The discharge part is accommodated in an adapter part (4) for accommodating differently large discharge parts. The adapter part is formed partially with a wall thickness corresponding to a wall thickness of the element. The adapter part forms a passage opening in the element. The adapter part is insertable in more than two different directions into the element.

Description

The invention relates to a shower floor element, preferably foam shower floor element, with a receptacle for a drain part, for example, a drain part in the form of an elongated drainage channel.

Such shower floor elements have already become known in various embodiments. For example, refer to the DE 20 2005 004 179 , beyond that on the DE 20 2005 018 681 U1 ,

The state of the art is further the EP 1 782 721 A2 , the DE 10 2006 051 130 A1 , the DE 60 2004 001 254 T2 , the WO01 / 73231 A1 and the DE 20 2006 014 959 U1 to call.

Often the shower floor elements are offered as such, without a drain, from a manufacturer. This is particularly true in the case of sanitary surfaces to be created later individually, for example by tiling. The user then wishes from another manufacturer to integrate a particular drain or a particular gutter, for example, a triangular drain or a square drain in the shower floor element.

Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is to provide a possibility of being able to make an optional combination of a shower element with a desired sequence, at least to a certain extent.
A possible solution of the above object is given according to a first inventive idea in an article according to claim 1, wherein in this case it is aimed at that the drain part is received in a trained to accommodate different sized drainage parts adapter area. To form the adapter area, the receptacle for the drain part, which is already formed in the shower floor element, can already be clear be designed to be larger, so that it corresponds to different possible usable processes in terms of dimensions (at least the largest of these deployable processes). The adapter region, which accommodates the particular drain part, is in principle suitable for receiving drainage parts of different sizes. In this case, the adapter area coincide with the recording. The receptacle can also be designed as a separate design in the shower tray element, in which then an adapter portion exhibiting the adapter part is added. It is preferred that the adapter area is formed in a separate adapter part which is to be inserted into the receptacle. The ability to accommodate drainage parts of different sizes, can be achieved by a correspondingly large recess in the adapter part or adapter area. This remaining free spaces can be covered with patches. The adaptation can also be achieved by breakout elements or breakout markings in the adapter part or adapter area. In the case of a separate receptacle, this is preferably formed as a groove-like depression in the shower tray element.

As far as is spoken of adapter part below, this may also be, where it is not essential to a separate training, each of the integrated formed in the shower tray element adapter area.

It is also advantageous that at least in one dimension, ie at least in the width or length, the adapter part is adapted to the width or length of the receptacle and / or to the size of the expiration part. Preferably, the adaptation of the adapter part to the receptacle in relation to at least given to the width and / or on the length. It can also be round or square drainage parts. Here, the adaptation of the adapter part is given in each case at least to the largest of such a series of round or square drainage parts.

Through the adapter part, however, the desired closed surface of the shower floor element, just with the exception of the drain part then used, but outside of this, can be produced. This is important and necessary, for example, if the shower floor element subsequently receives a sanitary surface in the form of a tiling. For example, ribs or outbreak structures can be provided only at such a distance or with so much space that a flooding is not hindered by this.

The shower floor element itself is preferably made on the basis of a particle foam such as EPS, expanded polystyrene or XPS. It can also be made on the basis of a polyurethane foam.

Furthermore, the shower floor element can only be covered on the upper side or also on the entire side or only with respect to the upper side and edge sides with a bonding agent layer. This adhesive layer can be configured in various ways. For example, it may consist of a non-reactive polymer dispersion, e.g. an acrylate dispersion and optionally enriched with organic and / or mineral fillers. It can also consist of a plastic-mortar combination. These are understood in particular to mean mixtures of hydraulically setting binders (for example Portland cement). These may have mineral additives and / or organic additives and / or polymer dispersions as a proportion. In addition, the coating may also consist of another mortar coating.

Further features of the invention are explained below, also in the description of the figures, often in their preferred assignment to the above-mentioned claim, but they can also be in an assignment to only one or more individual features of this claim or independently.

