Abstract (en)

An outlet nozzle for a jet of water in hygiene/sanitary apparatus is described and has means for covering the nozzle (12) in order to mask the nozzle (12) from view when it is not in use. The means are constituted basically by a cap (14) which is hinged, on one of its sides, to the inner wall of the hygiene/sanitary apparatus whereas, on the opposite side, the cap is provided with means for temporary engagement and locking on the inner wall of the hygiene/sanitary apparatus. The temporary engagement and locking means are configured in a manner such as to allow the nozzle (12) to be freed and the cap (14) to be brought to a rest position by the pressure of the water emerging from the nozzle (12). <IMAGE>
