TECHNISCHER BEREICH TECHNICAL PART
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Duschkabinenstangen gemäß dem Oberbegriff der un abhängigen Ansprüche. The present invention relates to shower stall rods according to the preamble of the independent claims.
Der technische Bereich kann grob mit der Verwendung von Leuchtmitteln im sanitären Bereich umrissen werden. 'Sanitär' umfasst hierbei sowohl private Bad- und WC-Räume als auch größere Dusch-, Sauna- und Schwimmbad-Installationen. The technical area can be roughly outlined with the use of lighting in the sanitary area. 'Sanitary' includes both private bath and toilet rooms as well as larger shower, sauna and swimming pool installations.
Das Be- und Aus-Leuchten von Becken, Wannen und Räumen ist hier schon länger Ge genstand von Forschung und Entwicklung. So offenbart die US 4, 535, 489 A bereits 1985 grundlegende Maßnahmen und Vorrichtungen, mit denen eine Badewanne ausge leuchtet werden kann. Die US 4, 875, 958 A entwickelt diese konsequent unter Verwen dung durchsichtiger Kunststoff-Materialien und Gläser weiter. Die WO 98/10219 A offen bart hierzu technisch etablierte Maßnahmen und verfügbare Merkmale für LED-Leucht- streifen. The illumination of basins, baths and rooms has long been the subject of research and development. Thus, US Pat. No. 4,535,489 already discloses basic measures and devices with which a bathtub can be lit out as early as 1985. The US 4,875,958 A develops this consistently using transparent plastic materials and glasses. WO 98/10219 A discloses technically established measures and available features for LED strips.
Gattungsgemäße Gegenstände sehen eine Integration einer Beleuchtung in einen etab lierten Gegenstand des sanitären Bereichs vor. So schlägt die EP 0 446 365 A vor, eine LED-Beleuchtung in einen Duschkopf zu integrieren. Gleichsinnig schlägt die US 5 276 595 A vor, einen Toilettendeckel mit einer LED-Beleuchtungs-Vorrichtung auszustatten. Sinnvolle Prinzipien, Maßnahmen und Merkmale zur Stromversorgung, Regelung, Steu erung und Sensor-Steuerung sind in diesem Dokument offenbart. Die DE 44 00 071 A schlägt vor, pneumatische Leitungen ergänzend mit Leuchtmitteln auszustatten. Generic objects provide for integration of lighting in an etab-lit object of the sanitary area. For example, EP 0 446 365 A proposes to integrate an LED lighting in a shower head. Similarly, US 5 276 595 A proposes to equip a toilet lid with an LED lighting device. Meaningful principles, measures and features for power supply, regulation, control and sensor control are disclosed in this document. DE 44 00 071 A proposes to equip pneumatic lines additionally with bulbs.

BESCHREIBUNG DER ERFINDUNG UND VORTEILHAFTER MERKMALE DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION AND ADVANTAGEOUS CHARACTERISTICS
Duschkabinenstangen sind schon länger bekannt. So offenbaren die DE 7207925 U, die DE 30 48 047 A1 oder auch die DE 83 25 385 U typische Bauweisen. Die vorliegend vorgeschlagene Duschkabinenstange umfasst somit etablierte Bauformen und Ausbil dungsformen wie Vorhangstangen, Griffstangen sowie Stangen zur Anbringung und/o der Ausrichtung von Duschköpfen; die entsprechenden Verwendungen können einzeln oder auch in Kombination in den Komponenten der Stange vorgesehen sein. Montage möglichkeiten in Abhängigkeit der entsprechenden Zuglast sind gleichfalls etabliert und sind zum Beispiel in der DE 23 31 467 A1 veranschaulicht. Shower rods have been known for some time. For example, DE 7207925 U, DE 30 48 047 A1 or DE 83 25 385 U disclose typical construction methods. The presently proposed shower stall rod thus includes established designs and training forms such as curtain rods, handle bars and rods for attachment and / o the orientation of shower heads; the corresponding uses may be provided individually or in combination in the components of the rod. Mounting options depending on the corresponding tensile load are also established and are illustrated for example in DE 23 31 467 A1.
Trotz langjähriger Verwendung solcher Duschkabinenstangen als Zusatz oder Nachrüst satz, fehlt es im Markt an einer sinnvollen Kombination aus solch einer Duschkabinen stange mit einem integrierten Leuchtmittel. Mithin deckt der vorliegend entwickelte Ge genstand einen langjährigen und bis jetzt unerkannten Bedarf: Die mit integrierten Leuchtmitteln ausgerüstete Duschkabinenstange erlaubt sowohl eine einfache Nachrüs tung eines sanitären Bereichs und/oder Duschraums als auch eine sinnvolle und keinen zusätzlichen Platz verbrauchende Ausleuchtung im Sanitärbereich. Vorteilhaft umfasst das Leuchtmittel LED's als Leuchtmittel, besonders bevorzugt iden tische, preisgünstige LED's mit einer eingestellten Primärfarbe wie zum Beispiel Warm weiß, Kaltweiß, Abendrot, Waldgrün oder Morgenblau. Despite many years of use of such shower rods as an accessory or retrofit kit, there is a lack in the market for a useful combination of such a shower stall rod with an integrated light source. Thus, the object developed in this case covers a long-standing and until now unrecognized need: The shower rod equipped with integrated light bulbs allows both easy retrofitting of a sanitary area and / or shower room as well as sensible and no additional space consuming illumination in the sanitary area. Advantageously, the light source LED's as a light source, particularly preferably identical tables, inexpensive LED's with a set primary color such as warm white, cold white, sunset, forest green or morning blue.
