces 65 and 66 an axial extension of the fluid-connecting element along a longitudinal axis is 57definiert. On the first end side of the fluid-connecting element comprises a connecting piece 52 which is provided with an external thread 54th Starting from the first end face 65 is not visible first flow passage extends into the present illustration, axially through the nozzle and within the fluid connection element. At one axial end of the sleeve 52 has a radial step is formed which forms with an end face 53 that explained in connection with Figure 1 pressure surface. On the fluid connection element is a circumferential groove 56 is also arranged. At the bottom of the groove is a second, radially extending, channel 55 is arranged which communicates with the first passage, as described below in conjunction with FIG 5 will be explained in more detail. The groove 56 is delimited by two axial limiting walls 58 and 59th Each boundary wall 58 and 59 is disposed on a cylindrical ring 60 and 61 respectively. On each of the rings is a further circumferential groove 62 and 63 for receiving a

Sealing member arranged. Further approaches tool 64 are arranged on the second end side 66, which on screwing of

External thread 54 with a counterpart, for example with a thread which is formed within a connecting cable in a wall are used.

In the Figure 5 the fluid connection element 50 is shown in a section along AA in Figure 4, wherein furthermore a ring-shaped element 70 is shown, which covers the groove 56 and terminates. The first channel 51 is designed as emanating from the first face 65 axial blind bore. A second channel 55 passes from the base of the groove 56 and intersects the first passage 51 such that fluid communication between the first end face 65 and the groove 56 of the fluid connection element is made fiftieth The annular member 70 covers the groove 56 and surrounds the cylindrical rings 60 and 61. O-rings 71 and 72 are inserted into the explained in connection with Figure 4 receiving grooves for receiving a sealing element. By means of this is a fluid-tight arrangement between the annular member and the rings produced. On the annular element has a connection opening 73 is disposed, which extends from a radially inner to a radially outer wall of the annular member. The opening 73 is designed as a bore with an internal thread. The annular member also has a second threaded hole in which a screw is arranged 74th By means of the screw 74, which projects into the groove 56, the annular element 70 is axially fixed in position on the collars 60 and 61, and can be fixed if necessary by further screwing in the screw and in the circumferential direction. Due to the fluid-tight arrangement of the annular element on the rims, a fluid flows for example, from the end face 65 of the fluid-connecting element 50 formed by the from the first channel 51 and second channel 55 through the flow channel into the groove 56, is distributed in the circumferential groove 56 and can flow through the opening 73 of the annular member 70th As is now readily comprehensible, is when the fluid connection element is screwed when mounting the mounting accessory to a surface in a counterpart and tightened, the predetermined circumferential position of the radial bore 55th By contrast, the annular element 70 can be placed on the rings in a line for connecting a suitable and accessible position on the circumference of the fluid connection element. thereby a hose end can for example be screwed directly to the threaded opening 73, or it may also be a suitable

Coupling element to be screwed for connecting a line. in particular to the above-described step, if necessary, the circumferential position of the annular element can then by tightening the screw 74 to be backed up. This illustrated here fluid-connection element is a one-piece, integral embodiment. As stated above, the fluid connection element can be joined also consist of a pressure element and a bolt on which the nozzle is designed to be detachable. in this case, the pressure element comprises the region between the pressing surface 53 and the second end face 66. The bolt is screwed, for example, into an internal thread of the pressure element, and the joint is such suitable sealed so that no fluid leakage from the space formed by the channels 51 and 55 flow through channel can be done through the joint. This embodiment opens up to the skilled artisan in light of the present explanations unconstrained, so as to dispense with an explicit representation.