Preferably, an adapter part having the adapter portion is provided. This adapter part is preferably used in the receptacle formed by a recess. It can further be provided that the adapter part is at least partially formed with a wall thickness (thickness) of the shower floor element corresponding wall thickness. The adapter part can thus, if appropriate also on the edge of a shoulder of the surrounding shower floor element, form a passage opening in the shower floor element. It then forms part of the underside of the shower floor element.

The recess may be provided fully closed. But it can also be provided on a partial area, for example 5 to 50% of its circumference, opened.

It is also preferred that the adapter part can be inserted into the shower tray element in different orientations, preferably in more than two different orientations. In the case of an elongated design of the adapter part, at least one rotatability can be provided by 180 °. In the case of a rectangular or square design, it is also possible to provide a multiply different, in the case of a round design even an arbitrarily different angular usability. Hereby can be achieved in the desired manner, for example, an orientation of the incorporated therein drain part, in particular as regards the drain grate, for example for designerischen reasons. With regard to a part of the drain which is already preassembled in the adapter part and, if appropriate, the drain piping, it is thus also possible to carry out a simple alignment for connection to a further piping. The adapter part itself can basically be designed as a solid plastic part, ie, waterproof from home. But it can also consist of a foam in basically the same way as the shower floor element as such as described in detail for the shower floor element. Accordingly, with a sealing layer or adhesive layer described in this regard. Here, for example, a very highly compressed foam can already provide the desired water resistance.

In particular, in the case of a shower base element consisting of several plate parts in the thickness direction, it is preferably provided that the adapter part is in any case associated with the uppermost plate element adapted to this. It is further preferred that the adapter part is assigned only to the uppermost, adapted thereto shaped plate element.

It is further preferred that the receptacle in the shower floor element is in any case designed to open into an edge side of the shower floor element. The shower floor element contains so far, for example, at least to one edge side continuously a receiving groove forming recess. Specifically, in this context, it is preferred that the receptacle is designed to open in two edge sides, as a rule then opposite edge sides of the shower floor element.

The receptacle can likewise consist of a foam, for example one of the foams specified above with regard to the shower floor element. The receptacle may have, for example, only the upper side, the addressed sealing layer or adhesive layer.

A further preferred embodiment is given by the fact that the receptacle has a pipe recess suitable for the passage of a drain pipe and that the pipe recess (seen in the vertical direction in the horizontal direction) has a size which corresponds to one and a half times or more the diameter of the drain pipe or a drain pot. The pipe recess is usually provided in the vertical direction. But she can for example, be provided laterally passing through a wall of the recording. The enlarged recess is particularly recommended if, as preferred, the adapter part and / or the drain part is provided shortened. When the drain part is cut to length in this regard, it is often necessary to produce an outwardly aesthetic, in particular central, arrangement of the drain part, required to move the drain part so that the subsequent drain pipe or the inlet flange of the drain part to the drain pipe offset to a Position results, which would correspond to the un-timed sequence. In order to create the necessary balance, it is precisely the said greater formation of the pipe recess that would actually be required.

The receiving recess itself is preferably provided in the shower tray element such that the bottom of the receiving recess is also formed by the shower tray element itself. The receiving recess is therefore only partially formed as a passage opening - in the region of the pipe recess -, but partially, and preferably formed over their larger area ratio, only as a depression in the shower tray element.

A further preferred embodiment is directed to the fact that the adapter region for supporting support and / or the displacement limit of the drain part in a surface extension of the shower floor element has free-projecting element projections. In this case, free-projecting preferably refers to the fact that the element projections are free-standing with respect to the shower floor element as a whole, ie without leaving a floor area of the shower floor element. The element projections thus also form the outer edge contour of the shower floor element at the same time.

It is further preferred that the element projections extend transversely to a front edge side. It can also be provided that the element projections have a different height in the thickness direction of the shower floor element. In particular, with respect to a longitudinal extent of the end edge side, an outermost element projection may have a greater height than an element projection formed internally with respect to the longitudinal extent.

More preferably, an element projection is formed of the same material with the shower floor element. It can therefore be foamed, for example, integrally with the shower floor element.

