Definitions

  • the invention relates to an alcove for mounting in an opening in a wall, which alcove comprises a rear wall and mutually connecting side walls standing upright along the peripheral edge of the rear wall, wherein the free ends of the side walls enclose an access opening of the alcove, a finishing element arranged around the access opening and the side walls of the alcove, wherein arranged in a first surface of the finishing element is a finishing element opening and a continuous hole extending therefrom.
  • a hole has two openings with a hole wall extending between the edges of the openings and along the whole periphery of the edges of the openings.
  • the finishing element opening in the alcove according to the preamble is therefore one of the two openings of the continuous hole.
  • An alcove according to the preamble is for instance known from US 7357148 and EP 3064656 .
  • it is proposed to mount the free ends of the side walls flush with the wall, after which a rectangular frame can be arranged on the wall for further finishing.
  • This rectangular frame is manufactured from a sheet, and positioning of this frame relative to the side walls requires the necessary accuracy during mounting of the alcove in the wall.
  • EP 3064656 also describes another embodiment, wherein the free ends of the side walls protrude through the finishing element opening.
  • the rectangular frame is hereby positioned accurately relative to the alcove, but the end surfaces of the free ends of the side walls are visible.
  • the free ends of the side walls are formed by bent wall parts, so that an edge with U-shaped cross-section is formed, but such a bending operation increases production costs.
  • the drawback of such an embodiment is that a groove is formed between the frame and the inner surface of the side walls because of the radius of curvature of the horizontal flange.
  • This groove is undesirable from an aesthetic viewpoint, but also allows dirt to accumulate in this groove.
  • the frame is often manufactured from (sheet) steel, and it is desirable from an aesthetic viewpoint that it extends to a position beyond the radius of the outward bent flange, an edge results which can be deemed sharp. Making this edge less sharp increases production costs.
  • finishing element opening is congruent with the access opening of the alcove, wherein the first surface lies against the free ends of the side walls, and wherein the finishing element has at least a second surface which lies against at least an outer side of the upright side walls.
  • the finishing element opening is congruent with the access opening of the alcove, i.e. the dimensions of the finishing element opening are the same as the dimensions of the access opening, the finishing element opening will be able to connect to the access opening without height differences, so that the inner surface of the side walls lies flush with the finishing element opening and the hole wall of the continuous hole extending from the finishing element opening. As a result, no appreciable groove is present, and no more dirt will remain behind.
  • the finishing element can be embodied as a single cover frame or can be constructed as separate profiles, together forming a finishing element with a central finishing element opening.
  • the at least second surface of the finishing element provides for an unambiguous positioning of the finishing element relative to the side walls in that the second surface lies against the outer side of the side walls.
  • the finishing element can be placed on the rear wall with upright side walls in simple manner, wherein a precise positioning of the finishing element opening on the access opening is automatically obtained.
  • the additional advantage hereof is that a relevant model of finishing element can be placed as desired on a rear wall with upright side walls.
  • the rear wall with upright side walls can thus already be arranged in the wall, and it is possible to select the finishing element only then when for instance the wall tiles are placed.
  • the finishing element can also be exchanged after some time.
  • the frame can also be easily manufactured from a different material, such as wood, metal, corian and the like, without it having to be assembled in the production run, because the frame is separate from the alcove and, by the sealing, is fastened at the same time.
  • the rear wall with upright walls can further be sealed onto the surrounding wall in simple manner by means of a suitable sealing means, after which the finishing element is arranged.
  • finishing element will also cover these inaccuracies.
  • the finishing element can further also cover any fastening material with which the rear wall with side walls is mounted on the surrounding wall.
  • finishing element provides the option of arranging a plurality of rear walls with side walls in a wall and finish them with a single finishing element. Or it is possible to integrate into the finishing element a control panel for a flushing reservoir arranged under the alcove.
  • the finishing element comprises a plate part, wherein the continuous hole is arranged in the plate part; and wherein the finishing element comprises at least one profile with L-shaped cross-section with one leg arranged against the surface of the plate part, for instance by adhesion or welding, in which the finishing element opening is arranged and wherein the other leg of the profile forms the second surface and lies against at least an outer side of the upright walls.
  • a finishing element can be provided in highly advantageous manner.
  • the finishing element can take a thin form by choosing a suitable thickness for the plate part.
  • the at least one profile with L-shaped cross-section ensures that the plate part can be positioned correctly, with the finishing element opening aligned with the access opening of the rear wall with upright side walls.
  • the finishing element comprises a number of mutually connecting profiles with L-shaped cross-section arranged around the finishing element opening, wherein the first leg of each L-profile is arranged against the surface of the plate part in which the finishing element opening is arranged and wherein the other leg of each L-profile lies against a side wall.
  • the thus formed finishing element can then be placed on the free ends of the side walls just as a lid on a box.
  • the one leg of the at least one profile is preferably adhered to the plate part.
  • the plate part will hereby not deform, whereby possible additional processes are unnecessary. A very small thickness can thus moreover be chosen for the plate part.
  • the finishing element comprises a body in which the continuous hole with the finishing element opening is arranged, wherein the body forms a collar all around the finishing element opening, such that the continuous hole is a stepped hole formed by the collar, wherein the free ends of the side walls protrude into the collar and the outer side of the upright side walls lie at least partially against the inner side of the collar, and wherein the free ends lie against the step of the stepped hole.
