Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary space, such as a toilet space, comprising the features of claim 1, i.e. amongst others:
  • a pre-wall is understood to mean an element separating the flushing reservoir from the sanitary space. This can for instance be plasterboard, but also a tile layer or block wall.
  • the flushing reservoir is also often referred to here as build-in reservoir.
  • a build-in reservoir often comprises a frame arranged against the wall, a container for water arranged in the frame and a flushing mechanism mounted in the container which ensures that, following operation of a flush button, the water flows out on the underside of the container to a toilet bowl.
  • a pre-wall which is often covered with tiles.
  • the toilet bowl is then mounted thereagainst and connected to the underside of the container and anchored to the frame.
  • the build-in reservoir can also have, instead of a frame, a self-supporting housing or structure.
  • Such a build-in reservoir is normally used in wet construction.
  • a wall is often also erected here around at least a part of the build-in reservoir and the tiles can be arranged directly onto the reservoir.
  • an opening is provided in the front side of the flushing reservoir. Subsequently arranged in the pre-wall is a corresponding opening which is covered with a push plate. In addition to having the function of covering the opening, this push plate has the further function of operating button.
  • the flushing mechanism is activated by pressing on the push plate and the flushing water can flow via the underside of the reservoir to the toilet bowl.
  • a horizontal wall part which spans the distance between the pre-wall and the real wall.
  • Different items such as for instance a storage box, can be placed on such a horizontal wall part, also referred to as shelf. It is also possible in such a shelf embodiment to arrange the push plate in the horizontal wall part.
  • the second trend which can be seen in the field of toilet spaces is the reduction in size of the push plate. It is deemed more aesthetically attractive for the push plate to be small.
  • the drawback hereof is that the opening for access to the flushing reservoir is correspondingly smaller, whereby maintenance of the flush reservoir is made more difficult.
  • Push plates are further also being made increasingly flatter or even integrated into the tiles.
  • Document EP1946688A2 which is seen as forming the closest prior art document, shows a pre-wall of the described type with several container-like elements integrated into the pre-wall to house sanitary accessories, such as a soap dispenser or a toilet paper holder.
  • the container-like parts are removable to be able to exchange them according to user's needs.
  • a sanitary space according to the preamble which is characterized in that a service opening is arranged in the pre-wall, which service opening is positioned at least partially outside the projection of the flushing reservoir on the pre-wall such that access can be gained via the service opening to the secondary space around the flushing reservoir.
  • the service opening is thus positioned such that access can be gained via the service opening to the space around the flushing reservoir. Access can then be gained via this secondary space to the flushing reservoir, but also to other objects arranged in the secondary space.
  • the service opening is closable. Closing of the service opening is possible by means of an aesthetically designed plate, a mirror, a tile and so on. Since the closing part no longer need be integrated with a push plate, there is great freedom in design of the part for closing the service opening.
  • a box-like part is arranged in the service opening such that a recess is formed in the pre-wall. At least a part of this box-like part is removable to gain access to the secondary space.
  • the partially removable part can for instance be a hatch, although it is recommended that the whole box-like part can be removed in order to thus obtain a maximum opening.
  • the recess provides the possibility of setting down for instance a tray, a drawer or other items.
  • the box-like part comprises a frame, the frame being mounted in the service opening such that the box-like part is releasable.
  • the box-like part or recess can be easily mounted on this frame. This frame moreover makes it easy to remove the box-like part so that access can be gained to the secondary space.
  • the pre-wall is preferably tiled. By tiling the pre-wall the pre-wall forms one whole with the other walls which are usually also tiled.
  • the pre-wall comprises on the top side a horizontal part running toward the wall of the sanitary space.
  • a horizontal part running toward the wall of the sanitary space.
  • the service opening can be arranged in the horizontal part of the pre-wall.
  • the horizontal part is usually arranged at a height, whereby it is readily possible to look at the top of the horizontal part.
  • the operating means of the flushing reservoir is arranged on an edge of the service opening.
  • the operating means can be arranged at any desired location. By arranging the operating means on an edge of the service opening it is not necessary to arrange additional openings in the pre-wall for the purpose of arranging the operating means.
  • a dispenser with a container for cleaning liquid is arranged in the secondary space, wherein the dispenser adds cleaning liquid to the flushing reservoir.
  • the cleaning liquid can also be added in the flush pipe directly below the reservoir during flushing.
  • Another embodiment of the sanitary space according to the invention comprises a toilet roll holder with a feed opening and a discharge opening, wherein the discharge opening is arranged in the pre-wall and wherein the feed opening is accessible via the service opening.
  • a brush can possibly also be placed in addition to a toilet roll holder/storage.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment 1 of a sanitary space, in particular a toilet space, according to the invention.
  • Toilet space 1 has a floor 2.
  • Walls 3 stand along the periphery of floor 2.
  • a pre-wall 4 is arranged in front of one of the walls 3 (see also figure 2 ). This pre-wall 4 extends over the full height of toilet space 1.
