Definitions
- the present invention relates to a prefabricated element for the operating connection of a service block to a general service liquid or fluid supply and discharge system.
- the basic water supply system has to be set up for such rooms as the bathroom, toilets, kitchen, laundry and so on.
- the user of the building therefore requires a number of supply and discharge points for service liquids and fluids, such as water and gas.
- these supply and discharge points have to be connected in advance to the general supply and discharge system of the building when the user sets up the various service blocks, such as washbasins, washing machines, dishwashers, bidets, radiators, baths, lavatory bowls and so on.
- this connection takes place using frameworks known as templates, which are attached to a wall using the normal fixing methods. These frameworks support the tubes and their attachments for the service blocks during the setup of the general supply and discharge system for the building and the connection of the conduits to the system. On completion of the connection operations, the framework is covered with a lightweight coating or inserted within a second wall built over the existing one to which it was fixed.
- a second solution in the known art for the operating connection of a service block tc a general service liquid or fluid supply and discharge system is the use of a prefabricated element, consisting of a container body and supply and/or discharge piping. These conduits are arranged within the container body, from which they protrude with delivery and/or discharge attachments which can be connected to the general supply and discharge system and service block. Attachments are also provided to fix the container body to an existing wall in the building. After wall mounting, the container body is inserted in a second wall, built over the existing one, from which the delivery and/or discharge connectors to the service blocks are attached.
- a third solution in the known art is known from the german document DE 33 27 883, according to whom the prefabricated element comprises: a container body, at least one supply conduit, which is disposed inside the container body and protrudes from it with a delivery connector and a discharge connector, and a possible discharge conduit, which is disposed inside the container body and protrudes from it with a delivery connector and a discharge connector.
- This known prefabricated element is charaterised in that it can be installed where there is no existing wall, so that the only wall involved in the installation is the one within which the element will be incorporated later, thus avoiding the reduction of the space available in the room.
- this known prefabricated element contains fixing means to attach the container body to the floor of a building in such a way, that the container body remains upright and can be incorporated after floor mounting within a wall built at a later date, with the delivery and discharge connectors protruding from it.
- the prefabricated element can be fixed to the floor, it can be placed directly on the site where the wall in which it will be incorporated will be built in accordance with the plans, and which will be the wall of the room itself. This eliminates all the disadvantages created by the need to have an existing wall to which the prefabricated element is fixed.
- the essential object of the present invention is to improve this known prefabricated element in the case when the prefabricated element is fixed to a bare floor without a finished covering, in order to have easy and convenient access to the connectors for their attachments to the general supply and discharge system and the various service blocks.
- Claim 2 refers to a particular embodiment of the prefabricated element according to the invention.
- the delivery and discharge connectors of the supply and discharge conduits are situated at the bottom, close to the bare floor on which the container body is fixed. This gives convenient connection at bare floor level of the prefabricated element to the general supply and discharge system, the conduits which are laid down being later incorporated in the finished flooring.
- the prefabricated element is advantageously provided with support means for the service block. Especially for washbasins, bidets and lavatory bowls, it provides a practical and elegant support solution, as in this way they are supported directly by the prefabricated element concealed within the wall, without the need for extra, visible support systems.
- the container body has a compact, closed parallelepiped shape. This is the most suitable shape for the ideal incorporation of the prefabricated element in the wall.
- the fixing systems can be adjusted in height, to regulate the distance of the container body from the floor to which it is fixed. In this way, it is possible to adjust the height of the delivery and discharge connectors to that of the various service blocks available on the market.

Description
- The present invention relates to a prefabricated element for the operating connection of a service block to a general service liquid or fluid supply and discharge system.
- As we know, in new buildings and on the restoration of existing ones, the basic water supply system has to be set up for such rooms as the bathroom, toilets, kitchen, laundry and so on. The user of the building therefore requires a number of supply and discharge points for service liquids and fluids, such as water and gas. Obviously, these supply and discharge points have to be connected in advance to the general supply and discharge system of the building when the user sets up the various service blocks, such as washbasins, washing machines, dishwashers, bidets, radiators, baths, lavatory bowls and so on.
