Description

A method of installing a bath body, a bath body and a bath holder mounted in a bath holder

Technical field

The invention relates to a method of installing a bathtub body, for example a bathtub or shower tray, which is housed in a bath holder. The invention further relates to a bath body of a supported bath body, for example a bath tub or shower tray, the bath holder consisting of a base and an additional part of the bath holder, and the bath holder.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A method of this kind is the subject of German Offenlegungsschrift No. 198 47 910. It is based on the principle of the structural addition of the parts constituting the bath holder, whereby the additional bath holder part, possibly together with the bath body, is precisely fitted to the bath holder base. The base of the bath holder is possibly connected to the floor of the room after the exact placement and pre-installation. The assembled tub holder is made of a particulate foam such as EPS or EPP. This has the advantage of having a plurality of modifications to the bath-holder base, which requires a number of adjustments during installation, in that the overlaps or necessary passages towards the base surface, i.e. to the floor, can be easily cut or cut by hand. Since a large number of sanitary installations are carried out in the renovation of existing buildings, too much material may be removed from the base of the tub holder during such work, for example due to existing pipelines and the like, which may adversely affect the stability of the whole.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of installing a bath holder in which high stability of the bath holder would be achieved without abandoning the advantages of the basic principle and which would be well usable even under the unfavorable conditions described.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The above-mentioned drawbacks of the known solutions are largely overcome and the object of the present invention is to solve the problem of installing a bathtub, for example a bathtub or shower tray, which is housed in a bath holder according to the invention. which is provided with separate foot feet in the form of legs, and then the bath body, which is already connected to an additional part, completing the base in the bath holder, is mounted on the base of the bath holder. By maintaining the principle of installation according to the prior art, the unevenness of the base surface, i.e. the floor, can thus be optimally compensated by the already established pedestal with the base feet. The leveling of the pedestal can be easily achieved by lightly supporting it or by shortening the pedestals adequately. It is no longer necessary to perform extensive trimming or pruning of the base. Thanks to the pedestal feet of the pedestal, there is also a sufficient free space under the pedestal, which is easily accessible from all sides. It is also possible to respect already laid pipes. Fixing can be carried out quickly in place with setting foam and measures can also be taken to prevent the spread of noise.

Furthermore, it is advantageous to proceed in such a way that the complementary part of the tub holder is formed by surrounding the tub body with foam. In this way, the complementary part of the tub holder is immediately adjacent to the tub body, irrespective of the dimensions of the tub body.

Furthermore, it has proved to be advantageous if the bath holder is divided into two parts parallel to the open side of the bath body, the upper part being provided as an additional part of the bath holder fixedly connected to the bath body and the lower part provided as a pedestal. In this way, optimum possibilities of handling both the upper part and the lower part are achieved, even during their mutual assembly.

In addition, it is also advantageous if the complementary part of the bath-holder is connected precisely to the base. In this respect, for example, joining by means of dowel pins can be considered.

In addition, it is also advantageous if the additional part of the bath holder is formed by enclosing the bath body, which in this case serves as the mold core, with foam.

Said surround of the bath body with foam is preferably carried out while leaving an opening in the region of the overflow connection. Said opening in the accessory part of the bath holder will later allow the installation of an overflow pipe. A corresponding recess is also provided in the base of the bath holder.

The invention also relates to a bath body, for example a bathtub or shower tray, arranged in a bath holder, the bath holder consisting of a base and an additional part of the bath holder, characterized in that the bath holder base is provided with separate foot-shaped feet. provided with sideways arranged passages for connecting the pipes. These passages may be formed by free spaces between the base feet. The pedestal is therefore designed in a manner such as the B method. toothed wall.

Thus, the base of the bath-holder is open in the region of the base feet, for example for the ducting.

The stability and accessibility of the bath holder is further advantageously increased by the fact that the base of the bath holder is formed by a lattice grille. The openings in the lattice are through.

The bath holder base in combination of the bath holder and the bath holder base comprises a circumferential rectangular frame.

This rectangular frame, which corresponds to conventional bath tubs, can still be reinforced by diagonal struts, which give the rectangular frame sufficient resistance to possible forces with a tendency to twist the rectangular frame diagonally.

A similar measure may also be that the rectangular frame is reinforced by transverse struts that run freely parallel to the narrow sides of the rectangular frame.

The elements of the rectangular frame and / or strut are preferably formed by angular profiles.

In the basic version, the structure is designed so that the angular profiles are facing downwards and towards the inside of the rectangular frame with their open sides.

One advantageous variant, however, is that the angular profiles are turned upwards towards the inside of the rectangular frame with their open sides, which can then be utilized. 9 9 9 9 9

9 9 9 9 9 9 9 ·· · · to enclose the optional accessory part of the bath holder.

