Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0794292A1] The invention relates to an actuating mechanism for a flushing system having an outlet device (11) arranged in a flush cistern (10) and an inlet device (48). This inlet device has a float device (40) for controlling the supply of liquid into the flush cistern (10) by an inlet valve (48) included in the inlet device (48). The float (40) of said float device is operatively connected to the inlet valve (48) via a link system (47) for opening and closing the inlet valve (48) depending on the liquid level in the flush cistern. The outlet device (11) of the actuating mechanism comprises a release means (49) for opening the outlet valve (11) of the outlet device. According to the invention, the actuating mechanism has a locking device (54-62) for preventing the initiation of a new flushing operation before the flush cistern (10) has again been filled with liquid to above a predetermined minimum level. <IMAGE>
