Abstract

The invention relates to a toilet construction comprising at least two adjacent toilet cubicles which respectively have a toilet and an access opening which can be closed by means of a door, said toilet cubicles being separated by means of a partition. According to the invention, the partition can be displaced between a separating position in which it separates the toilet cubicles from each other, and an unblocking position in which the two toilet cubicles together form an individual toilet cubicle. Alternatively, the partition can be displaced essentially perpendicularly to its wall plane in a shifted position in which the floor space of one toilet cubicle is enlarged and the floor space of the other toilet cubicle is reduced.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Toilettenanlage mit zumindest zwei nebeneinander angeordneten Toilettenkabinen, die jeweils ein Toilettenbecken und eine mittels einer Tür verschließbare Zugangsöffnung aufweisen und die durch eine Trennwand voneinander getrennt sind.The invention relates to a toilet installation with at least two juxtaposed toilet cubicles, each having a toilet bowl and a closable by means of a door access opening and which are separated by a partition wall.

Toilettenanlagen der genannten Art mit mehreren Toilettenkabinen finden sich insbesondere an Orten, an denen eine relativ große Anzahl von Menschen eine Toilette benutzen möchte, wie beispielsweise in öffentlichen Gebäuden, Restaurants, Bahnhöfen, Flughäfen, bei Veranstaltungen etc.. Um den vorhandenen Bauraum möglichst gut auszunützen und eine große Anzahl von Toilettenkabinen vorzusehen, besitzen die einzelnen Toilettenkabinen in der Regel eine relativ geringe Grundfläche. Diese ist zwar für nicht behinderte Menschen ausreichend, jedoch ist es Rollstuhlfahrern üblicherweise nicht möglich, mit dem Rollstuhl in eine Toilettenkabine hineinzufahren und die Toilette zu benutzen. Für Rollstuhlfahrer wird deshalb ein zusätzlicher behindertengerechter Toilettenraum als separate, räumlich getrennte Einrichtung vorgesehen, was von Rollstuhlfahrern in vielen Fällen als Ausgrenzung und Stigmatisierung empfunden wird. Ein behindertengerechter Toilettenraum benötigt eine relativ große Grundfläche, da der Rollstuhlfahrer die Möglichkeit haben muss, mit seinem Rollstuhl sowohl vor dem Toilettenbecken in einfacher Weise zu rangieren als auch den Rollstuhl wahlweise rechts oder links neben das Toilettenbecken zu stellen, um dann aus dem Rollstuhl auf das Toilettenbecken umsteigen zu können. Aufgrund des großen Platzbedarfs ist die Integration eines behindertengerechten Toilettenraums in eine herkömmliche Toilettenanlage in vielen Fällen unerwünscht, da dadurch die Anzahl an Toilettenkabinen verringert wird. Auf diese Weise ist eine effiziente Raumnutzung nicht gegeben, zumal es sich gezeigt hat, dass ein behindertengerechter Toilettenraum relativ selten genutzt wird. Eine Toilettenanlage mit den Merkmalen der Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 ist aus der JP-A-05 163 758 und aus der JP-A-03 202 562 bekannt.Toilet facilities of the type mentioned with several toilet cubicles can be found especially in places where a relatively large number of people would like to use a toilet, such as in public buildings, restaurants, train stations, airports, events etc. To make the most of the available space as well as possible and to provide a large number of toilet cubicles, the individual toilet cubicles usually have a relatively small footprint. Although this is sufficient for non-disabled people, however, it is usually wheelchair users not possible to drive with the wheelchair in a toilet cubicle and use the toilet. For wheelchair users, therefore, an additional toilet space suitable for the disabled is provided as a separate, spatially separated device, which wheelchair users in many Cases are perceived as exclusion and stigmatization. A handicapped accessible toilet space requires a relatively large footprint, since the wheelchair user must have the opportunity to rank with his wheelchair both in front of the toilet bowl in a simple way and to put the wheelchair either right or left of the toilet bowl, then from the wheelchair to the Change toilet bowl. Due to the large footprint, the integration of a disabled toilet room in a conventional toilet system is undesirable in many cases, as this reduces the number of toilet cubicles is reduced. In this way, an efficient use of space is not given, especially since it has been shown that a disabled toilet space is relatively rarely used. A toilet installation with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known from JP-A-05 163 758 and from the JP-A-03 202 562 known.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Toilettenanlage der genannten Art zu schaffen, in die ein behindertengerechter Toilettenraum bei gleichzeitig effizienter Raumausnutzung integriert ist.The invention has for its object to provide a toilet system of the type mentioned, in which a disabled toilet room is integrated with efficient use of space.

Diese Aufgabe wird in einer ersten erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung der Toilettenalage gemäss Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved in a first embodiment of the toilet according to claim 1 according to the invention.

