ABSTRACT:
A flushing cistern includes a reservoir with an outlet opening, the opening and closing of which is controlled by a cistern bell. The cistern bell is connected to an activator for lifting the cistern bell when the flushing is initiated. The cistern bell has a cavity and a circumferential seal cooperating with the area about the outlet opening in the reservoir. At least a portion of the cavity in the cistern bell forms a buoyancy-adjusting chamber which is open downwardly inside the seal and communicates upwardly with a control, through an air-escape pipe.