A mounted on such element projections expiration part forms in the composite with the shower floor element thus preferably also a part of the end edge side of the total shower floor element thus formed.

Here, the shower floor element itself in the thickness direction of several parts, in particular a plurality of plate parts, be composed. Accordingly, an element projection of at least two parts, namely preferably two plate parts, be composed.

In particular, it may also be provided that one or more element protrusions are integrally formed, as is preferably carried out integrally with the shower floor element, but another or other element protrusions are composed of a plurality of parts, in particular of a plurality of plate parts. The plate parts are in particular those which each extend over virtually the entire floor plan of the shower tray element.

Between two element projections formed in this way, a wall of the shower floor element which is addressed here as a connecting wall and which is correspondingly set back relative to outermost ends of the element projections extends. Since a plurality of element protrusions are preferably provided, there are also several such connecting walls. In this respect, it is preferable that a connecting wall with respect to an adjacent, between two further element projections extending connecting wall, a more inwardly extending free space limited. The connecting walls are thus preferably configured differently among one another.

Further, it is preferably provided that a drain part, optionally in addition to the support on one of said element projections, by means of a height-adjustable foot portion is supported on a floor on which rests the shower floor element. Optionally, on a floor area, which is opposite the floor (which may also be a subfloor part) on which the shower floor element rests, is lowered again. In this respect, a combination of known for expiration parts supporting measures is created, namely on the one hand a support means of particular height-adjustable foot parts and on the other hand by a support on the shower floor element itself.

Another essential idea of the invention relates to the measure that, in a shower floor element consisting of several plate parts in the thickness direction, an insertion recess for the drainage part is formed in an upper plate part, wherein a surface of this upper plate part is sloping toward the inserting recess. It is therefore in principle preferably an alternative training to the training described above with element protrusions. Two plate parts are provided, of which one upper plate part has a recess in which the lower plate part is exposed. This recess is then at least partially filled by the drain part.

In the lower plate part, a casing recess is preferably provided. The drain pot and a subsequent drain pipe can thus preferably at least partially or even exclusively only in the lower plate part be arranged. Such a casing recess is more preferably at least partially covered by the upper plate part.

The said insert recess does not have to be completely open on the bottom side. It can also be partially designed as a downwardly closed channel.

It is further preferred that the drain part has a drain flange part and that an edge portion of the drain flange part at least partially forms an end face of the shower floor element. On the one hand, this allows the end wall of the shower floor element to be supplemented, at least in one subarea, by the discharge section, but at the end of the recessed area, namely at least by the extent of the discharge flange section.

It is also preferable insofar that the drain flange part forms the end face in the grip of a recess wall of the shower tray element.

Another preferred idea of the invention relates to a shower floor element which is adapted in its overall size to the size (only) of the drain part. Such that a maximum dimension of the shower floor element in area extent of the shower area, for example, three times or less corresponds to a lowest part of the drain part in extension of this drain part width. At the same time, however, the adaptation should preferably be such that the shower floor element does not have to widen outside the smallest drain part width in order to even be able to receive the drain part in the region of its maximum dimensions. On the other hand, such a shower floor element is essentially reduced to the dimensions which are just required for receiving the drainage part, and moreover leaves the greatest possible freedom for the individual design of a shower place.

Such a shower tray element may have an adapter portion or an adapter portion of a shower tray element with features and features in one of the variants as described in detail above.

Another idea of the invention relates to the configuration of the adapter part in the horizontal direction. In this respect, a possible design also provides that the adapter part is designed in several parts in the horizontal direction. Each of the parts has a partial section of the adapter, for example on the one hand a first end area together with a part of the central area, on the other hand a second end area, likewise with a part of the central area. To form the actual adapter part so several parts are to be mounted in the horizontal direction next to each other or add to each other. As a result, it can be achieved, in particular, that it is possible to adapt to a large number of different sizes of a specific basic sequence type with a few parts, for example two parts or three parts. In the case of a gutter, the two parts may be provided so that the largest gutter from a particular series of a particular manufacturer is receivable therein. If then a smaller gutter can be used, only a relevant separation of material is made on one of the parts and the parts then joined together again, which leads correspondingly to a smaller extension of the length of the receptacle for the gutter part. An incorrect area then possibly resulting in the shower floor element can be closed by a filler.