  • a secondary space 5 is formed between wall 3 and pre-wall 4.
  • a frame 6 with a flushing reservoir 7 is arranged in this secondary space 5.
  • a toilet bowl 8 is further arranged against pre-wall 4. Flushing reservoir 7 is connected via a pipe 9 to this toilet bowl 8.
  • FIG. 10 Shown in broken lines 10 in figure 1 is the projection of flushing reservoir 7 on pre-wall 4.
  • a service opening 11 is arranged in pre-wall 4 outside this projection 10. Via this service opening 11 it is possible to access the secondary space 5 from the toilet space itself, i.e. from the space in which toilet bowl 8 is present, in order to thus carry out maintenance on for instance flushing reservoir 7.
  • a box-like part 12 which forms a recess in pre-wall 4. Items can be placed in this recess 12, such as for instance a stack of magazines.
  • FIG. 3 shows a second, not claimed, embodiment of a toilet space 20 according to the invention.
  • This toilet space 20 also has a floor 21 and walls 22 standing along the periphery of the floor.
  • a pre-wall 23 is arranged in front of one of the walls 22. In this embodiment this pre-wall 23 does not extend as far as the ceiling.
  • a horizontal part 24 is arranged on the top side. This horizontal part 24 is removable so that a service opening is formed through which access can be gained to the secondary space between wall 22 and pre-wall 23.
  • pre-wall 23 Further arranged on pre-wall 23 are a toilet bowl 25 and an aesthetically designed push-button 26 with which the flushing mechanism arranged in the secondary space can be operated.
  • FIG. 4 shows a third embodiment 30 of the invention.
  • Toilet space 30 here also has a floor 31 and walls 32 arranged along the periphery of floor 31.
  • a pre-wall 33 extending over the full height is arranged in front of one of the walls 32.
  • a flushing reservoir (not shown) on which toilet bowl 33 is mounted. This corresponds with the embodiment according to figure 1 .
  • a service opening 34 Arranged in pre-wall 32 above the flushing reservoir is a service opening 34 in which is arranged a box-like part 35 which provides a recess in pre-wall 32 and which is at least partly removable.
  • a feed opening 36 is arranged in a side wall of box-like part 35.
  • a discharge opening 37 is arranged adjacently of toilet bowl 33 in pre-wall 32.
  • the feed opening 36 and the discharge opening are connected to each other via a channel 38.
  • This channel 38 is arranged in the secondary space.
  • Toilet rolls 39 can for instance be supplied to channel 38 via feed opening 36.
  • a user can then remove toilet rolls 39 as required via discharge opening 37.
  • Figure 5 shows a fourth embodiment 40 of a sanitary space according to the invention.
  • the embodiment 40 has a build-in reservoir 41 provided with an inspection opening 42 which extends over both the front side and the top side of build-in reservoir 41.
  • a pre-wall 43 is arranged in front of build-in reservoir 41.
  • box-like part 44 Placed in the opening in pre-wall 43 is a box-like part 44 which protrudes partially into inspection opening 42.
  • an operating member 45 Arranged in the bottom of box-like part 44 is an operating member 45 for operating the flushing mechanism in build-in reservoir 41.
  • FIG. 6 shows a fifth embodiment of a toilet space 50 according to the invention.
  • a flushing reservoir 53 is arranged in secondary space 52 behind a pre-wall 51. Flushing reservoir 53 is provided with two operating pins 54, 55 with which the flushing mechanism in flushing reservoir 53 can be operated.
  • duct 56 Arranged adjacently of flushing reservoir 53 in secondary space 52 is a duct 56 which debouches at the opening 57 in pre-wall 51. This duct 56 can be used as storage for toilet rolls which can be removed via opening 57.
  • Both duct 56 and flushing reservoir 53 are open on the top side. These openings, as well as secondary space 52, are closed by box-like part 58 which serves as bridge between pre-wall 51 and the wall lying therebehind.
  • Box-like part 58 has on either side a flange 59 which covers the upright parts 60 of pre-wall 51 and provides for a suitable finishing.
  • Flanges 59 can be shortened in order to make the box-like part 58 suitable for varying dimensions.
  • box-like part 58 Arranged on the underside of box-like part 58 are two operating buttons 61, 62 with which the operating pins 54, 55 can be operated.
  • Figure 7 shows a cross-sectional view of a part of a sanitary space according to the invention.
  • a service opening 71 is provided in a pre-wall 70.
  • a frame 72 is arranged fixedly on the edge of this service opening 71. This frame 72 serves the purpose, among others, of finishing the edge of service opening 71.
  • a box-like part 73 is arranged in frame 72. This box-like part 73 provides for a recess in pre-wall 70. Box-like part 73 is provided with a flange 74 with which box-like part 73 can be fixed to frame 72, for instance with a bolt 75.
  • the box-like part 73 can be easily taken out of pre-wall 70 by loosening the bolts 75. Easy access can hereby be gained to service opening 71 and the space behind pre-wall 70.