- At the moment, according to a first known method, this connection takes place using frameworks known as templates, which are attached to a wall using the normal fixing methods. These frameworks support the tubes and their attachments for the service blocks during the setup of the general supply and discharge system for the building and the connection of the conduits to the system. On completion of the connection operations, the framework is covered with a lightweight coating or inserted within a second wall built over the existing one to which it was fixed.
- The disadvantage of this solution is that it is possible only where there is an existing wall, to which the frame can be fixed. In addition, the frame, and the conduits and connectors it supports, whether visible, covered or inserted in a second wall, create a permanent encumbrance which reduces the useful volume of the room. A further disadvantage is that a considerable amount of work is necessary on the site to lay the conduits for connection to the general supply and discharge system and for the assessment of their ideal layout, then for the connection of the conduits to the delivery and discharge attachments for the service blocks.
- A second solution in the known art for the operating connection of a service block tc a general service liquid or fluid supply and discharge system is the use of a prefabricated element, consisting of a container body and supply and/or discharge piping. These conduits are arranged within the container body, from which they protrude with delivery and/or discharge attachments which can be connected to the general supply and discharge system and service block. Attachments are also provided to fix the container body to an existing wall in the building. After wall mounting, the container body is inserted in a second wall, built over the existing one, from which the delivery and/or discharge connectors to the service blocks are attached.
- This solution of the known art too, however, presents a disadvantage, in that it is possible only where a wall already exists to which the prefabricated element can be attached. After the prefabricated element has been inserted in the wall, it is therefore necessary to build a second wall over the existing one, significantly reducing the available space in the room.
- A third solution in the known art is known from the
german document DE 33 27 883, according to whom the prefabricated element comprises: a container body, at least one supply conduit, which is disposed inside the container body and protrudes from it with a delivery connector and a discharge connector, and a possible discharge conduit, which is disposed inside the container body and protrudes from it with a delivery connector and a discharge connector. This known prefabricated element is charaterised in that it can be installed where there is no existing wall, so that the only wall involved in the installation is the one within which the element will be incorporated later, thus avoiding the reduction of the space available in the room. - For this purpose this known prefabricated element contains fixing means to attach the container body to the floor of a building in such a way, that the container body remains upright and can be incorporated after floor mounting within a wall built at a later date, with the delivery and discharge connectors protruding from it.
- Since the prefabricated element can be fixed to the floor, it can be placed directly on the site where the wall in which it will be incorporated will be built in accordance with the plans, and which will be the wall of the room itself. This eliminates all the disadvantages created by the need to have an existing wall to which the prefabricated element is fixed.
- The essential object of the present invention is to improve this known prefabricated element in the case when the prefabricated element is fixed to a bare floor without a finished covering, in order to have easy and convenient access to the connectors for their attachments to the general supply and discharge system and the various service blocks.
- This object is attained by a prefabricated element according to
claim 1. - In fact, if, in presence of a bare floor without finished covering the delivery and discharge connectors advantageously protrude from the same surface of the container body which is directed towards the service block
there is a better working environment. -
Claim 2 refers to a particular embodiment of the prefabricated element according to the invention. - According to the
claims - According to
claim 5 the prefabricated element is advantageously provided with support means for the service block. Especially for washbasins, bidets and lavatory bowls, it provides a practical and elegant support solution, as in this way they are supported directly by the prefabricated element concealed within the wall, without the need for extra, visible support systems. - According to claim 6 the container body has a compact, closed parallelepiped shape. This is the most suitable shape for the ideal incorporation of the prefabricated element in the wall.
- Finally, according to claim 7 the fixing systems can be adjusted in height, to regulate the distance of the container body from the floor to which it is fixed. In this way, it is possible to adjust the height of the delivery and discharge connectors to that of the various service blocks available on the market.

bathtub 6, to a general service liquid or fluid supply and discharge system. Theprefabricated element 1e comprises acontainer body 8 and at least asupply conduit 61 for the service liquid or fluid. Twosupply conduits 61 are shown in the figure, one for hot water and the other for cold water. Thesupply conduits 61 are respectively disposed inside thecontainer body 8 and protrude from it with adelivery connector 62 and with adischarge connector 63. Thedelivery connectors 62 are operatively connectable to the general supply and discharge system and thedischarge connectors 63 are connectable to thebathtub 6. - An example of a third embodiment of a
