Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a shower tray for use in shower cubicles. Shower trays have been provided heretofore each comprising a central wash basin whose bottom is at a lower position with an upstanding wall surround translated at its top into an outwardly directed ledge surround at an upper position, the ledge surround having a depending lip. A waste outlet is provided in the basin The basin of the shower tray is supported off a floor surface to provide a space for accommodation of piping and waste outlet fittings. Such shower trays have been made of ceramic material in which the depending lip is extended downwardly to form an integral side wall surround of depth greater than the depth of the basin to create such a space.
- Ceramic material is rigid and self-supporting when laid on a floor or surface. Such shower trays have also been made of plastics material which while it may be rigid is not generally self-supporting. Accordingly, the tray is not provided with an integral side wall surround and is supported off the floor or surface by a series of height-adjustable feet fixed to the bottom of the basin, and side wall panels are provided to close off the sides, or at least those sides requiring to be closed off. Normally, a shower cubicle is fitted into a corner of a bathroom/shower room and the shower tray requires only two sides to be closed off by side wall panels. There are some instances however where a shower cubicle is situated against one wall and the shower tray requires three sides to be closed off. Also, there are instances where a shower cubicle is erected on site with a tray fitted in an area defined by three walls and the shower tray only requires one wall to be closed off. Shower trays of plastics material have heretofore been constructed with a wooden board reinforcement incorporated into the undersurface of the basin to provide rigidity to the bottom of the basin and to provide anchorage for fasteners to hold the height-adjustable feet. A disadvantage of such shower tray is that while the basin is supported, the ledge surround is not. When a person steps into the shower tray, he/she sometimes steps onto the ledge surround first of all. With that part of the shower tray not supported by the height-adjustable feet and the side wall panels not imparting any support, the ledge surround gives slightly causing the person to feel the shower tray is unsafe.
- An object of the present invention is to obviate or mitigate this disadvantage.
- Accordingly, the present invention is a shower tray having a central basin with an upstanding wall surround, a ledge surround and a depending lip wherein the undersurface of the basin and the undersurface of the ledge surround are both provided with a board reinforcement incorporated thereinto, the tray having a plurality of height-adjustable feet provided spaced around the ledge surround reinforcement with at least one height-adjustable foot positioned substantially centrally of the basin reinforcement.
- Preferably, each height-adjustable foot comprises an upper anchorage member to be secured to the tray, a shank and a lower member to be positioned on a floor or surface, the shank and lower member being in a screw-threaded relationship to provide for height-adjustment and for stabilising the tray in a level positioning on the floor or surface.
- Preferably also, a wall surround panel is provided to enclose one, two or three sides of a tray depending on the number of sides to be closed off. Each wall surround panel is desirable of one piece construction. Each wall surround panel beneficially incorporates on its reverse side a series of upright reinforcements positioned to correspond with the positioning of the height-adjustable feet, one or more vertically spaced clips being desirably secured to each of said upright reinforcements and adapted, when the panel is fitted, to engage around the shank of a respective foot. The or each clip desirably has a mounting plate to be secured to the upright reinforcement. The back of the mounting plate of the clip, a side of the anchorage member and part of the circumference of the lower member of each foot are beneficially uprightly aligned whereby when the panel is fitted and the or each clip engaged around a corresponding shank, portions of the respective upright reinforcement abut against the uprightly aligned parts of the foot to impart support to the panel. A brace element may he provided between adjacent pairs of upright reinforcements.