One solution, even with a separate meaning, is that the elements of the rectangular frame and / or strut are formed by box profiles.

Furthermore, it is proposed that the profiles are made of plastic and reinforced if necessary.

Another advantageous installation improvement of the rectangular frame is that there are support struts running in the transverse and / or longitudinal direction for components such as a siphon bracket and a holder for an inlet or drain pipe or a through duct.

These support struts may be formed by double rails which serve to guide the bearing element, for example for a siphon. A preferred embodiment is described in the aforementioned German Patent Application No. 198 47 910.

On the other struts, on the other hand, arcuate sections are formed to form connecting channels for the waste pipe or other pipe.

It is furthermore advantageous if the support feet are of an adjustable height and on the upper side of the rectangular frame there are coaxially arranged pins with them, which fit into the recess of the additional part of the bath holder. In this way, the parts of the bath holder can be connected in a precise alignment.

One of the advantageous embodiments of the bath holder also consists in that the recesses are formed by the beveled edge of the complementary bath holder. The angled arm of the angular profile protrudes into this recess as a projection. The rectangular frame then acts as a framing of the complementary part of the bath holder, which rests on the horizontal second angular arm.

One further embodiment of the bath holder, which even has a separate meaning, consists in that the lattice frame structure of the rectangular frame is designed as three-dimensional. The length and width are then increased.

This is already utilized in the production process so that interfaces for connection with the installation of the wall are arranged on the base of the bath holder.

Said interface may comprise a fastening element which is arranged in the base of the bath holder. These may be anchor bolts.

Another possibility is that the interface is formed by a nut that extends beyond the plan view of the base of the bath holder.

The invention also relates to a bath holder, in particular formed from a particulate foam such as EPS or EPP, characterized by a three-dimensional lattice structure with connecting interfaces for interconnection with a wall installation or for direct connection of sanitary elements such as toilet bowls and bidets or the like.

It is possible for the rectangular frame to be composed of C-profiles. These C-profiles, with their stability, are close to the casing profile and in doing so they create the basic prerequisites for access in the transverse direction, i.e. into their slotted openings, thus allowing further measures,

9 99999

9999 9 9 <· «· 9 9 9 for example, mounting parts.

Advantageously, the C-profiles are turned downward through their slotted openings, i.e. to the floor of the room.

A modular design of the bath holder is also advantageous in that the C-profiles are connected to each other by connecting pieces which are provided with plug pins. This solution allows space-saving storage and transport. The rectangular frame is then assembled on site. However, it is advantageous if the pre-assembly of the rectangular frame is already carried out during production or in the workshop.

Also the connecting pieces can be adapted to different shapes of rectangular frames. In addition to straight connecting pieces for C-profiles, connection pieces can be used whose plug pins form an angle of less than 180 ° to each other. This may be a right angle, or it may be plug pins forming an obtuse angle together. Even acute angles can be considered.

It is also advantageous that the connecting piece is designed as a T-piece with three or more plug pins. In this connection, it is possible to take into account the connection of the transverse struts, which allow the reinforcement of the rectangular frame and additionally also the attachment of various components.

In order to secure the plug connections, it is suitable if the coupling piece and / or the C-profile are provided with snap-in lugs and snap-in recesses. It is preferred that these are non-detachable latching elements, so that the plug connection does not require additional elements such as

- 8 cotter pins, gluing, welding or the like. The use of a stripping device is preferred. For this purpose, a slotted-head screw can be inserted into the slot opening of the C-profile, on which blades or teeth are formed from below to secure the screw. The wing heads are located on the underside of the C-profiles and do not interfere with the mounting of the bath holder.

The advantage of the slotted holes and thus of the transverse direction approach can also be utilized in that the height-adjustable and the longitudinally displaceable and per se continuous adjustable feet are mounted in the C-profiles. These base feet, substantially in the form of legs or columns, can be continuously displaced and positioned, for example, in the corner regions of the rectangular frame. The optimally adjustable and displaceable base feet can be similarly attached to the transverse struts of the rectangular frame.

In this case, it is advantageous if the base foot abuts the floor over a plastic or rubber mat, which reduces the transmission of noise.

A further advantageous improvement is that the base foot is provided with a base plate with through holes for attachment to the floor. Conventional fasteners, such as screws, may be used.

Another advantageous embodiment of the bath holder, even with a separate meaning, is that the bath holder is provided with a cover for the wall tiles which form the base for the installation of the wall tiles in the region of the pedestal.

The tile apron is attached to the pedestal, preferably using slotted holes in the C-profiles.

• · * ·

In particular, this can be done in such a way that the tile apron extends into the C-profile for attachment.

It is advantageous if the apron for tiles has a Y-shaped cross-section. This profile, which resembles the letter h, has a stop on the C-profile side which prevents it from being refuted.

