Ein Rahmen 10 für Duschkabinen gemäss Fig. 1 weist untenseitig eine etwa L-förmige Schiene 11 auf, an deren kurzem aussenseitigen Schenkel 11a als vordere feste Führungswand drei verschiebbare Trennwände als Schiebetüren 12 geführt werden, die an einem oberen Querholm gleitend aufgehängt sind (nicht dargestellt). Zur besseren Führung ist der Schenkel 11a U-förmig nach innen abgebogen. Ein weiterer, längerer Schenkel 11b dient dabei als Wasserablaufschenkel und ist zum Duschraum (Feuchtraum) gerichtet.A frame 10 for shower cubicles according to FIG. 1 has on the underside an approximately L-shaped rail 11, on the short outside leg 11a of which three movable partition walls are guided as sliding doors 12, which are slidably suspended from an upper cross member (not shown) ). For better guidance, the leg 11a is bent inward in a U-shape. Another, longer leg 11b serves as a water drain leg and is directed towards the shower room (damp room).

Die untere längliche L-förmige Schiene 11 ist zwischen zwei seitlichen U-förmigen Rahmen 13 mittels Schraub- und Steckverbindung festgesetzt. Um die Schiebetüren 12 mit ihren Führungsleisten 14 in Richtung zum Innenraum zu begrenzen, ist als hintere feuchtraumseitige Führungswand ein Führungsholm 15 gemäss Fig. 1, beispielsweise zum Reinigen, lösbar an den Enden der L-förmigen Schiene 11 befestigt.The lower elongated L-shaped rail 11 is fixed between two side U-shaped frames 13 by means of a screw and plug connection. In order to limit the sliding doors 12 with their guide strips 14 in the direction of the interior, a guide bar 15 according to FIG. 1, for example for cleaning, is releasably attached to the ends of the L-shaped rail 11 as a rear guide wall on the damp side.

Die unteren Enden 14 der Trennwände tauchen in einen Führungsschlitz 22 ein, der einerseits durch den Schenkel 11a der vorderen Führungswand und andererseits durch den beweglichen Führungsholm 15 gebildet ist.The lower ends 14 of the partition walls dip into a guide slot 22 which is formed on the one hand by the leg 11a of the front guide wall and on the other hand by the movable guide bar 15.

Für die Reinigung des Führungsschlitzes 22 innerhalb der unteren L-förmigen Schiene 11 lässt sich der Führungsholm 15 mit wenigen Handgriffen schnell und mühelos entfernen, so dass die Schiebetüren 12 ebenfalls in den Feuchtraum geschwenkt werden und somit das Reinigen der Führungsflächen der Schiene 11 möglich ist. Nach Beendigung des Reinigungsvorganges kann der Führungsholm 15 wieder einfach integriert werden.For cleaning the guide slot 22 within the lower L-shaped rail 11, the guide bar 15 can be removed quickly and effortlessly in a few simple steps, so that the sliding doors 12 are also pivoted into the damp room and thus the guide surfaces of the rail 11 can be cleaned. After completion of the cleaning process, the guide bar 15 can be easily integrated again.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 2 bis 4 ist die L-förmige untere Schiene 11 zwischen zwei seitlichen I-förmigen Rahmenteilen 38 mittels Schrauben 18 mit diesen verbunden; diese Rahmenteile 38 halten den Führungsholm 15, in dem einenends eine Rasteinrichtung 39 und anderenends ein Steckzapfen 40 befestigt sind, die in Endkappen 41 mitAusnehmungen 41 a der Rahmenteile 38 rastend eingreifen.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 2 to 4, the L-shaped lower rail 11 is connected to two lateral I-shaped frame parts 38 by means of screws 18; these frame parts 38 hold the guide bar 15, in which a latching device 39 is fastened at one end and a plug pin 40 is fastened at the other end, which engage in end caps 41 with recesses 41a of the frame parts 38.

