Definitions

  • the invention relates to a drain comprising a collecting tray with a bottom, an upright peripheral wall arranged along the periphery of the bottom, which peripheral wall bounds an inflow opening, and a discharge opening for discharging collected water; wherein the peripheral wall of the collecting tray consists of two parts so as to be height-adjustable; and wherein the peripheral wall comprises a first peripheral wall part, which first peripheral wall part is upright along the periphery of the bottom and is arranged thereon, and wherein the peripheral wall comprises a second peripheral wall part which is displaceable relative to the first peripheral wall part in a direction perpendicularly of the bottom.
  • a drain is for instance known from EP 2140072 .
  • Drains are usually placed in the centre of a floor, after which a tile floor is laid around the drain and, finally, a seal, such as a silicone mastic bead, is arranged between the peripheral wall of the collecting tray of the drain and the surrounding tiles.
  • a seal such as a silicone mastic bead
  • the width of the horizontal flange will ensure that the inflow opening comes to lie at a distance from the wall. This is because the flange is usually for instance more than 2 centimetres wide in order to provide a sufficient attaching surface for a tile membrane, while wall tiles are usually no thicker than 1 centimetre. This will result in a gap of at least 1 centimetre between the wall tiles and the inflow opening of the shower drain, which for instance has to be filled with a specially cut tile strip.
  • the inflow opening of a drain is understood to mean the opening along which the majority of the water to be discharged flows into the drain.
  • a secondary drainage is further provided, this having small individual openings along which small quantities of leaked water, for instance coming from under a tile layer, can still flow into the drain.
  • Such openings for secondary drainage are not deemed to be the inflow opening of a drain in the present invention.
  • a drain according to the preamble which is characterized by an elongate profile with substantially constant cross-section, which profile is arranged parallel to and adjacently of a side of the peripheral wall and wherein the centre of gravity of the cross-section of the profile lies outside the inflow opening, as seen in top view of the drain.
  • the drain according to the invention is very suitable to be placed against a wall.
  • the necessary sealing can then be provided and, finally, an elongate profile is placed adjacently of a side of a peripheral wall. This profile can provide the connection of the drain to the wall so that a seal need not immediately be arranged in the corner where the wall, floor and drain meet.
  • the profile will extend substantially outside the inflow opening, whereby it can provide a bridging between the inflow opening and for instance a wall.
  • the use of a separate profile enables the colour and material of the profile to be chosen as desired. It is thus for instance possible to have the colour of the profile match the colour of the wall tiles.
  • the profile can for instance be made from stainless steel, although a plastic, such as corian, is also possible.
  • the two-part form of the peripheral wall is also often referred to as a collecting tray with single peripheral wall, in which an adjusting frame or tile frame is arranged.
  • This adjusting frame or tile frame lies directly adjacently of or even against the upright peripheral wall and is height-adjustable by means of adjusting means.
  • the height of the upper edge of the peripheral wall can hereby be adjusted to the thickness of the surrounding tiles or finishing layer.
  • An additional advantage of the invention is that the two-part peripheral wall can be easily sealed with a sealant layer. The seal can then still be visually inspected, only after which the elongate profile is arranged on the upper edge of the two-part peripheral wall and a good connection to an adjacent wall can thus be obtained.
  • the elongate profile comprises a depending wall part, which wall part extends via the inflow opening on the inner side of the peripheral wall or in a longitudinal groove in the upper edge of the side of the peripheral wall.
  • the elongate profile comprises a horizontal wall part extending from the upper edge of the side of the peripheral wall and away from the inflow opening.
  • the elongate profile preferably comprises a vertical, upright wall part which is arranged on the distal end of the horizontal wall part, as seen in cross-section.
  • the vertical part can also be used as visible part. It is hereby possible with the vertical part to compensate for a height difference between a shower floor zone and a surrounding bathroom floor, whereby wall tiles adjacent to the bathroom floor can run in a horizontal path to the shower floor zone without interruption. The height difference between this horizontal tile path and the shower floor which lies lower is compensated by the vertical visible part of the profile.
  • Yet another embodiment of the drain according to the invention further comprises a filler body, such as a foam body, arranged on the underside of the horizontal wall part.
  • a filler body such as a foam body
  • a groove into which a side of the peripheral wall can be inserted can be formed in simple manner using the foam part and the depending wall part, so that the profile can be easily coupled to the peripheral wall.
