Bekannt sind Bauteilsätze für Duschkabinen, die ein oder mehrere Wandelemente sowie ein oder mehrere Türblätter umfassen, wobei das Türblatt in der Regel mit zwei Scharnieren an dem Wandelement befestigt ist. Zur Montage der Bauteile der Duschkabine sind Scharniere unterschiedlichster Ausbildung bekannt. Diese Scharniere sollen zum einen eine stabile Konstruktion ermöglichen und sich zum anderen einfach montieren lassen. Außerdem sollten die flachen Oberflächen der mit den Beschlägen verbundenen Wandelemente und Türen möglichst erhalten bleiben. Dies ist aus ästhetischen Gründen von Bedeutung und erleichtert auch die Reinigung der Wandelemente und der Türen. Besonders an Glas- und Kunststoffwänden werden vorspringende Teile deshalb als störend empfunden. Ferner sollen die mit Scharnieren versehenen Anordnungen nach der Montage der Scharniere ein sauberes und ansprechendes Erscheinungsbild abgeben. Der Spalt zwischen Türen und Wänden sollte deshalb über seine Länge gleichmäßig breit und nicht zu groß sein. Insbesondere bei Duschkabinen ist es optisch ansprechender, wenn der obere Rand von Wänden und Türen bündig verläuft.Shower cubicles are generally assembled from prefabricated components on site. Component sets are known for shower cubicles, which comprise one or more wall elements and one or more door leaves, wherein the door leaf is usually secured with two hinges on the wall element. For mounting the components of the shower cubicle hinges of various types are known. These hinges should allow for a stable construction and be easy to assemble for another. In addition, the flat surfaces of the wall elements and doors connected to the fittings should as far as possible be preserved. This is important for aesthetic reasons and also facilitates the cleaning of the wall elements and the doors. Especially on glass and plastic walls projecting parts are therefore perceived as disturbing. In addition, the hinged arrangements after assembly of the hinges should give a clean and attractive appearance. The gap between doors and walls should therefore be uniform across its length and not too large. Especially in shower cabins, it is visually appealing when the upper edge of walls and doors is flush.

Das erfindungsgemäße Scharnier weist eine wandseitige Befestigungseinrichtung und eine türseitige Befestigungseinrichtung zur Befestigung des Scharniers an einer Wand und an einer Tür auf, wobei die Befestigungseinrichtungen in in der Wand und in der Tür vorgesehene Aufnahmeöffnungen einsetzbar sind und die Befestigungseinrichtungen zwei linear gegeneinander verschiebbare Teile aufweisen. Durch das Verschieben der beiden Teile derThe hinge according to the invention has a wall-side fastening device and a door-side fastening device for fastening the hinge to a wall and to a door, wherein the fastening means are provided in provided in the wall and in the door receiving openings and the fastening means comprise two linearly mutually displaceable parts. By moving the two parts of the

Befestigungseinrichtungen können die beiden Teile auf den jeweiligen durch die Anbringung der Aufnahmeöffnungen vorgegebenen Abstand der Aufnahmeöffnungen eingestellt werden. Somit können Ungenauigkeiten der Abstände der Aufnahmeöffnungen, die bei der Anbringung der Aufnahmeöffnungen entstanden sind, durch ein Verschieben der beiden Teile zueinander ausgeglichen werden.Fastening means, the two parts can be adjusted to the respective predetermined by the attachment of the receiving openings spacing of the receiving openings. Thus, inaccuracies in the distances of the receiving openings, which are incurred in the attachment of the receiving openings, be compensated by moving the two parts to each other.

Wenn die Befestigungseinrichtungen mittels einer Gewindespindel gegeneinander verschiebbar sind, können die beiden verschiebbaren Teile sehr präzise und einfach auf den jeweiligen Abstand der Aufnahmeöffnungen eingestellt werden.If the fastening devices are displaceable against each other by means of a threaded spindle, the two displaceable parts can be adjusted very precisely and easily to the respective spacing of the receiving openings.

