Description

Kit for the production of wall or floor finishes between

Built-in objects and a wall or floor

The invention relates to a kit for the production of waterproof wall and floor finishes after the installation or installation of baths, shower trays, kitchen appliances, work desks, etc., especially on lightweight walls and drywall, such as wood fiber and plasterboard after the preamble of claim 1.

The priorities of the Swiss patent application CH 01916/06 of 28.11.2006 entitled "FITTINGS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF

WALL CLOSURES BETWEEN MOUNTING OBJECTS AND A CLOSING WALL "and German Utility Model Application DE 20 2007 003 943.3 of 24.5.2007, entitled" FITTING DEVICE FOR PRODUCING WALL CLOSURES BETWEEN BUILDING OBJECTS AND A CLOSURE WALL ".

So far, bath and shower trays with fixed, i. known with the tubs in one piece pressed, rigid frames. These rigidly mounted frames have the disadvantage that they can not be adapted to the corresponding circumstances of the installation site. Depending on the installation situation, e.g. with or without

Masonry, there is a need for adjustment. This requires tubs With fixed frames therefore in the factory accordingly with great effort specially manufactured. Since such a tray with fixed by Blechabkantung fixed frame is immutable, you can not be used universally in misallocation.

According to the patent EP 0 748 179 B1, there is a flexible frame band, called "flex frame", which has proven itself in such situations for the prevention of moisture damage The corresponding flexible frame band is watertight connected with the devices to be installed or tubs and tables but after installation or installation loosely, ie not waterproof on the walls.The water protection is limited by the height of the Zargenborde.

Now, however, the problem increasingly arises that in the sanitary and kitchen area lightweight walls, for example made of plasterboard or wood, are used. These walls are very sensitive to moisture and so far a great deal of effort had to be made to protect such walls from penetrating water. However, there remains the risk of water infiltration and the associated consequential damage outside the safety range of flex frames, i. by the migration of water between the loosely fitting Flexzargenborde walls and floors and the Rohwand.

So far, there is no solution that makes it possible to prevent water entering the wall, for example through fragile kit joints or mortar joints, behind tiles or other cladding panels. Even with surface-treated walls, the problem is not solved, because although the water can not penetrate directly into the wall, but runs down the wall and then cause damage at the transition to the ground. The invention therefore has the task of proposing a kit for the production of waterproof wall connections and / or bottom finishes for installation items (bathtubs, shower trays, countertops in kitchens, and the like), with a simple and easy adaptation to the present at the installation site special conditions possible should be.

This object is achieved on the basis of a known flexible Zargenband the introductory type by the characterizing features of claim 1.

The measures mentioned in the dependent claims advantageous embodiments and developments are possible.

Accordingly, in addition to e.g. T-shaped, flexible

Zargenband a separate from the installation item sealing tape provided for attachment to the end wall. This sealing tape is in this case designed so that it overlaps in the installed state with a water-impermeable overlap strip an upper strip of the Zargenbandes. In addition, in this particular embodiment, the sealing tape comprises a so-called penetration strip, which is intimately and tightly connected to the underlying end wall by coating or rolling over with a coating liquid.

The frame can be mounted on site on the sides of the installation object, which come to rest on an end wall or floor and thus require a degree. Then the fixture is placed on the end wall or on the floor and the sealing tape is fixed to the end wall or floor so that the waterproof overlap strip overlaps the top strip of the frame tape.

Subsequently, the penetration strip and the overlying area the finishing wall, or the floor with the coating liquid overcoated or rolled over.

For example, if the installation items are a bath or shower tray, e.g. With the T-shaped, flexible frame together with the sealing tape with a few simple steps a clean and dense wall finish or bottom finish can be created. Instead of the T-shaped, flexible frame but also simpler frames can be used. However, it is also possible to use rigid frames (for example made of sheet metal or metal foil) in connection with the invention.

The lightweight wall or a corresponding floor area is thus reliably protected from moisture.

Advantageously, the sealing tape is at least partially made of flexible material. This allows the sealing band to move the tub, e.g. by soil subsidence due to shrinkage or warp of the screeds or underlay floors, give, without the ceramic tiles (tiles) forming the wall covering are damaged. The tightness is not affected when yielding such an elastic material.

