Definitions
- the present invention relates to shower rails.
- the technical area can be roughly outlined with the use of illuminants in the sanitary area. 'Sanitary' includes both private bathrooms and toilets as well as larger shower, sauna and swimming pool installations.
- a shower stall rail with an integrated light source is proposed, the shower stall rail being mountable as a curtain holder and/or as a support rail.
- shower stall rods have been known for a long time. That's how they reveal DE 7207925 U , the DE 30 48 047 A1 or the DE 83 25 385 U typical construction methods.
- the shower stall rod proposed here thus includes established designs and forms of construction such as curtain rods, handle bars and rods for attaching and/or aligning shower heads; the corresponding uses can 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, for example, in DE 23 31 467 A1 illustrated.
- the shower stall rod equipped with integrated lamps allows both a simple retrofitting of a sanitary area and/or shower room and a sensible illumination in the sanitary area that does not take up any additional space.
- the lighting means comprises LEDs as lighting means, particularly preferably identical, inexpensive LEDs with a set primary color such as warm white, cold white, sunset red, forest green or morning blue.
- multi-colored LEDs can be set and/or adjusted to specific colors to match the individual, user-side room design, and therefore to color tones.
- the shower stall rail is advantageously designed in such a way that the light source comprises at least one LED light source assembly that can be set to different light colors.
- Basic tones that can be selected by the user make it particularly preferable to additionally illuminate certain areas of the room and/or to set decorative highlights.
- the shower stall rail preferably includes at least one power source, which is advantageously also integrated.
- the at least one power source is selected from the group consisting of a photovoltaic cell, accumulator, capacitor, hydrodynamic generator, battery, thermocouple, dynamo, manually operated dynamo, contactless excitation coil with attachable field generator and separate power source.
- a combination of power storage, power generator and power source is particularly advantageous, whereby emergency lighting is always guaranteed via the power storage in the event of a power failure.
- the shower rail includes a one-piece, transparent, tubular housing.
- a housing allows light from an internally arranged light source to escape to the outside almost undiminished and allows a complete, independent illumination of a shower cubicle or a sanitary area.
- the housing of the shower stall rail is preferably made of waterproof, heat-resistant plastic with an outside, scratch-resistant and water-repellent seal.
- a scratch-resistant seal with a hydrophobic outer surface increases the service life of the product and, thanks to the hydrophobic finish, offers reliable, long-term light emission that is not affected by limescale or water stains.
- a strip which extends essentially over the entire length of the transparent housing and has LED lighting means distributed evenly thereon, is arranged in the housing of the shower stall rail. This allows light to be emitted evenly and over the entire surface and is capable of using an established light source such as to completely replace a warm light neon tube.
- the energy-saving LEDs make this possible with significantly lower power consumption and can even provide a constant and reliable lighting function for the usual usage time in the sanitary area using relatively small power storage devices.
- the integrated light sources can preferably be controlled and/or regulated, particularly preferably switchable between at least two emission ranges, the emission ranges comprising emission ranges from the group consisting of warm light, cold light, UV blue light that indicates dirt, cold white, sunset red, forest green, morning blue.
- the shower stall rail preferably has an assembly for wireless control, preferably wireless control and regulation.
- an associated and encrypted remote control alternatively via mobile phone and application program via password, allows the programming and/or regulation of the lighting means. Controlling and/or regulating is particularly preferably carried out with the integration of a motion sensor, as is already established in the technical field for different bathroom applications.
- Optical scattering structures and/or translucent areas are preferably arranged on the shower stall rod, at least on the housing closing on the outside, which are designed to decouple the light of the integrated lamps in a diffuse, planar manner. Diffuse, two-dimensional decoupling surfaces produce an even lighting that is almost free of cast shadows. In addition, a glare effect, which can often occur with bright to very bright spot LEDs, is reliably avoided.
- the integrated lamps are preferably arranged in at least one section of the shower stall rail so that they are protected against splashing water.
- An arrangement in sections advantageously allows certain areas to be illuminated, such as the foot area when using the shower stall rail as a vertical grab handle in a shower stall.
