2. It is composed of a bottom plate, both side plates, a rear plate, and a ceiling plate.
A unit box having a rear plate and a ceiling plate that can be disassembled; a heat source unit that has a shower hose connection port and is configured to be freely assembled into the unit box; A shower unit comprising a shower booth which is opposed to the fully opened front side and whose facing surface is fully opened and which can be united with the unit box.

3. 3. The shower unit according to 1 or 2 above, which is prepared by providing a storage unit that can be freely installed in the unit box.

4. 4. The shower unit according to 1 or 2 or 3, wherein the shower head is mounted in a unit box.

5. 3. The shower unit according to 2 above, wherein the shower head is installed in a shower booth.

6. 6. The shower unit according to 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 above, which is formed by forming a lighting / ventilation window on a ceiling plate of a unit box.

[0017]

In the shower unit, the unit box is such that the bottom plate, the side plates, the rear plate, and the ceiling plate are all disassembled to the site and assembled there. After assembling the unit box, the heat source unit and the storage unit are incorporated therein. After the assembly is completed in this way, the front side of the unit box is set on the fully open surface of the shower booth, and the shower head is united using the connecting tool. The heat source unit and the storage unit may have a waterproof structure, or a waterproof cover may be attached to the outside of the heat source unit and the storage unit for waterproofing. Alternatively, a waterproof curtain may be attached between the unit box and the shower booth. A shower hose extending from the shower head is connected to the shower hose connection port formed in the heat source unit.

[0018]

1 is a perspective view showing a state in which a heat source unit and a storage unit are incorporated in a unit box according to the present invention, FIG.
Is a front view. In these drawings, 10 is a unit box, and this unit box 10 is composed of a bottom plate 11, side plates 12, a ceiling plate 13, and a rear plate 14, each of which is assembled at a construction site. 15 is the front which is fully open. 16 is a daylighting and ventilation window provided on the ceiling plate 13, 17 is a unit box
It is a shower head hanging on the 10 side.

Reference numeral 18 denotes a heat source device unit incorporated in the unit box 10. The heat source device unit 18 is freely installable, and its operating portion is provided in the unit box 10. 19 is a shower hose connection port that connects the heat source unit 18 and the shower head 23, and 20 is a storage unit such as a towel and a bathrobe incorporated in the unit box 10. -A variety of small and different shapes are available and can be selected and combined arbitrarily.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state in which the unit box 10 and the shower booth 21 are combined, and the set surface 22 of the shower booth 21 is fully opened, and this surface 22 and the front surface 15 of the unit box 10 are shown. Together, the unit box 10 and the shower booth 21 are fixed by fixing means such as bolts, and a shower hose 24 extending from a shower head 23 is connected to the connection port 19, and a water supply pipe, a gas pipe, etc. are further provided on the heat source unit 18 side. Then, the drainage port of the shower booth 21 is connected to the drainage pipe, and the construction is completed. In the figure, 24 is a door at the entrance of the shower booth 21.

Incidentally, it goes without saying that a watertight structure is provided by interposing a waterproof packing at the connecting portion between the unit box 10 and the shower booth 21.

[0022]

The effects of the present invention are as follows.

A. The unit box can be brought into the field and assembled, and the heat source unit is simply incorporated into this box to be combined with the shower booth, so no hot water supply piping is required. As a result, there are no problems in piping work.

B. A shower can be installed even when there is no space to install the heat source unit outdoors.

C. The heat source unit and the storage unit in the box can be set or replaced arbitrarily. As a result, it is possible to select and install a heat source unit or a storage unit that meets the usage conditions.

D. Since there is no hot water supply pipe, there is no worry of water leakage.

E. A storage space for towels, bathrobes, etc. can be secured.

F. By providing a daylighting / ventilation window on the ceiling of the unit box, the interior of the shower booth can be brightened and ventilated.
