Description

Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein einfach zu verlegender, preiswerter Bausatz zum Erstellen von Rundduschen sowie das Verfahren zum erstellen der Runddusche.The present invention relates to an easy-to-install, inexpensive kit for creating round showers and the method for creating the round shower.

Aus praktischen Gründen werden Duschen bisher praktisch ausschließlich als etwa quadratische Duschen gebaut, wobei eine entsprechend geformte Duschwanne mit einer Seite an eine Wand angelehnt oder in eine Wandecke eingepaßt und die übrigen Seiten durch Anbringen fester oder verschiebbarer Wände oder Türen für den Einstieg zu einer Duschkabine vervollständig werden. Die Einbeziehung der Badezimmerwände und die Verwendung glatter Wände für die Abtrennung gegenüber dem Innenraum ist außerordentlich wirtschaftlich, hat jedoch den Nachteil, daß die Badezimmerwand sehr gut isoliert sein muß, damit kein Wasser eindringt, die gebildeten Ecken schlecht zu reinigen sind und die entstehende Kastenform langweilig und unattraktiv erscheint.For practical reasons, showers have so far been built almost exclusively as square showers, with a correspondingly shaped shower tray leaning on one side against a wall or fitted into a wall corner and completing the other sides by attaching fixed or sliding walls or doors for entry to a shower cubicle will. The inclusion of the bathroom walls and the use of smooth walls for the separation from the interior is extremely economical, but has the disadvantage that the bathroom wall must be very well insulated so that no water penetrates, the corners formed are difficult to clean and the resulting box shape is boring and appears unattractive.

In geringem Maße hat man daher versucht, von der Rechteckform wegzukommen und 6-8-seitige freistehende Duschzellen, überwiegend aus Kunststoff und Glas, und auch im Schnitt kreisförmige "Rundduschen" gebaut. Insbesondere die Erstellung einer Runddusche erweist sich als schwierig, da das Aufmauern der kreisförmigen Zylinderform mit Aussparung der entsprechenden Einstiegs- und Installationsöffnungen mühsam ist und eine hohe Arbeitsgenauigkeit erfordert und die Verwendung von vorgefertigten Betonröhren mit entsprechenden Öffnungen, Transport- und Installationsprobleme mit sich bringt und eine solche Röhre zudem keine individuelle Variation zuläßt.To a small extent, attempts have therefore been made to get away from the rectangular shape and to build 6-8-sided free-standing shower cells, predominantly made of plastic and glass, and also circular "round showers" on average. In particular, the creation of a circular shower proves to be difficult, because the walling of the circular cylindrical shape with a recess in the corresponding entry and installation openings is laborious and requires a high level of work accuracy and the use of prefabricated concrete pipes with corresponding openings entails transport and installation problems and one such a tube also does not allow individual variation.

Aus dem DE-U- 8230 746 ist es bekannt unter anderem auch runde Duschkabinen aus speziell ausgebildeten Wandelementen, Bodenwanne, Deckenschale und Türen zusammenzubauen, wobei die Einzelteile mittels planer Flächen aneinander gefügt werden, in die jeweils eine rillenartige Vertiefung eingearbeitet ist, die beim Zusammenfügen eine Hohlkammer bilden, welche ein elastisches Dichtungsband aufnimmt. Durch Verschrauben der Teile gegeneinander wird der notwendige Klemmdruck erzeugt, welcher die elastische Dichtung bewirkt. Um die entsprechende Festigkeit zu erzeugen, bestehen die Teile aus Blechhohlprofilen. Neben der aufwendigen Herstellung sind solche Teile daher relativ schwer und nur sehr schlecht an die jeweiligen Verhältnisse anzupassen.From DE-U-8230 746 it is known, among other things, to assemble round shower cubicles from specially designed wall elements, floor pan, ceiling shell and doors, the individual parts being joined to one another by means of flat surfaces, into each of which a groove-like depression is incorporated, which when being joined form a hollow chamber which receives an elastic sealing tape. By screwing the parts together, the necessary clamping pressure is generated, which causes the elastic seal. In order to generate the appropriate strength, the parts consist of hollow sheet metal profiles. In addition to the complex production, such parts are therefore relatively difficult and very difficult to adapt to the respective conditions.