One of the preferred embodiments of the bath-holder or of the additional bath-holder part consists in that the apron for the wall tiles consists of a foam part, in particular a particulate foam.

The base of the bath holder is preferably designed as a foam board, in particular as a rigid foam board or plastic. Particle foam with a high degree of compaction is preferred.

In this case too, C-profiles can be used, which are embedded in the pedestal with slotted openings downwards. These Cprofiles also act as reinforcements here, regardless of whether they are made of metal or hard plastic. They are embedded or mounted in a pedestal so that their slotted openings are freely accessible.

In addition, it is advantageous if the base is provided in its central region with longitudinally or transversely arranged rectangular openings for the installation of the pipeline. The foam board then has the form of a frame.

In another embodiment of the pedestal, the pedestal has a telescopically adjustable width and length, taking over or partially utilizing the elements described above. This allows the pedestal to be adapted to the various types and shapes of bathtubs · ♦♦ · • ♦

Těles ·· bodies. The guide elements of the telescopic joints consist of rectangular frame profiles into which the sliding elements are inserted.

One embodiment of the bath holder, which even has a separate meaning, consists in that the base comprises a central, longitudinally extending part of the bath holder or bath body extending a frame part which is narrower than the additional part of the bath holder or bath body, In addition, the pedestal is provided at the narrow sides of the complementary part of the bath-holder or bath-body with extension arms, which are provided with supporting feet on their hips. In this way, it is possible to support the base even outside the bathtub floor plan. The pedestal then has a double T-shape as a whole and, in addition to vertical passages, also stepped open vertical passages are formed therein. As a result, the pipeline can be laid outside this floor plan while maintaining good accessibility, if it is needed for some reason.

The extension arms are telescopically adjustable in their longitudinal direction and, in addition, continuously adjustable and fixed.

Finally, an advantageous embodiment of the bath-holder also consists in that the frame elements are provided with vertically upwardly projecting angular arms which can be used as abutment stops for the complementary part of the bath-holder to be inserted or replace the pins described above.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The illustrated bath holder has at least a two-piece construction consisting of an upper part and a lower part.

The upper part is formed by a bath body 1, which is at least partially connected to the additional part 2 of the bath holder by foaming. It may be a fixed connection. The foaming material is preferably a particulate foam such as EPP or EPS. It is also possible to use the insertion of the bath body 1 and the complementary part 2 of the bath holder. The bottom part consists of the base 3 of the bath holder. The base 3 rests on the floor 4 of the room and can be firmly connected to the floor 4.

The base feet 5 extend from the bottom of the base 3, due to which a gap remains between this bottom side of the base 3 and the floor 4.

The feet 5 are distributed in a balanced manner. These are total

• · ♦ - ♦ - · · » • · «« * F • • · • · · • • • • · • · • • • · • • ♦ • • • ♦ • • · • ·· ··

Nine foot feet 5. A ninth foot feet 5 is arranged at the crossing point of the diagonals of the rectangular frame 6 forming the pedestal 3. The other foot feet 5 are spaced circumferentially.

The rectangular frame 6 is part of the lattice structure of the pedestal 3. The diagonally struts 7 which reinforce the rectangular frame 6 are shown in Fig. 4. These diagonally struts 7 terminate in the corners of the pedestal 3.

The variants in Figs. 7, 9 and 11 differ from the basic version in Fig. 4 by the transverse struts 8. Two transverse struts 8 are used, which divide the truss structure into thirds and thus provide well-spaced reinforcement and stability of the rectangular frame 6.

It can be seen from the depictions of the pedestals 3 that they are open in the areas between the pedestals 5. Between the pedestals 5 there remain openings 9 defined by the floor 4, which allow good access from all sides to the mounting chambers 10 of the bath holder and to the underside of the bath holder in general. Due to these passages 9, the pipe 11 can be connected. Access from the side of the bath body 1 is made possible by an opening 12 which is arranged in the overflow connection area where the foaming of the bath body 1 is incomplete or interrupted.

When making the bath-holder base 3 of the same material from which the additional bath-holder part 2 is made, the base feet 5 can be formed by protrusions integral with the base 3, which can be supported or shortened by cutting to adjust the required height.

The illustrated truss structure of the pedestal 3 is preferably

- 16 9 «♦ · made of metal. The pedestals 5 of this pedestal 3 have a variable length in the vertical direction. The supporting part of the foot 5 is the head of the screw 14, which is screwed into the thread in the foot 5, which is hollow. The entire length of the bolt 14 is preferably used for adjusting the base foot 5 so that the gap between the base 3 and the floor 4 is variable to a large extent.

For efficient sound insulation, the heads of the bolts 14 are supported by a soft foam washer 15. This means for optimizing sound insulation may cover the entire surface of the rectangular frame 6.

