Water trough

It is known, for example, as part of a Kneipp cure for physical exercise and stimulation of the circulatory system kicking your feet in the water. This generally occurs in flowing and particularly cold waters. Because such waters but are not available to the general public on a daily basis, many have already switched to so-called dew-stepping, in which the feet are massaged by a run over a morning lawn and the circulation is also stimulated. The is generally not possible for tenants and other people who have this possibility, are treading dew at least in the winter months due to weather conditions regularly prevented.

The innovation has set itself the task of creating a Wassertretwanne that allows any user away massaged over the full calendar year under the protection of his apartment in the style of so-called Tautretens his feet zv and stimulate the circulation. Such a water trough is according to the innovation

characterized by a waterproof plastic shell open at the top with a level floor and four vertical delimitation

walls with at least one layer of foam between them. Such a VJanne can be filled up with water, to which an additive is preferably added, which is foaming, so that by the flowing of the water through the Po ^ -ren the foam layer produced a special foam effect which contributes to the revitalization of the circulation when pedaling. It has been shown to be particularly advantageous if two superimposed Foam layers are provided, which is preferably are welded together so that the upper foam layer cannot stand out from the lower one when they is loaded on one side when pedaling, the upper foam layer being thinner according to one embodiment of the innovation should and of greater porosity than the lower Senauiustoffllage, as this increases the massage effect on the feet.

The water trolley has proportions according to the size the height of the boundary walls and thus approximately the thickness of the foam layers or the foam layer 2-7 cm, preferably is about 5–6 cm. The width and length of the tub should be around 40 - 80 cm, so on the one hand enough There is space for the constant movement of the feet, on the other hand the tub itself is not too much when not in use Takes up space.

According to one embodiment of the innovation it is provided that the vertical boundary walls of the tub through, obliquely outwards aligned JiXtßenx> edges supported sand- au the preferential-

wise a circumferential water collecting channel connects. In such a case, the shell can be made from a relatively thin, deep-drawn plastic film in the deep-drawing process produce. To reinforce the container, the bottom can also be stiffened by ribs.

An embodiment of the innovation is explained below with reference to a drawing. In the drawing show :

Figure 1: A partial view of the water trough with foam insert in perspective rendering and

FIG. 2: a section along the line II-II in FIG. 1.

The water tub shown in the drawing has an open top, what Seirdicnte Künstststöixschaie Ί, the one Has bottom 2 which is reinforced by ribs 3. The floor 2 is laterally delimited by four vertical delimitation walls 4 or · 4 ·, which in the top looks like a rectangle stand to each other, the height of the walls is about 7 cm.

The limiting walls 4 are supported outwardly by obliquely outwardly aligned support walls 5 and 5 ', which connect with a rounding 6 to the boundary walls 4 and extend on their underside into a water channel 7, which runs around the container so that anything overflows

of the water does not pollute the 8 floor. The water collection channel 7 is limited to the outside by a collar 9. The dimensions are such that the water trough has a width of preferably about 50 cm and a length of preferably 60-70 cm, so that there is sufficient space to move the feet.

To use the water trough, a foam layer, which is double-layered in the exemplary embodiment, is placed in the shell 1 10 inserted. The foam layer 10 consists of a lower one higher layer 11, which has only small pores and a second upper layer 12, which is connected to the lower layer 11 is welded and has stronger pores. After inserting the foam layer 10, water is preferably poured into the water trough with the addition of a foam or a salt entered, which when stepping on the top of the Layer 12 emerges from this and promotes massaging the feet and stimulating the circulation.