In this respect, but also in principle, it can be provided that the adapter part and shower tray element are provided in juxtaposition, such that the adapter part forms a peripheral edge of the shower tray element and at least partially forms a second peripheral edge of the shower tray element. This concerns obviously rectangular or square, trapezoidal or like designed shower floor elements. If a circular shape of the shower tray element is given, the adapter part to be attached in this way forms at least a substantial part of the circumference, that is, for example, more than 10 or 20% of the circumferential length of the shower tray element. In the event that a juxtaposition of the shower floor element or the adapter part is provided in this sense and in an embodiment of the shower floor element of several superimposed plate parts, it is also preferred that a top, preferably for example by means of a sealing layer on the upper side watertight trained plate member in juxtaposition to the adapter part is provided and that the uppermost plate member and the adapter part sit together on a lower continuous plate member. This juxtaposition of adapter part and shower floor element also allows in particular for a simple replacement of an adapter part, which is aligned approximately to another basic shape of a process, but insofar as it is equipped to selectively accommodate several sizes of this basic form. The fact that the plate parts sit together on a lower, continuous plate part, can still achieve a cheap installation on site.

In this connection, it is particularly preferred that the adapter part is provided as forming at least partially three edge regions of the shower tray element. Further preferred in this context is that an edge region is completely formed here by the adapter part. Two of the border areas may be located opposite one another.

The invention further provides a method for creating a shower floor element with a drain part, wherein the shower floor element has a recess.

In order here to achieve a favorable preparation with regard to desired different processes in the production of one or the other shower floor element, the invention proposes that a receiving part is provided, that initially the drain part inserted into the receiving part and, preferably, with respect to the receiving part is sealed and that only then the receiving part so amended in the adapted to the receiving part (ie always the same) recess of the shower tray element is used. This makes it possible to achieve low that the insertion of the drain part in the receiving part manufacturer side, ie factory already performed and the related assembly, in particular sealing the drain part against the receiving part not artisanal on site, but can be made safely under the production conditions of a manufacturer. The trade can be supplied with such a procedure with a plurality of fitting to a shower floor element, already equipped each with a different expiration part receiving parts, so that a customer can make an individual compilation under this selection. With the same basic shape of the receiving part, a plurality of identical receiving parts, but equipped with different processes in detail, can be selected, so that a large range of variation in terms of the actual process to be installed is given. Thus, a plurality of receiving parts are provided with different expiration parts and the receiving part to be used is selected from this plurality. The plurality of differently equipped receiving parts can mean about a drain part series of a manufacturer, so that with respect to a type of drain different receiving parts have different sizes of this drain part.

In a possible embodiment, it is provided that the receiving part is not watertight formed therein befindlichem, manufacturer-inserted drain part, because the installation of the receiving part is made only on site, on site and there takes place anyway a seal of the receiving part towards the (surrounding) shower floor element. In this case, in particular when sealing tapes are used, a watertight formation of the receiving part outside of the discharge part anyway results since the receiving part, in any case its remaining free surface, is preferably so small that the sealing tapes required for sealing the transition to the shower tray element, for example, cover this area can cover completely without further ado.

It is further provided that the sealing of the discharge part is made in the receiving part with respect to a prior to the onset of the discharge part on the receiving part applied sealing layer. For example, a protruding flange of the drainage part simply connected to this sealing layer, such as glued be.

Furthermore, it is preferably provided that the receiving part is sealed in the shower floor element. This can be done by sealing strips, which bridge the gap between the receiving part and the surrounding sealing base element, both on the upper side, and optionally on the underside. In this respect, a prefabricated sealing collar, for example in the case of a circular design of the receiving part in a corresponding circular path form, can also be provided.