The accessory part 2 of the bath holder and the base 3 can be fitted exactly. This is done by means of positioning means, which are projections on the base 3 of the bath holder, in the basic version of the pins 16. In the vertical direction from the upper side of the rectangular frame 6, the projecting pins 16 precisely fit into the corresponding recesses 17 in alignment with the pins 16 formed at the edge of the underside of the additional part 2 of the bath holder.

As can be seen, for example, in FIG. 4, the pins 16 on the upper side of the rectangular frame 6 represent a coaxial continuation of the support feet 5. The only exception is the support foot 5 which is arranged on the underside of the diagonal strut crossings. a direct support of the bottom wall 18 of the additional part 2 of the bath-holder, which also applies to the free-running sections of diagonal struts 7 which cross each other in the shape of an X.

The variant with a shape-precise plug connection between the accessory part 2 of the bath bracket and the pedestal 3 is described in more detail below.

- 17 ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti 10 and 11.

The individual elements or parts of the rectangular frame 6 and / or the diagonal struts 7 or the transverse struts 8 can be formed from angles whose arms form a right angle to each other. This is used for the elements of the rectangular frame 6. The diagonally struts 7 or the transverse struts 8 are formed by flat metal strips.

With respect to the position of the angle profiles, two different arrangements are used. In the basic version according to FIG. 4, these angle profiles, which consist of a rectangular frame 6, are opened downwardly and inwardly of the rectangular frame 6. The horizontal legs and the angle profiles thus form the receiving upper side of the base 3 and the outer vertical legs b of the angle profiles forms a kind of edge apron.

This construction is also adopted in the variant according to FIG. 7.

On the other hand, the arrangement shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 is different. In this case, the angular profiles of the rectangular frame 6 are opened upwards and their horizontal arms are directed radially inwards. The vertical arms b, which in the previous embodiments formed a skirt, form a circumferential elevation, while the horizontal arms and angular profiles here form a bearing upper side on which the lower region of the complementary part 2 of the bath holder can be slid between the vertical arms b.

In this way, a base is provided for the above-mentioned other method of plug-in connection between the complementary part 2 of the bath holder and the base 3. In this case, the pins 16 are replaced by a shoulder

the upper part, i.e. the complementary part 2, which is therefore also indicated by the reference numeral 16. In this sense, the horizontal arms and the angular profiles represent the recesses 17 formed on the base 3.

In order to prevent the vertical legs b of the angular profiles from protruding from the main carcass of the bathtub part 2, which could complicate the lining of the tiles, the recess 17 is formed in FIG.

FIG. 9 shows a variant of the pedestal 3 in which the elements or arms of the rectangular frame 6 are formed from box profiles. These may be closed box profiles of plastic, which are commonly used in window production. The box profiles may comprise reinforcements, for example metal inserts.

The truss structure of the base 3 of the bath holder is further densified by additional elements which cross and divide the grid fields laterally. This phenomenon of the rectangular frame 6 is carried out in the transverse and / or longitudinal direction by supporting struts for various components, for example for the siphon holder 20, which is shown separately in Fig. 5, for the pipe holder 21, for example Passage pipe (not shown). Their meaning will be explained in more detail later.

The support struts are designed as double rails 22 which are arranged in a lattice field. On these double rails 22, the siphon holder 20 for the siphon 23 can be slidably positioned and fixed. The siphon holder 20 is made of foam of the aforementioned type and has a keyhole depression 24 which, in its shape and in its shape and depth, corresponds to a part of the siphon

- 19 ** 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 19 1 19 19

23, which is inserted in it. On the siphon holder 20, wings 25 are formed on its longitudinal sides, which are thinner than the area of the siphon holder 20 in which the recess 24 is formed. In addition to the displacement of the siphon holder 20 in the double rail 22 The fine adjustment of the position of the siphon holder 20 is thus achieved, which, when assembling the parts of the bath holder, allows precise adjustment of the plug-in position of the drain pipe 26 of the drain and overflow kit 27. As shown in FIG. a free end acting as a plug of the effluent pipe 26 tightly blind into the opening of the funnel-shaped diaphragm 28 in the siphon 23. In the contact area of the wings 25 and the double rail 22, an adhesive layer 29 is applied to ensure a suitable position of the siphon holder 20 The rail 22 is guided in the manner of a slide. As can be seen from the drawings, the wings 25 in the assembled state extend below the double rail 22. The siphon holder 20 can also be made of metal in the embodiment of FIG. 31 and mounted in a hinge 19 on the double rail 22.

During assembly, the upper part, i.e. the bath body 1 with the additional part 2 of the bath holder, is placed downwards with the edge of the bath body 1. The drain pipe 26 connected to the bath body 1 serves only as an indicator for adjusting the position of the siphon holder 20, the bath holder base 3 being simply slid towards the floor 4 with its upper side. This is usually done in the factory or workshop.

