Embodiment Construction

[0029]The faucet is shown simplified and schematically in section in the accompanying drawings. It is mainly composed of a base body 1 and an outflow pipe 2 . The inner diameter 3 of the outflow tube 2 is indicated by a circle. On the base body 1 there is a handle 4 indicated by a dotted outline for manually inducing the inflow of water. The water outlet 5 is provided with a beam shaper (Perlator) 6 . Inside the base body 1 there is a mixing chamber 7 to which the outflow line 2 is connected. Two pipes 8 , 9 for cold water (KW) and hot water (WW) lead to the mixing chamber 7 . The tap is equipped with a pressure switch 10 , which is operatively connected via a line 11 to a pressure sensor 12 arranged in the mixing chamber 7 . Also belonging to the faucet is an adjustment block 13 and a transformer 14 . A weak current is supplied to the regulation block 13 via the transformer 14 . A line 15 leads from the adjustment block 13 to a temperature sensor 16 arranged in the mixi...

Abstract

The object of the invention is to give a coloured, temperature-dependent appearance to the water flowing out of a hot-water fitting. For that purpose, three temperature ranges are formed and a colour is associated with each of the temperature ranges. The three ranges correspond to too cold, too hot and desired temperature ranges. A lever (4) is actuated to cause a water jet (20) to flow out of the fitting. Depending on the position of the lever (4), only cold water, only hot water or mixed proportions of cold and hot water flow into the mixing chamber (7). Depending on the temperature measured in the mixing chamber (7), a control block (13) drives diodes (17) arranged at the outlet of the hot-water fitting and having a colour which corresponds to the temperature range in question, causing the diodes to emit light. The water jet (20) flowing past the diodes (17) is illuminated with said colour. The user of the fitting can recognise the water temperature from the coloured appearance of the water jet (20) and if necessary correct it by actuating the lever (4).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing a flow of colored liquid and a device according to the preamble of claim 5 . Background technique [0002] It is known to give a white or colored appearance to liquid streams from water taps, fountains, artificial waterfalls and the like for achieving optical effects. For this purpose, light sources are used, the light waves of which are guided into the medium. This intentional luminous effect is achieved when the light waves strike the edge of the outflowing water jet and onto a medium such as a washbasin. The luminous effect over the entire length of the water jet is produced by the reflection of directed light waves within the water jet, as is known from glass fiber optic cables. For light, color and luminescence effects are understood to be the visible color signal which can be seen by a normal-sighted eye in the fluid or at the location where the fluid reaches. [0003] For example, patent documen...