Vorteilhafterweise sind die Aufnahmeöffnungen als Sacklöcher ausgebildet, da es aus ästhetischen Gründen und zu Zwecken der Reinigung der Wandelemente und der Türen wünschenswert ist, wenn insbesondere die äußere sichtbare Oberfläche der Wandelemente und der Türen eine glatte, keine Vorsprünge aufweisende Oberfläche bildet.Advantageously, the receiving openings are formed as blind holes, since it is desirable for aesthetic reasons and for the purpose of cleaning the wall elements and the doors, in particular when the outer visible surface of the wall elements and the doors forms a smooth, non-protruding surface.

Die Befestigungseinrichtungen weisen zweckmäßigerweise Befestigungselemente auf, die in die Aufnahmeöffnungen eingreifen, und somit für einen optimalen Halt der Befestigungseinrichtungen an der Wand und/oder Türe sorgen.The fastening devices expediently have fastening elements which engage in the receiving openings, and thus ensure optimum retention of the fastening devices on the wall and / or door.

Die Befestigungseinrichtungen können mit Führungsmitteln versehen sein, damit die gegeneinander verschiebbaren Teile in einer Linie miteinander fluchten. Die Führungsmittel dienen also zur gegenseitigen präzisen Ausrichtung der beiden gegeneinander verschiebbaren Teile.The fastening means may be provided with guide means, so that the mutually displaceable parts are aligned with each other in a line. The guide means thus serve for mutual precise alignment of the two mutually displaceable parts.

Vorzugsweise kann das eine Teil mindestens einen vorspringenden Steg und/oder Bolzen oder dergleichen aufweisen, der in mindestens eine an dem anderen Teil vorgesehene Aufnahmeöffnung einsteckbar ist. Auf diese Weise lassen sich die Führungsmittel auf einfache konstruktive Weise realisieren.Preferably, the one part may have at least one projecting web and / or pin or the like which can be inserted into at least one receiving opening provided on the other part. In this way, the guide means can be realized in a simple constructive manner.

Besonders schnell und zuverlässig können die Befestigungseinrichtungen mit der Wand und der Tür mittels eines Klebstoffes verbunden werden.Particularly fast and reliable attachment means can be connected to the wall and the door by means of an adhesive.

Die erfindungsgemäße Duschkabine verfügt über Scharniere mit einer wandseitigen und einer türseitigen Befestigungseinrichtung, die in Aufnahmeöffnungen einsetzbar sind, die in der Wand oder Tür vorgesehen sind, wobei die Befestigungseinrichtungen zwei gegeneinander verschiebbare Teile aufweisen.The shower cubicle according to the invention has hinges with a wall-side and a door-side fastening device, which can be used in receiving openings, which are provided in the wall or door, wherein the fastening means comprise two mutually displaceable parts.

Fig. 1 zeigt ein Wandelement 10 und eine Tür 11, die mittels zweier Scharniere 12 verschwenkbar miteinander verbunden sind. Das Wandelement 10 und die Tür 11 gehören vorzugsweise zu einer aus Glas- oder Kunststoffelementen gefertigten Duschkabine. Fig. 1 shows a wall element 10 and a door 11 which are pivotally connected to each other by means of two hinges 12. The wall element 10 and the door 11 preferably belong to a shower cubicle made of glass or plastic elements.