Besonders vorteilhaft können mehrfarbige LED's dabei auf bestimmte Farben, passend zur individuellen, nutzerseitigen Raum-Ausgestaltung, mithin auf Farbtöne eingestellt und/oder eingeregelt werden. Vorteilhaft ist die Duschkabinenstange hierzu so ausge staltet, dass das Leuchtmittel mindestens eine auf verschiedene Lichtfarben einstellbare LED-Leuchtmittel-Baugruppe umfasst. Nutzerseitig wählbare Grundtöne erlauben es be sonders bevorzugt, bestimmte Raumbereiche zusätzlich zu erhellen und/oder dekorative Schlaglichter zu setzen. It is particularly advantageous for multicolor LEDs to be set and / or regulated for specific colors, matching the individual, user-side spatial configuration, and therefore for color shades. For this purpose, the shower stall bar is advantageously designed such that the illuminant comprises at least one LED illuminant assembly that is adjustable to different light colors. User-selectable basic tones allow it be particularly preferred to illuminate certain areas in addition to and / or set decorative highlights.
Bevorzugt umfasst die Duschkabinenstange mindestens eine Stromquelle, welche vor teilhaft ebenso integriert ist. Die mindestens eine Stromquelle ist ausgewählt aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Photovoltaikzelle, Akkumulator, Kondensator, hydrodynami schem Generator, Batterie, Thermo-Element, Dynamo, händisch betätigbarem Dynamo, kontaktlose Erregerspule mit anlegbarem Felderzeuger und separater Stromquelle. Be sonders vorteilhaft ist eine Kombination aus Stromspeicher, Stromerzeuger und Strom quelle vorgesehen, wodurch eine Notbeleuchtung bei Stromausfall stets über den Strom speicher gewährleistet ist. Preferably, the shower stall bar comprises at least one power source, which is also integrated before geous. The at least one power source is selected from the group consisting of photovoltaic cell, accumulator, condenser, hydrodynami cal generator, battery, thermocouple, dynamo, manually operable dynamo, contactless field coil with applicable field generator and separate power source. Be particularly advantageous is a combination of power storage, power generator and power source provided whereby an emergency lighting is always guaranteed memory in case of power failure via the power.
Bevorzugt umfasst die Duschkabinenstange ein einstückiges, durchsichtiges, rohrförmi ges Gehäuse. Solch ein Gehäuse lässt Licht von einem innenseitig angeordneten Leuchtmittel nahezu ungedämpft nach außen hin austreten und erlaubt eine komplette, eigenständige Ausleuchtung einer Duschkabine oder eines Sanitärbereichs. Preferably, the shower stall bar comprises a one-piece, transparent, rohrförmi ges housing. Such a housing allows light to escape from an inside arranged light bulbs almost undamped to the outside and allows a complete, independent illumination of a shower cubicle or a sanitary area.
Bevorzugt besteht das Gehäuse der Duschkabinenstange aus wasserdichtem, hitzebe ständigem Kunststoff mit außenseitiger, kratzfester und wasserabweisender Versiege lung. Eine kratzfeste Versiegelung mit hydrophober Außenfläche erhöht die Lebens dauer des Produkts und bietet ob der hydrophoben Ausrüstung langfristig eine sicher verfügbare Lichtabstrahlung, welche nicht durch Kalk- oder Wasserflecken beeinträchtigt wird. Preferably, the housing of the shower stall rod made of waterproof, hitzebe resistant plastic with outside, scratch-resistant and water-repellent Versiege ment. A scratch-resistant seal with a hydrophobic outer surface increases the life of the product and, in the long term, provides the hydrophobic finish with a readily available light emission that is not affected by limescale or water marks.
Bevorzugt ist in dem Gehäuse der Duschkabinenstange ein im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Länge des druchsichtigen Gehäuses erstreckter Streifen mit gleichmäßig da rauf verteilten LED-Leuchtmitteln angeordnet. Das erlaubt eine gleichmäßige und voll flächige Abstrahlung von Licht und vermag ein etabliertes Leuchtmittel wie zum Beispiel eine Warmlicht-Neonröhre vollständig zu ersetzen. Die stromsparenden LED's ermögli chen dies mit erheblich geringerem Stromverbrauch und können sogar über relativ kleine Stromspeicher für die übliche Nutzungszeit im sanitären Bereich eine konstante und zu verlässige Beleuchtungsfunktion bereitstellen. Preferably, in the housing of the shower stall rod, a strip extending substantially over the entire length of the transparent housing is arranged with LED bulbs distributed uniformly up there. This allows a uniform and full-surface radiation of light and can be an established light source such as completely replace a warm light neon tube. The energy-saving LED ermögli Chen this with significantly lower power consumption and can even provide relatively constant power storage for the usual usage time in the sanitary area a constant and reliable lighting function.
