Definitions
- the object of the invention falls within the technical field corresponding to home furnishings, specifically to the home furnishings sector.
- the present invention relates to a bathing structure that incorporates a gate that allows the use of a shower tray as a shower or as a bathtub when said gate opens or closes an access to said bathing structure.
- the shower is known in the state of the art as equipment for a bathroom, wherein the water falls on a subject, while same is standing and without producing an accumulation of water, which is directed directly to the drain of the bathroom where it is located.
- the action of showering is normally carried out in a bathtub or shower tray, which has a hose that can be oriented with the hands or a fixed portion above the head of the user, where there is a head that distributes the water in several jets.
- trays In shower trays, they are generally fixed above the head of the user or arranged along the entire body for hydromassage showers, and are generally protected by a glass or translucent methacrylate screen. Roll-up screens can also be used the sheet of which is usually made of polyester.
- the showers can be used in bathtubs, with a closed structure with a certain height, allowing a user to accumulate water for bathing in said closed structure in a position that is not necessarily standing, also while the user if sitting or lying down without additional elements such as benches.
- the present invention intends to solve the proposed problems by incorporating a gate into an elongated structure that facilitates access for people and allows changing from a shower configuration in a shower tray to a shower configuration in a bathtub, facilitating cleaning tasks for all types of people safely.
- the bathroom structure object of the invention is positioned on a bathroom surface and extended vertically, said surface being delimited by bathroom lateral walls and a rear wall.
- the bathroom structure provides a user with the use of a shower tray, located between said mentioned walls and positioned on the floor surface of the bathroom, as a shower or bathtub.
- Said bathroom structure comprises a frame equipped with a horizontal base that also rests on the surface of the bathroom and is located adjacent to the shower tray, between the lateral walls and facing the aforementioned rear wall.
- the frame is also made up of a series of vertical extensions, defined as the first, second and third vertical extension, which start respectively from one end, from the central area and from the opposite end of the aforementioned base.
- the structure object of the invention incorporates a vertical panel supported between the first vertical extension and the second vertical extension, the first vertical extension being higher than the second and third extension; and the invention also incorporates an access defined between the second vertical extension and the third vertical extension, which allows a user to enter the shower tray, delimited by the aforementioned structure object of the invention and the lateral and rear walls.
- the bathing structure is equipped with a gate located on the base and between the second and third vertical extension, coupled to one of the extensions and mobile with respect to said extensions, closing or opening the previously defined access.
- the structure acquires a configuration that allows a user to use the shower tray as a bathtub, producing said closure in a sealing manner, guaranteeing the tightness of the water accumulated on the shower tray.
- the bathing structure when the gate opens the access, has a configuration such that it allows a user to use the shower tray as a shower only, without the accumulation of water within the delimited bathing surface.
- the gate is mobile, preferably in an articulated and collapsible manner with respect to the second or third vertical extension about an axis of vertical rotation and is equipped with a lock that makes contact with the second or third vertical extension to ensure the closure and tightness when the bathing structure acquires a bathtub configuration.
- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the bathroom structure intended to be positioned on a surface of a bathroom and that facilitates a user the use of a shower tray as a shower or bathtub, comprising a frame (1) equipped with a horizontal base (2) intended to be located on the surface of the bathroom and adjacent to the shower tray comprising a first end (3), a second end (4) and a central area (5), a first vertical extension (6) that starts and extends in height from the first end (3) of the base (2), a second vertical extension (7) that starts and extends in height from the central area (5) of the base (2), and a third vertical extension (8) that starts and extends in height from the second end (4) of the base (2).
- the structure object of the invention includes a vertical panel (9) supported between the first vertical extension (6) and the second vertical extension (7), and an access (10) defined between the second vertical extension (7) and the third vertical extension (8) intended to facilitate the entry of a user to the shower tray.
- said bathroom structure comprises a gate (11) that is located on the base (2) and between the second and third vertical extensions (7, 8), said second and third vertical extensions (7, 8) being of less height that the first vertical extension (6), wherein the gate (11) is laterally coupled to one of said second or third vertical extensions (7, 8) and is mobile with respect to the second or third vertical extension (7, 8) sealing or opening the access (10), said gate (11) intended to allow a user to use the shower tray as a bathtub when the user closes the access (10) or to allow a user to use the shower tray as a shower when he opens the access (10).
- FIG. 1 a lateral view of the bathing structure is observed wherein the gate (11) opens and closes the access (10) in an articulated and collapsible manner with respect to the second or third extension (7, 8), so that when the access (10) is open, the shower tray can simply be used as a shower and when it is closed, it is used as a bathtub.
- the gate (11) comprises a lock that makes contact with the second or third vertical extension (7, 8) and that ensures the closure of the access (10).