Die Erfindung geht von der Grundüberlegung aus, den behindertengerechten Toilettenraum nicht als separate Einrichtung vorzuhalten, sondern im Bedarfsfall zwei übliche Toilettenkabinen zu einem großflächigen behindertengerechten Toilettenraum zu verbinden, indem die die Toilettenkabinen voneinander trennende Trennwand verstellt, verfahren oder entfernt wird. Solange sich die Trennwand in ihrer Trennstellung befindet, können die Toilettenkabinen in herkömmlicher Weise genutzt werden. Falls ein Rollstuhlfahrer eine Toilette benutzen möchte, kann er die Trennwand zwischen den beiden Toilettenkabinen durch eine vorzugsweise auf der Außenseite der Toilettenkabinen angeordnete Betätigungseinrichtung verstellen. Vor Initiierung der Verstellbewegung wird überprüft, ob beide Toilettenkabinen frei sind. Nach der Verstellung der Trennwand steht dem Rollstuhlfahrer ein einzelner Toilettenraum zur Verfügung, der die Gesamt-Grundfläche der beiden Toilettenkabinen besitzt und zwei Toilettenbecken aufweist. Die Toilettenbecken sind dabei so angeordnet, dass der Rollstuhlfahrer mit seinem Rollstuhl in einfacher Weise rechts neben das eine Toilettenbecken oder links neben das andere Toilettenbecken fahren kann. Auf diese Weise ist es dem Rollstuhlfahrer möglich, dasjenige Toilettenbecken auszuwählen, auf das er aus seinem Rollstuhl in für ihn bequemer Weise nach rechts oder links übersetzen kann. Sobald der Rollstuhlfahrer den Toilettenraum verlassen hat, kehrt die Trennwand vorzugsweise selbsttätig in ihre Trennstellung zurück, so dass dann wieder zwei unabhängige Toilettenkabinen zur Benutzung von nicht behinderten Menschen zur Verfügung stehen.The invention is based on the basic idea not to provide the disabled toilet space as a separate device, but in case of need to connect two standard toilet cabins to a large-scale disabled toilet space by the toilet cubicles separated from each other separating partition, moved or removed. As long as the partition in its release position The toilet cubicles can be used in a conventional manner. If a wheelchair user wants to use a toilet, he can adjust the partition wall between the two toilet cubicles by a preferably arranged on the outside of the toilet cubicles actuator. Before initiating the adjustment movement, it is checked whether both toilet cubicles are free. After the adjustment of the partition, the wheelchair user has a single toilet room available, which has the total footprint of the two toilet cabins and has two toilet bowls. The toilet bowls are arranged so that the wheelchair user can drive with his wheelchair in a simple way to the right of the one toilet bowl or left next to the other toilet bowl. In this way, it is possible for the wheelchair user to select that toilet bowl to which he can translate from his wheelchair in a convenient way to the right or left. Once the wheelchair user has left the toilet room, the partition preferably returns automatically to its disconnected position, so that then again two independent toilet cabins for the use of non-disabled people are available.

Um dem Rollstuhlfahrer das Einfahren in den Toilettenraum zu ermöglichen, sind die beiden Zugangsöffnungen der beiden nebeneinanderliegenden Toilettenkabinen vorzugsweise unmittelbar nebeneinander angeordnet und nur durch die Trennwand unterteilt. Wenn sich die Trennwand in ihrer Freigabestellung befindet, bilden die beiden Zugangsöffnungen zusammen eine einzelne, vergrößerte Zugangsöffnung doppelter Breite, die dem Rollstuhlfahrer den Zugang in den Toilettenraum erleichtert.In order to allow the wheelchair user to enter the toilet room, the two access openings of the two adjacent toilet cubicles are preferably arranged directly next to each other and divided only by the partition. When the divider is in its release position, the two access openings together form a single, double-width, enlarged access opening that facilitates wheelchair access to the toilet room.

Die Verstellung der Trennwand kann auf vielerlei verschiedene Arten erfolgen. In einer möglichen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Trennwand aus mehreren vertikalen, nebeneinander angeordneten Wandelementen gebildet ist, die jeweils um eine vertikale Achse schwenkbar sind. Dabei können die Wandelemente gelenkig miteinander verbunden sein, so dass eine Faltwand gebildet ist. Bei der Verstellung der Trennwand aus der Trennstellung in die Freigabestellung werden die einzelnen Wandelemente so relativ zueinander verschwenkt, dass sie aufeinander gestapelt sind.The adjustment of the partition can be done in many different ways. In a possible embodiment of Invention is envisaged that the partition wall is formed of a plurality of vertical, juxtaposed wall elements, which are each pivotable about a vertical axis. In this case, the wall elements can be hinged together, so that a folding wall is formed. When adjusting the partition from the separation position to the release position, the individual wall elements are pivoted relative to each other so that they are stacked on each other.

Damit der aus den Wandelementen gebildete Stapel in der Freigabestellung der Trennwand die Benutzung des Toilettenraumes nicht behindert, sollte er in der Freigabestellung an einer Seitenwand des Toilettenraums anliegen oder in einer Nische des Toilettenraums aufgenommen sein. Die Nische kann durch eine selbsttätig schließende Tür abgedeckt sein, um Manipulationen an der mechanischen Verstellkonstruktion der Trennwand auszuschließen.So that the stack formed from the wall elements in the release position of the partition does not hinder the use of the toilet room, it should rest in the release position on a side wall of the toilet room or be included in a niche of the toilet room. The niche can be covered by an automatically closing door to prevent manipulation of the mechanical Verstellkonstruktion the partition.