Der Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 ist aus dem Dokument DE-U-8230746 bereits bekannt.The preamble of claim 1 is already known from document DE-U-8230746.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war es daher, einen Bausatz für Rundduschen zu entwickeln, der einfach und wirtschaftlich herzustellen ist, leicht transportiert und montiert werden kann und eine große Variabilität für die Anpassung an die jeweilige Räumlichkeit und die Wünsche des Benutzers besitzt.The object of the present invention was therefore to develop a kit for circular showers that is simple and economical to manufacture, can be easily transported and assembled and has great variability for adapting to the respective space and the wishes of the user.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist durch die in den Ansprüchen 1 und 6 gekennzeichneten Merkmale gegeben bzw. wird durch diese gefördert.The solution to this problem is given by the features characterized in claims 1 and 6 or is promoted by them.

Alle erfindungsgemäßen Teile werden aus Kunststoffhartschaum, insbesondere Polystyrol- oder Polyurethanschaum hergestellt, indem man sie entweder direkt in entsprechenden Formen ausschäumt oder aus größeren Blöcken herausschneidet. Aus Stabilitätsgründen, die Teile müssen beim Zusammenbau selbsttragend sein, sind Wandstärken von 3-10 cm, vorzugsweise 5-8 cm, erforderlich. Größere Wandstärken sind zwar möglich, jedoch wegen des größeren Materialverbrauchs und des beim Zusammenbau erforderlichen Raumbedarfs nicht sinnvoll.All parts according to the invention are made of rigid plastic foam, in particular polystyrene or polyurethane foam, either by foaming them directly in appropriate shapes or by cutting them out of larger blocks. For reasons of stability, the parts must be self-supporting during assembly, wall thicknesses of 3-10 cm, preferably 5-8 cm, are required. Larger wall thicknesses are possible, but not sensible due to the greater material consumption and the space required for assembly.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Elemente weisen ein extrem geringes Gewicht auf, lassen sich mit entsprechenden Kunststoffklebern einfach und außerordentlich fest miteinander verbinden, wobei durch die vorgesehenen Nut- und Federelemente bzw. Stufenfalze auch eine sehr paßgenaue und exakte verarbeitung ermöglicht ist. Die für den Einstieg und die Installationselemente notwendigen Öffnungen und Nuten lassen sich in jeder gewünschten Größe und Form und Lage vorort individuell einschneiden oder einfräsen, so daß das System außerordentlich variabel ist.The elements according to the invention have an extremely low weight, can be easily and extraordinarily firmly connected to one another with appropriate plastic adhesives, and the provided tongue and groove elements or step folds also enable very precise and exact processing. The openings and grooves required for entry and the installation elements can be individually cut or milled on site in any desired size and shape and position, so that the system is extremely variable.

Grund- und Deckenplatte werden vorzugsweise quadratisch gefertigt, um die Dusche paßgenau an eine Wand oder in eine Ecke einzufügen, wobei nicht benötigte, in den Raum vorstehende Ecken vor der Montage entfert werden können. Bei einer Anordnung der Dusche in der Raummitte kann natürlich direkt ein rundes Element angewendet werden oder entsprechende quadratische Elemente auf eine kreisförmige Grundplatte reduziert werden.Base and ceiling plate are preferably made square to fit the shower to a wall or in a corner, with unnecessary, protruding into the room Corners can be removed before assembly. If the shower is arranged in the middle of the room, a round element can of course be used directly or corresponding square elements can be reduced to a circular base plate.