- a shower stall rail has integrated lamps.
- the shower stall rod can be mounted as a curtain holder and/or as a support rod in the usual manner known from the field of shower stall rods and can be used as a handle and/or as a horizontal curtain holder.
- the integrated lamps combine this with a lighting function.
- the light source comprises at least one LED light source assembly that can be set to different light colors. At least one power source supplies electricity to the LED lamp assembly via a control and/or regulation module.
- the power source is selected from the group consisting of a photovoltaic cell, an accumulator, a capacitor, a hydrodynamic generator, a battery, a thermocouple, a dynamo, a manually operated dynamo, a contactless excitation coil with a field generator that can be applied, and a separate power source.
- a light source for the sanitary area comprises power storage devices, particularly preferably modular accumulators, in combination with a device for inductive charging, with the power storage devices being exchangeable and/or removable;
- Such an energy system can be used particularly advantageously in a group of corresponding devices and/or in a building technology system with smart home applications and IOT applications.
- the power source is preferably a combination of power source and storage unit, with the storage unit energizing emergency lighting when the power source dries up or fails, which on the one hand indicates the emergency power supply but on the other hand ensures emergency lighting which provides the respective user with sufficient illumination of the environment guaranteed.
- the shower rail includes a one-piece, clear, tubular housing made of clear plastic.
- the waterproof, heat-resistant plastic has a scratch-resistant and water-repellent siloxane-based seal on the outside.
- Arranged in the housing is a strip which extends essentially over the entire length of the rod and has LED lighting means distributed evenly thereon.
- the strip preferably consists of a multi-sided metal profile, which is rotated against gentle resistance by means of magnets and/or levers in the housing and aligned with the areas to be illuminated can.
- the integrated lamps can also be controlled and/or regulated and can particularly preferably be switched between at least three emission ranges, including warm light, cold light and UV blue light that indicates dirt.
- the shower stall rail advantageously includes an assembly for wireless control, preferably wireless control and regulation in a smart home network.
- the housing that closes on the outside can have optical scattering structures and/or translucent areas, at least in the directly visible sections, which are arranged to couple out the light of the integrated lamps in a diffuse, two-dimensional manner.
- the shower stall rail comprises a plastic housing which consists of a transparent, stable plastic that is water-repellent on the outside.
- a metal, longitudinally extending tubular profile with at least one groove is used as an endoskeleton in the housing for stabilization.
- LED illuminants are arranged at a uniform distance in the at least one groove.
- the LED lamps can be powered via an integrated power source, preferably replaceable batteries.
- the energization is preferably switched via an optical proximity sensor, preferably a proximity sensor with a coupled timer, which energizes the LEDs from the signal for the duration of a shower, for example for 10, 15 or 30 minutes.
- the remote control particularly preferably allows the control and/or regulation of RGB-capable LED assemblies.
- the shower stall rail can thus serve as a time indicator, which slowly and steadily switches from green to red in at least one section in order to indicate an ecological and/or previously paid usage period.
- the problem with the established sanitary assemblies with integrated lighting is that they do not allow a sanitary area to be easily retrofitted with a lighting function.
- the task was to overcome this disadvantage and to propose a device which meets the long-standing need.
- the solution is a shower stall bar with integrated lamps.
- such a device allows a sensible and extremely space-saving combination with the above-described light source function.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Duschkabinenstangen.The present invention relates to shower rails.
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 illuminants in the sanitary area. 'Sanitary' includes both private bathrooms and toilets as well as larger shower, sauna and swimming pool installations.