Der Steckzapfen 40 ist in dem Führungsholm 15 klemmend eingesteckt und weist eine Nase 40a auf.The plug pin 40 is inserted in the guide bar 15 in a clamping manner and has a nose 40a.

Dem Steckzapfen 40 gegenüberliegend ist in dem Führungsholm 15 die Rasteinrichtung 39 befestigt, deren Falle (Riegel) 42 ebenfalls in die Endkappe 41 bzw. deren Ausnehmung 41a eingreift.Opposing the plug pin 40, the latching device 39 is fastened in the guide bar 15, the catch (latch) 42 of which also engages in the end cap 41 or the recess 41a thereof.

Die Rasteinrichtung besteht aus der Falle 42, die in einem Steckzapfen 43 verschiebbar gelagert ist und mittels Nocken 43a, die in Ausnehmung 44 der Falle 42 eingreifen, in seiner Verschiebung begrenzt gehalten wird.The latching device consists of the latch 42, which is mounted displaceably in a plug pin 43 and is limited in its displacement by means of cams 43a which engage in the recess 44 of the latch 42.

In Längsrichtung der Falle 42 liegt in einer Nut 45 eine Feder 46, welche die Falle 42 stets in Raststellung drückt.In the longitudinal direction of the latch 42 there is a tongue 46 in a groove 45 which always presses the latch 42 into the latching position.

Um die Raststellung zeitweilig aufzuheben, um den Führungsholm 15 für Reinigungszwecke herausnehmen zu können, ist in der Falle 42 eine Stecköffnung 47 zum Innenraum der Kabine gerichtet angeordnet, in der ein Griffstück 48 mit Steckteil 48a klemmend gehalten ist. Dabei ragt das Steckteil 48a aus der Wandung des Führungsholmes 15 durch einen Schlitz 49 zum Innenraum heraus, so dass das Griffstück 48 an der Aussenfläche des Führungsholms 15 liegt und somit leicht unter Überwindung der Federkraft zu betätigen ist.In order to temporarily release the latching position in order to be able to remove the guide bar 15 for cleaning purposes, a plug opening 47 is arranged in the case 42 facing the interior of the cabin, in which a grip piece 48 is held in a clamping manner with a plug part 48a. The plug part 48a protrudes from the wall of the guide bar 15 through a slot 49 to the interior, so that the handle 48 is on the outer surface of the guide bar 15 and is therefore easy to operate while overcoming the spring force.

Eine Duschabtrennung 50 gemäss Fig. 5 bis 12 weist einen umlaufenden Rahmen 51 auf, dessen Seitenteile 51a aus vorzugsweise U-förmigen Strang-Profilen gebildet sind und an dessen oberem Querholm 52 beispielsweise drei verschiebbare Trennwände 53 (Schiebetüren) in entsprechenden Gleitschienen aufgehängt sind und den Zugang zum Feuchtraum (Duschkabine) freigeben können.5 to 12 has a peripheral frame 51, the side parts 51a of which are preferably formed from U-shaped extruded profiles and on the upper cross member 52, for example, three sliding partitions 53 (sliding doors) are suspended in corresponding slide rails and the Can give access to the wet room (shower cubicle).

Der untere Querholm 54, welcher auf dem Rand der Duschwanne aufliegen kann, weist eine vordere Führungswand 55 auf, die nach unten und innen zum Feuchtraum hin als Wasserablaufschenkel 56 ausläuft. Beide Querholme 52, 54 sind mit entsprechenden Nuten 57 ausgestattet, um in diese die Seitenteile 51a mittels Schrauben 58 zu einem Rahmen 51 zu verbinden.The lower cross member 54, which can rest on the edge of the shower tray, has a front guide wall 55 which runs downward and inward toward the damp room as a water drainage leg 56. Both crossbars 52, 54 are equipped with corresponding grooves 57 in order to connect the side parts 51a into a frame 51 by means of screws 58.