Abgesehen von der Verwendung der Bauelemente zur Bildung einer zylinderförmigen Duschkabine ist es natürlich auch möglich, ein entsprechend größeres, halbkreisförmiges oder viertelkreisförmiges Element zu verwenden, um damit Duschabteile an einer Wand oder in einer Ecke abzutrennen, wobei dann die vorhandenen Wandteile den Abschluß der Kabinen nach außen bilden. Bei größeren Duschräumen kann durch Aneinanderreihen von halb- bis dreiviertelkreisförmigen Elementen mit der jeweiligen Öffnung zur Raummitte eine Unterteilung in einzelne Duschabteile erfolgen.Apart from the use of the components to form a cylindrical shower cubicle, it is of course also possible to use a correspondingly larger, semicircular or quarter-circular element in order to separate shower compartments on a wall or in a corner, with the existing wall parts then completing the closing of the cubicles form outside. In larger shower rooms, rows of half to three-quarter circular elements with the respective opening to the center of the room can be divided into individual shower compartments.

Die Bodenelemente weisen eine kreisförmige Nut auf, deren Durchmesser genau dem Durchmesser der aus den Bogenelementen gebildeten zylindrischen Röhre entspricht. Dadurch ist es möglich, die einzelnen Bogenelemente sehr einfach und paßgenau auf das Bodenelement aufzusetzen und gegeneinander zu verbinden. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, daß das Bodenelement selbst zur Mitte hin ein Gefälle aufweist und im eingebauten Zustand in der Mitte eine Gullyöffnung angebracht ist, durch die das Duschwasser abläuft. Wegen der hohen Druckbelastung des Bodenelements ist es ferner sinnvoll eine entsprechende Oberflächenverstärkung anzubringen, wobei sich eine Schicht aus faserverstärktem Beton als besonders brauchbar erwiesen hat, da sie einerseits wirtschaftlich ist und andererseits das spätere Aufbringen einer Fliesen- oder Mosaiksteinkaschierung, wie sie für Duschen üblich ist, ermöglicht.The bottom elements have a circular groove, the diameter of which corresponds exactly to the diameter of the cylindrical tube formed from the arch elements. This makes it possible to place the individual arch elements very simply and precisely on the base element and to connect them to one another. According to the invention it is provided that the floor element itself has a slope towards the center and, in the installed state, a gully opening is provided in the center through which the shower water runs off. Because of the high pressure load on the floor element, it is also advisable to apply a suitable surface reinforcement, whereby a layer of fiber-reinforced concrete has proven to be particularly useful, since it is economical on the one hand and the later application of a tile or mosaic stone lamination, as is common for showers , enables.

Vom Prinzip her wäre es natürlich möglich, die Duschen nach oben offen zu lassen, vorzugsweise wird jedoch als Spritzschutz ein entsprechendes Deckelelement verwendet. Aus fabrikationstechnischen Gründen hat dieses vorzugsweise die gleiche Form wie das Bodenelement, wobei die Vertiefung einen gewissen Gewölbeeffekt hervorruft. Alternativ kann jedoch auch eine einfache planparallele Platte verwendet werden, wobei sogar die kreisförmige Nut entfallen kann, da die Röhre in sich stabil ist und das Deckelelement somit keine Haltefunktionen mehr erfüllen muß.In principle, it would of course be possible to leave the showers open at the top, but a corresponding cover element is preferably used as a splash guard. For reasons of manufacturing technology, this preferably has the same shape as the base element, the depression causing a certain vault effect. Alternatively, however, a simple plane-parallel plate can also be used, and even the circular groove can be omitted, since the tube is stable in itself and the cover element therefore no longer has to perform holding functions.

