Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a fluid-conveying cast component that can be made easily and inexpensively, while maintaining high quality and reliability. The cast component can be used for fluid conveyance without the need for additional pipes and is automatically protected against corrosion. The cast component is produced from a metal base body and includes a channel for fluid conveyance. It can be used in applications such as wash basins or bath tubs. The cast component is obtained easily and can be supplied for use after a short production time. The invention simplifies production and reduces costs.

Problems solved by technology

The installation of further components on or in a water outlet fitting produced by the casting method is partially considered to be disadvantageous, however, because this is associated with a great amount of time and high production costs.

Embodiment Construction

)

[0042]FIG. 1 shows a cast component according to the invention which is in the form of a water outlet fitting. The latter comprises a base body produced by the die casting method which here forms the housing 1 of the water outlet fitting and is made of a metal alloy suitable for die casting, in particular a zinc alloy, an aluminum alloy or a magnesium alloy.

[0043]The housing 1 of the water outlet fitting is made hollow and is formed by a substantially cylindrical base section B and an arm A projecting from the latter to the side. At the upper end of the cylindrical base section B there is an opening 2 for a flow regulation apparatus that is not drawn in. On its lower side the cylindrical base section B further comprises an opening 3 for the supply of water and the fastening of the water outlet fitting to a further component, in particular to a wash basin (not shown). On the lower side of the projecting arm A there is a water outlet opening 4 in the region of which a threaded hole e...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a die cast component, in particular a water outlet fitting, comprising a base body produced from metal or a metal alloy by the die casting method and having a cavity in which a number of openings are provided by means of which the cavity is accessible from the outside, the cavity being at least partially filled with a casting core that is in two-dimensional contact with the inside of the base body and in which at least one channel is provided for the conveyance of fluid, wherein in a predominant part of the contact surface, in particular in the entire or almost the entire contact surface region between the casting core and the base body, the wall thickness of the casting core is as great as or greater than the wall thickness of the base body. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for producing this type of die casting component.