Fig. 2 zeigt ein Plattenelement 20, das beispielsweise das Wandelement 10 oder die Tür 11 sein kann (siehe Fig. 1), in das Aufnahmeöffnungen 21 zur Aufnahme von Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 eingebracht sind. Die Aufnahmeöffnungen 21 sind vorzugsweise Sacklöcher. Auf die Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 sind Laschen 23, die mittels eines Bolzens 24 relativ zueinander verschwenkbar sind, aufsetzbar. Wenn die Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 in die Aufnahmeöffnungen 21 eingesteckt und befestigt sind und die Laschen 23 auf die Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 aufgesetzt und justiert sind, können die Laschen 23 mittels Haftklebebänder 25 an dem Plattenelement 20 festgeklebt werden. Sinnvollerweise werden die Haftklebebänder 25 schon vor der Montage an die Laschen 23 angeklebt. Die freie, dem Plattenelement 20 zugewandte Seite der Haftklebebänder 25 ist mit einer hier nicht näher dargestellten Schutzfolie gegen ein vorzeitiges Ankleben des Haftklebebandes 25 an das Plattenelement 20 geschützt. Nach dem genauen Justieren der Laschen 23 wird die Schutzfolie mittels einer hier ebenfalls nicht erkennbaren, über das Scharnier 12 hinausstehenden Abziehlasche von dem Haftklebeband 25 abgezogen, so dass die Laschen 23 nur noch gegen das Plattenelement 20 gepresst werden müssen, um die Laschen 23 mit dem Plattenelement 20 zuverlässig zu verbinden. Durch die vorstehende Abziehlasche der Schutzfolie ist es möglich die Schutzfolie von dem Haftklebeband 25 abzuziehen, ohne die Laschen 23 vollkommen von dem Plattenelement 20 abzunehmen. Fig. 2 shows a plate member 20, which may be, for example, the wall member 10 or the door 11 (see Fig. 1 ), are introduced into the receiving openings 21 for receiving fastening means 22. The receiving openings 21 are preferably blind holes. On the fastening means 22 are tabs 23 which are pivotable relative to each other by means of a bolt 24, can be placed. When the fasteners 22 are inserted and secured in the receiving apertures 21 and the tabs 23 are seated and adjusted on the fasteners 22, the tabs 23 may be adhered to the plate member 20 by pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes 25. It makes sense that the pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes 25 are adhered to the tabs 23 even before assembly. The free, the plate member 20 facing side of the pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes 25 is protected with a protective film not shown here against premature sticking of the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 25 to the plate member 20. After the exact adjustment of the tabs 23, the protective film is removed by a likewise not recognizable, beyond the hinge 12 Abziehlasche of the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 25, so that the tabs 23 only have to be pressed against the plate member 20 to the tabs 23 with the Reliable to connect plate element 20. By the above peel-off tab of the protective film, it is possible to peel off the protective film from the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 25 without completely removing the tabs 23 from the plate member 20.

Fig. 3 zeigt die Laschen 23 des Scharniers 12 (siehe Fig. 1), die an einem Wandelement 10 und einer Türe 11 angebracht sind. Die Laschen 23 sind auf Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 aufgesetzt. Mittels Madenschrauben 30 können die Laschen 23 in vertikaler Richtung verstellt werden. Somit können durch ein Betätigen der Madenschrauben 30 die Oberkanten des Wandelementes 10 und der Türe 11 bündig aufeinander ausgerichtet werden. Sollte die Befestigungseinrichtung 22 nicht genau horizontal ausgerichtet sein, sondern um einen bestimmten Winkel von der Horizontalen abweichen, so kann diese Abweichung ebenfalls durch die Madenschrauben 30 ausgeglichen werden. Durch eine Madenschraube 31 kann die Lasche 23 in horizontaler Richtung ausgerichtet werden. Beim Eindrehen der Madenschraube 31 wird ein Keil 32 nach unten gedrückt, wodurch die Lasche 23 an dem Wandelement 10 nach links gedrückt wird. Beim Herausdrehen der Madenschraube 31 gleitet der Keil 32 nach oben, wobei eine Druckfeder 33 die Lasche 23 nach rechts verschiebt. Somit kann durch Verstellen der Madenschraube 31 die Breite eines Spaltes 34 zwischen Wandelement 10 und Türe 11 verändert werden. Fig. 3 shows the tabs 23 of the hinge 12 (see Fig. 1 ), which are attached to a wall element 10 and a door 11. The tabs 23 are mounted on fastening devices 22. By means of grub screws 30, the tabs 23 can be adjusted in the vertical direction. Thus, by pressing the grub screws 30, the upper edges of the wall element 10 and the Door 11 are aligned flush with each other. If the fastening device 22 is not exactly horizontal, but deviates by a certain angle from the horizontal, then this deviation can likewise be compensated by the grub screws 30. By a grub screw 31, the tab 23 can be aligned in the horizontal direction. When screwing the grub screw 31, a wedge 32 is pressed down, causing the tab 23 is pressed against the wall element 10 to the left. When unscrewing the grub screw 31, the wedge 32 slides upward, with a compression spring 33, the tab 23 moves to the right. Thus, by adjusting the grub screw 31, the width of a gap 34 between wall element 10 and door 11 can be changed.