Das Be- und Aus-Leuchten von Becken, Wannen und Räumen ist hier schon länger Gegenstand von Forschung und Entwicklung. So offenbart die
Gattungsgemäße Gegenstände sehen eine Integration einer Beleuchtung in einen etablierten Gegenstand des sanitären Bereichs vor. So schlägt die
Gleichsinnige Innovationen neueren Datums sind in der
Nachteilig ist bei den gattungsgemäßen, etablierten Gegenständen und den neueren Innovationen, dass diese keine einfache Nachrüstbarkeit eines bestehenden Duschraums oder Sanitärraums vorsehen; die etablierten Vorrichtungen und Einrichtungen sehen stets eine spezifische, lokale Integration oder eben den kompletten Austausch ganzer Sanitär-Einrichtungen vor.The disadvantage of the generic, established objects and the newer innovations is that they cannot easily be retrofitted to an existing shower room or provide sanitary facilities; the established devices and facilities always provide for a specific, local integration or even the complete replacement of entire sanitary facilities.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war es daher, die Nachteile des Standes der Technik zu überwinden und ein Modul bereitzustellen, welches trotz integrierter Beleuchtung eine einfache Nachrüstbarkeit eines Sanitärbereiches bereitzustellen vermag.It was therefore the object of the present invention to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a module which, despite integrated lighting, is able to provide simple retrofitting of a sanitary area.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt gemäß der Merkmale der unabhängigen Ansprüche. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen sowie der nachfolgenden Beschreibung.This problem is solved according to the features of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments result from the dependent claims and the following description.
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Duschkabinenstange mit integriertem Leuchtmittel vorgeschlagen, wobei die Duschkabinenstange als Vorhanghalter und/oder als Haltestange montierbar ist.According to the invention, a shower stall rail with an integrated light source is proposed, the shower stall rail being mountable as a curtain holder and/or as a support rail.
Duschkabinenstangen sind schon länger bekannt. So offenbaren die
Trotz langjähriger Verwendung solcher Duschkabinenstangen als Zusatz oder Nachrüstsatz, fehlt es im Markt an einer sinnvollen Kombination aus solch einer Duschkabinenstange mit einem integrierten Leuchtmittel. Mithin deckt der vorliegend entwickelte Gegenstand einen langjährigen und bis jetzt unerkannten Bedarf: Die mit integrierten Leuchtmitteln ausgerüstete Duschkabinenstange erlaubt sowohl eine einfache Nachrüstung eines sanitären Bereichs und/oder Duschraums als auch eine sinnvolle und keinen zusätzlichen Platz verbrauchende Ausleuchtung im Sanitärbereich.Despite many years of use of such shower stall rails as an add-on or retrofit kit, there is a lack of a sensible combination of such a shower stall rail with an integrated light source on the market. The presently developed object therefore covers a long-standing and hitherto unrecognized need: the shower stall rod equipped with integrated lamps allows both a simple retrofitting of a sanitary area and/or shower room and a sensible illumination in the sanitary area that does not take up any additional space.
Bei der Erfindung umfasst das Leuchtmittel LED's als Leuchtmittel, besonders bevorzugt identische, preisgünstige LED's mit einer eingestellten Primärfarbe wie zum Beispiel Warmweiß, Kaltweiß, Abendrot, Waldgrün oder Morgenblau.In the case of the invention, the lighting means comprises LEDs as lighting means, particularly preferably identical, inexpensive LEDs with a set primary color such as warm white, cold white, sunset red, 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 ausgestaltet, dass das Leuchtmittel mindestens eine auf verschiedene Lichtfarben einstellbare LED-Leuchtmittel-Baugruppe umfasst. Nutzerseitig wählbare Grundtöne erlauben es besonders bevorzugt, bestimmte Raumbereiche zusätzlich zu erhellen und/oder dekorative Schlaglichter zu setzen.Particularly advantageously, multi-colored LEDs can be set and/or adjusted to specific colors to match the individual, user-side room design, and therefore to color tones. For this purpose, the shower stall rail is advantageously designed in such a way that the light source comprises at least one LED light source assembly that can be set to different light colors. Basic tones that can be selected by the user make it particularly preferable to additionally illuminate certain areas of the room and/or to set decorative highlights.
