Patent attributes
A jet regulator (1) having a jet fractionating device (2) which distributes the incoming water flow into a plurality of individual jets is provided. The jet regulator (1) has at least one individual jet, from the individual jets formed by the fractionating device, which impacts on a node point (3) of a criss-crossing grid of bars (4, 5) of an outlet side downstream grid network (6). At least one node point (3) is configured as an inlet side recess of the grid network (6) and/or the jet regulator is an aerated jet regulator having a jet regulator housing (7) which includes at least one aeration opening (8) on a periphery of the housing thereof and at least one deflecting projection (9) which is used to maintain the water jet at a distance from the aeration opening that is arranged on the inner periphery of the housing in the direction of flow below the at least one aeration opening (8). The jet regulator (1) provides an improved fractionating of the incoming individual jets.
