Definitions
- the invention relates to a tub, in particular bath and / or Shower tray with a horizontal tray bottom, with one protruding upwards from the tub floor Tub wall in an access area of the bathtub has a wall recess that the wall recess with a detachable and an edge of the wall recess watertight closing closure accidental is.
- U1 is a bathtub with a horizontal extending tub floor and one of the tub floor known upstanding tub wall, wherein the tub wall for easier entry into the Bathtub has a wall recess.
- the wall recess is by means of a watertight closing Closing element closable, so that after the lightened Access to the bathtub followed by the water can be embedded in the bathtub.
- the closure element is designed to be insertable, after being inserted of the closure element in the wall recess the end position is achieved by locking. To increase both the edge of the wall recess shows the tightness as well as the sealing element sealing elements on.
- the closure element can be telescopically designed and lowered be, the closure element in a guide of Wall recess is used.
- it can Closure element also as a bellows with a hard Bellows bottom and flexible bellows sides can be formed.
- the closure element can also be designed as a folding door that has a Hinge is connected to the wall recess.
- the object of the present invention is a tub like this to further educate them on the one hand for bathing and on the other hand is suitable for showering, with a high degree tightness and easy handling of the attachment a closure element in a wall recess Tub are guaranteed.
- the invention is in connection characterized by the preamble of claim 1, that on the one hand the edge of the wall recess at least in a lower area convex in cross section and on the other hand the corresponding edge of the closure element formed concave in cross section is such that the mutually facing contact surfaces the edges are sealed together.
- the particular advantage of the invention is that due to the convex shape of at least one lower one Edge of the wall recess long-term stable an increased Tightness of the tub in the assembled state of a closure element given is.
- Basic idea of the invention is to design the edge of the wall recess in such a way that there is no water on the contact surface of the wall recess edge can collect.
- the corresponding edge of the closure element on the Contour of the wall recess edge matched so that the mutually facing contact surfaces of the wall recess on the one hand and the closure element on the other fit snugly against each other.
- the edge of the wall recess as a longitudinal one Curvature and the edge of the closure element as one longitudinal trough formed.
- the curvature extends in the longitudinal direction U-shaped continuously along the Edge of the wall recess from a first end of the Wall recess to a second end of the Wandungsausappelung.
- the curvature can be formed by molding the same Manufacturing process of the bathtub.
- the continuous curvature and the corresponding continuous trough form a sealing tongue and groove connection between the closure element and the edge of the WandungsausEnglishung.
- the height of the curvature or the depth the trough is designed such that it breaks out the closure element from the wall recess securely is avoided.
- the recess of the closure element is used to increase the sealing effect provided with a sealing element that in the trough is framed and matches the shape of the trough.
- the closure element an upper attachment part with an edge Fastening tab on the non-positive and / or form-fitting with an upper area of the tub wall connected is.
- the mounting tab by means of a screw cap with the tub wall connected, so that the final assembly position of the closure element can be safely maintained.
- a lower area of the wall recess extends into the Level of the tub floor so that access to the tub is relieved.
- a tub 1 according to the invention consists essentially of a flat tub floor 2 and one of the tub floor 2 Upright upright tub wall 3.
- the tub wall 3 is arranged in an oval shape in the horizontal direction. Furthermore, the tub wall 3 is in the vertical direction tapered downwards.
- the tub wall 3 has on one long side to facilitate Access to the bathtub 1 a wall recess 4 on.
- the wall recess 4 is by means of a closure element 5 watertight closable.
- the width of the tub recess 4 in the horizontal direction is chosen in such a way that easy access for one person to the tub 1 is guaranteed.
- Access for the sick and disabled in particular for the purpose of bathing, taking care of access to the tub can be securely sealed by means of the closure element 5 can.
- the tub 1 can be omitted Closure element 5 can be used as a shower tray, whereby an unillustrated shower curtain prevents Drain the spray water beyond the edge of the tub 1 can.
- the tub floor 2 is in the direction of one Drain opening 6 is inclined so that a steady Drainage of water is guaranteed.
- a water inlet fitting 7 is provided on the long side of the tub 1, by means of which water for bathing purposes Installation of the closure element 5 embedded in the tub 1 can be. So that the tub 1 is tightly closed, forms an edge 8 of the wall recess 4 with an edge 9 of the closure element 5 a tongue and groove connection, the facing contact surfaces 10 of the edge 8 and the contact surfaces 11 of the edge 9 flat against each other lie.
- the edge 8 of the wall recess 4 formed convexly as a curvature 12 which in one as a trough 13 concave edge 9 of the closure element 5 engages.
- Both the curvature 12 and the trough 13 are also continuous from an upper first End 14 of the wall recess 4 or the closure element 5 to an upper second end 15 of the wall recess 4 or the closure element 5.
- the edges 8, 9 thus have a simple geometric Structure based on molding in the manufacture of the one-piece tub 1 or the closure element 5 can.
- the edge 9 of the closure element 5 is preferably included provided the relatively soft sealing element 17.
- the sealing element 17 can by gluing or by injection be connected to the edge 9 of the closure element 5.
- the Sealing element 17 forms the contact surface 11 for the edge 8 the wall recess 4.
- the edge can also 8 of the wall recess 4 is formed with a sealing element his.
- This variant can, but does not have to, the sealing element 17 of the closure element 5 omitted become.
- the closure element 5 consists of an arcuate Base part 18, which in the assembled state of the closure element 5 quasi a part of the upright tub wall 3 forms. Furthermore, the closure element 5 has one adjoining the base part 18 at an obtuse angle upper neck part 19, which is in a horizontal Level extends.
- the extension part 19 is in one piece with connected to the base part 18 and facing opposite Ends 20 each have a fastening means 21 for fastening of the closure element 5 on the tub wall 3.
- the attachment part 19 has a fastening tab at the ends 20 22 with a bore 23 in which a Screw closure part 24 is held non-detachably.
- the Screw closure part 24 is designed as a screw with a threaded shaft 25 and a Control knob or tub handle trained head 26.
- the Control knob 26 is spherical, so that it is easy to grasp and handle.
- connection between the mounting tab 22 and the edge 28 of the Tub wall 3 also form-fitting through appropriate Latching means are generated.
- the bore 23 of the fastening tab preferably has 22 on the edge of the sealant 29, so that entry is prevented by water.
- the tub 1 including the closure element 5 is preferred made of a plastic material or a composite material, especially from a polyester or acrylic / Steel material or from or a steel enamel material manufactured.
- the lower flat edge of the wall recess 5 can approximately in one plane to the tub floor 2 or compared to this increased by up to 40% his.
- the height of the curvature 12 or the depth of the trough 13 can are in a range of 10 to 30 mm.
- the length of the Trough 1 can range from 0.9 m to 2.0 m or lie larger.
- the width of the tub 1 can be in a range from 0.6 m to 1.0 m.