Bevorzugt umfasst die Duschkabinenstange mindestens eine Stromquelle, welche vorteilhaft ebenso integriert ist. Die mindestens eine Stromquelle ist ausgewählt aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Photovoltaikzelle, Akkumulator, Kondensator, hydrodynamischem Generator, Batterie, Thermo-Element, Dynamo, händisch betätigbarem Dynamo, kontaktlose Erregerspule mit anlegbarem Felderzeuger und separater Stromquelle. Besonders vorteilhaft ist eine Kombination aus Stromspeicher, Stromerzeuger und Stromquelle vorgesehen, wodurch eine Notbeleuchtung bei Stromausfall stets über den Stromspeicher gewährleistet ist.The shower stall rail preferably includes at least one power source, which is advantageously also integrated. The at least one power source is selected from the group consisting of a photovoltaic cell, accumulator, capacitor, hydrodynamic generator, battery, thermocouple, dynamo, manually operated dynamo, contactless excitation coil with attachable field generator and separate power source. A combination of power storage, power generator and power source is particularly advantageous, whereby emergency lighting is always guaranteed via the power storage in the event of a power failure.
Die Duschkabinenstange umfasst ein einstückiges, durchsichtiges, rohrförmiges 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.The shower rail includes a one-piece, transparent, tubular housing. Such a housing allows light from an internally arranged light source to escape to the outside almost undiminished and allows a complete, independent illumination of a shower cubicle or a sanitary area.
Bevorzugt besteht das Gehäuse der Duschkabinenstange aus wasserdichtem, hitzebeständigem Kunststoff mit außenseitiger, kratzfester und wasserabweisender Versiegelung. Eine kratzfeste Versiegelung mit hydrophober Außenfläche erhöht die Lebensdauer des Produkts und bietet ob der hydrophoben Ausrüstung langfristig eine sicher verfügbare Lichtabstrahlung, welche nicht durch Kalk- oder Wasserflecken beeinträchtigt wird.The housing of the shower stall rail is preferably made of waterproof, heat-resistant plastic with an outside, scratch-resistant and water-repellent seal. A scratch-resistant seal with a hydrophobic outer surface increases the service life of the product and, thanks to the hydrophobic finish, offers reliable, long-term light emission that is not affected by limescale or water stains.
Bei der Erfindung ist in dem Gehäuse der Duschkabinenstange ein im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Länge des druchsichtigen Gehäuses erstreckter Streifen mit gleichmäßig darauf verteilten LED-Leuchtmitteln angeordnet. Das erlaubt eine gleichmäßige und vollflächige Abstrahlung von Licht und vermag ein etabliertes Leuchtmittel wie zum Beispiel eine Warmlicht-Neonröhre vollständig zu ersetzen. Die stromsparenden LED's ermöglichen dies mit erheblich geringerem Stromverbrauch und können sogar über relativ kleine Stromspeicher für die übliche Nutzungszeit im sanitären Bereich eine konstante und zuverlässige Beleuchtungsfunktion bereitstellen.In the case of the invention, a strip, which extends essentially over the entire length of the transparent housing and has LED lighting means distributed evenly thereon, is arranged in the housing of the shower stall rail. This allows light to be emitted evenly and over the entire surface and is capable of using an established light source such as to completely replace a warm light neon tube. The energy-saving LEDs make this possible with significantly lower power consumption and can even provide a constant and reliable lighting function for the usual usage time in the sanitary area using relatively small power storage devices.
Bevorzugt sind die integrierten Leuchtmittel steuer- und/oder regelbar, besonders bevorzugt zwischen mindestens zwei Emissions-Bereichen schaltbar, die Emissionsbereiche umfassend Emissionsbereiche aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Warmlicht, Kaltlicht, Verschmutzungen anzeigendem UV-Blaulicht, Kaltweiß, Abendrot, Waldgrün, Morgenblau.The integrated light sources can preferably be controlled and/or regulated, particularly preferably switchable between at least two emission ranges, the emission ranges comprising emission ranges from the group consisting of warm light, cold light, UV blue light that indicates dirt, cold white, sunset red, forest green, morning blue.
