Description

The The invention relates to a mounting device for assembly of washing place elements on a wall.

sanitary for mounting on walls have long been known. such Sanitary facilities are common especially for private bathroom facilities and concern, among other things, so-called washbasins in which sink are embedded or lower cabinets in addition to sink.

A proposal for this is for example from the EP 0 806 164 B1 known. There is proposed a mounting device for the assembly of furniture and wash station elements on a wall, which works with a wall to be mounted in front of the bar, rail or railing-like conception. This support element, which is arranged in front of the wall, then can carry very flexible interchangeable different furniture. Such concepts are used in particular to subsequently allow for a private family to change the furniture of a bathroom, for example, to be able to supplement additional washing facilities or other sanitary facilities.

Other washbasins for mounting on a wall, for example, from the DE 10 2005 002 831 A1 known. There, a polygonal frame is proposed in the washbasins, cabinets, cabinets with patch and integrated sink and other furniture can be used.

It is also known to integrate mirrors in sanitary facilities. For example, the DE 20 2006 012 239 U1 a mirror which is mounted almost flat on a wall and can be moved in front of the illumination means by means of a rail provided above the mirror.

In public and semi-public areas are modular systems for washing machine equipment unknown. The requirements in the public or semi public area are different than in the private sector. For public accessible sanitary facilities will also washbasins and sink needed. Known from public accessible sanitary facilities are for example also hand dryers, which are separate from the washing machine facilities mounted on a wall, soap dispenser systems attached to separately to be attached holder must be attached, and a Series of other elements desired in sanitary facilities.

It is so far very complicated for the architect and planner of public and semi-public buildings (Hotels, airports, public facilities), to coordinate the various elements and installations here, those for such publicly available Sanitary facilities are desired.

It There is therefore a need for washing machine equipment for mounting on a wall, especially for public accessible sanitary facilities are suitable. Especially is for such washing facilities a corresponding Mounting device needed.

task The invention is to propose such a mounting device.

These The object is achieved by the features of a mounting device according to claim 1 realized.

The inventive conception of a mounting device for the installation of wash station elements on a wall a very important difference to conventional concepts Construction of washing facilities in public or semi-public accessible sanitary facilities. This essential Difference exists in a spatial offset of the the receiving device for the mirror provided elements relative to the wall and thus also relative to the recording devices about for the washbasin.

Of the Mirror then has a clear distance after its installation to the wall. At the same time its distance to the user of the wash station is lower as the distance of the user from the trailing edge of the washstand. The mirror is so when using the wash station the user much closer, compared to conventional Laundry facilities.

at Conventional washer facilities required the user of the washing area always relatively far above the vanity bend, for example, when making make-up or complexion corrections wanted to. This distance between mirror and user or viewer is thereby optimized and making the corrections thus considerably simplified.

a the mirror closer to the user has been available so far only with private bathroom facilities. There it is known, about Mirror surfaces as parts of the outer sides of closets to arrange, which is adjacent to the stowage of private washing utensils needed for washing. Such mirror surfaces However, due to their function as parts of flap doors from closets very small.

At public or semi-public sanitary facilities Conversely, the provision of wall cabinets is meaningless since There no private washing utensils must be placed there or should. The provision of such closets would therefore be So far, all in all, also for cost reasons pointless and inappropriate been.

According to the Invention is also provided no closet, but instead In that, by creating an advanced level for The space created by the mirror is a completely different possibility made available. In this room area respectively preferably in and adjacent to the area that surrounds this area down to the area above the washbasin or wash basin delimited one or more additional functional elements arranged or arranged.

at These additional functional elements may be, for example, a Air dryer for drying hands; additional can be provided here also a soap dispenser and / or light.

Especially However, it is preferred if in this area, a sensor element is arranged (wherein this sensor element and a plurality of sensors may comprise) the area below the room area or diagonally below this room area on the presence check and interrogate.

