Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9423140A1] The water-saving device makes is possible to portion a certain amount of water while flushing. The water-saving device comprises a push-button (5), which is fixed in a cup-shaped part (1). Inside the push-button (5) adjustable push-elements (4) are mounted, through holes (10) in the cup-shaped part (1). Between the cup-shaped part (1) and the push-button (5) a spring (7) is mounted. The cup-shaped part (1) has a connection element (2) for the lifting rod (3). The ends of the push-elements (4) are supported by a fixed support (9) on the toilet. When the flushing is actuated, the push-button (5) and the cup-shaped part (1) are pressed together and the movement of the lifting rod (3) is limited. The movement can be adjusted by threads (6) on the push-elements (4). The amount of water depends on the actuation time and how the push-elements (4) are adjusted.