Fig. 4 zeigt ein Befestigungselement 40, das zwei Teile 41 und 42 aufweist. Die Teile 41 und 42 sind durch Betätigen einer Gewindespindel 43 gegeneinander verschiebbar. Auf diese Weise kann der Abstand von Befestigungselementen 44 auf den Abstand von Aufnahmeöffnungen 45 schnell und einfach angepasst werden. Dies ist besonders dann vorteilhaft, wenn beim Anbringen der Aufnahmeöffnungen 45 Ungenauigkeiten aufgetreten sind. Das Teil 41 ist mit einem vorspringenden Steg 46 versehen, der in eine Aufnahmeöffnung 47 in dem Teil 42 einsteckbar ist. Somit ist durch das Zusammenwirken des Steges 46 und der Aufnahmeöffnung 47 ein Führungsmittel gegeben, durch das die Teile 41 und 42 in horizontaler Richtung in einer Linie ausgerichtet sind. Die Spindel 43 besitzt Öffnungen 48, in die beispielsweise ein Schraubenzieher, Nagel, dünner Stift oder dergleichen hineingesteckt werden kann, um die Spindel 43 beim Einstellen der Teile 41 und 42 auf den Abstand der Aufnahmeöffnungen 45 betätigen zu können. Das an dieser Ausführungsform der Befestigungseinrichtung 40 dargestellte Prinzip zum Einstellen der Befestigungseinrichtung 40 auf den Abstand der Aufnahmeöffnungen 45 ist auch bei anderen Befestigungseinrichtungen, die keine Befestigungselemente 44 aufweisen, möglich (siehe Fig. 2). Bei den in Fig. 2 dargestellten Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 werden deren Teile zunächst so weit zusammengeschoben bis sie in die Aufnahmeöffnungen 21 hineinpassen. Dann werden sie mittels der Spindel soweit auseinander geschoben, bis sie mit den Aufnahmeöffnungen 21 verspannt sind. Zusätzlich zu der Verspannung der Teile der Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 empfiehlt es sich, die Befestigungseinrichtungen 22 mittels eines Klebstoffes in den Aufnahmeöffnungen 21 zu befestigen. Fig. 4 shows a fastener 40 having two parts 41 and 42. The parts 41 and 42 are displaced by pressing a threaded spindle 43 against each other. In this way, the distance from fasteners 44 to the spacing of receiving apertures 45 can be quickly and easily adjusted. This is particularly advantageous if 45 inaccuracies have occurred when attaching the receiving openings. The part 41 is provided with a projecting web 46 which can be inserted into a receiving opening 47 in the part 42. Thus, by the cooperation of the web 46 and the receiving opening 47 is given a guide means by which the parts 41 and 42 are aligned in the horizontal direction in a line. The spindle 43 has openings 48, into which, for example, a screwdriver, nail, thin pin or the like can be inserted in order to operate the spindle 43 when adjusting the parts 41 and 42 to the spacing of the receiving openings 45 can. The principle illustrated in this embodiment of the fastening device 40 for adjusting the fastening device 40 to the spacing of the receiving openings 45 is also possible with other fastening devices which have no fastening elements 44 (see FIG Fig. 2 ). At the in Fig. 2 The fasteners 22 shown are first pushed together so far parts until they fit into the receiving openings 21. Then they are pushed apart by means of the spindle until they come with the Receiving openings 21 are braced. In addition to the tension of the parts of the fasteners 22, it is advisable to fasten the fasteners 22 by means of an adhesive in the receiving openings 21.