Die an dem oberen Querholm 52 verschiebbar aufgehängten Trennwände 53 weisen untenseitig jeweils eine Führungsleiste 59 auf, an denen Endkappen 60 aufgesteckt sind. Dabei können die Endkappen 60 der vorderen Trennwand 53 an der vorderen Führungswand 55 des unteren Querholms 54 anliegen.The partition walls 53 slidably suspended on the upper cross member 52 each have a guide bar 59 on the underside, to which end caps 60 are attached. The end caps 60 of the front partition 53 can rest against the front guide wall 55 of the lower cross member 54.

Um die Trennwände 53 auch feuchtraumseitig zu führen, ist der Führungswand 55 des unteren Querholms 54 gegenüberliegend unter Bildung eines Führungsschlitzes 61 ein Führungsholm 62 angeordnet, welcher die Führungsleisten 59 der inneren Trennwand 53 begrenzt.In order to also guide the partition walls 53 on the wet room side, a guide rail 62 is arranged opposite the guide wall 55 of the lower cross member 54, forming a guide slot 61, which limits the guide strips 59 of the inner partition wall 53.

Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung lagert der vorzugsweise als Strangprofil gefertigte Führungsholm 62 in den Seitenteilen 51a des U-förmigen Rahmens 51 klemmend. Dabei lagern die Führungsholmenden in dem Querschnitt des Führungsholmes 62 entsprechend ausgebildeten Buchsen 63, die in Öffnungen 64 der Seitenteile 51a eingesteckt gehalten sind und den Führungsholm 62 gegen ein Verschieben klemmend halten.In this embodiment of the invention, the guide bar 62, which is preferably manufactured as an extruded profile, is clamped in the side parts 51a of the U-shaped frame 51. In this case, the guide bar ends are supported in the cross section of the guide bar 62 by correspondingly designed bushes 63 which are kept inserted in openings 64 of the side parts 51a and hold the guide bar 62 in a clamping manner against displacement.

Dieser Führungsholm 62 ist vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff hergestellt und weist einen U-förmigen Querschnitt auf, dessen freie Schenkel 62a zum Wasserschenkel 56 des unteren Querholms 54 (d.h. nach unten) gerichtet sind.This guide bar 62 is preferably made of plastic and has a U-shaped cross section, the free legs 62a of which are directed towards the water leg 56 of the lower cross bar 54 (i.e. downwards).

Sollen bei einem derartigen gehaltenen Führungsholm 62 die Trennwände 53 beispielsweise für Reinigungszwecke aus dem Führungsschlitz 61 nach innen zum Feuchtraum hin verschwenkt werden, so lässt sich der elastisch nachgiebige Führungsholm 62 in seinem Mittelteil nach unten drücken. Nachdem die Trennwände 53 bereits zur Mitte des Rahmens 51 verschoben wurden, können nun die Trennwände 53 abgeschwenkt werden (vgl. Fig. 6 und 8). Das Einbringen der Trennwände 53 in den Führungsschlitz 61 erfolgt ebenfalls durch Durchbiegen des Führungsholmes 62 nach unten, bis die Oberkante des Führungsholmes 62 unter die Unterkante der Führungsleiste 59 der Trennwände 53 liegt, so dass diese dann eingeschwenkt werden können.If the partition walls 53 are to be pivoted inward from the guide slot 61 toward the damp room, for example for cleaning purposes, in such a held guide bar 62, the elastically flexible guide bar 62 can be pressed downward in its central part. After the partitions 53 have already been moved to the center of the frame 51, the partitions 53 can now be pivoted away (cf. FIGS. 6 and 8). The partition walls 53 are also introduced into the guide slot 61 by bending the guide rail 62 downward until the upper edge of the guide rail 62 lies below the lower edge of the guide rail 59 of the partition walls 53, so that these can then be pivoted in.