Thereafter, the base 3 of the bath holder is turned to the correct position, i.e., it is placed on the floor 4 of the room. The base 3 is then aligned by means of the base feet 5.

Appropriate details are described in the above patent

application. The application therefore also includes the entire contents of that earlier application, even in order to incorporate the features of the earlier application into the claims of the application.

The double rails 22 are designed as yokes. Their bent ends in the same direction serve to grip the double rails 22 on the rectangular frame 6 and on the other side to the other support struts of the rectangular frame. The pipe supports 21 serve as struts 30 on which downwardly curved curved portions 31 are formed in front of their ends to which they are fastened. joints. The arc section 31 describes a cross-section of a groove that occurs in the bases of the tub holder made of hard particulate foam. The arcuate sections 31 are in alignment with each other in the longitudinal direction of the tub holder base 3, so that drain pipes can be reliably received therein in the lower region of the tub holder base 3. More such struts 30 may be used than shown.

The double rails 22, which are arranged in the middle field of the lattice-shaped pedestal 3, extend transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plan view of the rectangular pedestal 3. This area is reserved for the central connection of the drain or drain and overflow connections.

In the embodiment according to FIG. 15, the truss structure of the base 3 of the bath-holder moves into a third dimension, here in the vertical direction. For this purpose, a cross member 32 is provided at the right end of the base 3. This is a sheet metal structure which, in conjunction with the installation of the wall, allows a stable attachment of the vertical frame 33. The wall is described in German Patent Application Publication No. 198 44.

509, the contents of which are incorporated herein, even in order to incorporate the features of this earlier application into the claims of the application.

The connecting region of the vertical frame 33 on the side of the cross-member 32 represents an interface S. The fixing means 34 are arranged on the cross-member 32. For example, the screws 35 are arranged horizontally and spaced one above the other. In this way, an operationally reliable connection of the vertical frame 33 is ensured. The arms of the vertical frame 33 are clamped on both sides by nuts.

The cross-member 32 can also continue in the form of a basket by stiffening the complementary part 2 of the bath holder. This stiffener, except for the connecting flange to the vertical frame 33, is completely embedded in the foamed structure.

On the other hand, it is also possible to use a structure, not shown in the drawings, in which the interface S is designed as a nut extending beyond the contour of the base 3 of the bath holder. In this case, it is sufficient to screw in the respective fastening screws from the front side of the vertical frame 33, with the possibility of inserting spacers.

16 and 17 show further details of the installation of this wall, i.e. the sink 7 connected there to the siphon 36, the drain line 37 and the two supply lines 38, 39 for cold and hot water. There are no connection pipes to the sources or waste of the building. The large space under the base 3 of the bath holder makes it easy to guide these pipes.

It should also be mentioned that the vertical frame 33 can be adjusted to the floor 4 of the room by means of the adjusting spindles 40 and to the ceiling. · ···· ·· ·· · ·

- 22 41 to secure the room with adjusting spindles 42. Frames 6 and 33 are lined with removable insulating material 43. In order to access the mounting chamber 10 through the vertical frame 33, the insulating material 43 is divided. Fig. 17 shows a removable cover 44.

This embodiment also comprises a bath holder, preferably made of a particulate foam such as EPS or EPP, which features a trussed three-dimensional reinforcement structure comprised of a pedestal 3 and a vertical frame 33, provided with a connection interface S for wall installation or direct mounting. the attachment of sanitary elements such as a toilet bowl or bidet, which can be fastened directly in the region of the cross-member 32 without the intermediate vertical frame 33.

Another improvement shown in Figures 18 to 27 relates to a pedestal 3 in which rectangular frame 6 is provided with Cprofiles 45. This embodiment is structurally similar to the variant of Figure 9 in which box profiles are used. The necessary reference numerals are used in this sense, in part without repeating the description in the text.

The C-profiles 45 may be of metal. However, it is also conceivable to manufacture them from plastic, in both cases preferably by extrusion.

In contrast to the embodiment according to FIG. 9, the base 3 of the bath holder in the embodiment according to FIG. 24 consists of a plurality of interconnected C-profiles 45, with two transverse struts 8 used to reinforce the rectangular frame. . The transverse struts 8 extend parallel to the shorter sides of the base 3.

The longitudinal slot opening 46 in section of the symmetrical C-profile 45 is opened downwards, i.e. to the floor 4 of the room.

The C-profiles 45 of approximately one third of the length of the rectangular frame 6 can be joined in the desired shape of the rectangular frame 6 by connecting pieces 47. This is done by insertion. The C-profile cavity 45 is used as an insertion opening which is accessible from the front. The connecting pieces 47 are provided with corresponding pin pins 48, which are formed directly on the connecting piece 47. This may be injection-molded metal or plastic castings.