Die Bogenelemente, aus denen die Wand der Dusche gebildet werden soll, stellen Zylinderabschnitte dar, welche parallel zur Zylinderachse geschnitten sind. Der gesamte Kreisumfang wird dabei durch 3-8, vorzugsweise 4-6, Elemente gebildet, welche an den senkrechten Kanten zur Verbesserung der Befestigung jeweils ein Nut- bzw. ein Federelement oder entsprechende Stufenfalze aufweisen. Zur Befestigung in den Boden- und Deckelelementen ist jeweils ein Federelement vorgesehen, wobei jedoch die in diese Elemente eingeschnittene Nut auch so breit sein kann, daß sie der Plattendicke entspricht, wodurch dann ein gesondertes Federelement entfällt.The arch elements from which the wall of the shower is to be formed represent cylinder sections which are cut parallel to the cylinder axis. The entire circumference is formed by 3-8, preferably 4-6, elements which each have a tongue or groove element or corresponding step folds on the vertical edges to improve the fastening. A spring element is provided in each case for fastening in the base and cover elements, but the groove cut into these elements can also be so wide that it corresponds to the plate thickness, as a result of which a separate spring element is then omitted.

Da die Bogenelemente sehr leicht sind, ist es möglich, diese in einer Länge zu fertigen, die der maximalen Geschoßhöhe entspricht (z.B. 2,80 m), und die am jeweiligen Anbringungsort nicht erforderliche Länge wegzuschneiden. Da solch lange Platten jedoch schlecht zu transportieren sind, ist es alternativ möglich, auch in der Länge eine Unterteilung vorzunehmen und beispielsweise Teilstücke mit 1 m, 50 cm und 10 cm Höhe vorzusehen, welche wiederum über Nut- und Federelemente aufeinander aufgesteckt und mit entsprechenden Kunststoffklebern verbunden werden können. Für die genaue Höhenanpassung der Duschkabine ist dann nur noch ein geringfügiger Verschnitt erforderlich.Since the arch elements are very light, it is possible to manufacture them in a length that corresponds to the maximum storey height (for example 2.80 m) and to cut away the length that is not required at the respective installation site. However, since such long plates are difficult to transport, it is alternatively possible to subdivide the length and, for example, to provide sections with a height of 1 m, 50 cm and 10 cm, which in turn are plugged onto one another via tongue and groove elements and with appropriate plastic adhesives can be connected. For the exact height adjustment of the shower cabin only a small amount of waste is then required.

Es hat sich als außerordentlich vorteilhaft erwiesen, für die Anbringung der Einstiegsöffnungen und der Installationsöffnungen die Oberfläche der Bogenelemente mit einem rechteckigen Raster zu überziehen, welches einen Rasterabstand von 1-10, vorzugsweise 2-5 cm, aufweist. Auf oder parallel zu diesem Raster können dann die entsprechenden Öffnungen ausgeschnitten werden bzw. Nuten und Durchlässe für Installationsleitungen angebracht werden. Das Rastermuster kann dabei auf der Innen- und Außenseite der Bogenelemente gleich oder auf der Innenseite entsprechend dem geringeren Umfang verkleinert sein. Durch die Rasterung ist es insbesondere möglich, auf eine Abstandsmessung auf der Rundung zu verzichten.It has proven to be extremely advantageous to cover the surface of the arch elements with a rectangular grid, which has a grid spacing of 1-10, preferably 2-5 cm, for the attachment of the entry openings and the installation openings. The corresponding openings can then be cut out on or parallel to this grid, or grooves and passages for installation lines can be provided. The grid pattern can be the same on the inside and outside of the arch elements or reduced on the inside according to the smaller extent. The grid makes it possible in particular to dispense with a distance measurement on the curve.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Bauelemente erlauben, wie oben gesagt, eine relativ große Variation bezüglich der Höhe und Ausstattung der Dusche. Lediglich der Durchmesser ist durch die Wahl der entsprechenden Bodenplatte und Bogenelemente festgelegt, so daß in sofern für verschiedene Durchmesser verschiedene Bausätze gefertigt werden müssen. Da aber eine genaue Anpassung an den Verwendungsort selten erforderlich ist, ist es möglich, mit einer geringen Typenzahl, beispielsweise mit Durchmessern von 80 cm, 1 m, 1,20 m und beispielsweise 2 m für die "Viertelkreisdusche" auszukommen.As mentioned above, the components according to the invention allow a relatively large variation in the height and equipment of the shower. Only the diameter is determined by the choice of the appropriate base plate and arch elements, so that different kits have to be manufactured for different diameters. However, since exact adaptation to the place of use is rarely required, it is possible to use a small number of types, for example with diameters of 80 cm, 1 m, 1.20 m and for example 2 m for the "quarter-circle shower".

