Sanitary cubicle

The invention relates to a completely prefabricated one and pre-assembled (walls, ceiling, floor, accessories, doorί Sanitary cubicle in the form of a complete transportable cubicle.

It is known to manufacture parts of transportable sanitary cubicles from plastics. Generally they consist of one Union of preformed sheets of solid material, the unit being solidified by gluing or welding. The shaping of the walls, the floor and the ceiling as one Piece meant previously unsolved problems; also, a first known solution consists only in the vertical and to design or shape horizontal surfaces independently or rarely in pairs (adjacent surfaces) without the

Ceiling to take into account. The connection areas in the nooks and crannies are not always desirable; the conversation in these places is not easy; the seal (especially at the lower connection points) can worsen with the tent. Some designers have also just a bathtub or a shower place in the lower part of the cabin prefabricated ,, the upper parts, the toilet bowl » the water flush part are connected to and attached to it., They are not in a single and same manufacturing included. In no case has a closed and airtight cabin been included of the accessories constructed.

On the front wall has the assembly of the door with her Frame has so far formed the subject of numerous solutions inspired by assembly in fixed structures are. A certain number of errors could not be avoided, such as B. Lack of rigidity on the walls »the despite the strength properties of the selected material remain malleable; Transition of colors between the inside and outside of the door frame, as the colors are general are not the same; long assembly times and precise installation of the supporting frame and hinges, the lock, the door itself and, if applicable, the electrical accessories. The production of cabins from two facing tubs, which one inside the other in a horizontal plane are fitted, has been made up of two vertical parts due to the difficulty of assembling the door on a wall never undertaken.

With all walls, the attachment of the accessories means problems, as they can be removed by some external means

209886/0954

must drill through and then fasten the parts * The tightness and strength run the risk of deteriorating. Therefore The barrier and other serious accessories mean problems, in some cases there can be voids in the wall Form contours for barriers and containers of this type. However Until now, the molding difficulties have required the designer to fall back on certain contours, which often are incompatible with convenience and aesthetics'. The known manufacturing processes for such devices can be used for this purpose made of polymerizable synthetic resin reinforced with fiberglass fabric are summarized in the following way Making a model, then a mold; Applying a mold release agent; Attachment of the polymerizable Synthetic resin with the fabric on the mold surfaces? Polymerisation; Demolding, finishing. The approaches or hollows The mold surfaces can therefore be treated in the same way as with a classic casting mold. However, the accessories that are not included must also be attached by gluing (with polymerizable synthetic resin) the sufficient shell can be demolded.

After all, the already known cabins, if they have a shower, have an edging at this place, which this corresponding area is limited and generally increased compared to the rest of the ground. There are separate ones here Drains in the shower part and in the toilet part. If the latter is clogged, the cabin will be flooded and a drainage of water under the door without the drain in the shower area offering a way out here.

The invention is based on the object of creating a prefabricated sanitary cubicle that can accommodate various

209886/0954

avoids elongations of the known, in particular Connection surfaces on the floor, ceiling and vertical edges are avoided and, if possible, all necessary accessories and equipment can already be installed in the factory. At the same time, the invention enable a prefabricated sanitary cubicle in which the Attachment of the door frame is simplified and there are no stiffness difficulties as in the known cabins.

The object of the invention, with which this object is achieved, is a prefabricated sanitary cubicle which is made of polymerizable synthetic resin reinforced with glass wool fabric in a mold, contains all toilet accessories already assembled in the factory and is completed there including the accessories, with the mark that it consists of an integrally molded lower part, in the shape of a tub with all the desired accessories and an integrally molded upper part including the ceiling and its accessories, so that the two parts are connected to one another in the factory via a horizontal connecting surface and the required cavities and lugs (e.g. 6. Edges) with the coverings sufficient for demoulding, and that the door frame at least in its vertical parts (without horizontal connecting surface) continuously and as a block in the corresponding opening provided at the same time in the lower part and in the upper part of the cabin ng is inserted.