Said sealing tape can also be provided at the factory sealed at least in the receiving part and / or the surrounding area of the shower floor element. It must then be sealed on site only a portion of the sealing tape (each).

Shown and described, first with reference to Fig. 1 , a shower floor element 1, which consists in the embodiment of a foam, namely preferably a particle foam such as EPS foam. In this case, the EPS foam may be provided in a density of, for example, 20-110 kg / m ³ , a preferred range being 25-50 kg / m ³ . However, the disclosure also includes all intermediate values within the stated limits, in particular in 1 kg / m ³ steps.

The shower tray element 1 has on the upper side a receptacle 2, which is preferably formed in the form of a recess, for a discharge part 3, cf. Fig. 2 , The drain part 3 according to Fig. 2 is a gutter in the embodiment. It is elongated, ie a dimension in one direction is at least twice the dimension in the other direction. However, such a drainage part can also be a square drainage part or a triangular or other drainage part.

The drain part 3 is in the assembled state, cf. Fig. 4 , received in the receptacle 2 by means of an adapter part 4. The adapter part 4 is adapted in the embodiment in length and width of the receptacle 2. This means that at least in the delivery state, the adapter part 4 ends with end edge sides 5, 6 of the shower tray element 1. The adapter part 4 can also be changed by cutting or cutting to length.

The adapter part 4 is in more detail, as from Fig. 1 can be seen, designed as a long piece, with a greater length and greater width than the usual here possibly to be used drain parts corresponds. It has, leaving the end and side areas, which pass in the inserted state substantially planar in the surrounding shower floor element, a stepped receiving recess with a central recessed gutter and laterally poorly graded areas. In the recessed area, the actual gutter comes for recording, while in the less lowered areas, the flange of such a drain part, see Fig. 2 , come into play.

In the embodiment, the receptacle 2 is formed continuously on the shower tray element, i. it opens into the opposite end edge sides 5, 6 of the shower tray element 1. The receiving recess or receptacle 2 is in the form of a channel with a straight bottom 7 and substantially perpendicular thereto extending side walls 8, 9 is formed.

In the embodiment, the adapter part 4 consists of a particle foam in the embodiment described above.

The shower tray element 1 has a coating, as already explained earlier. Also, the adapter part 4 may be coated, but it is preferably not.

On the underside, cf. Fig. 3 , The shower floor element 1 is arranged in the embodiment crossing, also provided here continuously, tube receiving recesses 10, 11 provided. These recesses are provided for the laying of drain pipes, in the illustrated plurality to immediately cover the largest possible variety of installation options.

In the region of the receptacle 2, a pipe recess 12 is provided for receiving, for example, a drain pot 13. This pipe recess 12 is, here in the longitudinal direction of the receptacle 2, provided significantly larger than would be required for receiving the drain pot 13 in itself. However, the process can 3 according to Fig. 2 be modified, for example, that it is separated on one side, so is shortened length. Then the drain flange 14 formed on the drain part 3 is no longer centered with respect to the longitudinal extent of this drainage channel shown here. However, if one then optically from above a center orientation of the process then makes the drain flange 14 is correspondingly offset laterally. Due to the size of the pipe recess 12 but also such an offset can be added without further notice.

As can be seen, the receptacle 2 itself is only partially formed, namely here in the region of the pipe recess 12, as a passage opening. Otherwise, it is only sunk into the drain part 1 trough-like.

Related to the Fig. 5 and 6 a further embodiment of the shower floor element is described.

The shower floor element 1 according to the Fig. 5 and 6 is characterized by free-projecting element projections 15, 16. These element projections 16 serve to cooperate with an overflow section 3 arranged in the installed state, which consists in detail of a drain base 17 with a drain collector 18 and a drain line 19, moreover of foot sections 20. A drain edge section 21 is inserted into the drain base 17 from above.

The element projections 15,16 form accordingly, in particular by their upper-side surfaces, an adapter region for receiving the drain part 3. In the illustrated embodiment, see also Fig. 6 The outermost element projections 15 are at the same time a displacement limit for the drain part 3. In some respects, these are also the inner element projections 16, since they also largely prevent a displacement in view of the drain collector 18 received therebetween in the installed state.