In the embodiment of FIG. 18, the coupling piece 47 is provided with coaxially aligned plug pins 48 spaced apart from one another.

FIG. 20 shows an embodiment in which the plug pins 48 of the coupling piece 47 are at right angles to each other. This corner connection piece 47 is used to connect the C-sections 45 at the corners of the rectangular frame 6.

FIG. 21 shows a variation in that the plug pins 48 form an obtuse angle with each other, e.g. 135 °, 120 ° and so on. Special geometric shapes such as corner baths, shower trays with bevelled corners and the like can be realized.

FIG. 22 shows a T-shaped coupling piece 47 which allows the connection of two C-shaped profiles 45 which form a rectangular frame 6 in a straight line with each other. The coupling piece 47 is further provided with a transversely horizontal plug pin 48 for the aforementioned. crossmember 8. Can • · · ·

a coupling piece 47 provided with more than three pinned pins 48, for example a coupling piece 47 in the shape of an H or a double T, is used to mount the frame in a horizontal or vertical direction, in particular to mount the vertical frame 33 of the wall.

The connecting piece 47 with the three plug pins 48 is provided in the area of the intersection of the plug pins 48 with an extension 49, but the ends of the C-profiles 45 abut, so that the cross section of the rectangular frame 6 runs continuously on the outside. In fact, the end ends of the C-profiles 45 cannot contact each other directly when planar cutting, because insertion is prevented by a plug pin 48 projecting into the transverse strut 8. The increase in material thickness at the crossing point, i.e. extension 49 corresponds to so pure connection. The front end of the C-profile 45, which forms the transverse strut 8, abuts at the top and bottom of the side 49 'of the extension 49 and in addition to the outer sides of the C-profiles 45 forming the rectangular frame 6. The extension 49 simultaneously defines the insertion depth. also on the connecting piece 47 according to FIG. 18.

The continuous plug connection thus obtained can be secured. This can be done with glue. According to an exemplary embodiment, however, it is preferable that the connecting pieces 47 or C-profiles 45 are provided with latching means which in the exemplary embodiment are designed so that the ends of the C-profiles 45 are provided with protruding latching projections in the C-profile 45. projections 50 which engage the snap-in recesses 51 in the plug pins 48. These snap-in recesses 51 may be formed, for example, by blind holes. In the insertion direction, these latching means, i.e. latching lugs 50 and latching recesses 51, are provided.

25 are arranged one behind the other and are preferably designed such that the plug connection is non-detachable.

Such latching means, i.e. latching lugs 50 and latching recesses 51, can also be formed in the corner regions of the rectangular frame 6. With the respective connecting pieces 47, the aforementioned extension 49 can also be envisaged, which at the same time constitutes an unplugged free region. This corner connection piece 47 has a dual function.

However, it is also possible to use a joint with bevel-coupled C-profiles 45, whereby the connecting piece 47 fully fits into the interior spaces of the C-profiles 45.

The rectangular frame 6 is also provided in this case with support feet 5. Instead of a fixed position in the embodiment according to FIG. 24 et seq. An adjustable and fixable arrangement of these support feet 5 is provided. In addition to the height adjustment of the support feet 5 relative to the rectangular frame 6 here also the possibility of shifting the base feet 5 in the horizontal longitudinal direction.

For this purpose, a slot opening 46 of the C-profile 45 is used. The possibility of adjusting the position of the base feet 5 has proved to be advantageous in practice. In this way, if necessary, the width of the passages 9 of the base 3 of the bath holder can be varied. It will be appreciated that a relatively large slot aperture length 46 is available between the relatively short plug pins 48 for adjusting the position of the base feet 5. The direction of the adjustment is indicated by a two-way arrow.

Similarly, with respect to the load, it can be supported in suitable • 999 • 9 • 9 · 9 · «····· • 9 ······ • 9 99 9999999

9 9 9 9 9 ·

9999 99 ·· ··· transverse struts 8 can also be used.

The base feet 5 are threaded for continuous adjustment of their height, so that the screws 14, whose function has already been explained above, can also be referred to in terms of function. The same reference numeral is therefore adopted.

The screw 14 or threaded rod extends downwardly through the slot aperture 46. Inside the C-profile 45, a lock nut 52 is screwed onto it, which engages the horizontal end arm 53 of the C-profile 45.

A tightening nut 54 abuts the underside of the end arm 53. By loosening the tightening nut 54 and by turning the threaded rod, i.e. the screw 14, the height of the support foot 5 can be adjusted. The tightened nuts 52, 54 increase the rigidity of the C-profile 45 and its stability.

The screw 14 passes down into a head formed by a metal plate 55 which is provided with a plastic or rubber washer 56 on its underside for sound insulation. This washer 56 is rigidly connected to the metal plate 55.