With Such a sensor can then depend on it controlled certain of the mentioned additional functional elements or be released or vice versa ensured that a shutdown of additional function elements takes place when no hands in the area below this room area anyway are located. This area is also at usual washbasins and / or sink also the area above the sink.

With Such a construction can be varied and very different washbasins and sanitary facilities with build one and the same framework. The relevant elements will be simply inserted into the provided recesses and set there.

In The new system wall is from the outset all functions integrated into a wash station: this allows it to be flat integrate into the space architecture and offers through a variety of surfaces and scenarios enormous creative freedom. The planning effort for the coordination of the trades is reduced by the systemic applied solution of all technical interfaces on one Minimum.

A Restriction on 2 frame widths can still practically all possibilities become fulfillable that of the architect and client in the public area be desired.

So can be different hinged or not hinged Mirrors are provided. The mirrors can be hydraulic or pneumatic springs can be hinged.

The inventive concept represents a complete, functional and stylistically optimized wall element All components to ensure the required Functionality is available. At the same time the possibility offered, the personal, architectural taste to realize design. The resulting invention Laundry facilities are self-sufficient and can be used in public areas Laundry facilities are strung together; several such devices fit right next to each other. Nevertheless they can creatively adapted to each other, but depending on your wishes different functionalities have.

Intended is in particular a frame for attachment of the other Building blocks on the wall, so a Vorwandsystem. There are also plans the functional systems required for a water supply including a fitting; are provided as desired Soap dispenser systems, hand dryer systems, sewage systems and Lighting systems.

Also Revision functions and hint functions on specific positions Elements are also provided.

Architects strive for clear interior design - flatness plays an important role. In the public sanitary room but does the integration of a wide variety of areas mean Functions an extreme temporal and coordinative planning effort. With the system wall, the planner can individually plan wash areas and all surrounding functions in the space architecture integrate - and get the technical solution all interfaces included.

washbasins with round, oval and rectangular basins, with shallow basins or vaulted cymbals can each be placed in the frame on a pre-standard Insert a spot.

Functional elements such as siphon, mirror surfaces, light, water supply and disposal and the possibility of waste collection as well as approach-controlled valves, hand dryers, Lotion and towel dispensers can be fully integrated into the wall surface. Light and surfaces are thus the visual design elements and enhance the positive perception of the space. The system wall enables a wide variety of lighting scenarios to be implemented that support spatial development and create atmosphere. For the planking of the walls a variety of surfaces of wood, glass, natural stone and stainless steel are available. Thus, the architect can easily pick up his project-specific planned surfaces and colors in the sanitary room.

All technical interfaces such as water supply and sewage disposal, sound and fire protection, electrical wiring and recordings of the wall paneling can already be solved constructively in the system wall become: The normally incurred planning and coordination effort for the individual trades is thus significantly reduced. The sanitary room becomes an economically predictable Space - and the designer can completely adapt to the actual architecture focus. It is a maximum of planning security and process optimization guaranteed.

It eliminates the previously costly and expensive Coordination of trades such as tiler, electrician, drywall, Stonemason, carpenter, glazier and lighting technician.

It So is a shorter installation time and a reduced Assembly costs possible.

Of the There are no limits to creative freedom new spatial orders, in which the system wall as integrative, separating or connecting element stands - for example for hotel foyers, Airports, restaurants, offices or brand stores.

at the realization of the system according to the invention it is preferred if for the planking of the individual Elements only one wall thickness is realized. nevertheless All colors as well as material types for one Optimal design variety allowed. With a wall thickness this Possibilities to realize become the individual materials relined. In this way, succeeds, different Bring materials to a wall thickness and so on easy Way on the outside a flat plane and thus to create a purist character. Besides you can choose a material for relining, that fixing the design surfaces such as glass considerably simplified.

Of the Use of the mounting device according to the invention is particularly suitable as a building block of a pre-wall system. Possible But is also an application in which the mounting device no is an integral part of a higher-level system. In this case, the elements will then be in front of an existing wall and their installation mounted for remediation purposes.

