Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wall section for a steam bath cabin, which has a seat which is integrally connected to the wall section, and in which a seat surface of the seat extends from a wall part of the wall section into the interior of the steam bath cabin which can be constructed from a plurality of joined wall sections.
  • Such a wall section for a steam bath cabin is known from DE-OS 35 36 508.
  • a disadvantage of the known wall section for steam bath cabins is considered that Seating surface of the seat made in one piece with the wall section runs essentially horizontally.
  • Such a design of the seat of the known wall section leads to the sweat dripping from the body of the steam bath user onto the seat surface and the condensation water which condenses on the wall section and flows to the lower seat to the front surface.
  • the known wall sections for a steam bath cabin are therefore not suitable to serve as components of a steam bath cabin that offers their users relaxation and recreation over a long period of time.
  • a seating and lying device for steam baths in which a sitting and lying surface as well as a foot support surface have one or more interruptions have, which are designed in the form of grooves or channels. From their outer edges to the interruption arranged in their center, the seat surface and the footrest surface have a slight gradient of approximately 2-5 degrees.
  • This known seating and lying device for steam baths has the disadvantage that it has only extremely low sitting and lying comfort.
  • the groove arranged in the middle of the seat or lying surface can be felt in a particularly uncomfortable manner for the person sitting on it, so that the comfort of the user of the steam bath intended for relaxation and recreation suffers considerably.
  • the object of the invention is to develop a wall section of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that a rapid outflow of the liquid which accumulates on the seat surface of the wall section is achieved.
  • a relaxed sitting position of the steam bath user resting on the seat of the wall section is to be ensured.
  • the invention proposes that drops the seat from a front edge of the seat to the wall portion of the wall portion towards, and which is provided at its center with a through extending from the front edge of the seat surface to the wall portion of the wall portion survey the seat which the seat surface along a Dividing the dividing line into two sections, which are inclined towards the outer edges of the seat and sloping towards the wall.
  • Such a roof-like design of the seat surface of a wall section - in which the partial surfaces are inclined towards the outer edges of the seat and sloping towards the wall part - advantageously brings with it that the sweat dripping onto the seat surface and / or that is deposited thereon accumulating condensate is drained from the seat to the outer edges of the seat. This prevents laughter on the seat in a particularly simple manner.
  • the seat sloping backwards and sloping to the side allows the steam bath user to sit relaxed.
  • the measures according to the invention considerably increase the comfort of the steam bath users and guarantee relaxing and restful use of the steam bath cabin constructed from the individual wall sections.
  • the wall section is provided with troughs inclined towards the front edge of the seat and running on the outer edge of the seat.
  • this has the effect that the liquid draining from the partial surfaces of the seat surface is channeled into the drainage channels.
  • the measure mentioned above is particularly advantageous in connection with a corresponding design of the seat:
  • the seat is designed such that the inclined seat surfaces of adjacent wall sections abut one another laterally and that the mutually facing troughs of adjacent seats form a common drainage channel. This has the effect that it is possible in a particularly simple manner to create a large-area section by stringing together several wall sections, which section is excellently suitable as a lying surface.
  • the subdivision of the large-area section into a plurality of sub-areas separated by drainage channels formed by the individual drainage channels guarantees that the liquids that accumulate on the individual seating surfaces are disposed of properly.
  • a further advantageous development of the invention provides that the wall section is designed as a corner element with an angle between the outer edges of the inclined seat surfaces not equal to 180 °, the elevation of the seat surface being arranged in the region of the bisector of the outer edges. This has the advantage that steam bath cabins of any shape can be constructed with the wall sections according to the invention.
  • a further advantageous development provides that the seat of the wall section is provided with armrests which are separated from the inclined seat surface of the seat by the drainage channels.
  • the first exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 shows a wall section 1 which has a wall part 10, a seat 20 and a base part 30 which form integral parts of the wall section 1.
  • the wall section 1 shows those known to the person skilled in the art, but not here shown devices through which a plurality of wall sections 1 can be joined together to form a steam bath cabin.
  • the wall section 1 is made of a plastic material that meets the special conditions that prevail in the steam bath cabin formed by the wall sections 1 due to the high humidity and the high heat generation.
  • the formation of a seat surface 21 of the seat 20 of the wall section 1 is particularly important.
  • the seat surface 21 is inclined by an angle ⁇ relative to a horizontal 40 and falls from a front edge 22 of the seat 20 to a transition line 23 - which schematically shows the seat 20 from the wall part 10 delimits - down.
  • a just a few degrees inclination of the angle ⁇ is perfectly sufficient to guide the dripping sweat from the body of a person, not shown, and / or the condensation on the front 10 'of the wall part 10 into the region of the transition line 23 of the seat surface 21.
  • the seat 1 has an elevation 24 which runs approximately in the middle of the seat 21 from the front edge 22 to the transition line 23.
