Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an equipment for a bathtub or shower booth, in particular usable to allow the drying of laundry hung at the bathtub or the shower booth.
  • Movable tenters which are positioned from time to time near radiators or heat generators or otherwise in ventilated spaces.
  • the solution described above has some drawbacks.
  • the movable tenters positioned near heat sources clutter, in anti-aesthetic fashion, spaces which in many living solutions are already restricted; in the case of hand-washed laundry, or delicate items not subjected to spin-drying, the quantity of water released on the floor is not negligible and this creates further inconvenience for the persons who are in the same living space.
  • tenters which use the space at the bathtub or the shower booth.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the aforesaid drawbacks, making available an equipment which allows to solve in simple and economical fashion the problem of drying laundry in rainy days, in the winter months and when usable spaces are lacking.
  • the reference number 1 globally designates an equipment for bathtub or shower booth.
  • Said equipment 1 characteristically comprises a structure 2, applicable to the bathtub or the shower booth in such a way as to identify a space 3.
  • the space 3 is delimited by a roof 10, by walls 11 of the room, by substantially vertical peripheral closure means 9, positioned in combination with the bathtub.
  • the structure 2 characteristically comprises a tenter 4, positioned and structured in such a way as to remain at the space 3 without interfering with the user.
  • the roof 10 may even be absent, the tenter 4 being able to contribute to define the space 3.
  • tenter 4 remains in the space 3 without interfering with the user means that said tenter 4 can be fixed, removable, or overturning.
  • said tenter 4 could for example be hinged to a fixed wall defining the space 3, and provided with elements for locking the tenter 4 in two extreme configurations: a configuration of use, substantially horizontal, and a rest configuration, substantially vertical, able to minimise occupied space in order to facilitate the normal use of a sanitary fitting 12 (bathtub or shower booth) for uses linked to personal hygiene.
  • the tenter 4 is positioned in the upper part of the space 3.
  • the equipment 1 comprises an air treatment apparatus 5, associated to the structure2, for conditioning at least partially the climate in the space 3.
  • Said air treatment apparatus 5 comprises air dehumidifying means or air heating means, which could for example be electric heaters, burners, etc.
  • said apparatus 5 is provided both with air dehumidifying means and with air heating means. The drying of laundry positioned in the space 3 is thereby favoured.
  • said apparatus 5 can also be used to heat or dehumidify the space 3 or the entire room where the equipment 1 is positioned.
  • the equipment 1 comprises aspiration means 6 for aspirating the air drawn from the environment outside the space 3, and also introduction means 7 for introducing the air drawn from the external environment into the space 3; the air treatment apparatus 5 is interposed between said aspiration means 6 and said introduction means 7.
  • the structure 2 defines the space 3 in such a way that said space 3 is at least partially closed in non hermetic fashion. For example, this could occur if the upper roof 10 is not used. In any case, even if the structure 2 defines a totally closed space 3, said closure is not hermetic.
  • the structure 2 can comprise through holes 8 to allow the escape of air.
  • said through holes 8 are advantageously obtained in the roof 10 which delimits superiorly the space 3.
  • the substantially vertical peripheral closure means 9 comprised in the structure 2.
  • Said peripheral closure means 9 are movable to allow access to the interior of the space 3 identified by them;
  • said peripheral closure means 9 can be constituted by flexible elements such as a waterproof curtain 13 supported by a peripheral guide 14; alternatively, said peripheral closure means 9 are constituted by rigid elements, for instance comprising slidable panels 15 (shown in dashed lines in Figure 1), or panels 15 hinged in such a way as to be able to rotate about their own axis (this solution is not shown).
  • Figure 1 shows the tenter 4 at the upper area of the space 3. Said tenter 4 could advantageously be removable.
  • the equipment 1 may also comprise engagement means to support bath accessories, e.g. soap dishes or shelves for holding personal hygiene products.
  • bath accessories e.g. soap dishes or shelves for holding personal hygiene products.
  • the aspiration means 6 comprising for example a fan
  • the air after being dehumidified and/or heated by the apparatus 5, is inserted within the space 3 at a temperature and pressure sufficient to allow conditioning the climate within the space 3. All this causes a forced circulation which causes an improvement in the effectiveness of the heat exchange between air and the laundry to be dried, consequently reducing drying time.
  • the environment inside the space 3 is in a condition of slight overpressure with respect to the external environment and this facilitates the escape of the air, assuring continuous recirculation.
  • the fact that the space 3 is not hermetically isolated from the external environment allows the aforementioned recirculation.
  • the invention achieves important advantages.
  • the invention allows a rapid drying of the laundry; said drying occurs independently of external atmospheric conditions and with relatively low energy consumption.
  • the invention allows to improve comfort, when using the bathtub or the shower booth for personal hygiene, thanks to the heating and the dehumidification of the space or of the bathroom.
  • Two important additional advantages are that the invention allows to evacuate water in a simple and easy manner and it also allows to avoid cluttering, in anti-aesthetic fashion, spaces of the home that are already restricted or normally destined to other uses.