In einer alternativen Ausgestaltung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Trennwand aus mehreren horizontalen, übereinander angeordneten Wandelementen gebildet ist, die jeweils um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbar sind. Auch hierbei können die Wandelemente unter Bildung einer vertikal öffnenden Faltwand gelenkig miteinander verbunden sein und liegen vorzugsweise in der Freigabestellung der Trennwand in einem Stapel aufeinander. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Wandelemente in der Freigabestellung der Trennwand im Deckenbereich des Toilettenraums angeordnet sind, da sie dann die Bewegungsmöglichkeiten des Rollstuhlfahrers in dem Toilettenraum nicht behindern. Statt einer vertikal öffnenden Faltwand kann auch eine Wand nach Art eines vertikal öffnenden und zu schließenden Rolltores mit einer Vielzahl von horizontalen Lamellen vorgesehen sein, die auf einer im Deckenbereich des Toilettenraums angeordneten Wickelachse aufgewickelt werden können. Damit die Trennwand in ihrer Trennstellung eine ausreichende Stabilität besitzt, sollten die übereinanderliegenden Wandelemente bzw. Lamellen in der Trennstellung der Trennwand miteinander in Eingriff stehen, wodurch eine gegenseitige Verschiebung der Wandelemente senkrecht zur Wandebene verhindert ist.In an alternative embodiment, it may be provided that the partition wall is formed of a plurality of horizontal, superimposed wall elements which are each pivotable about a horizontal axis. In this case as well, the wall elements can be connected to one another in an articulated manner to form a vertically opening folding wall and preferably lie in a stack in the release position of the partition wall. It when the wall elements are arranged in the release position of the partition in the ceiling region of the toilet room, since they then do not hinder the possibilities of movement of the wheelchair user in the toilet room is particularly advantageous. Instead of a vertically opening folding wall may also be provided a wall in the manner of a vertically opening and closing roller shutter with a plurality of horizontal slats on a arranged in the ceiling region of the toilet room winding axis can be wound up. In order for the partition to have sufficient stability in its separating position, the superimposed wall elements or lamellae should engage in the separating position of the partition wall, whereby a mutual displacement of the wall elements perpendicular to the wall plane is prevented.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Trennwand in ihrer Gesamtheit im wesentlichen in ihrer Wandebene verfahrbar ist und durch eine Seitenwand der Toilettenkabinen bzw. des Toilettenraumes hindurch in eine Stellung außerhalb des Toilettenraums verfahren wird. Dabei kann die Trennwand als einstückige Platte ausgebildet sein. Diese Ausgestaltung bringt den Vorteil mit sich, dass die Trennwand nicht in verschiedene Wandelemente unterteilt sein muss und somit eine hohe Stabilität besitzt, jedoch erfordert die Anordnung der Trennwand außerhalb des Toilettenraums dort einen entsprechenden Bauraum.In a further embodiment of the invention can be provided that the partition is movable in its entirety substantially in its wall plane and is moved through a side wall of the toilet cubicles or the toilet room through to a position outside the toilet room. In this case, the partition may be formed as a one-piece plate. This embodiment has the advantage that the partition does not have to be divided into different wall elements and thus has a high stability, however, requires the arrangement of the partition outside the toilet room there a corresponding space.

Alternativ kann die Trennwand auch aus einer Vielzahl vertikaler, nebeneinander angeordneter Lamellen gebildet sein, die relativ zueinander schwenkbar sind und auf der Außenseite des Toilettenraums um ca. 90° umgelenkt werden, so dass die Trennwand in ihrer Freigabestellung außerhalb des Toilettenraums einen nur geringen Bauraum benötigt.Alternatively, the partition may also be formed of a plurality of vertical, juxtaposed slats, which are pivotable relative to each other and are deflected on the outside of the toilet room by about 90 °, so that the partition in its release position outside the toilet room requires only a small amount of space ,

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Trennwand aus einer Vielzahl vertikaler, nebeneinander angeordneter Lamellen gebildet ist und auf der Außenseite des Toilettenraums auf einem vertikalen Wickeldorn aufwickelbar ist. In diesem Fall ist die Trennwand wie ein vertikal öffnendes und zu schließendes Rolltor mit vertikalen Lamellen ausgestaltet.In a further development of the invention can be provided that the partition is formed from a plurality of vertical, juxtaposed slats and on the outside of the toilet room on a vertical winding mandrel is wound up. In this case, the partition wall is designed like a vertically opening and closing roller shutter with vertical slats.

Die vorgenannten Ausgestaltungen gehen von der Grundidee aus, den behindertengerechter Toilettenraum nach Verstellung der Trennwand aus den beiden nebeneinander liegenden Toilettenkabinen zu bilden. In alternativer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird die oben genannte Aufgabe auch durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Anspruchs 15 gelöst, wobei die Trennwand im wesentlichen senkrecht zu ihrer Wandebene in eine verschobene Stellung verstellbar ist, in der die Grundfläche der einen Toilettenkabine vergrößert und die Grundfläche der anderen Toilettenkabine verkleinert ist. Der Toilettenraum umfasst hierbei die Grundfläche einer Toilettenkabine und zusätzlich einen Teil der Grundfläche der anderen Toilettenkabine, da die Trennwand zwischen den beiden Toilettenkabinen nicht entfernt, sondern nur seitlich versetzt wird.The aforementioned embodiments are based on the basic idea to form the disabled toilet room after adjustment of the partition from the two adjacent toilet cubicles. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the above object is also achieved by the features of independent claim 15, wherein the partition is substantially perpendicular to its wall plane in a displaced position adjustable in which increases the footprint of a toilet cubicle and the base of the other toilet cubicle is reduced. The toilet room here comprises the base of a toilet cubicle and in addition a part of the base of the other toilet cubicle, since the partition wall between the two toilet cubicles is not removed, but only offset laterally.

Wenn die einzelnen Toilettenkabinen groß genug sind, kann die seitliche Verschiebung der Trennwand zu einem behindertengerechten Toilettenraum führen, der die entsprechenden räumlichen Anforderungen erfüllt.If the individual toilet cubicles are large enough, the lateral displacement of the partition can lead to a disabled toilet room that meets the appropriate spatial requirements.