  • This elevation 24 divides the seat surface 21 along a dividing line 24 'into two partial surfaces 21' and 21 ', which start from the dividing line 24' towards the outer edges 25 and 25 'of the seat 20, which are also at an angle ⁇ relative to the horizontal 40 sloping towards the back. It is provided that the survey 24 along its entire course has a constant increase h with respect to a plane formed by the outer edge 25, 25 'and a further horizontal 41.
  • the dividing line 24 'therefore runs inclined by the angle ⁇ with respect to the horizontal 40 and by the increase h with respect to the lower outer edges 25 and 25' offset from the front edge 22 to the transition line 23.
  • the increase h of the elevation 24 changes along its course from the front edge 22 to the wall part 10. It is only important that this roof-like design of the seat surface 21 with two separated by the dividing line 24, from the elevation 24 to the outer edges 25 and 25 'sloping partial surfaces 21' and 21 'in conjunction with that from the front edge 22 to the transition line 23 out inclination of the entire seat surface 21 by an angle ⁇ causes sweat and / or condensation to not accumulate on the seat surface 21: it is immediately derived towards the outer edges 25 and 25 '. This measure considerably increases the comfort of the person sitting on the seat 20, since there is no longer any laughter.
  • a seat surface designed in this way allows the steam bath user to sit in a relaxed and comfortable position, since the seat surface 21, which slopes away to the rear, ensures good support for the thighs of the steam bath user resting thereon.
  • troughs 26 and 26' are provided, from the transition line 23 slope towards the front edge 22 of the seat 20.
  • the troughs 26 and 26 ' are inclined downward by the angle ⁇ with respect to the horizontal 40.
  • One of the lower edge of the trough 26 or 26 'forming, from the transition line 23 to the front of the seat 20 edge 27 or 27' thus emerges by the distance h 'below the further horizontal 41 at the front of the seat 20 and closes with the corresponding outer edge 25 or 25 'an angle which corresponds to the sum of the angles ⁇ and ⁇ .
  • the troughs 26 and 26 ' are used to discharge the liquid flowing from the partial surfaces 21' and 21 ⁇ of the seat surface 21 to the outer edges 25 and 25 '. It is particularly advantageous that the troughs 26 and 26 'allow the seat 20 to be designed in such a way that the seats 20 of a plurality of adjacent wall sections 1 along the edges 27 and 27' can be joined together to form a kind of lying surface.
  • the trough 26 'or 26' forms with one of the trough 26 or 26 'corresponding further trough of the adjacent seat of an attached wall section from a drain channel, which enables reliable removal of the liquid present on the corresponding partial surfaces even with such a large lying area.
  • the wall section 1 has a front surface 29 which extends obliquely to the rear from the front edge 22 of the seat 20 to the base part 30 and two closed side surfaces 28 and 28 ' on.
  • a design of the wall section 1 has the effect that it is easy to clean, since the liquid discharged from the inclined seat surface 21 cannot get into the interior of the wall section 1.
  • a back recess 11 is integrated in the vertical wall part 10 following the seat surface 21, the anatomically shaped shape of which increases the comfort of the steam bath user. It is also provided that the back recess 11 of the wall part 10 and the seat surface 21 of the seat 20 are contrasted in color from the base material of the wall section.
  • FIG. 3 A second exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 3.
  • This shows a wall section 100 formed as a corner element, in which the angle between two outer edges 25 and 25 'is 90 °. But it is also possible to choose the angle enclosed by the outer edges 25 and 25 'as desired.
  • the parts common to the first exemplary embodiment are provided with the same reference symbols. It is therefore not necessary to describe them again.
  • an elevation 124 which corresponds to the elevation 24 of the first exemplary embodiment. This is arranged in the area of the angular diagonals between the outer edges 25 and 25 'of the seat 20 and divides the Seat surface 21 along a cutting line 124 '- which corresponds to the cutting line 24' of the first embodiment - in two to the outer edges 25 and 25 'inclined and from the front edge 22 to the wall part 10 sloping partial areas 21' and 21 ⁇ .
  • the derivation of the liquid from these partial surfaces 21 'and 21 ⁇ takes place through the gutters 26 and 26' analogously to the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 4 shows a third exemplary embodiment of a wall section 200.
  • the parts common to the first exemplary embodiment are provided with the same reference numerals and a repeated description is therefore omitted.
  • the wall section 200 has an armrest 201, which is separated by an integrated drain channel 126 from the partial surface 21 'of the seat surface 21.
  • the integrated drain channel 126 corresponds approximately to the previously described, by the joining of the troughs 26 and 26 'adjacent wall sections 1 created drain channel of the first embodiment.
  • the arrangement of the integrated drain channel 126 between the armrest 201 and the inclined partial surface 21 ' has the effect that, in this case as well, a particularly simple and effective removal of the liquid running off the partial surface 21' is achieved.
  • the seat 20 of the Wall section 200 has a further armrest, which is arranged on the outer edge 25 of the seat 20 and is separated from the partial surface 21kanal by a further integrated drainage channel. This creates a seat 20 with armrests 201, which guarantees a relaxed seating position for the steam bath user and in which a perfect removal of the liquid dripping onto the inclined seat surface 21 is ensured.
