  • Such multifunction units e.g. a shower column having a plurality of shower heads and/or water delivery outlets and spot-lights are currently well known and widely used. They are mainly wall-mounted and connected to the water mains and when appropriate to the power mains for water and power supply.
  • These multifunction units comprise a plurality of hydraulic means, such as mixers/diverters and thermostatic units, which are wall-embedded and are suitably connected to the water mains and to water delivery outlets by connecting pipes.
  • these multifunction units shall be wall-mounted when the wall surface is still in the raw state, e.g. before lining it with tiles or otherwise finishing it.
  • these multifunction units shall be wall-mounted when the wall surface is still in the raw state, e.g. before lining it with tiles or otherwise finishing it.
  • the problem on which the present invention is based is that of providing a multifunction unit for sanitary fittings which has such structural and functional features such as to fulfil the above need, while obviating the above prior art drawbacks.
  • numeral 1 generally designates a multifunction unit for sanitary fittings according to the invention which, in this specific embodiment, is implemented as a multifunction unit for a shower.
  • the multifunction unit 1 comprises hydraulic means which are suitable to be connected to sanitary water main for controlling water delivery to at least one water delivery outlet the latter comprising, in this embodiment: a fixed shower head 2, a plurality of stationary front nozzles 3 and a hand shower 4.
  • the multifunction unit 1 advantageously comprises:
  • the covering structure 6 allows the provision of actuator means associated thereto, for control and adjustment of the hydraulic means received in the internal structure.
  • the actuator means comprise control knobs and levers, designated by numeral 7, as well as selectors S, which act on water flow diverters, for instance to divert water flow from shower head 2 to the hand shower 4.
  • the internal structure 5 is embodied by a substantially box-like enclosure, suitable to be embedded in the wall P to receive and support the above mentioned hydraulic means.
  • the hydraulic means comprise a mixer and/or delivery unit, designated by numeral 9, a flow diverter designated by numeral 10 and hydraulic pipe fittings.
  • the structure and functions of the hydraulic means will not be described in detail, because they are known per se and have standard sizes.
  • box-like enclosure 5 can receive any currently available hydraulic means, although there may be provided box-like enclosures having different sizes depending on the volume of the specific hydraulic means to be accommodated therein.
  • the latter has an open front side and has such a position relative to the wall P that this open front side is substantially flush with the outer surface of the wall P.
  • the hydraulic means may still be introduced therein or removed therefrom.
  • the box-like enclosure has support means of traditional construction, which are useful for securing the hydraulic means thereto.
  • Apertures and/or holes are made in the box-like enclosure to allow insertion of pipes for connection to water mains, e.g. hot water and cold water delivery pipes, as well as any cables for connection to power supply mains (not shown) or for transmission of electric signals, e.g. for voice transmission to a loudspeaker in the multifunction unit.
  • water mains e.g. hot water and cold water delivery pipes
  • any cables for connection to power supply mains (not shown) or for transmission of electric signals, e.g. for voice transmission to a loudspeaker in the multifunction unit.
  • the structure of the box-like enclosure may be perforated during installation for later introduction of pipes, cables and else.
  • the box-like enclosure 5 is further equipped with stop and positioning means, which allow the box-like enclosure to be appropriately embedded in the wall P at the proper depth.
  • the covering structure has such a shape as to form a cover to be associated to the above mentioned front opening of the box-like enclosure 5 in closing relationship therewith.
  • the cover has a form fit with the front opening of the box-like enclosure 5 with gasket means, not shown, interposed therebetween, which safely seal the front opening of the box-like enclosure.
  • Such form fit is achieved by providing the cover 6, at its inner side, i.e. the side turned toward the box-like enclosure 5, with a rim 11 that defines a peripheral frame, which may be inserted by a slight force fit in the front opening of the box-like enclosure 5.
  • the cover 6, i.e. the covering structure has such a size as to lie over and beyond said peripheral rim 11, to hide the box-like enclosure 5 while wholly covering it.
  • the surface of the outer side of the cover may be chromium plated, satin finished, anodized, painted or otherwise processed and/or coated.
  • the surface of the outer side of the cover is suitable to be coated with any material having the shape of a flat plate, e.g. glass, marble, ceramics, plastics and others.
  • Special holes and/or apertures 14 are made in the covering structure, in the same position as the actuator means 7, 8 for control and adjustment of the hydraulic means and of any other electric means possibly contained in the multifunction unit.
  • the covering structure 6, i.e. the cover may advantageously have, as shown in the figures, the function of supporting the water delivery means, in the specific embodiment that comprises a fixed shower head 2, a plurality of fixed front nozzles 3 and a support for the hand shower 4.