Das Toilettenbecken in dem durch seitliches Verfahren der Trennwand gebildeten Toilettenraum kann so angeordnet sein, dass für den Rollstuhlfahrer auf beiden Seiten des Toilettenbeckens ausreichend Platz ist, um seinen Rollstuhl wahlweise rechts oder links von dem Toilettenbecken zu platzieren. In der Regel ist ein entsprechender Platz in den Toilettenkabinen jedoch nicht gegeben. In Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist deshalb vorgesehen, dass die Trennwand wahlweise in entgegengesetzte Richtungen verstellt werden kann. Der Rollstuhlfahrer kann somit wahlweise durch entsprechende Betätigung der außerhalb der Toilettenkabinen angeordneten Betätigungseinrichtung entweder die eine Toilettenkabine durch Verfahren der Trennwand zu dem Toilettenraum erweitern oder auch die Trennwand in die entgegengesetzte Richtung verfahren, so dass die andere Toilettenkabine zu dem Toilettenraum erweitert wird. Dabei sind die Toilettenbecken in den Toilettenkabinen so angeordnet, dass bei einem Toilettenbecken auf der rechten Seite und bei dem anderen Toilettenbecken auf der linken Seite ausreichend Platz für einen Rollstuhl ist. Der Rollstuhlfahrer kann also durch Auswahl der Verstellrichtung der Trennwand entscheiden, ob er einen Toilettenraum nutzen möchte, bei dem er von der rechten oder von der linken Seite aus dem Rollstuhl auf das Toilettenbecken übersetzen kann.The toilet bowl in the toilet compartment formed by lateral movement of the partition can be arranged so that the wheelchair user on both sides of the toilet bowl sufficient space to place his wheelchair either right or left of the toilet bowl. As a rule, however, a corresponding place in the toilet cubicles is not given. In a further development of the invention, it is therefore provided that the partition can be selectively adjusted in opposite directions. The wheelchair user can thus either by appropriate actuation of the outside of the toilet cubicles arranged actuator either extend a toilet cubicle by moving the partition wall to the toilet room or the partition in the opposite Direction, so that the other toilet cabin is extended to the toilet room. The toilet bowls in the toilet cubicles are arranged so that there is sufficient space for a wheelchair in a toilet bowl on the right side and in the other toilet bowl on the left side. The wheelchair user can thus decide by selecting the adjustment of the partition, whether he wants to use a toilet room, where he can translate from the right or from the left side of the wheelchair to the toilet bowl.

Auch bei dieser Ausgestaltung der Toilettenanlage kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Zugangsöffnungen der Toilettenkabinen unmittelbar nebeneinander angeordnet sind und in der verschobenen Stellung der Trennwand zusammen eine einzelne, vergrößerte Zugangsöffnung bilden, die dem Rollstuhlfahrer den Zugang in den Toilettenraum erleichtert. In dieser Stellung ist diejenige Toilettenkabine, die in ihren Abmessungen durch Verfahren der Trennwand verkleinert wurde, nicht mehr zugänglich, da ihre Zugangsöffnung Teil der vergrößerten Zugangsöffnung des Toilettenraums ist.Also in this embodiment of the toilet facility can be provided that the access openings of the toilet cubicles are arranged directly next to each other and together form a single, enlarged access opening in the displaced position of the partition, which facilitates the wheelchair user access to the toilet room. In this position, the toilet cubicle, which has been reduced in size by moving the partition wall, no longer accessible, since its access opening is part of the enlarged access opening of the toilet room.

Die Fig. 1, 2 und 3 zeigen in perspektivische Darstellung eine Toiletteanlage 10, die zwei nebeneinander angeordnete Toilettenkabinen 11 umfasst. Jede Toilettenkabine 11 besitzt ein Toilettenbecken 12, dem ein seitlicher, klappbarer Haltegriff 16 zugeordnet ist. In einer Nische jeder Toilettenkabine 11 ist eine nicht näher dargestellte Wascheinrichtung 13 mit einem Waschbecken, Händetrockner, Spiegel und Seifenspender vorgesehen. Die beiden Toilettenkabinen 11 sind durch eine Trennwand 15 voneinander getrennt und besitzen jeweils eine Zugangsöffnung 19, die von einer Tür 14 verschließbar ist, die im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel als Schiebetür ausgebildet ist. Die Zugangsöffnungen 19 der beiden Toilettenkabinen 11 liegen unmittelbar nebeneinander und sind nur durch die Trennwand 15 unterteilt.1, 2 and 3 show in perspective view a toilet installation 10, the two juxtaposed Toilet cubicles 11 includes. Each toilet cabin 11 has a toilet bowl 12, which is associated with a side, hinged handle 16. In a niche of each toilet cabin 11, a washing device 13, not shown, is provided with a sink, hand dryer, mirror and soap dispenser. The two toilet cubicles 11 are separated by a partition wall 15 and each have an access opening 19 which is closable by a door 14, which is formed in the illustrated embodiment as a sliding door. The access openings 19 of the two toilet cubicles 11 are immediately adjacent to each other and are only divided by the partition wall 15.

Das Toilettenbecken 12 der gemäß Fig. 1 linken Toilettenkabine 11 ist an der der Trennwand 15 entgegengesetzten Seitenwand so angeordnet, dass für einen auf dem Toilettenbecken 12 sitzenden Benutzer auf der rechten Seite vor der dortigen Wascheinrichtung 13 ein ausreichender seitlicher Raum für die Anordnung eines Rollstuhls gebildet ist. Bei der gemäß Fig. 1 rechten Toilettenkabine 11 ist das Toilettenbecken 12 ebenfalls an der der mittleren Trennwand 15 gegenüberliegenden Seitenwand so angebracht, dass für einen auf das Toilettenbecken 12 sitzenden Benutzer auf seiner linken Seite vor der dortigen Wascheinrichtung 13 ein ausreichender seitlicher Raum für die Anordnung eines Rollstuhls gegeben ist.The toilet bowl 12 of FIG. 1 left toilet cubicle 11 is arranged on the partition wall 15 opposite side wall so that formed for a seated on the toilet bowl 12 users on the right side of the local washing device 13 sufficient lateral space for the arrangement of a wheelchair is. 1, the toilet bowl 12 is also mounted on the side wall opposite the central partition wall 15 such that for a user sitting on the toilet bowl 12 on its left side in front of the washing device 13 there is sufficient lateral space for the arrangement a wheelchair is given.