Depending on requirements, a sealing strip according to the invention can be produced at least partially from plastic, from textile materials and / or metal foils and / or sheet metal. The choice of material for such a sealing tape depends on the particular application and can be adjusted accordingly. The sealing tape can preferably be cut on site and thus adapted in every situation. The sealing tape together with Zargenband (eg a T-shaped flexible or rigid Zargenband) can also be delivered as a prefabricated kit (prefabricated). For the fixation of the sealing tape on the end wall or on the floor gluing is preferred. Care must be taken that the sealing tape lies as flat as possible against the corresponding surface of the end wall or the floor. Instead of gluing the sealing tape but can also be screwed, riveted, welded, vulcanized, stapled, or fixed with an adhesive strip or with liquid plastic.

In the case of an adhesive fixation of the sealing tape, the use of a self-adhesive tape is recommended. In this way, the sealing tape is particularly easy to handle. It can be fixed to the installation site by pressing firmly against the end wall or floor. However, it is also conceivable other adhesive options, for example by means of an adhesive, i. with a mass applied to a back of the sealing tape or directly to the end wall or floor.

This fixation is mainly used to fix the sealing tape on the end wall until it is connected by the applied coating liquid intimately and tightly with the underlying end wall. Instead of subsequently applying such a coating liquid, the sealing tape or at least one upper region of the sealing tape can already be made ex works so that it is tight in itself.

In a further embodiment, the frame strap comprises a penetration strip.

The frame strap may also have one or two strips of, for example, thick soft material (preferably foam) to provide sound isolation between a bathtub or a shower and the wall or floor. Further advantages emerge directly from the description and the accompanying drawings.

In the following the invention will be described in detail by means of exemplary embodiments and with reference to the drawings. Show it :

The same or equivalent structural elements are provided in the figures with the same reference numerals, even if they differ from each other in part. Information such as above, below, right, left, front, back refer to the location of the so-called elements in the respective figures.

The various layers and components are not drawn to scale in the figures. Individual layers are emphasized to show their position and arrangement. A first embodiment of the invention is shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B. According to the invention, a kit 20 for the production of wall closures between built-in items, such as a bathtub 2, or a shower tray or other sanitary or kitchen utensil and an end wall 1 is used. The kit 20 includes a from the

Installation item 2 separate elongated Zargenband 6 for attachment between the installation object 2 and the end wall 1. The frame strip 6 in the illustrated embodiment has an approximately T-shaped cross-section with an angled upper strip 6.1 (shown in Fig. 1 light gray) in the assembled state, the Roof area in the assembled state is vertical and parallel to the end wall 1 rests and its legs (as the foot of the T's T-shaped cross section, which is perpendicular to the roof area) with a horizontal frame portion 2.2 of the bath 2 is glued. In addition, the frame strip 6 comprises a lower strip 6.2, which is more or less an extension of the roof area of the T and runs parallel to the end wall 1.

The lower strip 6.2 of the Zargenbandes 6 has at least one sealingly attached to the installation object 2 surface. In Fig. 1 is indicated by a dark gray strip 6.3 between the side facing away from the end wall 1 surface of the lower strip 6.2 and a parallel to the end wall 1 extending vertical surface 2.1 of the bath tub frame that there is an adhesive. But also on the underside of the leg of the upper angled strip 6.1, ie on the horizontal in the example shown underside, which rests on a horizontal surface 2.2 of the bath tub frame, an adhesive surface is present. The Zargenband 6 further has a connected to the legs of the upper angled strip 6.1 back-feeding section 8, which runs parallel to the horizontal surface 2.2 of the bath tub frame in the example shown. According to the invention, the kit 20 additionally comprises a separate from the installation item 2 elongated sealing strip 10 for attachment to the end wall 1. This sealing strip 10 has a water-impermeable overlap strip 10.2, which merges into a Durchdringungsstreifen 10.1. The overlap strip 10.2 and the penetration strip 10.1 can be seen in FIGS.

