  • An over a substantially entire side open component is easier to make than tub with entry and exit areas lesser dimensions, but is kept low by the fixed component of the effort and space required for the other part of the open side door covering.
  • the device is characterized in that the bulge is extended upwards by a center column, wherein preferably at least one water guide is integrated in the center column.
  • a center column wherein preferably at least one water guide is integrated in the center column.
  • the center column may additionally comprise at least one water guide, for example for supplying a well inlet integrated in the center column, an overflow or even a shower head, which will preferably be the case with a center column extending beyond the edge of the tub.
  • a stiffening structure for at least the region of the vertical sections of the recess, preferably also the region of the bulge or of the center column, possibly with a connection to a floor construction.
  • a stiffening structure of the water and also by the use of the tub - such as when the user is supported on the tub - recorded and optionally avoided by a connection of the stiffening structure with the bottom or wall a leakage causing deformation of the tub.
  • a simple, low footprint and weight construction is given by an embodiment in which a fork-shaped stiffening structure surrounds the area of the recess on all sides, with two side parts of this structure extending at the edges of the recess up to the tub rim and a central part in the Buckle or center column protrudes at least, preferably also extends at least to the height of the tub rim, at best, the bulge is provided with an opening for the implementation of this central part.
  • the door as a hinged door, which strikes against the inside of the tub and to open inward, or preferably in the direction of the separate component to be opened sliding door is executed, which extends at least up to the height of the tub rim.
  • the water pressure supports the sealing effect with the door closed, so that expensive means for pressing or pulling the door can be avoided.
  • a further increase of the comfort is given by an embodiment in which the separate component is designed as extending in height above the tub rim, possibly also horizontally up to the area of the adjoining end wall, extending shower enclosure.
  • the device is characterized in that at least one end or side wall of the trough, preferably at least the side wall opposite the recess, a substantially horizontal, wide tub rim is provided without subsequent vertical panel.
  • a substantially horizontal, wide tub rim is provided without subsequent vertical panel.
  • the trough is designed as a molded or deep-drawn part, preferably of plastic material, this allows a simple and material-saving production. Thus, two such molded parts can be manufactured together with little material waste, preferably in the deep drawing process.
  • the trough has in the region of the door and / or the separate component formations for their watertight connection, preferably using an internal peripheral seal.
  • FIG. 1 a conventional combined shower and / or bathing device with a lower entry area
  • Fig. 2 shows a first embodiment of a trough for a combined shower and / or bathing device according to the invention in a perspective view
  • Fig. 3 1 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a shower and / or bathing device according to the invention
  • Fig. 4 shows a stiffening structure for the trough of the device according to the invention
  • Fig. 5 is a perspective view from below of a tub with another embodiment of a stiffening structure
  • Fig. 6a and 6b show an embodiment of a shower and / or bathing device according to the invention with sliding door
  • Fig. 7 shows a further embodiment of the invention for a tub for a combined shower and / or bathing device according to the invention.
  • An in FIG. 1 illustrated bathing and shower device 1 consists of a trough 2 with a lowered, approximately at ground level arranged entry area 3, which can be sealed watertight by an optionally over the edge 5 of the tub 2 in the height projecting door 4. It has a bathing area, possibly with an integrated seat surface, and a shower area and can be produced in any desired manner, for example as a coated, for example enamelled deep-drawn part of a metallic material or as a molded or deep-drawn acrylic tub, or as a GRP, CFK or another fiber-reinforced plastic by hand lay-up or spraying method.
  • the door 4 will advantageously be made of a clear, transparent material, such as mineral or plexiglass or acrylic glass, with an inwardly opening door 4 for small bathrooms is advantageous. Door 4 is filled with tub 2 under the water pressure, which contributes to the tightness.
  • the in Fig. 2 Shaped shape has been developed.
  • one of the side walls 2a of the trough 2 is provided with a recess 2b extending substantially over the entire length and depth of the side wall 2a.
  • Such a, over a substantially entire side open component 2 is easier and more economical to make than a tub with entry and exit areas of lesser dimensions in an otherwise closed side wall.
  • two such molded parts can be manufactured together with little material waste, preferably in the deep drawing process.
  • a door 4 is provided, which substantially the Half of this recess 2b covers, while the other half of the recess 2b by another, separate component 6, which is preferably made of a material other than the tub 2, preferably as the door 4 made of a clear, transparent material, is watertight , Nevertheless, according to the invention, the expenditure and pivoting range for the door 4 designed as a pivot door in this illustrated embodiment can be kept low, as it still has to cover only part of the side wall of the tub 2.