Zum Aufbau von Rundduschen aus den erfindungsgemäßen Elementen wird zunächst das Bodenelement auf die gewünschte Form zugeschnitten, beispielsweise unerwünschte Ecken entfernt oder aus der Platte ein entsprechendes Segment ausgeschnitten sowie gegebenenfalls ein Gullyloch in gewünschter Größe und Lage eingearbeitet. Die fertige Bodenplatte wird vollflächig mit Mörtel an der Verwendungsstelle verlegt oder verklebt und darauf die Bogenelemente, die zuvor auf passende Länge geschnitten wurden, mit Klebstoff in die Nut des Bodens eingesteckt und auch gegeneinander eingesteckt und verklebt. Soweit nicht ein vollständiges Segment als Öffnung bereits weggelassen wurde, wird eine entsprechende Öffnung in die Wand eingeschnitten, wobei diese Öffnung nicht in einer Platte verlaufen muß, sondern auch über mehrere Platten übergreifen kann. Soweit es gewünscht ist, kann dabei gegen das Bodenelement ein gewisser Sockel stehenbleiben, der zusätzlich ein Heraustreten des Wassers verhindert oder das Element bis zur Bodenplatte weggeschnitten werden, um Beispielsweise einen behindertengerechten Zugang zu schaffen. Soweit in der fertigen Kabine der Einstieg nicht offen bleibt oder durch einen losen Duschvorhang verschlossen wird, sondern eine feste Tür vorgesehen ist, die entweder in Scharnieren beweglich ist oder in entsprechenden Schienen geführt wird, kann oberhalb der Tür die Öffnung entsprechend vergrößert werden, um die Be- und Entlüftung zu bewirken oder entsprechende Be- und Entlüftungsöffnungen zusätzlich in die Wand eingeschnitten werden. Je nach dem wo dies bei der Aufstellung erforderlich ist, können auch die Öffnungen für die entsprechenden Installationssysteme (Licht, Wasser) in den Wand- und Deckenbereich eingeschnitten werden, wobei es durch die Weichheit des verwendeten Schaummaterials außerordentlich leicht ist, auch Nuten einzufräsen, in denen entsprechende Leitungen verlegt werden.To build up circular showers from the elements according to the invention, the floor element is first cut to the desired shape, for example unwanted corners are removed or a corresponding segment is cut out of the plate and, if appropriate, a gully hole of the desired size and position is incorporated. The finished base plate is covered with the entire surface Mortar laid or glued at the point of use and then the arch elements, which had previously been cut to the appropriate length, inserted into the groove of the floor with adhesive and also inserted and glued to one another. Unless a complete segment has already been omitted as an opening, a corresponding opening is cut into the wall, this opening not having to run in one plate, but can also span over several plates. As far as it is desired, a certain base can stand against the floor element, which additionally prevents water from escaping or the element can be cut away to the floor plate, for example to provide access for the disabled. Insofar as the entrance in the finished cabin does not remain open or is closed by a loose shower curtain, but a fixed door is provided, which can either be hinged or guided in corresponding rails, the opening above the door can be enlarged accordingly by the To effect ventilation and corresponding ventilation openings are additionally cut into the wall. Depending on where this is required for the installation, the openings for the corresponding installation systems (light, water) can be cut into the wall and ceiling area, whereby it is extremely easy to mill grooves, due to the softness of the foam material used where appropriate lines are laid.

