Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sanitary tub facility with a sanitary tub and a support arrangement for the sanitary tub, the sanitary tub having a tub rim with a C-shaped cross section and a lower edge.
  • the sanitary tub is preferably a shower tray.
  • a bottom edging is expedient for reasons of stability.
  • the C-shaped tub rim initially transitions with a first radius into a vertical section, with the lower edge then adjoining a second radius.
  • an enamelled sheet steel there is then also the advantage that the outer edge of the corresponding sheet metal blank is drawn inwards relative to the outer circumference of the sanitary tub and is thus protected. The risk of damage in the event of an impact is thus reduced.
  • a C-shaped bathtub rim with a lower edge corresponds to the usual design.
  • the height of the rim of the tub along the vertical section can be 32 mm, for example.
  • the lower edge has a length of between 5 and 15 mm, for example.
  • Generic sanitary tub devices in which the sanitary tub has the edge geometry described and is supported on a support arrangement are, for example, from DE 10 2009 037 904 B3 and DE 199 61 255 A1 known.
  • a pedestal is provided as a support arrangement
  • a one-piece foamed tub support made of polyurethane foam provided as a support assembly.
  • One-piece tub supports made of plastic, in particular hard foam, are also known from practice, on which the sanitary tub is placed during assembly.
  • the tub support must be precisely matched to the size and shape of the associated sanitary tub.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a sanitary tub facility that can be easily made in different sizes and has good functional properties
  • the support arrangement has several of each other includes separate moldings, which are used in the C-shaped tub rim and held there in a form-fitting manner.
  • profile strips can be made inexpensively from plastic, in particular hard foam, and are easy to handle. Incorrect positioning of the profile strips can be avoided in a particularly simple manner due to the form-fitting accommodation in the C-shaped tub rim. There is also the advantage that the profile strips are held solely by a form fit, with optional additional fixing by means of adhesive or the like not being ruled out. In many cases, however, the form-fitting fixation is sufficient to hold the profile strips securely.
  • the profile strips can be formed, for example, in a mold made of plastic, in particular a hard foam.
  • the mold only has to be adjusted accordingly.
  • a long mold can be provided with lateral borders or filling pieces in order to be able to form shorter moldings in it.
  • an extruded profile can also be produced for the formation of the profiled strips, from which the profiled strips are then cut off in the desired length.
  • an extruded profile can also be produced for the formation of the profiled strips, from which the profiled strips are then cut off in the desired length.
  • the profile strips can also be shortened later if required.
  • the profile strips are inserted into the C-shaped tub rim and held there in a form-fitting manner.
  • the profile strips extend downwards beyond the lower edge of the sanitary tub at the lower edge, in order to be able to carry and support the sanitary tub.
  • the profile strips can accordingly have an L-shape, with one leg of the L-shape being inserted into the C-shaped tub rim as the upper fastening section and the other leg protruding downwards over the lower edge as a foot section.
  • the upper fastening section in the unmounted state is oversized compared to a receiving space formed by the C-shaped tub rim.
  • the upper fastening section can then be compressed in such a way that the profile strips can be pushed into the receiving space of the C-shaped tub rim against resistance.
  • the form fit caused by the complementary cross-sectional shape is also supported by the elastic restoring forces.
  • the sanitary tub device according to the invention is intended in particular for flat shower trays which are to be installed with a low overall height.
  • the sanitary tub facility can be used, for example, in a modernization or renovation due to its small space requirement.
  • the base section of the profile strips preferably has a height of between 3 mm and 15 mm.
  • a central support can also be provided there. If a tub drain is off-center, such a center support can be formed, for example, by a substantially round support body. In the case of an embodiment of the sanitary tub with a central drain, on the other hand, the central support is to be configured in a U-shape in order to be able to support the area around the drain.
  • the profile strips are made of plastic, in particular hard foam, a certain sound-insulating effect is already achieved.
  • the profile strips have inserts made of a soundproofing material on their foot sections, which forms the lower contact surface of the foot sections.
  • a soundproofing material for example, strip-shaped or cylindrical buffer elements made of a special soundproofing material can be provided, which, for example, are cast into the profile strips during the manufacturing process or, alternatively, can be inserted into the profile strips later. Suitable materials are known, for example, under the brand name Regupol® .
  • the profile strips are initially provided and assembled separately from one another. Based on this, there are different configuration options for the support arrangement.
  • the support arrangement on the C-shaped tub rim only has the separately manufactured and mounted profile strips. Accordingly, the profile strips are not directly connected to one another even when assembled. Instead, free spaces remain between successive profile strips. This also means that there should be no sealing in the area of the profile strips. Sealing during assembly of the sanitary tub facility can be done, for example, with a sealing tape on the vertical section of the C-shaped tub rim. Correspondingly suitable sealing tapes and sealing elements are made, for example DE 299 05 152 U1 known.
  • the support arrangement includes additional corner pieces at the corners of the sanitary tub, which are inserted into the C-shaped tub rim.
  • the two legs of such a corner piece can correspond to the profile strips in their cross section.