Bevorzugt weist die Duschkabinenstange eine Baugruppe zur drahtlosen Steuerung, bevorzugt drahtlosen Steuerung und Regelung, auf. In besonders vorteilhafter Ausführungsform erlaubt eine zugehörige und verschlüsselte Fernbedienung, alternativ per Mobiltelefon 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 technischen Bereich für abweichende Bad-Applikationen bereits etabliert ist.The shower stall rail preferably has an assembly for wireless control, preferably wireless control and regulation. In a particularly advantageous embodiment, an associated and encrypted remote control, alternatively via mobile phone and application program via password, allows the programming and/or regulation of the lighting means. Controlling and/or regulating is particularly preferably carried out with the integration of a motion sensor, as is already established in the technical field for different bathroom applications.
Bevorzugt sind an der Duschkabinenstange zumindest am außenseitig abschließenden Gehäuse optische Streu-Strukturen und/oder transluzent eingestellte Bereiche angeordnet, 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.Optical scattering structures and/or translucent areas are preferably arranged on the shower stall rod, at least on the housing closing on the outside, which are designed to decouple the light of the integrated lamps in a diffuse, planar manner. Diffuse, two-dimensional decoupling surfaces produce an even lighting that is almost free of cast shadows. In addition, a glare effect, which can often occur with bright to very bright spot LEDs, is reliably 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 in at least one section of the shower stall rail so that they are protected against splashing water. An arrangement in sections advantageously allows certain areas to be illuminated, such as the foot area when using the shower stall rail as a vertical grab handle in a shower stall.
Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich aus den Ausführungsbeispielen. Es versteht sich, dass die vorbeschriebenen, bevorzugten Merkmale, Vorteile und nachfolgenden Ausführungsbeispiele nicht beschränkend aufzufassen sind. Vorteilhafte oder bevorzugte, zusätzliche Merkmale und zusätzliche Merkmalskombinationen, wie sie in der Beschreibung erläutert und im technischen Bereich durch Zitat erläutert und auch etabliert sind, können im Rahmen der unabhängigen Ansprüche im beanspruchten Gegenstand sowohl einzeln als auch abweichend kombiniert verwirklicht werden, ohne dass der Bereich der Erfindung verlassen würde.Further advantages result from the exemplary embodiments. It goes without saying that the preferred features, advantages and exemplary embodiments described above are not to be interpreted as restrictive. Advantageous or preferred additional features and additional feature combinations, as explained in the description and explained in the technical area by citation and also established, can be implemented within the scope of the independent claims in the claimed subject matter, both individually and in different combinations, without departing from the scope of the invention.
Nach der Erfindung weist eine Duschkabinenstange integrierte Leuchtmittel auf. Die Duschkabinenstange ist als Vorhanghalter und/oder als Haltestange in üblicher, aus dem Bereich der Duschkabinenstangen bekannter Weise, montierbar und kann als Griff und/oder als horizontale Vorhanghalterung Verwendung finden. Die integrierten Leuchtmittel kombinieren dies sinnvoll mit einer Beleuchtungsfunktion. Das Leuchtmittel umfasst mindestens eine auf verschiedene Lichtfarben einstellbare LED-Leuchtmittel-Baugruppe. Mindestens eine Stromquelle versorgt die LED-Leuchtmittelbaugruppe über ein Steuer- und/oder Regelmodul mit Elektrizität. Die Stromquelle ist ausgewählt aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Photovoltaikzelle, Akkumulator, Kondensator, hydrodynamischem Generator, Batterie, Thermo-Element, Dynamo, händisch betätigbarem Dynamo, kontaktlose Erregerspule mit anlegbarem Felderzeuger und separater Stromquelle. In bevorzugter Variante umfasst eine solche Lichtquelle für den sanitärbereich Stromspeicher, besonders bevorzugt modulare Akkumulatoren, in Kombination mit einer Einrichtung zur induktiven Aufladung, wobei die Stromspeicher austauschbar und/oder abnehmbar sind; besonders vorteilhaft kann solch ein Energie-System in einer Gruppe von entsprechenden Geräten und/oder in einem Haustechnik-System mit Smart-Home-Anwendungen sowie IOT-Anwendungen verwendbar sein. Bevorzugt handelt es sich