Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0893542A1] A recessed cistern for a flushing system for sanitary use, comprising a cistern body or tank (2) for containing the water and a control device (1) for opening the water outlet valve; the control device (1) is operated manually by an external actuator element, for example, constituted by a rocking switch, connected to a rod (22) which passes through an opening (2a) in a wall of the tank (2) and is pivoted to an angle lever (9) of the control device (1), in turn connected to a rod (6) for controlling the outlet valve; the control device is mounted on a support frame (5) located in the upper part of the tank (2); according to the invention, the frame (5) is removably coupled in the form of a bridge to two opposite walls (3, 4) of the tank (2) by means of elastic coupling means (25) projecting from the frame itself and inserted in suitable seats; the elastic coupling means (25) comprise a moveable coupling element provided with a projecting wing (30; 38), pushed outwards by elastic means (31; 39) for holding the wing (30) in engagement with the edge (26) of a front opening (2a) of the tank (2) or in a slot (26a) in a front wall of the cistern body; in this way, the frame (5) can easily be removed from the cistern body (2) through the opening (2a) or an upper opening using a simple tool, disengaging the moveable engagement element (27) from the edge (26) or slot (26a), even when the cistern (2) is already wall-mounted. <IMAGE>