Bevorzugt sind die integrierten Leuchtmittel Steuer- und/oder regelbar, besonders bevor zugt zwischen mindestens zwei Emissions-Bereichen schaltbar, die Emissionsbereiche umfassend Emissionsbereiche aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Warmlicht, Kaltlicht, Ver schmutzungen anzeigendem UV-Blaulicht, Kaltweiß, Abendrot, Waldgrün, Morgenblau. Preferably, the integrated lighting means are controllable and / or controllable, especially before given to switchable between at least two emission areas, the emission areas comprising emission areas from the group consisting of warm light, cold light, pollution Ver displaying UV blue light, cold white, sunset, forest green, morning blue ,
Bevorzugt weist die Duschkabinenstange eine Baugruppe zur drahtlosen Steuerung, be vorzugt drahtlosen Steuerung und Regelung, auf. In besonders vorteilhafter Ausfüh rungsform erlaubt eine zugehörige und verschlüsselte Fernbedienung, alternativ per Mo biltelefon und Anwendungsprogramm per Passwort aufschaltbare Fernbedienung, das Programmieren und/oder Regeln der Leuchtmittel. Besonders bevorzugt erfolgt das Steuern und/oder Regelen unter Einbindung eines Bewegungssensors, wie es im tech nischen Bereich für abweichende Bad-Applikationen bereits etabliert ist. Preferably, the shower stall rod has an assembly for wireless control, preferably wireless control and regulation on. In a particularly advantageous Ausfüh tion form allows an associated and encrypted remote control, alternatively by Mo mobile phone and application program via password aufschaltbare remote control, the programming and / or rules of the bulbs. Particularly preferably, the control and / or regulation takes place with the involvement of a motion sensor, as has already been established in the technical field for deviating bath applications.
Bevorzugt sind an der Duschkabinenstange zumindest am außenseitig abschließenden Gehäuse optische Streu-Strukturen und/oder transluzent eingestellte Bereiche angeord net, welche das Licht der integrierten Leuchtmittel diffus flächig auskoppelnd ausgebildet sind. Diffus flächig auskoppelnde Flächen erzeugen eine gleichmäßige und nahezu Schlagschatten-freie Beleuchtung. Zudem ist ein Blendeffekt, der gerade bei hellen bis sehr hellen Punkt-LED's häufig auftreten kann, so sicher vermieden. On the shower stall bar, optical lattice structures and / or translucently set regions are preferably arranged on the shower stall bar, at least on the housing terminating on the outside, which are designed to couple out the light of the integrated light source in a diffusely planar manner. Diffuse surface coupling surfaces produce a uniform and almost shadow-free lighting. In addition, a glare effect, which can often occur especially with bright to very bright dot LEDs, so surely avoided.
Bevorzugt sind die integrierten Leuchtmittel spritzwassergeschützt in zumindest einem Abschnitt der Duschkabinenstange angeordnet. Eine Anordnung in Abschnitten erlaubt vorteilhaft das Ausleuchten bestimmter Bereiche, wie zum Beispiel des Fußbereichs bei Verwendung der Duschkabinenstange als vertikaler Haltegriff in einer Duschkabine. The integrated lamps are preferably arranged splash-proof in at least one section of the shower stall bar. An arrangement in sections advantageously allows the illumination of certain areas, such as the foot area when using the shower stall bar as a vertical handle in a shower cubicle.
Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich aus den Ausführungsbeispielen. Es versteht sich, dass die vorbeschriebenen, bevorzugten Merkmale, Vorteile und nachfolgenden Ausfüh rungsbeispiele nicht beschränkend aufzufassen sind. Vorteilhafte oder bevorzugte, zu sätzliche Merkmale und zusätzliche Merkmalskombinationen, wie sie in der Beschrei bung erläutert und im technischen Bereich durch Zitat erläutert und auch etabliert sind, können im Rahmen der unabhängigen Ansprüche im beanspruchten Gegenstand so wohl einzeln als auch abweichend kombiniert verwirklicht werden, ohne dass der Bereich der Erfindung verlassen würde. Further advantages emerge from the exemplary embodiments. It is understood that the above-described, preferred features, advantages and subsequent Ausfüh tion examples are not restrictive. Advantageous or preferred, additional features and additional combinations of features, as explained in the descrip tion and in the technical field explained by citation and are also established, can be realized within the scope of the independent claims in the claimed subject matter as well individually or deviating combined, without departing from the scope of the invention.