It there is a possibility for such applications to provide special side panels in the modular system to be offered.

The Elements of the entire modular system are preferably so logical linked to each other, that is also an illustration in one Configurator becomes possible. Even a non-specialist then has one Access to an interactive planning of a car wash facility.

As already stated, the invention Assembly facilities primarily for public and half public area. Nevertheless, it is It is also possible to use single or double systems in the private sector to realize, if this wants an end user. Just in the guest area is also a complete functionality can be used with automatic.

in the The following are some embodiments with reference to the drawings the invention explained in more detail.

It demonstrate:

1 a schematic view of a mounting device according to the invention;

2 a schematic view of the mounting device from the side;

3 a perspective schematic representation of a device according to the invention, already mounted on a wall furniture;

4 a side view of the embodiment of 1 ;

5 a view of the embodiment of the 1 and 2 from the beginning;

6 a perspective view of the embodiment of the 1 to 3 seen from another direction; and

7 an exploded view of several embodiments according to the invention.

The purely schematic representation in 1 shows that a mounting device according to the invention is a frame device 10 which divides vertically into three areas.

Of the middle, central area carries the for one Washplace device Central mounting of a washbasin or Washbasin. In this area also becomes modular a water inlet and a water disposal provided.

Below this central area is an access door 41 intended. For this purpose, an additional lighting can be arranged there.

Particularly according to the invention interesting is the upper area. In the finished washing machine device it falls to the viewer and user especially by one Mirror in which he or certain, for make-up and complexions particularly important parts of his face can look at.

As the 2 shows is this area of the frame with a cradle 30 for a mirror 31 designed so that the mirror 31 moved closer to the user or viewer. Consideration is thus significantly improved compared to conventional, equipped with directly attached to the wall mirrors washplate facilities.

Like also in the 2 already indicated, is between the mirror 31 provided level and the wall and also also mounted in front of the wall receiving device 20 for washbasins 21 , Sink 22 and the like, a space area 33 ,

In this room area 33 In particular, sensors can be arranged which detect the presence of hands below or obliquely below the spatial area 33 determine. Depending on the absence of hands, these sensors can control additional additional functional elements, for example also in the spatial area 33 arranged hand dryer or soap dispenser.

Possible It is also to make a control of the fittings and about one To initiate function such as "water donation".

If These sensors are capable of including the approximate position They can also locate the hand in the areas specifically initiate the corresponding function.

In This area can also have different solutions be provided for a lighting.

The novel position of the mirror is not only beneficial for the user and viewer, without a tedious prevention moved closer to the mirror surface, but also because many functions are realized within the room area can be without the appropriate elements and their technology becomes visible and disturbs the design of the washing area or determined and him a "machine-like" cut gives.

One of the conceivable lighting options, also in this room area 33 can be provided, allows a direct, glare-free illumination of the washbasin or washing area.

The widths of the wall elements, which are approximately in the 1 schematically and in the 3 are shown in detail, are freely selectable. This basically allows the installation of all desired individual systems for soap dispensers and hand dryers; For hand dryers are not only air dryers, but depending on the choice of the architect or the client and towel dispensers for disposable towels or for cyclic towel railways possible.

Also, an integration of instantaneous water heaters or drinking water dispensers will be in the room area 33 possible.

In order to enable a particularly cost-effective and easy to plan realization of the mounting devices according to the invention, in particular a construction of the mounting device is provided with two wall widths, that is, two different frame widths. In addition to an element with a slightly larger width, which can accommodate sinks and vanities, also a narrower variant is provided, which provides, for example, discharge systems in the middle area instead of washbasins or sinks. Also, this narrower variant may appear suitable additional functional elements in the room area also provided there 33 behind the mirror 31 take up.

Conceivable is also a large, third wall element with a still larger width, in addition to a vanity can additionally accommodate a discharge element. The wall elements are not limited to receiving concrete washbasins; a Variety of possibilities offers itself here.
