Definitions
- the present invention relates to splash guard arrangement.
- the present invention pertains to a splash guard arrangement for a door.
- wet areas such as bathrooms, in buildings require careful ventilation in order to avoid problems in structures caused by excess humidity in these areas.
- the wet area is depressurized, so that replacement air is drawn through the gap to the wet area, instead of pushing humidity to dry areas.
- splash water entering the dry area under the door is unwanted and it might cause damages to hidden interior structure of buildings and to floor construction, especially a wood floor.
- Document DE 1659771 A1 discloses a door which will close absolutely hermetically without requiring any particularly complicated mechanism.
- the lower side of the door has an inverted U-channel.
- Another U-channel can be adjusted in the inverted channel in order to correct the "door length".
- Document EP 1498569 A1 discloses a door has a sealing edge with a seal. In the closed condition, the door drops over the seal that is enclosed front and back by curtain edges.
- the door seal has a number of breather holes that allow limited movement of air between the two sides of the closed door.
- EP1936097 A1 discloses a guide rail having a U-shaped cross-section, two sidewalls running almost parallel to each other and a fixed link for interconnecting the two sidewalls.
- a sealing element held in the guide rail, a sealing element seals a gap between a door and a floor or ceiling when a door is closed.
- an air channel stretches along the first sidewall, then along the fixed link and finally along the second sidewall.
- the objective is to at least ease the problems described hereinabove not satisfactorily solved by the known arrangements, and to provide a feasible splash guard arrangement arrangeable in a door enabling ventilation under the door.
- the aforesaid objective are achieved according to the present invention as claimed in claim 1.
- a splash guard arrangement arrangeable in an open space arranged in a door comprises an elastic member protruding from the open space for preventing splash of water from passing by the door, and at least one fixing means for holding the elastic member and for fixing the elastic member in the open space so that enabling ventilation via the open space.
- the fixing means comprise at least one pliable structure for adjusting the place of the fixing means in the open space.
- the advantage of this embodiment is to enable adjusting the height of the elastic member by adjusting the place of the fixing means in the open space.
- the fixing means comprise retaining means for retaining the fixing means in said open space.
- the fixing means may be able to be arranged in a right place in the open space of the door without a need to use any additional means for fixing it, such as glue.
- the arrangement further comprises a support member arrangeable in the open space, and in another embodiment, the member comprises retaining means for retaining the fixing means in the open space.
- the member may help arranging the fixing means in the open space and enabling easy adjustment of the height of the elastic member.
- the support member may prevent any splash water from getting touch with an inner material of the door.
- a door comprises the arrangement according to the present invention.
- the open space is arranged in the bottom part of the door. This embodiment is advantageous, because splash of water typically affect the bottom part of the door and floor level.
- the open space is arranged both in the bottom part and in the top part of the door. This embodiment may enable the assembling of the door both ways, i.e. for right and left-handedness.
- the open space in the top part of the door is covered with a covering means.
- This embodiment may prevent splash of water and/or moisture to get in in the open space that does not have the splash guard of the present invention.
- a method for arranging a splash guard in a door comprises at least the steps
- the arrangement may be cheap to manufacture, it may be durable and maintenance free.
- the arrangement may be easy to assemble and it may be possible to retrofit to a door.
- a number of refers herein to any positive integer starting from one (1), e.g. to one, two, or three.
- a plurality of refers herein to any positive integer starting from two (2), e.g. to two, three, or four.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a side view of the cross section of an embodiment of a splash guard arrangement in accordance with the present invention.
- the open space 102 is arranged in the bottom part of the door 104.
- the person skilled in the art understands that the thickness of the door sets limits to the width of said open space.
- a door with a thickness of 40 mm can be provided with about a 30 mm wide open space, for example, in order to leave enough material of the door on both long sidewalls of the opening, such as 5 mm, for example. This may ensure that the material around the open space will not be too easily damaged during transport and use.
- the length of the open space is related to the width of the door, so that neither end of the open space extends to the side ends of the door.
- both side ends have about 5 mm - 10 mm material, for example, and the open space is arranged between the side ends of the door.
- the height of the open space may vary, but in a preferable embodiment, the height is about 30 mm - 40 mm enabling sufficient air flow through the open space.
- the elastic member 106 can be made of various materials such as rubber or plastic, for example.
- the length of the elastic member corresponds the length of the open space or is slightly shorter, such as 1 mm - 3 mm.
- the height of the elastic member may vary, but in a preferable embodiment, it is about 30 mm - 40 mm, for example.
- the thickness of the elastic member is chosen to provide sufficient firmness to the elastic member, but not to hinder the elasticity of the elastic member. In an embodiment, the thickness of the elastic member is about 5 mm - 10 mm, for example.
- the fixing means 108 of the present invention can be implemented in various ways.
- the fixing means comprise pliable structures at the both sides of the elastic member for adjusting the place of the fixing means in the open space.
- the fixing means are made of a material enabling pliable structure of the fixing means, such as, but not limited to, plastic or metal, such as aluminium or steel, for example.
- the width of the fixing means may vary, but preferably it is about 20 mm - 30 mm.
- the number of fixing means in an open space may vary, but according to a preferable embodiment, the elastic member is fixed to an open space by using 2-3 fixing means for ensuring firm fixing of the elastic member in the open space, but leaving space between and/or around them for the airflow.
- the elastic member is preferably fixed in the open space such a way that there is about 10 mm - 20 mm space above it for ensuring airflow over the elastic member.
- the elastic member is fastened substantially in the middle of the fixing means.
- This embodiment ensures free airflow on both sides of the elastic member.
- the arrangement further comprises a support member, which is preferably made of a rigid material, such as aluminium, for example. The purpose of the support member is to ensure fastening of the elastic member to the fixing means.
- the fixing means comprise retaining means 110 for retaining the fixing means in the open space.
- the retaining means comprise a toothing structure for retaining the fixing means in the open space.
- the fixing means are fixed to the long sidewalls of the open space.

- the open space can be arranged in the door in many ways.
- the open space is arranged in a door mechanically by milling, cutting and/or shaping, for example.
- the door is manufactured by gluing one side or both sides a board made of a waterproof material, such as a plastic board, for example.
- the inner part of the door comprises profiles for reinforcing the door.
- the inner material is plastic, for example, enabling shattering of the door and recycling the material, when the door is removed from service.
- the inner material is a moisture-proof insulation board.
- the open space is arranged by selecting the size of the inner material so that the open space is formed either in the bottom side or both in the bottom side and in the top side of the door.
- the open space in the top part of said door is covered with a covering means.
- the covering means are a plastic part set to prevent splash water and/or moisture from getting in to the inner part of the door.
