Problems solved by technology

[0016] Although there is no need to add a separate lever or third disc to the valve block to do the dual function, the valve requires a complex command drive system with a gear drive train, including a double pinion shaft, which means there are several additional components, Resulting in larger, more expensive and less reliable valves
In addition, its use is inconvenient, since the diversion towards the outlets can only occur sequentially, whereby the user must pass the first (or first) outlet in advance in order to direct the water, for example, to the second (or third) outlet. and second) export diversion

Embodiment Construction

[0026] Referring to Figures 1-3, it can be seen that the valve of the present invention comprises a valve block, described in detail later, housed partly in the base 3 and partly in the cylinder 11, which is extended downwardly from the housing 28. At least one pair of tab portions 28a are closed with the housing 28 fixed to the base 3, said tab portions 28a having openings 28b which engage corresponding locking teeth formed on the outer side of the base 3. In this way, according to the first novel aspect of the invention, the cylindrical body 11 is closed by the casing 28 and achieves a watertight seal with the base 3 .

[0027] Formed in the base 3 are two outermost openings E1 and E2 for inflow of hot and cold water respectively, and two innermost openings MIX1 and MIX2 for outflow towards two different users such as a shower head or a hand shower mixed with water. On the bottom side of the base 3, a seat is formed for accommodating a gasket achieving a watertight seal, fo...

Abstract

The invention relates to a thermostatic mixing valve with integrated flow diverter provided with a first coupling for a control lever for the flow rate adjustment and the flow diversion through a valve group that is housed between a base and a cylindrical body, and with a second coupling for a knob for the temperature adjustment through a thermostatic device, said valve including a member for the transmission of the flow rate adjustment and flow diversion control that directly connects the control lever to the valve group passing through the cylindrical body without moving it, the latter being also enclosed within an external casing secured to the base and achieving a watertight sealing with the base.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a valve for mixing hot and cold water in sanitary installations (wash basins, showers, bathtubs, etc.), and in particular to a cartridge mixing valve with Multiple diverters with different outlet orientations. Background technique [0002] It is known that a conventional single-control mixing faucet includes a faucet body with a cartridge mixing valve (hereinafter referred to as valve) detachably inserted therein and a lever for controlling the valve group in the cartridge, which consists of a pair of Composed of ceramic discs that regulate the flow of hot and cold water. The adjustment of water, including the adjustment of water flow speed and temperature, is achieved by respectively translating and rotating the movable plate on the fixed plate below. In this way, the degree of opening of the ports of the hot and cold water channels formed on the plate is changed, and thus the mixing ratio of the hot and cold water b...