Ein derartig U-förmig aus Kunststoff gebildeter Führungsholm 62 zeigt den Vorteil, dass während des Durchbiegens die freien Schenkel 62a sich teilweise im Biegungsbereich nach aussen verformen, wobei die Seitenstabilität des Führungsholmes 62 günstig unterstützt wird.Such a U-shaped plastic guide bar 62 has the advantage that during the bending the free legs 62a partially deform outwards in the bending area, the lateral stability of the guide bar 62 being favorably supported.

Bei dem nach Fig. 10 der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Führungsholm 62 von vorzugsweise zwei Rohrenden 65 gebildet, welche mittels einer Blattfeder 66 o.dgl. durch Nieten 67, Schrauben o.dgl. miteinander verbunden sind.In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10 of the drawing, the guide bar 62 is preferably formed by two tube ends 65, which or the like by means of a leaf spring 66. by rivets 67, screws or the like. are interconnected.

Ein derartig ausgebildeter Führungsholm 62 lässt sich zum Abschwenken der Trennwände 53 für Reinigungszwecke stumpfwinklig nach unten drücken, wobei durch die flach liegende Blattfeder 66 die Seitenstabilität erhalten bleibt.A guide bar 62 designed in this way can be pressed downward at an obtuse angle for pivoting the partition walls 53 for cleaning purposes, the lateral stability being retained by the flat leaf spring 66.

Ein in Fig. 11 und 12 gezeigter Führungsholm 68 ist ebenfalls U-förmig ausgebildet und weist untenseitig eine abgebogene federnde Zunge 69 auf, welche sich auf dem Wasserablaufschenkel 56 des Querholms 54 oder aber auf dem Wannenrand abstützt.A guide bar 68 shown in FIGS. 11 and 12 is also U-shaped and has a bent resilient tongue 69 on the underside, which is supported on the water drainage leg 56 of the cross bar 54 or on the tub rim.

Die Zunge 69 ist vorzugsweise aus demselben Material des Führungsholms 68 gebildet und ist entsprechend seiner Länge etwa mittig angeordnet.The tongue 69 is preferably formed from the same material of the guide rail 68 and is arranged approximately in the middle in accordance with its length.

Desweiteren sind die Lagerbuchsen 70 im Querschnitt rechteckig ausgebildet und lassen sich mittels der Schrauben 58 mit den Seitenteilen 51 a des Rahmens 52 verbinden. Das Einsetzen des Führungsholms 68 erfolgt durch Einstecken eines Endes in eine Öffnung 70a der Lagerbuchsen 70 eines Seitenteils 51a, bis das andere Ende vor der gegenüberliegenden Öffnung 70a der anderen Lagerbuchse 70 liegt und dann eingeschoben werden kann. Der Führungsholm 68 wird dabei über die Wülste 71 in seiner Lage klemmend gehalten.Furthermore, the bearing bushes 70 are rectangular in cross section and can be connected to the side parts 51 a of the frame 52 by means of the screws 58. The guide bar 68 is inserted by inserting one end into an opening 70a of the bearing bushes 70 of a side part 51a until the other end lies in front of the opposite opening 70a of the other bearing bushing 70 and can then be inserted. The guide bar 68 is held in position by the beads 71.

Bei der in Fig. 12 dargestellten Lagerbuchse 70 weist diese in der Öffnung 70a eine nach innen und oben auslaufende Schräge 72 auf, wobei die obere Wulst 71 nahe dem Führungsholmende aufliegt. Die Schräge 72 bewirkt bei einem Anheben des Führungsholms 68 nach oben ein leichtes Herausgleiten der Enden bei durchgebogenem Führungsholm zu seiner Entnahme.In the case of the bearing bush 70 shown in FIG. 12, it has an inward and upward slope 72 in the opening 70a, the upper bead 71 resting close to the end of the guide rail. When the guide bar 68 is lifted upwards, the bevel 72 causes the ends to slide out slightly when the guide bar is bent to remove it.