  • the cover 6 may further support light means, such as LEDs and lamps and/or sound diffusion means, such as a loudspeaker.
  • the covering structure 6 is equipped with hydraulic connection means 13 for allowing fluid communication between the hydraulic means, i.e. of the mixer and/or distribution unit 9 and flow diverter 10, and the water delivery means 2, 3 and 4.

  • the hydraulic means for the specific application may be introduced therein, and connected to the sanitary water mains, and any electric means, such as lights, an alarm and/or sound diffusion means may be connected to the power supply mains.
  • the wall P may be resurfaced and finished with the desired outer finish. It shall be noted that these steps involve no risk of damaging the exposed part of the multifunction unit, the sanitary water delivery means, the actuator means or any , as the latter have not been positioned yet. Only when the masonry and surface finishing works on the wall P have been completed, the box-like enclosure may be associated to the covering structure 6, and to the various components wherewith the latter is equipped.
  • the cover 6 is tightly secured to the box-like enclosure thanks to the sealing effect exerted thereon by the actuator means, once the latter have been associated to the hydraulic means.
  • the cover may be mounted to the box-like enclosure by an interference fit, a snap fit or any connection using traditional fastener means, such as clips, screws, putties and the like.
  • the multifunction unit of the invention may be also equipped with lighting means, such as LEDs 12, lamps and others, which are directly supported by the covering structure 6 and connected by electric wires to respective connector blocks that are accommodated in the box-like enclosure 5 and in turn connected to the mains.
  • lighting means such as LEDs 12, lamps and others
  • the multifunction unit may be equipped with sound diffusion means, such as loudspeakers of a radio unit or a wire radio system.
  • multifunction units 101 and 201 are only two of the possible variant embodiments.
  • the parts of the multifunction units 101 and 201 that are structurally and/or functionally equivalent to those of the multifunction unit 1 described hereinbefore will be designated by the same numerals and will not be further described.
  • the internal structure 105 i.e. the box-like enclosure
  • the internal structure 105 is suitable to be only partly embedded in the wall P.
  • This arrangement is particularly advantageous when the thickness of the wall P does not allow full-depth embedding of the box-like enclosure 105. This occurs, for instance, when the wall P is a partition having a thickness of 8-10 centimetres only.
  • the depth of hydraulic means is typically of 6-8 centimetres, particularly when these means are mixer and/or diverter units that can selectively serve multiple water delivery outlets.
  • the covering structure 106 comprises a cover 106a as well as a plurality of sections or wire covers 106b, suitable to be fixedly or preferably removably associated to the side portions of the box-like enclosure 105 projecting from the wall P.
  • the multifunction unit 102 has separate lower and upper side wire covers 106b, which are suitable to cooperate with the cover 106a for frontally and fully cover the portion of the box-like enclosure 105 projecting from the wall P.
  • the covering structure may be designed in such a manner that the cover to be associated to the box-like enclosure already has integral tabs for covering the portions of the box-like enclosure walls projecting from the wall P.
  • the installation of the multifunction unit 101 is essentially coincident with the installation described for the multifunction unit 1, except that the wire covers 106b shall be also secured upon mounting of the cover 106a.
  • multifunction unit 201 this is shown as a column-like unit, to be installed in such a manner that a predominant portion thereof projects vertically from a support structure such as a slab or a ceiling or horizontally from a wall.
  • the multifunction unit 10 is secured to a slab S, i.e. a floor, and has an internal structure 205 with a covering structure 206 associated thereto.
  • the internal structure 205 is divided into two parts, and comprises a support 205a, which is suitable to be at least partly embedded in the slab S and a box-like enclosure 205b, which is suitable to be coupled to the support 205a to be supported thereby.
  • the support 205a is shaped in such a manner as to define a tubular member with a flange 214 for firmer fixation thereof to the slab.
  • the tubular member which is shown to have a rectangular section, provides a form fit with the box-like enclosure 205b.
  • the box-like enclosure 205b has a rectangular section which is suitable to be slideably inserted in the tubular member of the support 205a, thereby providing a precision male/female coupling.
  • the internal support structure may be formed by a single box-like enclosure suitable to be partly embedded in the slab, as described above, by an end portion thereof, whereat a flange is provided.
  • the box-like enclosure 205b is open at a front wall to allow introduction of appropriate hydraulic means therein.
  • the covering structure 206 is secured to the portion of the internal structure 205 which projects out of the slab S and includes a cover 206a to be mounted to the open front portion of the box-like enclosure 205b, and a plurality of sections or wire covers 206b, which are designed to cooperate with the cover 206a for fully covering the internal structure 205.
  • the cover 206a has a form fit with the box-like enclosure 205b with gasket means, not shown, interposed therebetween, which safely seal the front opening of the box-like enclosure 205b.
