INSERT WITH ROTATING MESH AND ROTATING MESH FOR AERATORS IN SANITARY BATTERIES Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC E03C1/08 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: insert consists of a casing (1), rotating mesh (5) and O-ring seal (6). The casing (1) has two bearings (2) at its lower part for receiving the axle (7) of the mesh (5). The rotating mesh (5) has two axle (7) on the circumference of its rim, which enter the bearings (2) of the casing (1) of the insert and are used for axial fixation of the rotating mesh (5) providing for rotation of the mesh (5) about its axis (7). The rotating mesh (5) has a cut slot on its circumference, wherein the O-ring seal (6) is installed for sealing between the rotating mesh (5) and the casing (1). The rotating mesh (5) is fixed axially by two screws directly in the aerator body so that it can pivot. The O-ring seal (6) provides for seling between the mesh (5) and the aerator body and simultaneously locks the mesh (5) in its operating position and cleaning position. The screws act as axle providing for the mesh pivoting. The mesh (5) has two openings, which are in fact two bearings for receiving the screws. A method for cleaning the rotating mesh involves pushing the handle (3) with a finger to rotate it horizontally, so that the cog (9) releases the handle (3) from the slot (8). By pressing the handle (3) the rotating mesh (5) is moved in the downward direction around the axle (7) in the bearings (2). Due to this rotation, the base and the upper side of the rotating mesh (5) totally change their positions, the solids are subjected to a water flow and are washed out of the rotating mesh (5). When the rotating mesh (5) has been cleaned, it is rotated by the handle (3) in the opposite direction upwards. The handle (3) is moved into the slot (8) so that the cog (9) can lock the handle (3) and the rotating mesh (5) is set in the operating position back in the casing (1).

EFFECT: ensuring for water purification from solids, aeration, water flow rate adjustment and diverting the water flow to the outlet of the sanitary battery.
