Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the domain of the interior outfitting of passenger ships.
  • the invention relates to a passenger ship fitted with at least one cabin according to the invention, as well as the process for installing this cabin inside this ship.
  • Current cabins generally comprise a sleeping space or "bedroom” and a bathroom which comprises for example a washbasin, a shower and toilet. These cabins are also fitted with a porthole or window giving onto the exterior of the ship.
  • cabins often comprise a unit prefabricated in a workshop prior to being taken on site, (that is, onto the ship). In this case, it would be preferable to adapt them so they allow integrating a bathtub, without as such complicating or prolonging installation of a series of cabins on the deck of the ship.
  • the document EP 1 816 067 describes a cabin assembly for passenger ship comprising a bathroom module with a bathtub. Nevertheless, this bathtub is not embedded in the floor of the cabin.
  • the document GB 2 056 922 relates to a small boat, such as a sailing boat comprising a liner that may be fitted in a well to provide an open cockpit or that may be inverted and refitted to the well to provide an auxiliary cabin.
  • the document US 5 628 484 refers to a water basin support placed on the ground and used to hold and stabilize a water basin during the fabrication of a floor around it.
  • EP 1 302 397 describes a balcony for the cabin of a passenger ship and GB 2 050 256 a boat hull suitable for use on inland waterways and which comprises two different floor levels.
  • the aim of the invention is to propose a ship, equipped with cabins responding to the above criteria, and a process for installation of such a cabin on the deck of a ship.
  • the invention relates to a passenger ship according to claim 1 comprising at least one deck on which several cabins intended for accommodating said passengers are arranged.
  • At least one of said cabins is equipped with a bathtub
  • said deck comprises at least one recess which terminates at the level of its upper face via an opening and said bathtub is fitted flush in said recess, such that its rim is flush with the level or substantially flush with the level of the floor of said cabin.
  • the occupant of the cabin retains the visual impression of having a spacious cabin.
  • the invention also relates to a process for installation of a cabin for accommodating passengers, on the deck of a passenger ship according to claim 8.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a cabin 1, called a "luxury cabine”, comprising a prefabricated unit which comprises walls respectively forming its side walls 11, its ceiling 12 and its floor 13. This floor constitutes the floor of said cabin.
  • a "luxury cabine” comprising a prefabricated unit which comprises walls respectively forming its side walls 11, its ceiling 12 and its floor 13. This floor constitutes the floor of said cabin.
  • This cabin 1 which, in the example illustrated in the figures, is rectangular in shape, extends in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the ship. In other words, this cabin extends between a corridor, situated to the left in Figure 1 and not illustrated therein and the exterior of the ship, situated to the right in Figure 1 .
  • the cabin 1 comprises a sleeping space 2 or "bedroom", inside which is positioned a bed 20, under which storage elements 21 can optionally be provided.
  • This cabin 1 also comprises a sanitary cell 3 equipped with a washbasin 30, a shower 31 and toilet 32.
  • the cabin 1 also comprises a private balcony 4, fitted with bay windows 40 giving onto the exterior of the ship.
  • the cabin 1 also comprises a bathtub 5, fitted flush into the floor.
  • Bathtub designates not only conventional bathtubs but also all bathtubs or basins fitted with hydrojets or devices for diffusing jets of air, such as jacuzzis, and the dimensions of which are adapted to receive one or more persons.
  • the ship inside which this cabin is mounted comprises at least one deck 6, generally a plurality of superposed decks 6.
  • each deck 6 comprises an upper plane 61, constituted by an assembly of flat sheets and reinforced by primary and secondary stiffeners 63 which extend under the plane 61.
  • These primary stiffeners are longitudinal beams or “girders” and transversal beams or “deckhead beams”.
  • the deck 6 thus has a certain thickness.
  • the upper face of the deck bears reference numeral 610.
  • the deck 6 comprises at least one "recess" 64, arranged under the upper plane 61, between the primary stiffeners 63, this recess 64 terminating at the upper face 610 of the deck 6 via an opening 640.