Die Trennwand 15 ist in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel aus zwei vertikalen, nebeneinander angeordneten Wandelementen 15a und 15b gebildet. Das Wandelement 15a liegt auf seiner den Zugangsöffnungen 19 zugewandten Seite an den Türen 14 an und ist an seiner entgegengesetzten, im wesentlichen in der Mitte der Trennwand 15 angeordneten Seite um eine vertikale Achse V2 gelenkig an dem anderen Wandelement 15b gelenkig angeschlossen, das seinerseits an seiner entgegengesetzten Seite um eine vertikale Achse V1 gelenkig und verschieblich an der gemeinsamen Rückwand 18 der Toilettenkabinen 11 gelagert ist. Auf diese Weise ist eine aus zwei Wandelementen 15a, 15b bestehende Faltwand gebildet.The partition wall 15 is formed in the illustrated embodiment of two vertical juxtaposed wall elements 15a and 15b. The wall element 15a rests against the doors 14 on its side facing the access openings 19 and is articulated to the other wall element about its axis V 2 on its opposite side, which is arranged essentially in the middle of the partition 15 15b hingedly connected, which in turn is mounted on its opposite side about a vertical axis V 1 hinged and displaceable on the common rear wall 18 of the toilet cubicles 11. In this way, a folding wall consisting of two wall elements 15a, 15b is formed.

Auf der Außenseite der Toilettenkabinen 11 ist jeweils eine Anzeige 17 angeordnet, die einer außenstehenden Person anzeigt, ob die jeweilige Toilettenkabine 11 belegt oder frei ist. Zumindest einer der Anzeigen 17 ist eine Betätigungseinrichtung 17a zugeordnet. Mit Hilfe der Betätigungseinrichtung 17a kann ein Rollstuhlfahrer die Trennwand 15 aus der Trennstellung gemäß Fig. 1, in der sie die beiden Toilettenkabinen 11 voneinander trennt, in eine Freigabestellung gemäß Fig. 3 verfahren, in der die beiden Wandelemente 15a und 15b vollflächig aufeinanderliegen und darüber hinaus an der Rückwand 18 im Bereich zwischen den Haltegriffen 16 anliegen. Wie die Fig. 1, 2 und 3 zeigen, schwenkt das Wandelement 15a bei der Verstellung um die vertikale Achse V2 relativ zu dem Wandelement 15b, das seinerseits um die vertikale Achse V1 an der Rückwand 18 schwenkt und gleichzeitig entlang der Rückwand 18 seitlich verschoben wird. In der Freigabestellung der Trennwand 15 gemäß Fig. 3 ist ein einzelner Toilettenraum 11' gebildet, der die Grundfläche der beiden Toilettenkabinen 11 umfasst und eine einzelne, vergrößerte Zugangsöffnung 19' besitzt, die aus der Zusammenfassung der beiden nebeneinanderliegenden Zugangsöffnungen 19 der Toilettenkabinen gebildet ist. Ein Rollstuhlfahrer kann durch die vergrößerte Zugangsöffnung 19' in einfacher Weise in den Toilettenraum 11' einfahren und hat dann zwei unterschiedlich angeordnete Toilettenbecken 12 zur Auswahl, neben denen er seinen Rollstuhl platzieren kann. Wenn er seinen Rollstuhl neben dem gemäß Fig. 3 linke Toilettenbecken 12 platziert, kann er aus dem Rollstuhl nach links auf das Toilettenbecken 12 übersetzen, während er aus dem Rollstuhl nach rechts auf das Toilettenbecken 12 übersetzen kann, wenn er seinen Rollstuhl neben dem gemäß Fig. 3 rechten Toilettenbecken 12 platziert.On the outside of the toilet cubicles 11 each have a display 17 is arranged, which indicates to an outside person, whether the respective toilet cubicle 11 is occupied or free. At least one of the displays 17 is associated with an actuating device 17a. With the help of the actuator 17a, a wheelchair user can move the partition 15 from the separation position shown in FIG. 1, in which it separates the two toilets 11 from each other, in a release position shown in FIG. 3, in which the two wall elements 15a and 15b over the entire surface and above also abut the rear wall 18 in the region between the handles 16. As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the wall element 15a pivots in the adjustment about the vertical axis V 2 relative to the wall element 15b, which in turn pivots about the vertical axis V 1 on the rear wall 18 and at the same time along the rear wall 18 laterally is moved. In the release position of the partition wall 15 according to FIG. 3, a single toilet room 11 'is formed, which comprises the base of the two toilet cubicles 11 and has a single, enlarged access opening 19', which is formed from the summary of the two adjacent access openings 19 of the toilet cubicles. A wheelchair user can drive through the enlarged access opening 19 'in a simple manner in the toilet room 11' and then has two differently arranged toilet bowl 12 to choose from, where he can place his wheelchair. If he places his wheelchair next to the left toilet bowl 12 according to FIG. 3, he can translate from the wheelchair to the left on the toilet bowl 12 while he is out the wheelchair to the right on the toilet bowl 12 can translate when he places his wheelchair next to the right according to FIG. 3 toilet bowl 12.