  • the finishing element forms a relatively thick edge relative to the previous embodiment with the plate part.
  • Materials such as wood, stone and plastic can hereby be applied for the finishing element.
  • the rear wall with upright side walls must protrude partially from the wall, so that the free ends of the side wall can protrude into the collar.
  • the inner surface of the side walls also continues flush via the finishing element opening to the surface of the hole wall of the continuous hole.
  • a door which can normally be tiled can in the same way be filled with a material which runs to a position just over the upright edge of the door, whereby a uniform finish can be obtained which is not disrupted by visible different materials.
  • the height of the stepped part in the stepped hole is preferably the same as the wall thickness of the free ends of the side walls.
  • the finishing element can thus be slid onto the side walls and a flat inner wall is obtained in simple manner from the inner walls of the side walls and the hole wall.
  • the most obvious form of the rear wall is rectangular, so that the upright side walls form a block -shaped alcove on which the finishing element is placed.
  • the finishing element opening is therefore congruent with the rear wall, and the cross-section of the continuous hole is also congruent therewith.
  • the invention further comprises a combination of an alcove and a wall with an opening, wherein the rear wall with connecting side walls is arranged in the opening and wherein the finishing element lies against the outer side of the wall.
  • the wall preferably comprises a finishing layer, such as a tile layer.
  • FIGS 1A-1C show a first embodiment of an alcove 1 according to the invention.
  • Alcove 1 has a rear wall 2 with mutually connecting side walls 3, 4, 5, 6 standing upright along the peripheral edge of rear wall 2.
  • the free ends of side walls 3, 4, 5, 6 form an access opening with a main dimension H1.
  • a finishing element 7, 8 with a plate part 7 and L-profiles 8 is arranged around the access opening of alcove 1.
  • This hole has a finishing element opening and, because the main dimensions H1 and H2 are the same and the finishing element opening and the access opening are congruent with each other, hole wall 9 continues with the finishing element opening flush into the inner side 30 of side walls 3, 4, 5, 6.
  • the L-profiles 8 lie against the outer side 31 of side walls 3, 4, 5, 6, whereby finishing element 7, 8 can be positioned accurately.
  • FIGS 2A-2C show a second embodiment of an alcove 10 according to the invention.
  • Alcove 10 has a rear wall 11 with mutually connecting side walls 12, 13, 14, 15 standing upright along the peripheral edge of rear wall 11.
  • the free ends of side walls 12, 13, 14, 15 form an access opening with a main dimension H1.
  • This hole has a finishing element opening 17.
  • Body 16 further forms a collar 19 with main dimension H3 all around the finishing element opening 17.
  • the continuous hole with hole wall 18 and collar 19 form a continuous stepped hole.
  • main dimension H3 The narrowing from main dimension H3 to main dimension H2 in the continuous stepped hole forms the finishing element opening 17, which is congruent with the access opening of the alcove. Because main dimensions H1 and H2 are the same, the inner surface of the stepped hole runs flush into the inner surface of side walls 12, 13, 14, 15.
  • FIGS 3A-3C show a third embodiment of the alcove 20 according to the invention, which largely corresponds to the embodiment according to figures 2A-2C .
  • the same components are therefore designated with the same reference numerals.
  • Figure 4A shows a cross-sectional view of a combination according to the invention, wherein an alcove 1 according to figure 1 has been placed into a pre-wall 40 with a tile layer 41. Finishing element 7, 8 still protrudes with a leg into the opening in the wall 40, 41, while the other leg with the plate part 7 thereon lies against the outer side of tile layer 41. A sealant edge 42 is further provided between plate part 7 and tile layer 41 for the purpose of further finishing and sealing.
  • Figure 4B shows a cross-sectional view of a combination according to the invention, wherein an alcove 20 has been placed partially with side walls 13 into a pre-wall 50 with tile layer 51.
  • the free ends of side walls 13 protrude outside the opening in wall 50 and tile layer 51 because body 16 has been placed with the collar around the free ends.
  • Figure 5A shows a fourth embodiment 60 according to the invention, wherein the side walls 61 form an access opening 62.
  • a finishing element 63, 64 Arranged around access opening 62 is a finishing element 63, 64, which is preferably formed from an extrusion profile.
  • Part 63 forms a frame with a frame opening 65, which is congruent with access opening 62.
  • the part 64 lying at right angles thereto lies against the outer side of side walls 61, so that frame 63, 64 is positioned relative to access opening 62.
  • a cavity 66 which can be filled with for instance a sealing mastic, is formed between side wall 61 and part 64.
  • Figure 5B shows a fifth embodiment 70 which is largely similar to the fourth embodiment 60 of figure 5A .
  • finishing element 73 Placed on side walls 71 is a finishing element 73, 74, wherein part 73 forms a frame with a finishing element opening 75, which is congruent with access opening 72.
  • the part 74 at right angles to part 73 takes a wave form and can function as resilient part, whereby finishing element 73, 74 can be arranged clampingly round side walls 71.
  • a cavity 76 is likewise formed with side wall 71, in which cavity a sealing mass can be arranged.
  • FIG. 6 shows a sixth embodiment 80 of the alcove according to the invention.
  • the alcove has side walls 81 which define an access opening 82.
  • Part 84 lies at right angles to part 83 and lies flat against the outer side of side wall 81.
  • the foam part can optionally also be a piece of sheet steel bent in stepped manner, or a rubber which is adhered round the alcove.