The element projections 15, 16 extend with respect to a front edge side 22, as superficially in Fig. 6 overall, across this front edge 22. They are free-standing formations.

As can be seen, the element projections 15, 16 in the thickness direction D of the shower tray element 1 have a different vertical height. The outermost element projections 15 are formed higher than the two inner element projections 16. This order the support height of the drain 3. The process 3 is not on the outermost element projections 15, but only on the two contrast inner element projections 16th

As can be seen, the element projections 15, 16 are furthermore of the same material as the shower bottom element 1, which in detail is formed congruently with each other from two, with the exception of the inner element projections 16 and the free space 23 extending therebetween. In this case, however, 24 formations which correspond to the inner element projections 16 are missing on the upper plate part. On the other hand, vertical partial areas of the element projections 15 are also formed on the upper plate part 24. The lower plate member 25 has correspondingly four element projections, the upper plate member 24 in contrast, only two element projections.

Between two element projections 15, 16 and 16, 16 and 16, 15 each have a connecting wall 26, 27, 28, which are set back relative to the outermost end edge regions forming end faces 29 and 30 of the element projections to the interior of the shower tray element 1 out. In this case, a further inwardly extending clearance 23 is formed between the two inner element projections 16.

When installed, see Fig. 6 , the drain part 3 is located in the central region with respect to in Fig. 6 apparent end edge side 6 on the two central element projections 16, while the two outer element projections 15, which at the same time also form corners 43 of the shower floor element, limit the flow 3 only laterally. A marginal edge 44 of the discharge part 3 also forms part of the end edge side 6.

In a region between the outermost element projections 15 and the respective associated inner element projection 16, the drain part 3 is also supported by means of screws height adjustable foot parts 20.

Related to the Fig. 7 and 8th is another shower floor element shown. This shower floor element is composed of a plurality of plate parts 24, 25. At the same time, the upper plate part 24 has a sloping surface towards the discharge part 3 inserted into an insertion recess in the upper plate part 24. The insertion recess 32 is shown in detail in the illustration Fig. 8 seen. It consists of a groove formed in the upper plate member 24, each having in the outer regions a bottom 33 formed by the same upper plate member 24, and centrally has a through hole 34. The drain part 3 in this embodiment consists of a drain part 17 with a downwards pointing connecting piece, which can be plugged together with a drain collector 18, which is followed by a drain line. Below the drain lower part 17, a film blank 45 is provided, from above, a drain restriction 35 is inserted into the drain part 17. The film blank 45 serves by means of edge overhang for the usual watertight connection to a surrounding soil.

In the plate bottom 25 is, as from the Fig. 7 and 9 emerges, a Verrohrungsaussparung 36 formed for receiving the drain pot as well as the Drain line. Furthermore, a lower component 37 may be provided as the third bottom plate member.

In the assembled state, as can be seen from the exploded view according to Fig. 7 or the sectional view according to Fig. 9 results, the casing recess 36 is partially covered by the upper plate member 24.

In detail, the film section 45 engages over an outer recess wall 38.

In reference to Fig. 10 a shower floor element 1 is shown, which two blunt, breitseitenflächig, abutting shower floor elements 46, 47, of which one, in the embodiment, the element 47, the receptacle for the drain part forms. It is a stepped recess 39 is formed, which expires horizontally freely in the step-like lowered level. Namely, in the illustrated rectangular shape of the shower floor element toward an end face and at the same time to two edge sides, partially forming the edge edge so far. In this stepped recess 39, an adapter portion exhibiting adapter part is used, which has wall pieces 40 in its adapter region. The wall pieces 40 can also be broken or cut out as needed, in whole or in part (based on a single piece of wall). It is preferred to leave them intact, as they are further preferred already formed on different sizes of expiry parts to be used, which are fixed there immediately by interlocking system. The drainage parts may have downwardly projecting anchoring extensions, which can intervene between two wall pieces 40, for example.