Nach der Benutzung durch einen Rollstuhlfahrer kehrt die Trennwand aus ihrer Freigabestellung gemäß Fig. 3 in ihre Trennstellung gemäß Fig. 1 zurück, so dass im folgenden die beiden Toilettenkabinen 11 wieder unabhängig voneinander in herkömmlicher Weise benutzt werden können.After use by a wheelchair user, the partition returns from its release position shown in FIG. 3 in its disconnected position shown in FIG. 1, so that in the following, the two toilet cabins 11 can be used independently again in a conventional manner.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß den Fig. 1 bis 3 ist die Trennwand als zweiteilige Faltwand mit vertikalen Falt- oder Schwenkachsen ausgebildet. Fig. 4 zeigt eine Abwandlung der Trennwand 15, bei der ebenfalls zwei Wandelemente 15a, 15b vorgesehen sind, die jedoch unabhängig voneinander jeweils um eine vertikale Längsmittelachse V3 schwenkbar sind und in einer oberen Führung 20 sitzen. Zum Verstellen der Trennwand 15 aus ihrer Trennstellung in die Freigabestellung werden die beiden Wandelemente 15a und 15b jeweils um ihre vertikale Längsmittelachse V3 entsprechend den Pfeilen D um 90° verschwenkt und dann längs der Führung 20 gegen die Rückwand 18 der Toilettenanlage verfahren, so dass sie in der Freigabestellung vollflächig aufeinanderliegend an der Rückwand 18 anliegen und somit in genannter Weise einen vergrößerten Toilettenraum 11' ermöglichen.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, the partition wall is designed as a two-part folding wall with vertical folding or pivot axes. Fig. 4 shows a modification of the partition wall 15, in which also two wall elements 15a, 15b are provided, which, however, are independently pivotable about a vertical longitudinal center axis V 3 and sit in an upper guide 20. To adjust the partition 15 from its disconnected position to the release position, the two wall elements 15a and 15b respectively pivoted about their vertical longitudinal central axis V 3 according to the arrows D by 90 ° and then moved along the guide 20 against the rear wall 18 of the toilet facility, so that they in the release position over the entire surface abut each other on the rear wall 18 and thus in the manner mentioned an enlarged toilet room 11 'allow.

Fig. 5 zeigt eine alternative Ausgestaltung der Trennwand 15, die aus zwei übereinander angeordneten Wandelementen 22 gebildet ist, wobei das untere Wandelement 22 auf seiner Unterseite Eingriffsstifte 21 trägt, die in der Trennstellung der Trennwand in Ausnehmungen des Bodens der Toilettenanlage eingreifen. Das untere Wandelement 22 ist an seiner Oberseite um eine horizontale Achse H2 schwenkbar mit dem oberen Wandelement 22 verbunden, das seinerseits an seiner Oberseite um eine horizontale Achse H1 schwenkbar an der Decke der Toilettenanlage angebracht ist. Auf diese Weise ist eine in vertikaler Richtung öffnende und schließende Faltwand mit horizontalen Falt- oder Schwenkachsen gebildet.Fig. 5 shows an alternative embodiment of the partition wall 15, which is formed of two superimposed wall elements 22, wherein the lower wall member 22 carries on its underside engaging pins 21 which engage in recesses of the bottom of the toilet system in the disconnected position of the partition. The lower wall element 22 is connected at its upper side about a horizontal axis H 2 pivotally connected to the upper wall element 22, which in turn at its upper side about a horizontal axis H 1 pivotally the ceiling of the toilet facility is attached. In this way, a folding wall opening and closing in the vertical direction is formed with horizontal folding or pivoting axes.

Während die Faltwand gemäß Fig. 5 nur aus zwei Wandelementen 22 besteht, ist es alternativ möglich, eine Vielzahl von Wandelementen zu verwenden. Die Fig. 6a zeigt eine Trennwand 15, die aus sieben in Querrichtung verlaufenden, übereinanderliegenden Wandelementen 22 besteht, die jeweils gelenkig und um eine horizontale Achse H schwenkbar aneinander angebracht sind. Wie Fig. 6b zeigt, lassen sich die Wandelemente 22 unter gegenseitiger Schwenkung so anheben, dass sie in der in Fig. 6c gezeigten Freigabestellung einen Stapel bilden, der an der Decke der Toilettenanlage gehalten ist. Der Stapel aus Wandelementen 22 behindert die Rangierfähigkeit des Rollstuhlfahrers innerhalb des Toilettenraums 11' nicht, da er nur um ein relativ geringes Maß von der Decke nach unten hervorsteht.While the folding wall according to FIG. 5 only consists of two wall elements 22, it is alternatively possible to use a multiplicity of wall elements. Fig. 6a shows a partition wall 15 consisting of seven transversely extending, superimposed wall elements 22, which are each pivotally mounted and pivotable about a horizontal axis H to each other. As shown in FIG. 6b, the wall elements 22 can be lifted with mutual pivoting so that they form a stack in the release position shown in FIG. 6c, which is held on the ceiling of the toilet installation. The stack of wall elements 22 does not obstruct the maneuverability of the wheelchair user within the lavatory 11 ', as it only protrudes downward from the ceiling by a relatively small amount.

Falls verhindert werden soll, dass der aus den Wandelementen 22 gebildete Stapel von der Decke der Toilettenanlage nach unten hervorsteht, kann gemäß Fig. 7 ein auf die Toilettenanlage aufgesetzter Speicherkasten 23 vorgesehen sein, in den die Wandelemente 22 angehoben und nach Umlenkung um 90° seitlich eingeschoben werden, wie es durch die Pfeile E in Fig. 7 angedeutet ist.If it is to be prevented that the stack formed from the wall elements 22 protrudes downwards from the ceiling of the toilet installation, a storage box 23 placed on the toilet installation can be provided as shown in FIG. 7, in which the wall elements 22 are raised and laterally deflected by 90 ° be inserted, as indicated by the arrows E in Fig. 7.