To produce such a sanitary cubicle, the cubicle consists of a lower and an upper part with a connecting surface halfway up at least two shapes

209886/0954

men provided according to the required surface shape or the intended number of accessories can be divided into elements. So, different types of Sanitary cubicles are manufactured, including only a relatively low one The number of tools (molds and models) required is ο Different types of booths Combinations that mainly contain a washbasin, toilet, shower or bathtub. An essential feature of the invention is that despite the horizontal connecting surface or surfaces between the main parts of the Cabin the door frame consists of a continuous frame from top to bottom, which is connected to the door accessories and the Door is pre-assembled. So there is no need to worry about deformation in the door area. The assembly times and the quality of the finishing are so vastly improved. Said frame is preferably made in this way (two parallel Half-frame in a vertical plane) that there is also a juxtaposition of two colors (an inner and one of them different external color) can be easily obtained.

The risk of flooding in the toilet part can also be eliminated with a single drain in the shower part will. It is also possible to equip the sanitary cubicle with a tiled floor, whereby there is pollution this tile floor can be avoided by a colored synthetic resin deposit at the time of manufacture »The maintenance and attachment are facilitated by special elements.

Additional details of the prefabricated sanitary cubicle result from the description of the exemplary embodiments.

According to FIG. 1, the lower part 1 and the upper part 2 of the cabin are connected to one another in accordance with a horizontal plane 3 which is approximately halfway up. With simultaneous reference to Fig. 7, in an exemplary type, the lower part comprises the shower basin k (with its surround 5 and its drain 6) the support of the wash basin 7 (with shelves molded into the wall, its water drainage and inflow), the Toilet bowl 8 (with its drain and accessories in the wall), the safety water drain 9 at the bottom of the toilet part, the water inlet and outlet pipes combined at 10 and the wall opening for the door frame 11. The upper part 2 of the cabin includes various accessories, the lighting, the water

209886/0954

flushing, the shower head and the toilet cabinet 12. This latter can be formed on a part that is attached to the mold and fills the space 13. At the moment of demolding, this part of the mold (e.g. ₀ screws) is loosened from the inside. It is then pulled out of the wall. According to a variant (FIGS. 8 and 9), this cabinet 14 can be manufactured by itself (partial molding) and equipped and then attached to the previously cut-out ¥ and by gluing at 15 (with polymerizable synthetic resin).

FIG. 8 shows another possible arrangement or distribution of the _o components. A bathtub could also be provided. In all cases, the accessories; which are pre-assembled on the wall (clothes hooks, etc.) ₉ are screwed onto this in a special way one, which is then covered with synthetic resin (Fig. 15) ° The screws only penetrate the inner wall part 17 «Furthermore, this arrangement means a reinforcement of the wall in this area that cannot be neglected; it can also be used just as such a possible consolidation.

According to a variant, the cabin has two horizontal connecting surfaces 18 and 19 (FIG. 2). The middle one Part 20 can in this case carry more complicated accessories, which are then lighter than in the case of the lower tub 21 and the upper inverted tub 22 are to be demolded. There can also be more than two horizontal connecting surfaces, the intermediate parts each having the shape when viewed from above have a frame.

209886/0954

The horizontal connecting surface is formed by an angled collar 23 on the upper part and such a collar 2k on the lower part. FIGS. 3–5 show possible variants in order to obtain a seal on the connecting surface; a flat seal 25 (FIG. 3), a cylindrical seal 26 (FIG. 5), the collars being shaped accordingly, or an adhesive ring 27 made of or with synthetic resin (FIG. k) . The collar rings are attached to one another by a screw connection. In the case of the first two variants mentioned, additional gluing can be carried out. A frame 28 (above) or 29 (below) is provided on the upper and lower outer side of the cabin (by embedding in synthetic resin), each of which is stiffened by cross struts or cross slats. At each of the four corners a tie rod 30 connects the two frames 28 and 29. The above-mentioned upper frame 28 is provided on each side with two loop-like curved bands 31 ι which are welded and have the shape shown in Fig. 1, the parts 31 are used for fastening (by other, possibly inclined straps 32) to the ceiling 33 or to the corresponding beams of the installation building. Before that, they are used to handle the finished cabin. They can be present in a more or less large number. The lower frame 29 rests on the floor and is attached to it by means of wedges. The cabin is expediently brought to the construction site by means of a small cart, which consists of a very low-lying plate on rollers a few centimeters in diameter.