  • 90° corner pieces are also used in the shower tray. These can be formed in a mold or formed in an upstream work step from blanks of the profile strips, which are mitred. This results in the special feature that the corner pieces are also inserted into the C-shaped tub rim. It follows from this that the corner pieces on the underside of the sanitary tub must first be offset in the direction of the center of the sanitary tub and then pushed outwards into the corner of the sanitary tub.
  • corner pieces border directly or at a small distance from the respective adjoining profile strips, it also becomes clear that the corner pieces must be installed in front of the profile strips, because otherwise there is not enough installation space at the corners of the sanitary tub for lateral insertion .
  • corner pieces can be connected to the respectively adjoining profile strips via connecting elements, for example connecting clips.
  • connecting elements for example connecting clips.
  • a frame is then formed from individual corner pieces and profile strips in a particularly advantageous manner, which is then held in a form-fitting manner as the entire frame and can no longer be separated from the sanitary tub without disassembling the frame. This significantly reduces the risk of incorrect installation. In particular, there is no risk of the profile strips being accidentally removed or even discarded.
  • the installation height is determined by the height of the profile strips.
  • a stepless readjustment of the height is usually not provided.
  • the optionally provided corner pieces and base strips are expediently made of plastic, in particular a hard foam. Preference is given to foams based on polystyrene, such as expanded polystyrene (EPS) and extruded polystyrene (XPS).
  • EPS expanded polystyrene
  • XPS extruded polystyrene
  • the height of the profile strips is preferably between 20 mm and 50 mm, while a range between 30 mm and 70 mm is expedient for the width.
  • the profile strips can either be pre-assembled or assembled only during the installation of the sanitary tub facility, pre-assembly at the factory being preferred.
  • the 1 shows a sanitary tub facility in a view from below.
  • the sanitary tub device comprises, on the one hand, a sanitary tub 1 in the form of a shower tray and a support arrangement made up of separate Profile strips 2, which support and carry the sanitary tub 1 in the assembled state.
  • the sanitary tub 1 has a tub rim 3 with a C-shaped cross section. Starting from an approximately horizontal mirror section 4, a vertical section 5 follows over a first radius. The vertical section 5 then merges into a second radius into a lower edge 6 .
  • this sanitary tub 1 is made of steel enamel.
  • the C-shaped configuration of the tub edge 3 results in the advantage that the edge of the sheet metal blank is drawn inwards by the lower edge 6 and is thus optimally protected.
  • the C-shaped structure of the tub rim 3 is also advantageous for reasons of stability.
  • the profile strips have an L-shape in the broadest sense.
  • the upper fastening section 7 is oversized in the unassembled state compared to a receiving space formed by the C-shaped tub rim 3 .
  • the upper attachment portion 7 is also in one elastically compressed to a certain extent, so that the resulting form fit is additionally supported by elastic restoring forces.
  • a central support 9 can also be provided as part of the support arrangement.
  • the 3 and 4 relate to a further development of the invention, in which additional elements made of a sound-insulating material 10 are provided based on an otherwise identical configuration.
  • Corresponding elements of a sound-insulating material 10 can, for example, be integrated directly during production of the profile strip 2 or the center support 9 .
  • the elements of the soundproofing material 10 can be cast in during the manufacturing process.
  • the sound-insulating material 10 then forms the only contact surfaces, resulting in optimal sound decoupling.
  • the figure 5 shows a further embodiment of the sanitary tub facility, wherein additional corner pieces 11 are provided at the corners of the sanitary tub 1, which are inserted into the C-shaped tub rim 3 in a form-fitting manner.
  • the corner pieces 11 each comprise two legs arranged at right angles to one another, the cross-sectional shape of the legs coinciding with the cross-sectional shape of the profile strips 2 .
  • each profile strip assigned to one longitudinal side of the sanitary tub 1 borders on a corner piece 11 at both of its ends.
  • the corner pieces 11 and the profile strips 2 are preferably matched to one another in such a way that a closed or essentially closed frame results in the assembled state. Since both the profile strips 2 and the corner pieces 11 are used in the C-shaped tub rim 3 with the lower edge 6, a predetermined sequence must be observed during assembly. Accordingly, the corner pieces 11 must first be inserted, in which case they are then additionally fixed in their position by mounting the profile strips 2 . If, according to a preferred embodiment, the profile strips 2 reach up to the corner pieces in the assembled state, the corner pieces 11 can no longer be moved inwards and removed.
  • the corner pieces 11 and the profile strips 2 can be connected, for example, by suitable connecting elements 12, in particular connecting clamps, so that the support structure formed in this way is secured against loss under all circumstances.
  • the design according to 1 and figure 5 show that the support arrangement on the C-shaped tub edge 3 can either only have profile strips 2 or can have a frame composed of various elements.
  • base strips 13 are provided, which are to be arranged under the profile strips 2 .
  • the base strips 13 can already be provided in the desired length or alternatively can be cut to size. It is also optional with regard to the base strips 13 possible to form a frame closed around the perimeter. Corner pieces that are not shown in detail can also be provided for the substructure strips 13 .
  • the 6 finally shows that the base strips 13 and the profile strips 2 can have a tongue and groove connection.