Die Fig. 8a und 8b zeigen eine Trennwand 15, die in Form eines Rolltores aus einer Vielzahl von gelenkig miteinander verbundenen horizontalen, leistenförmigen Wandelementen 22 besteht, die in bekannter Weise auf eine obenliegende, nur schematisch angedeutete Wickelachse W aufwickelbar sind. Die Wandelemente 22 sind in vertikaler Richtung um ein geringes Maß relativ zueinander verstellbar. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, dass ein nach oben vorstehender Ansatz 22a eines Wandelementes 22 in eine komplementäre untere Ausnehmung 22b des darüber liegenden Wandelementes 22 formschlüssig eingreift (siehe Fig. 8b, linke Darstellung), wodurch die Stabilität der Trennwand 15 in der Trennstellung verbessert ist. Wenn die Wandelemente 22 bei der Verstellung der Trennwand relativ zueinander angehoben werden, kommen sie aus dem gegenseitigen Eingriff frei, wie es auf der rechten Seite der Fig. 8b dargestellt ist, so dass sie sich gut aufwickeln lassen.8a and 8b show a partition wall 15, which consists in the form of a roll-up door of a plurality of hingedly interconnected horizontal, strip-shaped wall elements 22 which are wound in a known manner on an overhead, only schematically indicated winding axis W. The wall elements 22 are adjustable in the vertical direction by a small amount relative to each other. In this way It is possible that an upwardly projecting projection 22a of a wall element 22 in a complementary lower recess 22b of the overlying wall element 22 positively engages (see Fig. 8b, left illustration), whereby the stability of the partition wall 15 is improved in the release position. When the wall elements 22 are raised relative to each other in the adjustment of the partition, they come out of the mutual engagement, as shown on the right side of Fig. 8b, so that they can be well wound up.

Die Fig. 9a bis 9d zeigen eine Ausgestaltung der Trennwand 15, bei der diese in ihrer Freigabestellung nicht an der Rückwand 18 der Toilettenanlage, sondern an der Seitenwand einer der Toilettenkabinen 11 anliegt. Die Trennwand 15 ist hierbei ebenfalls aus zwei vertikalen, nebeneinander angeordneten Wandelementen 15a und 15b gebildet. Das den Zugangsöffnungen 19 zugewandte Wandelement 15a ist senkrecht zu seiner Wandebene entlang einer Führung 20 verfahrbar und trägt an seinem in der Mitte der Toilettenanlage liegenden Ende das Wandelement 15b, das relativ zum Wandelement 15a um eine vertikale Achse V3 schwenkbar ist. Bei der Verstellung der Trennwand aus der in Fig. 9a dargestellten Trennstellung verfährt das Wandelement 15a senkrecht zu seiner Wandebene in Querrichtung der Toilettenanlage, während gleichzeitig das Wandelement 15b um die vertikale Achse V3 schwenkt, bis es vollflächig auf dem Wandelement 15a aufliegt. Die beiden Wandelemente 15a und 15b sind in ihrem aufeinanderliegenden Zustand neben dem gemäß Fig. 9d rechten Toilettenbecken 12 an der Seitenwand 18' anliegend aufbewahrt, wobei sie die Platzierung des Rollstuhls neben dem Toilettenbecken 12 nicht beeinträchtigen. Um in die Trennstellung zurückzukehren, wird das Wandelement 15 wieder entlang der Führung in seine Ausgangsstellung verfahren, wobei gleichzeitig das Wandelement 15b um die vertikale Achse V3 soweit schwenkt, bis es mit dem Wandelement 15a in einer gemeinsamen Wandebene liegt.FIGS. 9a to 9d show an embodiment of the partition wall 15, in which, in its release position, it does not bear against the rear wall 18 of the toilet installation but against the side wall of one of the toilet cubicles 11. The partition wall 15 is also formed here from two vertical, juxtaposed wall elements 15a and 15b. The access openings 19 facing wall member 15a is vertically moved to its wall plane along a guide 20 and carries at its end lying in the middle of the toilet installation end of the wall member 15b, which is pivotable relative to the wall member 15 about a vertical axis V. 3 In the adjustment of the partition from the disconnected position shown in Fig. 9a moves the wall element 15a perpendicular to its wall plane in the transverse direction of the toilet system, while the wall element 15b pivots about the vertical axis V 3 until it rests on the entire surface of the wall element 15a. The two wall elements 15a and 15b are stored in their superimposed state next to the right toilet bowl 12 according to FIG. 9d on the side wall 18 'fitting, wherein they do not affect the placement of the wheelchair next to the toilet bowl 12. To return to the release position, the wall element 15 is again moved along the guide to its initial position, at the same time the wall element 15b to the vertical Axis V 3 pivots so far until it lies with the wall element 15a in a common wall plane.

Bei den bisher dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen war die Trennwand aus mehreren relativ zueinander schwenkbaren Einzelteilen aufgebaut. Fig. 10 zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel, bei dem die Trennwand 15 von einem einzelnen Wandelement gebildet ist, das in seiner Wandebene verfahrbar ist, wie es durch den Pfeil A angedeutet ist. Die Trennwand 15 kann durch einen Spalt in der Rückwand 18 der Toilettenanlage aus dem Toilettenraum 11' heraus nach außen verschoben werden, so dass es in der Freigabestellung vollständig außerhalb der Toilettenkabinen bzw. des Toilettenraums angeordnet ist. Auf diese Weise ist eine hohe Stabilität der Trennwand 15 gewährleistet, da diese als einstückiges Bauteil ausgebildet sein kann. Jedoch benötigt sie in ihrer Freigabestellung außerhalb der Toilettenanlage einen relativ großen Raum. Dies lässt sich bei der Ausgestaltung gemäß Fig. 11 vermeiden, bei der die Trennwand aus mehreren, um eine vertikale Achse relativ zueinander schwenkbaren Lamellen 24 gebildet ist, die außerhalb der Rückwand 18 mittels einer Umlenkvorrichtung 23 um ca. 90° umgelenkt werden, so dass die Trennwand in ihrer Freigabestellung im wesentlichen parallel zur Rückwand 18 der Toilettenanlage außerhalb von dieser angeordnet ist.In the embodiments shown so far, the partition was constructed of several relatively pivotable parts. Fig. 10 shows an embodiment in which the partition wall 15 is formed by a single wall element, which is movable in its wall plane, as indicated by the arrow A. The partition wall 15 can be displaced outwards out of the toilet compartment 11 'through a gap in the rear wall 18 of the toilet installation, so that it is arranged completely outside the toilet cubicles or the toilet compartment in the release position. In this way, a high stability of the partition wall 15 is ensured, since this can be formed as a one-piece component. However, it requires a relatively large space in its release position outside the toilet facility. This can be avoided in the embodiment according to FIG. 11, in which the dividing wall is formed by a plurality of lamellae 24, which are pivotable about a vertical axis relative to each other, which are deflected by about 90 ° outside the rear wall 18 by means of a deflection device 23, so that the partition is arranged in its release position substantially parallel to the rear wall 18 of the toilet facility outside of this.