The plastic or rubber pad 56 rests directly on the floor 4 of the room and is supported by a base plate 57 which is mounted on the pad 56. It may also be a metal plate provided with through holes 58 for fasteners to connect it to the floor. 4, for example screws.

FIG. 23 illustrates the use of the C-profile 45 for another purpose, i.e., to provide a substrate for tiles. This

the substrate is formed by a cover 59 for the wall tiles. The viewing side of the skirt 59 is substantially vertical. In this way, the passages 9 can be covered by the wall tiles and generally the entire area under the base 3 can be covered.

The cover apron 59 is formed on a two-sided cover profile on a C-profile 45. This cover profile is Y-shaped in accordance with FIG. 23. The first leg 60 of this cover profile is practically a continuation of a vertically oriented sheet-like apron 59. The second cover profile leg 61 extends as a Y-shaped cover profile leg extension 62, the second leg 61 extending below the C-profile 45 and abutting the side of the C-profile 45 with the slot 46 into which it engages the snap-in element 63.

For example, the latch member 63 may have the shape of a discontinuous bar and be designed as an arrowhead such that the trailing edges of the tip extend from the inside of the C-profile 45 to the edge of the slot aperture 46 between the end arms 53 of the C-profile 45. The first arm 60 of the cover profile fits, with its horizontal front end, to the upper side of the C-profile 45. It is sufficient if the snap-in element 63 has only one rear edge. It is even conceivable to simply clamp the latch member 63 without the rear edges in the slot opening 46.

The tile apron 59 is made of rigid foam. A particulate foam such as EPS or EPP is preferred for this purpose. The tiles can be attached to the apron 5 9 by a layer of adhesive mortar applied to the visible side of the apron 59.

In the variant of the pedestal 3 shown in Figures 26 and 27, a frame structure is also used, wherein the C-profiles 45 are used.

28 are connected to each other by means of a fastening material, which is carried out in such a way that they are embedded in a foam plate 64, in particular a rigid foam or plastic, at different places and positions. Preferably, an increased density particulate foam is used for this purpose. In this way, a lightweight sheet is obtained which forms a rectangular frame 6. The solution has the advantage of a high rigidity of the connection of the embedded C-profiles 45, which at the same time act as reinforcing elements.

The C-profiles 45 are also arranged here near the edges of the foam plate 64 and also in the transverse struts 8. It is understood that the slotted openings 46C of the profiles 45 face the floor. 4 and are provided with adjustable foot supports 5 for accessibility during assembly.

While in the variant of FIG. 24 it is assumed to use Cprofiles with a substantially square cross section, in the variant of FIGS. 26 and 27, C-sections 45 with a rectangular cross-section are used in the sense that the bottom of the C-section 45 has a greater width than The lateral legs extending in the same direction, which in the described manner pass into opposite end arms 53 of the profile 45 which define the slot aperture 46. Of course, also in the variant of FIG. 24, C-profiles 45 with a rectangular cross-section can be used.

The individual legs of the foam sheet 64, which form the rectangular frame 6, have a width that is several times the width of the C-sections 45, including the cross struts 8.

Rectangular apertures 65 are retained in plan view between the C-sections 45 that extend in the longitudinal and transverse directions. Rectangular apertures 65, which are located in the end regions &quot;, &quot; * * * * * * «« «

999 9 99 99 9 9999 of the rectangular frame 6 extend over their long sides in the longitudinal direction of the rectangular frame 6 or the foam plate 64. The intermediate rectangular opening 65, which is delimited by the transverse struts 8, extends transversely to the longitudinal direction of the foam plate 64. In this way, sufficient abutment surfaces are maintained in the central region of the foam plate 64 for either the conventional bath holder or the additional bath holder part 2 shown.

The foam plate 64 has recesses 17 in its corners, which are designed as bores and which are received as peg pins by pins 16, which are formed in corresponding positions on the underside of the complementary part 2 of the bath holder. An alternative in which the pins 16 are also formed on the pedestal 3 or on the connecting piece 47 has already been described above.

The double rails 22 carrying the sliding siphon 23 will not be described in detail here. It can only be pointed out that these double rails 22 can also be fastened to the C-profiles 45 by clamping screws.

In the C-profiles 45 which are embedded in the foam plate 64, in the absence of a pre-chamber for inserting the footers 5 into their front ends, these footers 5 can also be inserted transversely when using commercially available head screws 14 Hammer-shaped, which is inserted into the slot aperture 46. By rotating through 90 [deg.], the feet 5 in the C-profile 45 can then be attached. This is followed by tightening the tightening nut 54.

Fig. 28 illustrates a further refinement of the pedestal 3. The character of the pedestal is maintained, including the support of the rectangular frame 6 by the pedestals 5. For identical and similar wt. * · · · · * * * * *

30 elements are retained with reference numerals from previous embodiments.