After it has been arranged and fastened, the cabin is surrounded by four fastening panels Jk (Fig. 6), which are aligned vertically and mounted between the floor and the ceiling.

DeT door frame 11 is continuous at least over its entire height despite the horizontal connecting surface 3 or connecting surfaces 18, 19. It consists according to Fig. 10 of an outer frame 36 bonded to the inner frame 37 is (glued joint surface 38'durch resin or strip 38a adhered to the inside of the frame) ₀ The color of the inner frame 37 corresponds to the interior of the cabin. The color of the frame 36 is in accordance with the outer panels 34. Each vertical frame part is molded with the resins colored as desired. A vertical piece of wood 39 maintains the distance between the two vertical frame parts 36 and 37. The shape of the cross-section of the whole is that shown in FIG. 10. An angled portion 40 enables the door 41 and its hinges 42 to be accommodated. On the other hand, it carries the lock. The outer edge part 43 can to the interior of the cabin walls 1 (lower part) or ₀ 2 (upper part) attached to the opening to be directed. The bent edge 44 of the inner frame 37 rests against the walls 1 and 2. These are clamped by the screws 45 between the wooden insert 46, which is attached on the outside, and the edge 44. The outer end panel 34 then engages between the bent edge 43 and the wooden insert 46, whereby a wedge or filler piece 47 is required. The channel 48 between the wooden piece 39 and the frame 37 serves to receive electrical cables 49 the switch provided. At this point it shows

09886/09

Piece of wood 39 has a recess. The pieces of wood 39 and k6 can be screwed together at 50.

Figo 11 shows a variant of the door frame. This is again at least continuous over its entire height. However, it consists of two connected by riveting or gluing Parts 51 and 52, with part 51 from the inside extends to the outside of the cabin. This arrangement leads to the same results as regards its assembly. However, it has the disadvantage of not distinguishing the colors between the inside and the outside of the cabin to know what is important for the appearance of the whole. As a variant, according to FIG. 11, there is a bar 53 screwed on the outside to cover the connection point of the part 51 and the panel 3 ^. This disadvantage exists not in the first variant according to FIG.

In Fig. 1 it can be seen that the shower floor is higher than that of the toilet part. According to a variant (Fig. 12, 13 »14) it is the other way around. The floor $ h of the toilet part is higher. The shower enclosure 5 has one or two slots 55. If a tap remains open and the water runs onto the floor 5 ^, it finally flows to the shower basin h and drains through the drain opening 6. As a result, there is no need for a water drain at the bottom 5k.

The cabin floor is preferably provided with a tile covering. The tile covering is attached expediently according to the following procedure:

Lining the mold with the mold release agent (avoidance of sticking).

209886/0954

Applying colorless polymerizable synthetic resin to the part of the mold corresponding to the floor of the cabin and laying the tile covering so that the resin around the Tiles and can penetrate into the interior of the joints in the tile covering. Polymerisation.

Application of colored polymerizable synthetic resin with the glass fiber fabric above the tile covering.

In this way, the colored resin never appears directly on the surface of the tile, as the colorless one Resin prevents such penetration.

The mold for making the cabin (lower and upper Part) is preferably made of polished wood. It is divided into as many parts or elements as there are accessories (shower basin, Toilet, toilet part, etc.) are desired, divisible. So different combinations are possible to increase the number of To reduce or increase accessories and to change their allocation to one another.

From the foregoing it can be seen that the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described is; on the contrary, it encompasses all possible variants insofar as they do not fall outside the scope of the claims.

The prefabricated sanitary cabin according to the invention can be used in accommodations on board ships, in hotels, Use in bathing establishments, in factory toilet areas, etc. It can also be used in the construction of normal housing Find.