As indicated in Fig. IA, after the mounting of the Zargenbandes 6 (or another frame, such as a rigid frame) on the bath 2 and after against the end wall 1 places the bath 2, the sealing tape 10 are fixed to the end wall 1 , Care is taken to ensure that the water-impermeable overlap strip 10.2 partially overlaps the roof area of the upper strip 6.1 of the T-shaped frame 6, as indicated in FIGS. 1A and 1B. The penetration strip 10.1, however, lies flat against the end wall 1 and is covered and impregnated with the coating liquid 13 in this particular embodiment. In the region 21 of the penetration strip 10.1, the penetration through a black-and-white dashed area is illustrated in FIG. 1A. FIG. 1B shows the region 21 as a diamond-shaped region.

In a preferred embodiment, the sealing tape 10 on a

Rear side 11 (FIGS. 2 and 3), which rests against the end wall 1 in the assembled state, has an adhesive surface 10. 3 or an adhesive in order to be able to fix the sealing tape 10 at least temporarily to the end wall 1. Thus, the entire handling is simplified, since the sealing tape 10 can be easily covered or rolled over after fixing with the coating liquid 13.

The sealing tape 10 and / or the frame tape 6 may also be temporarily attached to the wall or floor with tape or other fasteners (such as screws, nails, rivets, glue, etc.) to bridge the time until then eg tiles are laid. The sealing tape 10 and / or the frame strip 6 may also be provided with means (eg, sealing strips) to provide a tight connection to a wall or floor.

In another embodiment (not shown), the sealing tape 10 on a back 11, which rests in the mounted state on the upper strip 6.1 of the frame strip 6, an adhesive surface or an adhesive. In addition, or alternatively, the frame strip 6 can have an adhesive surface or adhesive on the upper strip 6.1 in order to be able to fix the sealing strip 10 at least temporarily to the frame strip 6.

According to a further embodiment of the invention, the kit additionally comprises a suitable brushable or rollable coating liquid 13, which is designed so that it penetrates after fixing the sealing strip 10 on the end wall 1 by sweeping or rolling over the penetration strip 10.1 this and a sealing connection to the end wall 1 or the floor generated. In addition, the coating liquid 13 is designed to protect the lightweight wall 1 or the floor from ingress of water. Preferably, the coating liquid 13 fills the pores of the wall 1 or the floor and seals the wall 1 or the floor with a water-repellent protective layer.

Preferably, the coating liquid 13 used is a combination of a primer and a paintable liquid film.

Particularly preferred is an embodiment in which the overlap strip 10.2 is dimensioned so that it overlaps the upper strip 6.1 of the frame strip 6 from above in the mounted state, so that moisture that runs down the end wall 1 over the Penetration strip 10.1 and the overlap strip 10.2 from the end wall 1 away on a side facing away from the end wall 1 outside of the upper strip 6.1 passes.

The back-feeding section 8 serves, on the one hand, for sound insulation between the wall covering plate 11 (for example a tile or a glass plate) and the rim 2. It additionally serves as the basis for a sealing joint and as a spacer for the wall covering plates 11 during their laying. The back-feeding section 8 may have an extension which, as a protective strip, protects the tub rim 2 against contamination and damage during assembly. This extension of the back-feeding section 8 can be removed at a pre-perforated position after laying the wall covering plates 11.

Partial steps of the production of a wall termination according to the invention can be seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, wherein FIG. 2 shows a first embodiment and FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the invention. Similarly, a conclusion can be made against a floor.

First, the frame strip 6 is glued to the vertical bows 2.1. Then, the back-feeding portion 8 is placed or glued with a part of the upper strip 6.1 on the horizontal tub edge 2.2. The adhesive bond of a portion of the backfill portion 8 should not sit too tightly here if the front part of the backfill portion 8 is to serve as a protective strip 10 and later separated at the mentioned pre-perforated position.

Now the sealing tape 10 is fixed to the end wall 1. This can be done by peeling off a protective film 10.4 on the back 11 of the sealing tape 10 in order to expose an adhesive strip 10.3. In Fig. 2 are later to be swept or impregnated Durchdringungsstreifen 10.1 and Overlap strip 10.2. indicated. The penetrating strip 10.1 and the overlapping strip 10.2 may both be made of the same material, with at least the overlap strip 10.2 being specially impregnated to prevent passage of water. The penetration strip 10.1 is intentionally unimpregnated in a preferred embodiment, so that the coating liquid 13 reaches the underlying wall 1 through the penetration strip 10.1 and connects to it. Particularly preferred is a penetration strip 10.1, which is porous, absorbent or even holey (for example, reticulated).