  • Such form fit is achieved by providing the cover 206b, at its inner side, i.e. the side turned toward the box-like enclosure 205b, with a peripheral rim 211 that defines a frame, which may be inserted by a slight force fit in the front opening of the box-like enclosure 205b.
  • the cover 206b of the covering structure has such a size as to lie over and beyond said peripheral rim 211, to hide the front side of the internal structure 205.
  • the wire covers 206b are suitable to be fixedly or preferably removably associated to the upper and lower side portions of the internal structure 205 which projects out of the slab S, as shown in the exploded view of Figure 11.
  • the covering structure 206 of the multifunction unit 201, and particularly the cover 206a allows to use actuator means 7, 8 for control and adjustment of said hydraulic means and acts as a support for water delivery means, in this case the fixed shower head 2, the plurality of fixed front nozzles 3 and the hand shower 4.
  • the cover 206b is equipped with hydraulic connection means 213 for allowing fluid communication between the hydraulic means 9 and 10 in the box-like enclosure 205b and said water delivery means.
  • These hydraulic connection means 213 include pipes, preferably flexible connection pipes, as well as their respective screwed fittings.
  • the installation of the multifunction unit 201 is substantially coincident with the above described installation of the multifunction unit 1.
  • the main difference consists in that a prior step is provided to fix the support 205a to the slab S so that the lower part thereof, comprising the flange 214 is only embedded in the slab. This step is facilitated by the stop and positioning means of the support, whose position is related to the unfinished and unpaved slab S.
  • the box-like enclosure 205b may be coupled to the support 205a, thereby providing a male/female coupling.
  • the piping for connection to the sanitary water mains, as well as any cables for connection to the power supply mains extend within the box-like enclosure 205b from the support 205a and the slab S.
  • the appropriate hydraulic means may be introduced therein and connected to the sanitary water mains.
  • the covering structure 206 i.e. the wire covers 206b and the cover 206a will be mounted, with all water delivery and connection means 213 fitted thereon.
  • the multifunction unit 201 is highly versatile and functional as it can be advantageously installed both on floors and on ceilings, in such a manner as to extend from the ceiling to the floor along a predetermined length, or even on walls.
  • the structure of the multifunction unit may be suitably modified, e.g. to allow installation of a sink where no wall is provided.
  • the multifunctional unit shall be simply equipped with suitable hydraulic means for ensuring proper operation of a sink, i.e. the hot and cold water supply pipes and a drainage pipe, with its respective pipe fitting, and the structure of the multifunction unit may be also used as a support for the sink.
  • the multifunction unit shall be obviously put in fluid communication not only with the sanitary water mains but also with a sewer.
  • the multifunction unit shall also have pipe fittings and connection pipes between the sink drainage and the sewer.
  • a multifunction unit may be provided which has two or more separate covers, possibly on opposed or adjacent sides, which are respectively equipped with water delivery means, such as a shower head or a hand shower, and with the water supply and drainage fittings for a sink.
  • water delivery means such as a shower head or a hand shower
  • the multifunction unit for sanitary fittings fulfils the above mentioned need and also obviates prior art drawbacks as set out in the introduction of this disclosure.
  • Installation is simple and fast and may be carried out in two successive steps, with surface finishing of the support structure, i.e. the wall, slab or ceiling whereto the multifunction unit is secured, being performed in between. It will be particularly appreciated that no risk of damaging the external parts of the multifunction unit exists during surface finishing of the support structure.
  • An additional advantage of the multifunction unit for sanitary fittings according to this invention consists in the possibility of introducing any hydraulic means therein, therefore the decision about the hydraulic means to be used, e.g. a mixer unit from a particular manufacturer or having particular features may be also made when the masonry works have been completed, that is upon mounting of the cover to the box-like enclosure.
  • a further advantage of the multifunction unit for sanitary fittings according to this invention is the possibility of preparing the internal structure, namely the box-like enclosure, for reception and fast connection of the various available hydraulic means.
  • Yet another advantage of the multifunction unit for sanitary fittings according to this invention is that it obviates the problem of properly positioning the hydraulic means relative to the wall.
  • the internal structure i.e. the box-like enclosure may be fitted with the hydraulic means, which are accommodated and secured therein, before installation. Therefore, installation will simply consist in securing such assembly to the support structure, e.g. the wall, as described hereinbefore, and in connecting the pipes and electric cables, if any, to the water and power supply mains respectively.
  • the internal structure may be previously fitted with the appropriate hydraulic means required for any specific installation at the factory, and still assure the highest mounting precision and dramatically reduce the time required for on-site installation of the multifunction unit.