  • Yet another embodiment of the drain further comprises a horizontal peripheral flange arranged on the outer side of the collecting tray.
  • a water-sealing membrane can be attached to the peripheral flange for the purpose of sealing the drain relative to a sub-floor, while the elongate profile can be arranged on the upper edge of the upright peripheral wall for the purpose of a reliable sealing on an adjacent wall of a space.
  • the invention further relates to a combination of a drain according to the invention with a two-part peripheral wall and a sub-floor, wherein the collecting tray is at least partially embedded in the sub-floor, wherein the combination further comprises a seal, such as a silicone mastic bead, arranged between the two parts of the upright peripheral wall.
  • a seal such as a silicone mastic bead
  • the invention also relates to a method for arranging a drain according to the invention in a sub-floor, which method comprises the steps of:
  • the second peripheral wall part is formed integrally with the first peripheral wall part.
  • a height adjustment of the peripheral wall part is not required, while a separately arranged elongate profile is conversely desired on the peripheral wall part in order to for instance bridge the distance between the peripheral wall and an adjacent wall.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment 1 of a drain according to the invention.
  • Drain 1 has a collecting tray with a bottom 2 (see also figure 2 ) and a two-part peripheral wall 3, 4.
  • First peripheral wall part 3 is here arranged on bottom 2 as one whole, while the second peripheral wall part 4 is embodied as adjusting frame.
  • Second peripheral wall part 4 can be adjusted in the height by means of adjusting screws 5 so that upper edge 6 of peripheral wall part 4 can be brought to the same height as a surrounding floor, such as a tile floor.
  • Collecting tray 2, 3, 4 is further provided with an outflow 7 so that water flowing in via inflow opening 8, which is bounded by peripheral wall part 4, and is collected in collecting tray 2, 3, 4 can be discharged.
  • First peripheral wall part 3 is further provided with a horizontal flange 9 to which for instance a water-sealing membrane can be attached.
  • An elongate profile 10 is arranged on upper edge 6 along one side.
  • This elongate profile 10 has in cross-section a horizontal wall part 11, a depending wall part 12 hanging over upper edge 6 into inflow opening 8 and a vertical wall part 13 arranged on the distal end of horizontal wall part 11.
  • a filler body 14 of a foam is arranged under horizontal wall part 11.
  • centre of gravity Z of the cross-section of elongate profile 10 lies outside inflow opening 8, as seen in top view of drain 1.
  • FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment 20 of a drain according to the invention.
  • This drain 20 has a collecting tray with a bottom 21, a single upright peripheral wall 22 and an outflow 23.
  • Peripheral wall 22 here also bounds an inflow opening 24.
  • an elongate profile 26 Arranged on an upper edge 25 of peripheral wall 22 is an elongate profile 26 with a substantially L-shaped cross-section. Arranged under profile 26 is a filler body 27 whereby L-shaped profile 26 supports partially on sub-floor 28.
  • collecting tray 21, 22, 23 is partially embedded in sub-floor 28 and L-shaped profile 26 lies with the vertical part against a wall 29.
  • Sub-floor 28 is tiled with tiles 30, while wall 29 is also provided with tiles 31, which cover the vertical part of L-shaped profile 26.
  • the embodiment according to figures 1 and 2 can also be built into a sub-floor and against a wall in the same manner.
  • the advantage of a separate elongate profile 11, 12, 13; 26 is that use can be made of a collecting tray 2, 3, 4; 21, 22, which is also suitable for installation in the centre of a space. Separate profile 11, 12, 13; 26 can be installed at a later time than collecting tray 2, 3, 4; 21, 22 is embedded in the sub-floor, whereby seals can also be provided more easily.
  • FIG. 4 shows a third embodiment 40 of a drain according to the invention.
  • Drain 40 has a collecting tray with a bottom 41, a peripheral wall 42 and an outflow 43.
  • Peripheral wall 42 bounds an inflow opening 44 of collecting tray 41, 42, 43.
  • a slot 45 Arranged in the upper edge of peripheral wall 42 is a slot 45 into which a depending wall part 46 of an elongate profile 46, 47, 48 can be inserted. Because wall part 46 protrudes into the slot 45, the height of elongate profile 46, 47, 48 relative to collecting tray 41, 42, 43 is adjustable.
  • This embodiment 40 can also be arranged in a sub-floor and close to a wall in the same manner as shown in figure 3 .