Die Fig. 12a, 12b und 12c zeigen eine Weiterbildung der Ausgestaltung gemäß Fig. 11. Die aus einer Vielzahl von vertikalen, nebeneinander angeordneten, um eine vertikale Achse relativ zueinander schwenkbaren Lamellen 24 gebildete Trennwand 15 lässt sich auf einen außerhalb des Toilettenraums 11' hinter der Rückwand 18 liegenden Wickeldorn 25 aufwickeln, wobei die Lamellen 24 in der Trennstellung der Trennwand gemäß Fig. 12 vorzugsweise miteinander in Eingriff stehen, wie es im Zusammenhang mit Fig. 8b erläutert wurde.12a, 12b and 12c show a development of the embodiment according to FIG. 11. The partition wall 15 formed of a multiplicity of vertical dividing walls 15, which are arranged next to one another and can be pivoted about a vertical axis relative to each other, can be placed behind a toilet space 11 ' Winding mandrel 25 lying behind the rear wall 18, wherein the blades 24 in the release position of the partition wall according to FIG. 12 preferably engage with each other stand, as explained in connection with Fig. 8b.

Während die bisher dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele von der Grundidee ausgingen, die Trennwand 15 so zu verstellen, dass der vergrößerte Toilettenraum 11' aus der gesamten Fläche der beiden Toilettenkabinen 11 gebildet wird, zeigen die Fig. 13 und 14 ein davon abweichendes Prinzip. Gemäß Fig. 13 weist die Toilettenanlage bis auf die Trennwand 15 genau den Aufbau auf, wie er bereits im Zusammenhang mit Fig. 1 erläutert wurde, worauf Bezug genommen wird. Die Trennwand 15 ist als einteilige Wand ausgebildet und in beide Richtungen senkrecht zu ihrer Wandebene entsprechend dem Doppelpfeil B verstellbar.While the embodiments shown so far proceeded from the basic idea to adjust the partition 15 so that the enlarged toilet room 11 'is formed from the entire surface of the two toilet cubicles 11, Figs. 13 and 14 show a different principle. According to FIG. 13, the toilet installation, with the exception of the dividing wall 15, has exactly the structure as already explained in connection with FIG. 1, to which reference is made. The partition 15 is formed as a one-piece wall and adjustable in both directions perpendicular to its wall plane corresponding to the double arrow B.

Fig. 14 zeigt diejenige Endstellung der Trennwand 15, wenn sie in Richtung der linken bzw. oberen Toilettenkabine gemäß Fig. 13 verschoben wird. Die beiden Zugangsöffnungen 19 bilden in dieser verschobenen Stellung der Trennwand 15 zusammen eine einzelne, vergrößerte Zugangsöffnung 19' zu einem Toilettenraum 11', der die Fläche der gemäß Fig. 13 rechten unteren Toilettenkabine 11 sowie etwa die Hälfte der Grundfläche der gemäß Fig. 13 linken, oberen Toilettenkabine 11 umfasst. Der Raum der gemäß Fig. 13 linken, oberen Toilettenkabine ist so verkleinert, dass diese nicht mehr nutzbar ist, zumal sie auch keine Zugangsöffnung mehr aufweist. Der durch die Verstellung der Trennwand 15 gebildete und vergrößerte Toilettenraum 11' gemäß Fig. 14 besitzt ein Toilettenbecken 12, auf das sich der Rollstuhlfahrer aus seinem Rollstuhl nach rechts umsetzen kann. Wenn der Rollstuhlfahrer wünscht, sich aus seinem Rollstuhl nach links auf das Toilettenbecken umzusetzen, muss er die Trennwand 15 vor Betreten des Toilettenraums 11' in die entgegengesetzte Richtung verfahren, so dass der Toilettenraum 11' von der gemäß Fig. 13 linken oberen Toilettenkabine und einem Teil der rechten unteren Toilettenkabine gebildet ist. In einem derartigen Toilettenraum 11' steht ein entsprechend angeordnetes Toilettenbecken 12 zur Verfügung.Fig. 14 shows that end position of the partition wall 15 when it is displaced in the direction of the left or upper toilet cubicle according to FIG. 13. The two access openings 19 together form in this displaced position of the partition wall 15 a single, enlarged access opening 19 'to a toilet room 11', which left the surface of FIG. 13 right lower toilet cubicle 11 and about half of the base of FIG , upper toilet cubicle 11 includes. The space of the left upper toilet cubicle according to FIG. 13 is reduced so that it is no longer usable, especially since it no longer has an access opening. The formed by the adjustment of the partition wall 15 and enlarged toilet room 11 'shown in FIG. 14 has a toilet bowl 12 to which the wheelchair user can move from his wheelchair to the right. If the wheelchair user wishes to move from his wheelchair to the left on the toilet bowl, he must move the partition 15 before entering the toilet room 11 'in the opposite direction, so that the toilet room 11' of the left upper toilet cubicle according to FIG and part of the lower right toilet cubicle is formed. In such a toilet room 11 'is a suitably arranged toilet bowl 12 available.