Andererseits ist dieses Schaummaterial nicht genügend stabil, um auf Zug oder Druck beanspruchte Installationsteile (Hähne, Haltegriffe etc.) direkt darin, beispielsweise über Dübel, zu befestigen. Aus diesem Grund kann an den notwendigen Stellen Teile des Wandmaterials ausgeschnitten und dafür Wandteile aus festerem Material, beispielsweise Leichtbeton, in diese Stellen eingeklebt werden, an denen man dann die Installationseinrichtungen befestigt.On the other hand, this foam material is not sufficiently stable to fix installation parts (taps, grab handles, etc.) that are subject to tension or pressure directly in them, for example using dowels. For this reason, parts of the wall material can be cut out at the necessary points and wall parts made of firmer material, for example lightweight concrete, can be cut into these places be glued, to which one then fastens the installation devices.

Die Innenseite der Duschkabine wird einerseits zur Isolierung gegen Feuchtigkeit und andererseits zur Erhöhung der Festigkeit anschließend mit einer gewebeverstärkten, wasserfesten Kunststoffbeschichtung überzogen, wobei Gewebe aus entsprechend festem Kunststoff oder Glasfasern verwendet werden können. Der Innenraum kann danach in an sich bekannter Weise durch in Mörtel verlegte Fliesen oder Mosaiksteinchen ausgekleidet werden.The inside of the shower cubicle is then covered on the one hand for insulation against moisture and on the other hand for increased strength with a fabric-reinforced, waterproof plastic coating, whereby fabrics made of appropriately strong plastic or glass fibers can be used. The interior can then be lined in a manner known per se with tiles or mosaic tiles laid in mortar.

In entsprechender Weise kann auch die Außenwand der fertigen Kabine mit einer gewebeverstärkten Kunststoffbeschichtung versehen werden. Da diese jedoch im Normalfall nicht mit großen Wassermengen in Berührung kommt, kann hier auch eine mechanisch-hydraulische Abbindeschicht, beispielsweise aus Mörtel, zur Abdeckung verwendet werden, auf die dann aus optischen Gründen noch ein Putz-, Tapeten-, Fliesen-, Naturstein-, Mosaik- oder Holzbelag aufgebracht wird. Da dieser Belag sich der Rundung der Dusche anpassen muß, darf bei Fliesen-, Stein- oder Holzbelag die Breite der Einzelstücke in Richtung des Umfangs der Duschkabine eine Breite von 5-8 cm nicht überschreiten, so daß beispielsweise Riemenfliesen oder Mosaikbelegung sich als besonders günstig erweisen.In a corresponding manner, the outer wall of the finished cabin can also be provided with a fabric-reinforced plastic coating. However, since this does not normally come into contact with large amounts of water, a mechanical-hydraulic setting layer, for example made of mortar, can also be used for covering, on which, for optical reasons, plaster, wallpaper, tiles, natural stone , Mosaic or wood covering is applied. Since this covering must adapt to the curvature of the shower, the width of the individual pieces in the direction of the circumference of the shower cubicle must not exceed a width of 5-8 cm in the case of tile, stone or wood covering, so that, for example, belt tiles or mosaic coverings are particularly favorable prove.

In den beigefügten Zeichnungen ist die Erfindung näher erläutert, ohne daß dadurch der Schutzumfang beschränkt sein soll.

In der Figur 1 ist im einzelnen die Bodenplatte 1 mit einer eingefrästen Nut 2 wiedergegeben, wobei zusätzlich 2 Hilfslinien eingezeichnet sind, die die Diagonale der quadratischen Bodenplatte und deren Mitte markieren. Die Bodenplatte weist beispielsweise eine Kantenlänge bzw. einen äußeren Umfang der eingeschnittenen Nut von 115 cm und einen inneren Durchmesser der Nut von 100 cm auf.In FIG. 1 , the base plate 1 is shown in detail with a milled groove 2, 2 additional lines being drawn in, which mark the diagonal of the square base plate and its center. The base plate has, for example, an edge length or an outer circumference of the cut groove of 115 cm and an inner diameter of the groove of 100 cm.