The pedestal 3 consists of frame elements whose profiles are already connected to each other and thus define, for example, the mounting chamber 10 spatially. The improvement consists in that the pedestal 3 has a telescopically adjustable width and length. After the desired plan view has been set, the shape of the rectangular frame 6 is fixed. For example, pivot bolts with wing heads that pass through the slot holes 46 of the C-sections 45 can be used. It is also possible to consider cotters running in rows arranged in rows, or screwing bolts that extend transversely to the insertion direction. Fig. 28 shows a series of openings for this purpose.

In Fig. 29, these frame members are shown in a disassembled state but in positions in which they are ready to be assembled.

The connecting elements 66 which are part of, for example, the central frame element and thus protrude from the box or C-profiles themselves serve as connecting elements. The plug holes 67 are formed by the interior of the box or C-profiles of the frame members to be joined. The insertion depth of the plug elements 66 is selected so as to overlap with a margin from the smallest to the largest plan view of the bath body 1.

For adjusting the width of the rectangular frame 6, the same plug-in elements 66 are used, which slide into the transverse struts 8 or into the narrower side profiles of the rectangular frame 6. The transverse struts 8 are fixed at one end to the profiles of the rectangular frame 6 direction. At the other ends, these transverse struts 8 are open, so that they are «w».

the plug-in element 66 extends from the respective inner side of the opposite longitudinal profile.

Since all three frame elements are formed by closed frames, the transverse struts 8 run under pairs closely next to each other.

Between the cross struts 8 are arranged the aforementioned double rails 22, of course with the possibility of telescopically changing their length. These may be rails with a longitudinal bore and, in addition, they may also be secured against mutual displacement by passing through the clamping screws.

The double rails 22 are spaced apart so that a siphon holder 68, which is shown separately in FIG. 31, can be suspended therebetween. This siphon holder 68 is provided with curved support arms 69 which overlap with their upper horizontal sections extending horizontally in opposite directions The upper sides of the double rails 22 are also secured here, either by means of tightening screws or simply by gluing.

In the support plate of the siphon holder 68, which has a U-shaped profile, a window 70 is formed into which the siphon 23 can be slidably received.

FIG. 30 shows another variant in which the frame connection parts 71 are used, also here using plug elements 66 and plug holes 67.

The frame of the pedestal 3 thus takes on the shape of a polygon with more corners than four. This creates a symmetrical floor plan in the shape of a boat. The arms from which the frame connection piece is made • • · ·

- 32 enclose an approximately right angle with each other. In the case of a pedestal 3 with a hexagonal ground plan, these arms can form an angle of 120 ° to each other instead of a right angle.

Fig. 32 shows another embodiment in which the base 3 has a double-T-shaped plan view. While maintaining the variation in width and length of the base 3 by the telescopic adjustment described above, this construction is specifically designed so that the base 3 comprises a centrally arranged frame member 72 This frame member 72 is considerably narrower than the conventional width of the optional member 2 or the bath member 1. Extending from the relatively narrow frame member 72 extends in the space extending in the space. parallel to the narrower sides of the complementary part 2 and are formed by extension arms 73, which are inserted into plug holes 67 in the box or C-profiles which form the narrow sides of the base 3. It is necessary to ensure sufficient overlap between the extension arm 73 and the respective profile.

By pulling out these boom arms 73, in addition to the vertically oriented passage 9, an extended passage can be formed on both longitudinal sides of the pedestal 3, i.e. a space below the pedestal 3, which allows the pipe 11 to be laid comfortably. signs.

The fixed portion of the frame member 72 is supplemented by transverse struts 8.

The most recently described embodiment according to FIGS. 28 to 32 is that the box or C-profile is provided with an upward profile.

33 a vertically extending angular arm b, which is always located in the region of the outer circumferential side of this profile. The angular arms b intermittently spaced apart also act here as an edge elevation for the correct positioning of the complementary part 2 of the bath holder.

The siphon 23 receiving device, which is mounted in the fixed ladder frame portion 72 in the region of the mounting chamber 10, has a box shape and allows versatility to center the siphon 23 therein. A horizontally oriented beam 74 extends from the housing of the siphon holder 20 and can be attached to the cross brace 8, for example by screwing using the illustrated row of holes in both the beam 74 and the cross brace 8.

The angle bracket b can already be formed together with the corresponding profile, i.e. extruded together with the box profile or C-profile 45. However, in order to avoid the need to cut parts of these angle brackets b, it is also possible to envisage the use of angle brackets forming these angle brackets a , b, wherein the angular arm a then rests or is attached to the upper side of the profile which forms the rectangular frame 6.

The features of the invention apparent from the foregoing description, drawings and claims may be relevant to the practice of the invention both individually and in any combination. All the features described are essential to the invention. It is also within the scope of the invention that the contents of the relevant priority application be fully embodied.