bei der Stromquelle um eine Kombination aus Stromquelle und Speicher, wobei der Speicher bei Versiegen oder Versagen der Stromquelle eine Notbeleuchtung bestromt, welche einerseits die Notstrom-Versorgung anzeigt aber andererseits eine Notbeleuchtung sicherstellt, welche dem jeweiligen Nutzer eine ausreichende Ausleuchtung der Umgebung gewährleistet. Die Duschkabinenstange umfasst ein einstückiges, durchsichtiges, rohrförmiges Gehäuse, welches aus durchsichtigem Kunststoff besteht. Der wasserdichte, hitzebeständige Kunststoff ist außenseitig mit einer kratzfesten und wasserabweisenden Versiegelung auf Siloxan-Basis ausgerüstet. In dem Gehäuse ist ein im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Länge der Stange erstreckter Streifen mit gleichmäßig darauf verteilten LED-Leuchtmitteln angeordnet. Bevorzugt besteht der Streifen aus einem mehrseitigen Metallprofil, welches über Magnete und/oder Hebel im Gehäuse gegen sanften Widerstand gedreht und auf auszuleuchtende Bereiche ausgerichtet werden kann. Die integrierten Leuchtmittel sind ergänzend steuer- und/oder regelbar und können besonders bevorzugt zwischen mindestens drei Emissions-Bereichen, umfassend Warmlicht, Kaltlicht und Verschmutzungen anzeigendem UV-Blaulicht geschaltet werden. Vorteilhaft umfasst die Duschkabinenstange eine Baugruppe zur drahtlosen Steuerung, bevorzugt drahtlosen Steuerung und Regelung in einem Smart-Home-Verbund. Ergänzend kann das außenseitig abschließende Gehäuse zumindest in den direkt sichtbaren Abschnitten optische Streu-Strukturen und/oder transluzent eingestellte Bereiche aufweisen, welche das Licht der integrierten Leuchtmittel diffus flächig auskoppelnd angeordnet sind.According to the invention, a shower stall rail has integrated lamps. The shower stall rod can be mounted as a curtain holder and/or as a support rod in the usual manner known from the field of shower stall rods and can be used as a handle and/or as a horizontal curtain holder. The integrated lamps combine this with a lighting function. The light source comprises at least one LED light source assembly that can be set to different light colors. At least one power source supplies electricity to the LED lamp assembly via a control and/or regulation module. The power source is selected from the group consisting of a photovoltaic cell, an accumulator, a capacitor, a hydrodynamic generator, a battery, a thermocouple, a dynamo, a manually operated dynamo, a contactless excitation coil with a field generator that can be applied, and a separate power source. In a preferred variant, such a light source for the sanitary area comprises power storage devices, particularly preferably modular accumulators, in combination with a device for inductive charging, with the power storage devices being exchangeable and/or removable; Such an energy system can be used particularly advantageously in a group of corresponding devices and/or in a building technology system with smart home applications and IOT applications. The power source is preferably a combination of power source and storage unit, with the storage unit energizing emergency lighting when the power source dries up or fails, which on the one hand indicates the emergency power supply but on the other hand ensures emergency lighting which provides the respective user with sufficient illumination of the environment guaranteed. The shower rail includes a one-piece, clear, tubular housing made of clear plastic. The waterproof, heat-resistant plastic has a scratch-resistant and water-repellent siloxane-based seal on the outside. Arranged in the housing is a strip which extends essentially over the entire length of the rod and has LED lighting means distributed evenly thereon. The strip preferably consists of a multi-sided metal profile, which is rotated against gentle resistance by means of magnets and/or levers in the housing and aligned with the areas to be illuminated can. The integrated lamps can also be controlled and/or regulated and can particularly preferably be switched between at least three emission ranges, including warm light, cold light and UV blue light that indicates dirt. The shower stall rail advantageously includes an assembly for wireless control, preferably wireless control and regulation in a smart home network. In addition, the housing that closes on the outside can have optical scattering structures and/or translucent areas, at least in the directly visible sections, which are arranged to couple out the light of the integrated lamps in a diffuse, two-dimensional manner.