Die Figur 2 zeigt einen Schnitt durch die Bodenplatte 1 gemäß Figur 1 entlang einer Diagonalen. Die äußere Höhe der Platte beträgt dabei 7,5 cm, in der Mitte 5,5 cm, so daß sich insgesamt ein Gefälle von 2 cm auf eine Länge von 50 cm ergibt. Aus zeichentechnischen Gründen sind die Höhen nicht maßstabsgerecht wiedergegeben. FIG. 2 shows a section through the base plate 1 according to FIG. 1 along a diagonal. The outer height of the plate is 7.5 cm, in the middle 5.5 cm, so that there is a total gradient of 2 cm over a length of 50 cm. For technical reasons, the heights are not shown to scale.

Figur 3 zeigt ein erfindungsgemäßes Bogenelement 3 mit den Nut- und Federelementen 4, 5 und einer Andeutung einer Oberflächenrasterung, wobei wiederum aus zeichentechnischen Gründen die ganze Anordnung nicht maßstabsgerecht ist.
Die Länge des Elements beträgt z.B. 2,40 m, der äußere Bogen 60,2 cm, der innere Bogen 52,4 cm bei einer Dicke von 7,5 cm.
FIG. 3 shows an arch element 3 according to the invention with the tongue and groove elements 4, 5 and a hint of a surface pattern, the entire arrangement again not being to scale for drawing reasons.
The length of the element is, for example, 2.40 m, the outer arch 60.2 cm, the inner arch 52.4 cm with a thickness of 7.5 cm.

Die Figur 4 zeigt sechs Bogenelemente 3 in einem horizontalen Schnitt nach dem Zusammenfügen zu der erfindungsgemäßen Runddusche. Die Wandstärke und die Nut- und Federelemente 4, 5 sind entsprechend vergrößert dargestellt. FIG. 4 shows six arch elements 3 in a horizontal section after assembly to form the circular shower according to the invention. The wall thickness and the tongue and groove elements 4, 5 are shown enlarged accordingly.

Figur 5 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäß zusammengesetzte Runddusche mit dem Bodenelement 1 und einem entsprechend angedeuteten Gully 7, drei sichtbaren Bogenelementen 3, von denen das vordere überwiegend weggeschnitten ist, um eine Einstiegsöffnung 8 zu bilden, welche auch in die benachbarten Bogenelemente übergreift, so daß in dem stehengebliebenen Sockelteil 11 die entsprechende Nut- und Federverbindung 4, 5 zu sehen ist. Die Figur wird noch oben durch ein Deckelelement 6 abgeschlossen, in welches eine Installationsöffnung 9, beispielsweise für das Anbringen einer Lampe, eingeschnitten ist. Auf dem rechten Bogenelement 3 ist zusätzlich noch die Rasterung angedeutet, die als Montagehilfe dient.4 Figure 5 shows a circular shower assembled according to the invention with the floor element 1 and a correspondingly indicated gully 7, three visible arch elements 3, of which the front is mostly cut away to form an entry opening 8, which also extends into the adjacent arch elements, so that in the stopped base part 11, the corresponding tongue and groove connection 4, 5 can be seen. The figure is completed at the top by a cover element 6, into which an installation opening 9, for example for attaching a lamp, is cut. On the right-hand arch element 3, the grid that serves as an assembly aid is also indicated. 4

Figur 6 zeigt sechs Bogenelemente 3, welche wie in Figur 4 zu einer Runddusche zusammengefügt sind. Im Unterschied zu Figur 4 sind die Teile jedoch über Stufenfalze (4˝) verbunden. FIG. 6 shows six arch elements 3 which, as in FIG. 4, are combined to form a circular shower. In contrast to Figure 4, the parts are connected via step folds (4˝).