  • the form and the dimensions of the opening 640 and of the recess 64 are such that the bathtub 5 can be fitted flush therein.
  • the term "recess" designates the space which extends under the upper plane 61 of the deck 6, vertically to the opening 640 and the depth of which does not exceed the height of the primary stiffeners 63.
  • the opening 640 is made either by cutting out sheets making up the upper plane 61 or directly during assembly of these sheets.
  • the recess 64 is delimited by a preferably metallic bin 66 whereof the upper rim is fixed to the upper plane 61 of the deck by any appropriate fixing means, such as fixing feet or welding.
  • the bin 66 is made so as to support constraints of loads associated with filling the bathtub and being occupied by the passenger.
  • the bin 66 also ensures the role of firebreak between two tweendecks in the event of fire, and watertight seal of the tweendeck situated below, in the event of a bathtub 5 leak.
  • the bin 66 has dimensions slightly larger than those of the bathtub 5 to be able to contain not only the former, but also the elements 7 of piping and connections connecting the discharge orifice 50 of the bathtub 5 to the grey water discharge pipes 7.
  • An inspection cover 67 can also be provided on one of the faces of the bin 66.
  • the portion (referenced 130) of the floor 13 surrounding the bathtub 5 is also fitted with an opening 131 whereof the dimensions correspond to those of the opening 640 of the recess 64 arranged in the deck 6.
  • the bathtub 5 is thus fitted flush, such that its rim 51 is flush with the level of the floor 130 of said cabin, or substantially flush with the level thereof.
  • Support and setting elements of the bathtub 5 can also be positioned in the base of the bin.
  • the bathtub 5 is also enclosed by a "deck drain” or overflow drain 8, on at least one part of its periphery.
  • the overflow 8 is also connected to the water discharge pipes 7.
  • the bathtub 5 is preferably fitted flush in one part 130 of the floor 13 which extends between the bedroom 2 and the bay window 40, more preferably between the bedroom 2 and the balcony 4 when the latter is present.
  • the bathtub 5 can also be fitted flush in the part 132 of the floor 13 of the cabin which extends at the level of the private balcony 4.
  • the fitted flush position of the bathtub 5 allows the occupant of the cabin 1 to keep the full sea view, since his field of vision is not blocked by the bathtub when it is in his bedroom 2.
  • the position of the bathtub 5, near the bay window 40 also allows the occupant of the cabin to take a bath while having an unobstructed view of the sea. In this way, the louvers 41 of the bay window 40 can be shifted to fully obstruct the bay window 40.
  • the bay window 40 can be arranged between the balcony 4 and the rest of the cabin, the balcony 4 opening to the exterior.
  • the bay window 40 is advantageously constituted by several sliding leaves giving access to the balcony 4.
  • the cabin 1 comprises at least two different floor levels.
  • the floor of the bedroom 2 (with reference numeral 133) is at a level higher than the floor 130 enclosing the bathtub 5, the latter being optionally at a level higher than the floor 132 of the balcony 4.
  • This stepped arrangement of the cabin 1 between the corridor side and the exterior further reinforces the impression of space inside this cabin, and frees up the sea view through the bay window 40, for the passenger in the bedroom part 2 of his cabin.
  • the prefabricated unit which comprises it is installed on the deck 6, such that the opening 131 made in its floor 130 and that 640 made in the deck 6 are aligned vertically.
  • the bathtub 5 is later fitted flush in the recess 64, via the two openings 131, 640.
  • the cabin 1 cannot be prefabricated, but is assembled directly on the deck 6 of the ship.
  • the floor of the cabin can be formed not by the floor 13, but directly by the upper plane 61 of the deck.
  • This plane 61 is generally covered by a floor covering, such as wall-to-wall carpet, parquet or a layer of plastic material, for example.
  • This upper plane 61 will advantageously conform for present stepped levels as described previously for the floor 13.