In Fig. 3, an embodiment is shown in which the penetration strip 10.1 is in the form of a porous gauze or other porous strip. The coating with the coating liquid 13 is indicated in Fig. 3 by a brush 12. Now the wall covering plates 11 are attached. After completion of the

Wandbelags the optional front portion of the back-feeding section 8 can be torn off and pulled away. The back-feeding section 8 now serves as a basis for a sealing joint as a primary seal, e.g. made of silicone material.

Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. There is a separate from the installation item 2 elongated Zargenband 6 is used, which is arranged between the installation object 2 and the end wall 1. In the assembled state, the frame strip 6 has a parallel to the end wall 1 extending lower strip 6.2, which has a sealingly attached to the installation object 2 surface. For fixing the Zargenbands 6 on a vertical surface 2.1 of the trough 2, an adhesive strip or adhesive material, which is indicated in Fig. 4 as a dark gray strip 6.3, can be used. By this strip 6.3, the frame strip 6 can be glued to the tub 2 and there is no water along the frame portion 2.2 of the bath 2 to run back between the frame and wall 1. In addition, a separate from the installation item 2 is an elongated Sealing tape 10 is used, which may be attached to the end wall 1, as indicated schematically in Fig. 4. This sealing tape 10 has a water-impermeable overlap strip 10.2, which merges into an upper area indicated by a penetration strip 10.1. This penetration strip 10.1 is in the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 in itself tight, which means that also the upper portion of the sealing tape 10 does not pass water. The Durchdringungsstreifen 10.1 can be glued to the wall 1, screwed, welded, firmly stapled, or firmly riveted.

At the lower end of the sealing tape 10 is a back-feeding section 8

Attached, which runs at right angles. This back-feeding section 8 can be glued to the horizontal region 2.2 of the frame of the bathtub 2. The tiles 11 are then bonded to the wall 1 and the top of the sealing tape 10 with a conventional tile adhesive not shown in the figures.

In Fig. 4 it is shown that the bottom tile 11 rests or is seated on the back-feeding section 8. Now, if you tear off the back-feeding section 8 in the area of the perforation 8.1, then a piece of the back-feeding section 8 remains under the tile 11. The result is a kind of groove that can be filled with a joint material (for example silicone).

Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. There is a separate from the installation item 2 elongated Zargenband 6 is used, which is arranged between the installation object 2 and the end wall 1. This Zargenband 6 can be rigid or flexible. The frame strip 6 is glued in a designated 6.3 area against the installation item 2, where it ensures a watertight connection. The designated 6.2 strip of the Zargenbandes 6 extends in height further upwards than in the other embodiments. In the upper part, which is indicated in Fig. 5 with X. is, the Zargenband 6 may have a Durchdringungsstreifen, which can be treated as in the sealing strip. The Zargenband can also be attached to the other means mentioned on the wall 1, or on a floor. The sealing strip 10 runs parallel to the frame strip in this embodiment. Either Zargenband 6 and sealing tape in the area X can be attached to each other, or the sealing tape is attached by, for example, the tiles 11 are glued. As in the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the back-feeding section 8 is fastened to the sealing strip 10 and not to the frame strip 6 in the embodiment according to FIG.

In a further embodiment, the frame band 6 and the sealing tape 10 are joined together, i. the two elements are not supplied individually, to be then connected to each other during installation.

In Fig. 6 an embodiment is shown which additionally comprises an insulating strip 6.4 (e.g., a foam strip) which provides sound isolation to the wall 1. This insulating strip 6.4 may be disposed on the outside (i.e., on the wall side) or on the inside (e.g., between the strip 6.2 and the strip 6.3).

The inventive kit (at least comprising the frame strip 6 and the sealing strip 10) allows a fast, trouble-free and reliable sealing of all possible sanitary and kitchen installations against an end wall. This invention is particularly suitable for use in dry construction in kitchens, bathrooms, swimming pools, but also in industrial environments where moisture could eventually penetrate drywall or soils.

Only the combination of a flexible frame 6 and the sealing tape 10 described together with a suitable coating liquid 13 results in a satisfactory and easy sealing. Instead of the Coating liquid 13, however, can also be used other fastening means as described.

All parts can be pre-assembled or individually assembled and / or assembled on site.