In vorteilhafter Ausführungsform umfasst die Duschkabinenstange ein Kunststoff-Gehäuse, welches aus einem durchsichtigen, stabilen und außenseitig wasserabweisenden Kunststoff besteht. Ein metallisches, längs erstrecktes Rohrprofil mit mindestens einer Nut ist stabilisierend als Endoskelett in das Gehäuse eingesetzt. In der mindestens einen Nut sind LED-Leuchtmittel in gleichmäßigem Abstand angeordnet. Die LED-Leuchtmittel sind über eine integrierte Stromquelle, bevorzugt austauschbare Batterien, bestrombar. Die Schaltung der Bestromung erfolgt bevorzugt über einen optischen Annäherungssensor, bevorzugt einen Annäherungssensor mit gekoppelter Zeitschaltuhr, welche die LED's ab Signal für die Dauer eines Duschvorganges, zum Beispiel für 10, 15 oder 30 Minuten, bestromt. Besonders bevorzugt erlaubt die Fernbedienung hierbei das Steuern und/oder Regeln von RGB-fähigen LED-Baugruppen. In besonders bevorzugter Ausführungsform kann die Duschkabinenstange so als Zeit-Indikator dienen, welcher zumindest in einem Abschnitt langsam und stetig von Grün auf Rot umschaltet, um so eine ökologische und/oder vorab bezahlte Nutzungsdauer anzuzeigen.In an advantageous embodiment, the shower stall rail comprises a plastic housing which consists of a transparent, stable plastic that is water-repellent on the outside. A metal, longitudinally extending tubular profile with at least one groove is used as an endoskeleton in the housing for stabilization. LED illuminants are arranged at a uniform distance in the at least one groove. The LED lamps can be powered via an integrated power source, preferably replaceable batteries. The energization is preferably switched via an optical proximity sensor, preferably a proximity sensor with a coupled timer, which energizes the LEDs from the signal for the duration of a shower, for example for 10, 15 or 30 minutes. The remote control particularly preferably allows the control and/or regulation of RGB-capable LED assemblies. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the shower stall rail can thus serve as a time indicator, which slowly and steadily switches from green to red in at least one section in order to indicate an ecological and/or previously paid usage period.
Problematisch ist bei den etablierten Sanitär-Baugruppen mit integrierter Beleuchtung, dass diese keine einfache Nachrüstbarkeit eines Sanitärbereichs mit einer Beleuchtungsfunktion ermöglichen.The problem with the established sanitary assemblies with integrated lighting is that they do not allow a sanitary area to be easily retrofitted with a lighting function.
Aufgabe war es, diesen Nachteil zu überwinden und eine Vorrichtung vorzuschlagen, welche dem langjährigen Bedarf gerecht wird.The task was to overcome this disadvantage and to propose a device which meets the long-standing need.
Die Lösung erfolgt mit einer Duschkabinenstange, welche integrierte Leuchtmittel aufweist.The solution is a shower stall bar with integrated lamps.
Gerade im Bereich der privaten Haushalts-Sanitärräume erlaubt eine solche Vorrichtung eine sinnvolle und extrem platzsparende Kombination mit der vorbeschriebenen Leuchtmittelfunktion. Vorteilhaft mit einer Stromquelle, einem Notstrom-Zwischenspeicher und einer Regelbaugruppe ergänzt, erhöht die vorliegend offenbarte Vorrichtung in dieser Verwendung zudem noch nutzerbezogen die Sicherheit und den Komfort.Especially in the area of private household sanitary rooms, such a device allows a sensible and extremely space-saving combination with the above-described light source function. Advantageously supplemented with a power source, an emergency power buffer store and a control module, the presently disclosed device in this use also increases user-related safety and comfort.
